@ Salvage Station ~ November 20 - December 20
In a vast winter wasteland cobbling things together may be a necessity to survive, though such endeavors can also produce something surprisingly beautiful.
These salvaged glass lanterns are sold in 5 colors. Because they use projected light to cast out beautiful colored lights through the glass, the land impact is 3 per lantern. They can be lit or snuffed out on click.
The Crimmus edition color will be available at Halftime!

Camera update - I know some of you said about getting an upgrade but I have only had it for a year so it has gone off to the camera hospital to see if it can be repaired. If it can't I shall have to wait a while for a replacement as with this particular camera there is a constant waiting list.
This stone lantern is on Seven Fortune Gods Hill in Kenrokuen Garden, Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. Begun in the late 17th century, Kenrokuen was the private outer garden of the adjacent castle.

Out for the evening with Kim and Paul shooting Joy. A great night out.
I lit the lantern from two sides before capping the lens and switching to another tripod where I had Joy stood, changed focus and focal length, uncapped the lens and Kim span a tube behind joy. Good times
This close up of the lantern room of the 1888 stone lighthouse at Low Head shows its effectiveness. The lenses that concentrate the light have a massive range. The tower stands 19 metres (62 ft) tall, but the focal height is actually 43 metres (141 ft) above sea level. The light itself has a range of 43 kilometres (23 nautical miles).
"The original apparatus was supplied in 1833 by W. Hart of Launceston. He supplied six dozen Argand lamps with tin reflectors at three shillings and sixpence each. In 1835, the apparatus was upgraded by installation of a revolving shutter which was rotated by a weight-driven clockwork mechanism. In 1838, the original whale oil Argand lamps and the tin mirrors were replaced by a revolving catadioptric system, manufactured by Wilkins and Company of London. The lens floated and rotated in a mercury bath, which served as a bearing. The cost of these upgrades was £2000. In 1851, the luminous intensity of the lantern was further increased.
When the new tower was constructed in 1888, the revolving catadioptric apparatus was retained, and a cast iron and copper housing for the lantern (manufactured by Chance Brothers of Smethwick) was added.
In 1898, an auxiliary light was added to the tower. The assembly, manufactured by Chance Brothers, consisted of a two-wick lamp with a red lens that produced a red warning light to illuminate the hazardous Hebe Reef. The assembly is positioned such that the light shines from a window just above the midsection of the tower, about 6 metres (20 ft) below the main light.
In 1916, the lighting and lens assembly was extensively upgraded. A new revolving Fresnel lens (3rd order 375 mm f.r. triple flashing catadioptric) was installed. The whale oil lantern was also replaced with a 55 mm incandescent gas mantle lantern, and fuelled by vaporized kerosene. The lens and lantern were both manufactured by Chance Brothers; the total cost of these improvements was £1,348 13s ld.
On 12 April 1937, Hydroelectric power (generated at the nearby Duck Reach Power Station) was finally supplied to Low Head Lighthouse. The clockwork rotating mechanism was replaced by an electric motor, and the kerosene lantern was replaced by a 110 volt 500 watt electric lamp. The lantern apparatus currently uses a 240 volt lamp."

A sky lantern (also known as a Kongming lantern) is a small hot-air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom where a small fire is suspended. People write their wishes on the sides of the lantern and then launch it. It is a very popular activity in Pingxi District, New Taipei City, Taiwan. This is a shot of one of the lanterns being launched.

Wajima lacquer style (Wajima-nuri)
The most famous lacquerware in Japan is “Wajima-nuri”. Most Japanese people know the word, “Wajima-nuri”, even those who are not familiar with lacquerware.
Wajima-nuri is lacquerware made in Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture. Ishikawa Prefecture is famous as a production region of lacquerware. Yamanaka lacquerware is also well known in this region in addition to Wajima-nuri.
Lacquerware has been produced in Wajima, Ishikawa, since olden days. Jūzō Shrine in this city is known to have the oldest example of the Wajima-nuri style that exists today. This shrine has a door that was coated with vermillion lacquer in the year 1397.
The soil in this land is something that supports the Wajima-nuri style lacquerware. In Wajima City, there is a mountain called “Jinokoyama” where soil that is perfect for this style of lacquerware is obtained.
In the lacquerware making, the process called shitaji (undercoats) is necessary. Performing shitaji creates a hard and durable lacquerware. Lacquer is applied onto the shitaji undercoats, so one can consider shitaji as “the base of lacquer layers”.
A mixture of powder called “jinoko” and lacquer is used for the shitaji undercoats. “The soil from Jinokoyama” mentioned earlier is used for this jinoko powder. The soil from Jinokoyama in Wajima City is called “Wajima jinoko”.
Wajima jinoko is known as high-quality soil for the shitaji undercoats. Due to this type of soil, it became possible to produce durable lacquerware, which is difficult to create in other locations.
Wajima-nuri has been noted for its durability with the use of this special soil, but it is also known for its elegance.
Sometimes, decorations are added to lacquerware after being coated with lacquer. In the case of Wajima-nuri, “chinkin”, which rubs gold into the grooves, and “makie”, which draws a picture with powdered gold or silver, are well known. In addition to the fact that it is strong, the beauty of decorations is also a signature of Wajima-nuri style lacquerware.
It is said that the Wajima-nuri technique was established during the Edo Period (From 1603 to 1868). Some techniques such as chinkin and makie were consolidated during this period.- Traditional Culture of Japan

Releasing sky lanterns has become one of the traditions in the annual Lantern Festival. The weather is really cold and rainy today. I do not want to go to this crowded event again. Fortunately, I went at the first of day this event when it was clear and warm.
