of St. Peters Harbour Lighthouse on the northern side of Prince Edwards Island, Canada was originally built in the late 1800s in one of PEI's original French settlements. The lighthouse was decommissioned in 2008. The lighthouse now looks in danger of washing away to sea if some way to save it isn't found soon.

"The St. Peters Harbour Lighthouse is a simple but well executed example of a square, tapered, wooden tower, with a superimposed gallery. This 10.4 metre tower has an atypical hexagonal lantern."

De schorpioenvliegen (Mecoptera) vormen een orde gevleugelde insecten met volledige gedaanteverwisseling die gevormd wordt door de familie van schorpioenvliegen en verwanten. Ter voorkoming van verwarring met de familie wordt de orde ook wel eens aangeduid als schorpioenvliegachtigen.
Het doorslaggevende kenmerk voor deze orde is niet de schorpioenachtige, bolle 'stekel' op de staart van de mannelijke exemplaren, maar de prominente verlenging van de kop met aan het uiteinde de monddelen. In het Duits worden de Mecoptera daarom ook wel "Schnabelfliegen" genoemd wat in vertalingen wel eens voor verwarring zorgt met snavelvliegen (Rhagionidae), hetgeen echter geheel andere dieren zijn. De wetenschappelijke naam Mecoptera betekent letterlijk vertaald lange (meco) vleugels (ptera). In Europa komen ongeveer 30 soorten voor, waarvan circa 8 in de Benelux.
Mecoptera (from the Greek: meco- = "long", -ptera = "wings") are an order of insects with about 550 species in nine families worldwide. Mecoptera are sometimes called scorpionflies after their largest family, Panorpidae, in which the males have enlarged genitals that look similar to the stinger of a scorpion. The Bittacidae, or hangingflies, are a prominent family of elongate insects known for their elaborate mating rituals, in which females choose mates based on the quality of gift prey offered by various males.
While modern Mecoptera are overwhelmingly predators or consumers of dead organisms, early ones might have played an important role before the evolution of other insects in pollinating extinct gymnosperms

Just trying out a few things with macros both shooting and processing, from my backyard. I'm getting a 56mm lens later this week, which is sort of a specialty lens (Lensbaby) which I hope to experiment with a bit, including with macros. It's a totally manual lens, meaning there is no communication between the lens and camera (and it's lot cheaper too)! One of the macros I used on some of these images is a manual lens as well - the Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2X macro. It's pretty cool!

THE WAR ON WASTE...please People, help relieve landfill by using a reusable mug. Takeaway mugs are not recyclable because of the plastic lining so it all goes to landfill...millions of tonnes of it....this mug came from Officeworks...BPA free white plastic, has the green band so that you can hold it while hot. There are many more in various stores.
This mug is an 8oz size, not too big to carry with you in case you feel like a takeaway coffee...many bistros are happy to give a discount.
Excerpt from Wikipedia:
The Römer (German surname, "Roman") is a medieval building in the Altstadt of Frankfurt am Main, Germany, and one of the city's most important landmarks. The Römer is located opposite the Old St. Nicholas church and has been the city hall (Rathaus) of Frankfurt for over 600 years. The Römer merchant family sold it together with a second building, the Goldener Schwan (Golden Swan), to the city council on March 11, 1405 and it was converted for use as the city hall. The Haus Römer is actually the middle building of a set of three located in the Römerberg plaza.
The Römer is not a museum as it is occasionally used by the city for various purposes, for example as a Standesamt or civil registration office; the wedding rooms are located in the first and second floor of the Haus Löwenstein.
The former old town quarter between the Römer and St. Bartholomew's Cathedral has been redeveloped as the Dom-Römer Quarter until 2018, including several reconstructions of historical buildings that were destroyed during World War II.
The entire three-storey building complex occupies about 10,000 square metres and consists of nine houses, encircling six courtyards. The front, with today's main entrance, faces the Römerberg plaza. Other streets around the Römer are the Limpurgergasse to the south and the Buchgasse and the Berliner Straße to the north. The Braubachstraße divides the south and north wings.
The exterior features of the set of buildings reflect a wide breadth of Frankfurt and Germany's history, even though they were designed at the beginning of the 20th century. The famous three-peaked façade has medieval elements of design. The left-hand corner of the Alt-Limpurg displays the so-called Frankfurtia, the female embodiment of the city. In the middle, the Haus Römer shows the four kaisers of the Holy Roman Empire, two city coats of arms, a clock face, and a placard describing the most important facts about the building. The four kaisers are Frederick Barbarossa (the first king to be elected in Frankfurt), Louis the Bavarian (who gave convention rights to the city and allowed an expansion of the city), Charles IV (who made Frankfurt the location of the Kaiser selection vote), and Maximilian II (the first kaiser to be crowned in Frankfurt cathedral).
Like the neogothic façade, the balcony was added after the rebuilding in 1900, replacing a wooden roof. The balcony was and is used as a public stage for state visits and sporting events - for example, the soccer world champions in the Women's World Cup in 2003 and the runners up in the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
Another approach was chosen for the design of the fronts of the two north-east houses (the Wanebach and the Salzhaus). In contrast to the other houses in the complex, instead of reconstructing the old Wilhelminean front, the architects created a completely new design using a combination of medieval timber framing and modern styles. The mosaics in the timber frames feature the motif of a phoenix, a symbol for modern Frankfurt's new start after the war.

Various finds from throughout 2016 that I forgot to post. The pack-board is date 1945. There are 3 ww2 post cards and one ww1 postcard. The portrait is of a phillipines soldier. The bullet is civil war. One photo is ww2 the other in not sure.
Today I've been mostly listening to Bowie. And feeling surprisingly sad for the loss of the Starman. Meanwhile I also started photographing burnt matches on various backgrounds and they turned into these abstract lines. I think especially Bowie's farewell gift to us all, "Blackstar" album, influenced these a lot.
