A story of Sicily: the Sicilian Gandhi (but he was not Sicilian ...).
This photographic story is connected, at least in part, with the previous one, whose link is represented by the nephew of the painter Robert Kitson, Miss Daphne Phelps: in life she was a psychiatric social worker (she collaborated with Anna Freud, daughter by Sigmund Freud), on the death of his uncle in 1948 he moved to Sicily to take care of Casa Cuseni, having inherited it: initially he wanted to sell it and then return to England, instead he ended up falling in love with Taormina and Sicily, deciding to stay there for the rest of his life. Daphne ran Casa Cuseni welcoming paying guests, there are many illustrious names of artists, writers, well-known personalities who have stayed there: Danilo Dolci was one of these guests, and it is precisely about him that I wish to speak. He was born in 1924 in Sesana (Trieste), after a somewhat eventful life, in 1952 he moved to Trappeto (between Palermo and Trapani), a country among the poorest and most disadvantaged in Italy: that same year the first of numerous fasts, going to bed and fasting in the bed of a child who died of malnutrition, a protest that will end only when the authorities undertake to build a sewer. Danilo Dolci continues with numerous initiatives, from the publication of a book ("Banditi a Partinico", which makes public opinion aware of the poor living conditions of western Sicily, to this book and many others will follow), to the "strike at reverses ”, when the workers went on strike, hundreds of unemployed began to work to reactivate an abandoned municipal road, an initiative that was then stopped by the police; Dolci also initiates an activity of denunciation of the mafia phenomenon and its relations with politics. There are numerous certificates of esteem and solidarity that he receives from important personalities from Italy and abroad, but despite this, for others Danilo Dolci is a dangerous subversive, to be hindered, denigrated, locked up in prison. Yet Dolci does not pose as a guru, boss, or teacher, his working method is based on the conviction that change is based on the involvement and direct participation of those concerned, his idea of progress enhances local culture and skills; he tries, working closely with the people and the most disadvantaged and oppressed groups of western Sicily, to free the dormant creativity in every person, calling this research "maieutic", a term coming from philosophy, precisely from Socratic maieutics: it is "the 'art of the midwife ", every educational act is to bring to light all the inner potentialities of the one who wants to learn, like a mother who wants to give birth to her own child from her womb, so no to notions imparted a priori, yes to help the student to bring their knowledge to light, using dialogue as a tool; however, Socratic maieutics is unidirectional, while in Danilo Dolci's "reciprocal maieutics", knowledge comes out of experience and its sharing, therefore it presupposes the reciprocity of communication. During meetings with farmers and fishermen, the idea was born to build the dam on the Jato River, which is important for the economic development of the area, but also to remove a powerful weapon in the hands of the mafia, an instrument of power which controlled the few available water resources; however the request for "water for all" will be heavily hindered, popular mobilizations and long fasts will be necessary to finally see the project realized: now the dam exists, and others have been built, thus modifying the lives of thousands of people, with the development of numerous companies and cooperatives. Among the many activities of Dolci, thanks to the contribution of international experts, the experience of the Mirto Educational Center, attended by hundreds of children, should be mentioned. Returning to Daphne Phelps and Casa Cuseni, here is a lithograph by Tono Zancanaro, dedicated to the birth of one of Danilo Dolci's daughters, but, among the most important, there is a correspondence between the pacifist philosopher Bertrand Russel and Daphne Phelps, in which the English thinker invited Robert Kitson's niece to participate in the gatherings of progressive intellectuals and literary and scientific personalities of the time, among them, besides Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre and Carlo Levi, there was Danilo Dolci, sociologist, educator, still recognized today as one of the most important figures of nonviolence worldwide.
post Scriptum:
- the images with Danilo Dolci come from the Casa Cuseni archive: they are cuttings from original periodicals, often full pages, from English newspapers, carefully preserved by Miss Daphne Phelp; these images were also taken by photographing some pages of James McNeish's book, "Fire under the ashes - The life of Danilo Dolci";
- the photographs taken in various countries of Sicily, are prior to the covid-19 pandemic;
- thanks to the surgeon colleague dr. Franco Spadaro and his kind wife, Mrs. Mimma Cundari, owners of Casa Cuseni (declared in 1998, Italian National Monument), for their hospitality and availability, having made the Danilo Dolci archive available to me.
