For unknown reasons, the newly constructed great blue heron nest has apparently been abandoned at the heron rookery in Metzger Farm Open Space in Westminster and Broomfield, Colorado. As noted in the previous photo, a pair of herons began building the nest about May 27, 2018. They made good progress and at least one heron was consistently at the nest. Both herons were seen at the nest in the morning on June 2, and one was at the nest at 5:30 that evening. However, the nest was empty on the morning of June 3 and has remained empty for several days.
As described in previous photos, a nest was built at this site (lower right in the tree) earlier in the year, but was abandoned after a severe windstorm. That nest disappeared over several days, probably from herons taking the sticks for another nest. Then a pair began building a new nest at this site, which has now been abandoned.
This leaves two nests with herons apparently sitting on eggs in this rookery.

For this last comparison pic (it may not actually be the last one), I put in two of my favorite Ghoulias. I put as much of the basic outfit on first wave Ghoulia as I could stand. I could not put that green headband on her. On the other hand, the Ghoulias look nice in some of Frankie's clothing. As for GA "Ghoulia," the pants fit her better before I took them off, and I don't know why I can't make them fit her the same way now.

Peanuts yellow color plate for 28 March 1976 for a four-color Sunday strip in the form of the heavy paper-like mold used at newspapers, called a flong, stereotype matrix, or mat. This flong is part of a large set retained by an unknown party in the 1970s at a Swedish newspaper, which eventually made their way to a thrift store in that country. You can find the original strip at www.gocomics.com/peanuts/1976/3/28
From the 1910s to 1980s, comic syndicates created etched metal plates from an artist’s originals, and then used those plates under pressure to create flongs, perfect molds. Each plate might be used to produce thousands of flongs, which were sent out in sheets of six (for daily strips) and as four color separations (for color Sunday comics) to newspapers around the country or world. Newspapers would use small casting boxes to create flat plates from these flongs that were then laid out as part of full pages. The entire page was then made into a flong, put into a curved stereotype caster, and cast as a hemispherical metal plate to go on the newspaper's press.
For more about this process, read my article on flongs and stereotypes: glennf.medium.com/flong-time-no-see-2b54438027dd
For this assignment, I chose to emulate Paul Strand’s photographic style. First by capturing an image of an object seen on a daily basis and trying to make it stand out and appear as more than it is. Strand was also known for highlighting the shapes of his subjects with a close view. I tried to capture the many different boxes in the rebar web while taking the image restively close to the object. Strand’s photography also lacked tonality and atmospheric lighting which is seen in my photo. I feel like there is a nice pattern between each piece of rebar and the much lighter sky. The different colored rebar also creates a nice texture which depended on how rusted the pieces of rebar were. Some of the rebar begins at the edge of the photo, both top and bottom. I think this creates a nice effect along with the close and low positioning of the camera.

