The American Chestnut is a large, deciduous tree of the beech family native to eastern North America. Before the species was devastated by the chestnut blight, a fungal disease, it was one of the most important forest trees throughout its range. There are now very few mature specimens of the tree within its historical range, although many small sprouts of the former live trees remain.

The Stadium Business Design and Development Summit, Emirates Old Trafford, Manchetser. Award winners. Picture by Paul Heryes, Tuesday November 29, 2022.
I ran across this image in a folder with another which was being sent to a brochure designer. I had forgotten setting this one aside, knowing that I wanted to do something with textures on it. Here is the result. Texture used: one of the many nice offerings from irisb477's photostream www.flickr.com/photos/emeraldrose/
The picture was taken almost as an afterthought on the entry porch of the Barns at Timber Creek B&B near Winfield, Kansas. I didn't play around with settings, angles, etc. - just shot this one exposure. Glad I did.

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.
View large on black please... and identify this for me if you are able. The nail head next to this tiny beastie is 14mm in diameter... not sure what "penny" size the nail is... but it is holding together 4" square (10.16 cm square) landscape ties in my garden so must be AT LEAST a 60d nail according to the nail size discussion found in Wikipedia:
Nails are usually sold by weight (either in bulk or in boxes). In the US, the length of a nail is designated by its penny size. It is commonly believed that the origin of the term "penny" in relation to nail size is based on the old custom in England of selling nails by the hundred. A hundred nails that sold for six pence were "six penny" nails. The larger the nail, the more a hundred nails would cost. Thus the larger nails have a larger number for its penny size. This classification system was still used in England in the 18th century, but is obsolete there.
The penny size is written with a number and the abbreviation d for penny (e.g. - 10d). D is an abbreviation for denarius, a Roman coin similar to a penny; this was the abbreviation for a penny in the UK before decimalisation. A smaller number indicates a shorter nail and a larger number indicates a longer nail. Nails under 1¼ in., often called brads, are sold mostly in small packages with only a length designation (e.g. ½" (12 mm), 11⁄8" (28 mm), etc.). In boxes of nails that are packaged for pneumatics nails are called 8 penny nails but have a length of 2-3/8. Some 16d nails are called 16d short and measure 3-1/4". Penny size is not always directly correlated to length because nails with larger shanks and shorter lengths will be the same weight as the standard penny designation.

Take a trip to “the other side” with LukHash‘s stunning new release!
Started more than 10 years ago, “LukHash” is a one-man band (whose name we don’t know) who ‘writes and records all parts for guitars, bass, piano, drums, and synths himself’ to produce a unique breed of 80’s-inspired dance and electronica.
The music (still) doesn’t slow down as he puts out his latest effort, “The Other Side,” a 14-track result of his continuous tinkering with the SID chiptune, Nintendo digital logic soundchip, and Commodore 64 systems [plus more]. The by-product: a solid collection that illustrates his passion and innate skill to create cutting-edge music which is as fresh as his earlier material.
“Another World” commences the madness, taking you ‘auditorily’ to an imaginary rave where everyone is doing nothing but dance. By the time “Hold Back” ticks in, you (might) be unaware that you’ve been tapping your feet yourself, or getting crazy, even!
This is one heck of a jam.
Track list:
1. Another World
2. Hongdae
3. The Other Side
4. Eighties
5. Itaewon
6. Survive
7. Poison
8. Hold Back
9. Arcade Journeys
10. 8Bit Fairy Tale
11. Android
12. Midnight Light
13. Let’s Play
14. Hope Dies Last

