The oldest part of the church is Anglo-Saxon, stone built in the 9th century, replacing an older wood and mud building. The nave was without aisles and two of its original windows are preserved in the Anglo-Saxon walling at the west end of the nave. These were unglazed and were closed in bad weather by wooden shutters wedged into a rebate cut into the outer edge of the window. High up in the north wall of the nave are three Anglo-Saxon circular windows, probably the upper storey. The ring of holes drilled round them held wattle rods used in the construction of the windows.

 

Aisles were first added in the 12th century. On each side of the nave two low arched openings pierced through the existing walls gave access to the aisles. These openings were swept away when the present arcade was put in in 1812, but the Norman angle-shafts to the responds can be seen in the wall at each end of the arcade. In the 15th century wider aisles were built, the Norman south doorway moved out to its present position and a porch was built. At the east end of each aisle is a squint giving a view of the altar. One of these is a very rare squint passage which, prior to the installation of choir pews, would have allowed access to the altar. In the North aisle the west wall contains a 13th century lancet window. The south wall of this aisle was at first the outside wall of the church and the rough area of plaster above the Anglo-Saxon window is the original exterior plaster of the Anglo-Saxon church. The wooden box chest is dated 1634. There are some medieval tiles (13th-14th century) on the floor near it and also a few in the south aisle.

 

The wooden balcony in the nave is the 15th century rood loft, one of the very few which have survived. When removed, probably early in the reign of Elizabeth I, it was carefully hidden behind a lath and plaster covering against the east wall of the nave, discovered there in 1812 and since repainted. The wooden screen below the loft is Victorian.

 

The tower is 15th century. On its floor stands the Norman font (early 12th century). The Font Figure has long been the subject of speculation and debate. However, recent research identifies the carving as being that of St Michael, on an original Saxon font, over-cut by Norman carvings and 16th century desecration. St Michael is also depicted on the font at Winterbourne Monkton, but the Avebury font carving is far earlier than that of Winterbourne Monkton and the saint is depicted as holding a crozier- not a symbol of Episcopal power but rather cosmic, supernatural power. The carvings show two serpents with twisted tails, their heads turned towards the figure of a bishop or Archangel Michael holding a crozier; popular pictures in the middle-ages showed Christ trampling on the dragons of evil and sin. It is also worth noting that the tree, carved in one piece, 12 pillars of wood/ tree trunks circling the font contains a wonderful array of birds.

Abrera (Baix Llobregat, Catalonia)

A sculpture that represents an enormous steel "porró" four and a half meters high, a symbol of the history of the town.

In the 1950s, Abrera was known for the "porrons", given that the hostels on the old N-II highway offered free wine to the traveler who could and would like to lift with just one hand some heavy-leaved "porrons"..

The new rebate roundabout is a symbolic memory of the agricultural past and the tradition of the "porrons" for which the town was known.

Which has re located to Mansfield Road Nottingam..

 

This is as good a time to tell those who showed an interest in getting their own beautiful photography on a wall canvas or any type of print - that my two canvases arrived from Grange Print and are totally superb - well made with a deep rebate and superb colour rendition exactly as seen on my Dell monitor and I could not be more impressed and would highly recommend them.

They are a local Nottingam family firm that has suffered because of the pandemic and are going through a bad time because of Covid 19 but their prices very competitive and I’m pleased to say the canvases are faultless.....

St. John the Baptist Church is a Mediaeval (11th century) Church in Edlingham, Alnwick, Northumberland, England, listed Grade I for special architectural or historic interest.

 

The church is mostly Norman, from two periods, the late 11th - early 12th Century and late 12th century. The defensible 3-stage west tower was built about 1300 and is described by Historic England as having a stepped chamfered plinth, band above plinth, and chamfered set-back below squat belfry. Lower stage has small rebated lancet on south only, the upper stages slatted chamfered loops except on east, which shows weathering of old high-pitched roof. Low pyramidal roof.

 

The church is adjacent to Edlingham Castle, a 13th-century castle with 16th-century battlements and defences.

The famous birch tree triangle in the winter garden. When I’ve captured it before it was in winter, when it’s packed with people, and difficult to get a clear shot. In spring, I was the only person there, so could take all the time in the world lining up the right tree.

