… the fish market, together with Spitalfields and Smithfield markets, is in danger of moving further East to Barking Riverside. The North Dock of Canary Wharf has become too valuable a property I gather…
Wild flower in the lawn taken last year with the Tamron 90mm f2.8 lens...Woohoo it's getting to be that time of year again....time to get out of the bird blind and go exploring around my property with my macro lens!!
The Guma Lagoon is part of the vast Okavango Delta wetland. The delta is a huge triangle measuring 250 x 150 km. Yet it does not flow into any sea or ocean. It mostly simply evaporates into the hot Kalahari Desert of northern Botswana along a fault line. From a Fujichrome slide taken in 2005.

Not a flood victim. This house is actually built on a small island in the middle of the St. Lawrence River.
One of the finest investment opportunities in Darwin, CA.
Darwin, a near - ghost town, with 38 residents, is located in the Darwin Wilderness somewhat near Panamint Springs, Death Valley.
No broadband, no radio, no TV, no market and no kids ;-)

Geilston Garden is a property of the National Trust for Scotland, north-west of Cardross, Argyll and Bute. Geilston Garden was developed more than two hundred years ago with a date given for its development being 1797.
With at least 3 pairs of catbirds nesting on our property this spring, the chases and displays get pretty amusing. It was nice, for a change, to see one just acting calm. Believe this one has been sitting on a nest, based on the wet belly.
At long last, made it to this infamous location on the NC500 route with that red roof - simply a matter of driving around the road far enough, something I've never done before. I would like to think that the owner of this property is having a bit of a laugh at all the tourists wanting its photograph and he has attached a ladder to the roof!
Thanks to SkyeBaggie for title inspiration!

Excerpt from miyajima.or.jp/english/spot/spot_other.html:
Designated as a National Important Cultural Property on August 29, 1910
Hokoku Shrine is dedicated to the warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi (one of the three unifiers of Japan in the 16th century) and his loyal aid Kato Kiyomasa. The reason for building this structure is clearly stated in a letter by Ankokuji Ekei, head monk of Ankokuji Temple. In 1587, Ekei asked Daiganji Temple, the temple in charge of construction and repair work in Miyajima including Itsukushima Shrine, to build a Buddhist library in which the chanting of Senbu-kyo sutras could be held every month. As there is no board ceiling or outer gate, it is believed that the construction of the building was not completed.
Originally, Amida Buddha and two subordinate Buddhist saints, Anan and Kasho-sonja, were enshrined in the Buddhist altar until the early Meiji era. Since that time, however, the altar has been used in Shinto rituals.
The building is called Senjokaku (Hall of One Thousand Tatami Mats), reflecting its standing as the largest structure on Miyajima Island. The shrine was a popular landmark in Miyajima where many people came to relax and cool themselves and to buy popular souvenirs such as tooth picks, and a variety of legends and traditions have been created here.
The fact that this structure, unique among the buildings belonging to Itsukushima Shrine, is unpainted and that its exact date of founding is recorded makes it a valuable gauge of the passage of time. The traces of weathering on its pillars and floor boards can be used to determine the approximate age of any other wooden structure on Miyajima.
A piece of wood used as a measuring device in the reconstruction work of the O-Torii in 1873 hangs on a pillar under the floor of the south part of the shrine. Countless votive picture tablets that had been hanging on the walls of Itsukushima Shrine buildings until the mid Meiji era decorate the walls inside the hall.
The shrine did not yet exist at the time of the Battle of Itsukushima in 1555 when the Mori clan defeated the Sue clan to unify the Chugoku region. The headquarters of the Sue clan was located on this hill, which was then called To-no-oka (Pagoda Hill). Starting in the Meiji era, the hill was developed through the establishment of stone steps, among other additions.
Excerpt from www.japan-experience.com/all-about-japan/miyajima/temples...:
Its bare appearance may not intrigue you at first. Only unfinished walls and a hundred pillars. Although the building is pretty, there is something missing. But once inside, look up: the gigantic ceiling is covered with a mosaic of paintings whose subjects are as varied as the styles and periods of implementation. Medieval battles, Buddhist representations, landscapes and animals in a modern style, the eye does not know where to turn.
the property yard from outdoors is more stunned and amazing of the area of building and plants is looking sharp of the area for the temperature weather of the sunlight of the natural the and nature of plants

