I had a specific hope from this sunrise shoot of the Buttercross in Brigg, North Lincolnshire, and that was to capture the sun rising at the end of the street on the left (Wrawby Street). But unfortunately there was an annoying slither of cloud on the horizon and by the time it cleared, the sun had moved too far to the right. Maybe I’ll be luckier another time.
Shot as a 5 shot panorama (each bracketed) with my Tilt Shift, and stitched in Lightroom. The highlights on the front of the building are due to spotlights above the upper windows.
The Buttercross, historically was the Brigg Town Hall, but is now used as a tourist information centre and as an events venue.

On the way to Lynmouth I stopped off at Porlock Weir to take a few shots of the harbour and boats. It was quite cloudy which does force you to be more creative in your shots as a nice sunny day photo can usually cover up a lazy composition well I think so anyway!

Following comments by Daniel Myers and James Burns and a specific question by Sccart, I managed to find on the Ephrata website an explanation of these strange buildings : they form a stage, build in 1970, and facing an amphitheater (that I had not photographed and then forgotten about, that was some 3 year ago...). It was first used for outdoor drama, and now for special programs.
That said, they are thin, but of normal height.
The ghostly webs covering specific trees in Orwell Country Park alerted me to the presence of these Small Ermine Moth caterpillars!
The webs hide hundreds and sometimes tens of thousands of caterpillars of the Small Ermine moths. In the UK there are eight species of Small Ermine Moths, but only the Orchard Ermine (Yponomeuta padella), Spindle Ermine (Y. cagnagella) and Bird-cherry Ermine (Y. evonymella) tend to produce such extensive webbing, the former mainly on blackthorn and hawthorn, the others on spindle and bird-cherry respectively.
The Bird-cherry Ermine tends to have a more northern distribution compared to the other two and occasionally whole trees can be covered by their webs, the leaves stripped bare giving the tree an eerie appearance. Sometimes these webs are so extensive that they can cover nearby objects such as benches, bicycles and gravestones.
Yesterday a wild daffodil, today a wild orchid for letter O! Ophrys tenthredinifera is the sawfly orchid, named after the insect it resembles. Like many wild orchids, it's reproduction strategy relies on mimicking the female of a specific species of insect (in appearance, touch and released pheromones) to attract males that will pollinate it while trying to copulate with it. I'm always amazed at the things nature comes up with.