St James church is a Grade 1 listed building in the town of Avebury in Wiltshire. It sits adjacent to Avebury Manor and within 100 metres of the famous Avebury stone circle.

 

The oldest part of the church is Anglo-Saxon, believed to have one built in the 9th century from stone to replace an older wood and mud structure. Windows were unglazed and were closed in bad weather by wooden shutters wedged into a rebate cut into the outer edge of the window.

 

Aisles were first added in the 12th century. On each side of the nave two low arched openings pierced through the existing walls gave access to the aisles.

 

The tower is 15th century. On its floor stands the Norman font (early 12th century). The Font Figure has long been the subject of speculation and debate. However, recent research identifies the carving as being that of St Michael on an original Saxon font, over-cut by Norman carvings and 16th century desecration.

A revisit of a shot I took 2 years ago, this time with a full-frame sensor (and earlier in the morning). Enticed by a significant rebate and a free battery pack/grip, I traded in the D7100 for a D810.

 

I haven't had much time to use it (aside from a few shots of our cats, this is my first real go with it), but my initial impressions are positive. Not that is matters to me, but the mirror slap is much quieter than that of the D750; ergonomically, I love the dedicated AF-ON button; the built-in eyepiece shutter is much appreciated---no more searching my pockets for that elusive little plastic cover! The fact that my trusty wireless remote shutter release is not compatible with the D810 was a surprise, but I'm delighted with the build quality of the 10-pin connector on the front of the body---which is threaded so you can sturdily screw-in a cabled remote---and with the fact that the Nikon MC-36A cabled remote does not require a battery if you're not using it as a timer.

 

I have no quibbles at all with my D750, but my plan now is to convert it to IR. Really looking forward to that!

Mid 1990's. Sarah was studying photography and asked me to do a swap shoot with her. She shot me and I shot her.

Bronica ETRSi with 75mm lens on FP4. Testing digital camera scanning with my GFX100s and Tamron SP 90mm f2.8 macro lens. soft lines down each side are glare in scanning. The Lomography film holders leave the film rebate/edges in the frame for effect but, if you want sharp clear shots, that's not useful. Given this was a scan test, that was a learning and I now only use my film scanner holders for this.

Check out this BLOG I made last night. I thought it would be cool to share the deals I come across with and for you my friends to share the ones you find too. Right? I will try to update this blog everyday - whatever deals, coupons, etc. I find online. And yes, I got my DSLR at $300 below its Costco price - thanks to coupons and instant rebates :D.

The third in a trilogy of a particular tree during a small recent snowfall. I took a lot of shots of that tree because I try different focal lengths and compositions. The sun and shade kept altering too. I used to take a single shot and move on but nowadays enjoy 'working ' the scene. For the first time in 12 years I sent for a canvas yesterday of one of the tree in snow shots because I responded to a plea from a local print firm - the firm that printed a canvas for me about 12 years ago. A family firm that claimed it wouldn't survive the pandemic without more orders. The offer is similar to many 90% off blurb till Sunday so a 20x30 inch canvas with a mirror edge 40cm deep plus a fixing kit and with some finish on to protect the canvas came out at about £30 something plus delivery - free on orders of over £50 Now my previous canvas is exactly as delivered 12 years ago which is precisely as seen on my PC screen so hopefully it turns out as good. Its from Grange Print which delivers all over the country. They have no idea I will mention the name of course but I felt as it was local to me it wouldn't break the bank so I ordered a Cornish print too and got free delivery then :) £64 delivered for two 20x30ins canvases with a deep rebate plus fixings can't be bad. I will update on what they turn out like...didn't really need them but family firms are going to the wall due to the pandemic...

Saké is a traditional Japanese liquor made from rice and water. It is produced from a fermentation and filtration process. Known in the west as “Saké” but in Japan as "Nihonshu”, Saké is a general term for alcohol.

The fermented Saké is initially a milky colour but is filtered by pressing through a mesh to produce a clear liquid. The Japanese production of Saké is an ancient tradition with evidence as far back as the 3rd century B.C. As with so many Japanese traditional practices, Saké has its own specialised ceramics. The central shape being the Tokkuri or Saké bottle.

These containers were developed into a ceramic art form and many were produced by small family potteries. The majority were produced as earthenware specifically known to the Japanese as “stone textured”.

