These little water striders often end up being "lunch" for the larger water striders. This one is probably Trepobates subnitidus like this one on bugguide: bugguide.net/node/view/147181
This visit was a last minute decision on the way back from a trip further north. It's a stunning place. Exceedingly remote - to the point you wonder "is it *really* out here?!" - but definitely worth the visit. There are several arches (other than the one here in the byre, near the car park) and walking to them all is a fairly serious undertaking, but the nearest one is only a couple of miles away. There are 3 others I think, all on top of the surrounding hills. Part of the idea is that you can see the others from whichever one you're at.

In 2021 Keighley and District Local History Society acquired an extensive collection of photograph negatives taken by the Keighley News. Groups of negatives were held in small wallets with the date and basic labelling written on the wallet. This image is developed from one of those negatives. The image was processed on behalf of the History Society by Billy Stride in 2023.

This visit to Cairnhead's 'Striding Arches' was a last minute decision on the way back from a trip further north. It's a stunning place. Exceedingly remote but definitely worth the visit. There are several arches (other than the one in the byre) and walking to them all is a fairly serious undertaking, but the nearest one is only a couple of miles. They're all on hilltops; part of the idea being that you can see the others from whichever one you're at.

Babylon, ca. 604-562 B.C. In molded and glazed brick, this colorful striding lion, its mouth opened in a threatening roar, once decorated a side of the "Processional Way" in ancient Babylon. The Processional Way led out of the city through a massive gate named for the Mesopotamian goddess of love and war, Ishtar, whose symbol was the lion. Each year, during the celebration of the great New Year Festival, the images of the city's gods were carried along the Processional Way, past some 129 lions such as this one, and out through the Ishtar Gate to a special festival house north of the city.

Surreal image of a stilt-walker at the All Souls Procession stage area of the Grand Finale. This man is walking behind the stages to get to the place he will later come out to perform with the others in a graceful choreographed dance, as seen in the previous two photos on my stream.
Thankfully some of my friends got much better images of these wonderful and alien creatures of the night. This is an arty shot but still interested me. I continue to work on the 400 or so images that I got over the weekend in Tucson.
