I look at the image and see a tower and flagpole that have differing opinions of which way up is, oh yes there’s a skeleton with an arrow in the neck too, don’t mention the modern communication device in the space of the crenelation crowning the tower. The scarecrow with wings is a very effective addition to the Dirleton scarecrow village wide display. I did see the skeleton first, but before enjoying the beautifully boned subject of the picture I had to take a peek at the areas I might try to alter. I see a communications-aerial-box-flat-disk-inflated-casserole-dish thing in the crenellations and that is not conveying the aesthetic of the potential picture that I have in mind. I find shrouds of clouds and flagpole de-wonking tools. After hiding and straightening I seek out my current favourite Oils and Pastels effects. Suddenly there are 5 edits available to view. After just a photographic touch of affection I can enjoy the completed edits looking less modern and also appreciate the original with communications-aerial-box-flat-disk-inflated-casserole-dish thing in the crenellations perched for purpose fulfilling the role it is intended for and a tower and flagpole that have gloriously differing opinions of which way up is.

I'm doing a bit of horse photography in the lockdown. It was very effective to get them to pose in the doorway of the stable yard to give dark a background.
Trying out tethered shooting. Wireless its clunky but reasonably effective. An equipment update incoming for sure Learned quite a bit from experiments and first run. Exciting way to get pictures!
October Milky Way over Temple of the Moon, Cathedral Valley, Capitol Reef National Park, Utah - with low-level stationary light painting. This natural monument is 270 feet (82 m.) high, or about 27 stories.
I used 2 F&V Z96 LED panel lights filtered to 3200ºK. They were left on during the entire exposure time. The left light was placed about 600 feet away and set at full power. The right (fill) light was placed about 500 feet away and set at 1/3 power. With some foreground features, you can dim the lights to the lowest setting (about 1/16 power), and this is usually enough LLL (Low Level Landscape Lighting) for objects up to 100 feet away. 600 feet requires full power, and is the maximum effective distance for these lights.
The Gloster Gladiator occupies a unique place in aviation history as the RAF’s last operational biplane fighter. Entering service in the mid-1930s, it arrived just as fighter design was rapidly shifting toward faster monoplane aircraft.
Despite its traditional layout, the Gladiator proved agile, robust, and effective in early Second World War service. It flew in several theatres, most famously during the defence of Malta, where the aircraft earned an almost legendary reputation for gallantry against overwhelming odds.
Today, the Gladiator stands as a symbol of a transitional era — bridging the romantic age of biplanes and the modern high-speed fighters that soon followed.
I really enjoyed this frog pattern, it was effective without many difficult folds. I really liked that the front had enough details to get fingers and that the back was kept simple to give a childlike whimsy to the model. I'm tempted to fold it again and try to add toes to the hind legs. But who knows if that'll actually happen :)
Pattern is: "Frog" from the book "Advanced Origami - An Artist's Guide to Folding Techniques and Paper" by Michael G. LaFosse and Richard L. Alexander