As today, when the customer returned the empty Tokkuri to the brewer, he received a rebate on the refill! The Tokkuri were constantly recycled and used for oil, lamp oil, vinegar and for a wide range of domestic uses. In keeping with this tradition, The Antique & Vintage Table Lamp Co have recycled the Tokkuri now seen on their site as table lamps, robust and full of character.

Zu den Rebutien gehören ca. 20 Arten, sie bilden vom späten Frühjahr bis zum zeitigen Sommer besonders hübsche, kräftig gefärbte Blüten.

Rebutia is a plant genus of small to dwarf plants in the family of cacti (Cactaceae). Rebates are suitable as a small-scale genus very well to room culture. To the Rebutia are about 20 species, they form from the late spring to the early summer particularly pretty, strongly colored flowers

First trial film in my new toy, a Minolta Autocord, for use when the Mamiya is too heavy to cart around. Also first go at Caffenol CL cold start. Kentmere 100, Caffenol CL-CS, 15C starting temperature, 60 minutes.

I bought this years ago at an antiques place, but never could think of a good arrangement, because I always had it face down. It looks much better like this, and I added steam from a steam cleaner. I've done this technique before with digital, where you can keep retaking until you nail it. On film I allowed myself only one frame, and amazingly it worked! A grid lights the iron from the side, and a snoot from behind to backlight the steam.

Oh happy day! I finally found a local source to buy these natural colored eggs. My local farm, Peterson Farms, has them and seriously what's not to love about these eggs?

 

Another couple of fun things I am excited about - taxes are done! Refund, refund, thanks to the rebate for converting to solar power. Also, we finally got the first electric bill after our solar was hooked up and it is about $9 a month. Hooray! Let that sun shine! Finally, I am going to get my new blog started, I'll update my profile as soon as it's live.

A deposit of copper bearing ore 14km southeast of Duchess at Trekelano was exploited by the Hampden Co for use at its Kuridala smelter. The ore body was one of the richer ones in the Cloncurry area, averaging around 13% copper and lesser amount of silver and gold. Trekelano ore was particularly valuable as a smelting aid.

 

The deposit was first worked in about 1906 in a small way, mostly for development work, and gradually increased its output of economical volumes by 1915. In time, the mine was equipped with a semi-marine type Babcock & Wilcox boiler, a Walker geared winding engine, Fraser & Chambers compressor, electric light from a 40hp Hornsby gas engine and wood producer, a picking plant, and ore bins. Narrow gauge tramways were used to move the ore to the dumps to the loading state and to fart firewood to the boiler house. Associated facilities were a change room, an engine room, a boiler shed, magazines, offices, stores, and staff quarters. At its peak, the mine employed 60 men. A school and post office were provided from 1918 and these remained viable until 1928.

 

When the railway was extended from Malbon to Duchess, the company began sending Trekelano ore to Duchess using a traction engine and wagons. This arrangement was not satisfactory in the long term so as soon as the railway was extended from Duchess to Dajarra, the company immediately took steps to lay a connecting tramway. The link was 12.3km in length.

 

The line was funded and built by the company under the Tramways Act. Engineering specifications were based on QR standards but were more economical in regard to the road bed and ballasting. The company sourced the rails and sleepers from QR and secured them on time payment based on a rebate from a premium placed on every ton carried. The company also paid the line maintenance fees.

 

Construction commenced on the 10th of September 1917 some 7.5km from Duchess at 553 miles and 21 chains, later known as Juenburra. Accommodation comprised a loop siding on the left from which was laid the branch proper which consisted of a curve to the southeast where another loop was placed on the right. From here the line continued southeast to the mine, which was 130 rail kilometres from Cloncurry.

 

A passenger service was offered but it was minimally supported because the Trekelano community had a road coach service to Duchess station. The coach departed Duchess at 7am on Monday and Friday for a same day return. Passenger rail journeys were around 200 per year to 1921 and then tailed off to virtually nothing, ceasing altogether soon after.

 

From 1941 the train day became a Monday and was worked by the Cloncurry-Dajarra-Cloncurry weekly mixed running on a Sunday-Monday overnight rest schedule. Ore loadings had dropped by half at this time to around 3500 tons due to shortages of labour and machinery spare parts. One train a week sufficed. Loadings diminished even further to less then 2000 tons by 1943. The mine closed that year and the train service ceased at this time. A small community remained until the end, and this included several school aged children who were driven to Duchess each day for their education.