The grounds of Rundāle Palace amount to 85 hectares including the French Baroque Garden which covers 10 hectares. Based on a layout by Francesco Rastrelli from 1735/1736, the garden was created by Christopher and Michael Weyland between 1736 and 1740. The garden borders a former hunting park to the south, whereas the area on the north side is used for agriculture.
The renovation began in 1972 when the Rundāle Palace Museum was established. At that time, the Baroque garden was overgrown, the carved trees had grown tall and thin, and there was a school sports ground instead of the parterre. The renovation was implemented in several stages and with substantial support by volunteers: trimming of overgrown trees, restoration of paths, replanting of trees and bushes, restoration of bosquets surrounded by hedges, installation of arbour passages or pergolas, reconstruction of ornamental parterres, pools and fountains, restoration of the Gardener’s House. Rastrelli’s design did not give a specific bosquet filling, but it shows pavilions that were never built. Therefore, samples of baroque gardens were considered in the creation of the bosquet fillings.
In 2004, the Green Theatre was opened. In 2005, the rose garden on both sides of the ornamental parterre was commenced. It contains 2,230 rose varieties, including 600 historical varieties. The restoration of fruit tree orchards commenced in 2018. Lists of plants used in the garden of Rundāle Palace and thematic exhibitions are shown in the Gardener’s House.
The Parish Church of Saint Thomas of Canterbury
The village of Digby sits on the B road between Lincoln & Sleaford, The parish church is located in the centre of the village and is dedicated to St Thomas of Canterbury.
It has Norman zigzag carving in the doorway, 13th century arcades and west tower, which is capped by a 15th century crocketed spire.
Close to the village is RAF Digby which opened in 1918 and is still an active militay base, it is also home to the Sector Operations Room Museum which was opened in 1997 and is usually open to the general public at specific times during the year.
The village was also served by it's own railway station on the Lincoln to Peterborough line, the station opened on 1st August 1882, the same day as the railway line. The station closed to passenger on 11th September 1961, however the line is still in use.
This olive-sided flycatcher proved more interested in perching at this specific location than with the dude in the camo-looking tent. I don't normally go to the trouble of lugging a hide around, but this guy seemed worth it.
No. Definitely not. The gallic wasp with her specific long legs hanging around during flight.
Looks a little bit oversized with the artifical clouds. Without the ivy in the image one might think of the end of the human world. Canons 300L Non-IS in combination with 3 Kenko Extenders on the Sony A7R with Metabones V isn't a perfect choice to track an half inch sized Insect during a flight. This was the best catch I could do.
D'abord, le design extérieur : entre le fer à repasser futuriste finition carbone et la Renault Zoé revue sauce Star Wars, elle ne plaira certainement pas à tout le monde. Ne nous arrêtons pas à l'apparence, il faut voir ce qu'elle compte proposer à ses futurs acquéreurs.
Consciente qu'elle devait répondre à des besoins spécifiques, Alef Aeronautics, depuis sa création en 2015, s'est concentrée sur trois points : que son véhicule puisse se conduire comme une voiture classique, qu'elle puisse décoller verticalement et que son prix demeure relativement accessible (nous reviendrons ensuite sur le mot « relativement »).
La Model A présente une autonomie de conduite de 322 kilomètres environ et une autonomie de vol de 177 km, le tout sur batterie. Sur ce point-là, difficile de la comparer à la concurrence, au vu de sa double fonction vol et roulage.
Le prix relativement bas qui a été annoncé par l'entreprise est de 300 000 $, soit le prix cumulé d'un Cessna 172 d'occasion (petit avion monomoteur de tourisme) et d'une voiture de catégorie luxe/GT/sportive neuve. La Model A ne s'adresse clairement pas à tout le monde. Ce prix élevé n'a pas empêché plus de 440 réservations du modèle à partir d'octobre 2022.
Les tests du véhicule ont commencé depuis 2019 et sa mise en production devrait commencer en 2025. Mais l'entreprise ne va pas s'arrêter là et développera d'autres modèles. Une berline, la Model Z prévue pour 2035 avec un prix de départ à 35 000 $. Certainement dans l'espoir de massifier la production et de sortir un premier projet vraiment accessible au plus grand nombre et lucratif pour viabiliser l'entreprise.
Les voitures volantes, bientôt un élément courant dans nos paysages ?
Nous n'en sommes pas là !
Même si ce projet prouve que cela reste un marché de niche destiné aux riches propriétaires ou aux entreprises, il est en réalité impossible de prévoir à l'avance ce que peut nous réserver une équipe de passionnés.
L'histoire de la tech est remplie d'exemple qui confirme d'ailleurs cette théorie.🤔
____________________________________PdF___________
First, the exterior design: between the futuristic carbon-finish iron and the Renault Zoé review with Star Wars sauce, it certainly won't appeal to everyone. Let's not stop at the appearance, we have to see what it intends to offer its future buyers.
Aware that it had to meet specific needs, Alef Aeronautics, since its creation in 2015, has focused on three points: that its vehicle can drive like a classic car, that it can take off vertically and that its price remains relatively accessible (we'll come back to the word "relatively" later).
The Model A has a driving range of approximately 322 kilometers and a flying range of 177 km, all on battery power. On this point, it is difficult to compare it to the competition, given its dual function of flight and taxiing.
