Don't go out on Devil's Night.

Stay in your bed and keep on the light.

Little demons and ghouls have their fun all right,

outside on the streets this Devil's Night.

 

You don't want to know what mischief they cause.

On Halloween Eve they run without pause,

flying and laughing, and breaking the laws,

you really don't want to see the mischief they've caused.

 

Please heed my words, stay under the covers,

and tell your friends and your sisters, and of course your brothers.

Stay in bed, don't even peek through the shutters,

'cause a goblin or ghost may spook you to stutters.

 

Just wait until daybreak on Halloween Day,

when you know all the ghouls and ghosts are away.

They hate the daylight, "it's no fun," they say.

So just please, please wait to Trick or Treat on Halloween Day.

To draw attention to the plight of the Tasmanian devil I am going to be making a work a day throughout October inspired by Tasmanian Devils.

Tasmanian Devils population has declined by 90% in large areas of Tasmania due to Devil facial tumor disease. In November I will be taking part in the Garmin Point to Pinnacle; a 21.4km long and just over 1,270 meters in elevation run up Tasmania's Mount Wellington to raise money for The Devil Island Project (www.savethetasmaniandevil.org.au/) If you would like to sponsor me you can at this link> garmin-point

Approaching Devils Tower. If you stare at the tower for awhile, it looks like the clouds are drifting.

Stopped for a bite to eat half way up Devil's Kitchen. Not a bad view really :-)

This little lizard looks dangerous but is harmless. It has the ability to drink water by way of it's feet.

 

It was presented at show at the resort that allowed guests to get up close to animals found in the region.

See where the photo was taken at maps.yuan.cc/.

Took this as we started walking on the Tower Trail - a one mile loop trail around Devils Tower butte.

 

There was a break in the rail so we go some good shots in with the sun shining on it.

West window of the outer north aisle by Burlison & Grylls, c1910.

 

Rugby's parish church of St Andrew is an imposing landmark in the town centre, and highly unusual in possessing two towers, one 15th century with battlements at the west end, and the tapering steeple by William Butterfield at the north east corner, part of his rebuilding of the ancient church. (unusual as this two-towered church is, the town's catholic church also evolved in a similar way, thus both major churches share the effect of asymmetrical towers, a unique situation in Britain).

 

The arrangement was even more impressive until 1983 when the massive nearby 1870s George Gilbert Scott church of the Holy Trinity, technically sharing the same churchyard, was tragically demolished.

 

The medieval St Andrew's had already been much altered, having begun life as a village church it was gradually expanded to serve the growing town. The nave had been enlarged in the 1800s and by the time of Butterfield's further expansion of the building in 1877-85 only the west tower and the north nave arcade survived of the medieval building. These were retained, the old nave effectively becoming the north aisle (and outer north aisle!) of a much larger nave built to the south, complete with south aisle and a lofty chancel.

 

The interior is therefore every bit as eccentric as the exterior, with Butterfield's characteristic use of coloured stonework and a sanctuary rich in marble finishes. The most dramatic feature is the chancel arch surmounted by a cross adorned with geometric patterning and supported by richly carved corbels. The font too betray's Butterfield's love of contrasting coloured marbles.

 

The stained glass in the main east and west windows (along with the north and south windows of the sanctuary) is by Clayton & Bell. The remainder, in the aisles and the large Baptism window under the north steeple (difficult to see since conversion to a vestry) is all the work of Burlison & Grylls of London, with their characteristic neo-Flemish fine drawing in subdued tones.

 

The church is usually open and welcoming during the day with a small cafe set up at the west end. I am especially grateful to Helen Bryant on my latest visit for giving me access to the vestries to photograph the glass there.

restaurant...a welcome cup of tea..

Trachybasalt in the Pleistocene of California, USA.

 

Famous localities for seeing excellent columnar jointing include Giants Causeway (Ireland), Devils Tower (Wyoming, USA), and Devils Postpile (California, USA). Columnar jointing forms as a lava flow cools and contracts, resulting in the development of shrinkage cracks. As shrinkage cracks grow, they branch at ~120Âş angles (as seen in plan view). Crack networks merge with other networks to form columns having a polygonal cross-section shape. Most columns are hexagonal or pentagonal in shape. A few are 3-sided, 4-sided, or 7-sided.

 

Devils Postpile is a trachybasalt (or basaltic trachyandesite) lava flow with well-developed columnar jointing. Erosion has toppled many of the columns into a large pile at the base of the flow. The flow represents part of the activity of the Long Valley Volcano, which is now a large caldera in the eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. The Devils Postpile lava flow erupted outside the southwestern margin of the Long Valley Caldera.

 

Stratigraphy: Postpile Flow, Upper Pleistocene, 82 ka

 

Locality: Devils Postpile National Monument, west of town of Mammoth Lakes, eastern California, USA

I just REALLY wanted some Deviled Eggs the other day so I made some. It was my first time. It was so damn good. I'd make some more *right now* but my carton of eggs is at Paula's apt because I baked my cupcake class cupcakes over there. Grr.

Tasmanian devil - photo taken in the early morning

Photo copyright (not public domain)

When He created a little devil, like any proud mom the good Lord exclaimed "Darling little devil !!".And yes,this was long long ago,when the devil was a tiny tot and amused God with his endless pranks on the good little angels.He would steal their halos while they slept and prance around with the halos hung on his little horns.And then one day as he grew up,,like any harassed mom the good Lord exclaimed "The devil !!" :D.The good little devil is approximately 6 inches.

that's Brandy in the background.....

The reflective surfaces are not textures!

 

Mumixer had pointed me in the direction of Devil's Moon a few weeks ago but with one thing and another I only made it out there today - and fell flat on my face so to speak: I was always under the impression that reflections and reflectivity is beyond the scope of present day real time render. So, how on earth did they achieve this? And why does it create no lag whatsoever? I took a lot of screenshots, some from the exact same location at slight angle variations since I want my computer scientist colleague, Selim to take a look at these and tell me what the hell is going on here...

 

Beautiful SIM too btw, but quite frankly the technology had me so gobsmacked that I couldn't really take much else in. Will go back for sure.

 

6 hours later:

 

ahum... Mossy put me wise: It is an extremely clever design trick: They did the entire architecture twice, one being the perpendicular mirror image of the other and then interleaved it with those transparent textures.

 

jeez... am i embarrassed or what?

Sketched while waiting for a ranger-led hike to begin. After I started sketching the rocks, an Iron Brigade reenactor walked into the foreground and a visitor approached him to talk. This sesquiscentennial was a sketcher's paradise!

 

The hike took us through Rose Woods to the Wheatfield, from which we could see the Peach Orchard. Those names sound very pleasant and pastoral, but the scene was anything but pleasant on July 2, 1863. The bloody wheatfield changed hands some five or six times that day.
