Another photo of the Compact Rush plants growing in the smaller of the two moorland pools on Broadlee-bank Tor below Grindslow Knoll in Edale.

My first thought was a soil compactor because of the wheels at the ends and in the middle. But I don't know what those things are that are where the wheels should go on a compactor. Maybe for breaking up the soil? Oh well, I just thought it looked kind of cool.

For Macro Mondays - Hole

I was struggling to come up with a hole for this week, out of time, then this morning I had to burn a CD so decided to use that.

Happy Macro Monday!

End of the day, even construction equipment needs a rest.

Alviso, California.

We have a lot of earth works going on at our property, and I am finding so many fascinating elements to document. This is an attachment for the excavator and a big pile of clay material we’re holding onto so that we can hopefully have enough to line a small dam!!

Walking in The Old Town in Piran :)

Piran is a town in southwestern Slovenia on the Gulf of Piran on the Adriatic Sea. The town is known for its medieval architecture, with narrow streets and compact houses and it's one of Slovenia's major tourist attractions. Architecture of Piran resembles the Italian Venice, to which it belonged in the past, together with Istria. Most of the buildings, as well as the medieval walls separating the city from the rest of the mainland, also come from this period. In the middle of the town is the Tartini Square, with a monument in memory of Giuseppe Tartini. Nearby are located various important buildings, such as Tartini’s house, first mentioned in 1384 and one of the oldest in town, the Municipal Palace. The area of Piran has been inhabited since ancient times. The name of the town most probably originates from the Greek "pyros", meaning fire, due to ancient lighthouses which were supposed to be on the edge of the marina. From 1283 to 1797, the town became part of the Republic of Venice and then was annexed to the Austrian Empire. In 1954 The town was annexed to Yugoslavia.

Spacerujemy po wąskich zaułkach na starówce w Piranie :)

Piran – miasto w Słowenii, siedziba gminy Piran, położone na skalistym cyplu, jest jednym z najatrakcyjniejszych turystycznie miejsc nad słoweńskim Adriatykiem, słynnym ze ze średniowiecznej architektury z wąskimi uliczkami i zwartą zabudową. Swą architekturą o przypomina włoską Wenecję, do której wraz z Istrią należało w przeszłości. Z tego okresu pochodzi też większość zabudowy, a także średniowieczne mury, oddzielające miasto od reszty lądu. Reprezentacyjny plac Tartiniego powstał pod koniec XIX wieku, po zasypaniu wewnętrznego basenu portowego (1894). Mieści się przy nim ratusz i budynek sądu oraz zachowana z obwarowań brama św. Jerzego. Obszar Piranu był zasiedlony od czasów antycznych, a nazwa miasta wywodzi się od greckiego "pyrá", oznaczającego ognisko, ponieważ na krańcu półwyspu zapalano ogień jako punkt orientacyjny dla statków płynących do portu Koper. W 1283 wraz z wybrzeżem Istrii Piran przeszedł pod władzę Republiki Weneckiej, zaś po upadku potęgi Wenecji (1797) Piran przeszedł pod panowanie Habsburgów, zaś w 1954r. znalazł się w granicach Jugosławii.

Amazing how the big the wings of the brown Pelican can fold down into a very compact flying torpedo. The brown pelican can dive head first into water to catch a meal. And seagulls often try to steal their catch out. I hope to catch the seagull getting away with the theft on camera soon.

Your interaction on my art is appreciated and does not go unnoticed

There was heaps out last night.

I seen a Tawny Frogmouth on the ground which seemed strange but it was ok ended up flying away.

What is different about this image is it was not made with the 90mm pro lens but instead the 60mm and also not the Godox V1 but with a compact little flash with around half the output Godox V350. I still used a full sized CJ Diffuser.

I like the weight reduction the 60mm and V350 brings to the table and with the mount I can have a larger light source.

This Diffuser configuration is aimed at people wanting to keep weight down with no compromise on the size of light source (Which I feel some overlook)

Charge time I ended setting to 0.2 , whilst 0.1 or even 0 with IS disabled is doable I could clearly see a very slight exposure change in the evf when testing with those settings so I decided not to push the capacitor or possibly cook my flash and be happy with a 0.2 charge setting.

My settings for this shot

Have a nice day

A not very nice day outside so indoor jobs mixed with just a touch of playing with cameras.

Taken during my afternoon promenade using my good old compact. Shot in raw and processed in LR.

There have been quite a few new benches installed at the John F Kennedy arboretum, all this same design; really dark stained wood & just about long enough for 2 people to sit side by side. Perhaps they will be solo benches in the event of another covid type social distancing event? Who knows what the thinking was behind making them so compact & bijou.

Anyway, the colourful forsythia bushes & variety of distant trees caught my eye, so I took a quick iPhone shot HTmT!

Photo 31/100 : My 100x photos this year will all feature benches or chairs. Catching up with uploading my 100x as I was (am) way behind. I promise to intersperse some non-bench photos too.

Uses ultra-compressed fluid good for roughly 60 seconds of expulsion per canister.

There is no plan. The struggle for space is just the same as on a forest floor. New, bolder high-rise supplants older creations.
