For my entire adult life I have ignored Valley Forge Park. It bored me to tears as a seven-year-old, annoyed me no end with its trite Bicentennial activities, and kept me away with all the campy "reenactments". I finally went there yesterday, viewing it as a photographer. Oh, my. What a treat.

Rainworth Skoda Dukeries Rally (Ford Escort Mk2), Nottinghamshire, England
Hey everyone again last week was a bit surreal in terms of Flickr as I managed to get 4 or 5 of my images into Flickr Explore. Not quite sure how as they were old images, I think it was due to my latest image before this one getting into Explore and viewers checking out my older uploads which caused them to get into Explore. Explore does remain a mystery to me lol but thank you to you all last week, as always it does mean a lot to me that you all take the time to visit and comment on my photos, I thank you.
Anyway, this photo was from the Dukeries Rally up in Sherwood Forest in Nottingham. I met up with fellow Flickr and Twitterers James, Mark and Chris and what a really enjoyable day it was, top guys :-).
Be sure to check out their stunning photostreams :-)
This type of photography is not my normal type of photography but I am really getting into it. This is my second ever rally I have been too but I have learnt that it can be a quite challenging type of photography due to the fast nature of the sport but I persevered and got this.
This photo was me messing around with my panning technique and can assure you there is no Photoshop trickery in this one, this was completely handheld pan as the car sped around the corner, it was a little bit of trial and error but it was quite hard to do at shutter speeds as slow os 1/30s. Not quite as sharp as I would have liked it due to the f-stop I had to use but I like the sense of speed it creates. I originally cropped it at 16:9 but felt it had too much else going on around the car so cropped it square (1:1) and feel this works a lot better, what do you think?
As per usual any constructive criticism is always welcome :-)

Information
The squarer-styled Mark II version appeared in January 1975. The first production models had rolled off the production lines on 2 December 1974.
Unlike the first Escort (which was developed by Ford of Britain), the second generation was developed jointly between the UK and Ford of Germany. Codenamed "Brenda" during its development, it used the same mechanical componentss as the Mark I. The 950 cc engine was still offered in Italy where the smaller engine attracted tax advantages, but in the other larger European markets in Europe it was unavailable. The estate and van versions used the same panelwork as the Mark I, but with the Mark II front end and interior. The car used a revised underbody, which had in fact been introduced as a running change during the last six months of the life of the Mark I.
This car made a point, with just four body styles, of competing in many different market niches where rival manufacturers had either multiple model ranges or simply none at all. "L" and "GL" models (2-door, 4-door, estate) were in the mainstream private sector, the "Sport", "RSMexico", and "RS2000" in the performance market, the "Ghia" (2-door, 4-door) for an untapped small car luxury market, and "base / Popular" models for the bottom end. Panel-van versions catered to the commercial sector.
During the second half of the 1970s, the Escort continued to prove hugely popular with buyers in Britain and other parts of Europe.
A cosmetic update was given in 1978, with L models gaining the square headlights (previously exclusive to the GL and Ghia variants) and there was an upgrade in interior and exterior specification for some models. Underneath a wider front track was given.
In 1979 and 1980 three special edition Escorts were launched the Linnet, Harrier and Goldcrest.
Production, after an incredibly popular model run, ended in Britain in August 1980, other countries following soon after.
This view of the old forge at Newbridge House farm near Swords in Co. Dublin. Newbridge House belonged to the Cobbe family who have given it to Fingal Co. Council. The house, park and farm are open to the public and are a wonderful asset much enjoyed by the public. My grandchildren love the playground and the farm and I love their enjoyment of the place! I was looking for a poem about a forge and I found this. I didn't want to post it as I don't want to offend the poet but here is the link for those who may be interested! hellopoetry.com/poem/424831/the-old-forge/
I've produced a fair number of basic knives from concrete reinforcing bar (rebar) and rail spikes that I'm selling at a local shop, Bison and Bear. My talented wife designed and printed up the info/care cards for me. These rebar knives aren't quenched, since that would make the steel brittle; I just temper them before final polishing and sharpening. Rail spike knives (see below) are quenched and tempered first. I'm making a number of other things, including bottle openers, toasting forks, and trowels. But knives are certainly the most fun!

March 1986, unknown photographer, Adam Comer collection.
Blacksmith at the Royal Cornwall Show in June 2006.
The metal for the new cannon part had to be heated often.
This panel over the fireplace depicts Vulcan’s forge. It is a later work than the other paintings in the room. Note the faux columns and sky on the wall besides the fireplace.
The frieze high on the wall are mythological scenes attributed to Baldassare Peruzzi’s school.
Workshops at the mission had the dual purpose of making the mission self-sufficient and to teach the Indians occupations in the Spanish 18th century economy. We see here replicas of implements of that period.
At Misión Espíritu Santo, Goliad. Texas. Full name: Mission Nuestra Señora de la Bahía del Espíritu Santo de Zúñiga. The partially restored mission is at Goliad State Park, which I visited on March 16, 2021.
Early in the 18th century, the Spanish crown decided securing its claim to Texas required establishing settlements there. Unable to recruit willing settlers in Spain, the crown turned to missions as an alternative. A mission was a fortified village run by a few priests and supported by a few soldiers. The crown supplied seed money and the soldiers. An Indian group would be persuaded to abandon their nomadic ways, embrace the Roman Catholic faith and move into the mission. The priests instructed them in the faith and in farming, ranching and European skills. The soldiers instructed them in the use of European weapons and tactics. In this win-win arrangement, the crown got its settlement, the Indians got a more dependable food supply and the priests got souls for God. After a generation or two, the Indians no longer needed the mission and would leave it to settle in the vicinity. The mission church sometimes remained in service, to minister to the local community.
In Forges is een depot van de tramlijn Chimay - Cul-des-Sarts - Couvin nog vrijwel compleet aanwezig. Het stationsgebouw staat er ook nog; het is verstopt achter de bomen links (zie www.flickr.com/photos/ahrend01/52136597479 ).
De metersporige tramlijn Chimay - Cul-des-Sarts is in bedrijf geweest van 1904 tot 1960. Op ongeveer een derde van het tramtracé zijn wandelpaden aangelegd, onder meer tussen de Rue Vertillon en Rue Robert Willame ten zuiden van Forges en van Bourlers naar Forges.
