CSX 500, the "Spirit of Grafton," leads empty grain train G403 north past the signals at the south end of Grand Blanc siding. The cloudy day provided the chance for a non-backlit shot of a train here.
Piptoporus betulinus. At Tunxis Community College in Farmington, CT. This is unusual because it was growing in the ground instead of on a birch tree, which is their normal roost. Maybe the mulch is made from birch.
I'm really enjoying these misty mornings that create a sort of Blair Witch feeling in the middle of the woods. woooooooo!!!
Seen on the Italian poplar pictured in the previous image. I haven't reached any conclusions about the identity of this one.

Example posted for Aaron Sneary, but anyone is free to rip this off. It's not mine originally; a guy at the local Lego store showed this to me a while back, and I wouldn't be surprised if someone else has used it before.
This is actually really effective, probably the tightest four-way SNOT technique I know of (other than the Travis Brick, of course). As you can see, the minimum span of the structure is 2 studs, 1 plate (12Lu, or exactly the height of two bricks) in each dimension.
The gap in the center is almost exactly the diameter of a standard rod, which is a good way to attach it to other structures. By "almost" I mean "not quite", but the discrepancy is so minor it's close to the tolerance in between bricks, and barely visible to the eye. Tight, though, as in PC-on-PC tight.

Identification required, it was about 12" long growing on a rotting branch in leaf litter under beech and sweet chestnut trees
At Hilton Gravel Pits NR, Derbyshire.
I'm thinking it's a Birch Polypore which found its way upside down.
Blushing Bracket / daedaleopsis confragosa. Cloud Wood, Leicestershire. 14/03/20.
‘MAKING THE LITTLE THINGS COUNT.’
With this sinister ‘big thing’, Covid-19, affecting our lives right now, it's never been a better time to start noticing some of the little natural wonders during permitted, restricted visits outdoors. Awesome finds, (as shown in the image), provide joyful little distractions that can uplift the spirit during this crisis.
I visited Cloud Wood, a magical place, before Government lockdown began. Apart from finding the Scarlet Elf Cups I’d hoped for, I came across a fallen branch with Blushing Bracket fungus growing from it. The fruiting bodies were beautifully aged with rich orange and red-brown tones on their textured surfaces. It was when I looked at their undersides that I made the awesome discovery of the pore structures. What incredible natural patterning, and just waiting to be found that day!
The predominantly 'closed slit' pores would have been creamy-white initially, yet if bruised would have turned a deep pink colour. This characteristic accounts for the common name, Blushing Bracket.
BEST VIEWED LARGE.

A bracket is an architectural element: a structural or decorative member. It can be made of wood, stone, plaster, metal, or other media. It projects from a wall, usually to carry weight and sometimes to "...strengthen an angle".

DIY Flash Bracket
Ever wish for more flash power or faster flash cycle times through your umbrella?
Don’t have $100 to spend on the Lastolite TriFlash adapter? Nothing wrong with Lastolite products. They are very well made, but a student or beginning photographer may not have the extra cash for it.
If you already have a couple of extra cold shoes in your collection, you can spend about $10 for a 6 inch mending plate and a couple of 14/-20 bolts, nuts, and washers and make your own.
Strobes info:
Two Einstein strobes with softboxes. One on either side of the camera angled to minimize reflections from the smooth shiny plastic parts.

Seen on a great walk in Fish Creek Provincial Park today. This park, completely surround by the City of Calgary, is still an oasis for local flora and fauna. Never a dull moment in the park!

Phylum: Basidiomycota
Class: Agaricomycetes
Order: Polyporales
Family: Polyporaceae
Genus: Polyporus
Scientific name: Pycnoporus coccineus
Common Name: Orange bracket
A brilliant orange red fungus which bleaches to a whitish colour as it ages. Found on rotting wood and on the bark of living trees. Height: 100 mm Width: 80 mm
The bracket stands guard at the former site of the East End of Brownstown siding, as the rising sun burns off the remaining fog on a nice October morning. These signals were part of the recent cutovers in November, ending the 87 years of APB operations on this stretch of the former B&O mainline. While the other signals were completely removed, the bracket here still stands without the signal it once displayed.