Una storia di Sicilia: il Gandhi siciliano (ma siciliano non era…).
Questo racconto fotografico, è connesso, almeno in parte, con quello precedente, il cui anello di congiunzione è rappresentato dalla nipote del pittore Robert Kitson, la signorina Daphne Phelps: lei nella vita era una assistente sociale psichiatrica (lei collaborava con Anna Freud, figlia di Sigmund Freud), alla morte dello zio nel 1948 si trasferì in Sicilia per occuparsi di Casa Cuseni, avendola ereditata: inizialmente la voleva vendere per poi ritornarsene in Inghilterra, invece finì con l’innamorarsi di Taormina e della Sicilia, decidendo di restarvi per il resto della sua vita. Daphne gestiva Casa Cuseni accogliendo ospiti paganti, numerosi sono i nomi illustri di artisti, scrittori, note personalità che vi hanno alloggiato: Danilo Dolci è stato uno di questi ospiti, ed è proprio di lui che desidero parlare. Egli nasce nel 1924 a Sesana (Trieste), dopo una vita un po’ movimentata, nel 1952 si trasferisce a Trappeto (tra Palermo e Trapani), un paese tra i più poveri e disagiati d’Italia: quello stesso anno inizia il primo di numerosi digiuni, coricandosi e digiunando nel letto di un bimbo morto per denutrizione, protesta che terminerà solo quando le autorità si impegneranno a costruire una fogna. Danilo Dolci prosegue con numerose iniziative, dalla pubblicazione di un libro (“Banditi a Partinico”, che mette a conoscenza dell’opinione pubblica delle misere condizioni di vita della Sicilia occidentale, a questo libro poi ne seguiranno molti altri), allo “sciopero alla rovescia”, quando i lavoratori fecero sciopero, centinaia di disoccupati si misero a lavorare per riattivare una strada comunale abbandonata, iniziativa però poi fermata dalla polizia; Dolci avvia anche una attività di denuncia del fenomeno mafioso e dei suoi rapporti con la politica. Numerosi sono gli attestati di stima e solidarietà che egli riceve da importanti personalità provenienti dall’Italia e dall’estero, ma nonostante ciò per altri Danilo Dolci è un pericoloso sovversivo, da ostacolare, denigrare, chiudere in prigione. Eppure Dolci non si atteggia né a santone, capo, od un maestro, il suo metodo di lavoro è basato sulla convinzione che il cambiamento è basato sul coinvolgimento e diretta partecipazione degli interessati, la sua idea di progresso valorizza la cultura e le competenze locali; egli cerca, lavorando a stretto contatto con la gente e le fasce più disagiate ed oppresse della Sicilia occidentale, di liberare la creatività sopita in ogni persona, chiamando tale ricerca “maieutica”, termine proveniente dalla filosofia, precisamente dalla maieutica socratica: è “l’arte della levatrice”, ogni atto educativo è far venire alla luce tutte le potenzialità interiori di colui che vuole imparare, al pari di una madre che vuol far nascere la propria creatura dal suo grembo, quindi no a nozioni impartite a priori, si ad aiutare lo studente a portare alla luce la propria conoscenza, usando il dialogo come strumento; però, la maieutica socratica è unidirezionale, mentre nella “maieutica reciproca” di Danilo Dolci, la conoscenza viene fuori dall’esperienza e dalla sua condivisione, quindi presuppone la reciprocità della comunicazione. Nel corso di riunioni con contadini e pescatori, nasce l’idea di costruire la diga sul fiume Jato, importante per lo sviluppo economico della zona, ma anche togliere un’arma potente in mano alla mafia, che faceva del controllo delle poche risorse idriche disponibili uno strumento di potere, però la richiesta di “acqua per tutti” verrà pesantemente ostacolata, saranno necessarie le mobilitazioni popolari, lunghi digiuni, per vedere infine realizzato il progetto: ora la diga esiste, ed altre sono state poi realizzate, modificando in tal modo la vita di migliaia di persone, con lo svilupparsi di numerose aziende e