The latrine ditch at Haughmond Abbey, near Shrewsbury, Shropshire.

 

From Wikipedia

----------------

The precise origins of the Abbey are unclear. It is known that it was put on a sound footing for the first time in the years around 1135, when Henry I died and the country passed into the Anarchy, in which Stephen and Empress Matilda competed for power. Around that time William Fitzalan granted a fishery at Preston Boats, about 3km south of the abbey on the River Severn - the first clear indication that the abbey existed. It is not certain that Wiliam Fitzalan founded or was the first to endow the community. His father, Alan fitz Flaad, acquired the abbey site, along with other large estates in Shropshire and Sussex from Rainald de Bailleul. It is possible that he was the founder, or even that it began before his time, as a small religious community towards the end of the 11th century. Augustinian communities often began as small gatherings around a noted hermit before growing into established monasteries, or even small religious orders: the Abbey of Arrouaise in northern France, which had a Shropshire community at nearby Lilleshall Abbey, is an example.

----------------------

and

----------------------

The Haughmond Abbey buildings, like those at Lillehall, show signs of Cistercian architectural influence. The standing remains are of white sandstone rubble construction with ashlar dressings. Most of the buildings were grouped around two cloisters. They include: the foundations and west cloister doorway of the late 12th and early 14th century church; the late 12th century chapter house (which is still roofed); the west wall of the warming house and dorter; the walls of the frater and its undercroft; and the early 13th century infirmary, flanked by the abbot's lodging to the east. Apart from a few walls, little else has survived from the western side of the site and, at the northern edge, the abbey church has completely disappeared - although the cruciform ground plan is still clearly visible.

Much more precise location of the pre-assembled pier was necessary here since not only leveling was required but also span distance and siting in line and parallel to the North pier came into play.

 

The small Larch tree visible behind the timbers didn't like all this interference and promptly died the next Winter.

Precise Perspective with Shiva

We recently had a week’s holiday to take – Jayne’s job dictates my holidays – we went through the usual process of leaving it late and then desperately selecting a shortlist of cities where we thought the weather might be ok, after a reasonably short flight and we can fly from the north of England. Budapest was the chosen destination.

 

Budapest is touted as possibly the most beautiful city in Europe and we had a stream of people tell us that it was fantastic. It is. I was looking forward to getting there, no agenda other than walking, photographing the sights and trying to get off the beaten track. We certainly walked – over 70 miles – I photographed it ( I’m a bit embarrassed to say how many shots but it was a lot ) but I’m not sure we got off the beaten track as much as I wanted to.

 

We flew over Eastern England (and home actually – a first for us) and out over Europe. It was a late afternoon flight on a stunning day, one of the more interesting flights I’ve had. I was glued to the window watching the world go by, wondering about all of lives being played out beneath us. It was dark when we arrived. We were staying on the Buda or Castle Hill side of the city. What we didn’t know was, we were staying in one of the most prominent hotels in the city, sat on the hilltop overlooking Budapest. The Hilton sits on an historic sight and features in every photo taken of the Castle District from Pest. We had time to get out before bedtime and photograph the Matthias Church next door – floodlit – like all of the major buildings in Budapest.

 

Unfortunately after leaving the best weather of the year in the UK, Budapest was forecast to be a bit dull and cool – not what we wanted. There was occasional sun over the first two days but it was generally grey. Now I have to admit, I let the dullness get me down, I took photos because I wasn’t sure how the week would unfold but I was fairly sure that I was wasting my time. The photos would be disappointing and if it was sunny later we would have to revisit all of the famous landmarks again to get something that I was happy with. This is essentially what happened. The next four days were gorgeous and we did revisit, more than once all of the places that we walked to in the first two days. This meant that we didn’t have the time to go “off piste” or venture further afield as much later in the week.

 

The sun was rising before seven and we were staying in the best location for watching it rise. By day three I was getting up at 6.00 (5.00 our time) and getting out there with my gear. By day four I was using filters and tripod, not something I usually bother with despite always having this gear with me, and dragging it miles in my backpack. One morning I was joined by a large and noisy party of Japanese photographers, they appeared to have a model with them who danced around the walls of the Fisherman’s Bastion being photographed. Once the orange circle started to appear above the city they started clicking at the horizon like machine guns. We all got on well though and said goodbye as we headed off for breakfast – still only 7.15am.

 

By 8.00am everyday we were out on foot wandering along the top of Castle Hill wondering where to go that day. We tend to discover the sights as we walk on a city break, frequently discovering things as we head for a distant park or building and research it afterwards with a glass of wine. It works for us. We walked out to Heroes’ Square and beyond, returning by less well known streets. We walked along the Danube to Rákóczi Bridge a couple of times then back into Pest using a different route. Having been under the thumb of Russia for so long and considering its turbulent past there are lots of large Russian style monuments, tributes to great struggles, or the working man – very socialist and very much like Prague in a lot of respects. The Railway stations were also very similar to Prague, you could walk across the tracks and no one bothered. In the main station, now famed for the migrant crisis a few weeks previously, there was a mixture of very new and very old rolling stock from the surrounding countries, all very interesting. Considering that this station is the first thing some visitors to the city will see it is an appalling state. One side of the exterior is shored up and fenced off. This contrasts with the expensive renovation work that has been well executed in the city centre. It really is like stepping into the past when you enter the station building. It all seems to work efficiently though, unlike the UK.

