North Korea carried out their fifth nuclear test the day before yesterday. That evening I went to a park and found thousands of people, young and old gathering there. I'm certain that 99.9% of them were fighting hard for Pokémon. War, war, everywhere.

A day when wild winds blew clouds scampering across the wet sands. We have wild winds forecast again today, so hope there'll be some clouds to chase. I have a painting to do this morning for my granddaughter so may have to wait to chase the clouds . Machineries of Joy is by British Sea Power

This excavator had a primary purpose as an earth mover, yet in this snow covered image - it looks like it could have been contracted out to dig through the freshly fallen snow.

Looks can be deceiving.

Excavators are heavy construction equipment consisting of a boom, dipper, bucket and cab on a rotating platform known as the "house". The house sits atop an undercarriage with tracks or wheels. They are a natural progression from the steam shovels and often mistakenly called power shovels. All movement and functions of a hydraulic excavator are accomplished through the use of hydraulic fluid, with hydraulic cylinders and hydraulic motors. Due to the linear actuation of hydraulic cylinders, their mode of operation is fundamentally different from cable-operated excavators which use winches and steel ropes to accomplish the movements.

It was a great gig last night watching British Sea Power at Clwb Ifor Bach in Cardiff. I love watching live music with lots of energy, like watching clouds approach and build up. Like machineries of Joy, one of the tracks they played. So much fun.

A good sunny day today so a long walk down the coast followed by a great gig in Cardiff watching British Sea Power, what could be better. Machineries of Joy is perfect, the wild coast and a wild night, the song is by British Sea Power.

先日作ったブラックプリセットに少しかすみというかスモークをプラスした。

昨年12月にアップした時より空の雪が前よりわかりやすくなったので今度はもう少し多くの人に見てもらえるかな?

There dwelt a miller, hale and bold,

Beside the river Dee;

He worked and sang from morn till night -

No lark more blithe than he;

And this the burden of his song

Forever used to be:

“I envy nobody – no, not I -

And nobody envies me!”

 

“Thou’rt wrong, my friend,” said good King Hal,

“As wrong as wrong can be;

For could my heart be light as thine,

I’d gladly change with thee.

And tell me now, what makes thee sing,

With voice so loud and free,

While I am sad, though I am king,

Beside the river Dee?””

The miller smiled and doffed his cap,

“I earn my bread,” quoth he;

“I love my wife, I love my friend,

I love my children three;

I owe no penny I can not pay,

I thank the river Dee,

That turns the mill that grinds the corn

That feeds my babes and me.”

 

“Good friend,” said Hall, and sighed the while,

“Farewell, and happy be;

But say no more, if thou’dst be true,

That no one envies thee;

Thy mealy cap is worth my crown,

Thy mill my kingdom’s fee;

Such men as thou are England’s boast,

O miller of the Dee!

I think this is the remains of slate works machinery above Fairbourne, looking towards Barmouth.
