This is Carter Falls up the Big Elkin River in Wilkes County. Around the turn of the century there was a hydroelectric plant built called the Carter Falls Power plant and later Duke Power owned it. It was destroyed in the 1960's and all is left is the beautiful falls which is on private property in Wilkes County. It generated power for the Town of Elkin.

Megadeth is an American heavy metal band from Los Angeles, California, formed in 1983. Founded by guitarist/vocalist Dave Mustaine and bassist Dave Ellefson following Mustaine's expulsion from Metallica, the band has since released 12 studio albums, three live albums, two EPs, 26 singles, 32 music videos, four compilations, and one box set. As a pioneer of the American thrash metal movement, Megadeth rose to international fame in the 1980s and was ranked as one of the "Big Four of Thrash" along with Metallica, Slayer, and Anthrax, who were responsible for creating, developing and popularizing the thrash metal sub-genre.
Glastonbury Tor is a hill in Glastonbury, Somerset, England, which features the roofless St Michael's Tower and forms an iconic part of the local landscape. The site is managed by the National Trust. It has been designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument (No: 196702).
Tor is a local word of Celtic origin meaning "rock outcropping" or "hill". The Tor has a striking location in the middle of the Summerland Meadows, part of the Somerset Levels. The plain is actually reclaimed fenland out of which the Tor once rose as an island but now, with the surrounding flats, is a peninsula washed on three sides by the River Brue. The remains of Glastonbury Lake Village nearby were identified in 1892, showing that there was an Iron Age settlement about 300–200 BC on what was an easily defended island in the fens. Earthworks and Roman remains prove later occupation. The spot seems to have been called Ynys yr Afalon (meaning "The Isle of Avalon") by the Britons and is believed by some to be the Avalon of Arthurian legend.
A model of Glastonbury Tor was incorporated into the opening ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. As the athletes entered the stadium, their flags were displayed on the terraces of the model.
This is an all-cherry freestanding stair that I built in Austin in a place called Applehead Island. The panels had to be cut and welded into place. All the balcony skirts are bookmatched.
The main stair was built on site after I had constructed the parts at the shop. It is actually an ingenious system for building a free-standing stair. A man named Keith (who ran the Austin operation for a while) actually created the system after he and I had labored over the old way, which was building a 2x4 frame, bending the stringer around and adding the treads and risers.
In the new method we screwed the stringer into the treads and risers and constructed it from the ground up. When it was all screwed together *then* we bent and glued the main stringer.
This job took about a month, and was very fun. We fished often off of the dock in the morning. The house across the street had it's own helipad and the guy would get in his helicopter and fly to work each morning... no kidding.
A gorgeous young blonde was visiting her grandfather (from England) and would come and sit with me each day for lunch. It's nice sometimes to have someone around to break the monotony and she was pleasant company.
Anyway, this is probably one of the finest (traditional) jobs I've ever done. Every joint is flawless, the cap was done so the grain matched (using long, continuous runs of cherry). Then the owner went and put a CARPET RUNNER on the damn main stair!!! I wanted to KILL her! But, she had grandkids, so whaddya gonna do?

Ahmed Haizoune, an artist born in 1968 in Marrakech, is a laureate of the Tetouan School of Fine Arts (90-93). He is originally from Oulmès in the Middle Atlas of a Berber family that adopts and raises horses. It was at the age of 13 that he began to draw this animal with which he totally merges. The support also participates in the search for the quality of its achievements. Of course, in the general artistic concept, it is necessary to cultivate a homogeneous perception and spontaneity of the gesture suitable for keeping the whole an easily identifiable chromatic outfit. This is why he works, among other things, on geographical maps or with playing cards. He works a lot between Morocco and Italy where he has exhibited many times in prestigious galleries.
During these trips in the Moroccan south, from the Todra Gorges to Taroudant, he was particularly charmed by the Kasbahs of southern Morocco which constitute a central element of his canvases around which horizons, purple-ochre chromatic nuances and a sober atmosphere that perfectly declines the spirit of the southern spaces where the mountains and desert expanses are joined. Coming from a Berber family that raises horses, Haizoune began his artistic passion at the age of 13 when he began to draw the noble mount with which he totally merges. The artist then joined the School of Fine Arts in Tetouan (90-93) where he perfected his talent before leaving for Italy to learn about the plastic arts. The support also participates in the search for the quality of its achievements. Of course, in the general artistic concept, it is necessary to cultivate a homogeneous perception and spontaneity of the proper gesture, to keep an easily identifiable chromatic outfit as a whole, it is indicated in an appreciation of the artist's work.
A new lake is born in upper Hunza (Pakistan) on the 4th of January 2010. The landslide which created this lake wiped out a complete village and affected thousands of people. 25km of the KKH (Karakoram Highway) is under the water. Farmers become sailors. A local person said, looking at the lake: sad and beautiful...

