That my final Flickr photo for 2020 should be taken from Halloween. It's been a scary and frightening year for lots of folks, with an unseen killer virus stalking the world and unrest and uncertainty everywhere you cast an eye. From my own perspective not a lot has changed, I do practically the same job I started the year with (just from my spare bedroom) my personal circumstances are the same. Francesca is about just as much but almost exclusively in the house, apart from a dozen or so occasions most of which were early in the year. I have made some lovely new friends through Instagram which I most definitely never expected (even somehow managed to meet the majority of them on a very wet August night in Manchester) but otherwise not a lot else has changed. I reached a milestone age and celebrated it stuck in the house which was not what i had planned. We're going to enter into 2021 with things very much as bad as they have been on the pandemic front, so much for a happy new year. Anyway enough negativity, hopefully 2021 will bring something better (as unlikely as it currently seems) and if you are celebrating the coming of the new year tonight try and do so in as safe as fashion as you can and hopefully you can crack open something nice (in the company of those closest to you) and enjoy. See you all on the other side 💋 Cesca
I saw this door fitting assembly at a farm when hiking in Bad Mitterndorf. This funny guy must have seen many people come and go...

There was a point in my life when I instinctively held the camera in a vertical orientation. No doubt the portrait mode does seem to fit some subjects better than others. But going back through my photos from the past few years, I notice that I hardly ever use it anymore. Most every photo I shoot nowadays is horizontal. Could be in part due to the DSLR camera. It just feels more balanced and comfortable holding it that way. Posting images to Flickr is also a contributing factor because of the way vertical photos are reduced to match the height of the horizontal ones. So when you do post a vertical photo amid a sea of horizontal shots, it looks tiny. With that in mind I thought it might be fun to go back into portrait mode for a few days so that the vertical shots will appear along side one another.
Statues and figurines are often best framed in vertical format. It's just a better way to fill the frame. This little statute stands over the grave of a child. It's one of those things that defies logic in that it is still intact after a hundred plus years. The upward pointing arm is looking a bit worse for the wear and I expect to find it missing next time I visit.

A male Cardinal on our bird feeder with this nice Cardinal barn quilt plaque we have on our garage as a fitting backdrop!
Growing up on a farm nearly 80 years ago had many healthy benefits, both mentally and physically. The nearly two decades of my life fitting into a family of 8 kids helping my parents survive prepared me for the rest of my life.
For a lot of us who had similar experiences, those days also left us with various lifelong physical ailments.
Noise pollution wasn't talked about much back then but it walked alongside us every day. Anyone who has ever scooped ears of corn into a corn grinder run by a power take-off will never forget the deafening whining sound it created that bombarded our brain lasting well past turning off the tractor.
Every farm lad spent hours in the field on tractors that majored on horsepower rather than sound containment. The constant roar of a tractor assaulting young ears went on throughout long days and were normally interrupted only by a short, quiet lunch hour.
When the tractor was driven into the farmyard at night and turned off, the sounds still echoed in the deepest part of our brain for an hour or so until the comparative silence gradually took over.
Decades later, many young fellas now old and stiff, have bad backs from the jostling taking a beating sitting on bare steel seats. My own decreasing hearing can probably be traced to those days as well and at night before I mercifully fall asleep the sounds of those encounters can quickly be recalled.
The black and white photo of my father in the lead tractor pulling a hired helper on the second Farmall F-20 while plowing and discing a reluctant hay-field is around 80 years old and I colorized it to bring out some details.

The doors to the dust collection cabinet are hinges and fit the way I want them to- next to build the side cabinets and finish the dust collection system.
