I miss living here. That big house across the street was the only one in view, it and the one we lived in were surrounded by farm land. The street they're running towards has a speed limit of 50mph.

Found some old negatives and scanned them. Our driveway was really long.

Found the local working the WestPlains Grains elevator the day after our first official snow. The seasonably warm temps have mostly turned the snow cover into mush and muck, contributing to the gloom of the day. Unscenic views with potholes and mudpuddles define railroading in North Omaha.

This is Jill. She is over 30 years old. No joke!

Sometimes I feel like telling those birds, I don't think you should drink from there! But

what can you do??lol

Because looking is part of the fun.

Let me introduce you to Tic (as in "tic-toc"), Rusty and Wrangler. Tic has been used in rodeos and is around 7/8 yrs. old. Rusty will be 2 in May, 2009. And Wrangler pretty much rules the pack and I believe he is 6 or 7 yrs. old. These are my neighbor's horses. If you saw Jill's pic in "horse play" then you saw Rusty's mama!

The 'Stratford mudpuddle' from various angles. These views look toward the Trans-Canada Highway from MacKinnon Drive. This is one of those cases where a DRONE camera would have been helpful!

Black and white version of this photo. Which do you like better?

A 90,000 gallon stormwater detention "tank" being installed on a jobsite. It is comprised of 200 l.f. x 9' i.d. aluminized CMP with a restricted outlet orifice that lets the post-development runoff fill the tank during even the heaviest storms and then "trickle" out over a period of time so that the post-development runoff of the site matches the pre-development (wooded, undeveloped) runoff rate. Great idea, rather expensive to implement. The mudpuddle to lower right is a silt collection basin that exists during the development process to trap the waterborne sediment from the disturbed areas and allow the solids time to settle out instead of running headlong down into the Chesapeake Bay (150 miles away).

June 1, 2018 - We took a drive through "Native Iceland" which was a stand of birch trees. Here you can see Gudrun opening the gate so our bus can continue on our journey to "black castles" lava formations at Dimmuborgir.

This one got washed off in a mudpuddle for a better look.

There was about an inch of rain overnight, and they were climbing out an hour after sunrise.

Someone I knew in high school sent me this camera and several lenses and filters when he found out I was into shooting film because he doesn't use it anymore. One of the fitlers is a circular polarizer.

 

This picture is taken without the filter. This one is with it. Note the difference in the mud puddle reflection.

The Jeremiah was a bullfrog song kept coming to mind after I shot this image frogs are for whatever reason difficult to shoot but this one stayed right there far a minute and presto I got it.

This picture is taken with the filter. Note the reduction in reflection on the mud puddle.

 

This one is without it.

Funny how mud puddles can look magical in pictures.

 

From another photo walk with Orbitgal today. This was at an abandoned store we stopped at.

The Common Jezebel (Delias eucharis) is a medium sized pierid butterfly found in many areas of South and Southeast Asia, especially in the non-arid regions of India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Myanmar and Thailand.

 

The Jezebel often flies high up in the canopy and usually comes lower down only to feed on nectar in flowers. Due to this habit apparently, it has evolved a dull upperside and a brilliant underside so that birds below it recognise it immediately while in flight and at rest.

 

It has bright coloration to indicate the fact that it is unpalatable due to toxins accumulated by the larvae from the host-plants. The host plants are various species of small shrubs which are plant parasites growing on branches of trees such as common 'mistletoe' (Loranthus). The caterpillars drop and hang by a thread if the tree is shaken.

 

Like other unpalatable butterflies the Common Jezebel is mimicked by Prioneris sita, the Painted Sawtooth. The Common Jezebel can be distinguished by the shape of the orange red spots on the hind wing. In the Painted Sawtooth these spots are very squarish whereas in the Common Jezebel they are more arrow head shaped. The Painted Sawtooth also flies faster and will also mudpuddle.
