It was beautiful spring day for the 2019 Texas Fort Muste event iat the Stockyards in Fort Worth, Texas. The Texas Forts Muster celebration was created in 2001 to celebrate the heritage of Texas’ Frontier fort settlements, like Fort Worth. The Muster brings together authentic wagons, flags, music, colorful uniforms and military gear from several Texas frontier landmarks, as well as, reenactors, musicians and other folks interested in Texas’ frontier history. The period of time covered by the celebration was the Texas frontier from the days of the early Republic in 1836, through the settlements on the frontier to the closing of the frontier by the late 1890s. I had a great time talking to reenactors and taking photos at the event.

Sul bordo di un crepaccio del Ghiacciaio del Rodano, il ghiaccio assume una colorazione rossastra sorprendente. Questa traccia vivace è opera di Chlamydomonas nivalis, un’alga della neve microscopica. In estate, quando l’acqua di fusione e la luce solare abbondano, questa alga unicellulare produce pigmenti rossi per proteggersi dai raggi UV e dalla disidratazione. Così nasce un motivo colorato ma effimero sulla superficie del ghiacciaio, un segno inaspettato di vita in un mondo di ghiaccio.

Am Rand einer Gletscherspalte im Rhonegletscher färbt sich das Eis auffallend rot. Diese leuchtende Spur stammt von Chlamydomonas nivalis, einer mikroskopisch kleinen Schneealge. Im Sommer, wenn Schmelzwasser und Sonnenlicht reichlich vorhanden sind, bildet diese einzellige Alge rote Pigmente als Schutz vor UV Strahlung und Austrocknung. So entsteht ein farbenfrohes, aber vergängliches Muster auf der Gletscheroberfläche, ein unerwartetes Zeichen von Leben in einer Welt aus Eis.

Along the edge of a crevasse in the Rhône Glacier, the ice takes on a striking red hue. This vivid trace is the work of Chlamydomonas nivalis, a microscopic snow alga. In summer, when meltwater and sunlight are abundant, this unicellular alga produces red pigments to protect itself from UV radiation and dehydration. The result is a colorful but fleeting pattern on the glacier’s surface, an unexpected sign of life in a world of ice.
These were all over the ship, helping passengers in case of emergency to find the closest muster station -- with or without their life jackets!

Built in 1854 as the administration building for the Charlestown Navy Yard this building is now used for private office space.
Oversized logo struggles to fit in the frame, at Leipzig's old trade fair centre. I like how the cloud pattern in the sky seems to be orbiting around the Ms, though I wonder if I should have taken the whole shot from slightly further back. Perhaps it is better like this, though, to emphasise how very large these things are - as I am often tempted to say when people inch too carefully through a generously-sized gap, you could get a bus through there (under the arches).
Have you set sail, today or any other?
do you harbour hopes, or fears?
is your port of calling awaiting you?
or, are you drifting out to sea?
we never truly know until afloat
no grass then becomes greener
leaving our emotions upon deck
the stern homes sentiment
and a bow brimming with ambition
both sides of equal feeling
manufactured to survive
from two ports we truly thrive!

Visit to the June 20, 2015 Motor Muster at Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan. This car show takes place every Father's Day weekend and features vehicles built between 1933 and the late 1970's. I attended with my flickr contact Grant, who was visiting Michigan from his home in California.