cooperative. Da menzionare, tra le tante attività di Dolci, grazie al contributo di esperti internazionali, l’esperienza del Centro Educativo di Mirto, frequentato da centinaia di bambini. Ritornando a Daphne Phelps e Casa Cuseni, qui è presente una litografia di Tono Zancanaro, dedicata alla nascita di una delle figlie di Danilo Dolci, ma, cosa tra le più importanti, esiste un carteggio tra il filosofo pacifista Bertrand Russel e Daphne Phelps, nel quale il pensatore inglese invitava la nipote di Robert Kitson a partecipare ai raduni di intellettuali progressisti e personalità letterarie e scientifiche dell’epoca, tra di loro, oltre Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre e Carlo Levi, c’era Danilo Dolci, sociologo, educatore, ancora oggi riconosciuto tra le figure di massimo rilievo della nonviolenza a livello mondiale.
post scriptum:
- le immagini con Danilo Dolci provengono dall'archivio di Casa Cuseni: sono ritagli di giornali originali dell'epoca, spesso pagine intere, provenienti da quotidiani inglesi, accuratamente conservati dalla signorina Daphne Phelp; tali immagini sono state realizzate fotografando anche alcune pagine del libro di James McNeish, "Fire under the ashes - The life of Danilo Dolci";
- le fotografie realizzate in diversi paesi della Sicilia, sono antecedenti alla pandemia da covid-19;
- si ringrazia il collega chirurgo dott. Franco Spadaro e la sua gentile consorte, signora Mimma Cundari, proprietari di Casa Cuseni (dichiarata nel 1998, Monumento Nazionale Italiano), per la loro ospitalità e disponibilità, avendo messo a mia disposizione l'archivio relativo a Danilo Dolci.
This kind of sums up how I've been feeling lately, kind of ghost like. Not in the spooky sense of the word, but more like I'm just faded and floating around in limbo, trying to find my way.
In the past few months I've felt so many ranges of feelings in regards to the direction I want my life to be going, I love my job and the work that I do, but loving a job isn't the same as feeling passionate about it. I'm passionate about creating art but i just don't know if pursuing it is the right path for me.
float on I suppose.....
Taken years ago at the end of East Long Island Road in North Grand Pre. Tens of thousands of Sandpipers had been sleeping on the beach below the dyke facing Boot Island when a falcon appeared and started to dive on them. Once the flock took off the falcon flew straight through it and snagged several Sandpipers. I remember the sound of their wings was like the wind, and the motion of the cloud they formed was really something to see as it billowed and flexed in response to the attack of the falcon. After the falcon had left with its meal, the flock settled down on the shore again.
The mudflats of the upper Bay of Fundy is a great place to photograph masses of Sandpipers as they feed in preparation for their fall migration. Only once have I been in the right place at the right time to see this happening.
This was taken before the arrival of the falcon with a Nikon F3 and a borrowed Nikon 500mm f/4 P lens. Swiveling the camera around for a minute, seeking an interesting composition that wouldn't look like a drab lumpy carpet, I spotted this rock with two birds asleep on top and another pair in front. I thought it a bit unusual that the rock sat in the middle of an area of bare ground, almost as if the birds were avoiding it for some reason.
This is an image from an Ektachrome 400 slide copied with a Nikon D3500 camera, Micro-Nikkor 55mm f/3.5 lens fitted with a Nikon 4T close-up lens, with a Sigma 1.6x achromatic close-up lens on the 4T. The slide carrier from a Spiratone Bello-Dupliscope was mounted on the Sigma. Lighting was provided by a 5000k LED bulb in a small goose-neck table lamp. A large ground glass screen was placed between the lamp and the slide carrier.

