Removal is reverse of installation (Instructions never go this way, but I neglected to take photos of the removal of the parts)

Grease the bottom bracket shell. I went ahead and smeared grease all over the inside for rust prevention should I ever get a little moisture in there. Greasing the cup/bearing/retainer assembly will make it slipperier than deer guts on a door knob and make installation more difficult.

One of the final generations of very high quality bottom brackets made for square tapered cranks. This was one which fitted entirely within a BB shell of a frame... and, unlike Shimano or Campagnolo - which each had flanged cups on the drive side, it could be shifted slightly to right or left to fine tune the chain line.

Macro Monday - theme: DIY

 

I made brackets like these for each of my flash units. When a flash is on an umbrella adapter with an umbrella, with this bracket it's flat and very close to the stem of the umbrella, aimed along the center axis (instead of 5"-8" offset in typical position on an umbrella adapter). Also, the weight of the flash unit counter-balances the umbrella better.

Ankarana National Reserve, near Antsiranana, northern Madagascar ... near Lac Vert.

 

Ankarana Special Reserve is a protected area in northern Madagascar created in 1956. It is a small, partially vegetated plateau composed of 150-million-year-old middle Jurassic limestone. With an average annual rainfall of about 2,000 millimetres (79 in), the underlying rocks have been eroded to produce caves and feed subterranean rivers - a karst topography. The rugged relief and the dense vegetation have helped protect the region from human intrusion and exploitation.

 

Tsingy is the Malagasy name for the country's dramatic limestone karst rock formations, appearing like a forest of often razor-sharp shards. Limestone itself is a sedimentary rock, formed at the bottom of the sea both by evaporation and deposition of the calcium carbonate remains of billions of sea creatures, whose shells and bones in death fell to the ocean floor. Over millions of years, layers built upon layers, until seismic activity eventually thrust the limestone above sea level.

 

What began as limestone plateaus eroded dramatically over time, weathered from above and below by fresh water acidified by airborne carbon dioxide dissolved within it.

 

Tsingy is a Malagasy word meaning 'where one cannot walk barefoot'. This description is both apt and very important for ecosystems which have developed in these rock forms. Pockets of forest provide important habitat for wildlife and plants, which through the defence of sharp rock edges, are spared being plundered by bushmeat hunters, farmers and grazing zebu cattle.

My attempt at a DIY macro flash bracket.

 

Purpose: get my Speedlite in a position where it can put light on a subject very close to the end of my lens.

 

Cost:

 

Aluminum bar = ~ $5

Foam padding = ~ $0.10

Electrical tape = basically free... lets call it a penny.

 

Total = ~$5.11

 

Just waiting on the off-camera flash cord I bought on eBay, then time to try it out!

Fomitopsis betulina (previously Piptoporus betulinus), commonly known as the birch bracket or razor strop, is a common bracket fungus. As the name suggests, it grows almost exclusively on birch trees. The brackets burst out from the bark of the tree, and these fruit bodies can last for more than a year.

 

Fomitopsis betulina has been widely used in traditional medicines. Agaric acid found in the fruit body of the fungus, is poisonous to the parasitic whipworm Trichuris trichiura. The fungus was carried by "Ötzi the Iceman", the 5,300 year old mummy found in Tyrol, with speculation that the fungus may have been used as a laxative to expel whipworm.

Ischnoderma resinosum. Not 100% sure of ID. Don't think I've seen one like this before, though I've been giving brackets a wide berth as they can be quite tricky to ID. Probably on beech