Benefit for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in honor of Miranda Beamer, a 3-year old little girl diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma, a rare childhood cancer.
MIRANDA'S STORY
"While out of town at the end of August 2007 we found a lump on Miranda’s back. She is 3 yrs old, the youngest of four girls. When we returned home we went to the doctor who sent us to Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital to try to see what it was. We ended up being admitted on Sept 1, 2007 when Miranda’s fever of three days would no longer be controlled with medication at home, she was dehydrated and not eating or drinking. After numerous tests and scans we finally got a final diagnosis on Sept 6th. Mirnada has Ewing’s Sarcoma, a childhood cancer. Miranda is being treated at Vanderbilt Children's Hopsital where has had six rounds of chemo and then surgery on Dec 21st to remove the tumor and put in a gj tube to feed her directly to her stomach. Along the way Miranda has had lots of problems with diarrhea and vomiting and she just hasn't eaten anything all of which caused her to drop eleven pounds. Her little body has been hit really hard by the chemo, but with the gj tube she is getting better and putting on weight. She has eight more rounds to go which will start just after the first of the year. We hope to finish by Miranda's 4th birthday on May 15th." -Greg & Tiffany Beamer
We decided to go for a city break rather than sun in Tenerife again this September. Other than a few days in the North East we haven’t been away since last March and wanted a change and hopefully some sun. The problem is getting flights from the north of England to the places we want to go to. We chose Valencia as we could fly from East Midlands – which was still a pain to get to as it involved the most notorious stretch of the M1 at five in the morning. In the end we had a fairly good journey, the new Ryanair business class pre-booked scheme worked quite well and bang on time as usual. It was dull when we landed with storms forecast all week, the sky was bright grey – the kiss of death to the photography I had in mind. I was full of cold and wishing I was at work. It did rain but it was overnight on our first night and didn’t affect us. There has been a drought for eleven months apparently and it rained on our first day there! The forecast storms didn’t materialise in Valencia but they got it elsewhere.
Over the course of a Monday to Sunday week we covered 75 miles on foot and saw most of the best of Valencia – The City of Bell Towers. The Old City covers a pretty large area in a very confusing layout. There was a lot of referring to maps – even compass readings! – a first in a city for us. The problem with photography in Valencia is that most of the famous and attractive building are closely built around, some have poor quality housing built on to them. Most photographs have to be taken from an extreme angle looking up. There are no high points as it is pan flat, there are a small number of buildings where you can pay to go up on to the roof for a better view and we went up them – more than once!
The modern buildings of The City of Arts and Sciences – ( Ciutat de Las Arts I de les Ciencies ) are what the city has more recently become famous for, with tourists arriving by the coachload all day until late at night. They must be photographed millions of times a month. We went during the day and stayed till dark one evening, I gave it my best shot but a first time visit is always a compromise between ambition and realism, time dictates that we have to move on to the next destination. I travelled with a full size tripod – another first – I forgot to take it with me to TCoAaS! so It was time to wind up the ISO, again! Needless to say I never used the tripod.
On a day when rain was forecast but it stayed fine, albeit a bit dull, we went to the Bioparc north west of the city, a zoo by another name. There are many claims made for this place, were you can appear to walk alongside some very large animals, including, elephants, lions, giraffe, rhino, gorillas and many types of monkey to name a few. It is laid out in different geographical regions and there is very little between you and the animals, in some cases there is nothing, you enter the enclosure through a double door arrangement and the monkeys are around you. It gets rave reviews and we stayed for most of the day. The animals it has to be said gave the appearance of extreme boredom and frustration and I felt quite sorry for them.
The course of The River Turia was altered after a major flood in the 50’s. The new river runs west of the city flanked by a motorway. The old river, which is massive, deep and very wide between ancient walls, I can’t imagine how it flooded, has been turned into a park that is five miles long. There is an athletics track, football pitches, cycle paths, restaurants, numerous kids parks, ponds, fountains, loads of bridges, historic and modern. At the western end closest to the sea sits The City of Arts and Sciences – in the river bed. Where it meets the sea there is Valencia’s urban Formula One racetrack finishing in the massive marina built for The Americas Cup. The race track is in use as roadways complete with fully removable street furniture, kerbs, bollards, lights, islands and crossings, everything is just sat on the surface ready to be moved.
We found the beach almost by accident, we were desperate for food after putting in a lot of miles and the afternoon was ticking by. What a beach, 100’s of metres wide and stretching as far as the eye could see with a massive promenade. The hard thing was choosing, out of the dozens of restaurants, all next door to each other, all serving traditional Paella – rabbit and chicken – as well as seafood, we don’t eat seafood and it constituted 90% of the menu in most places. Every restaurant does a fixed price dish of the day, with a few choices, three courses and a drink. Some times this was our only meal besides making the most of the continental breakfast at the hotel. We had a fair few bar stops with the local wine being cheap and pleasant it would have been a shame not to, there would have been a one woman riot – or strike!
On our final day, a Sunday, we were out of bed and down for breakfast at 7.45 as usual, the place was deserted barring a waiter. We walked out of the door at 8.30 – in to the middle of a mass road race with many thousands of runners, one of a series that take place in Valencia – apparently! We struggled to find out the distance, possibly 10km. The finish was just around the corner so off we went with the camera gear, taking photos of random runners and groups. There was a TV crew filming it and some local celebrity (I think) commentating. Next we came across some sort of wandering religious and musical event. Some sort of ritual was played out over the course of Sunday morning in various locations, it involved catholic priests and religious buildings and another film crew. The Catholic tourists and locals were filling the (many) churches for Sunday mass. Amongst all of this we had seen men walking around in Arab style dress – the ones in black looked like the ones from ISIS currently beheading people – all carrying guns. A bit disconcerting. We assumed that there had been some sort of battle enactment. We were wrong, it hadn’t happened yet. A while later, about 11.30 we could hear banging, fireworks? No it was our friends with the guns. We were caught up in total mayhem, around 60 men randomly firing muskets with some sort of blank rounds, the noise, smoke and flames from the muzzles were incredible. We were about to climb the Torres de Serranos which is where, unbeknown to us, the grand, and deafening, finale was going to be. We could feel the blast in our faces on top of the tower. Yet again there was a film camera in attendance. I couldn’t get close ups but I got a good overview and shot my first video with the 5D, my first in 5 years of owning a DLSR with the capability. I usually use my phone ( I used my phone as well). Later in the day there was a bullfight taking place, the ring was almost next to our hotel, in the end we had other things to do and gave it a miss, it was certainly a busy Sunday in the city centre, whether it’s the norm or not I don’t know.
There is a tram system in Valencia but it goes from the port area into the newer part of the city on the north side, it wouldn’t be feasible to serve the historic old city really. A quick internet search told me that there are 55,000 university students in the city, a pretty big number. I think a lot of the campus is on the north side and served by the tram although there is a massive fleet of buses as well. There is a massive, very impressive market building , with 100’s of stalls that would make a photo project on its own, beautiful on the inside and out but very difficult to get decent photos of the exterior other than detail shots owing to the closeness of other buildings and the sheer size of it. Across town, another market has been beautifully renovated and is full of bars and restaurants and a bit of a destination in its own right.
A downside was the all too typical shafting by the taxi drivers who use every trick in the book to side step the official tariffs and rob you. The taxi from the airport had a “broken” meter and on the way home we were driven 22 km instead of the nine that is the actual distance. Some of them seem to view tourists as cash cows to be robbed at all costs. I emailed the Marriot hotel as they ordered the taxi, needless to say no answer from Marriot – they’ve had their money. We didn’t get the rip off treatment in the bars etc. that we experienced in Rome, prices are very fair on most things, certainly considering the city location.
All in all we had a good trip and can highly recommend Valencia.