This is the largest Gothic building in the world and the third-largest church in Europe (after St. Peter's in Rome and St. Paul's in London). Construction began in the late 1400s on the site of an ancient mosque and took centuries to complete. The cathedral claims to contain the remains of Columbus; his tomb is mounted on four statues. Works of art abound, many of them architectural, such as the 15th-century stained-glass windows, the iron screens (rejas) closing off the chapels, the elaborate 15th-century choir stalls, and the Gothic reredos above the main altar.
Today is officially my first day of summer. After checking out at school yesterday and having lunch with friends, I came home and cleaned the house. I did not vacuum, as I figured I would do that today.
Today rolled around and I instead went to the town 20 minutes north of here (where I used to live) to visit former coworkers, eat at Chik-fil-A (we don't have one here), run some errands, and see Star Trek for the 4th time. All of this is obviously better than vacuuming. Once I got home I should have started to vacuum, but I got distracted by visiting sites online and reading...and then making this photo.
Is it not human nature to put off the unfun stuff for the fun stuff. This is not my nature (normally), but it has been today. Oh well. I will vacuum tomorrow. Now it's time to start dinner and then hang out with my husband.
And yes, this is another of the tie-dyed shirts I made.

Hekla is a stratovolcano in the South of Iceland
Height of 1,491 metres (4,892 ft). Hekla is one of Iceland's most active volcanoes; over 20 eruptions have occurred in and around the volcano since 874.
During the Middle Ages, Europeans called the volcano the "Gateway to Hell".
Hekla is part of a volcanic ridge, 40 kilometres (25 mi) long. The most active part of this ridge, a fissure about 5.5 km (3.4 mi) long named Heklugjá, is considered to be the volcano Hekla proper. Hekla looks rather like an overturned boat, with its keel being a series of craters, two of which are generally the most active.
The volcano's frequent large eruptions have covered much of Iceland with tephra and these layers can be used to date eruptions of Iceland's other volcanos. 10% of the tephra created in Iceland in the last thousand years has come from Hekla, amounting to 5 km3. The volcano has produced one of the largest volumes of lava of any in the world in the last millennium, around 8 km3.
This is the light that was hitting the trees behind the sunset pictures posted just a bit further down my stream. I can't describe it, and the photos don't do it justice. In particular, my usual RGB Generic colour space is letting me down on this one as the web browser shows far less red on this photo, at least in FireFox - Safari displays the embedded colour profile, which is richer and more accurate, and I'm not sure what IE is showing. Web colours are a bit of a pain.
Off to the Cowichan Valley. Hope to have some stuff to share on Tuesday. Have a great weekend.
This is a photograph from the finish of the 36th Michael Manning Memorial "Dunshaughlin 10KM" Road Race and Fun Run which took place in Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath, Ireland on Saturday 20th June 2015 at 19:30. This race is widely acknowledged within the Irish running community as one of the best races in Ireland. While being very well attended and competitive it is also one of the oldest 10KM races in Ireland. The numbers for this race have exceeded expectations year on year for the past number of years. In 2008 a record field of 306 took to the start line but by 2012 this number had more than doubled with 647 runners taking part. The starting numbers in 2013 topped this again at 668. Last year, 2014, the numbers rocketed to a new record of 883. This year 862 finished the race showing that the race continues to attract very substantial crowds. This year, as in previous years, the race attracted runners from not just all of Leinster but from the four corners of Ireland. Who knows but this race could reach 1,000 entrants next year? The work of the organising committee must be commended on making this event possible. The Dunshaughlin 10KM has earned it's place at the top of the pedestal of Irish running through the sheer hard work of Dunshaughlin AC over the years. Road race events do not survive on their own. There must be dedication, hard work and a development vision amongst the committee and the host club. Well done to all.
We have an extensive set of photographs from the race tonight taken at the 9KM mark and at 400M to go. The full set is available at: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157654823417232