Di Moltebeere ist eine mehrjährige Pflanze und erreicht Wuchshöhen zwischen 5 und 25 Zentimetern. In Gesellschaft mit Zwergsträuchern wie Rauschbeere und Sumpfporst werden auch Wuchshöhen bis 45 cm beobachtet. Aus einer unterirdischen Grundachse treiben aufrechte, unverzweigte, nicht verholzende und unbedornte Stängel. Die wechselständigen Laubblätter sind schwach handförmig, fünf- bis siebenlappig und am Rand gesägt. Am Blattansatz befindet sich ein wenige Millimeter großes Nebenblatt. Die Blätter sind bis zu 20 Zentimeter breit. Im Herbst verfärbt sich das Laub stark rot.
Ab Mitte Mai bilden sich weiße, gelegentlich auch rötliche, einzeln endständige Blüten mit je vier bis acht, meist fünf Kron- und Kelchblättern. Sie sind kurzlebig und bei Regen schnell entblättert. Die Pflanze ist zweihäusig diözisch. Die weibliche Blüte trägt zahlreiche grünliche Fruchtblätter, die männliche Blüte viele Staubfäden mit gelben Staubbeuteln. Die Bestäubung erfolgt durch Insekten. Die Blütezeit reicht bis Ende Juni, entsprechend ungleichzeitig ist auch die Reife der Früchte. Bis zum Juli reifen Sammelsteinfrüchte mit einer Größe bis zu 2,5 Zentimeter,[1] bestehend aus bis zu 25 Steinfrüchtchen. Die reifenden Früchte sind zunächst grünlich und vollständig von den Kelchblättern umschlossen, dann blassrot, schließlich gelborange. Bei geringer Sonneneinstrahlung wird das rote Stadium übersprungen. Sobald sich die äußeren Blütenhüllblätter von der Frucht wegrollen, ist die Moltebeere reif. Dann ist sie sehr weich und entsprechend schwer zu pflücken. Daher werden oft unreife Früchte gepflückt, die dann an der Sonne nachreifen.e Moltebeere ist eine mehrjährige Pflanze und erreicht Wuchshöhen zwischen 5 und 25 Zentimetern.

The cloudberry is a perennial plant that reaches heights of 5 to 25 centimeters. When planted alongside dwarf shrubs such as bog bilberry and marsh Labrador tea, heights of up to 45 cm are observed. Upright, unbranched, non-woody, and thornless stems emerge from an underground rhizome. The alternate leaves are weakly palmate, five- to seven-lobed, and serrated at the edges. A stipule, only a few millimeters long, is located at the base of each leaf. The leaves are up to 20 centimeters wide. In autumn, the foliage turns a deep red.
From mid-May onward, white, occasionally reddish, solitary terminal flowers appear, each with four to eight, usually five, petals and sepals. They are short-lived and quickly lose their petals in the rain. The plant is dioecious. The female flower bears numerous greenish carpels, while the male flower has many filaments with yellow anthers. Pollination is carried out by insects. The flowering period lasts until the end of June, and the fruit ripens accordingly at different times. By July, aggregate drupes up to 2.5 centimeters in size ripen,[1] consisting of up to 25 drupelets. The ripening fruits are initially greenish and completely enclosed by the sepals, then pale red, and finally yellow-orange. With insufficient sunlight, the red stage is skipped. The cloudberry is ripe as soon as the outer sepals curl away from the fruit. At this stage, it is very soft and correspondingly difficult to pick. Therefore, unripe fruits are often picked, which then ripen in the sun. The cloudberry is a perennial plant and reaches heights of between 5 and 25 centimeters.

While much of the shipyard is abandoned and in complete darkness, this one dry dock was lit as bright as day.
Many thanks to Tim Baskerville for organizing the event. Exploring the shipyard with Andy Frazer.

