The recent wildfires in northern Portugal got relatively little coverage in the UK but were a tragedy for the country, not least because lives were lost.

 

While Porto was not in imminent danger, the drifting smoke from fires several miles away to the east did make for an uncomfortable experience where you could literally taste the burning wood in the air. This shot, taken at 9.30am and capturing the orange hue in the atmosphere, is straight from the phone camera without any processing other than adding a frame.

 

Thirty minutes later, after checking the satellite images with our Tour Agent, we set off on a 6 day ride down towards Lisbon. I can't say the first day was anything other than a tad uncomfortable - but nowhere near as challenging as it was for the firefighting teams at the heart of things gradually getting on top of the problem. Obrigado aos bravos bombeiros.

Stacked my 10 stop and 6 stop and took this snap at our maximum coverage of the sun here in Baltimore. The overall light outside is pretty cool too.

 

If you view large you can start to make out patterns on the sun as well as peaks along the moon edge.

 

Happy Solar Eclipse Day ;)

OK...so I have seen postage stamps bigger than the article the Telegraph wrote on my work the other day, but all coverage is good coverage as far as I am concerned. Thanks Telegraph!

After missing the first two days of Texans training camp before agreeing to a five-year, $14 million contract Saturday, outside linebacker Brian Cushing is eager to get on the practice field today with his new teammates.

Cushing, the first-round draft choice from Southern California, is getting $10.435 million in guaranteed money to become the starter on the strong side and help improve a defense that ranked 22nd last season, including 23rd against the run.

“I’m just relieved and excited to have this done,” Cushing said. “I’m ready to play football and help the team win.”

Cushing (6-3, 262) was in Los Angeles when agent Tom Condon reached the agreement with general manager Rick Smith and director of football administration Chris Olsen.

Cushing’s contract could be worth a maximum of $18 million over five years.

In the fifth year of his deal, there’s a clause that could earn him an additional $4 million in an escalator bonus.

Odds are that Cushing’s contract will be extended before he enters the fifth season in 2013.

Smith and Olsen will have all eight of their draft choices under contract when the Texans take the field for the third day of two-a-day drills at their Methodist Training Center.

“It’s very important to have him signed,” coach Gary Kubiak said. “Rick and Chris were up at 3 in the morning trying to get it done. They’ve done a good job.

“Brian’s two days behind now, but he didn’t miss anything we did in the offseason program, so that’s a good thing. He wanted to be here while we were working on the contract, but he couldn’t.”

Rookies who have signed with the Texans report a week early for conditioning and meetings before practicing for the first time with the veterans. Cushing wanted to report with the rookies.

He was working out at Reliant Stadium last week when the Texans had to explain league rules that forced him to leave.

Cushing took what turned out to be a quick trip back to Los Angeles. He returned to Houston on Saturday afternoon.

Texans coaches are excited to get him on the practice field.

“We’re going to put the pads on (Sunday morning), and I know he’s chomping at the bit to get out there,” Kubiak said.

After the Texans used the 15th pick in the first round on Cushing, they inserted him into the starting lineup. He impressed his coaches in the organized team activities and minicamp.

“We like his presence on the ball,” Kubiak said, meaning Cushing has a knack for finding the ball and making plays. “He’s playing over the tight end, and we’re going to ask him to do a great deal. We think he can handle it.

“Brian’s very athletic. He’s physical against the run. He can rush the passer. He can drop into coverage. We brought him here for a reason, and we’re going to put him to work real fast.”

Frank Bush, who is in his first season as defensive coordinator, has to make calls that maximize Cushing’s strengths. The faster Cushing learns, the quicker Bush plans to utilize all his talent.

“We’re going to try to take advantage of all his talent,” Bush said. “Because he’s such a talented kid, there are a lot of things we can do with him.”

The coaches say they think Cushing has everything it takes to become a star at his position.

“Brian can turn and run with the tight end,” Bush said. “He’s big and strong enough to strike them at the line of scrimmage and nullify some of their speed down the field, so we’re comfortable with him in coverage.

“His ability also gives us a chance to be aggressive toward the quarterback. He’s a big guy who’s shown he can get there.”

Welcome to my coverage of Arca, an experimental, science fiction diorama featuring the work of Max Pointner, Ian Spacek, and myself.

