My maple syrup production is almost over for this year and it has been one of the best I've ever had. From 9 taps in 5 trees I have harvested 51+ gallons (830 cups) of sap and produced 1.94 gallons of syrup. I was able to get the taps in to harvest the super sweet early sap which really helped in the sap to syrup ratio. Yes, I still have the spiles out but the sap run is very slow.
I probably will pull them late next week.
Another golden drip. I did this after people had asked about my water drip pictures. With a water drip, the timing is very hard because the water drips so fast. I set this up using a fluid that takes much longer to drip. This is golden syrup or treacle as we call it in the UK. I put some of it in a teaspoon and balanced it on the edge of a tin. Set up the camera and flash (lit from the side) and then tilted the spoon so it started to drip. I was able to take several shots while one drip was forming. You can also se refraction in the drip.
"The Syrup Tanks – dating back to the 1950s – are four of the fourteen large-scale tanks that were used to collect high volumes of liquid sweetener generated in sugar processing. These tanks were originally located on the south west corner of the Refinery building.
Domino Park is a 6-acre public park in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York City. It spans a quarter mile along the East River near the Williamsburg Bridge, at the site of the landmarked former Domino Sugar Refinery.
An elevated walkway extends much of the length of the park, resembling the interior of the old refinery. The crane tracks that were used in the original refinery now houses gardens with roughly a hundred different species of plants. All wooden structures and chairs in the park were built using reclaimed wood from the refinery."

The weather has been cooperating nicely for sugaring season this year. It looks like we’re going to get at least twice as much syrup as we did last year - hopefully 2 or 3 gallons.
One of the reasons we LOVE sugaring season is because it gives you a reason to get outside.
"Life's too short to even care at all oh oh
I am losing my mind, losing my mind, losing control
These fishes in the sea, they're staring at me, oh oh oh oh
A wet world aches for a beat of a drum
If I could find a way to see this straight I'd run away
To some fortune that I should have found by now
I am waiting for this cough syrup to come down, come down...
Young The Giant- "Cough Syrup"
This photo was taken near Tiverton, Ontario, while we were collecting sap for making maple syrup. March 2005.
Rose syrup made from rose petals. Used to make rose milk, ice-creams, and in sweet dishes and dessert in north Indian Muglai cuisine.

My friend Micheal came to stay with Stu and me a few years ago and he brought this huge pitcher of Vermont maple syrup for us. Needles to say we used it all, it was delicious.
Maybe I should have tried a little bit harder to blur the background a bit more, but hey!
There's always the G for Gaussian blur tool in Photoshop!!
I did not notice it at the time, but the reflection of the kitchen windows in the syrup looks just like a heart. It must be a sweet heart!!!! LOL.
Day 7 of a 26 day challenge to post something each day that begins with a different letter of the alphabet, from A through to Z (in order)
My friends Saint-Exupery (www.flickr.com/photos/38025693@N06/) and Cluster One (www.flickr.com/photos/21517311@N06) will endeavour to do the same. But our results should all be very different as they shall do it in Spanish and Italian respectively and I shall do it in English!
We are also joined by Sunrise-sunrise (www.flickr.com/photos/naita29/) who will do the same in French.
I am now joined by my friend Western Dreamer (www.flickr.com/photos/lawanda_wilson-candid_captures_phot...) who will also do it in English.
