Jack le corsaire a pris le commandement
Des marins, et vogue la galère
Il tient ses hommes comme il tient le vent
Tout l'monde a peur de Jack le corsaire
Quinze marins sur le bahut du mort
Hop là ho ! une bouteille de rhum
A boire et l'diable avait réglé leur sort
Hop là ho ! une bouteille de rhum
C'est Bill, le second du corsaire,
Le capitaine Smith en colère
Qu'est revenu du royaume des morts
Pour hanter la cache au trésor.
"Essaie un peu de me contrecarrer
Et tu iras où tant d'autres sont allés
Quelqu's uns aux vergues et quelqu's uns par d'sus bord
Tout l'monde pour nourrir les poissons d'abord".
Nous finirons par danser la gigue
La corde au cou, au quai des pendus
Toi, John Forest, et toi, John Merigue
Si près du gibet qu'j'en ai l'cou tordu.
I went to the 2015 archives for this week's Fence Friday. It's a mobile puppet theatre that was parked in a plaza near Chicago's North Michigan Avenue. Unfortunately, there was no puppet show going on when I was there.

The limestone meets the sea at Jack Scout on Morecambe Bay. The sky was looking good for a sunset as I walked through the woods near Silverdale, so I headed here to the cliffs, only to witness another "cloud hoover" of the sky!
So looking for a bit of foreground interest I found this area of limestone with a small clump of "Sea Thrift". The rocks provide a bit of a lead into the Kent Estuary and you can see the Central Lake District fells in the far distance as the sun sets over Southern Cumbria.
Jack Frost visited the other night. I photographed this same Nine Bark just about a week and a half ago. I was impressed to see the leaves still on it but now they have some extra ornamentation.

This little guy actually came so close that I had to take a few steps back because it was within the minimum focus distance of the lens I was using.
It's one of the most common birds around these parts, but I couldn't resist taking this shot regardless.
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

The Union Jack can be flown by any individual or organisation in Great Britain on any day of their choice. It can be flown upside down as a distress signal.

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!