"The mystery of love is greater than the mystery of death" -- Wilde, 'Salome'.
Brompton Cemetery, London, 1991.
I was happy to find a disk of photographs I took some years back. Larger view.
Sadly this piece of mining history has totally rotted away.... food for the white ants.
______________________________________________
The lease was probably pegged in 1895, the original prospectors unknown, and taken up shortly after by the company.
The lease contained a 30 head battery, although this was replaced later with a 50 head battery at the Englishman lease, at the company's main
mine. The lease contained three shafts down to 230 feet on a reef 2 to 4 feet thick. Between 1899 to 1901 as an example, the mine produced 135 000 pounds money-wise in gold in early Twentieth Century figures. 9000 pounds of this was paid in dividends. To 1925 the mine had produced 12 169 tonnes of ore for 11 665 ounces of gold at 19.17 dwt.
William Thomas was leaning over the shaft in September 1905, when his head was decapitated by a skip being hauled up. The inquest determined no-one was to blame.
Tributers had been at the mine from 1904, in one 12 month period one party obtained 20 000 pounds money wise of gold from the lease. The Cosmopolitan Mine closed in January 1908, and the company ceased activity at the Altona shortly after. The mine was let permanently to tributers, and activity by them was found to 1923.
One source states the following about the mining situation at Kookynie in 1910: 'The massive pile of buildings, the thousand of pounds worth of machinery lying idle on the big mine, the rows of empty shops, and dwellings to be met with on all sides, stand as a striking monument to the vanity of human wishes, and the gullibility on the English mining investor'.
Charles De Bernales purchased the mine in 1915, and applied for continual exemptions. The warden would refuse stating (Bernales) 'had completely shirked his obligations', but Bernales would approach the Mines Department directly, in one case thirteen exemptions were obtained from the department in a six month period. Bernales had begun his campaign for world domination years before in the mining machinery business. It culminated during the 1930's mining boom, when he controlled numerous gold mines. Little mining ever took place at his mines, their ownership and sale was largely for speculation purposes. Dodgey deals between his various holding companies saw him fall from grace in the early 1940's.
Fed up with inactivity at the mine, local residents organised a protest meeting and were successful in gaining control of the mine in 1920. A local syndicate headed by former Kookynie mayor R. O'Connor took over, although activity continued with just tributers.
Little then happens until 1948, when Tommy Barrett takes over the lease. A couple of tributing parties reconditioned the shafts and some ore was taken out later in the year by Colley and party, and Smith and E. Jolly. The lease contained a 3 head mill at this time.
The Altona lease contained Kookynie's own Leaning Tower of Pisa, in the form of the old wooden Altona headframe. The forces of gravity and termites saw this collapse in January 2008, and it is now a pile of timber. Shafts and overgrown battery sands can be seen. The mine is 1 kilometre east north-east of Kookynie, and 200 metres down a track on the south side of the Kookynie-Mount Remarkable Road.
THE BALL OF LIGHT MOVIE IS HERE! : www.denissmith.com.au/about/ball-of-light-movie/
Kyrie and I are working furiously on the Ball of Light shop on the website. I once again had to trawl through the archives looking for stuff.
This Ball of Light shot was a perfect example of it reflecting my mood. I was so happy and feeling so warm this night.
Having the shop up is quite exciting. But oh boy what a massive amount of work! My wife is a genius, and is so passionate.

So I made a minifig collectible series for the 5 years of GoH, unfortunately my ill health prevented me from making enough MOCs to qualify to enter it in the competition. I've taken some pics of my favourite figs.
I created three distinct areas for my "Crescent Peninsula" inhabitants. These are three of the six figs I created for the Purple Mountains region.
On the left is an Albino Orckin, These fearsome fighters form the main body of the Mountain Empress's guard.
The Empress of the Mountain is the ruler of the Crescent mountain range - she holds one of the triforce Crystals that hold the Peninsula together. she is a powerful enchanter and possesses a wicked temper.
