When taking photos of the partially frozen Little Angelesy Lake this morning I found this compass rose. It is in the footpath at the western end of the lake. A Google search has so far failed to find out any information about it. I just like the way it points north towards the far end of Scotland (Rose Ness is at the south eastern end of Orkney mainland) and south to Capetown and then to a local bonfire!
Best viewed in Large.
This silly compass
Shows South instead of North
But if you let it
Will show you what you are looking for...

I'd never been too happy with shots I took of this wildflower from the sunflower family. There were only three of these flowers out, and I got the idea to shoot one of them with a small, white cloud in the background. I like this one a lot better than my previous efforts..... The background can make so much difference in macro shots....
Compass plant contains a resinous sap that was used by Native Americans as a chewing gum. Some tribes burned the dried roots to ward off lightening during storms. They believed that lightening occurred more frequently where compass plant grew, and they would not camp in those locations. The name "compass plant" alludes to the tendency for basal leaves of plants to align their edges north and south.

The EC-130H Compass Call is an airborne tactical weapon system using a heavily modified version of the C-130 Hercules airframe. The system disrupts enemy command and control communications and limits adversary coordination essential for enemy force management. The Compass Call system employs offensive counter-information and electronic attack (or EA) capabilities in support of U.S. and Coalition tactical air, surface, and special operations forces. The EC-130H, EA-6B or EA-18G, and F-16CJ, form the Suppression of Enemy Air Defense (SEAD) triad. Programmed upgrades have expanded its mission by procuring a secondary EA capability against early warning and acquisition radars. The EC-130H continuously tests new capabilities and tactics to respond to emerging threats and requests from combatant commanders.