When you click on either of these you will be presented with the option to download the image. Remember just doing a right-click and "save target as" will not work on Flickr.
I want get full resolution, print-quality, copies of these photographs?
If you just need these photographs for online usage then they can be used directly once you respect their Creative Commons license and provide a link back to our Flickr set if you use them. For offline usage and printing all of the photographs posted here on this Flickr set are available free, at no cost, at full image resolution.
Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.
In summary please remember when requesting photographs from us - If you are using the photographs online all we ask is for you to provide a link back to our Flickr set or Flickr pages. You will find the link above clearly outlined in the description text which accompanies this photograph.

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs
We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?
The explaination is very simple.
Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.
ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

*This is Maddy.
Maddy is feral.
He lived on my patio after I trapped him and had him neutered about a year and a half ago.
The patio is gone.
A tragedy happened last September. My house was burned down and my life is forever changed.
I still take care of Maddy as much as he'll let me. We are survivors.
My house is still being rebuilt. The sink Maddy is laying in is one of 4 beautiful Talavera sinks going into my new house.
Maddy is so sweet and funny. This is the first time I've seen him bathe in the sink.*
She is a Work in Progress.
It took a lot of hard work and ingenuity to create this girl (considering you cannot buy spray paint in the city of Chicago). I had to use other tanning methods to get the perfect shade of Ebony . I think it turned out well for my 1st time
Another 1st for me, Boil perms :/
Also i applied my Opalescent porous skin tone technique to the final coats.
With all these firsts I figured Edison would be a good name for her.
Details:
1) Nose, Eye, and Philtrum Carving
2) Painting of face and body in Ebony color
3) Pure Azone Flextion Body upgrade
4) the face and body was treated for a Opalescent porous skin look
5) AllProtected with UV MSC
6) Lips painted with Acrylic red paint and gloss varnished
7) Eyes bogggled and gaze corrected
8) Sleep eye
9) 2 custom color eye chips by Me
10) Factory face plate and eye mechanism used with a Nicky lad Scalp, which has been boil permed
Thank you Melly Kay for the tips. Even though I could not use spray paint, your kind words of encouragement pushed me through this process. :D

This is a photograph of my brothers in a wavepool on holiday in Florida. I took the photograph with a waterproof camera, I was in the water too, waiting patiently for the waves to crash on the boys. The blues/turquoises and greens are beautiful in the image, and the white of the beautiful clouds and crashing waves have been emphasised by HDR. I wanted to create a dreamlike image, one that will show every detail of the photograph but emphasised by the colour and contrast of HDR. I like the composition of the image – my brothers are central and the colours are balanced well. I think I have managed to create a dreamy effect that would not be possible with a non-edited image straight out of the camera. I have had this image printed on Acrylic, the quality is fantastic is stunning to look at - the shine of the plastic looks great along with the water in the photograph.

This is one of the few times when I have no recollection of this hike or this capture. I can't even really place where I was when I took it. I am pretty sure I was with someone because during this time I rarely hiked alone. Anyway, I often take captures of trailheads and trails winding through woods, it is a scene I never grow tired of, and like Paul McCartney and his silly love songs, I take make pictures of silly trailheads. I just don't think there can be too many. I think because these shots always speak to me of adventure, journey, and all that goes with it. So as long as I am doing those things I will keep taking these shots I would imagine.
This image was shot in JPG using only the settings in my camera, there was no post-processing or editing.
Chillenden is best known for the white clapboard post mill, which is about half a mile above the village.
I came here via Goodnestone, and on the map it looked like an easy journey of a couple of miles. As it turned out the network of narrow lanes made it more difficult, but I knew where the mill was, so made my way there, then down into the village which is stretched along a sunken lane, the church being opposite the village pub.
All Saints is a small church, similar to Harty and Stodmarsh, with a sturdy wooden fram holding the small tower and spire up.
Some nice victorian tiles and ancient glass in the window, but just fragments.
------------------------------------------
Chillenden comes from the Old English ‘denu’ meaning a ‘valley’ combined with a personal name; therefore, ‘Ciolla’s valley’. The Domesday Book records Chillenden as Cilledene.
Chillenden parish church is a Grade: II listed building, dedicated to All Saints. The Normans built the church in the 12th century with additions in the 14th and 15th centuries. In 1800, Edward Hasted described the Chillenden church as ‘antient, it is a mean building, very small, having a square tower at the west end, in which there is only one bell. It consists of a body, and one chancel. In the windows are remains of very handsome painted glass. There is a handsome zig-zag moulding, and circular arch over the north door. There is likewise a circular arch, but plainer than the other, over the south door’. The architect Sir George Gilbert Scott sensitively restored the church in 1871.

