just to stop the boats drifting away when the tide returns

Shackles, chains, cuffs, restraints, all are used on common crminals or people that are dangerous to themselves or others. Why then would they be used otherwise...smacks of irony to me.

This is the chain attached to the rusty padlock.

It's been put there by the owner of the land to stop people parking as its by the local Station.

1849 Chain Bridge and the 1905 St. Stephen's Basilica in the back.

 

This was taken near the Budapest Castle Hill Funicular. The funicular runs till 21:00 hours in winter and is €4 return (Feb 2018). You can also take the stairs and that will take about 15 min or so. The castle grounds are open 24/7. There was nobody around at the time I was there and you can take some nice shots of the bridges and the buildings on Pest.

I composed this image as a response to my ongoing self-challenge: "Construct a creative image of a common household object." This photograph is of water running down a Rain Chain, and splashing on a hard surface. I cropped and then heightened some colour, and flipped the image, but otherwise didn't edit the photograph.

 

Originating from Japan, rain chains are artistic alternatives to traditional downspouts. They are essentially a series of decorative cups or shapes chained together, which guide rainwater from roof gutters down to the ground. When it rains, the water cascades down the chain to create a beautiful waterfall effect.

 

Rain chains are an environmentally conscious choice for rainwater management. By guiding rainwater directly into the ground, a barrel or a garden, they reduce the amount of water that ends up in storm drains, lessening the strain on local water treatment facilities. As an added bonus, rain chains are often made from recycled materials and contribute to a circular economy and reduced environmental impact.

 

I have created a Flickr Album entitled "At Home Creatives" where a selection of similarly-themed photographs will be found. I invite you to visit and I hope you enjoy.

  

In the tunnels under Central Station in Sydney are loads of historic artefacts incl this chain in a cell. What history it could tell

1849 375m long Széchenyi Chain Bridge over the Dunabe river which takes you from Buda to Pest or vice versa.

 

This was in the Winter of 2018 and was a great trip to Budapest. I can stil remember this outing at night because it was cold and I was walking for hours taking pictures and I had my tripod on me and it was just so quiet in the city. I was staying in a beautiful hotel in a very old building right next to the Liberty Bridge. I see it still exists, it's called The Butterfly Home. Friendly people, beautiful city... great city trip.

 

European city trips in winter are nice. Less crowds, lower prices and I don't mind the cold. I'm thinking about going the Bucharest this winter.

Small details to be find on the streets.

I used a 45mm lens from Olympus. This focal lens (equal to 90mm in a full frame system) and big aperture help to created a small deep of field.

Markarian's Chain

  

Markarian's Chain is a stretch of galaxies that forms part of the Virgo Cluster. When viewed from Earth, the galaxies lie along a smoothly curved line. It was named after the Armenian astrophysicist, Benjamin Markarian, who discovered their common motion in the early 1960s. Member galaxies include M84 (NGC 4374), M86 (NGC 4406), NGC 4477, NGC 4473, NGC 4461, NGC 4458, NGC 4438 and NGC 4435. Near the center there appear the pair of interacting galaxies NGC 4438 and NGC 4435, about 50 million light-years away, known to some as Markarian's Eyes.At least seven galaxies in the chain appear to move coherently, although others appear to be superposed by chance. Six of the points on the chain can be marked by galaxies. The other two points are pairs of galaxies

Well it's been ten years and a thousand tears

And look at the mess I'm in

A broken nose and a broken heart,

An empty bottle of gin

Well I sit and I pray

In my broken down Chevrolet

While I'm singin' to myself

There's got to be another way...

Magical Palm Trees in Paradise - Coastal State Road A1A - 11/25/22

 

My favorite "sunrise in paradise" location on Key West. These palms are featured on Jimmy Buffett's A1A album, and the back cover is about 50 yards north of here. While he lived here this was a favorite spot of his and he wrote a few songs here. Have been attempting to get the best shot of these palms for many years. I'M STILL TRYING!