Gotta love a shot pretty much straight out of camera, just a little sharpening. Took this on the way to work this morning. The wind was blowing and it was waaaay colder than I liked. My eyes were watering from the wind and I was concerned with getting a decent long exposure despite the wind buffeting around me. I tried to stand in front of the tripod and put the weight of my hand on it, hoping to keep it steady. One thirty second exposure was enough for me, in this cooold wind, after just waking up, crawling out of a warm bed, and HI HO,HI HO 'ing off to work. Usually when I get to the marina,on the way to work, I just sit in my van, eat my oatmeal, listen to morning radio, and scope out the vista, wondering if there's anything outside the windshield worth the "getting out and setting up". Today it seemed worth it. Just one shot though.
TGIF!! Have a GREAT weekend!
I'm in envy of addicts
you're obsessed with stars
dont, dont you sound
so excited you're showing me your vanity
whisper it once, just a little bit
c'mon whisper it twice,
I cant stand to see the spotlight shine one more night
just tie the rope
oh and kick the chair
just leave me hanging there,
gasping for air
yeah don't mind me three feet from the ceiling.
you'd rather watch me drown,
then see your hands get wet
you took the plot from stage to screen and turned it to
an epic scene
so whisper it once, tell me again
c'mon whisper it twice,
i cant stand to see my whole life flash before my eyes.
when i'm with you there's
no point in breathing.
& I think I know
why you never get to close
its cause you're too scared to
When i'm with you there's no point in breathing
so you run away for no apparent reason
cause you and I are changing with the seasons
you give me an answer as to why you're leaving
the tables full but nobodys been dealing
so fold your hand, c'mon and fold your hand
and I think I know
why you never get to close
its cause you're too scared to
when i'm with you there's
no point in breathing.
No point in breathing - the format
there isn't much else that could explain it better.
happy summer everybody

"Stop children, what's that sound...everybody look what's going down"
Buffalo Springfield
What the 4th of july is for americans, the 21st of july is for Belgians.It is after all our National holiday.The french have their quatorze juillet (14th of July).In the morning there is a mass for all the important peoples (diplomats, government, politicians , clergy...) and the royal family attends.The mass is held at the Saint-Michaels cathedral in Brussels.In the afternoon, at 4 'o clock, a military parade is held in front of the royal palace.On the 21st of July it rains mostly, it's as though the Gods do not approve of such spectacles.
I decided, against my own personal feelings, to go to Brussels because that is where the masses are to be found on such a day.I ended up photographing homeless people and people who had attended the crowds outside the cathedral...trying to catch a glimpse of his Majesty King Albert I and his family.If only the sun had come out it would have been a glorious day indeed.
At present, belgium is a country in turmoil.Politicians can't seem to make up their mind in this divided country.But the people, the people showed up in masses, as though to say : "We want Belgium To exist as one country, an undevided Belgium where language or political color as no bearing on things"
The people of Belgium have always lived together ; Flanders and Wallonie, for common people there is no divided Belgium.It's all in the mind of certain Politicians who want to push through their extremist ideas and do away with solidarity across the language borders.I pity the day when Flanders and Wallonie (The Ardennes) each go their merry way and I even hope that day never comes.I'm a firm believer of the unity of Belgium.We are one in our uniqueness.

365 - 11.8.08
So this is pretty rad. This happened due to a glitch in my SD card. i planned on a totally different idea for my 365, but when i went to transfer the photos my camera combined my photo with 2 old photos that had already been deleted. The bottom 2 images are completly untouched, the top portion i added an artifical light leak to give it the same feel. Let me know what you think!

I'll get my honey, grab some money, split to Drag City
Round the dragway thick exhaust fills the air
The final teams tachin up and action everywhere
Checkered flags, wheelstands, sure sounds pretty
To hear the cheers, bring your ears out to Drag City
Chorus

Goin to Drag City

From the farmer's market folks
Fava Beans with Prosciutto
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons minced prosciutto
1 teaspoons minced garlic
1-1/2 pounds fresh fava beans in the pod, shelled, parboiled, and peeled (yields 1 cup of fava beans)
1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the prosciutto and sauté for 1 minute. Add the garlic and sauté, stirring constantly, until mixture is fragrant and just beginning to turn brown, another 1 to 2 minutes.
Add the fava beans, season with salt and sauté until the beans are heated and coated well with the pan contents, another 2 minutes. (Some of the beans will begin to turn a lighter color.)
Add the balsamic vinegar, turn off the heat, and stir to coat. Add the mint and stir to combine and wilt it.
Additional Comments: TIP: Fava beans have two protective layers: a pod with a soft, furry lining; and a tough skin around each bean. Popping the beans out of the pod is obvious. Unless the beans are very young, they need to be peeled before using.
To remove the skin, boil the beans briefly, about a minute, cool under running water, and pinch the loose skin off with your fingers.

