To most of us, a wasp is an annoying insect that does its best to ruin a picnic. That is the Common Wasp, a social insect that is part of the family Vespidae. However there are three other families of wasp that live in the UK - Potter and Mason wasps; Spider-hunting wasps; and Digger wasps. This is a Digger wasp, of which we have about 110 different species. They are solitary insects, each female making her own nest in the earth, which she stocks with paralysed insects..

Wednesday was a lovely bright sunny day.

 

I am really miffed that we have to have these vehicles all along the south coast, shifting the beach back and forth. Why can't they just replace the groynes? Surely that would be much cheaper ... OH but wait, those that be like wasting our money.

I have been taking my camera out for a walk again, which is fun, especially with the wide angle lens I sport.

 

I came upon this digger near my studio and thought it would make for a nice HDR experiment.

I'm not a great fan of HDR photography, as they always seem to be too much of everything. It's quite a balancing act to creat a nice HDR.

Nevertheless I do like to experiment and try out different styles and techniques, just to keep the edge in my work. So here's my little experiment into the HDR field.

Looking for some grub.

I thought I´ve to try something new. So I work with gimp and try to realize a tilt-shift effect. But im not satisfied with the result. Never mind! I load it up!

 

The picture is an old pic from my archieve (hdri) with the title "Men at work".

Great Golden Digger wasp, Sphex ichneumoneus, on mint flowers. Leavenworth, Kansas, August 4, 2019.

Thought I'd treat this (semi?) retired and rusting Priestman excavator to a

3 minute makeover with magenta, yellow and natural LED.

LARGE view

 

A set of car headlights tried to get in on the act but by the time they

made it to the top of the hill, time was up and the digger

returned to its un-pimped state, just like nothing ever happened.

 

In the prime of its life, this particular Priestman was one of a pair of

excavators used to build the road to Rhenigidale, North Harris. Until

the road's completion in 1990, the local postman used to walk the scenic

(but treacherous in places) coastal path from the village to Tarbert Post Office three times a week. The path was also used as a route by the Rhenigidale children on their daily journey to the school at Tarbert, a round trip of 10 miles!

 

The new road to Rhenigidale is 4 miles long and connects with the main

A859, north of Tarbert.

The auger rotates under the boom, then flips down. The outriggers and boom can handle much more weight than this. The auger itself spins freely. The rear stabilizers do not support any weight, but the front ones can handle loads.

This is taken at Evening Hill in Poole Harbour which apart from being a much photographed place because of the sunsets over the harbour, is also a bait diggers paradise. This man was digging for rag worm which he sells for a living. He was digging bait into the night to make the most of the low tide so had to work by the light of a head torch.

digger, fitted out with new gear sent in from Canada! A netted brodie helmet and a custom painted Lee Enfield rifle! Big thanks to Calhigh, a great guy, a great friend, and a great Flickr member and trader, from whom I bought these, plus freebies! Thanks very much for those Morgan. :)
