Believing the weather forecast on the internet more than on the TV I decided to head for Hatfield Moors again, but much earlier.
Sadly 30 miles into my journey I realised that I had messed up again - the camera was still at home! I decided to turn back would mean arriving too late after what I had learnt last week. So I kept going and arrived around 0805.
For the first time I had taken my 'new' Iphone with me so was able to at least get record shots - the first time I had tried the camera on the phone.
I did see at least 8 adders, mainly early on. Many were more in the open than on my visit the previous week, and also not that active. The results were generally very poor. It didn't help that I had little idea as to how to use the camera. This was my best effort from over 100. I also took some videos and they were all awful.
These are the roots of a Mesquite tree. Most trees grow in a more or less orderly fashion, spreading out in all directions. Mesquites, for some reason, sometimes decide to grow in one direction, then another direction, and another, sometimes reversing course entirely. Eventually, the Mesquite becomes a Mess Keet.
The Nikkor Z 24-70mm f/4 lens arrived today so, since I had to run an errand, I stopped by the nearby park to try it out.
Perhaps the most interesting part of the unloading operation ... after the cars were unloaded, they were simply released on a dip and hill roller coaster set of tracks which would reverse and switch the cars back to shore.
74/365: Ratcliffe-on-Soar, Nottinghamshire. Taken on my way back home from Gloucestershire where I'd been with my mother. I had to get back to Nottingham to break the news to my children that their Grandad had died. It just doesn't feel real. I cannot believe my Dad has gone.
Esta hormiga alada está estos días tras las lluvias y la salida del sol por todos lados en Aracena, estos especímenes están fotografiados en mi azotea, gracias a Manuel Baena de la Sociedad Andaluza de Entomología estoy en que es del Género Messor por su tamaño y cabeza roja creo que puede ser Messor barbarus aunque no tengo certeza. Miles de futuras reinas sin alas recorren calles y campos en busca de una ubicación para un nuevo hormiguero.
This winged ant is these days after the rains and the sunrise everywhere in Aracena, these specimens are photographed on my roof, thanks to Manuel Baena of the Andalusian Entomology Society I am in the genus Messor for its size and head red I think it can be Messor barbarus although I'm not sure. Thousands of future queens without wings run through streets and fields in search of a location for a new anthill.

Fat Mum Slim's Photo a Day Challenge Day 112 - April 22 - Mess
This is what I found on my daughter's desk this morning. The leftovers of I think milk with chocolate cereals, grapes, ice coffee and a tea bag. The bowl was used as a garbage bin more than something to eat from.
In a way it is a beautiful mess, almost like a still life. But that isn't what I'm gonna tell my daughter ;-)

Aboard Star Catcher. The Trangia spirit stove is much more stable and therefore much safer on a boat than the Optimus petrol stove I used to use. And it's quiet and needs less tending.
Eton mess is a traditional English dessert consisting of a mixture of strawberries or other berries, meringue, and whipped cream.
i hesitate to even post this photo, because it seems so sad to me -- this is my front yard, not in its usual charming state, because the septic tank failed on sunday -- now there's trenches everywhere and bits of pipe and lots of mud.
and what's saddest is, because i'm moving out in a few days, and the property will then be for sale to avoid foreclosure, the owner's not going to fix it -- he's just going to leave it for the next owner to deal with. i just feel so badly for the place itself -- it seems to be a very undignified end to what had been a long relationship (the landlord has owned the property for over 20 years, and lived here himself for a long time)
thankfully i'll be meeting with my new landlords this morning & hopefully signing the lease, & can start moving over the weekend -- i just don't want to be here any more...
I’m a really messy eater. I remember swearing to myself to never eat spaghetti on a date because I’d be sure to get it all over myself. I can’t eat chocolate without dropping bits in my lap (to be discovered after they’ve melted onto my clothes). Beefy has banned me from eating in his new car. (I got ice cream all over the floor mat of his old car.)
Busy prints are the best bet for someone as sloppy as myself. This sweater hides a multitude of food stains.

Die Adox Mess-Golf war 1952 die preisgünstigste Entfernungsmesser-Kamera für das 6x6-Format, der Preis betrug 118 DM. Sie ist ausgerüstet mit beledertem Gehäuse, verchromter Entfernungsmesser-Brücke, Gehäuseauslöser, Auslösesperre gegen Doppelbelichtungen, Geräteschuh zum Aufstecken von Belichtungsmesser oder Blitzgeräten und konischer Objektiv-Einstellfassung. Das eingebaute Cassar 4,5/7,5 cm ist vergütet und mit einem Pronto-Verschluss mit synchronisiertem Blitzkontakt und Selbstauslöser versehen.
Oder wie der damalige Katalog von Photo Hildenbrand (Stuttgart) schreibt:
Eine technische vollendete Weiterentwicklung der ADOX-GOLF mit allen Vorzügen dieser Kamera für das 6X6-Format. Wie bei den anderen ADOX-GOLF-Modellen vereinigt die ADOX-MESS-GOLF hohe Präzision und einfachste Handhabung. Der eingebaute Entfernungsmesser gestattet die volle Ausnutzung der Lichtstärke der hochwertigen Optik, ohne daß der Amateur sich eine teure Spezialkamera kaufen muß. Das helle Sucherbild des Entfernungsmessers gestattet selbst in dunklen Räumen eine genaue Einstellung.

I came back to discover that the hotel room was a mess, clothes, wigs, shoes and makeup strewn everywhere.