The Quartz Mountain RockLord is a summoned elemental, although limited in itntellect he more than makes up for this with his perchant for cruelty and violence.

I got about one more week of summer before heading back to class. I am still working on that MEM52 project at which probably won't get to finish it till later this year. This summer has probably been one of my busiest summer ever, but probably one of my most productive summer since like middle school. I felt like my plans for the summer all came out successful. I will be entering my senior year this coming semester! Can't believe I am already looking at Grad School's. One of good friend left for Med School this morning, I really wish her the best as I know Med School is extremely hard and stressful.
The weather finally starts to feel like somewhat like Fall! aka my favorite season!
gonna take a pics in the coming weeks, and maybe travel a bit far if I have the time.
Have a great weekend! Doing some catchup today....seem like I am always doing catching up.

May 1976 saw members of the Industrial Railways Society enjoying a trip on Cadburys internal railway system. The loco is number 14 a North British 225hp diesel and it is approaching the Midland railway revolving signal, believed to be the last of its type in use. The tracks in the foreground are the Birmingham - Bristol main line, the shot was taken from the canal bank tow path. The prominent Bournville mock Tudor house (Holly Grove) is now obscured from view by trees, all the sidings have long gone and the area is now a nature reserve.
In this re-scan the slide as been removed from the card mount and more of Holly Grove and also the wagon, Cadbury's 350, has been discovered.

On the east side of Glacier by the Blackfeet Indian Reservation there is a huge grove of windswept trees like the ones pictured. After a short hike, you will run into tree after tree, each gnarlier than the last. It was quite the experience. The grove is located on a little plateau overlooking some of Glacier's mountains and you can feel the wind up there that shaped these trees. I visited twice, the second time I wanted to shoot the full moon and was there around 4-5am. Winds were howling and a cold front had came through that night leaving temps in the 20s. I had two down jackets on and probably looked like I was about to climb Everest. The wind is relentless though even on a calm day. This shot was from my first hike up to the trees and it was 'calm', AKA 30mph winds. This was the morning after the lenticular and the light was off the hook again. Actually got lucky, if the sun would have rose about an hour later, sunrise would have just been bland and gray with overcast skies. This was no doubt, one of the best sunrises I have ever seen. Yet, it was the quickest as well. There was some beautiful pre-dawn light, but the real show was when the sky lit up like you see here. 30 seconds later is was gone and there was snow in the air.

Toxicity: Mildly venomous (but non-medically significant to human)
The more stressed this bronzeback gets, the bluer (more blue) it become. The species is most easily identified when its anterior body is inflated in defense : at such times the vivid blue of the interstitial skin (the skin between the scales) is revealed. Though the Elegant Bronzeback also has blue interstitial skin, this appears to be far more intense in the Blue Bronzeback.
Toxicity: Non-venomous
Top view of Namaz From Baitul Mukaram Moshjid,Bangladesh. I took this Jumma Namaz photo from Baitul Mukarram, national mosque of Bangladesh.
Around 40,000 people can pray together.In special Occasions it exceed 1 lakh.
Jumu'ah (in standard Arabic jum`ah; Arabic: صلاة الجمعة ṣalāt al-jum`ah, "Friday prayer") is a congregational prayer (ṣalāt) that Muslims hold every Friday, just after noon in the place of dhuhr. Muslims pray ordinarily five times each day according to the sun's sky path regardless of clock time.[ It is mentioned in the Qurʾān as:
O ye who believe! When the call is proclaimed to prayer on Friday (the Day of Assembly, yawm al-jumʿah), hasten earnestly to the Remembrance of Allah, and leave off business (and traffic): That is best for you if ye but knew!
And when the Prayer is finished, then may ye disperse through the land, and seek of the Bounty of Allah: and celebrate the Praises of Allah often (and without stint): that ye may prosper.
