A Baliuag chest of drawers

 

Estimate: PHP 200,000 - 220,000

 

Last quarter, 19th century

Bulacan

Red narra, bone / kamagong / lanite inlays, silver / kamagong mounts

111.5 x 99 x 54.5 cm (43 1/2 x 39 x 21 1/2 in)

 

When popularity of the use of storage chests reached the Philippines by the 1800s from Europe, chest of drawers and comoda with two drawers and two doors emerged, the former being more unusual and more expensive. The case top of this example’s central panel is mitered in front and butt joined at the back. The top edge and the drawer frame are painstakingly outlined with kamagong, then inlaid with dense bone lozenges, clearly demarcating the larger topmost drawer and the three smaller drawers below. The drawer faces are inlaid with triple borders using fine kamagong and lanite strips; both ends of the case have conforming inlaid triple boarders. Keyhole escutcheons are in silver while the drawer pulls are in kamagong which have been turned and accentuated at the center also with silver. The turned inverted vase feet descend from flower-inlaid knees, connected by segmented spandrels inlaid with flower sprays. Some inlays are missing. A very beautiful and useful piece of furniture that can be moved around the house.

During my lunch hour today I wandered down to the Water of Leith for some dipper shots. Got a few okay ones but mostly throwaway. On my way back to the office my attention was drawn to loud chirping in the trees at Belford Road and to my delight around 6 Long-tailed tits were hopping about. Out of the corner of my eye I saw two land on a nearby branch and one of them began hanging upside down. It took a second to realise that it was dangling helplessly because its wing had somehow got stuck. Now that I've scrutinised the shots, it would appear that the wing is literally glued to the end of the branch where some sap is.

 

The poor thing dangled helplessly as the rain started and the wind picked up. Other long-tails landed beside it and looked down in what appeared to be a show of concern. They certainly knew something was wrong. There was lots of anxious tweeting. Eventually the bird managed to pull itself up enough to start pulling away at its wing feather. To no avail at first, and I really thought it was going to end up dying there.

 

But the story has a happy ending as the wee thing eventually managed to rip its wing free, with minimal damage it would appear. I hope so anyway!

 

Does anyone know if this is a common occurence. I'm aware that tree sap is extremely sticky and could act like a sort of glue to a delicate feather but surely this kind of thing doesn't happen too often.

Well I'm recovering at home from my wrist operation, it's really sore so I'm not moving far from the house (had a bone graft from my hip so mobility is non existant).

 

I noticed there were lots of IR pics popping up on flickr and I've wanted to try for AGES so as the weather was ideal and I had nowt better to do, thought I'd give it a whirl. The garden ain't the most exciting subject but it has tons of green and it meant I didn't have to travel. Perfect.

 

My R72 filter has a 58mm diameter so I borrowed my dad's kit lens and took a few snaps. There was a horrible hot spot which I did my best to remove in PP and I wanted the effect of IR film so I converted to mono, added a little grain and a slight vignette in Photoshop.

I was standing under this flag (one of very many) at the Rockefeller Center enjoying the afternoon sun and the cool breeze and all I could think of was how much of a melting pot NY actually is. Every direction I look, I see at least 3 to 4 different nationalities represented...what a seriously awesome thing when people who are different in culture, tongue and even belief can sit under the same sun and share such happy times together.

 

As for the picture, I just thought how amazing the colors looked when struck by the bright sun and how it waved boldly in the strong wind. I didn't know which country it belonged to but I think that's my point....should it really matter? We're all the same..we're all human.

 

For the curious I looked it up and it happens to be the flag of Mauritius, a small island nation off the coast of the African continent.

DOUALA, Cameroon, Mar 14 2013 (IPS) - The fruit farmers in Njombe, a small town in the coastal Littoral Region of Cameroon, learned a life lesson about “making lemonade out of lemons” – or rather “dried fruit out of fruit” when their land was taken from them by the government and leased to an international farming company.

