I must tell you this before we move on to matters which have occurred in the village recently.🏡🏡🏡
Just before the lockdown a gentleman knocked at the door to which Horace answered dressed in his butlers outfit (come on what’s strange about this, you would not want to see Horace in the buff) this gentleman asked Horace if he would like to make a donation towards a new community swimming pool being built in a neighbouring parish, so Horace scuttled off and returned with a glass of water.🚰💧🏊♂️🏊♀️
Where were we, yes as has been reported previously, our village is known for its community spirit, some residents have more spirit than others, it just depends on the size of their drinks cabinet.🍷🍷🍷
Though a small village there are many organisations within it, such as, the runner bean growing society, the ladies exhibition drinking team, and of course the newly formed botty coughing club who were going out on tour in 2020, so the lockdown has come as a bit of a blow to them.🍺🍷🍺💨💨💨
However, one of the newer organisations is the bee keeping club who’s Honorary Secretary is Tizzy Talskiddy a founder member of the exhibition drinking team, so as you can imagine, alcohol runs in her veins.🐝🐝🐝
Tizzy felt in these times of lockdown that of a Saturday evening, using the miracles of technology such as Skype, the bee keeping club could hold an on line yard of ale drinking competition (this could get messy)📡⌨️💻
Most members of the bee keeping club are quite extravert so it will come as no surprise they keep quite a few gallons of beer tucked away at home for a rainy day, so they had plenty of ammunition in order to participate in this event.😜🍺🍺🍺
You may be asking, what would be used for the yard glass, as luck would have it Nancy Nancarrow (of Reliant Robin fame) just happens to do a bit of glass blowing on the side and in recognition of the bee keeping club being set up, she made every member a yard glass and engraved their name into it.🚙🍹🍸
I can hear you all saying who would go first for timing purposes etc, well Agnes Penrose (Walter’s wife) had thought of this and had arranged for Horace’s dog Nipper to load up his wheelbarrow with tins of beer and deliver a can and place on each club members driveway.🐶
What the competitors had not realised was that Agnes had vigorously shaken one of the cans, everyone was asked to open their tins together on Skype, you guessed it whoever got sprayed in beer had to go first. 💦💦💦💦💦
You must all try this one night with your family and friends on line, it really is good fun and gets everyone revved up for the evening in these abnormal times.
“Mrs P have you put extra washing powder on the shopping list”.😂😂😂
I will leave you with this thought, Horace wants to do his bit in order to protect the ozone layer. He has decided to stop using spray on deodorant, and bought himself one of the old fashion deodorant sticks. He read the instructions which said “remove cap and push up bottom”.🙈
Thank you so much for looking at my photographs, the comments and banter you leave are so appreciated. Take care and have a lovely weekend.
🍺🍺🍺🍷🍷🍷🐎🐷💃😎😂😂😂

He flies because I shoot,
but I have trouble covering miles, I don't have time to say hello, OH sorry..!
Il vole parce que je tire,
mais j'ai du mal à parcourir des kilomètres, je n'ai pas le temps de dire bonjour, OH désolé..!

Photos from the Mid-CT Photography Meetup Group photo shoot at the FIRST Robotics Competition at the Convention Center in Hartford, Connecticut.
I've been digging into the film archives again. This is a scan of a 35mm colour slide taken during one of the competition days at the Burnie Surf Life-saving club on the north coast of Tasmania, Australia. Taken sometime between 2005 and 2009 on a custom built RBT 3D stereo 35mm camera. Scanned using my Samsung A51 phone camera. For those interested in old and unusual cameras, I will endeavour to post some shots of my various old and newer 3D cameras themselves soon.
There's a jr surfing competition in town right now. These youth are very good! I decided to play with a slower shutter speed to see if I could capture speed and intensity. I'm on the fence but this is one that I currently like. I'm not sure if this surfer has been competing, this was taken after the surf competition had wrapped up for the day.

Very well done my friend! This is a great retouch of this photo. I love the light, the nice details, the great sky this is awesome! It is very pleasing to the eyes and it definitely sets the mood.
It was hard for me to only pic one because many of you did great! I will do another competition and I hope you will be part of it. Thanks for all the people who played the game and I hope you had fun retouching this photos.
Have a beautiful day my friends! :-)
Another perfect night to watch the fireworks over the Ottawa River. Saturday night was Portugal's show and it was a beautiful display of color and sparkles. This is the view from behind the Supreme Court. I am glad I don't have to decide who is the winner.

Even in "bear paradise," mother Brown Bear has it tough. She caught a big salmon and began munching on it - but the gulls and her own cub didn't let her enjoy it in peace. The birds were smart enough to wait for the scraps, but a few times the cubs teamed up: one distracted her while the other snatched a fish right out from under her. Here the male cub started howling but mom didn't fall for it. Low tide on The Cook Inlet, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

1) OK, how many satellite dishes are wholly or partly visible?
2) How many 'live' humans are in the picture?
3) How many dummy humans are visible in the photo?
4) How many windows...................No. Forget it. There's no prize anyway
Covid put paid to Grand Central's entry in to the West Coast competition, which was a shame. It means we're stuck with Avanti...

The event continues with an archery competition. The targets and the cup for the winner are located on the staircase in front of the Cathedral.
10 minutes of clear skie.
This is the time that has been given to me to realize this shot. 10 minutes to realize an idea germinated in my head a few week ago. Nothing has been simple.
At first I spent some time to do research on the Internet and detailed maps to locate this little hidden place. Next came to locate directly on the coast for a final location.
This done, I went back at night last weekend and waited three hours, sometimes under the rain, waiting for a possible clear skie …
It lasted 10 minutes, half an hour before moonrise!

The female closest to me did all the work. She used her sensitive antennae to locate a sawfly larva inside the tree trunk. She carefully calculated the exact location to drill into the wood to reach the larva, paralyze it and deliver an egg to it. She is in the drilling stage here. The 2nd female behind her is hoping to harass her enough for her to give up & leave. That way the 2nd female can use the existing hole and deliver her own egg. I read the females will duel with their antennae sometimes when competing for the same egg host. This explains why there were several females on the same tree trunk. Some were drilling into the wood and others were harassing the drilling ones.
