This is a 'kozolec', a vertical drying rack structure made of wood, upon which fodder for animals is dried. It is often artistically designed and handcrafted and it represents an important part of Slovene architecture and identity.
"Every family has its inventor, almost always
without patent; one's father invented recessed lights,
another's great uncle a kind of screw ....
Pondering the immense fortunes we are not heir to,
we turn off the lamps in the room by pull-chain,
by turn-knob, by wall-switch (in this case two buttons,
one of which pops out when the other is pressed),
and by a small pole pushed through a lightbulb's base.
Genius, perhaps, is making anything
worth the world's stealing."
~ Jane Hirshfield, 1953- ~
From "The Four-Postered Beds of Mycenae"
During a brief lull in the pandemic, Denmark and Norway were "green" and safe for careful travel. During that period I rented a car and spent just under two weeks driving from Tromso, through Senja, then up past Alta to Nordkapp, before returning to Senja and Tromso. These photos showcase the beautiful greens of Norway's Arctic North in the peak of summer.

"The tour starts with the bottom rung of the domestic staff, the laundresses.
The laundry areas in these country estates always interests me. The women - always women, of course - who were responsible for laundering were among the hardest-working of all servants."

I love the old hefty cotton linens all white and starched in those days and I love photographing them too --
Another one for the drying rack photo collage I'll be making soon. :-)
Seeing the pretty color combinations in my drying rack makes it fun to use Pyrex.
Drying rack set. :-)
Having spent a bit of time chasing and shooting sunflowers this year, it is now time for the sunflowers to wrap up their bloom and produce seeds. In this case, a bunch of a smaller type of sunflower had been cut for use as part of a dining table centre-piece and, once they faded (rather quickly as it turned out) they were placed on a small laundry drying rack to see if they would form seeds. - JW

PP in free Open Source RAWTherapee from Nikon RAW/NEF source file: set final image size to be 9000 px wide, set exposure compensation to EV+1.20 (brighter than as-shot), enable Tone Mapping and adjust it to just bring out seed area detail, increase brightness, Contrast and Chromaticity in L-A-B mode, slightly boost Vibrance, sharpen (edges only) and enable micro-contrast at default level, save. PP in free Open Source GIMP: fine tune overall tonality of the blooms using the tone curve tool to set the black point at the base of the data and slightly brighten the upper portion of the curve, remove a slight residual blue-green colour cast using the colour balance tool, duplicate the image to 2 new layers and add a black/transparent layer mask to the lower of the two, then on the upper layer apply the threshold tool to create a mask that just leaves the background white with no tonal values and then copy and paste this mask to the mask of the layer below, then on the masked layer adjust the background tonality to fade it out as much as possible without sacrificing/blowing out the wire frame stand, create new working layer from visible result, sharpen, save, scale image to 6000 px wide, sharpen, add fine black-and-white frame, add bar and text on left, save, scale image to 2048 px wide for posting online, sharpen, save.
This is the new press that I built. It is raised and has gaps for sleeves and collars to fall into when printing on shirts or hoodies, so no more annoying wrinkles. (beats buying a t shirt press) I built the thing completely out of scrap wood so I really didn't have to spend any money at all which was fantastic. And that is wednesday the house cat taking a nap who tragically died shortly after this photo was taken (RIP wednesday) I got the plans from bloody bunnys flickr stream and they work great. Thanks a ton!

Polar Bear skin and walrus meat drying on racks in Yupik village of Gambell on the western tip of St. Lawrence Island, Alaska. June 1999. K200
As a wee lad, my mother taught me to put knives in the drying rack with the blade pointing upwards. The logic was that the water, then, wouldn't dry on the blade itself... it would run down to the handle. This, I presumed, she had learned while working as a waitress as a young woman. I recall, too, that rinse water had to be (something like) 75°F or higher per New York state safety laws.

A dead on view of the garden fencing placed on the carpet rack. If you look close, you can see the metal stake woven through the front end of the fencing to strengthen it. This makes a very nice drying rack.
The laundry at the National Trust property Killerton House, formerly seat of the Acland family.
The drying rack: large wooden construction to insert the damp washing into a heated drying enclosure, fed by another coal stove. The racks pull out on runners.
This is for Kate's Brilliant Photo A Day Challenge - the theme is "hanging laundry".

What the drying rack is really for, as opposed to its use yesterday to wind yarn.
What a horrible mess on the carpet!
