Avebury is one of Britain's most important prehistoric sites, renowned for the standing stones that punctuate the village and represent the remains of one of the largest Neolithic stone circles ever constructed.
The present village of Avebury was built partially within the old stone circle, which is itself surrounded by earthworks forming a vast circular ditch, a massive undertaking. Almost half the stones of the outer circle remain in some form, mostly on the western side closer to the heart of the village. The huge roughly hewn monoliths are impressive, not least for the effort that must have been required to transport them and erect them here in a standing position.
South of the main circle and village is the Avenue which extends outwards for some distance towards West Kennett. The Avenue is lined on both sides by more standing stones, many of which are missing and generally smaller than those in the circle, but it still makes for a dramatic approach to the site.
My first encounter with Avebury was through a spooky television series in the 1970s called 'Children of the Stones' which was filmed on location here. The memory of the eerie atmosphere of the mysterious stones had stayed with me ever since.

Picture taken in Wollaton Park during the Autumn 2011.
Wollaton Park is a 500 acre historic deer park situated three miles west of Nottingham's city centre. At the heart of the park, standing on a natural hill, is Wollaton Hall. The Hall is a spectacular Elizabethan mansion designed by Robert Smythson and built by Sir Francis Willoughby between 1580 and 1588. Close to the Hall are the Formal Gardens. Within these is The Camellia House the oldest cast iron glasshouse in Europe. In the Park herds of Red and Fallow Deer roam.

Very old bracket fungus on a very old tree, in the woods at Sheringham, North Norfolk. Dairy Milk Chocolate?
The brackets were painted several times. One will be set aside to use in the display. The other 19 will be restored and placed back on the building.
One of many machine mounts on the wash floor of the old Centennial Mill. The mill processed copper-bearing rock from the Centennial Mine by a series of mechanical processes: stamps, vibrating tables, rotating wash boards, and so on. Today, only the overgrown cement floor is left.

The Impact umbrella bracket (and the other copies) has a fatal flaw in it's design-- their tightening nob is in line with the tilt head, and the nob is is taller than the top of the bracket, so that mounting anything bigger than the the diameter of the bracket will have the same problem, it can not be tight down. Instead of modify it, I replace it with the Manfretto metal one.
Cool thing about the Manfretto bracket is that it's male stud has a hole in it, and the top tightening handle bar can be used to mount the stud into places very securely. But there's a problem with the placement of that stud hole. Looking through the handle bar hole, I can see half the stud hole showing, making me think twice before cranking the handle bar really tight.
To solve the problem, I made a new mounting stud myself. Using a 1/4 steel pipe, I drill a hole at a lower position, and tap and install a 3/8 stud on top.

This was the last of the original street lighting fixtures to be found in the Leicestershire village of Ashby Magna. The others have either been butchered to have new lanterns fitted to them, or have been taken down and replaced. This fitting was on a telegraph pole close to the village centre, until it failed about 12-months ago. The unit was replaced with a modern affair, but the Parish Clerk had the good sense to put the redundant fitting to one side for safe keeping. I have since acquired the bracket and lantern with the intention to renovate it.
The assembly is seen in its acquired condition, mocked up to give an idea of how it would have looked in service. However, since this picture was taken, it has been stripped down ready for shot blasting and the spiders inside have had to find a new home.
Bolts on to the two 1"BSF chassis attached towing brackets to give one central tow point and to spread any stresses. The bolts are long and have spacer collars which I have put under the bolt heads as i didn't need it further away from the panels as I had already put extensions in each of the towing brackets.

This picture shows the new antenna bracket with the mast inserted, along with my BAL leveler strapped to the backside of my spare tire, and my blue tanks strapped to my battery box. I'm trying to take the advice of keeping the outside stuff outside as much as possible.
Towing bracket "removed" from Stewarts ERF - It was the incorrect bracket, and "held on" with inadequate and incorrect bolts - note 3 of the 6 have bent following a short "straight Bar" journey.

A common kind of fungus, Turkey Tail I think, found in ancient woodland, in this case, Hillhouse Wood, Essex
Exposure bracketing is taking a series of varying exposures in order to ensure obtaining a correct exposure. The typical exposure bracketing method is to take one photo at the recommended metered exposure, a second photo of the same subject at a higher exposure, and a third photo of the same subject at a lower exposure.
The famous photographer and editor of Life magazine, Margaret Bourke-White, bracketed by setting her shutter speed to 1/100th of a second and making an exposure at each full stop from f/4 to f/22. (Note: based on the equipment she was using at the time, her actual exposures were from f/4.5 to f/22).
When shooting color negatives and/or B&W negative film, my bracketing personal preferences are:
Metered exposure, 2 stops over, and 2 stops under
or
Metered exposure, 2 stops over, and 1 stop under
When shooting color transparency (slide) film, my bracketing personal preferences are:
Metered exposure, 1 stop over, and 1 stop under
or
Metered exposure, ½ stop over, and ½ stop under
or
Metered exposure and one stop over
(I eliminated the one-stop under because I rarely used it).
The minimum bracketing features I expect from my digital cameras are the same as what I can do with my film cameras. However, since digital cameras easily use ISO to alter exposure, I expect much more from my digital cameras.
In addition to the beauty of mushrooms, fungi provide a critical part of nature's continuous rebirth: fungi recycle dead organic matter into useful nutrients. Sometimes the fungus doesn't wait for the biomatter to die, in which case the fungus is called a parasite. Many plants, however, are dependent on the help of a fungus to get their own nutrients, living in a symbiotic relationship called a mycorrhizal association.
Bracket fungi include the tough, woody, shelf-like growths on the trunks of dead trees. Some species are serious parasites of living trees. The upper side often shows concentric striations that represent successive years of growth. Ages of 50-70 years have been recorded for some species. The lower surface is composed of numerous minute pores through which astronomical numbers of spores are released.

As I walked past Waterstone's on Stephenson Street I got a few close up shots.
Waterstone's on Stephenson Street - formerly a Midland Bank.
It was built in 1868 - 69 and was originally the head offices of the Midland Bank.
It was designed in the classical style by Edward Holmes and an extension was added in 1875. It is a Grade II listed building.
1867-9, by Edward Holmes; extended towards Stephenson Place and Stephenson Street 1875. Stone. Two storeys; 3 bays. Ground floor with banded rustication, a central arched entrance within a porch with coupled granite Ionic column to the entablature which carries a balcony and 2 arched windows. First floor with coupled giant Corinthian order and with 3 window in frames with pilasters and entablature. Entablature with dentilled and bracketted cornice. Balustraded parapet. Excellent detailing throughout. Long return on Stephenson Place in a similar style, but the first floor order is not coupled. Good iron railings. Inside, a banking hall of 3 x 7 arched bays separated by giant composite Corinthianesque pilasters supporting a heavily coffered roof with central coved glazed part.
Midland Bank - Waterstone's - Heritage Gateway
It used to be the Midland Bank International Division.
This maybe removed if the Midland Metro goes around Stephenson Street (for pedestrian access).
Beyond is the Burlington Hotel (ex Midland Hotel).
Doors on Waterstone's.
Went a bit of a fungus expedition near Pickering, came up with quite a collection. All on the Nikon D3 where the ISO versatility helps in the rather dark condityions and the trust5 manual 55mm f3.5 Ai Nikkor
fyi: even if we are ranked 16th (which is indeed rare), I would always put UNC as the champion. its in my dna. so really i am just crystal-ballin how they get there, and the carnage that surrounds them.