----------------------------------------==
CHILLENDEN,
WRITTEN in the survey of Domesday, Cilledene, lies the next parish westward from Knolton, taking its name from its cold and low situation. The manors of Knolton and Woodnesborough claim over part of this parish, as does the manor of Adisham over another part of it. A borsholder is appointed for this parish by the justices, at their petty sessions for this division of the lath of St. Augustine.
THE PARISH of Chillenden lies dry and healthy, but it is not very pleasantly situated, though surrounded by other parishes which are remarkably so; it is very small, containing only one hundred and sixty acres, and the whole rents in it amount to little more than 250l. per annum. There are three farms in it, one belonging to Mr. Hammond, and the other two to Sir Brook Bridges, bart. It lies low in a bottom, the high road from Canterbury to Deal leads through the village called Chillenden-street, which consists of twenty two houses; on the south side stands the church. The soil is chalky and poor, and the lands, which are arable, are open and uninclosed. A fair is held here on WhitMonday, for pedlary, &c.
THIS PLACE, at the time of taking the survey of Domesday, was part of the possessions of Odo, bishop of Baieux, under the general title of whose lands it is entered in it as follows:
Osbern (son of Letard) holds of the bishop Cilledene. It was taxed at one suling and one yoke and ten acres. The arable land is . . . . In demesne there is nothing now, but nine villeins have there two carucates and an half. In the time of king Edward the Consessor it was worth sixty shillings, and afterwards thirty shillings, now forty shillings. Godwin held it of king Edward, and five other Thanes. Thomas Osbern put three of their lands into one manor.
Four years after the taking of this survey, this estate, on the bishop's disgrace and the consiscation of his estates, came into the hands of the crown.
After which it came into the possession of a family, who took their surname from it, and there is mention made in deeds, which are as antient as the reign of king Henry III. of John de Chillenden, Edward and William de Chillenden, who had an interest in this place; after this name was become extinct here, the Bakers, of Caldham, in Capel, near Folkestone, possessed it, in whom this manor continued till king Henry VI.'s reign, when it passed by sale to Hunt, whose descendants remained entitled to it for two or three descents, when one of them alienated it to Gason, of Apulton, in Ickham. (fn. 1) They bore for their arms, Azure, a fess cotized, ermine, between three goats heads, couped, argent; which coat was granted anno 39 king Henry VIII. (fn. 1) in which name it continued for some time, and till it was at length sold to Hammond, of St. Alban's, in Nonington, in whose descendants it has continued down to William Hammond, esq. of St. Alban's, who is the present owner of this manor.
This estate pays a quit rent to Adisham manor, of which it is held. It has no manerial rights, and it is much doubted, if it had ever any claim, beyond the reputation of a manor.
There are no parochial charities. The poor constantly relieved are about sixteen, casually six.
THIS PARISH is within the ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTION of the diocese of Canterbury, and deanry of Bridge.
The church, which is dedicated to All Saints, seems antient, it is a mean building, very small, having a square tower at the west end, in which there is only one bell. It consists of a body, and one chancel. In the windows are remains of very handsome painted glass. There is a handsome zig-zag moulding, and circular arch over the north door. There is likewise a circular arch, but plainer than the other, over the south door. It has nothing further worth mention in it.
¶This church was part of the possessions of the priory of Ledes, being given to it by William de Northwic, about the latter end of king Henry II.'s reign; (fn. 2) but the prior and convent never obtained the appropriation of it, but contented themselves with a pension of eight shillings yearly from it; in which state it continued till the dissolution of the priory in the 31st year of king Henry VIII's reign, when the advowson, together with the above pension, came with the rest of the possession of the priory, into the hands of the crown, in which the patronage of this church continues at this time. But the annual pension of eight shillings was soon afterwards settled by the king in his 33d year, among other premises, on his new-founded dean and chapter of Rochester, part of whose possessions it still continues.
This rectory is valued in the king's books at five pounds. It is now a discharged living, and is of about the clear yearly value of twenty six pounds. In 1588 it was valued at forty pounds, communicants seventyseven. In 1640 it was valued at the same, communicants seventy.
There are three acres of glebe. The present incumbent has built a tolerable good parsonage-house on the scite of the antient one. There is no land within this parish exempt from the payment of tithe.

