Trees in winter

With the arrival of winter, and often at the end of autumn, a new problem arises with trees. This specific "winter" problem is associated with the accumulation of wet snow and the formation of frost on the branches and trunks of trees. "Freezing rains" - phenomena occur under certain combinations of weather conditions: sleet, wind, fog, sudden changes in temperature with a "transition through 0 degrees". Such a significant load on the branches and trunks of trees can lead to emergency situations:

1. Breaking off and collapse of large branches. Typical for poplar, aspen, willow, linden, oak. To a lesser extent for pines and elms.

2. Breaking the forks of co-dominant trunks. Most often found in the above tree species with V-shaped forks. Less typical for U-shaped forks of birch and spruce.

3. Bending under the weight of snow and ice, with possible breaking of the trunks of inclined trees.

 

I found the trees without obvious problems :)

Strange title for sure, but I have an association with somebody screwing in a new light bulb in a lamp.

Taken yesterday, when spring arrived in the middle of winter, and I went out to the Noordwaard. The light was amazing, so another problem with too many nice shots and animal encounters (sea eagle, hare, kestrel, ducks like the smew, buzzards etc. etc.).

And bees everywhere.

I normally always forget to use my macro lens, but this time I was sensitized by the emerging macro's of snowdrops, so when I saw them I thought I could give it a try.

I found it rather frustrating to capture a bee on a snowdrop, because they are so fast and never sit still in the right place. So I was 'somewhat' surprised to see this one later when i was going through my images.

"hey little apple blossom

what seems to be the problem

all the ones you tell your troubles

to they don't really care for you come

and tell me what you're thinking

cause just when the boat is sinking

a little light is blinking

and i will come and rescue you

lots of girls walk around in tears

but that's not for you you've been

looking all around for years for

someone to tell your troubles to

come and sit with me and talk awhile

let me see your pretty little smile

put your troubles in a little pile

and i will sort them out for you

i'll fall in love with you

i think i'll marry you"

This is an image I likely wouldn't have posted, but after an interesting conversation with Flickr friend Flaushi & Friends on a swan she captured out on the ocean, I decided to share.

 

I had heard there was an owl at the lake not too far from work, so I decided to take a second trip (first trip was unsuccessful) after my shift to look for her. My daughter and faithful Border Collie, Bandit came along on the adventure.

After looking for a short time I spotted her out on the docks and walked around the shore trying to find a half decent angle to photograph her. In the meantime, a pair of mute swans swam over to see if we had brought them any goodies. I ignored them at first, since the owl had my full attention, but one of the two was quite persistent. He (or she) came right up to shore, stood up tall and was almost beak to nose with Bandit. Bandit was quite entertained and went into his usual OCD dance bouncing up and down on his hind legs and licking the ice at his feet. The swan wasn't at all phased and stretched out his long neck with an expectant look on his face. When he finally decided I had nothing for him, he swiftly ruffled his feathers and turned away from me. This was captured as he swam away glancing back with a look of disgust at my insensitivity for showing up empty handed.

   

Sa taille, sa silhouette, son allure générale le font confondre par les débutants avec une Buse variable ou une Bondrée apivore. Ce problème d'identification ne résiste pas à un examen plus minutieux. Son plumage est brun uniforme par dessus contrastant avec les parties inférieures qui sont blanches et délicatement mouchetées de brun. Sa tête large et plus sombre apparaît comme disproportionnée par rapport au reste du corps. Son envergure importante lui confère une silhouette massive en vol, reconnaissable entre toutes. Sa tête un peu semblable à celle d'un strigidé et ses iris jaunes sont très caractéristiques.

La femelle est un peu plus grande que le mâle. Les immatures ressemblent aux adultes, mais ils sont plus pâles, avec la nuque plus blanche. La gorge et la poitrine sont brun-roux clair. Le reste des parties inférieures est blanc, légèrement teinté de brun. Les yeux sont jaunes très brillants. La cire et les pattes sont gris pâle.

 

Le Circaète Jean-le-Blanc a un régime alimentaire exclusif. Il se nourrit de reptiles et plus particulièrement de serpents parmi lesquels ses proies préférées sont les grandes couleuvres (à collier ou d'Esculape). Une telle spécialisation est un phénomène assez rare chez les rapaces. Les serpents et les lézards sont avalés entiers si bien que l'on peut voir la queue du reptile dépasser du bec alors que l'oiseau est déjà en train de digérer la tête.

"Sure you've heard of her, whispers telling you to lock your windows tight

Gotham's got a problem

Under the moonlight

Must be careful or you'll lose everything, might

You have heard of her, whispers warning you about the Catwoman

Gotham's got a problem"

99 problems, but a bitch ain't one...

 

All life, as if an endless moment...

Seasons change after season.

This whole wonderful world was in white,

Then suddenly it becomes green again...

Where is the line, the one beyond which this life is?

Where is sensuality, and where is rationality?

Where is what we call MIRAGES,

And where is the inexorable reality?

And the world - it is as if woven from problems,

The mysteries in it are sometimes inexplicable,

But we live in it for some reason, why?

Everything in this world is so inexplicable...

We want it to be simple, why?

To understand everything that we do not understand?

So that no one understands

Everything that we feel and everything that we know?

What are we striving for, what do we want to understand?

