For 121 Pictures in 2021 #47 "Illustrate a book title" these are serrano and Thai chiles, both red and green to go on the cover of "The Devil's Dinner, a gastronomic and cultural history of chili peppers" by Stuart Walton. I should note that his use of "chili peppers is incorrect, anything referring to the plant or the pod itself should be spelled chile. The term chili should be only used to refer to a stew making use of chiles. This was borne out by extensive research on the internet, where, as we all know, everything is correct.
One of a series (See album) of physical, plant fruit, used to display the nine fruits of the Spirit, as described in Galatians 5:22-23. Faith (also may be translated as faithfulness) is one of these fruits of the Spirit. I picked fruit that had a name that started with the same sound or letters as the Fruit of the Spirit illustrated. I confess that I had never heard of feijoa until I did this poster.
Thanks for looking! Be faithful.
The American Robin is well-nigh everywhere in North America during breeding season, and a few individuals stay around in southern Alberta, Canada, over the winter. This individual among snow-covered Common Juniper illustrates challenges of the season such as finding food and staying warm.
With 16,000 tons in 120 cars on the drawbar these three EMD's are screamin' their guts out in notch 8 with a cloud of sand dust following their progress as they assault the hill up to the diamond at Plymouth, OH. 8/10/2025
Our ”We’re Here!” theme today is Photographic terms illustrated. I enjoy shooting into the sun to see what kind of crazy lens flare and starburst effects I can get.
I love the title of this work by Arcangelo Sassolino. It allows the viewer to create their own meaning. In principle though, this kinetic sculpture illustrates the forces of physics that push material objects to their limits. The weight of that rock threatens to break the glass plate on which it sits. The shadows and reflection all add to the mysterious nature of the work as the rock seems to be floating on air.
Excerpt from historicplaces.ca:
Description of Historic Place
The Navy Hall stands alone in a carefully manicured park setting just below Fort George National Historic Site. Designed with clear, clean lines, it is a low, rectangular, stone-clad structure with a hipped-roof clad in copper, and with a symmetrical organization of its windows and entry points. The designation is confined to the footprint of the building.
Heritage Value
The Navy Hall is a Recognized Federal Heritage Building because of its historical associations, and its architectural and environmental values.
Historical Value:
The Navy Hall is a very good example of a building associated with the beginnings of the heritage movement in the first half of the 20th century. It illustrates changing approaches to the management of important historic buildings over time. In particular, it illustrates the role of aesthetics in conservation in the 1930s. Originally a commissariat storehouse, regular troops, the militia and also the Boy Scouts used the building, built in 1815. In the 1930s, the building was taken over by the Niagara Parks Commission.
Architectural Value:
The Navy Hall is valued for its good aesthetic design. The exterior fabric of the structure, the stone cladding, the copper clad roof, and the enhanced symmetry of the fenestration are features of the 1930s intervention. These features, clearly of a later era and philosophy, reflect the classical revival tastes of the period and the design idiom of the Niagara Parks Commission. Good functional design is evidenced in the placement of doors and windows, and in the spatial arrangement and planning of the interior.
Environmental Value:
The Navy Hall reinforces the landscaped parkway that runs along the Niagara lakefront and is a familiar landmark to residents and to visitors.
Character-Defining Elements
The character-defining elements of the Navy Hall should be respected.
Its good aesthetic, good functional design and good quality materials and craftsmanship, for example:
-the simple, rectangular massing.
-the low-pitched hipped roof, the copper roof cladding, and the symmetrically placed chimneys.
-the stone cladding of the exterior walls, the small multi-paned windows and large entrances.
-the interior spatial arrangement of the principal rooms.
The manner in which the Navy Hall reinforces the landscaped setting and is a familiar landmark, as evidenced by:
-its simple design and materials that harmonize with the landscaped parkway consisting of well-maintained lawns and walks, all introduced as part of the Niagara Park Commission’s parkway landscaping in the 1930s.
-its visibility and recognition by those frequenting the parkway and the National Historic Site.
These are the days by the sparkling river...

Common Grackle has a Conservation Status under the IUCN of Near Threatened www.iucnredlist.org/species/22724320/131484290
This Common Grackle was one of several that were feeding on what seemed to me an unusual food source: the small seeds at the base of the scales of coniferous cones. This illustrates the resourcefulness of this species. The setting was Elliston Park in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
This guy could hardly keep still from laughing! At last he did for about three seconds! Just time to take this shot!
This illustrates the power of digital cameras - the stars were barely visible and I had to guess the position of the pole star. I had to pause the collection of images so there is a gap in the trails but here for what it's worth is a star trail pic over the raquets court at Copped Hall, Essex, UK taken during our night photography evening this week.
One of my favourite books as a child was The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. My mother had a very old copy from her own childhood and I was enthralled by the Victorian era story of the orphaned Mary who came from India where her parents had died to live with a cold uncle in his bleak Yorkshire manse.
Mary gradually uncovers the story of the house’s ‘Secret Garden’. This image is about the discovery of the key to the garden:
Mary tentatively asks (gardener) Ben Weatherstaff if anything is still living in the secret garden, and he replies that only the robin knows, as no one else has been inside in ten years. Mary wanders off, following the wall of the garden without a door. The robin follows her and leads her to a mound of freshly turned earth, which, when Mary examines it closely, contains a tarnished key that has long been buried. It may, Mary thinks, be the key to the secret garden.

The work illustrates my relationships with trees and with dear friends, whom I asked to write short texts, or sometimes poems … I made a dream some true by portraying these relationships between these people and these trees in a monumental work.