—Qur'an, sura 62 (Al-Jumua), āyāt 9-10
The jumuʿah prayer is half the ẓuhr (dhuhr) prayer, for convenience, preceded by a khuṭbah (a sermon as a technical replacement of the two reduced rakaʿāt of the ordinary ẓuhr (dhuhr) prayer), and followed by a congregational prayer, led by the imām. In most cases the khaṭīb also serves as the imam. Attendance is strictly incumbent upon all adult males who are legal residents of the locality
The muezzin (muʾadhdhin) makes the call to prayer, called the adhan, usually 15–20 minutes prior to the start of Jum'ah. When the khaṭīb takes his place on the minbar, a second adhan is made. The khaṭīb is supposed to deliver two sermons, stopping and sitting briefly between them. In practice, the first sermon is longer and contains most of the content. The second sermon is very brief and concludes with a dua, after which the muezzin calls the iqāmah. This signals the start of the main two rak'at prayer of Jumu'ah.
The communal prayers have higher compliance of worshippers, as compared to the non-communal ritual prayers. In Turkey for example, the ritual prayers are performed regularly by 44%, whereas Friday prayers were regularly attended by 56% (25% responded that they sometimes attended and 19% that they never did).
From hadith:
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "On every Friday the angels take their stand at every gate of the mosques to write the names of the people chronologically (i.e. according to the time of their arrival for the Friday prayer) and when the Imam sits (on the pulpit) they fold up their scrolls and get ready to listen to the sermon."
—Collected by Muhammad al-Bukhari, Sahih al-Bukhari
Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj an-Naysaburi relates that the Islamic prophet Muhammad used to read Surah 87 (Al-Ala) and Surah 88, (Al-Ghashiya), in Eid Prayers and also in Friday prayers. If one of the festivals fell on a Friday, the Prophet would have made sure to read these two Surahs in the prayers.

Photographed on vacation in Ireland in 2013. The Rock of Cashel, one of Ireland's most historic sites, was the seat of the kings of Munster from the 4th century until 1101, when it was presented to the Church. The most important monuments at this site are; Cormac's Chapel, built by Cormac Mac Carthaig, King of Munster , 1127 till 1134, the most remarkable Romanesque Church in Ireland. St. Patrick's Cathedral, which was built in the 13th century and continued in use until 1784. The Castle, the bishop's resience and the Round Tower, built in the 12th century. A replica of St. Patrick's Cross stands on a pedestal of granite at the entrance to the Rock.

View of John Grantham, Sheriff of Newcastle at the opening of Benwell Billiard Saloon, 28 November 1924 (TWAM ref. DF.GRA/1/1).
These images belong to a series of albums documenting John Grantham’s service to the City of Newcastle upon Tyne as its Sheriff 1924-1925 and its Lord Mayor 1936-1937. John Grantham was born in Blyth in 1877 and became a cinema proprietor in Newcastle. He was elected to the City Council in 1912 and became an alderman in 1932. The albums give us an interesting insight into the duties of Lord Mayor and Sheriff as well as a fascinating picture of the times.
2016 is the 800th anniversary of the creation of Newcastle's Mayoralty and Burgesses.

Thanks for visiting Oldratbag another face of Tibet for you.
Drepung was known for the high standards of its academic study, and was called the Nalanda of Tibet, a reference to the great Buddhist monastic university of India.
Old records show that there were two centres of power in Drepung: the so-called lower chamber (Zimkhang 'og ma) associated with the Dalai Lamas-to-be, and the upper chamber (Zimkhang gong ma) associated with the descendants of Sonam Drakpa, an illustrious teacher who died in 1554. . The estate of the Dalai Lamas at Drepung monastery, called Ganden Phodrang, had been constructed in 1518 by Gendun Gyatso Palzangpo (1476–1541), retrospectively named and counted as 2nd Dalai Lama.
