The Curious Hobby of Collecting Things (02)
The Times Weekly Issue 1920 - 21
A vast number of years ago I used to buy and sell second-hand books, mainly because I collected and it reduced the cost of collecting. However, since those far off days every once in a while I come across things I cannot resist buying. This next item entitled ‘The Times Weekly Edition with Illustrated covers starts on 12th November 1920 and finishes 28th January 1921. This only represents 11 issues but it is filled with a whole variety of subjects including News, Sports, Fashions and General Advertising. Each issue contains approx. 24 pages.
This is the first of many postings ……

Well... no; no Sunbird to illustrate how Chasmanthian pollination works. But I'll try to explain. At the top you can see a developing Chasmanthe bicolor flower. Lower left is the flower at its full length. At the left the lower perianthe; a Sunbird will insert its marvellously curved beak into it to access the rich pouches of nectar contained within. Meanwhile our Bird's head will have brushed the stamens (see right side of the photo, with a close-up inset right) and it will carry the gathered pollen onwards to brush it against the style (see its three 'prongs' in the right inset) of another Nectar-rich flower. Ah! the wonders of Nature!
Our Plant hails from South Africa, hence its vernacular name Suurkanolpypie. Today it can be found throughout the Tropics and Temperate Zones.
For 121 Pictures in 2021 #47 "Illustrate a book title" these are serrano and Thai chiles, both red and green to go on the cover of "The Devil's Dinner, a gastronomic and cultural history of chili peppers" by Stuart Walton. I should note that his use of "chili peppers is incorrect, anything referring to the plant or the pod itself should be spelled chile. The term chili should be only used to refer to a stew making use of chiles. This was borne out by extensive research on the internet, where, as we all know, everything is correct.
With 16,000 tons in 120 cars on the drawbar these three EMD's are screamin' their guts out in notch 8 with a cloud of sand dust following their progress as they assault the hill up to the diamond at Plymouth, OH. 8/10/2025
Our ”We’re Here!” theme today is Photographic terms illustrated. I enjoy shooting into the sun to see what kind of crazy lens flare and starburst effects I can get.
Es hat (erwartungsgemäss) nicht lange gedauert, bis Pedro des Sekretärs "neue" Kamera für sich entdeckte. Nun hat er sich noch einen Bildband und Reiseführer der Bretagne geangelt und schmiedet in seinem (und des Sekretärs) Lieblingssessel Reisepläne...

As expected, it didn't take long for Pedro to discover Secretary's "new" camera. Now he has also picked up an illustrated book and travel guide to Brittany and is making travel plans in his (and Secretary's) favorite armchair...
You have to have observed Hoodies to get this poem. I could post a bunch of images to illustrate but I don't like repeating species on my photostream. The key is in the line "a shape-shifting ghost."

I asked if I could take a photo while he read and he readily agreed. I didn't stare at the specific tattoos until I put it into my computer. Wow! Each body section tells a different story. Look at large view. On weekdays he blends with all the other commuters from San Francisco to a Palo Alto tech job.
This guy could hardly keep still from laughing! At last he did for about three seconds! Just time to take this shot!
Frogs!...quite a few 'guilty pleasures'' going on here! My obsession with Mother Nature and all her wonders....means the ironing gets left, oops! A friend has an obsession with the colour green and anything frog related...plus her husbands obsession is with technology. He used his 3D printer to print these colourful little frogs! But hey, you only live once so why feel guilty! :))

What Are Little Boys Made of?
Frogs and snails,
And puppy-dogs' tails;
That's what little boys are made of.
What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice,
And all that's nice;
That's what little girls are made of.
新嘗祭とは、その年の収穫を感謝し来年の豊作を願う日本の行事です。「新」新穀（初穂）「誉」はご馳走を意味します。古来から続いており、毎年11月23日に皇居を始め、全国の神社において祭祀が行われます。
たぶん巫女イラストが溢れると思うので、禰冝にしてみました。
The Niiname Ritual is a Japanese event to give thanks for the year's harvest and wish for a good harvest next year. The word "新" means "new grain" and "誉" means "good cheer". It has been celebrated since ancient times and is held every year on the 23rd of November at the Imperial Palace and other shrines around the country.
There are probably an abundance of illustrations of Miko (shrine maidens), so I drew Nege (shrine male like Miko).

I like this image because it seems to illustrate the dizzying way that recalling a memory seems to happen. We form patterns in our mind and then the solid details appear within.
A long walk with family in Glenfeshie resulted in no realistic entries for the "Suddenly" theme. The less said about my attempt to photograph a golden eagle the better, let's just say I'm not a wildlife photographer. The weather was overcast and the light was very flat, so it seemed there was no drama to be had in the scenery, which was peaceful.
Then I started to play about with the camera, trying out some ICM shots before I had a go at a zoom burst (which I hadn't had any success with before).
This is image of Achleum farmstead starts at around 270mm and closes in to about 240mm or so. In PP, I've straightened the image (wonky horizon = pet hate) and increased the clarity and contrast a little.
Waterfilm is a series filmed since 2012 based on the idea of filming with a freehand camera for a period of exactly one minute. This series illustrates the meditative qualities of water in an urban environment. It is my belief that the close observation of this essential element has the ability to influence our perceptions. Each film is intended to be a short meditation – take your time to feel it, but don’t swim away too far...

Same alley as before from the other side of Center Street. Again it was the sun that caught my eye here and resulted in the click of the shutter.

This extraordinary image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope of the galaxy cluster Abell 2813 (also known as ACO 2813) has an almost delicate beauty, which also illustrates the remarkable physics at work within it. The image spectacularly demonstrates the concept of gravitational lensing.
Among the tiny dots, spirals, and ovals that are the galaxies belonging to the cluster, there are several distinct crescent shapes. These curved arcs of light aren’t curved galaxies. They are strong examples of a phenomenon known as gravitational lensing.
Gravitational lensing occurs when an object’s mass causes light to bend. The curved crescents and “S” shapes are light from galaxies that lie beyond Abell 2813. The galaxy cluster has so much mass that it acts as a gravitational lens, bending light from more distant galaxies around it. These distortions can appear as many different shapes, such as long lines or arcs.
This visual evidence, that mass causes light to bend, is famously used as proof of Einstein’s theory of general relativity.

Wassergestalt Kokerei Hansa
A wooden model on a 1:1 scale illustrates how water was cooled on a large scale and efficiently in the past at the Hansa coking plant. The impressive “trickling system” can now be activated by visitors.

One of my favourite books as a child was The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. My mother had a very old copy from her own childhood and I was enthralled by the Victorian era story of the orphaned Mary who came from India where her parents had died to live with a cold uncle in his bleak Yorkshire manse.
Mary gradually uncovers the story of the house’s ‘Secret Garden’. This image is about the discovery of the key to the garden:
Mary tentatively asks (gardener) Ben Weatherstaff if anything is still living in the secret garden, and he replies that only the robin knows, as no one else has been inside in ten years. Mary wanders off, following the wall of the garden without a door. The robin follows her and leads her to a mound of freshly turned earth, which, when Mary examines it closely, contains a tarnished key that has long been buried. It may, Mary thinks, be the key to the secret garden.