This is located at the beginning of Palace Street the shortest street in Dublin.
Novelist and postal official Anthony Trollope, who lived for a time in Donnybrook, is credited with introducing post boxes to Ireland in the mid-19th century.
Back in 1922 rather than replacing red British Postboxes the Irish Government decided to save money by painting them green even though the street furniture in question featured the royal cypher symbols [logos] such as ER (Edward Rex), GR (George Rex) and VR (Victoria Regina), complete with a large crown in many if not all cases.
It is claimed that the postbox in my photographs was the first to be painted green in Ireland.
Note: I am aware that many postboxes in the UK were originally painted green rather than red.
The band is composed of five members who met in college at the College of Fine Arts of the University of the Philippines Diliman. Kamikazee's early gigs were mostly on campus events in UP Diliman like the annual UP Fair. Before they were signed in a major label, they went by the name "Kamikazee Cornflakes" (eventually shortened to its current state as "Kamikazee" which is easier to remember). Their early shows included renditions of the songs "Mmm Sarap", "Tsinelas", a cover of Ariel Rivera's "Sana Kahit Minsan", and Britney Spears' Lucky. They were known for using expletives, suggestive movements, and references to genitalia in their UP Diliman performances.

The stupidity of power politics is just beyond any human belief. Who are these wretched mechanised androids, who solve problems by a push of a button? It appears that the world, slowly and gradually, is moving backwards... just a thought to end another year of this new, wonderful millennium.

This is the Goliathus Goliatus which is native to Africa and one of the biggest insects around. They usually range from 60-110mm (males) and 50-80mm (females). They were so beautiful to look at...I wish I got a better photo! Montreal Insectarium, May 2008.
Is this the ultimate Nikkormat? The Nikkormat FT2 is the middle child of the mechanical Nikkormat line and probably the best of both worlds. It has excellent lens compatibility, a modern battery cell, and a build quality that could stop a .50 BMG round. It feels good to have a functional mechanical Nikon in my kit again.

Ystad is a town, and the seat of Ystad Municipality, Skåne County, Sweden, with 18,350 inhabitants in 2010. The settlement dates back to the 11th century and the town has become a busy ferryport, local administrative centre and tourist attraction. It is associated with the fictional detective Kurt Wallander whose stories, by Henning Mankell, are set in Ystad. Wallander is superb series of crime novels, mostly quite gruesome. The lead character is a very brilliant but seriously flawed individual whose own life, relationships and heath are chaotic. The English language version is also excellent with Kenneth Brannagh in the lead role. The Swedish version shown ( Subtitled ) also on BBC Four is equally excellent but seems to be even more gruesome. All of the novels are great reading, really well written by Henning Mankell , in such a way that you develop images of each of the characters in your mind.
It is understood the "y" is probably related to an old word for the yew tree, while -stad is town, or place. In Danish times before 1658 the spelling was Ysted

This is the finished connectors after rewiring my Infineon eBike motor controller. Notice I staggered the hall sensor connectors block and the anderson powerpole connectors a bit. This helps them sit nicle side-by-side inside a small plastic box on the fork which you'll see later in this set. This is primarily for aesthetics, trying to cut down on the number of "loose wires" on my bike and cleanup the look.