This is as far as we got before the Dog was in my face with the security guard :-( if we had not paused for outside shots we would have been in the main buildings

 

As your aware i do like Urbex , its a nice break away from my landscapes and its exciting , This place however was just such a big temptation , Cwn coke works , when i say this site is "Dangerous " i kid you not , We got as far as the weigh bridge just as i crossed the yard i looked right to see a security guard and his German Shepherd who then ran towards me , no fear this dog new the command as the guard new i was no real threat he was concerned for our safety and his , he said he had a busy day with tresspassers , even the guards were not allowed into this area " Just look around you" his words !! But what a place sadly he declined to show us around :-) But a truely great guy who asked us to leave and then he disappeared as we did !!! I have no plans to return the one office were were in had Ammonia test machine , test tubes & Acid its an Urbex dream but a death trap !!! its alos one amazing place.

 

Me posting this may tempt others i would suggest no one tries to get in here unless with a skilled person with the correct PPE .

  

Part of the Urbex buzz is your doing something you should not !!! It was fun getting caught , the dog well i showed no fear thats the worst thing anyone can do a beautuful dog for sure , so glad Molly was not with me , oh and said sorry to the guard .Who did not call the police but as we were leaving could hear police sirens :-)

 

You have been warned i guess .

THE NAME OF CHRISTMAS

 

Under the name of Christmas

I feel something

I do not know exactly how I have to say.

It makes me think of a new land

where peace and love do not stop blooming ...

 

And no matter if the star was born

and points to the path

three kings from the East, crossing the sky ...

And it does not matter,

know if many shepherds were

carrying cheese and honey in the stable ...

And it does not matter,

see hanging rich brightness

here and there,

shown in joy ...

 

I feel that there is a big thing at the bottom of everything.

To define the word can not find any!

It must be a force to achieve

that there is on earth

any country without love

no home without bread!

The sweet name of Christmas gives us clues ...

If the power exists,

we must find!

EL NOMBRE DE NAVIDAD

 

Bajo el nombre de Navidad

siento algo

que yo no sé muy bien cómo tengo que decir.

Me hace pensar en una tierra nueva

donde paz y amor no paran de florecer ...

 

Y no importa, si surgió la estrella

y señala la ruta

a tres reyes de Oriente, cruzando el cielo ...

Y no importa,

saber si eran muchos los pastores

llevando queso y miel al Establecía ...

Y no importa,

ver que cuelgan ricas brillos

aquí y allá,

en muestra de alegría ...

 

Siento que hay algo grande, al fondo de todo.

Para definirla no encuentro ninguna palabra!

Debe ser una fuerza que conseguiría

que no haya en la tierra

ningún país sin amor

ni ningún hogar sin pan!

El dulce nombre de la Navidad nos da pistas ...

Si la fuerza existe,

debemos encontrar!

The Castle and Clan Donald Centre near Ardvasar has some beautiful grounds. Armadale Castle is a fascinating ruin. Plus it has beautiful gardens behind it and a HUGE lawn area between it and the Sound of Sleat.

 

The Clan Donald established itself on Skye in the 15th century, occupying castles at Dunscaith and Knock, both within a few miles of Armadale, and Duntulm Castle at the north end of the island.

 

From the 1650s, the MacDonald chiefs also began to stay at Armadale. From the 1700s onwards, the mansion house at Armadale was used as a dower house (a large home occupied by the widow of a late owner or chief) and then rented out to others.

 

A number of famous historical figures have visited Armadale over the years. Flora MacDonald, famed throughout the world for helping Bonnie Prince Charlie to flee Scotland after the Jacobites' defeat at Culloden, was married here on 6 November 1750. Samuel Johnson and James Boswell visited in 1773.

 

Around 1790, a new mansion house was built at Armadale and this, combined with the start of the plantings you see around the gardens today, became a real demonstration of the wealth and lifestyle of the landed aristocracy.

 

In 1815, the mansion house was extended to form Armadale Castle, designed by the renowned architect James Gillespie Graham. In 1855, fire destroyed much of the original house, which was replaced by the current central section (designed by David Bryce). In 1925, the MacDonald family moved to a smaller house leaving the castle to the wind and rain.

