Fitz Roy displays it's iconic splendor with shifting leaves and wing blown trees strewn along it's footprint. This area is simply one of the most spectacular places on the planet.
Love how the outer part of the flower opened and now seems to support the flower turned skyward. Spring!
This guy was doing a presentation about bee hunters in the 18th century. I provided a photo of his bee box in the next picture. Beeswax was a prized commodity in that era and there was a pretty interested way for bee hunters to find hives where they could harvest the wax.

We once were invited along as a restaurant reviewer did his secret review of a pricey establishment. We weren't allowed to touch the food until he had dictated comments into the hidden recorder in his sleeve about the "presentation" of the food on each plate. In this photo, the presentation was good. My compliments to the chef, a.k.a. Mother Nature.
The distribution conduits for the Fisher Flour Mill in Seattle, Washington. Built in 1911. At its height, three million pounds of wheat came in every day and was shipped out as refined flour.
This early Smith & Wesson rimfire revolver is engraved, "Capt. S.F. Willard presented by the Scranton Guards." Capt. Willard died at Antietam 9/17/1862 (see flic.kr/p/MdTM4J). The revolver carries serial number 3346 on the butt and has patent dates of 4/3/1856, 7/3/1859 and 12/18/1860 on the revolver drum. According to www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Category4_..., "In 1856 Smith & Wesson formed their second partnership to produce a small revolver designed to fire the Rimfire cartridge they patented in August of 1854. This revolver was the first successful fully self-contained cartridge revolver available in the world. Smith & Wesson secured patents for the revolver to prevent other manufacturers from producing a cartridge revolver - giving the young company a very lucrative business."

While my presentation was original, most of this outfit is secondhand. The only new items were the bag strap and tights.
I love it that I can find secondhand clothing that I’m proud and happy to wear. I stood up in front of a crowd today to deliver a presentation and felt like a million bucks.
Jacket, Dries Van Noten (swap). Dress, Parker (consignment). Boots, swap. Necklace and bag, thrifted.