On a sunny morning in May 2007, I visited the Anhauser-Busch Clydesdales at Sea World in San Diego. A mama mare and her young colt were in the paddock, mama grazing on the green grass, while her colt slept soundly nearby. The colt finally woke up, sleepily stood pretty still for a while, checked to see if his mama was close, then lay down on the grass again for some more sleep. They were so beautiful!
These very large horses are kept in such beautiful condition, with the long white hair on their enormous hooves brushed every day. Georgeous animals!
INFORMATION ON THE CLYDESDALE:
The Clydesdale is a breed of draft horse derived from the very hard-working farm horses of Clydesdale, Scotland, and named for that region. Thought to be over 300 years old, the breed was extensively used for pulling heavy loads in rural, industrial and urban settings, their common use extending into the 1960s when they were a still a familiar sight pulling the carts of milk and vegetable vendors.
Source: Wikipedia
From Anheuser-Busch Website:
The Anheuser-Busch Clydesdales were formally introduced to August A. Busch Sr., President of Anheuser-Busch, Inc., by his son on April 7, 1933. To qualify for one of the traveling hitches, an Anheuser-Busch Clydesdale must be a gelding (neutered male) at least four years of age. He must be 18 hands (6 ft. or 1.8 m); weigh between 1,800 to 2,000 lb. (817 - 907 kg); be bay in color; and have four white stocking feet, a blaze of white on the face and a black mane and tail.
Groups of ten Clydesdales travel together as a hitch team. Eight Clydesdales are hitched together to pull the wagon. Two horses travel as alternates.
The physical ability of each horse determines its position in the hitch. Wheelhorses (the pair closest to the wagon) must be large and strong enough to start the wagon’s movement and to use their weight to help slow or stop the vehicle. The body (second position) and swing (third position) pairs must be agile to turn the wagon. The leaders (the pair in front, furthest from the wagon) must be the fastest and most agile pair.

Isherwood grave
www.gravestonephotos.com/public/gravedetails.php?grave=21...
First Baron of Raggleswood, Sir Joseph William Isherwood. Married Annie Mary Fleetham of the Headland, Hartlepool. They had four children: Arnold, Alberta, William (the Second Baron of Raggleswood) and Marie. Arnold and Alberta are buried with Joseph at St Mary's, West Acklam, whilst William is buried with his mother, Annie Mary, at St Luke's, Bromley, Kent. Sir Joseph died at his London home, Grosvenor House, Park Lane, London W1. The Isherwood's Baronetcy name was provided from their country residence, the original Raggleswood House, located in Chislehurst, Kent. This is retained throughout various photographs by the Chislehurst Society and notably, the ariel view of the house taken in 1935, just prior to Sir Joseph's death. His eminent career is well mapped and recorded within various publications. He remains a well respected man, international naval architect, husband and father. His memory lives on through his contributions to naval research and through his assistance to government, notably during the First World War and in liaison with the Prime Minister, Stanley Baldwin. Sir Joseph's patents and designs were tested in liaison with the government at the National Physics Laboratory (NPL) Teddington. His family remain proud of his contributions towards naval technology advancement, all around the world. The Isherwood Hall at St. Mary’s was commissioned after Alberta and Arnold’s early passing, by Sir Joseph & Lady Annie Mary. The Hall was purposely built in the Arts & Crafts style. During this period, the family were living in Middlesbrough, whilst Joseph was building his first ship with the local firm Craggs. In addition, and after Alberta’s death, Sir Joseph & Lady Annie presented St Mary’s with a silver chalice, paten and wafer box, in her dear memory. In the family’s honour and memory, various plaques and tablets are visible at St Mary’s church and hall. Sir Joseph’s career stands as a testament to a great man.