 

Cultivation

Corruption

 

The planet has become bare. What once was a land of towering forests, expansive grasslands, and thick jungles is now nothing more than a rocky sphere orbiting a dying star. It was the darkness, seeping out of the planet’s core, which harkened back a time of emptiness, a time before color, movement, life. Yet the Inhabitants of the planet were prepared. As the surface of the planet was cast into destruction, they erected a new structure, a pyramid on which to found new cities, and in which to sustain life. Built high on the apex of the tallest mountain, it had little contact with the ground, and was designed to withstand the corrupting darkness. Protruding from the sides of this monument were many cubes of glass, each containing a garden of lush grasses, verdurous plants, and drooping vines. The Inhabitants lived on the top of their edifice, constructing cities of skyscrapers, streams, garden towers, generators, and monorails. All that was necessary to sustain life on the now barren planet was housed within this citadel, and the Inhabitants remained there for many years.

 

Yet darkness finds a way. The Inhabitants had designed their citadel to keep out all chaos, all contaminants, even to defy time’s destructive power. They did not realize that the threat they faced was not the absence of life, but an entity in itself, hungrily swallowing all it encountered. Seeping up through the rock, it struck the base of the edifice, crept up its central core, and ate away at the life it contained, shattering glass gardens, toppling towers of civilization, and squeezing the walls into that elemental shape: the cube.

 

Max Pointner has crafted an in-depth look at the creative process behind Arca. Check it out here.

The coverage of 16mm can include your toes and maybe shows too much of some subjects. Here Toe Free is a mainly quiet just off the roadside evening scene. Without added LED illumination from a none photographic light there would be less to see, less contrast, less colour and less shadow realm within the hedgerow, the mainly quiet just off the roadside almost hedgerow.

 

These flowers are blooming on track off the roadside. They are a part of an ad hoc hedgerow. They have sprung up where they stand. It is fortunate that they have had a chance to rise and to fulfil nature that adapts and adopts wherever it can taking every opportunity and each chance to enhance the world that we share for the better for all of us.

Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have captured the most comprehensive picture ever assembled of the evolving Universe – and one of the most colourful. The study is called the Ultraviolet Coverage of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (UVUDF) project.

Darkroom print of 6x9 cm negative with 80mm lens. Not enough coverage....

in 1966, at independence, botswana was the second poorest country in the world. perhaps that is why it was not fought over by the colonial powers. since independence, the discovery of diamonds changed the economics of the country. the government actually used diamond revenues to invest in health and education. every citizen has health care coverage, private insurances compete with the national service.

 

tomorrow, june 25, a major rally will be held in washington dc, by the national physician's alliance (a group that emerged out of a student organization so that physicians for whom patient advocacy was a core value, could have a voice). the us struggles to provide health coverage to all. the american medical association has once again shown its venal nature by opposing any national health plan as an option on the table.

Some black clouds are roll'n in.

Animal overpopulation in the East End is a major problem, slowly but surely we are getting support from the media in addressing the importance of Spay/Neuter.

The trouble with getting coverage every day for 5 weeks straight is that you end up with quite a backlog of photos to edit. I've slowly started getting around to editing my shots of Japan & this one had been in the back of my mind since I landed back in Australia.

 

On the Chichibu Railway, a DeKi 500 locomotive is seen crawling across the famous Arakawa River bridge working empty limestone train #7305 from the Taiheiyo Cement plant in Kumagaya to the mine in Kagemori.

 

After spending 3 weeks solo in Taiwan & Korea it was a welcome change to be joined by two good friends from back home (also railfans), in the process I somehow doubled up as a tour guide & a translator despite only knowing about 4 sentences in Japanese.

 

I didn't have much of a plan this time around, the main thing I came back for was the EF64s on the Hakubi line, anything else that was seen would be considered a bonus. Safe to say our trip got off to a very rough start. After convening in Narita we drove up to Chichibu to shoot some limestone trains, everything was looking promising with 2 spotless days forecast. Only problem was, the trains weren't running. After spending the morning hoping one would turn up we went to a few stations to ask the staff if they knew anything about the limestone trains running. Sadly they had been suspended for the weekend.

 

We made our way to Fuji the next day & got our EF210 fix. Next on the hitlist was the Sangi Railway, surely that would be running right? No. We spent the afternoon sat at Nyugawa waiting for something to turn up. Having seen nothing, we went to the station & the guys asked the station master if any cement trains were running. He made a few phone calls & told us that nothing was running for the next few days. Safe to say things were looking bleak.

 

From the next day onwards we finally started seeing results, the Hakubi line certainly didn't disappoint & when we went back to Chichibu for the second time we were pleased to find the limestone trains were running.

 

It was certainly a rollercoaster of a trip. With about 4000km of driving, god knows how many litres of Sake & Strong Zero's consumed, it was a fantastic time. I look forward to coming back to Japan again in the near future.
