"Kallo is a beacon Mäntyluoto (Pori, Finland) front of the Kallo on the island lighthouse.
First lighthouse of the Kallo on the island was erected in 1884. First lighthouse fog signaling equipment was from 1901 from hand-to-use Hansen's sirens.
The current hardware elements assembled octagonal lighthouse tower and the splendor of wood on the side of the nurse home was built in 1903.
In 1906, the manual was replaced by a ball fog siren engines and compressors working with a siren, which was built in a separate machine protection. Fog horn was seven meters long and its jaw was three meters in diameter.
Lighthouse had two separate overlapping light device, which were identified by the differing red-white flashing lights. Light System was first amended on gas, and then an electric in the 1930s, and also the fog signal was replaced by electric equipment nautofonilla.
Cranial extension of the lighthouse and the red splendor of wooden housing is a Finnish nurse photographed lighthouses, the lighthouse Marjaniemi addition, it is the only lighthouse in which where you can drive a car."

Magnificent Frigatebird ~ (Fregata magnificens)
"In the unlikely event of a water landing, your throat pouch can be used as a flotation device".
I always wondered how much the inflated throat pouch got in the way when these birds come down for a drink.
Thanks for visiting!
"What to ourselves in passion we propose,
The passion ending, doth the purpose lose.
The violence of either grief or joy
Their own enactures with themselves destroy:
Where joy most revels, grief doth most lament;
Grief joys, joy grieves, on slender accident.
This world is not for aye, not 'tis not strange
That even our loves should with our fortunes change;
For 'tis a question left us yet to prove,
Whether love lead fortune, or else fortune love.
The great man down, you mark his favorite flies;
The poor advanc'd makes friends of enemies.
And hitherto doth love on fortune tend;
For who not needs shall never lack a friend,
And who in want a hollow friend doth try,
Directly seasons him his enemy.
But, orderly to end where I begun,
Our wills and fates do so contrary run
That our devices still are overthrown;
Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own"
A few years ago, I was a Quality Engineer for a medical device manufacturer.
We hired a new Quality Engineer, Jim.
When he arrived for his first day of work in his 1968 or 69 Karmann Ghia, almost the same color as my 1970 MG BGT, I knew we were going to hit it off.

What I enjoyed in this moment was how the people stepped back in time for a few hours to experience a gathering of people with very little modern technology in sight. The weather was like a traditional one with huge flakes of snow coming down. There was a warm fire to keep us cozy while waiting for a ride on the horse drawn sleigh. But mainly I saw people engaged with each other or watching the activities going on around them. However you celebrate the holiday season, I hope you engage with people around you in real time and leave those "devices" only for capturing the good times around you in photographs!

It's a rare occasion for me to go out in a storm by myself but this May night, it had to be that way. Jon had gotten called out for work so I was left to my own devices. As you can tell, I am not smart enough to not stand in the middle of the highway for long exposure photography. Lucky for me, traffic was pretty much non-existent at this time of night (after midnight).
Lightning photography has been a struggle for me this year.

IED, improvised explosive device , are modern soldiers worst nightmare.
By the end of 2007 they have been responsible for at least 64% of Coalition deaths in Iraq.
Here is a picture of us special forces targeted by an ied during a night mission in the afghan's desert (yeah it's not in the snow). I keep exploring in the live explosions area, made with bengal fire. You stick several together, and you should get a big blow.
A big thanks to Tiny Tactical and their amazing gear to make this one possible. www.tinytactical.com
Be sure I will do some more modern military pictures !
This planet seems good. One species seem to be so populous they have infiltrated every continent. They do have some rudimentary language skills but their mathematic ability is so basic they would never be considered an intelligent species. Atmosphere is very similar to ours with minimal terra and bioforming needed making it cheap to colonize.
The fingers quickly tapped the device sending a communication to corporate headquarters that they could apply to the commission to colonize earth with a high degree of probability of being approved.
Within a decade the ships started arriving. Humans objected to being colonized and threw every nuclear weapon they could scrap up. The colonizers retreated back to orbit, baffled by a species intelligent enough to create a bomb that could destroy the atmosphere and stupid enough to deploy it. The colonizers requested equipment to cleanse the atmosphere which was an extra expense. By the time they received approval and the equipment, all life forms on earth were dead except for cockroaches.
The colony shipped in fauna and flora from their original planet. It was much better really. Normally it was very difficult to get permission to make a planet exactly like home. There were groups that fought for planetary diversity but really it wasn't the colonizers' fault the original species killed themselves and almost everything else.
No one was happy about the cockroaches tho. Not even the groups for planetary diversity as cockroaches spread quickly across the galaxies once a few managed to get aboard ships. Major funding was approved to eradicate them. Nothing worked. The cockroaches kept surviving and coming back. Very irritating.

