Antique Farm Equipment

Dotted along the coastal shores of France are countless wooden fishing huts which have been built on stilts. Their main implement is a square-shaped pulley-operated net (or “filet carré”) which has given the humble shacks their name: “carrelets”.
The recurring characteristics of carrelets are that they are sometimes elaborate and often colourful structures which can be reached via invariably precarious walkways. They may appear somewhat flimsy but each carrelet has to meet stringent norms and construction
The old corn cribs were designed so the equipment can pull through and unload, then the equipment stored over winter for protection. Over the years the corn cribs evolved to outpost garages and junk collections in the fileds.
The Lone Cypress Tree, located along the scenic 17-Mile Drive in Monterey and Carmel, is one of the most iconic landmarks on the California coast. This solitary cypress has withstood the test of time, weathering countless storms and braving the salty sea air for over 250 years.
The tree is believed to have sprouted sometime in the early 1770s, making it one of the oldest living things in the area. Its unique location on a rocky outcropping, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, has made it a popular subject for photographs, paintings, and even logos for the Pebble Beach Company.
The Lone Cypress Tree has become a symbol of resilience and perseverance, standing strong despite the challenges of its harsh environment. It has even survived attempts to remove it from its precarious perch. In the 1940s, the tree was propped up with cables to prevent it from falling into the ocean, and in the 1980s, a replacement tree was planted nearby in case the original finally succumbed to the elements.
But despite its fame and popularity, the Lone Cypress Tree is still a living thing that requires care and attention. In recent years, the tree has faced a number of health challenges, including the effects of climate change and invasive pests. The Pebble Beach Company has taken steps to protect and preserve the tree, including limiting public access to the area around it and implementing conservation measures.
Boar Mill Cottage has it all; comfort, history, intrigue and a story to tell. As a former bakery, the three-bedroom stone cottage is teeming with quirky original features from the old bread oven in the dining room to remnants of the bakers’ implements still in the cottage. It sits in the shadows of the towering Corfe Castle in its eponymous village.

Because of the safety measures implemented during Covid-19, there is a reduced collection of downtown Springfield, Mo regulars. Some, such as these couple of skate boarders, utilize the ghost town as a surrogate for their otherwise closed usual hang-outs.
I appreciate Dominic and his friend for inviting me to shoot them during their trick boarding session.
Happy 2022! I wish you good health in the new year, good luck (not excluding, of course, photographic luck), success in a variety of things, the implementation of your plans and the joy of anticipating a New Year's miracle!
С наступающим 2022 годом! Я желаю вам в новом году крепкого здоровья, удачи (не исключая, конечно же, фотографическую), успехов во всех неоложных делах, осуществления если не всего, то многого из того, что было когда-то вами задумано, радости предвкушения новогоднего чуда и счастья каждодневного бытия!
Frohes 2022! Ich wünsche Euch viel Gesundheit im neuen Jahr, viel Glück (natürlich nicht ohne fotografisches Glück), viel Erfolg bei verschiedenen Unternehmungen und die Vorfreude auf ein Neujahrswunder!
Bonne 2022 ! Je vous souhaite une bonne santé pour la nouvelle année, bonne chance (sans exclure, bien sûr, la chance photographique), du succès dans les choses les plus simples et une bonne mise en œuvre de vos projets !

And now for something completely different. I was struck by the light and shadow on these implements in a mug on the kitchen counter.
Hope you are enjoying a beautiful week. Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

Symbolic metal mirror drops were created to be placed in the central square of Kharkov on the day of the city, August 23. But due to the insane shelling of Kharkov, which Russian barbarians continued to carry out, it was impossible to install an art object there. And the authors came up with a proposal to decorate the public space of Kyiv with giant drops.
As conceived by the authors, the drops gravitate both to the ground and to each other, symbolizing the unity of the two cities - the capital of Ukraine, Kyiv, and Kharkov, which today courageously resists the Russian aggressor.
The project was implemented by a workshop from Kharkov METALSTYLE, they called it "Unity"
Символические металлические зеркальные капли были созданы для размещения на центральной площади Харькова ко дню города (23 августа). Но из-за безумных обстрелов Харькова, которые продолжали совершать российские варвары, установить там арт-объект было невозможно. И авторы обратились с предложением украсить гигантскими каплями общественное пространство Киева.
По замыслу авторов, капли тяготеют как к земле, так и друг к другу, символизируя единство двух городов - столицы Украины Киева и Харькова, который сегодня мужественно противостоит российскому агрессору"
Проект был воплощен мастерской из Харькова METALSTYLE, они назвали его "Единение"

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
The Allis-Chalmers Company of West Allis, Wisconsin, just outside Milwaukee. This great company was one of the pioneers of the industrial age in America and around the globe. Allis-Chalmers built the engines that ran our factories: in 1900, they were perhaps the largest maker of steam engines in the world. Over time, they expanded into almost every type of engine and machine, using the slogan “Ours the Four Powers: Steam, Gas, Water, Electricity.” The company made everything from giant turbines for power plants to the more familiar orange farm tractors. Allis-Chalmers was a continuous inventor and innovator in these fields.
Although Friedensreich Hundertwasser first achieved notoriety for his boldly-coloured paintings, he is more widely known for his individual architectural designs. These designs use irregular forms, and incorporate natural features of the landscape. In architectural projects he implemented window right and tree tenants, uneven floors, woods on the roof, and spontaneous vegetation.
This is a small sample of old farm implements preserved in perfect condition!