psychosocial therapies are part of the standard management of schizophrenic illnesses, but have not been subjected to systematic evaluation and are therefore not included in this guideline. This does not imply that they are not essential components of good practice.
The remainder of this section describes the evidence for the effectiveness of Education Programmes, Family Interventions, and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy in the management of schizophrenia. Section 3 provides recommendations for the application of these interventions in clinical practice, according to the phase of the illness.
Education programmes
Education Programmes are directed at either patients or carers/family members and have several aims. Improvement in knowledge of schizophrenia and its course and in compliance with treatment has been shown. There is also evidence of greater satisfaction with services provided. Some programmes go beyond the provision of information and take an educational approach to skills training or problem solving.
Education Programmes for patients may be undertaken in individual or in group settings. Simple information-giving is less effective than interactive sessions. The focus includes giving information about the course and management of the illness, including the importance of compliance with medication and the management of stress.
Providing carers and family members with information on the likely course of the illness, the treatments available, the importance of compliance and the services available is an essential element of good practice It may be undertaken as part of a Family Intervention programme
Specific techniques, e.g. use of homework or video, have not been shown to improve the assimilation of information, but a group setting has advantages
Family interventions
The aims of 'Family Intervention' include reduction of frequency of relapse into illness and reduction of hospital admissions, reduction in the burden of care on families and carers, and improvement in compliance with medication.
Some Family Intervention Programmes have targeted families where there are high levels of criticism, hostility and over-involvement. 'High expressed emotion' is a measure of these features and programmes which reduce this or reduce the amount of 'face to face' contact between the patient and family members have been shown to reduce the frequency of relapse. However, the measurement of expressed emotion is a research technique which is not practical for everyday use. Family Intervention Programmes which are not derived from this theoretical background have been shown to be effective.
Most intervention strategies contain more than one technique. Separating and defining the effects of the components of an intervention strategy is not possible at present as few studies examine the effect of a single technique and only a general description of interventions used in research studies is usually given. However, a number of practice guides have been published which give detailed descriptions of the techniques employed in some studies. Family Intervention has been shown to be effective with some variation in the components of the programme, but family sessions to address the problems identified in the analysis may not be effective if the patient is not included. Social skills training and vocational rehabilitation were included in some studies. These are not covered as separate interventions in the guideline.
Cognitive behaviour therapy
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for psychosis is a modification of standard cognitive behavioural therapy. The aim is to modify symptoms (e.g. delusions, hallucinations) or the consequences of the symptoms which may be cognitive, emotional, physiological or behavioural. The treatment programme is intensive (involving about 20 hours of individual treatment) and based on an individually tailored formulation which provides an explanation of the development, maintenance and exacerbation of symptoms and of pre-morbid mood, interpersonal and behavioural difficulties.
There is now good evidence that treatment resistant symptoms (delusions, hallucinations) can be substantially reduced in a significant proportion of those who complete therapy. It is not yet clear who is most likely to benefit from treatment and many patients may be unwilling to participate. The treatment is well tolerated. However, reduction of symptoms has not been shown to lead to significant social or lifestyle improvements.
A combination of the following techniques has been shown to be most effective in lessening symptoms of psychosis resistant to other forms of treatment:
◦enhancement of cognitive behavioural coping strategies5
◦developing a rationale to explain symptoms28◦realistic goal setting
◦modification of delusional beliefs29◦modification of dysfunctional assumptions.
A number of these techniques are a refinement of normal good practice using a systematic approach.
'Early Intervention Studies' have aimed to identify prodromal symptoms or the 'signature' preceding relapse. The approach is not a form of cognitive therapy, but early intervention with medication or Cognitive Behaviour Therapy may be facilitated
I shot this picture because of the hoarding I have marked on the Picture. They have made the posture of the girl a little scary to look at. But we also saw everyone was looking at the hoarding. Smart ploy by the guys who designed it , need to see how effective it is but it surely is getting the eyes.

Villa Borghese Pinciana is a villa built by the architect Flaminio Ponzio, developing sketches by Scipione Borghese.
Borghese was a maternal nephew of Pope Paul V. He wielded enormous power as the Pope's secretary and effective head of the Vatican government, and became very wealthy. In 1607, he began construction of a villa on the Pincian Hill just north of the Pincian Gate in Rome.
The work was begun by architect Flaminio Ponzio, who had recently worked on the Palazzo Borghese. Upon Ponzio's death in 1613, the work was continued by his assistant Giovanni Vasanzio, who designed the facade. The portico had spolia derived from the Arch of Claudius, once on the Via Flaminia. The two-story central hall was known as the Salone.
The Casino Nobile was less a residence than a retreat for Borghese and his uncle to escape the summer heat of the city and to host receptions for dignitaries. It was also a semi-public museum to house his art collection, including sculptures commissioned from Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Borghese entertained guests in the open loggia on the second floor, where Giovanni Lanfranco painted a large ceiling fresco in quadratura The Gods of Olympus also called Council of the Gods.
The Borghese Balustrade was crafted by G di Gincome and P. Massoni in 1618 for the south forecourt of the Casino Nobile. At the center opening there were two stone statues on top and fountains with shell-shaped basins below. The statues were a later addition from 1715 by Claude-Augustin Cayot. In 1896, William Waldorf Astor, former U.S. Minister to Italy, purchased the balustrade and had it installed at his English estate Cliveden. It is a Grade II Listed Building.
Around 1770, Marcantonio Borghese, 5th Prince of Sulmona began recreating the villa as a museum. Old tapestry and leather hangings were removed, new ceiling decorations commissioned and the Casina renovated, according to designs by Antonio Asprucci and his son Mario. Much of the sculpted decorations were done by Vincenzo Pacetti.
The Galleria Borghese now occupies the villa, and the Villa Borghese gardens surround the villa.
Other villas held by the Borghese family may also be known as Villa Borghese.

