Only a few seconds before I mounted the fisheye, so sorry for the distortion.
At least one picture each day at:

Un dettaglio della testina di un moderno hard disk. Si nota il sottile film che contiene le piste elettriche che fungono da sensori per distinguere un bit.
COCHITI LAKE, N.M. — A Secchi Disk suspended at the water's edge on Cochiti Lake. Secchi disks are used to measure the clarity of water. The lake is downstream from canyons severely burned in the Las Conchas fire. Debris, including ash, is beginning to enter the lake. Cochiti Dam and Lake were built by and are run by the Albuquerque District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

I saw this plow disk cooker at the Diamond Springs Labor Day Bazaar at Charlotte's Bakery & Cafe. Mounted on a 60,000 BTU propane burner, the pan appeared to be a homemade. It's a cross between the shallow chef's sautee pan and a cast iron skillet.
The cooker was constructed to sit securely on the burner. The last thing you want is to accidently dump hot oil onto the burner. It looks like the cooker was made from of a discarded plow disk. The plow disk cooker can be used as a wok, heavy skillet or pan fryer.
Former Young Marble Giant and Weekender Alison Statton resurfaced in the late '80s as one half of the Celtic-tinged folk-pop duo Devine & Statton, along with Mancunian songwriter-guitarist Ian Devine.
The pair made two albums, 1989's "The Prince of Wales" (which featured a cover of New Order's "Bizarre Love Triangle") and 1990s "Cardiffians".
This single, released in June 1990, was taken from the latter album.
Fire of Earth. Landed knight, farmer. Harvest. Steward of the earth/material. "Fighting" with tangible wealth as the primary "weapon". Grounded. If moved to anger, volcano & scorched earth.
(I actually know which cards I intend for 2015, but, Mom died, my landlords sold my place, I had to move myself, and we're still sorting out her estate. I'll get to 2015's cards, eventually.)
Mom loved Austen, which led to me watching Pride & Prejudice when it very timely turned up on Netflix. Mom would've liked a Darcy Valentine.
He seems to me a Knight of Disks.
Images:
Darcy on horseback. A photo of an actual horse. Filters include: an HTDA image & tree roots grown around a Buddha, both from previous cards; a new fordite image (since modern Darcy archetypes would be into cars). Assorted images of the peak district & Chatsworth (i.e. Pemberley), including the hedge maze & art installations, to help form the shield base for my "Chokkomon" disk design. I even tried to find images of stags that live near Chatsworth, but none had antlers close to a decent angle.
The Antlers actually go with the traditional depiction of the card (a very earth-bound, staid interpretation of the Green Man). It's not just the long running joke (among #amnin friends) of putting antlers on things.
A bulldozer uses disks to refresh and widen a firebreak to the full specification of a forester’s firebreak plan for retired school principal Yvonne Knight-Carter's family land that qualifies for implementation and maintenance of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Conservation Practice Firebreak (Code 394) on the forested land behind her childhood home and other neighboring family homes, near Moncks Corners, SC, on November 19, 2020. The firebreak line marks the stop of a lightning strike fire that threatened the homes and surrounding area. She works with NRCS Soil Conservationist Jabril Wright worked with Ms. Knight-Carter during her application and conducts site visits to ensure state and local coordination and work is happening as planned.

A row of removable disk packs. I don't know the storage capacity of these, but it would be small compared with what we use today!
For this project we had to take a picture of a CD and put water droplets on it, black out the room, and point flashlights on the cd so that the colors came out in the reflection of the cd. I didnt like how the cd looked with the flashlights on it so i decided to use a flashlight on my phone that was much brighter and brought out the color reflections alot more. i found a little difficulty in this project because it was hard to get everything completely in focus and all the bubbles. Once i retook pictures and looked through them, this one appealed to me the most. all the bubbles were in focus and sharp and i loved how there were colors on the top and bottom instead of all over and i thought there was a really nice pattern to it. overall i enjoyed this project mostly because i was very proud of the outcome

Found in an abandoned office. Although I'm not impressed with Windows 10, I don't think I'd want to go back this far!
A view of the disk platters for this ICL disk drive. The entire unit is capable of storing 80MB of data.
A lab, with lots of boxes and random materials all over the place. Note how the open drawer contains a single floppy disk. The R on the trash can indicates that it is to be used for radioactive or otherwise dangerous waste.

===============================
"Eine Diskette ist ein magnetischer Datenträger, der zur Datenspeicherung verwendet wird. Sie besteht aus einer flexiblen Kunststoffscheibe – daher die englische Bezeichnung „floppy disk“ oder kurz „Floppy“, was deutsch ungefähr mit „wabbelige Scheibe“ zu übersetzen wäre. Diese Scheibe ist mit einem magnetisierbaren Material, meistens Eisenoxid, beschichtet. Zum Schutz ist sie meistens in einem Kunststoffgehäuse (früher Pappe) verpackt, das je nach Diskettentyp entweder ebenfalls biegsam oder starr ist.
Im Unterschied zu Festplatten schleift der Schreib-/Lesekopf bei Disketten direkt auf der beschichteten magnetisierbaren Oberfläche, was mit der Zeit zu deutlichem Abrieb führt und die dauerhafte Verwendbarkeit von Disketten stark einschränkt.
Außerdem schleift auch die Magnetscheibe direkt an der umgebenden, fest im Laufwerk liegenden Hülle. Daher wird diese Hülle auf der Innenseite mit Teflon-beschichtetem (oder ähnlichem) Gewebe ausgestattet, um die Reibung zu minimieren." Quelle und weitere Informationen: Wikipedia: Diskette