Camera: Beacon Two-Twenty-Five, a low-end 1950s plastic camera with a 70mm doublet lens. The focus is fixed and ranges from about 5 1/2 feet to infinity. The shutter, at around 1/50 second, is best for daylight shots, but even small movements (such as the horse's ear) can result in blur. Overall, the camera is quite fun to shoot and I was very pleased at the quality of image produced by the doublet lens. The camera is called the "Two-Twenty-Five" because it produces 2.25-inch square images.
A fascinating history of the company which produced the Beacon can be found at Mike Eckman's website: mikeeckman.com/2023/07/beacon-two-twenty-five-1950/

A seguito dell'implementazione del sistema di sicurezza ETCS lungo l'asse alpino del San Gottardo le Br185 che DB adoperava abitualmente su questo itinerario dovettero essere distolte dall'abituale servizio per permettere la progressiva installazione dei sistemi necessari. SBB Cargo e DB Schenker siglarono pertanto un accordo commerciale per lo "scambio" di una parte delle proprie dotazioni.
Mentre quindi una decina di Br185 vennero assegnate ai servizi "domestici" delle Ferrovie Federali elvetiche, prevalentemente assegnate al deposito di Zurich Limathal, SBB sostituì fino allo scorso cambio d'orario, le TRAXX tedesche con le proprie locomotive su tutti i convogli che dalla Germania si dirigevano in Ticino ed Italia.
Nella foto la Re4/4.11183 sta proprio trainando sul San Gottardo uno dei convogli forse più indelebilmente associati alle Br185 tedesche, il "Winnerzug" Wuppertal-Piacenza. (30/10/15)
In the last months the DBS Br185.1s used along the Gotthard route had been withdrawed due to the ETCS implementation.
While some loks were working with SBB in domestic freight activities around Zurih Limathal, some Re10/10 were employed to haul also the DBS international trains from Basel to Chiasso.
Beyond the many mixed freight from Mannheim, also the "Winnerzug" Wuppertal-Piacenza had been entrusted to the Swiss loks.
Here the Re4/4.11183 and a Re6/6 are running just before the Biaschina Loops heading the southbound train. (30/10/15)
In spite of reduced traffic in the Southern Tier, Conrail implemented a comprehensive track improvement program in 1992. Double stack train 253 is seen on October 8 negotiating bridge work at East Corning, as the morning fog begins to lift over the railroad and parallel Route 17.
From the book, "Elkhart County One Room Schools" by Dean K. Garber, published in 1991:
"PLEASANT HILL - DEWEY School District #5, was originally known as Dewey School. It received this name because Charles B. Dewey had settled in the early 1850s and soon started a school on his property. He was the first teacher at this site. In the 1860s a wood frame was built on the southwest corner of present day 37 and 40. In 1888 a Tee shaped brick building was erected on this same site, facing to the north. The front entry was recessed in several feet from the front wall, so no porch was needed. This entry housed the cloak rooms and wood storage area. This school closed in 1914 and the pupils were hacked (transported by horse drawn carriages) to the Millersburg school. In 1902 the attendance was 41 students and this kept declining to just 16 students in 1913. This building still stands and has been used for farm storage for many years."
The building still has its original slate roof and an enlarged entry for farm implements on the east side.
On a sunny morning, CSXT SD70MAC #4705 flies at 60MPH under the QD-103 raised NYC signals in Lake City, Pennsylvania. Within the past few years, CSXT, as well as a handful of other railroads, have implemented "precison railroading" which bassically means that the railroad is bastardizing itself. With that being said, CSX has been replacing the power that was half decent to crappy GEVO's and conjoing trains to make them unbelievably long and heavy. Along with all of those other changes, it doesn't help that most if not all of the signals in the US on Class 1 railroads are/getting replaced.
This neat little device (farm implement) turns your tractor into a small combine, or corn picker.

A Plaque at the bottom of the steps reads:
Looking south, one can see Spadina Road, laid out by the Baldwin family as a grand thoroughfare from Queen Street to Davenport Road. William Baldwin (1775-1844), physician, lawyer, politician and architect built the first "Spadina" in 1818 and the second in 1835 after the earlier home was destroyed by fire. After William's death the estate passed to his son Robert Baldwin (1804-1858) one time co-premier of the united Canadas. Both men were leading political figures whose drive for peaceful change brought about major constitutional and administrative reform in government including the implementation of "responsible government" initiated by William Baldwin.
The Baldwin Steps were opened officially in September, 1988.
This doodlebug started its life as a 1933 Chevrolet coupe, but a farm in northern Indiana transformed into the farm implement you see here . It is tentatively going to be restored.
Nonostante il mutuo scambio di dotazioni fra DB ed SBB Cargo si sia formalmente concluso agli inizi del nuovo anno con l'implementazione del sistema di sicurezza ETCS sulle prime Br185 delle ferrovie tedesche, almeno fino a fine gennaio è stato ancora possibile avvistare alcune locomotive delle SBB incaricate di trainare verso l'Italia convogli normalmente in carico al gruppo DB Schenker.
Ecco quindi uno dei "classici" del San Gottardo, il Winnerzug da Wuppertal per Piacenza iniziare l'ascesa verso Goeschenen al traino di un Re10/10 in luogo delle classiche TRAXX tedesche. (22/1/16)
---- some short stories, collected while walking down the street ... in search of fleeting moments ...(they are photographic shots taken one-two months ago, scenes of daily life obviously captured before the current restrictions, implemented to stem the spread of the now worldwide infection caused by the covid-19) ....

---- alcune storie minime, raccolte camminando per la strada ... alla ricerca di attimi fugaci-s/fuggenti ... (sono scatti fotografici realizzati uno-due mesi addietro, scene di vita quotidiana catturate ovviamente prima delle attuali restrizioni, attuate per arginare il dilagare della infezione oramai mondiale, causata dal covid-19) ....