Le Théâtre Olympique , commencé en 1580 comme dernier projet de Palladio et achevé par son élève Vincenzo Scamozzi , est le premier exemple de théâtre couvert permanent de l' époque moderne . Achevé à titre posthume, il se limitait à la cavea avec loggia et proscenium . Scamozzi a conçu les décors en bois, très efficaces pour leur illusionnisme de perspective et leur souci du détail, et que l'on peut encore admirer aujourd'hui. Inauguré le 3 mars 1585 avec la représentation d' Œdipe Roi de Sophocle , il est toujours utilisé. Les décors, créés spécialement pour cette représentation, représentent les sept rues de la ville de Thèbes et utilisent la technique de la perspective accélérée pour donner l'impression que l'espace est beaucoup plus long qu'il ne l'est en réalité (quelques mètres). Le théâtre, avec son grand mur d'avant-scène, ses nombreuses statues et décorations, a été réalisé en bois et en stuc.
The Olympic Theatre, begun in 1580 as Palladio's last project and completed by his pupil Vincenzo Scamozzi, is the first example of a permanent covered theatre of the modern era. Completed posthumously, it was limited to the cavea with loggia and proscenium. Scamozzi designed the wooden scenery, very effective for its perspective illusionism and attention to detail, and which can still be admired today. Inaugurated on 3 March 1585 with the performance of Sophocles' Oedipus the King, it is still in use. The scenery, created especially for this performance, represents the seven streets of the city of Thebes and uses the technique of accelerated perspective to give the impression that the space is much longer than it actually is (a few meters). The theatre, with its large proscenium wall, numerous statues and decorations, was made of wood and stucco.

Hey everyone! The crack of the morning, I have a little something to share with you. Minimalism is what it is. Consisting of dull colour tones, little no vibrancy other than the golden accents which highlight the soft silky cushion, connecting with the French door handles, and accented finishes on the industrial iron cabinetry, a very smooth and delicious pallet of browns, beige's, gunmetal blacks, leather, silk, duke woven poufs, small knick-knacks that aren't compulsory but show's that you can have minimal clutter which still looks effective, without going over the top. So the build itself is set in a European setting, with a mix of Retro, meets industrial modern.

The metre gauge Aigle–Ollon–Monthey–Champéry railway line climbs approximately 2000 feet to its mountain terminus at Champéry which sits 3,441 feet above sea level. We travelled on the train from the Corbier stop - on the outskirts of Monthey, with a seamless change from the mainline station nearby. The line features on street running in Monthey where following a call at the Ville station, the train retraces its steps northwards before the line to Champéry diverges from the Aigle line. The Monthey-Champéry section was a dramatic ride into the mountains, with several sections of rack railway, permitting some impressive gradients. The line is operated by smart Stadler two car EMUs - comfortable, panoramic views from the large windows, and very effective air conditioning. This photos was taken from the upper terminus of the Champéry-Croix Crulet cable car, which achieves an altitude of around 6,348 feet. The train in the photo has just departed Champéry, bound for Aigle.
Sabrosa is a fast-attack pirate skiff operating out of the Jovian system. She’s not pretty, not balanced, and not remotely subtle — but she’s brutally effective.
Built around an exposed truss frame and a compact central hull, Sabrosa trades comfort for performance. The crew compartment is cramped and industrial, but she can remain on patrol for up to a week at a time thanks to efficient life support and aggressive ration discipline.
Powered by a high-output fusion torch main drive with integrated reactor core, Sabrosa delivers obscene thrust-to-mass ratios for her class.
Eight independent RCS thruster modules mounted along the truss booms give her exceptional rotational authority and lateral translation — she can pivot, flip, and burn in ways larger ships simply can’t match.
She’s fast.
She’s nimble.
She hits hard and leaves harder.
Armament
-Microwave soft-kill turret (sensor frying & drone suppression)
-Quad missile pack
-PDC turret for close-in defence
-Ventral-mounted gauss rifle
-Dual countermeasure dispensers
When necessary, she can also drop mass fast. Loot is stored in a jettisonable sledge nicknamed Breadcrumb — because if things get hot, they dump it, evade the fuzz, and circle back later.
Crew
Flow – Keeps the hull intact and the targets ventilated.
Prose – If it can spin, burn, or thread through debris at suicidal speeds, Prose can fly it.
Eugene - Leads the crew and fires the big stuff. Equal parts tactical and unbearable.
Flute Loop – Autonomous entry specialist. Possibly sentient. Definitely unstable.
Futterman – Carries the heavy things and enforces the heavy decisions.
Bobo – Explosives expert. Morale officer. Usually both at once

