Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment, and favoring my images. Enjoy the day.
The process in which the seeds of a tropical plant are selected, planted, grown, harvested, separated from the fruit that surrounds them, fermented, washed, dried, hulled, sorted, roasted, ground, and brewed is long and complex. Here we see hot water pouring onto the seeds (called beans, although they are not) after grinding into a coarse powder. A dark infusion, called "coffee" is the final result. A sip of fresh black coffee may not be enough to animate the dead but it certainly makes my day better.
Taken for Macro Mondays "powder".
Another powder day in the Cascade Mountains - the season started off slowly but Feb has been the snowiest month in quite some time with temps much lower than normal

We tried to make a photo of Alessandra with powder flying around - was lots of fun and I think the photos worked out nicely:) I really missed that we did not have a black background, could have done even more)
Press F to like the photo if it appeals to you or leave comment! I am always opened to critique:)
Each shot fired by the USS Alabama’s 16-inch guns needed six bags of powder, each of which weighed almost 100 pounds. This is one of the powder elevators.
Colored powders and tins to put them in are sold by street venders in the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal

The Powder House (Y Cwt Pwdr) dates to the mid-18th Century and takes its name from its original use as a store for the gun powder unloaded from ships for use in the local slate mines.. In approximately 1897, the then redundant gunpowder store was converted into a dwelling house.

The Macro Mondays theme for this week is "Powder" Use this powder to lube wheels of pine wood derby car.
Definitely seem to have got through more of the above than the actual fruit in the last ten days or so... I hope to be putting them away in the cupboard again soon!!!
Sumpter Valley No.19 runs alongside the Powder River with a freight train headed for McEwen. Taken during the Sumpter Valley Railroad photographers weekend.
I made two shelves of some leftover balm(?) wood I had. The room is looking way more cosy already. I wish I had a narrow bench or something to add to it..
Powder is wearing a sweater with a new fabric design I got last week.
"After a quick half-a-dozen bacon sandwiches each, they pulled on their coats and Mrs Weasley took a flowerpot off the kitchen mantelpiece and peered inside.
‘He’s never travelled by Floo powder,’ said Ron suddenly.
[...]
’You must speak clearly, dear,’ Mrs Weasley told Harry."
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Chapter 4

Totally cumbersome, idiotic and backward, this Floo Powder system. I wondered what happened right after they invented it - suddenly every household needed to enlarge its fireplace times three? Imagine arriving in a muggle sized one… Anyway, now we know why the Weasleys have this massive fireplace.
I took some creative liberties here, using dark orange and shape-wise, since the one in the movie is bland and boring. It was important to me to create one different from Marcel’s Gryffindor fireplace but at the same time have something that was simple enough for the Weasleys. Not easy, with the magnificent and intimidating version that his is!
There's a small rug with a Weasley tartan right in front - not sure how practical that might be in the long run with all the ash though.
I do like the arch just above of the opening. It's construction is actually quite simple and uses a couple of clips but it's look is nice. The rug took me a while but it was worth the effort I think. The colors work well and the pattern is nice, too.

This series is obviously heavily inspired by my friend Marcel who did the inspirational undertaking of doing a series of daily builds covering Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone last month. Please follow him as his work is amazing and deserves way more views than it currently has!
Thank you, Marcel, for allowing me to continue what you started. You are indeed a wizard.

Mount Teide
is a volcano on Tenerife in the Canary Islands.
Its 3,718-metre (12,198 ft) summit is the highest point in Spain and the highest point above sea level in the islands of the Atlantic.
At 7,500 m (24,600 ft) from its base on the ocean floor, it is the third highest volcano in the world,

The Powder Mills were built in 1844, a factory for making gunpowder which was built on the open moor, not far from Postbridge. Gunpowder was needed for the tin mines and granite quarries then in operation on the moor. The buildings were widely spaced from one another for safety and the mechanical power for grinding ("incorporating") the powder was derived from waterwheels driven by a leat.
Now known as "Powdermills" or "Powder Mills", there are extensive remains of this factory still visible. Two chimneys still stand and the walls of the two sturdily-built incorporating mills with central waterwheels survive well: they were built with substantial walls but flimsy roofs so that in the event of an explosion, the force of the blast would be directed safely upwards. The ruins of a number of ancillary buildings also survive. A proving mortar—a type of small cannon used to gauge the strength of the gunpowder—used by the factory still lies by the side of the road.
