CFE FWCH has entered IHB rails at Ivanhoe with CWR from Columbia City. The signal brackets in the background are some of the last of its kind in the entire region.

Phellinus igniarius

Church of St Stephen in the village of Aldwark, North Yorkshire.

 

The church is unusual for the area consisting of alternating courses of red brick in herringbone pattern and light-coloured cobbles with sandstone ashlar dressings and interior. Stone

Aldwark is a village and civil parish in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire, England. It is situated on the River Ouse about 14 miles from York.

Inverted bracket keeps on giving.

Fomitopsis betulina (previously Piptoporus betulinus), commonly known as the birch polypore, birch bracket, or razor strop, is a common bracket fungus and, as the name suggests, 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.

In its young stages, this wood fungus can have stunning colours.

As there was a decent weather forecast, I decided to take an early morning two hour drive to the Lake District. I spent a fruitless morning and early afternoon between Ashness Bridge and Derwent Water. I decided to call in at Blea Tarn on the way home to see if I could catch some last rays of sun on The Langdales.

This is a blend of nine images, using bracketing and focus stacking. Composition could be better, I should have got lower to reduce the gap between the foreground rocks and the background.

May I take this opportunity to wish all my Flickr friends a happy and healthy 2022 and of course some decent light!

I am a bit slow posting lately. I am exhausted from doing not much. I was told when I moved in that my unit was testing positive for a long time for Meth Amphetamine but was safe to live in now.

 

I recently found out that the unit I am in was a Meth Lab twice in a row. I did raise it with my housing person a while ago asking if they where being fully honest with me about things as my health has not been good. All I got back was silence. This coupled with many other things leaves me now trying to figure out how to get some samples tested at the property I am in and seeking legal advice.

  

I had a great time yesterday apart from the pain while out looking for subjects.

 

This Australian Native Bee was a lovely find. An amazing sight to see.

Have a nice day

  

In November 2006 the Lehigh Line was still single tracked between CP Bound Brook and CP Potter and four-axle power still ruled on NS 212 and 214. Here we see NS 212 motoring through Piscataway behind a trio of four axles...two B32-8s bracketing a GP60.

Thank you to everyone who views, faves or comments on my photos, it is always appreciated.

BNSF 6322 brings up the rear of the UCHELGS Herzog ballast train, as they dump ballast between French and Levy, NM. Bracketing the power are three former Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe semaphore signals at WSS Colmor. These blades may be from the early 20th century, but they faithfully continue to perform their duty protecting trains on the TWC portion of the Raton Subdivision.

Thank you to everyone who visits, faves, and comments.

(280/365) I'm fairly sure this is a Southern Bracket fungus "Ganoderma Australe". There were several growing in tiers on a mature Beech tree in the lane behind Kanturk Castle. The fruit body was about 7 inches across & the Ivy leaves are covered in a dusting of brown spores. For 115 pictures in 2015 #63 Fungi

It was a beautiful sight like nature's art growing in our old tree stump.

 

Bracket fungi cause decay and rot in the heartwood of trees and produce bracket-shaped fruiting bodies on the trunk or main branches. These fungi usually lead to the weakening and eventual breakage or fall of affected trees. Source: www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?PID=98

The Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, UK

 

Bracket fungi or polypores are a group of fungi that includes the tough, woody, shelf-like growths on the trunks of dead trees. Some species are parasites of living trees.

 

Over a 1000 types of polypore have been identified. They are much more diverse in old natural forests with abundant dead wood than in younger managed forests or plantations. Consequently, a number of species have declined drastically and are under threat of extinction due to logging and deforestation.

 

Polypores are used in traditional medicine, and they are actively studied for their medicinal value.

Looks as if it was made by 'Cadbury'.

might be a rare Ganoderma carnosum ( Dunkle Lackporling ) growing on Yew

 

I don`t find Bracket fungi easy to identify and this one is no different !

 

What was unusual here was the fact it grew on an old Yew tree (in a cemetery) and I this is the first fungus I`ve seen growing on yew. Dorset

 

Other possibilities could be Beeswax Bracket / Ganoderma pfeifferi ( Kupferroter Lackporling ) ? Or Lacquered Bracket /

Ganoderma lucidum ( Glänzender Lackporling ) ? Or Red-belted Bracket / Fomitopsis pinicola ( Rotrandige Baumschwamm ) ?

On a dead tree stump at the edge of the forest two small intriguingly coloured and textured brackets - which I am unable to identify more accurately.

Trametes versicolor – also known as Coriolus versicolor and Polyporus versicolor – is a common polypore mushroom found throughout the world. Meaning 'of several colours', versicolor reliably describes this fungus that displays different colors. For example, because its shape and multiple colors are similar to those of a wild turkey, T. versicolor is commonly called turkey tail.

IHB GP38-2 5629 leads IHB 115 East at CP 100 in East Chicago, IN.

The fine bracket semaphore signals for Castleford West Junction on the Normanton line, pictured in October 1994 two years before they were replaced by colour lights. Situated at the western end of Castleford station platforms, they both indicated the same routes, the one on the left, from the normal up direction and, the one on the right from the down platform used mainly to turn back terminating multiple units.

The Signal arms on each of the left-hand dolls were for the Cutsyke branch to Pontefract, whilst the arms on the right-hand dolls were for the main line to Wakefield or Leeds, each with the distant arms for Castleford Gates signalbox below them. The route behind me was a freight only line to Milford Sidings.
