ODC-the odd one / man out...
Reminds me of that Sesame St. Song..."One Of These Things Is Not Like The Others!"
Stu uses all these tools often with the exception of the big blue Broad Fork at the back, it has two handles and is used for aerating the soil. It is the only blue tool and is made of metal, not wood like the others.
All quiet on the hedgehog front, one young under weight off to Hedgehog Hamlet to be over wintered and our other garden hedgehog who was over 800g is safely tucked up. I've got the trail camera out just to check, but it's the robin that tucks into the meal worms in the morning. Photo Kevin Keatley, UK. Camera D800, Lens Nikon 16-35mm@32mm, F22, 1/250 Sec., ISO 320, Camera and flash on manual. Set the camera up on a C14 Double Bean bag and the PIR trigger on a C14.1 Small double bean bag next to the camera. Our Bean bags are ideal for low level photography - They are quick and easy to position and to set up your camera, flashes and triggers.
Our garden hedgehog. We put some meal worms out every night for him, he usually calls by between 9pm and 3am and the Robin finishes off the left over’s in the morning. Normally record him on the trail camera but tonight I've set up my camera with a PIR trigger. Photo Kevin Keatley, UK.

My Inheritance! Nobody could have given me ANYTHING I value more than the old ( in need of cleaning and oiling!) One Pring Prong!!! NO idea why we always called it that but it is ONE prong of a five prong cultivator given to me by my Mum when she gave up her house and garden. I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful this old old tool is in the garden! Macro Monday Inheritance- HMM
Shot for Smile on Saturday, theme "rusty beauty".
Shot in the early morning sun of what is going to be a very beautiful Saturday. This piece of garden tool belonged to my wife's grandfather, but after so many years, covered in rust, still fit for the job.
Happy SoS everybody!

This is the 50th year we have lived in our home, and during that half century, the temperature has reached 100℉ only three times, and Father's Day, when our lawn sprinkler system suddenly required immediate fixing, was one of those days. So, I started digging (and sweating!) and hacking my way through roots, and this muddy pile of tools pretty much represents how I was feeling when I finished my Father's Day project.
I processed this image for Sliders Sunday using the newly released Topaz Studio.
Cross-Processed Kodak Portra 40-0 in Cinestill Monobath B&W Developer. Original negative was very dense. Lots of grain with the monobath. I also developed other cross-processed negatives with HC-110 for much better results.

It is that time of year....
...the end of summer....
...geese flying south...
and the garden needs tending......
....as winter is coming......
These puffy hydrangeas are cut down each fall as they usually bloom better on new growth. Always sad to see them cut down.
I have started the day by day garden preparations for winter.
Much to do, so I start early, otherwise I don't get it all done.
I lost one of my two dibbers about 18 months - 2 years ago, but a few days ago I was emptying the number 3 compost bin and here was my well decayed dibber. I think it was a fork originally.

Hello people do you remember me Gudrun Ure from TV series Super Gran? I decided to retired because I am tired of fighting against evil. Now I am working in the field every day and producing organic food for me and my friends. With love, Super Gran ;o).

Probably the head gardeners office... the clocking on machine and the number of rollers suggets a large gaden staff. A glimpse into a gardeners past at Calke Abbey. NT
Some people enjoy walking the stately rooms, drinking on the granduer... I prefer the back story, snap shots of reality, a sense of atmosphere.

With nighttime temperatures dipping down into the mid-thirties - it is definitely time to put the garden tools away until next spring. I have had several decades of use from this old rake, and it is indestructible. Today's modern tools can't begin to compare in quality. I wish our country had the same pride in craftmanship today - as we had less than a century ago.
Nothing but manual labor comes with them.
Growing up the sight of a wheelbarrow meant one thing to me... manual labor. Moving dirt, rock, plants, rubbish you name it I hated it. One of those things your father always tells you it builds character. Notice they only say those types of phrases when it something you desperately want to get out of doing?
Of course as I get older I don’t mind helping my parents out in the yard nearly as much. Sure the work hasn’t exactly gotten any more exciting, certainly not when it involves a wheelbarrow. Yet I have grown to cherish the moments more. Looking at it as less of a manual labor situation and more as time with the family. Funny how as you get older your perspective on things change. Someday it will probably come full circle and I’ll be the one telling my kids shoveling and moving dirt builds character.