The area that was to become West Palm Beach was settled in the late 1870s and 1880s by a few hundred settlers who called the vicinity "Lake Worth Country." These settlers were a diverse community from different parts of the United States and the world. They included founding families such at the Potters and the Lainharts, who would go on to become leading members of the business community in the fledgling city. The first white settlers in Palm Beach County lived around Lake Worth, then an enclosed freshwater lake, named for Colonel William Jenkins Worth, who had fought in the Second Seminole War in Florida in 1842. Most settlers engaged in the growing of tropical fruits and vegetables for shipment the north via Lake Worth and the Indian River. By 1890, the U.S. Census counted over 200 people settled along Lake Worth in the vicinity of what would become West Palm Beach. The area at this time also boasted a hotel, the "Cocoanut House", a church, and a post office. The city was platted by Henry Flagler as a community to house the servants working in the two grand hotels on the neighboring island of Palm Beach, across Lake Worth in 1893, coinciding with the arrival of the Florida East Coast railroad. Flagler paid two area settlers, Captain Porter and Louie Hillhouse, a combined sum of $45,000 for the original town site, stretching from Clear Lake to Lake Worth.
On November 5, 1894, 78 people met at the "Calaboose" (the first jail and police station located at Clematis St. and Poinsettia, now Dixie Hwy.) and passed the motion to incorporate the Town of West Palm Beach in what was then Dade County (now Miami-Dade County). This made West Palm Beach the first incorporated municipality in Dade County and in South Florida. The town council quickly addressed the building codes and the tents and shanties were replaced by brick, brick veneer, and stone buildings. The city grew steadily during the 1890s and the first two decades of the 20th century, most residents were engaged in the tourist industry and related services or winter vegetable market and tropical fruit trade. In 1909, Palm Beach County was formed by the Florida State Legislature and West Palm Beach became the county seat. In 1916, a new neo-classical courthouse was opened, which has been painstakingly restored back to its original condition, and is now used as the local history museum.
The city grew rapidly in the 1920s as part of the Florida land boom. The population of West Palm Beach quadrupled from 1920 to 1927, and all kinds of businesses and public services grew along with it. Many of the city's landmark structures and preserved neighborhoods were constructed during this period. Originally, Flagler intended for his Florida East Coast Railway to have its terminus in West Palm, but after the area experienced a deep freeze, he chose to extend the railroad to Miami instead.
The land boom was already faltering when city was devastated by the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane. The Depression years of the 1930s were a quiet time for the area, which saw slight population growth and property values lower than during the 1920s. The city only recovered with the onset of World War II, which saw the construction of Palm Beach Air Force Base, which brought thousands of military personnel to the city. The base was vital to the allied war effort, as it provided an excellent training facility and had unparalleled access to North Africa for a North American city. Also during World War II, German U-Boats sank dozens of merchant ships and oil tankers just off the coast of West Palm Beach. Nearby Palm Beach was under black out conditions to minimize night visibility to German U-boats.
The 1950s saw another boom in population, partly due to the return of many soldiers and airmen who had served in the vicinity during the war. Also, the advent of air conditioning encouraged growth, as year-round living in a tropical climate became more acceptable to northerners. West Palm Beach became the one of the nation's fastest growing metropolitan areas during the 1950s; the city's borders spread west of Military Trail and south to Lake Clarke Shores. However, many of the city's residents still lived within a narrow six-block wide strip from the south to north end. The neighborhoods were strictly segregated between White and African-American populations, a legacy that the city still struggles with today. The primary shopping district remained downtown, centered around Clematis Street.
In the 1960s, Palm Beach County's first enclosed shopping mall, the Palm Beach Mall, and an indoor arena were completed. These projects led to a brief revival for the city, but in the 1970s and 1980s crime continued to be a serious issue and suburban sprawl continued to drain resources and business away from the old downtown area. By the early 1990s there were very high vacancy rates downtown, and serious levels of urban blight.
Since the 1990s, developments such as CityPlace and the preservation and renovation of 1920s architecture in the nightlife hub of Clematis Street have seen a downtown resurgence in the entertainment and shopping district. The city has also placed emphasis on neighborhood development and revitalization, in historic districts such as Northwood, Flamingo Park, and El Cid. Some neighborhoods still struggle with blight and crime, as well as lowered property values caused by the Great Recession, which hit the region particularly hard. Since the recovery, multiple new developments have been completed. The Palm Beach Mall, located at the Interstate 95/Palm Beach Lakes Boulevard interchange became abandoned as downtown revitalized - the very mall that initiated the original abandonment of the downtown. The mall was then redeveloped into the Palm Beach Fashion Outlets in February 2014. A station for All Aboard Florida, a high-speed passenger rail service serving Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, and Orlando, is under construction as of July 2015.