 

Transport in Budapest is fascinating. Trams everywhere, trolley buses, ancient and new, bendybuses, again, very old and very new, the underground metro, yellow taxis in enormous numbers and of course the river and boats. This never ending eclectic mix seems to operate like clockwork with people moved around in vast numbers seamlessly. The trams looked packed at any time of day. Anyone dealing with tourists seemed to speak very good English, which is just as well as we didn’t have any grasp of Hungarian. Cost wise it was a very economical week for us in a capital city.

 

Once the weather (or light, to be precise) improved, I cheered up and really enjoyed Budapest. A common comment after visiting is that , although you’ve “done Budapest” you wouldn’t hesitate to go back, which isn’t always the case after a city visit. As ever, I now have a lot of work to do to produce a competent album of work. I think I will end up discarding a lot of the early days material – but then again, I’m not renowned for my discarding skills.

 

Thank you for looking.

This equipment for generating the BBC time signal, or 'pips', employed an internal atomic clock, and the means to compare it electronically with other, remotely-sited, atomic clocks. Installed at the Royal Greenwich Observatory at Herstmonceaux in 1970, it had a working life of 20 years, feeding its precise signals by wire to Broadcasting House in London.

 

The BBC's first broadcast of the 'pips', 5 February 1924, was encouraged by Frank Dyson, the Astronomer Royal, and Frank Hope-Jones, inventor of the 'Synchronome' electrically driven pendulum clock. Hope-Jones was an advocate of William Hamilton Shortt's 'free pendulum' clocks which were installed at Greenwich in 1924 and provided the signal for the 'pips'. These were replaced in 1949 by two quartz oscillators, and then by the atomic clock shown here. The BBC now has its own compact system of atomic clocks, linked by radio to international atomic time standards.

 

These developments were part of a long-term drive to supply the British public with a precise time reference. From the mid-nineteenth century onwards, standardised 'railway time' was first disseminated by telegraph, replacing a system of 'local times' whereby, for example, Bristol time was ten minutes behind London. From 1880, Greenwich time was made the standard for Britain and increasingly accurate clocks were employed to this end.

Ohio State Highway Patrol Trooper Fred Cook works with extremely precise measuring equipment to accurately map the damage to vehicles involved in a fatal auto accident just south of Pickerington Road on State Route 33 late Monday evening June 28, 2004. The vehicles were impounded and towed to John's Towing Services lot near Baltimore were these photos were taken Wednesday June 30, 2004. Dewey Workman II, 38, died at the scene on Rt. 33 just east of Canal Winchester, the State Highway Patrol said. Workman was westbound on Rt. 33 about 7:25 p.m. and slowing for a stoplight at Pickerington Road when his sport-utility vehicle was hit from behind by a commercial pickup driven by Frederick Pearson, 37, of the West Side. Workman's Pick-up caught fire and was forced into the rear of a pickup driven by William Holley, 54, of the Northwest Side. Holley's truck then struck the rear of a car driven by Melissa Reed, 19, of Lancaster. Pearson and his passenger, Michael W. Sayre, 16, who share the same West Side address, were taken to Mount Carmel East hospital with minor injuries, troopers said.

The Canon 28-135 IS lens at its best as an 28mm f5.6 lens. The 28-135 is and excellent 28 mm lens but an awful 35mm one and never fully recovers towards the long end of the zoom range.

 

When I finally figured out those details I avoided using the lens at 35 mm if the photo could be taken at 28 or 50mm instead. It would be nice if such performance details could be fund in the lenses manual.

 

When I bought it the detailed performance tests available today in the Internet where not yet available. So it took a while to figure the lens out.

 

Today I head to to www.the-digital-picture.com/ to look at actual images taken from test charts with the lens. This allows precise and detailed performance comparisons. But it is much more difficult to figure out if the weaknesses most lenses show there have any relevance for real photos. But for me this is still easier than to try to make sense of MTF graph based tests.

This series was created in the second half of my final year at Nottingham Trent.

I decided to dedicate this project to looking at the representation of women in the media, or their body shape to be precise - it remains the discussion point in all media, even though men never get judged in the same way. And, so I created a series of fashion photographs that explore the effect of having a certain physique. As the media seems to be in support of a 'slimmer' female shape, I dedicated my series to embracing the curvy shape and questioning the very slim figure.

When was the world's first railway laid? No one is quite confident on a precise date but simple rails have been used to guide vehicles for centuries, definitely as far back as the middle ages and possibly even in ancient Greece.

 

What is certain is that in the early 1600s a Nottinghamshire businessman called Huntingdon Beaumont came to Northumberland and laid rails from collieries near Blyth to a shipping point on the coast.

 

His waggonway used horses hauling wooden waggons on wooden wheels on wooden rails, however this was not a financial success. It did though provide the spark of progression from primitive wooden rails over short distances, to a railway network which would change Britain and the world forever.