...El cuatrimestre seguía, y cada clase que pasaba quedaba más fascinado con los profesores: a cada clase le ponían energía, originalidad, buena onda... tanto que ya uno esperaba el martes para ir a pasarla bien y ya uno (o por lo menos yo), a pesar de no tener ninguna obligación real de hacer los trabajos que se le iban pidiendo (ya que el control sobre los mismos casi no existía) se sentía como en obligación personal de hacerlos... Ya no era cuestión de entregar un trabajo; era cuestión de mostrarles a personas que estimabas mucho lo que habías logrado...
Tan así que, cuando un día (3 días antes de la entrega del primer cuatrimestre) dejé (de colgado cual soy) la carpeta en el 42, estaba más desesperado por la decepción que ese evento pudiese causar en los profesores que la nota que me iba a sacar por traer muy poco (o sea lo que de ahí a tres días lograse rehacer).
Esta foto pertenece a uno de los últimos trabajos que hicimos durante el primer cuatrimestre.

Santiago Taylor vive en Providencia desde que nació; antes del paso del huracán Iota se dedicaba a pescar, pero hoy convirtió su patio en un vivero comunitario de mangle rojo.
“El mangle me salvó la vida, el barco que usaba para pescar desapareció”, le comentó Taylor al ministro de Ambiente y Desarrollo Sostenible, Carlos Eduardo Correa, quien estuvo en la isla el pasado fin de semana haciendo seguimiento a las intervenciones que se realizan en el archipiélago mediante la Operación Cangrejo Negro.
En Providencia se han construido cuatro viveros en los que se han sembrado más de 7000 plántulas de mangle rojo y negro, pero también frutales como coco, tamarindo, grosella, cañafístula y mango, entre otras especies que empezaron a escasear en la isla.
La Corporación para el Desarrollo Sostenible del Archipiélago de San Andrés, Providencia y Santa Catalina (Coralina) y Parques Nacionales Naturales de Colombia han estado al frente de la construcción de viveros, mientras que el Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras (Invemar) y el Instituto Humboldt han apoyado la consecución del material vegetal que se planta en estas fábricas de oxígeno.
“Hay esperanza”
“Tenemos 320 familias de Providencia que reciben hoy el incentivo de Pago por Servicios Ambientales que otorgamos desde el Ministerio de Ambiente, una figura que implementamos por primera vez para apoyar a las familias afectadas por el huracán Iota, y al mismo tiempo avanzar, de la mano de las mismas comunidades, en la recuperación de la isla. Es un proceso lento porque sembrar y reforestar son acciones que se deben hacer con rigor; además de que las plantas tienen su tiempo para crecer y estar en condiciones para ser trasplantadas en los ecosistemas que ya estamos recuperando. La isla hoy tiene otra cara y en los rostros de las personas hay esperanza”, explicó el ministro Correa.
Bernardo Bernard también ha vivido toda su vida en Providencia; es técnico en construcción pero se ha dedicado a ser guía turístico. Todos lo llaman Big Boy, por su estatura, y es de las personas que más conoce la isla. Hoy, tras el Iota, cambió su trabajo por el de restauración. “La isla necesita ser recuperada para que el turismo vuelva”, comentó durante la siembra de mangle que se hizo el fin de semana junto al ministro de Ambiente.
15 hectáreas
El ministro Correa constató el estado de los viveros que se han habilitado y el inicio de la reforestación en el Parque Nacional Natural Providence Old McBean Lagoon, donde hay 11 parcelas en las que se empezaron a restaurar 15 hectáreas con la siembra de mangle rojo y negro.
A través del programa de Pago por Servicios Ambientales también se beneficia a familias que ahora se dedican a la limpieza de caños y arroyos obstruidos por escombros y residuos que dejó Iota a su paso.
“La iniciativa Pagos por Servicios Ambientales está programada hasta el mes de diciembre, sin embargo, estamos buscando alternativas para extenderlo y mantenerlo por varios meses más, pues hemos visto el resultado de trabajar con los isleños, quienes tienen un gran compromiso con la conservación y la protección de los ecosistemas marinos y el bosque seco tropical”, finalizó el ministro Carlos Eduardo Correa, quien visitó varias familias beneficiadas. / Sep. 12, 2021.
