the Torre dell'Arenella, part of the complex of the Tonnara, Quattro Pizzi etc ... was built in 1852 by Don Vincenzo Florio Sr. (1799-1868), who had called a Dutchman to draw up the project. It served as a windmill or mechanical mill to grind sumac, a grass which, reduced to powder, was indispensable for the tanning of hides.

 

It worked for a few years, the exports were booming, then the workers began to get smart, mixing fake herb powder with that of the precious sumac, the result: the mill closed and business in smoke.

 

The tower also served as a lighthouse, as reported by an old nautical map of the port.

 

Arenella perhaps owes its name to the fine sand that once covered its coast.

la Torre dell'Arenella, facente parte del complesso della Tonnara, Quattro Pizzi etc...fu fatta costruire nel 1852 da Don Vincenzo Florio Sr. (1799-1868), che aveva chiamato un olandese per redigerne il progetto. Ebbe funzione di mulino a vento o meccanico per macinare il sommacco, un'erba, che, ridotta in polvere, era indispensabile per la concia delle pelli.

 

Funzionò per qualche anno, le esportazioni a gonfie vele, poi le maestranze cominciarono a fare i furbi, mescolando polvere di erbe fasulle a quella del prezioso sommacco, risultato: mulino chiuso e affari in fumo.

 

La torre ebbe anche funzione di Faro, come riportato da una vecchia carta nautica del Porto .

 

L'Arenella forse deve il suo nome alla fina sabbia che una volta ricopriva il suo litorale .

  

I don't think this kind of image is possible without the use of infrared. It is pregnant with energy. The box belongs to the Bureau of Meteorology which has an official weather station at Low Head.

 

Weather Report was also the name of a very fine Jazz group, including saxophonist Wayne Shorter. Jazz is actually a nice way of describing infrared photography. Every shot is an improvisation and makes us see things anew.

This 4200 Report Monitor reel-to-reel tape recorder was manufactured by Uher factories in Munich in the early 1980s. It was primarily developed for professional use and was intended for use with 13 cm reels in half-track mode. The housing is made of robust die-cast aluminum, and in addition to numerous technical features, there were also many accessories, such as matching microphones, for use in interviews by reporters. The sound is excellent and enables perfect recordings in hi-fi quality! My device still works well and looks quite good.

Report from a photo trip to Lofoten - 18

 

The terrace of a Rorbu cabin afforded a wonderful view west across Offersøystraumen to Leknes. The Space Weather App had predicted favorable conditions for aurora sightings, and just after 8 p.m. a green band stretched across the sky. In the excitement we didn't have time to turn off the cabin light and so the rocks in the foreground - partly submerged - are illuminated by the light from the Rorbu cabin.

 

The shot didn't require any special editing tricks in post-processing. I basically just used my default raw processing settings in Lightroom with a small increase in brightness and clarity (although the rocks in the foreground required special attention to bring out the details). There was no change of colors.

Reporting, everything is under control, Sir!

I'm currently working on a new skin and lens

The head is the Nova of the Lelutka Revolution line.

It's my favorite!

It takes some time to make each skin into three different brand's heads, but it's fun.

I can't wait to show you.

 

HAIR - Tram

Sir Johann Franz Julius von Haast founder of the Canterbury Museum

The secret is out, and the Canadian internet groups imploded after the release of five SD70ACU's painted to honor the Canadian and United States Armed Forces. Thanks to the team at CP for making this possible, as well as putting on a great ceremony at the Calgary headquarters on Remembrance Day 2019. The 5 meter barrier around the units was a nice touch, as every fan managed to get lots of sunny shots without having to use a people filter.

It's going to be interesting to shoot these units on the road, with the variations in dark and light paint each one will present challenges to the photographer, but its bette rthen dirty red!

L'Hôpital Plaza has been abandoned for nearly two decades. Originally built as a seminary, it also served as a hospital during WW1 and WW2.

Horace was pacing up and down the lounge, I said “what’s up old pal” he responded well tis like this Bri, I phoned Huw Edwards a few days ago at The BBC (Huw and Horace go back a long way, drinking in Tredegar) and asked why there had been no reportage or sightings of ‘The Beast Of Bodmin Moor’ recently.

 

Check what ever search engine you good people use, allegedly the beast is quite a fearsome cat like animal en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beast_of_Bodmin_Moor

Huw responded “well Horace, we have had no information on the beast for some time, would you like to go out and report back”.

 

Horace looked at me with that cute face and asked if we could travel out onto the moor, I said “no problem Horace”, great he responded, I have your brothers Land Rover out in the drive ticking over ready to go.

 

So we rounded up Hoof, got in brothers Land Rover with Horace at the wheel and off we went. We came to this location on the edge of Bodmin Moor, you could hear Horace’s knees knocking, he was out the vehicle calling “here kitty kitty, here kitty kitty”.

 

We then could see the sweat coming off Horace’s brow, he spotted this large Y shaped object, he thought it was the giant wishbone of a dinosaur, which Horace felt the beast must have eaten for breakfast.

 

So Hoof being the only sensible one of the three of us, explained to Horace, this was only a piece of wood which just happened to be pointing at one of the very early China Clay dries, some say it dates back to 1900. Just up over from the chimney is the disused Stannon Clay works which was bought by English China Clays in 1919.

 

We felt that a trip to the nearby Old Inn, at St Breward, was required in order to calm Horace down. At around 720 feet above sea level, it is the highest pub in Cornwall.

 

Wasn’t long Horace was back to his old self, following a few pints, plus he and Hoof were playing spoof with the locals at a social distance in the beer garden.

 

Following H & Hs drinking exploits, guess who ended up driving them home😎

Lower Slaughter is a village in the English county of Gloucestershire, located in the Cotswold district, 4 miles (6.4 km) south west of the town of Stow-on-the-Wold. The village is built on both banks of the River Eye, which also flows through Upper Slaughter. At the west end of the village there is a 19th-century water mill with an undershot waterwheel and a chimney for additional steam power. There is a ford where the river widens in the village and several small stone footbridges join the two sides of the community. While the mill is built of red brick most of the 16th and 17th century homes in the village use Cotswold sandstone and are adorned with mullioned windows and often with other embellishments such as projecting gables. Records exist showing that Lower Slaughter has been inhabited for over 1000 years. The Domesday Book entry has the village name as “Sclostre”. It further notes that in 1066 and 1086 that the manor was in the sheriff's hands. Lower Slaughter Manor, a Grade-II listed 17th-century house, was granted to Sir George Whitmore in 1611 and remained in his family until 1964. The 13th century Anglican parish church is dedicated to St. Mary the Virgin. Much of the current structure was built in 1866; however, the spire and peal of six bells was recently restored. In May 2013 it was reported in the national news that the Parish Council were fiercely opposed to the presence of an icebox tricycle selling ice creams for seven days a week, six months of the year, citing that the trading times were excessive, increased footfall would prevent the grass from growing and that children could climb on the trike and fall into the nearby river.

 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

The Slaughters Country Inn is privately owned and offers a relaxed ambience, a style that is sympathetically balanced between the original features of a 17th Century building and contemporary design. The blend of old and new creates the perfect retreat in a beautiful country location

Annual Report

Completed for: H1studio Singapore

my small cosmos...rice field

Syd and Lucy. Ready for whatever comes next

With tornado watches issued shortly

Before noon Sunday, for the areas

Including, the western region

Of my mental health

And the northern portions of my

Ability to deal rationally with my

Disconcerted precarious emotional

Situation, it's cold out there

Colder than a ticket taker's smile

At the Ivar Theatre, on a Saturday night

Flash flood watches covered the

Southern portion of my disposition...