The relatively low price that was advertised by the company is $300,000, which is the combined price of a used Cessna 172 (small single-engine passenger aircraft) and a new luxury/GT/sport class car . The Model A is clearly not for everyone. This high price did not prevent more than 440 reservations of the model from October 2022.
Tests of the vehicle have started since 2019 and its production should start in 2025. But the company is not going to stop there and will develop other models. A sedan, the Model Z scheduled for 2035 with a starting price of $35,000. Certainly in the hope of massiveizing production and releasing a first project that is truly accessible to as many people as possible and lucrative to make the company viable.
Flying cars, soon a common element in our landscapes?
We are not there !
Even if this project proves that it remains a niche market aimed at wealthy owners or companies, it is actually impossible to predict in advance what a team of enthusiasts may have in store for us.
The history of tech is full of examples that confirm this theory.🤔
This is Yellow card. Also called a stop action Card. We use this in various Industries. This Specific one is from my Ship office. If I think that any one is doing any Unsafe practice, I can just show him and he has to stop whatever he is doing. And no question to be asked. This card is issued to everyone and any one can show this to anyone. The sad part is – I can only show this to my colleagues. HMM !!
After seeing Simon's utak's YouTube video about the Petri 50mm f/1.8, I decided to cycle it back into the vintage glass this morning. The specific lens is the Pentri C.C 50mm f/1.8 and I'm shooting it on a helicoid adapter here. This lens has a busy quality that is somehow pleasant, and I chose it here to complement the grass and buttercup stems.
Cause it's a Gerber daisy.
Thanks to the nice Russian florist that gave me a bunch of flowers to shoot for free!
I just edited the last 3 shots of this series that were caught with very late warm sunlight and merged a panorama with them. View is a bit more concentrated to the mountains of Estergebirge and Wetterstein but still some part of Murnauer Moos can be seen at the foreground as we have a ratio of 3:1 for this panorama – just like the classical 6x17 film format.
I called it »Last sunlight at Werdenfelser Land« - this is more specific than the bavarian alps. The region has got its name by the old castle of Werdenfels and these mountains can be seen as the heart of it or at least as very typical for that bavarian region.
Speculating on the Blue
Flaka Haliti
2015
Sand, Metal, Light
56th Venice Biennale, Kosovo Pavilion
«Speculating on the Blue is a site specific installation conceived by Flaka Haliti for the Kosovo Pavilion at the Biennale Arte. With this work she addresses the topos of borders that are not only part of her personal history but also our everyday global reality. The artist specifically examines the features of the borderland, often deserted and seemingly decaying within a short period of time. Barriers are manmade manifestations of political decisions made about territories, which are often drawn with little regard for natural and ethnical boundaries. Haliti aims at de-militarizing and de-familiarizing the aesthetic regime that is embodied by physical borders through the creation of a counter image. In doing so she transforms the former into a sign of optimism. Her approach is one of recontextualizing global politics through disconnection from its regime of appearance. The metaphor of the horizon, simultaneously emblem of possibility and enigma of our limitations is woven into the fabric of our past and present.
By drawing on the universal meaning of this metaphor, the artist removes the image economy of the horizon from any specific spatial-temporal context and speculates on its validity as an eternal truth.»
On the first full day of my Autumn In The Alps trip I had a tough decision to make. Do I sit around my hotel in Munich and hope that British Airways calls me with news of my missing bag...or do I head out with the clothes on my back and live like a hobo for the next 8 days? After spending 20 minutes getting nowhere with the nice young lady from India, my decision was clear. In spite of British Airways' best attempts to derail my trip (bumping me to a later flight, losing my bag and then refusing to give me any information for four days) I ignored the fact that I had no luggage and was now missing the big tripod, and headed to the Dolomites with nothing but my camera gear and the back up Benro that I had brought for just such an occasion.
By late afternoon, I was pulling into the Val di Funes and setting off for St John's Chapel. The few hours that I spent in this valley will stay with me for the rest of my life. After shooting around St John's, I headed up the steep hillside behind me and found another 20 or so photographers setting up for the sunset. Not wanting to be part of the pack, I headed further up the hill, and then just sat....and soaked it all in. The clinking of the cow bells. The church bells ringing out over the valley for Sunday evening mass. I dodged a couple of tractors driven by stern looking weather beaten farmers who seemed to roll their eyes at the small army of photographers. I couldn't help but wonder....do you ever get used to it? No matter how hard my day was as a farmer....to look up and see that view...in all directions....would you ever want to leave?
I certainly didn't, but it was a long drive to Slovenia and it was already getting dark. Reluctantly, I packed up and headed back down the mountain.