Penchen Sönam Drakpa (1478-1554 CE) in 1535 succeeded Gendün Gyatso (1476–1541) on the Throne of Drepung, both of them being major figures in the history of the Geluk tradition. By the time Sönam Drakpa was appointed to the Throne of Drepung (Drepung Tri), he was already a famous Geluk master. He had already occupied the Throne of Ganden (Ganden Tri) and was considered the most prolific and important Geluk thinker of his time. His successor was none other than Sönam Gyatso (1543-1588 CE), the lama who would receive the official title of the Third Dalai Lama (Talé Lama Kutreng Sumpa).
Before his death in 1554, Sönam Drakpa established his own estate, the Upper Chamber (Zimkhang Gongma), which was named because of its location at the top of Drepung, just below the Ngakpa debating courtyard "Ngagpa Dratshang".
As I've said before, one of my goals in photographing birds was to get this particular resident species, the Oak Titmouse. (Second on the list was the White-crowned Sparrow in breeding plumage.) My first two cameras didn't have the range for avian photography of any kind ... well, with the first exception when an Oak Titmouse popped up on a newly planted five foot orange tree right in front of me.
Still, I persisted, and I think I have 15 pretty good images of this titmouse. One in particular was my prize and was the first image I hung on my wall. (flic.kr/p/ufUbT1) That's not the reason that I never posted this image. The reason for that was that I wasn't on SmugMug or later Flickr, and so I just printed this, put it in an album, and there it stayed until this morning.
I was in the archives again, and I must say I really like this shot. The way the tail just clears and follows the curve of the piece of rotten oak which was also used as a granary for Acorn Woodpeckers (which is why I was there taking pictures that day in March). More than that, there appeared to me that there was movement in this pose. He actually had just landed, and was already about to take off again. 1/640th was my go to prep speed, and it worked very well here. The light was good, too. And that's why I'm starting off the week for you (I can look at it any time) with one 3 gram Oak titmouse on a Live Oak (that's the name, not the description).
I've described this bird many times. Let's just let it go with this: The Oak titmouse (Baeolophus inornatus) is a passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. The American Ornithologists' Union split the plain titmouse into the oak titmouse and the juniper titmouse in 1996, due to distinct differences in song, preferred habitat, and genetic makeup. It sleeps in deep cavities, and what better place than a woodpecker hole in an oak or yucca. We are surrounded by thousands of acres of three of the twenty species of oak in California: valley oak, interior live oak, or blue oak. The Valley Oak is the largest oak in the state, and we have 30+ heritage oaks within a quarter mile of my front door. (Heritage oaks are huge, some with canopies 100 feet or more across, 70 feet tall, and with trunks about 25 feet in diameter. How can you tell if one is a "heritage oak?" Easy: every heritage oak is numbered with a metal tag about 8 feet off the ground ... and that's all I'll say. They are also between 200 and 350 years old. And every one has an Oak titmouse in it! I just made that up, but it's where I'd start to photograph these little flitters.)
Most of my pinhole cameras. I have been leaving the take-up can taped to the camera, with a long leader sticking out the right side. Less taping when I'm ready for a new roll of film. more info about the Foosh.
I made the Altoids tin first - it was too fun to stop. The matchbox pinhole cameras are the easiest to make. I have four because I lent two to a local museum show, then made another to display "exploded" so people could see at a glance how they were made. Then I realized I wouldn't have any in the house for 2 months, so I had to make another one.
Added 12-17-11
Here's a summary of info in the comments below:
My pinholes are around .2 mm, using this chart.
Scotch 235 tape is lightproof masking tape. Useful if you don't want any light leaks.
Some people do have success with electric tape - it doesn't work for me.
You can tear gaffer's tape (which I used in all the cameras above) into long strips - about 12 inches by 1 inch. Easier to wrap around between the canister and the matchbox.
This photo appears in the Camera Wiki entry for pinhole cameras - check out that page if you haven't seen it - lots of good info.
Instructions to make the cameras:

A rose is a woody perennial flowering plant of the genus Rosa, in the family Rosaceae, or the flower it bears. There are over a hundred species and thousands of cultivars.
They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing or trailing with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles. Flowers vary in size and shape and are usually large and showy, in colours ranging from white through yellows and reds.