Especially in central China many of them were build inside the Loess earth in this area. A yaodong (Chinese: 窰洞) or "house cave" is a particular form of earth shelter dwelling common in the Loess Plateau in China's north. They are generally carved out of a hillside or excavated horizontally from a central "sunken courtyard".
The earth that surrounds the indoor space serves as an effective insulator keeping the inside of the structure warm in cold seasons and cool in hot seasons. Consequently, very little heating is required in winter, and in summer, it is as cool as an air-conditioned room.
The history of yaodongs goes back centuries, and they continue to be used. In 2006, an estimated 40 million people in northern China lived in yaodongs.
In the last decade, Yaodongs have been brought to the attention of scientists and researchers. These traditional dwellings have been regarded as an example of sustainable design.

The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) typically dominate other fox species. Arctic foxes generally escape competition from red foxes by living farther north, where food is too scarce to support the larger-bodied red species. Although the red species' northern limit is linked to the availability of food, the Arctic species' southern range is limited by the presence of the former. Red and Arctic foxes were both introduced to almost every island from the Aleutian Islands to the Alexander Archipelago during the 1830s–1930s by fur companies. The red foxes invariably displaced the Arctic foxes, with one male red fox having been reported to have killed off all resident Arctic foxes on a small island in 1866. Where they are sympatric, Arctic foxes may also escape competition by feeding on lemmings and flotsam, rather than voles, as favoured by red foxes. Both species will kill each other's kits, given the opportunity.
Red foxes are serious competitors of corsac foxes, as they hunt the same prey all year. The red species is also stronger, is better adapted to hunting in snow deeper than 10 cm (4 in) and is more effective in hunting and catching medium to large-sized rodents. Corsac foxes seem to only outcompete red foxes in semi-desert and steppe areas. In Israel, Blanford's foxes escape competition with red foxes by restricting themselves to rocky cliffs and actively avoiding the open plains inhabited by red foxes.:84–85 Red foxes dominate kit and swift foxes. Kit foxes usually avoid competition with their larger cousins by living in more arid environments, though red foxes have been increasing in ranges formerly occupied by kit foxes due to human-induced environmental changes. Red foxes will kill both species, and compete for food and den sites. Grey foxes are exceptional, as they dominate red foxes wherever their ranges meet. Historically, interactions between the two species were rare, as grey foxes favoured heavily wooded or semiarid habitats as opposed to the open and mesic ones preferred by red foxes. However, interactions have become more frequent due to deforestation allowing red foxes to colonise grey fox-inhabited areas.
Wolves may kill and eat red foxes in disputes over carcasses. In areas in North America where red fox and coyote populations are sympatric, fox ranges tend to be located outside coyote territories. The principal cause of this separation is believed to be active avoidance of coyotes by the foxes. Interactions between the two species vary in nature, ranging from active antagonism to indifference. The majority of aggressive encounters are initiated by coyotes, and there are few reports of red foxes acting aggressively toward coyotes except when attacked or when their kits were approached. Foxes and coyotes have sometimes been seen feeding together. In Israel, red foxes share their habitat with golden jackals. Where their ranges meet, the two canids compete due to near identical diets. Foxes ignore jackal scents or tracks in their territories, and avoid close physical proximity with jackals themselves. In areas where jackals become very abundant, the population of foxes decreases significantly, apparently because of competitive exclusion.
Red foxes dominate raccoon dogs, sometimes killing their kits or biting adults to death. Cases are known of foxes killing raccoon dogs entering their dens. Both species compete for mouse-like prey. This competition reaches a peak during early spring, when food is scarce. In Tartaria, red fox predation accounted for 11.1% of deaths among 54 raccoon dogs, and amounted to 14.3% of 186 raccoon dog deaths in north-western Russia.