Note: I added texture and the aqua lighting on the right through Photoshop. For the texture, I used NightCafe to create an image with two planets on one layer and then used the SoftLight filter in PS at 40% opacity. The aqua lighting I brushed two circles of aqua, then Guassian Filter to spread them out, then Vivid Light filters at differing opacity for each circle.
This is my original raw picture from SL
The interior of the 45 meter (147 ft) wide dome of the Il Duomo di Firenze (Florence Cathedral) features a sprawling mosaic decoration of The Last Judgment. Started in 1568 by Giorgio Vasari and Federico Zuccari, and several other artists, it took 11 years to finish. The upper portion near the lantern gives the illusion of three-dimensional imagery, incredibly impressive considering that it is a 430-year-old work of art.
Florence Cathedral is the main church of Florence, and is one of the largest in Italy. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You can climb the Duomo; I counted 462 steps, but supposedly there are 467, and it’s well worth the effort. Mid-way up there is a gallery where you can walk around and see this amazing fresco a lot closer than from the cathedral floor.
For this photo, I couldn't get my Nikon D60 above the protective glass to get a shot...but my iPhone 6s+ did the job just fine. I have to say that the camera on this device is surprisingly good.

Normally on a Monday morning I do swim squad. But with the pools closed, I went for an early morning with my wife - who was happy to be my model at the end of the run when I noticed a puddle. Even with the world gone mad, it’s important to find the positives.
To my flickr mates, I’m doing my best to keep up - but spending all day on a variety of devices in my home office makes getting on to devices in the evening that little bit harder. I’ll get there.
The Zollern colliery in Dortmund is one of the most beautiful testimonies to Germany's industrial past. An icon of industrial culture made of steel and glass is the machine hall with the stained-glass Art Nouveau portal. Discover the "Palace of Labor", look behind the magnificent brick facades, climb the headframe, follow the coal path and immerse yourself in a world of hard work underground.
Here's a shot of my old place at 814 Gregg Street. You can find another shot of this corner on this web site. A friend posed for me one night, but it's been so long, I can't remember who. I think it was perhaps Elise Knox, but I'm not sure. I notice that one of the LP's on the floor is from the old Angel label (via EMI), when they came in plain, brown wrappers. One of the books is THE ARMADA by Mattingly. There's also a small, black radio visible. I used to listen to WRR-FM on this. That's the Dallas, Texas classical station. The radio wasn't very good, and it would pick up interference from air traffic right in the middle of your favorite symphony or concerto. The vent on the wall is for a very old gas heater that still worked. I rented this half of a duplex from the Morrison family, 1975-1987, and they were wonderful landlords. I like to think of the chair she's sitting in as my "Captain Kirk" Chair. had a lot of fun reading Stephen King novels in that chair. Sadly, it came apart, never to join Starfleet again. The black cylinder by the stereo is a preener, a cloth covered device for cleaning LP's. LP's attract dirt by their very nature. Never use record sprays or anything that might leave a residue on your LP's. There's a YEHUDI MENUIN MUSIC GUIDE on the floor by her feet. I reviewed this for the local paper, the DENTON RECORD-CHRONICLE.
Orion standing 'military ramrod straight' and unsupported on his rear legs surveying the scene. Not sitting, yet poised and ready to go, he does this spontaneously when his view is obstructed by tall grass/weeds/cattail stalks/etc. The position can be held for (say) 5-6 seconds, then he slowly lowers to his all fours. He will repeat as needed until he's satisfied all is OK. It's as if his hips are hinged and seems to take no effort at all. I find his behavior... Amazing !
BTW: the black device on his neck houses a small receiver and tiny speaker. When he ranges out, a touch on my transmitter produces a very quiet 'beep' at his ear. He is trained to stop on that sound and turn his attention towards me for further directions via hand signals (come, go left/right/forward/back, or stop). I need not shout his name/orders, or raise a game frightening ruckus to get his attention. As such, we communicate silently which keeps our stress levels low. Working with Orion is a ton of fun and he seems to love it, too.

I built a bunch of medieval execution and torture devices back in November for a school project and am showcasing a few of them here. I guess you could say this build is a part one of two, with part two coming in two years or so. Yup, this is my last build for the next two years. I'll say more in my 2021 recap that I'll post soon.
This build was quite fun and the execution methods especially were exciting to design. I'm particularly proud of my stock design and the chopping block.
This is also my entry to the Rogues & Outlaws category of Brickscalibur.
Let me know what you think and have a nice day!
