In 1895, Marcel Berliet was one of the pioneers of the motor car before achieving fame with his lorries. His cars quickly impressed in major events like the Targa Florio and the Tourist Trophy. This 6-litre machine is similar to the winner of the 1908 Targa Bologna in the hands of the fir's test driver, Porporato.

There were a lot of things that captivated me about striking my magnesium fire starter onto plants, especially flowers like this lily. It feels like a very unique way to combine natural and unnatural, organic and inorganic. Nature has lightning of course, but nothing with small bright intense sparks like that of a fire starter. The way they bounce off the pedals, with amazing reliability and consistency, shocked me. That is to say, their bounce angles are very calculable, they don’t tend to fly off in random directions after an impact, they almost always bounce off at the expected angle. And the amount of bounces they do gives an insight into the speed and power they have. Another good indication of the speed they have is the way the camera captures their trails. The trails are totally straight, even between bounces, so they're going too fast for gravity to turn their path into an arc. I was really surprised by that. They do look fast when I see them, but I didn’t realize it was that fast.

 

There are also loads of interesting things happening in the air before they hit the flower. There's the main column of sparks which is just one piece of magnesium furiously burning as it falls. Then little pieces will explode outwards from it and those smaller pieces leave totally straight trails for the most part. They go for a bit and then taper, but then almost EVERY one has a little bulge, then tapers again. It looks like an arrowhead, and on the very tip of that it usually explodes again into smaller and more orange trails, all straight again, but then those taper off without a bulge or another explosion. The fact that nearly all of them do that is fascinating...they're all burning out in exactly the same way. I think that arrowhead-like bulge must be where they've burned out (and shrunk) to the point where the volume to surface area ratio hits a critical point. It then burns more and more intensely for a split second because there is so much surface area, then it must break apart because it's too weak to hold itself together. But after that first bulge, why does it taper off for a second before making its final explosion? Why doesn't it explode at that first bulge? And why don’t the last little pieces ever explode? Now and then they do actually, but very rarely.

 

And then there are the slowly falling larger pieces that leave flame-like trails, and some of them even have blue flame that you can see.

 

Some of the trails have very regular bumps to them, where you can tell it was spinning quickly as it fell.

 

It really is incredible how much you can learn about how magnesium burns by capturing it in a photo like these.

Saratoga Race Course, Saratoga Springs, New York

Me, Phil Edye, and Robert Mitchell, proudly stand before one of the few Holdens loaned by the local Hornsby Holden Dealership, for our two week Driver Education Course.

 

We were going to be tracked by Dr. Ian Henderson?? of the UNSW driver safety unit for years. I'm still alive, with an accident free record, apart from one little dingle from a spin-out on the Jenolan dirt road on a later caving trip in Mum's Standard.

www.flickr.com/photos/spelio/4654064075/ and a clean police record!!

 

We were taught there are no such things as "accidents"..

 

Always be in the right gear at the right place at the right speed at the right time! RMLAID

 

See also "Car Driving as an Art" by SCH Davis of the Autocar. and

"Roadcraft" The Police Drivers' Manual" by HM stationary Office

both presented to me by Eric T. Izard for "Highest marks for Driver Education Theory"

I must not have been as good at the practical, they didn't teach fast driving on winding mountain dirt roads to Jenolan Caves!!

 

Then I got a Beetle and learnt all about oversteer on gravel roads, on many caving trips around NSW and WA.

 

An article I cut out from the Canberra Times of 6-3-85

Driving Tip of the Week

 

A defensive driver is one who drives in a manner to prevent accidents, regardless of other drivers' faulty driving or non-compliance with traffic laws; one who is careful not to commit any driving errors himself and makes makes allowances for the lack of skill or judgement, or for an improper attitude on the part of another driver, one that does not allow hazards of weather, road conditions, absence of signs or signals to involve him in a collision or dangerous situation.

A defensive driver is prepared for the unexpected at intersections, from parked cars, where reversing, sudden stops by others or darting pedestrians. He is not caught in that last-second futile attempt to avoid an accident. He has a plan for his own and others' safety. This plan involves the ever-changing situations faced on the road.

He learns to overcome personal inadequacies and those of the vehicle. He studies the environment for hazards that cannot be eliminated, but which must be compensated for.

A defensive driver can arrive at a destination having experienced the minimum number of incidents.

 

Paul Glover, Motoring Writer in the Canberra Times

also wrote an article titled....

 

"No such thing as an accident"

 

Is there such a thing as a road accident?

Not a crash, or a collision, or an impact, or a head-on, but a genuine accident. An incident, perhaps fatal, which qualifies as a pure accident.

The sort of event where no-one is really to blame, and where fate or luck or whatever is the only explanation for a crazy out-of-kilter happening....

He goes on to explain why the road safety experts don't think so....

 

I wish the the press and NRMA would stop calling them accidents...

Of course the very first dragonfly I see this year I'm able get a shot of would land on the walkway right in front of me instead of the gazillion plants and flowers growing all around.

 

But not to be deterred, I got down on one knee and got as close as possible before he decided the camera was just a tad too close and took off.

I am so sorry that I haven't been posting or visiting much recently - life is a bit hectic at the moment. I hope it will be more back to normal in a couple of weeks.

 

I couldn't resist the lure of the Scottish Day in the Life - the feast of St Margaret - challenge today though - it was so lovely to get out at lunchtime in the sunlight. I seem to live life in darkness at the moment - next week sunset is before 4pm. :(

 

OK - I can't find a Queen Margaret link for this one.

 

I like the way they plant trees on golf courses - they obviously have never heard of the planting in 3s rule.