Red foxes may kill small mustelids like weasels, stone martens, pine martens, stoats, kolonoks, polecats and young sables. Eurasian badgers may live alongside red foxes in isolated sections of large burrows. It is possible that the two species tolerate each other out of mutualism; foxes provide badgers with food scraps, while badgers maintain the shared burrow's cleanliness.:15 However, cases are known of badgers driving vixens from their dens and destroying their litters without eating them. Wolverines may kill red foxes, often while the latter are sleeping or near carrion. Foxes in turn may kill unattended young wolverines.
Red foxes may compete with striped hyenas on large carcasses. Red foxes may give way to hyenas on unopened carcasses, as the latter's stronger jaws can easily tear open flesh that is too tough for foxes. Foxes may harass hyenas, using their smaller size and greater speed to avoid the hyena's attacks. Sometimes, foxes seem to deliberately torment hyenas even when there is no food at stake. Some foxes may mistime their attacks, and are killed.:77–79 Fox remains are often found in hyena dens, and hyenas may steal foxes from traps.
In Eurasia, red foxes may be preyed upon by leopards, caracals and Eurasian lynxes. The lynxes chase red foxes into deep snow, where their longer legs and larger paws give them an advantage over foxes, especially when the depth of the snow exceeds one metre. In the Velikoluki district in Russia, red foxes are absent or are seen only occasionally where lynxes establish permanent territories. Researchers consider lynxes to represent considerably less danger to red foxes than wolves do. North American felid predators of red foxes include cougars, Canadian lynxes and bobcats. Occasionally, large raptors such as Eurasian eagle owls will prey on young foxes, while golden eagles have been known to kill adults.
The photo shows a bunch of white cherry blossoms hanging from a tree after a day of rain.
The flowers are damp and covered in water drops.
Some of the petals are fallen, but most of them are still intact.
.
Cherry blossoms are known for their delicate and ephemeral beauty.
They only bloom for a few weeks in spring, and their beauty is even more ephemeral after a day of rain.
Water droplets weigh down the petals and can cause them to fall prematurely.
.
However, cherry blossoms are also symbols of hope and renewal.
They bloom after winter, signaling the end of the cold season and the beginning of the hottest season of the year.
The water drops on cherry blossoms can be seen as a symbol of new life, which blossoms even after difficult times.
.
Cherry blossoms after a rainy day can symbolize:
Ephemeral beauty:
Cherry blossoms are beautiful, but their beauty lasts for a short time.
The water drops on the flowers can be seen as a note that beauty is fleeting.
.
Hope and renewal:
Cherry blossoms bloom after winter, signaling the end of the cold season and the beginning of the warmer season of the year.
The water drops on cherry blossoms can be seen as a symbol of new life, which blossoms even after difficult times.
.
Resilience:
Cherry blossoms are able to withstand rain and wind.
Water drops on cherry blossoms can be seen as a symbol of nature's resilience.
.
Purity and innocence:
Cherry blossoms are usually white, which is a color associated with purity and innocence.
Water drops on cherry blossoms can be seen as a symbol of the purity of nature.
.
Cherry blossoms after a rainy day are a beautiful and moving image.
They can symbolize many different things, depending on the perspective of the observer.
However, they all share a common theme: the beauty of nature and the ephemerality of life.
.
The photograph is composed of a limited range of colors, which creates an effect of serenity and stillness.
The image composition is simple but effective. The focus is on the cherry blossoms, and the background is blurred.
The image is well lit, which highlights the beauty of the flowers.

Sony's BIOS cripples the Sigma 500mm F4.5 into not accepting teleconverters, yet the same lens in L mount (Leica/Lumix) can accept teleconverters. Shame on Sony. So with the A1 I've been popping into crop mode for an effective 750mm......could do the same in post if you want. At least there's no additional glass in the pathway when in crop mode.