Thought I'd try to capture some spring colors. Mostly about the color pallet and not a specific subject. Would this be better with a larger depth of field?

In the UK, woodland robins are not likely to migrate in the summer like some other bird species. They are often found in woodlands and other areas, and their presence is generally consistent throughout the year, though they might be more visible during specific times, such as the spring breeding season

Malayan tiger, from a specific population of the Panthera tigris tigris subspecies, that is native to Peninsular Malaysia. Classified as critically endangered on the IUCN Red List since 2015.
Scientific name: Nephila pilipes
Diet: Nephila spp. prey upon only a few species. Nephila spp. will remove some specific insects from their webs. They avoid vespid wasps, alate ants, and other insects that secrete distasteful compounds.
The fledged young barnswallows are quite capable of flying and fend for them selfs but still like to get that extra mouth-stuffer.

Excerpt from Wikipedia:
The Rockwood Conservation Area has a rich and unique geological aspect. A few specific features that are a part of the environment at the Rockwood conservation area include glacier bluffs, potholes, caves and some of the oldest dated trees in Ontario.
The cave system includes a series of 12 caves, which is one of the most extensive networks in Ontario. Within the caves is a prominent feature called flowstone, which over many years is created by flowing water that deposits a type of calcium carbonate called calcite.
Another feature at Rockwood are the potholes. Within the conservation area, there is over 200 potholes that all vary in measurements. These potholes are also known as giant's kettles, which are large cavities that have been drilled by flowing water carrying stones and gravel.
As well, glacial bluffs are seen at Rockwood. These have been formed over thousands of years after the earth’s most recent ice age ended. They can be relatively small and get as large as 30 meters deep and 200 meters wide.
I started out with a specific outcome with this but my mind and heart were else where at the time. This image really reflects what was going on at the time for me. Everything a blur
My thanks to all of you who stop, look and comment. I will be sure to check out your photostream.

There is that specific times of the year when I think you have elements and touches of all seasons in the landscapes. The greys of winter, the greens of summer, the reds of autumns and the yellows of spring! I do love nature
This image was was captured in the corner of a wild desolate field near the forest with some rocks and stones left to decay.
Apart from specific calls to advertise, and specific things of interest i am on permanent hiatus from Second Life blogging, Second Life in general. 2020 wasn't very kind, and the culture of SL is LITERALLY just becoming even more toxic as the days go by. In order to save myself the hassle i'm just cutting ties and walking off.
Early morning visit here for a specific sunrise composition i have had in mind for some time.
To my annoyance,my position to complete this composition had the footpath shut of which would have been at 90 Deg to the right of this one.
Also the tide was a lot lower than i hoped so rather than a wasted journey,i decide to do a few from here.
If you enlarge,you can see the Hayling Island to Eastney Ferry Terminal in the background.
To be more specific, one of the pressed flower note cards our mother used to make. She was a very creative, talented, gifted person, and one of the many things she would make were these note cards made with pressed flowers from her own garden.
She had a patch of Queen Anne's Lace growing in the backyard for this purpose. I still have a small assortment of her cards left, and this one with the Queen Annes' Lace flower is my favorite.

It was quite a difficult place to get in, unless you plan way ahead of coming and obtain the necessary tickets, otherwise, good luck. Even with ticket, with some specific reserved time, it was confusing where to go and what to do since once you get to the ticket office, you'd need to exchange your online tickets with the real tickets and there were lines of people lining up and which lines are which...(a long walk uphill to the ticket office where you'd get in). If you missed you reserved time, then you'd not be able to see some of the main places inside. All in all, quite a hassle, but I think if you go to Granada, then I believe that you'd want to visit this place.

