The Carrara marble quarries have been exploited since more than 2000 years. Carrara marble, found in northern Tuscany, is very famous for the statuary quality and has been used by all the most famous sculpturers in the world such as Michelangelo, Donatello, Jacopo Della Quercia and Canova. The first notable point of extractive activity was in the roman period, during the imperial age the demand for Carrara marble rose since it became the most requested building stone for public buildings.
Since then Carrara, Tuscany was a synonymous of marble and its marble was requested worldwide for buildings, statues, objects, etc. Till now, about one million tons of precious Carrara marble are quarried each year.
The town of Carrara is not far from any of the marble quaries, and since its origin, the town has been linked with the process of quarrying and marble working: already since the Roman Age from the close harbour of Luni at the mouth of river Magra, marble has been exported all over the world. After the unification of Italy, two important events characterized the local history of Carrara and on of which was very important for marble - the construction of the Railway to carry the blocks of marble from the mountain to the plain.

A focus stacked photo of a Broad-palmed Frog (Litoria latopalmata). I like the effect of focus stacking, but my camera cannot do it with the flash turned on. Therefore, I am left to try on frogs I find in the day.

stack of books from the library that I have lined up to read in the coming weeks! Check out the blog for links to titles.
BNSF 3811, a ET44C4, leads a stack train through Oregon, IL on a Saturday morning. This is only one of many stacks to pass through Oregon on the BNSF Aurora Sub each day.
This water was ice cold but I got so into what I was doing that I was calf deep in it for well over an hour.
sorry
i made lots
i got up at 5.30am whilst on holiday one day to go to the cove and stack. The peace and tranquility was immense.
i built a set of 18 stacks in perfect alignment across the cove. unfortunately 18 sacks in a single line don't photograph well. they looked bloody brilliant though. as you walked in and out of the alignment you either saw one or a mass of stacks.
inspired by the master bebalance www.flickr.com/photos/rocker/sets/72157602341391436/ i tried counterbalancing stones. it made for more delicately balanced stacks.
i am going to upload the rest of the photos later. there are far too many but feel i have to put them all up.