 

Today, the Gillespie Graham section is a sculptured ruin and garden with the staircase and facade often used for wedding ceremonies. Housed in what remains of the original mansion, dating from around 1790, the Somerled Rooms offer a unique conference and wedding facility.

Kinderdijk is the only place in the world where you'll find the largest concentration of operational windmills. There are nineteen windmills at Kinderdijk, and they were built between the years of 1500 and 1740. All specimens are well-preserved, and in 1997, the windmills were put on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

 

About the Kinderdijk Windmills:

More than half of the Netherlands is reclaimed land which lies under sea level, making the land prone to flooding. During the 13th century, periodic flooding became problematic, so canals were built to get rid of the excess water in the reclaimed land areas, called the Alblasserwald polders.

 

To keep flooding under control, the windmills at Kinderdijk were built to drain the excess water from the polders, and they would pump the excess water into a reservoir until level of the Lek River was lowered. However, in the 1860's the windmills could not cope with the amount of water coming into the polders, and as a result, pumping stations, powered by diesel fuel were set up, and the windmills were retired.

 

During World War II, diesel fuel became scarce, and it became difficult to operate the pumping stations, thus, the Kinderdijk windmills were brought out of retirement, and they were fully-operational until 1945, but were quickly closed down again when fuel became available. However, these noble windmills are not out of commission forever, as they can still be used in case of an emergency.

The irony, of course, is that there are no parlor tricks here. I think I may have tinkered with the white balance, but this is otherwise straight out of the camera. I sat at one of the booths and just set my shutter open pointed in random directions. Later, as can be seen with the trails of light in some of the other pictures from that night, I left the shutter open and slid the camera around on the table slowly. I think I amused myself for a good hour in this fashion. ::chuckle::

Just another example of my previous frustration of not having a camera while walking the dogs. Saturday and Sunday mornings.....those two dogs of mine, know exactly which day of the week it is and they are bouncing off the walls with excitement, demanding to go for their long walk in the woods. Up until last weekend I've left my camera at home knowing that the hassles of walking dogs and trying to get pictures outweigh the photo opportunity. But I think I've found a work around. Check out my last post. I got up this morning to go to work, and all my two dogs were interested in was finding their beds in front of the fireplace, after they followed me out of the bedroom. They knew it was Monday! If it was a weekend day, and I left without them, they would pitch a fit and wake Sassy up, as she's trying to enjoy her weekend sleep in. Nothing to come home to.....if you know what I mean. So to be able to take the dogs for a walk on the weekends and get shots like this while walking the dogs is a step up for me.

201 años dempués de la declaración de soberanía de 1808 Fai! quixo recordar esti 25 de mayu como'l día nacional d'Asturies. Pa ello, entamóse una folixa que cuntó con un recital poéticu, la ellaboración d'un mural y un conciertu con 4 grupos asturianos que punxeron la banda sonora a una xornada reivindicativa pola soberanía popular asturiana.

 

Más d’un cientu de persones participaron esti sábadu 23 na I Folixa Nacional entamada por Fai! como reivindicación y celebración del Día de la Nación Asturiana, recuerdu de la xornada qu’abre la historia contemporánea d’Asturies, el 25 de mayu de 1808, día de la declaración de soberanía de la Xunta Xeneral.

 

Doscientos ún años depués d’esti fechu y de la creación de la bandera asturiana, la organización d'esquierda soberanista Fai! quixo ufrir un menú folixeru y combativu nel marcu del CSOA La Reflexón. Abriendo les actividaes, Sergio Gutiérrez Camblor, Carlos Suari, Pablo X. Suárez, Xabel Vegas y Xandru Fernández protagonizaron el recital poéticu “Poetes agresivos (disparen les sos obres contra los que se duermen)”, onde tuvo bien presente, de la mano de los sos versos, la crítica social y la ironía más característica de cinco poetes que representaron na Folixa’l presente y el futuru de la lliteratura nacional, al tiempu que nes paredes se proyectaben imáxenes subversives qu'afalaben l'ambiente combativu del recital.

 

De siguío, dellos artistes plásticos emprimaben a diseñar un mural que tenía la histórica fras como protagonista: “Asturies enxamás vencida”.

