…..given to me by my maternal grandparents on my first birthday.

 

Have a good week, everyone!

 

HMM!

This handsome, powerful dog has an owner and looked healthy, we are working hard to try to convince owners not to chain their dogs.

Experimenting with a new lens last year. I must use it more.

Perhaps the city and bridge is chained to the bollard?

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.

  

Man was born free, and he is everywhere in chains.

A locked portal is one of the oldest ways of keeping an area safe and secure. This lock has been guarding the north-east entrance to a silk factory long after it has been abandoned and forgotten.

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.

Thanks a lot.

LaCrosse County Landfill Trail

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

 

The ONLY reason why this gives me Resident Evil 7 vibes is because the plate was taken from Medieval Fantasy. Who made a very close replica to the Baker Family dinner table. ♡

Still, nothing has changed.

Do we eat where we shit now?

It's sick and deranged.

Now our smiles bring cancer.

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.

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

My second picture of my "Enlightened" - Series.

From just below the north wall of Mangart, one has nice views on Velika Ponca / Ponza Grande and the chain southwards. Also the ascent route on the ridge is nicely seen. It goes from the hut (seen below) by a side ridge, across the ravine and then branches.

Another from the set I took of a chain bracelet. Not sure which I prefer.

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...

bike chained to a bike chain

#noise and slience

A heavy chain suspended from our Yew tree. We inherited it when we moved in. I suspect it was used in some kind of paint spraying operation.
