A non-native duck for the UK. This lone North American wood duck is roaming free amongst Mallards. She may be from a private collection or blown here in storm winds.
good to go
One of 10 Wood Duck that have turned up on a pond in Ebbwvale. Mystery as to where they came from, and despite most likely being an escapee domestic Ducks from a private collection, they are certainly getting comfortable.
There are laws and definitions
And decisions and errors
And unforeseen conditions
That define the course of history.

Ikaria is one of the most recognizable sculptures by Igor Mitoraj. Its original replica was placed in the Paris district of La Défense, next to the most famous works of sculpture artists from around the world. The three-meter version of Ikaria, created in 1996, currently presented in the courtyard of the Pod Blachą Palace, comes from a private collection. The birthplace of the monumental figure is the Italian foundry of Pietrasanta in Tuscany. Until now, the figure was in the mBank's art collection, and then acquired by a private owner, was deposited for a temporary exhibition, related to the jubilee of the reconstruction of the Royal Castle in Warsaw.
The artist's work was inspired by the world of Greek and Roman mythology, and Ikaria is a clear reference to the myth of Daedalus and Icarus. Ascent as well as fall. Winged Ikaria reminds us of the eternal human drive to fulfillment and development, to rise to the heights of his abilities. It depicts a winged woman, proud in her majesty. Ready until it can take to the air. Both the inspiration and the obstacle in this flight may seem to be the male face, which we see in several places: in the hole cut on one of the wings, on the side and in the womb of the woman. A male hand prevents a female from flying into the skies.

This was in Dyer, Arkansas. I don't if this was a store, museum or a private collection. I made a few exposures and moved on since I didn't have permission to be there. 12 exposure panoramic image constructed in Lightroom Classic.
Gazbia Sirry (1925 Cairo - 2021 Cairo)
Oil on canvas
Private Collection, Bahrain
Currently at the exhibition "Radical! Women*Artists and Modernism 1910-1950 | Radikal! Künstlerinnen* und Moderne 1910–1950" in the Lower Belvedere in Vienna
Gazbia Sirry's 'Song of the Revolution' is an homage to the Egyptian Revolution and the toppling of the Egyptian monarchy in 1952. Nasser's subsequent presidency was certainly a great disappointment for her. In 1959 she and her husband were even imprisoned on allegations of Communist activity.

I love visiting the Jervis Bay Maritime Museum in Huskisson. There is a fascinating room containing a private collection, shown in this photo.
This piece of fossiled wood ( Metasequoia sp.) collected in the Shoshone National forest from the Eocene Absaroka Volcanic Supergroup; Absaroka Mountains, Park County,Wyoming. This specimen is part of a private collection.
We often call this kind of fossil “petrified wood,” but that name isn’t quite accurate. After the tree was buried, minerals in groundwater or hydrothermal fluids slowly filled the tiny pores and spaces within the wood. This process is called permineralization. As this mineralization process continued the cellular wood structure itself began to be replaced atom by atom until a stone copy of the wood was made.
Over time, these minerals—most often quartz (SiO₂) in forms like agate, chalcedony, or jasper—hardened and preserved the wood’s natural texture and growth patterns. Occasionally, other minerals such as calcite, pyrite, opal, hematite, or even uraninite and carnotite (uranium ores) can be the permineralizing and replacement material.
Largest private collection of steam locomotives in the world.
In September 1905, the American Locomotive Company’s Pittsburg. Works constructed A-7 class 0-6-0 No.1643 for the Southern Railway. After over four decades of working in relative obscurity shuffling cars for the Southern, the engine was retired and parked in the scrap line. Unlike its numerous sister engines, however, No.1643 got a reprieve from the scrapper’s torch when it was purchased by the Morehead and North Fork Railway, a small 4-mile long short line in Kentucky. Renumbered to 12, the engine was put to work hauling trains of local clay products, coal and lumber to the Chesapeake & Ohio interchange in Morehead. (Age of Steam Roundhouse)