 

Dientro del CSOA, organización, delles puestos de material y músicos ultimaben tolos detalles pa que dende les siete y media, la música entamara a sonar na I Folixa Nacional con un escenariu enllenu d'asturines y de banderes d'otros pueblos en llucha como les de los Països Catalans, Castiella, el País Llionés, Andalucía, Euskal Herria, Palestina...K-Nalón yera’l grupu encargáu de romper el silenciu col so rap dinamiteru 100% n’asturianu.

 

Darréu Arma X y 13 Palabras xubíen al escenariu de La Reflexón pa que la revolución de rimes nun aparara.Metanes l'actuación, una pancarta xubió al escenariu pa denunciar la illegalización de les idées y pola derogación de la llei de partíos.

 

Al finar esta actuación los sones reivindicativos dexaron pasu al actu políticu, onde militantes de Fai! lleeron un manifiestu en favor del 25 de mayu como día nacional d'Asturies.

I've been away from Flickr for a little while. Things got busy at work again, and the part of my brain that is interested in photography sort of switched off. I think that part of my brain is starting to reboot now, so I expect to be returning gradually.

 

There are numerous other photos of this sign (and of one just like it over by Brightleaf) on Flickr from other Durham-area photographers. Here's mine. The signs have been there for years, so I figure the Brain Repair session probably took place in November 2004.

 

This was taken back in late February with the Electro 35 GSN. Though there's no evidence of it on this shot, the light seals on that camera were starting to get pretty badly deteriorated, so I decided that in addition to having the light seals replaced I'd treat it to a full CLA. I expect to be getting the camera back in the mail any day now, good as new and ready to produce fine photos for another 40 years or so.

The Battistero (Baptistery) di San Giovanni is located in front of Florence’s Cathedral or Duomo, la Cattedrale di Santa Maria dei Fiore. The Baptistery is a Romanesque octagonal structure with three sets of double bronze doors. The commission for the first set of doors was awarded to Pisano in 1330 and they were completed in 1336. The Pisano doors were originally located on the east side of the Baptistery. In 1452, the doors were moved to the south side. In 1401, the guild of wool merchants called the Arte di Calimala announced a competition for the second set of doors. The competitors were to prepare a bronze panel depicting Abraham’s sacrifice of Isaac. Among the panels submitted to the competition were one by Filippo Brunelleschi (seen here), another by Lorenzo Ghiberti (also included in this set) and five others now lost to history. The panel created by Brunelleschi depicts the strong Abraham holding his son, Isaac, by the throat with his left hand as he is about to slash his throat with a dagger held in his right hand. The angel reaches out and grabs Abraham’s hand before the mortal slash is rendered. The ram stuck in the thicket lies in front of Isaac. In addition, two servants and a donkey are at the bottom of the panel. Brunelleschi’s work is by far more dramatic and disturbing, all angles and movement and raw emotion, like nothing that had ever been created before. The judges had a very difficult time in selecting the winner between Brunelleschi, Ghiberti and the five other participants. Ultimately, the judges declared a tie between Brunelleschi and Ghiberti, and suggested that they both work on the doors as partners. Brunelleschi would have none of it and withdrew. His ego so badly damaged that he did not create any other sculpture during his career. Instead, he pursued a career in architecture, and figured out how to build the dome for Baptistery’s neighbor the Duomo. “Today, the panels by Ghiberti and Brunelleschi hang side by side on a wall in the Bargello. Neither panel was ever used in the doors. Instead, the two panels hang together as a tribute to two of the world’s greatest artists.

I recently purchased my first lens with VR. I bought it to replace one that I broke. Note to self: don’t let your *#@$&% tripod fall over with your camera on it. Going into further detail would just make me feel like a jackass. Anyway, this is one of my first attempts at shooting handheld using the VR. I’m one of those photographers who has a tripod surgically attached at the hip, so this is a stretch for me. The bumblebees were buzzing around the first open blooms on the bluebells, so I thought I would take a shot at it. I must say, I was fairly impressed. I took several shots, and the bees were in sharp focus in most of them. It was fascinating to watch them as they crawled inside the few bluebell blooms that were completely open.
