Commentary.
Just minutes out of Mallaig’s cosy, colourful, charming but busy harbour, the slopes of Loch Nevis dominate the southern shore.
As moisture from the mighty Atlantic rolls in, the clouds cling to the awesome slopes and the sky darkens.
This fjord is deep, ominous and archetypal of this stretch of the West Coast.
It is surrounded by peaks from 3,000 to 3,500 feet and, at times, the slopes overlap and the peaks loom menacingly above.
But, photogenically, on blue-sky days, this fjord is unparallelled, hereabouts, for its beauty and grandeur.
It culminates, fifteen miles inland in the majestic pyramidal landmark of Sgurr na Ciche.
Today, as the Isle of Skye came into view, the clouds dispersed and the mountain vistas unfolded for fifty miles, north and south.
A magical and stupendous ferry-crossing!!!
Love emulating Ansel Adams' style when photographing leaves. Such a crazy amount of intricate geometry.

[*1] Fringing reef is one of the three main types of coral reef and grow near the coastline around islands and continents. They are often separated from the shore by narrow, reef pool.
[*2] Located on Northwest Coast of Haterumajima
[*3] Patch reefs are small, isolated reefs that grow up from the open bottom of the island platform. They vary greatly in size, and they rarely reach the surface of the water.
[*4] components that make up a fringing reef
- - -
Reef Flat：A zone that is located closest to the shoreline and is flat, shallow, broadest
This zone suffers the damage from sediments by land, therefore the diversity of life is lower in comparison with other zone. The coral density is low, and leathery corals are often found there.
- - -
Reef Crest：A zone that is located between Reef Flat and Reef Front and in the most highest part
This zone has the best balance between sunlight and waves, therefore vibrant corals are found there and density is high too.
- - -
Reef Front：A zone that is located closest to the open ocean and is found at the outer edge
This zone is often quite steep and descends either to a relatively shallow sand bottom or to depths too great to allow the growth of coral. Wave action disperses pollutants and carries nutrients to this zone, therefore this is where the greatest diversity of corals exist.

Old Delhi (Hindi: पुरानी दिल्ली; Punjabi: ਪੁਰਾਣੀ ਦਿੱਲੀ; Urdu: پُرانی دِلّی; Purānī Dillī), is a walled city of Delhi, India, was founded as Shahjahanabad (Persian: شاه جهان آباد) by Mughal Emperor Shahjahan in 1639. It remained the capital of the Mughals until the end of the Mughal dynasty. It was once filled with mansions of nobles and members of the royal court, along with elegant mosques and gardens. Today, despite having become extremely crowded and dilapidated, it still serves as the symbolic heart of metropolitan Delhi.
HISTORY
The site of Shahjahanabad is north of earlier settlements of Delhi. Its southern part overlaps some of the area that was settled by the Tughlaqs in the 14th century when it was the seat of Delhi Sultanate. The sultanates ruled from Delhi between 1206 and 1526, when the last was replaced by the Mughal dynasty. The five dynasties were the Mamluk dynasty (1206–90), the Khalji dynasty (1290–1320), the Tughlaq dynasty (1320–1414), the Sayyid dynasty (1414–51), and the Lodi dynasty (1451–1526).
Delhi remained an important place for the Mughals, who built palaces and forts. Most importantly, it was Shah Jahan, who had the walled city built from 1638 to 1649, containing the Lal Qila and the Chandni Chowk. Daryaganj had the original cantonment of Delhi, after 1803, where a native regiment of Delhi garrison was stationed, which was later shifted to Ridge area. East of Daryaganj was Raj ghat Gate of the walled city, opening at Raj Ghat on Yamuna River. First wholesale market of Old Delhi opened as the hardware market in Chawri Bazaar in 1840, the next wholesale market was that of dry fruits, spices and herbs at Khari Baoli, opening in 1850. The Phool Mandi (Flower Market) of Daryaganj was established in 1869, and even today, despite serving a small geographical area, it is of great importance due to dense population.
After the fall of the Mughal Empire post 1857 revolt, the British Raj shifted the capital of India to a less volatile city, Calcutta, where it remained until 1911. After the announcement of the change, the British developed Lutyens' Delhi (in modern New Delhi) just south-west of Shahjahanabad. At this point, the older city started being called Old Delhi, as New Delhi became the seat of national government. It was formally inaugurated as such in 1931. Until the 1930s, few people ventured outside the walled city; thus in the following years, as the walled city got more and more congested, other areas around it were developed.
WALLS AND GATES
It is approximately shaped like a quarter cìrcle, with the Red Fort as the focal point. The old city was surrounded by a wall enclosing about 6.1 km2, with 14 gates:
- Nigambodh Gate: northeast, leading to historic Nigambodh Ghat on the Yamuna River
- Kashmiri Gate: north
- Mori Gate: north
- Kabuli gate: west
- Lahori gate: west close to the Sadar Railway station, Railway Colony, including the tomb of Syed Abdul Rehman Jilani Dehlvi.
- Ajmeri Gate: southeast, leading to Ghaziuddin Khan's Madrassa and Connaught Place, a focal point in New Delhi.
- Turkman Gate: southeast, close to some pre-Shahjahan remains which got enclosed within the walls, including the tomb of Hazrat Shah Turkman Bayabani.
- Delhi Gate: south leading to Feroz Shah Kotla and what was then older habitation of Delhi.
The surrounding walls, 3.7 m wide and 7.9 m tall, originally of mud, were replaced by red stone in 1657. In the Mughal period, the gates were kept locked at night. The walls have now largely disappeared, but most of the gates are still present. The township of old Delhi is still identifiable in a satellite image because of the density of houses.
The famous Khooni Darwaza, south of Delhi Gate and just outside the walled city, was originally constructed by Sher Shah Suri.
Streets and neighbourhoods
The main street, now termed Chandni Chowk, runs from the Red Fort to Fatehpuri Masjid. Originally a canal ran through the middle of the street.
North of the street, there is the mansion of Begum Samru, now called Bhagirath Palace. South is the street is Dariba Kalan, a dense residential area, beyond which is Jama Masjid. Daryaganj is a section that used to border the river at Rajghat and Zeenat-ul-Masajid.
The Urdu language emerged from the Urdu Bazaar section of Old Delhi. The Din Dunia magazine and various other Urdu publications are the reason of this language staying alive.
MAIN ARTERIES
- Netaji Subhash Marg/Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg leading to India Gate (north and south)
- Chandni Chowk/Khari Bawli Road (east and west)
Old Delhi is approximately bounded by these modern roads:
- Gokhle Marg (south)
- Mahatma Gandhi Marg road (east)
- Shraddhananda Rd (west)
- Jawaharlal Nehru Marg (south)
In 1876, Carr Stephen described the city as follows:
Of the two streets described by François Bernier, the longer extended from the Lahore Gate of the city to the Lahore Gate of the citadel, and the other from the Delhi Gate of the city to the Lahore Gate of the fort. Both these streets were divided into several sections, each of which was known by a different name.
The section between the Lahore Gate of the fort and the entrance of the street called the Dariba, known as the Khuni Darwazah, was called the Urdu or the Military Bazaar; owing, very probably, to the circumstances of a portion of the local garrison having been once quartered about the place. Between the Khuni Darwazah and the present Kotwali, or the Head Police Station of the city, the street has the name of Phul ka Mandi or the flower market. The houses in front of the Kotwali were built at a short distance from the line of the rest of the houses in the street, so as to form a square.
Between the Kotwali and the gate known as the Taraiah, was the Jauhari or the Jewellers' Bazaar; between the Taraiah and the neighbourhood known as Asharfi ka Katra, was, par excellence, the Chandni Chauk. There was a tank in the centre of the Chauk the site of which is now occupied by the Municipal Clock Tower, and beyond this to the Fatehpuri Masjid was the Fatehpuri Bazaar. The houses round Chandni Chauk were of the same height, and were ornamented with arched doors and painted verandahs. To the north and south of the square there were two gate-ways, the former leading to the Sarai of Jehan Ara Begum, and the latter to one of the most thickly populated quarters of the city. Round the tank the ground was literally covered with vegetable, fruit, and sweetmeat stalls. In the course of time the whole of this long street came to be known as the Chandni Chauk.
This grand street was laid out by Jahanara Begam, daughter of Shah Jahan. From the Lahore Gate of the fort to the end of the Chandni Chauk the street was about 40 yards wide and 1,520 yards long. Through the centre of this street ran the canal of 'Ali Mardan, shaded on both sides by trees. On the eastern end of the Chandni Chauk stands the Lahore Gate of the Fort, and on the opposite end the handsome mosque of Fatehpuri Begam).
The clock tower no longer exists, although the locationn is still called Ghantaghar. The Sarai of Jehan Ara Begum has been replaced by the city hall. The kotwali is now adjacent to Gurdwara Sis Ganj Sahib.