 

Tyneside Roads

 

From the mid 1600 onwards waggonways and the Tyneside coal industry became linked so closely that they were known throughout the rest of Britain as 'Tyneside Roads'. A network of lines linked collieries on both sides of the Tyne to the river.

 

It is no coincidence that the North East was the area where waggonways took greatest hold, because canal building was impossible due to deep valleys and steep hills. What set the rail systems of Tyneside apart from all others was its use of the flanged wheel - a key element of the modern railway as we know it.

 

A revelation

 

When the Tanfield Railway - or waggonway as it was known at the time - was built in 1725, it was a revelation. Its massive engineering was unlike anything else in its era, or even since the Roman Empire. It was a triumph of engineering over nature, a clear signal that a new industrial age was upon the world, and that railways would play a massive part.

 

First laid down more than a quarter of a century before the first railway officially sanctioned by government, over 75 years before the first steam locomotive and a whole 100 years earlier than the Stockton and Darlington Railway, the Tanfield Railway is the world's oldest railway. We will be the first railway to celebrate our tricentenary in 2025.

The precise creator of this poster is unknown and is not credited. It might be part of a collection distributed by Sylvain Cordier Posters and Wall Art at allposters.com. Adapted. No rights assumed. Very fun poster.

Ron Moore hand-cuts tiny pieces in a neat, precise geometric style. He uses his mathematical & computer skills to create and deform a complex geometric grid which he uses as a cutting template. With selected images, such as this blue & white chrysanthemum Japanese origami paper, he can make puzzles of tailored difficulty. Ron includes his signature turtle piece at the centre of his circular puzzles.

 

www.turtleteasers.com/html/body_puzzles.html

 

Top Left & Lower Left: Turtleteasers 151pc Blue Chrysanthemums, 6in diameter 2012. Received by Terry Walters at the 2012 Pagey Elliott Puzzle Exchange. You can see that the jigsaw is divided into six segments, but the cutting is fairly uniform across them.

 

Top Right: Turtleteasers 55pc Blue Chrysanthemum, 4in diameter. This doesn't seem to have been divided into segments, but worked in rings. (Post script - looking closer I can see the segments!)

 

Centre Right: Turtleteasers 151pc Blue Chrysanthemum, 6in diameter cut May 2017. This example has more obvious pie slices or six segments which change as you go around the circle, the piece shapes morphing into each other. The pieces are more varied and distinctive making the jigsaw easier to do.

 

Lower Right: Turtleteasers 292pc Peacock Plate, 8in diameter cut May 2016. Another jigsaw which varies across the six segments.

 

www.puzzleparley.org/exch2012puzzles/exch2012Moore.html

 

John Stokes page linking his reviews of all the 2012 PEPE jigsaws:

www.custompuzzlecraft.com/PuzzleMakers/2012puzzleexchange...

 

John Stokes says: "I found Japanese Blue Chrysanthemums to be by far the most difficult of the non-trick Parley Exchange puzzles to assemble. Took me several hours in the wee of the night to do it. This particular puzzle is basically just blue and white and since the pieces are small I found for some areas of the puzzle, the fairly uniform distribution of white and blue on the pieces made it very difficult to find a matching piece by color alone, rather I had to focus on the shape. Adding injury to insult (lol), Ron wrote: You were fortunate in that from your email I can deduce that you had one of the "easy" ones. The easy puzzles had quite a variety of piece shapes, specifically there were 4 distinct edge cuts, plus their inverses. The difficult versions had a single type of edge cut (plus the single inverse), so they were quite a bit more tricky. For someone who wants a nice difficult puzzle to solve, this one is for you."

 

I can confirm that this 151pc jigsaw is indeed very difficult! It took me three or four sessions, and I think it is probably more difficult than the larger 8in diameter puzzle I own, which you can see above. I think it is also one of the less difficult versions of the puzzle - there being several different edge piece shapes.

 

Grâce à un collègue qui a vanté mes photos à une de ses amies, je vais bientôt exposer quelques clichés dans une médiathèque du Tarn et Garonne. Une autre expérience de rencontres avec des gens peut-être moins amateurs de photos que les Flickériens. Mises sous cadre, film de protection, je suis presque prêt.

What makes Rachel happy? Food and cooking it. Scallops to be precise, but really any opportunity to cook for her partner and/or friends. Apparently, she also has a wicked garden.

 

I saw Rachel at my usual Sunday morning coffee shop and was immediately struck by the colour of her sweater against the red brick wall behind her. When I went over to introduce myself, I saw the colour of her eyes and knew that this would be perfect. As somebody who tends to favour B&W images, I'm finding that I'm also spending more time looking for successful colour combinations than I usually do. Yet another side benefit/area of improvement that I'm discovering with this. As of Jan 8, this is still my favourite shot of the entire series; the colour, the expression, and the lighting. I've got my work cut out to to top this one.

 

The sweater comes from Banana Republic and we shared a few minutes talking about how it was one of the few places where she, as a tall woman and I, as a small man, could both find clothes that fit relatively well off the rack.
