The line from Ravensthorpe to Leeds was totally closed on 28th & 29th January and 5th to 13th February 2023, due to major construction work at Morley Station, involving creating new Platforms and track relaying. Here is a close-up shot showing the ongoing construction activity at Morley Station on Sunday 29th January, 2023, featuring the machinery involved in ensuring the newly laid ballast is level and compacted.
Some sandstone in the Santa Cruz Mountains have variable levels of calcium carbonate segmentation resulting is certain parts being softer than others. The heavy rainfalls in our mountains contain carbon dioxide from the air which seeps into the sandstone and dissolves the softer areas of calcium carbonate holding the sand grains in place. During our dry season (we do have a short one,) the calcium carbonate is drawn to the rock's surface forming a deposit that resists erosion. This leaves the uncemented sand below to crumble away. The resulting caves and honeycomb formations are called tafoni.
There are three areas in the Santa Cruz Mountains, all off of Skyline Boulevard (Highway 35,) that are particularly known for their tafoni. The most well known is at Castle Rock State Park. The sandstone here is hard enough that climbing is allowed and on 80-foot high sandstone outcropping is particularly popular.
Across Skyline Boulevard from Castle Rock in Sanborn County Park their is Summit Rock. With an elevation of 3076 feet you can take in the tafoni along with a nice panorama view of the Silicon Valley. On the down side, there is some graffiti on Summit Rock probable. The county parks just aren't as well policed as state parks and the hike is short enough that slobs can find their way to deface this natural beauty.
The third area of noted tafoni is located in the El Corte de Madera Creek Open Space Preserve between Highway 92 and Woodside Road at Skegg's Point Caltrans Rest Stop. The rock is only 2.5 mile hike from Highway 35. However, the bad guys haven't discovered this area yet so please only tell your responsible friends. There are 33 miles of multi-use trains within this 2,821-acre preserve. The preserve was established to protect the headwaters of the San Gregorio Creek watershed that is critical habitat for steelhead trout and coho salmon. Therefore, certain trails have been closed to the public to enable restoration. Failure of visitors to respect these closures could easily result in the entire preserve being closed to the public. The sandstone at El Corte de Madera Creek is softer and more fragile than at places such as Castle Rock and climbing is not allowed here. The up side of the rock being more fragile is that the tafoni is more spectacular. So, we highly recommend this preserve to our responsible flickr photographer friends. The light at the sandstone is very filtered and I really needed to carry a sturdier tripod (I normally just have a Trekpod) and a strong external flash for flash fill. Next time I'm bringing these items along.

Seminar audience hears low levels of physical activity in Ireland are contributing to serious long term health problems
Delegates attending a public health seminar today learned that low levels of physical activity are contributing to long term health problems. The comments were made by Professor James Sallis, Director of Active Living Research and Professor at San Diego State University and Ms Teresa Lavin, Institute of Public Health in Ireland (IPH), at a seminar jointly hosted by IPH and the UKCRC Centre of Excellence for Public Health (Northern Ireland).
The seminar looked at why levels of physical activity are low in Ireland. It focused on how the built environment influences opportunities for being active.
Ms Lavin said: “Enhancing opportunities for physical activity is essential. Across Ireland levels of physical activity are low which has many implications for public health. While there are many reasons for low levels of physical activity one important factor is how the built environment is designed and maintained – this in turn facilitates how we move around our environment.
“We need to create more roads and pathways suited to cycling and walking as well as quality green spaces to encourage people to take physical exercise. We need to locate shops and services – such as schools – nearer to housing schemes and ensure road systems within these estates are engineered to reduce car dependency.”
Ms Lavin continued: “A recent IPH study forecasts a dramatic 40% increase in the number of people living with hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke and diabetes in the Republic of Ireland by 2020. It is essential we reverse this trend and one way is by creating environments which are conducive to physical activity such as walking and cycling.
“To enable this to happen, there is a real need for intersectoral action – involving public health specialists, local authorities, developers and construction professionals such as architects, engineers and planners – to enhance opportunities for physical activity in the built environment across the population and especially for vulnerable groups.
“For example, in Ireland, half as many girls aged 15-17 as boys of the same age are likely to exercise four or more times weekly. Unfortunately, this trend continues through to adulthood and we need to develop specific strategies to tackle this issue.”
Professor Sallis has pioneered an extensive research programme into the environmental and policy influences on physical activity, nutrition and obesity in the United States and said: “Physical activity is a key risk factor for chronic disease; other high risk factors include poverty, unemployment, the environment, smoking, alcohol consumption and diet. The reality is that these factors are distributed unevenly across society. Ensuring that all neighbourhoods have safe and attractive places for physical activity and have shops that sell affordable healthy foods is one way to reduce these inequalities.”
Dr Mark Tully, UKCRC Centre of Excellence for Public Health (NI) who is leading a large research project on the benefits of green space to health and wellbeing said: “The visit of Prof Sallis to Ireland is very timely. We have been inspired by his research to continue our efforts to develop research into how we can help increase levels of physical activity through designing more attractive environments that support the messages our health professionals are promoting.”

This is the natural history collection at the Hunterian Museum, which is on the campus of the University of Glasgow. I love the ornate details of this Victorian space. Notice the iron pillars on the upper level.
To get this slight fisheye effect I created this from a three-image vertical stitch.
The taxi driver gave me an odd look when I asked him to drop me off on this street corner. I even enjoyed a bowl of Pho with the locals.
Leveling Leg Mod after Reuben Krabbe - his first version - he's now got two versions! (In his version 2, the normal setting geometry is compromised and the resistance to the strut attachment slipping is not 'absolute' - still considering that one - have got some ideas.)
I find my MSE 'Light (Wt) Heavy (Duty) triple riser' aluminium stand (387490) (3.54 m) pretty well perfect for a full baby pin stand (i.e. strong enough to handle a Grip Head with all that that implies). And it's light weight. Except, especially outside, it would be nice to have a leveling leg option.
Traditional leveling leg solutions extend & lower one leg, meaning that single leg becomes the downhill leg and ends up taking more weight than its piers. Also the footprint diameter is modestly reduced.
Reuben Krabbe's Mod, OTOH, raises the adjusted leg which typically results in it bearing slightly less than a normal 1/3rd share. Also, it doesn't add weight. When deployed, the footprint diameter increases slightly!
My experience suggests that a single extra hole, c 10 to 12 cm higher than the original offers great leveling range and flexibility on this and other full sized horizontal strut stands (footprint 43 in diameter). Varying the leg spread also varies the leveling action substantially. Outside, I'd usually lose the wheels or lock them radially out to maximize the footprint. This approach does not work well on stairs - but there's a better way of mounting a lightstand half way up a flight of stairs.
My choice of new pin was a marine grade 6 X 50 mm drop nose pin. (The UK's 'Seasure' is the best brand.) Lighter stands would use a 5 mm version. The drop nose is itself spring loaded and my mod adds a short length of rubber tubing to act as a gentle compression spring, removing any chance that this mod would 'self release'. It's more secure, IMO, than the original simple ny-loc nuts. Matthews added two shaped spacing pieces which could be easy to lose. Accordingly these are now tethered to prevent loss while engaging the leveling option. If your stand has washers, I suggest losing those and substituting a 10 cm strip of thin stiff plastic with a suitable hole at both ends.
Ensure that the stand is truly vertical - critical if using a boom.
I now have two full sized stands with this mod/pin - I remain, 6 months & counting, very pleased so far . . .
I've also tried just using a car leveling ramp under a normal stand's lowest leg - that can work well too, but I prefer Reuben's idea.