OLD DELHI CUISINE
Old Delhi is well known for its cuisine. There area in and around Jama Masjid and Lal Kuan are predominantly Muslim. Hence the cuisine here is more meat dominant Mughlai cuisine. The area in and around Chandni Chowk is predominantly Jain and Baniya communities. Hence the food is strictly vegetarian and in a lot of cases made without onion and garlic. The famous Gali Paranthe Wali and Ghantewala halwai are also situated here.
Old Delhi is also famous for its street food. Chandni Chowk and Chawri Bazaar areas have many street joints that sell spicy chaat (tangy and spicy snacks).

At the top, you can see more of the frame overlapping problem I've been having. I think the top overlaps with the bottom of this shot, for those of you keeping score at home.
This was growing off the side of a Enormous Oak Tree about 5' from the ground. This was a stack of 4 about 1' wide by 2' high by 1' out from the Tree Trunk.
Another one of Natures Mysteries.
This was one of 3 different growths on this tree.
In standing trees, the presence of conks makes it more difficult to determine tree quality. The fungi producing the conks of the fungi's fruiting bodies grow by attacking and breaking down the tissues of another plant-in this case, the wood elements of the tree. A tree with conks contains masses of rotten wood or is hollow where the rotten wood has disintegrated. The extent of rotton wood or hollow can be estimated by sounding the tree with an ax, using a standard increment borer, or using a Shigometer.

somehow, these 2 pictures overlapped each other?? really hv no idea how this happened.. did I shake it too hard while developing it?? but anyway, it does look cool in some ways.. :D
according to Flickr's interestingness criteria. What's really interesting to me is how small the overlap seems to be between this and the design collection mosaic, which shows some of my own choices from my work.

I cannot see the frame numbers through the red window of the Adox with this film (Shanghai GP3 - the backing paper is black with pale blue numbers), so had no idea whether I was winding on enough ... well, obviously not.
Then I set up up a copying stand and photographed the negatives on a homemade lightbox. I haven't adjusted the odd WB as I like the sepia effect.
There was a decision to be made about how to capture the frames, and I decided to start as if from the "correct" beginning; it could be done differently, which would produce a different effect. Perhaps I'll try that one rainy day.
I think a series of happy accidents has created something rather strange and beautiful ...