 

The mine owners retired to the coast and after the war put the mine and tramway on the market. There were no takers for the assets as a going concern so the plant was sold for scrap. The rails were purchased by the North Eton Sugar Mill and were removed by 1947. The telephone pole line was dismantled at the same time. The sleepers had no value and were left in situ. The official closure of the tramway is the 14th of May 1947.

 

The original Trekelano mine produced 220 000 tons of ore over its lifetime to yield 20 000 tons of copper and 3000 oz of gold. In the 1990s the site was gone over by the drivers of Mineral Commodities NL to locate and estimated 400 000 tonnes of 2.2% copper and 0.6 grams/tonne of gold. The deposit was reopened in 2005 by Osborne Mines and worked as a massive pit, this development swallowing the remains of the original mine and tramway. The Trekelano ore was carted to a concentrating plant at Mount Osborne, south of Selwyn, and the treated ore despatched by rail through to Phosphate Hill.

 

The mine is no longer in use.

Illinois Central SW14 1200 is the oldest unit on Canadian National's locomotive roster - or it was, until it was sold recently. It's sitting outside the Fond du Lac roundhouse with other switchers, also sold and off the CN roster. Stacks are capped with Menards five-gallon buckets, leading one to wonder if the buyer received an 11% rebate.

At first I was annoyed when the lady with the dog walked into the frame as I flaffed about putting the filter on and focusing. However, I thought it could make an interesting foreground interest, and seeing the result, I'm glad I didn't wait until she left.

Our good friend Amanda went out shopping with me yesterday. I was going out to pick up a like new in box Canon ST-E2 wireless transmitter from a local store, I was all happy because someone just came in and sold all of his Canon gear for a Leica M8 (nice camera) and so I got my ST-E2 for $170.

 

After the salesperson remarking the guy had dumped his whole kit, I asked half jokingly he didn't happen to sell a Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L did he ( I knew Amanda loved my 24-70mm and wanted one of her own... )... he remarked "in fact he did, and it had basically never been used", Amanda asked how much... He said $950, but since the guy never submitted the rebate for the lens she could get $50 off the lens since she was buying it from an authorized Canon reseller... It took her only about 20 seconds to make up mind... he hadn't gotten a used 24-70mm in since I bought mine from him used well over a year ago.

 

...needless to say Amanda is a very, very happy girl. Quite an improvment over her 18-55mm kit lens.

Lighting Details: Two Photogenic 1250 strobes, at a 45 degree angle to the right with a Photogenic 4'x'3' softbox about 2.5 ft. away from the subject. The second Photogenic 1250 strobe 5' away to the left of the subject and powered down a bit to only provide fill lighting. Lighting triggered by Pocket Wizard plus units.

I went to Anglesey Abbey to finish off a test roll in the Autocord, and also to capture the main building with the wildflower meadow in the foreground. The meadow and weather were great for capturing it, but unfortunately it was clad in ugly scaffolding, typical! But still, there are other views and details to capture here, including the mill, and soon wished I’d brought some more rolls of film.

How Solar Works:

There are no moving parts in solar cells to degrade performance over time. Solar cells are semiconductors. The sun’s rays, even on cloudy days, are absorbed by silicon material in the cells. This energy activates electrons allowing them to move freely – creating usable energy.

 

The solar electrical system is connected to the utility grid through a standard meter. It tracks net power usage and spins backward (producing credits) when production exceeds usage.

 

The inverter takes the DC current created by the solar panels and electronically converts it to AC power for use throughout your home.

 

If you finance your system, your monthly payment may be completely covered by the reduction in your electricity bill. From day one, a Marin Solar system adds value to your home, ensuring your decision makes financial sense both today and in the future.

I’m not actually happy with this arrangement, I feel it would be better without the silver cup on the right, as it makes an even number of objects, would be better balanced with an odd number. Also, I think the objects should be closer together, and I should have cropped in closer. Let me know what you think.

As we are slowly opening up here in Ontario Canada we stopped in Baysville on our short roadtrip.. You can still travel if you are smart about it. All photos taken with my iPhone11pro. The dam I was using the app Spectre. (if you don't already have it why not. Its awesome). I added a light yellow tint, and added a film grain to it. I wanted it to look nostalgic. What do you all think..good or bad.
