Thanks to all who take the time to Comment/fav etc...Always appreciated.
"Hi, I'm Jack, just got back from my quest to find the witch. I searched the entire universe and finally spotted her far, far away. So I had to use my supersonic powers to send her a message, telling her she really needs to come back now, because things are going wrong. Strange forces are at work, and only she can blow them away.
Phew, I’m pretty exhausted now, so I’m going to take a little nap, and then I’ll be ready to join the Halloween party.
They say I'm complicated, but that just the folding process of me ;-))""
Happy Shocktober,

A splash of light during this dreary, wet, mild and windy winter weather we are currently enduring.
This is a sunset on the Lancashire coast where limestone meets the ocean. The rocks appear to look up in awe at the rainbow bringing a bit of colour to the gloom (as I was !). Lets hope this weather pattern breaks soon.
pl zoom in for snow crystals !
This morning, everything was covered under a white blanket which Jack Frost had forgotten in my garden !

The crevalle jack (Caranx hippos), also known as the common jack, black-tailed trevally, couvalli jack, black cavalli, jack crevale or yellow cavalli, is a common species of large marine fish classified within the jack family, Carangidae. The crevalle jack is distributed across the tropical and temperate waters of the Atlantic Ocean, ranging from Nova Scotia, Canada to Uruguay in the west Atlantic and Portugal to Angola in the east Atlantic, including the Mediterranean Sea. It is distinguishable from similar species by its deep body, fin colouration and a host of more detailed anatomical features, including fin ray and lateral line scale counts. It is one of the largest fish in the genus Caranx, growing to a maximum known length of 124 cm and a weight of 32 kg, although is rare at lengths greater than 60 cm. The crevalle jack inhabits both inshore and offshore waters to depths of around 350 m, predominantly over reefs, bays, lagoons and occasionally estuaries. Young fish dispersed north by currents in the eastern Atlantic are known to migrate back to more tropical waters before the onset of winter; however, if the fish fail to migrate, mass mortalities occur as the temperature falls below the species' tolerance limits. The crevalle jack is a powerful, predatory fish, with extensive studies showing the species consumes a variety of small fish, with invertebrates such as prawns, shrimps, crabs, molluscs and cephalopods also of minor importance. 24642

Jack, raised and fed by hand after being abandoned behind our house by his feral mother. He is a joy to have in our family.

Jack was checking out the goats when I arrived at the farm today, but he soon came over to see me. He's very sweet and doesn't need treats to be a good boy. He also doesn't like my Sizzlers.
Jacks River below the Upper Falls roaring down towards the brink. In terms of scale, ... the perspective here is deceiving... ~what appears to be a stick in the lower left-hand corner is actually a tree! I would estimate the distance from where I am standing to the other side to be about 40 to 50 yards. The scale here is larger-than-life! So far, my experience here had been completely inspirational, with the added plus of not encountering any bears, wild boars or snakes, -or stinging insects such as Yellow Jackets, Wasps or Hornets ...Jacks River Falls, Cohutta Wilderness, Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest, Georgia

Whiskey Jack is another name given to the Grey Jay. The name comes from the First Nations mythological figure called 'Wisakedjak". Now most of us know him as the Grey Jay. They are not shy birds and there was one who visited our campsite a few times up near Lake Superior. He was ever so quiet as he swooped in to sit on a branch and watch us. This one is being tracked and we found him in Algonquin Park last month. There were several Grey Jays looking for hand outs.
This string of jetty jacks, positioned along the brush-covered east bank of the Mojave riverbed beside the Rocksprings trestle, helps to control erosion of the embankment where the rails leave the trestle and head across land; a matching set of jacks occupies the same position on the western shore. Each individual jack consists of three lengths of steel angle joined at their midpoints, producing a structure like a six-pronged jack from the child's game; the lengths of angle are held in place by wire, laced like a spider's web about the jack's center. The jacks are then attached along a cable anchored at each end, the whole length—in this case, half a dozen or so jacks—protecting the shoreline by catching sediment and debris, as the river, flush with water when the winter rains are heavy, courses beneath the trestle.
Camera: Univex Iris (1938, with Vitar 50mm f/7.9 lens). The Iris is an Art-Deco styled, cast-metal camera with adjustable aperture, fixed shutter speed, and fixed focus. Its native film is Universal No. 00, a proprietary film manufactured for the camera's maker, Universal Camera Corp., by Gevaert in Belgium. 00 film featured six 28 x 38 images per roll, and at 32mm wide was just slightly narrower than 35mm film. Universal filed for bankruptcy in 1952 and closed its doors in 1964, so there has been no new 00 film for the Iris and other early Universal cameras for several decades.
Film: I have read of people cutting down 120 film to make 00 film, but because 32mm is an odd width, one would have to develop it in open trays and make a special film holder for scanning. I decided instead to use the next smaller film size, 16mm or 110 film. I made 00 backing paper by cutting down 120 film backing paper. 00 film's image length is nearly the same as that of 828 film (00's image is 38mm long, 828's is 40mm), so I used my 828 backing paper template (www.pheugo.com/cameras/index.php?page=spool828), cutting it slightly narrower for the 00 spool (32mm rather than 828's 35mm), and reducing the length from 828 film's eight image length to 00's six. When cutting down 120 film for 127 film cameras, there is a strip of film about 15mm wide left over; I used one of these strips to roll up in the backing paper. I used my accustomed 100 ISO Arista.edu Ultra film, developed in Arista Liquid Developer for 8:15 minutes @ 65 degrees, and scanned with an Epson V600 scanner. This was my first time developing and scanning 110 film—thanks to my Flickr friend Nyms for her insight on the Yankee Clipper developing tank!

Jack visited the farm today, and wasn't interested in my treats at first, but soon enjoying them. He's a natural model, and a very good boy.