I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn't show. -- Andrew Wyeth
You'd best watch your back in these parts, you never know when a Connor Family Member is out to yell at you to get off their property. It didn't used to be this way, and even here in 2024 we were guests of the railroad. It got good over a few years - a little too good to be true - before it all blew up.
Another typical scene in small, incorporated towns in rural Indiana is a property with an array of junk vehicles. These small town junkyards, usually with weeds growing high and trash everywhere, are often ignored by local leaders, either due to limited enforcement capabilities due to no zoning laws, or an unwillingness to enforce existing laws that prohibit the junkyards. Surrounding property values are diminished, rodents become a regular issue, and the quiet rural catastrophe begins to gather more and more steam.

Aquesta és una de les càmeres de cinema més especials que tinc, ja que fou emprada molt probablement a les guerres de Corea i Vietnam per les forces nord-americanes.
Es tracta d'una càmera de 16mm (en casets) model KF-4(1), propietat del govern americà. De fet és la versió militaritzada (bàsicament de color verd fosc i negre) de la Bell & Howell 200 Autoload, que feia servir casets Kodak de 50 peus (15 metres aprox.). Pel numero de serie, aquesta sembla fabricada cap als anys 50, tot i que sembla que ja n'hi havien a finals de la II Guerra Mundial. L'objectiu f1.9 / 1" també data d'inicis dels anys 50.
Sembla probable que en concret fos una càmera de la USAF, pel numero de contracte especificat a la placa militar. Això també encaixa amb el seu magnific estat (sembla nova).
Amb tot, la arribada fou "accidentada" i quan vaig obrir el paquet hi havia dins la càmera una peça solta, justament el engranatge mobil que encaixa amb el caset. El motor funcionava perfectament, però així era inutil. Per sort vaig poder obtenir un manual de reparacions en pdf, i vaig comprar un clon "civil" (la B&H 200TA) per tal de obtenir la molla que em faltava, aixi com practicar el desmuntatge de la carcassa. Ara la meva KF-4(1) sembla funcionar perfectament!
====================================
This is one of the most special film cameras I have, as it was most likely used in the Korean and Vietnam wars by American forces.
This is a 16mm (magazine) camera, model KF-4(1), owned by the American government. It is actually the militarized version (basically dark green and black) of the Bell & Howell 200 Autoload, which used 50-foot Kodak magazines. From the serial number, it appears to have been manufactured around the 1950s, although it appears that they were already in existence at the end of World War II. The f1.9 / 1" lens also dates from the early 1950s.
It seems likely that it was a USAF camera, given the contract number specified on the military plate. This also fits with its magnificent condition (it looks new).
However, the shipping was "accidental" and when I opened the package there was a loose part inside the camera, precisely the retractable drive gear that conects to the magazine. The motor worked perfectly, but it was useless without this link. Luckily I was able to obtain a repair manual in pdf, and I bought a "civilian" clone (the B&H 200TA) in order to obtain the spring I was missing, as well as practice disassembling the camera. Now my KF-4(1) seems to work perfectly!

A property of liquids such that their surfaces behave like a thin, elastic film. Surface tension is an effect of intermolecular attraction, in which molecules at or near the surface undergo a net attraction to the rest of the fluid, while molecules not near the surface are attracted to other molecules equally in all directions and undergo no net attraction. Because of surface tension, the surface of a liquid can support light objects (such as water beetles on the surface of a pond). Surface tension is responsible for the spherical shape of drops of liquid; spheres minimize the surface area of the drop and thus minimize surface tension.