First we create, and then we destroy again,

We are so used to losing so much,

That our souls become hardened from losses.

We are used to life, and it is only a moment!

I just started living, and life is already coming to an end,

And this world remains a fairy tale

A mystery, once unsolved...

 

(There's a problem with this one not showing on the Flickr feed - again! Thought they had solved it but apparently its back)

 

These tiny blue beauties really are very small, similar to, but smaller than forget-me-nots.

 

It's a very interesting plant the Brunnera, grown mainly for its exotic ground cover, almost succulent foliage. It has.largish, ornate leaves and wehn they begin to show again after winter it also sends out these lovely little flowers. This variety is called 'Jack Frost' .

 

I'll paste a photo of the foliage in the comments below so you can see......

As I turned, the world around me altered abruptly; vehicles, buildings and the people that operated and maintained them became transparent, and somehow time itself seemed to speed up. The ghostly remains of once tangible people flittered before my eyes, leaving behind them faint echoes that slowly faded into nothingness. That which was corporeal now appeared as if rendered in spirit. I thought at once of the charlatan, Crowley, and his Magick, but quickly dismissed the notion that such a man could bear any relationship with the truth now being revealed before my eyes: that reality was not as it seemed.

 

Turning further, my eyes alighted on the man. His left arm, raised in an almost defensive posture, was encased in some kind of satanic machine. I could see little wisps of steam rising from the elbow joint and a subtle orange glow that hinted at the incredible furnace that must lurk somewhere within. Only God knows what strange powers might be required to build such a device; as advanced as our science was at that time, it seemed to me inadequate for such artifice. I had, however, no doubt that this machine was the cause of my abstraction from the material plane and that this man must be confronted, before all that we held dear became lost.

 

I composed myself, stood tall, and approached the man.

 

“Hello,” he said. “My name’s Barry.”

NB. You’ll no doubt be pleased to learn that Barry holds no sinister plans concerning the ultimate fate of the universe; he is, in fact, a cake designer.

Possibly due to problems further up the track an unscheduled train ran Southbound with a loading of mainly empty flat wagons bound for Brighton Hub. There was no sign of the paper train or even train 36 at Brighton Hub. The loading for the evening's log train was enginless at the freight yard and there was no sign of any activity. However TR units 11 + 01 did give me an opportunity to shoot the train in this nice colourful spot approaching the Hub at Brighton. Rarely is the scenery this green in this area.

There's a problem with the wiring. Could you have a look?

It did not take me long to have a few ideas today. I was racking my brain however earlier in the week. Sometimes an idea just

pops into your head out of the blue. Problem today was that I needed to take the shot before I left for rehearsal. There would not be any real light once home later on.

Happy Macro Mondays

So this shot was pure luck. Was on an aircraft flying from Dubai to Heathrow and following the flight path on screen. Noticed we were going through Turkey so opened the blinds and saw this at 36000 feet up. Had to try take the shot and even though some clarity lost through the window it was just a beautiful sight and had to share!

 

Ararat is located at Agri in eastern Turkey near the Armenian and Iranian borders. The summit of Mt. Ararat is 5,165 meters above sea level. It is higher than any mountain in the continental United States except for Alaska or in Europe outside the Caucasus.

 

Ararat is a dormant volcano; the last eruption was on June 2, 1840. At present the upper third of the mountain is covered with snow all the time; the last hundred meters of snow at the top have turned to ice. For climbers on the mountain, fresh running water is available after the sun has been up a while to melt the snow, but it is cut off in the late afternoon when cold air has overcome the heat of the sun. Below the snow the slopes are covered with great blocks of black basalt rock, some as large as village houses.

 

Over the years various groups have explored Ararat in the hopes of finding remains of Noah's Ark. Both Josephus in about 70 A.D. and Marco Polo about 1300 A.D. mention its existence on the mountain, but their reports are based on others' accounts. Josephus remarks that its remains are on display for all to see without need of an organised exploration. In more recent years many groups have hunted for it there. The possibility that ancient fables are historical fact is intriguing, and each new discovery of truth in previously discredited records gives additional strength to continuing the search for archaeological confirmation.

 

However, the problems of establishing exactly what the biblical record in this case means are serious ones that need to be settled even before one accepts this particular high mountain as the right place to look for the ark. In itself even that ignores the possibility that Noah and his family used up the ark in bits and pieces to build their new homes, a fate that has destroyed many other famous structures in the Near East since.

 

The story of Noah's ark, as it is told in the Bible, is a reworking of an earlier Babylonian myth recorded in the Gilgamesh Epic. The hero of the earlier version is one Utnapishtim, the favorite of Ea, the god of wisdom. It seems probable that the Babylonian story was based on an unusually devastating flood in the Euphrates (Firat) River basin, and that the ark in it grounded on the slopes of one of the Zagros mountains. The biblical word that we read as "Ararat" could as well be read "Urartu"; the text has merely "rrt" and the proper vowels must be supplied.

 

Urartu was the name of a historical kingdom, but the word also meant "a land far away" and "a place in the north." So, while Buyuk Agri Dagi is a spectacular mountain and not a difficult one to climb for those experienced in high altitude exercise, it still seems less than likely that Noah's Ark will be found there. That doubt does not detract from the continuing interest in it, nor from the important achievements of archaeologists in deepening our understanding of the Old Testament.
