Les tresses rondes :
Les bobinots sont positionnés sur des fuseaux se trouvant sur un plateau. Les fuseaux tournent pour moitié dans un sens et pour l’autre dans le sens contraire, en se croisant.
Un trou au centre du plateau permet d’introduire une mèche autour de laquelle les fils sont tressés.
Les tresseuses étaient installées par rangs de dix machines, positionnées face à face et reliées aux arbres de transmission placés au sol. L’ouvrière pouvait donc surveiller deux rangs de machines à la fois.
A cet étage, on trouvait des tresseuses à 12,16, 20 et 32 fuseaux, produisant une tresse de 5 à 22 mm. Ces tresses étaient utilisées comme mèche à briquet, mèche de lampe à pétrole et courroies de transmission. Les tresses plates, elles, servaient de lacet, de mèche à briquet et dans la passementerie.
The Otter and Owl centre is worth a trip just for the hothouse. And this was one of the hottest parts, clearly!
Butterflies are one of those animals that just don't seem tough enough to survive. Is it sheer numbers?
Do i really need to write anything here? This ones pretty self explanatory.
Testing some vintage action set i found - some are quite good. This ones not my fav, but it was the last to be run, so its the one that was saved.

CSX SD40-2 #8123 leads a manifest, probably H-GALCSX, off the IHB as it prepares to jump into the South Open at Barr Yard. Due to any earlier manifest entering Barr, I had to stay on the far east side of the diamond to shoot this train.
Position, negative and positive space, texture, and selective focus were my main focuses in this image. There are many different textures in the image, the long yellow grass that's covered in snow and one small piece left from my family's Christmas tree on top. I positioned the shot so the piece of tree was off-centered and down in a corner just a little bit. This also created more negative and positive space in the image. While editing I just made a few adjustments to the saturation, clarity, and contrast to make some things pop.
In chapter two from Freeman we focus on contrast and balance, this image had a lot of different contrast and balance thoughts. I wanted the green and yellow to contrast and the position of the tree branch to almost balance the image.
After much *fun* with a jack, two lengths of timber, a bar and some rollers, I popped the check rail into position on the curved road of #1 turnout. YC's in background connected by temporary track to our mainline. Will be nice to see these moved!
Here is a quick breakdown for my strobist 102 assignment 1.1 involving lighting angles. Source light was a single flash unit positioned at 9, 3, 4:30, 6, 7:30 o'clock at 0, 35 and 45 degree angles for each.
The flash distance was not measured so certain sections may appear brighter because of that.
