Those straw bales remind me of wooden cotton reels.
Did anyone ever get a wooden cotton reel, a pencil, a match stick, a slice of candle and a rubber band and make a vehicle that could race across the floor? Or combine several cotton reels to make a more powerful vehicle?
Have I got to make one and photograph it to show you what it is like? Fifty years ago I would have said, "What's a PlayStation?" Now, bet kids say, "What's a cotton reel?"
An old reel of cotton thread on a cotton fabric background.
(Both the height & diameter of the reel are 3.5cm/less than 1.5 inches) HMM!
TOI … MONT-BLANC
Le Mont-Plaisir se dresse majestueux,
Le Mont –Plaisir défie depuis toujours l’éternité
Sommet difficile à gravir !
Sommet difficile à conquérir ! ….
Gloire de temps de temps !
Eternel le difficile à défier !
Chemin de Cythère recherché ….
Eden tant et tant souhaité….
Ciel ! qu’il fait rêver
Ciel ! qu’il fait fantasmer
Ciel ! qu’il fait parler
Ciel ! qui fait pleureur
Si le guide avec son pic bien planté
Vous-même hardiment en son fait
Si le simple randonneur, tendre penseur
Sans trop de mots, herboriseur ,vous mène à lui
A son sommet !
Là-haut où tout un chacun domine le monde,
Seul !
Conquérant du ciel et de la terre,
Loin de tout ce qui n’est pas nature !
Sérénité….
Mais dites-moi belles grimpeuses ,
Vous qui avez de lui tant palabré
Laquelle vraiment en toute sincérité
A vu réellement se lever l’astre solaire au septième ciel ?

Although not too bad this time, when fishing line spills off the reel it can be disastrous.

Film is still alive in the movies, with a modest percentage of features still shot on film, even if every step between the editing room and the big screen is digital. If you know where to look, a handful of theatres still run film at least occasionally (the closest house still showing the reel thing exclusively, mostly in 35mm with the rest in 16mm, is about 120 miles [193km] from home). The same slogan applies to still photography, as well.
Of course, the message could be read as an order to go out and record people and animals going about their usual (and sometimes unusual) ways on any convenient movie device you have.
(In case you wonder, the irony of taking a digital picture of a hat promoting genuine film is not lost on me.)
I've wanted to take a photo like this for ages, and I had a chance when I visited Beckford Silk.

This mighty water hose reel uses the farmer to irrigate his field.
The hose has a diameter of 100 mm (3,93 inch) and is felt to be infinitely long
