The Compasses, Beveley, on what was the old Roman road, Watling Street. Now a quiet backwater position.
Lucky enough to visit the original inspiration in person at the hotel Cuq en Terrasses near Toulouse. You can see that I made the project a little more colorful than the original.
i will use this for a visual metaphor one day. for something. im not sure what exactly... maybe it could be a visual metaphor for how I'm unsure of what this could be a visual metaphor for. no, no... but it could be a metaphor for my thinking (but not exactly being sure) it could be a metaphor for how I am unsure of what this could be a visual metaphor for but then the later being more appropriate would render the former more appropriate..... no.

This compass rose was in the entry way to my favorite English-language bookstore (since closed), Maruzen.
A profile of a Compass soil. Compass soils are moderately well drained and are on summits of ridges and high stream terraces. They have an argillic horizon of brownish yellow sandy loam and sandy clay loam. The lower part of the argillic horizon has masses of reddish, nodular plinthite and has grayish iron depletions. (Soil Survey of Crenshaw County, Alabama)
The Compass series consists of very deep, moderately well drained, moderately slowly permeable soils on broad uplands and sloping side slopes that lead to drainageways in the coastal plain. They formed in thick loamy and clayey marine sediments. Near the type location, the mean annual temperature is about 68 degrees F., and the mean annual precipitation is about 56 inches. Slopes range from 0 to 8 percent.
TAXONOMIC CLASS: Coarse-loamy, siliceous, subactive, thermic Plinthic Paleudults
Solum thickness ranges from 60 to more than 80 inches. Reaction is very strongly acid or strongly acid throughout except where the surface has been limed. Depth to horizons containing 5 percent or more plinthite ranges from 30 to 50 inches. Content of ironstone nodules ranges from 0 to 5 percent in the A and upper Bt horizons. Depth to the B2t horizons ranges primarily from 40 to 60 inches but as deep as 80 inches in some pedons. These horizons are considered diagnostic for the series.
USE AND VEGETATION: Most areas of Compass soils are in native vegetation. A few small areas are cleared and planted to peanuts, corn, soybeans, and improved pasture grasses. The native vegetation consists of longleaf pine, slash pine, white oak, red oak, laurel oak, water oak, persimmon, sweetgum, gallberry, waxmyrtle, huckleberry, greenbriers, blackberries, and pineland threeawn.
DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT: Northwest Florida and Alabama. The series is of moderate known extent.

My Compass
Windblown,
Sea-tossed
Accident of birth,
The compass pulls me
Still and steady,
Exerts a force I cannot
Deny.
Good or ill,
Richer or poorer,
In sickness or in health;
It is a marriage made
Not in heaven, but
History.
(I had actually planned to continue my Gettysburg photos today, but - like the compass - I was pulled in a different direction. Or perhaps it is not so different after all.)

This week's theme was: E is for East
The old compass we used to use for geological mapping.
This small compass features a polarized needle, degree indications, as well as eight major points.
All this in a inch and a quarter, it's the perfect, light weight tool you'll need to romp around the woods, or the even more foreign huge cities.
