Finally having a deck built onto the house. It is February and the ground is frozen solid. This was a lot of work by four strong guys. These are the first two holes they dug for the posts.
I went out this morning only to clean up the yard from yesterday's high winds. I was surprised to see isolated patches of snow here and there.
My digging hole is frozen solid, so I guess that can be pleasantly forgotten about for a few months. It doesn't really make an interesting picture, but when you play around with it, you see all sorts of cool images.
Now, if only I could have spent that time digging instead of clicking on buttons in photoshop (sigh)

Another one from the photo walk of the other night. When we came across this digger we all got a little shutter-happy, but I just to take it a little further by sticking my camera to a nearby roadsign with the GorillaPod and then messing about with my two speedlights.
Much as I like Nikon CLS, I have to say that it let me down here. I'm really beginning to see the point of radio triggers. Not that I can afford Pocket Wizards. Roll on RadioPoppers!
(CLS is still great for indoors and/or close range.)
Lit with one bare SB600 on the ground in front of the digger, fired by CLS, and one SB800 behind the digger's cab, not fired by Nikon CLS.
10 minutes into snowblowing the driveway, the snowblower's auger drive belt broke, so I had to resort to hand shoveling. Uggh! 14 inches of snow and a very big driveway.

On 7th January 17 people started digging on the site next to Carter's House at the entrance to the Valley of the Kings. They are involved in the important task of preserving the tombs in the Theban Necropolis. An exact facsimile of the tomb of Tutankhamun will open to visitors next spring.
The project has been funded by Factum Foundation.

A Hawk sounded an alarm and all activity ceased. All the Meerkat's headed toward their holes in the ground.

If you don't have enough arm power to push the shovel down when digging then you RIDE it down *grin*. Blogged @ rosinahuber.blogspot.com/2011/03/chicken-coop-remodel.html
Older daughter was anticipating that we will find gold while digging... I explained to her that if we find water that IS gold.
Several years ago we purchased a wonderful piece of land in the untouched hills above the city where I was born. Summer days are sooooo hot here and the sun is strong so this year during our visit to Montenegro we decided to try to find water and build a well.
I was surprised to learn that my high school math teacher is also a well-known and successful “water-finder” in the area. He uses the principles of radiesthesia. First he surveyed the lot with the brass dowsing pendulum and then he used two L-shaped brass wire rods. He managed to locate about 7 “water spots" and then marked the strongest one for us to start digging. www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://diviningmind.com/stor...
At that particular spot he estimated that there are 4 water runs that are meeting at depth of 7-7.5m underground. So we started digging.
