I am fascinated by the interconnectivity within nature. Everything must be connected to thrive and for trees, there's even a name for it: mycorrhizal networks. According to Wikipedia, its "an underground network found in forests and other plant communities, created by the hyphae of mycorrhizal fungi joining with plant roots. This network connects individual plants together." They can even send out distress signals and alter their behavior in response.
The trick for me then, was how to photograph this. Our walk through a west coast old growth forest gave me at least a partial answer, which I've shown here.
Red Bottlebrush.
I have to thank my Australian friends for lending me some of their national flora to grow in my front garden where they seem to love the sunshine. The Callistemons are interesting plants, but very prickly with sharpy spikes at the end of the leaves. Roo-proofing I guess.
This is one of two close-ups for Macro Wednesday, both in colour. I hope to publish a monochrome one tomorrow of a different view.
I love the abstract nature of this image... all blurry bits.
And both of today's are suitable for my 20-minute edit challenge I have set myself :)
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Mittwochsmakro :)
Network Rail's 950001 working 2Q08 BTM to Plymouth (via many places) passing Wanstrow on the freight-only line from Merehead Quarry
The artist is a receptacle for the emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.
- Pablo Picasso
Aaaaah! :D
Thank you so much for the latest explore! I am so happy that you like the pictures as well as I do :)
I took my macro lense with me and made some pictures. The mosquitos loved me! :D
Thanks for your support and have a nice weekend!:)
While disconnected from the national rail network the Georgia State Railroad Museum does offer short rides around the grounds of the former Central of Georgia Railroad shop complex. Consisting of a 44 tonner and a home built 'coach' on a flat car the ride leaves from beside the old storehouse and then pulls over a diamond on a tail track leading toward the long gone bridge that once connected to the mainline. Then they reverse direction and back on to the operating turntable in front of the roundhouse where they are spun almost 360 degrees and then shove off on another track leading back ovee the diamond around the curve and backing inside the old paint shop to view equipment stored and under restoration there. Then the whole process is reversed and narration is given along the way making for a very well done experience despite the tiny actual length of the ride.
Seen here pulling off the turntable with the 2 PM train ride is Savannah Central 7069. This GE 44-tonner was blt. Dec. 1942 for the US Army and later served the Air Force before being sold to the Claremont and Concord in 1987 after their shop fire destroyed three of their units. Renumbered as CCRR 30 (2nd) it worked for the little New Hampshire pike until being sold in 2008.
Overall the GSRM was much better and more interesting than I expected and if you appreciate railroad history and old structures then this is well worth an hour or two of your time if you ever find yourself in this grand old southern city. To learn a bit about the museum check out their official website here:

The city of Savannah was the headquarters of two roads, the Central of Georgia and the Savannah and Atlanta. The latter was swallowed up by its much larger neighbor in 1951 which itself was acquired by the giant Southern Railway in 1963.

Tétouan is famed for its fine craftsmanship and musical delicacy and has been part of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network in the area of Crafts and Folk Art since 2017. Its cultural heritage is the product of the interaction between different cultural influences throughout centuries. It is mainly characterized by its Andalusian style and way of living but both Berber, Jewish and Colonial Spanish influences are present too.
The streets are fairly wide and straight, and many of the houses belonging to aristocratic families, descendants of those expelled from Al-Andalus by the Spanish Reconquista, possess marble fountains and have groves planted with orange trees. Within the houses and riads the ceilings are often exquisitely carved and painted in Hispano-Moresque designs, such as are found in the Alhambra of Granada, and the tile-work for which Tetuan is known may be seen on floors, pillars and dados. The city has seven gates which were closed at night up until early 20th century. Many Sufi Zawiyas are scattered inside the walled old city.

Network Rail 97302 & 97303 were scheduled to stop on Platform 2 at Bank Quay last night so I made the move to record. On arrival the signalman let us know that it was being terminated here and would arrive in the Up Goods loop, after which set back and be stabled in the NCL siding.