From Wikipedia:
The Alhambra (/ælˈhæmbrə/; Spanish: [aˈlambɾa]; Arabic: الْحَمْرَاء [ʔælħæmˈɾˠɑːʔ], Al-Ḥamrā, lit. "The Red One"),[Note 1][Note 2] the complete Arabic form of which was Qalat Al-Hamra,[Note 3] is a palace and fortress complex located in Granada, Andalusia, Spain. It was originally constructed as a small fortress in AD 889 on the remains of Roman fortifications, and then largely ignored until its ruins were renovated and rebuilt in the mid-13th century by the Moorish emir Mohammed ben Al-Ahmar of the Emirate of Granada, who built its current palace and walls. It was converted into a royal palace in 1333 by Yusuf I, Sultan of Granada.[1] After the conclusion of the Christian Reconquista in 1492, the site became the Royal Court of Ferdinand and Isabella (where Christopher Columbus received royal endorsement for his expedition), and the palaces were partially altered to Renaissance tastes. In 1526 Charles I & V commissioned a new Renaissance palace better befitting the Holy Roman Emperor in the revolutionary Mannerist style influenced by Humanist philosophy in direct juxtaposition with the Nasrid Andalusian architecture, but which was ultimately never completed due to Morisco rebellions in Granada.

Taken with my "cheap" Nikon 24-85mm...
In the ten years I lived in Alaska I only tried this specific angle once, and I'm not sure why I didn't try again. I suppose it was because it took a bit of a walk to get to this spot, but I'm glad I have a few to show for it. I did do sort of a reprisal in 2014 but from far higher up the bluff overlooking the river.
Here is the southbound weekly Winter Aurora passenger train back when it was a diminutive consist of just a baggage car, a single coach, and a diner trailing an SD70MAC/GP40-2 combo. They are coming across the 800 foot long Knik River Bridge at MP 146.4. This bridge dates from 1937 and consists of nine orignal 80 ft. pony plate girder thru spans and one 100 ft. span that dates from a 2004 rebuilding. In that year the Alaska Railroad installed new concrete pilings and caps and shifted the old 80 foot spans over and installed a broad new 100 ft span, which is the one closest in this image and featuring a large yellow ARR logo.
The Knik River is 25 miles long flowing down from its start at the foot of Knik Glacier which is one of the largest ice fields in South Central Alaska flowing down off th Chugach Range. The river here forms the boundary between the Matanuska-Susitna Borough af the Municipality of Anchorage which the train is entering, despite being 30 miles away from downtown still!
In the distance 20 miles away almost due north sparkling in the afternoon spring light are the 6000 ft peaks of the Talkeetna Mountains surrounding Hatcher Pass.

I spent some time scanning some of my father's old slides. Most are from the mid seventies, however I can't provide the specific dates. As I remember it from trips with my dad, a colorful and busy East Deerfield yard is bustling with action, including a pair of B&M geeps and Alco S4 1268 getting ready to make it's next move. Fred McGinnis, March 1977.
This specific jawa is an intelligent one. He has stolen the landspeeder from the Mos Eisley, there it was, waiting to be taken. And now it takes him to a places he no see before. Here is a moment, when he is watching the horizon and making the final decision of going any further of the Lars moisture farm, aka Lars homestead.
Did you know The Great Chott salt flat is so close to this place?
One more for "the moisture farm series" I did earlier this year. I was about to bury this under the sand, but then realized that it could be a nice little addition to the series, as I’ve did spent a lot of time on setting-up the scene, photography and cleaning the mess it created during the process. I was about to do a full color version, but this precise monochrome started to impress me a just bit more. Maybe I’ll just do the color version later (or not). Happy holidays!
Angle of Repose. © Copyright 2022 G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
Sand dune patterns, Death Valley National Park.
This “intimate landscape” is a sand dune vignette made in a specific place but which could be found almost anywhere. A close look may reveal some details that desert and sand aficionados may find interesting. The large patterns are typically found on one side of dunes where sand blown over the top of the dune collects below. The smaller “ripples” are a common feature of dunes, too, and these are completely undisturbed since the dunes are somewhat remote. Looking even closer may reveal some tinier patterns and tracks across the face of the sand.
The term “angle of repose” refers to the steepest angle at which a material, such as this sand, might collect without falling. It is also the title of a wonderful Wallace Stegner novel, and that is where I first encountered the term. Fans of the history of the American West, especially the part that came after initial explorations, and especially those who have roots in the west may enjoy the novel as much as I did, with its connections to places and types of people that I know from my own experience.
