The small town of Samer developed around the Abbaye Saint-Wulmer (founded in 668) and so the Flemish name for the town is still Sint-Wulmaars. The abbey meanwhile is in ruins.
Saint-Martin was erected within the 16th century. Houses are built directly onto the church´s western facade, so that the entrance of the church is now between the buildings.
Great new camera, terrible first picture :p
I apologize in advance for the likely hundreds of terrible photos I will be producing in the next week.
It's always the same
A window I can't see through
Don't think I'll ever do
It's covered in rain
Like me as I'm waiting for you
I'm not sure I wanted to
Like horses on a carousel never win but
always keep racing
Standing here got time to kill, watching
them a little oh
They don't know
All that I want is always to push forward
But since you've been gone
I just wanna push rewind
If yesterday could only be tomorrow
Whatever I do I always run behind
It's always the same
I'm starin at the ceiling
Don't know where to begin
All that I see
Just symbols with no meaning
They could mean anything
Like echoes in a hallway
my thoughts are always reflecting
Bouncing off the walls of our cold
and empty house and I still
Don't know
All that I want is always to push forward
But since you've been gone
I just wanna push rewind
If yesterday could only be tomorrow
Whatever I do I always run behind
If you could see how
my world is tumbling down
Oh how it hurts when you're not around
All that I want is always to push forward
All that I want is always to push forward
But since you've been gone
I just wanna push rewind
If yesterday could only be tomorrow
Whatever I do I always run behind
Same platform as the the Void Caster, with obviously different attributes. Feels neat getting back into things after not posting in here for like 2 years.
Same summer night, different picture. This really was the second of two great weekends with suites in Durham. The first was on a Thursday night and the next one on the following Sunday night. I really loved this room because it had this balcony. The best part is always waking up in my baby's arms :)
The same louse fly as in the previous post, shot from the side to show the flatness of this critter.
70 exposures stacked in Zerene Stacker, PMAX and DMAP.
1 sec, ISO200, 5.6:1, slightly cropped to straigthen the image.
Lid by two IKEA Jansjö LED lamps diffused by a single layer of ordinary copy paper.
The background is an autumn leaf.

On Tuesday 16/4/2024, 1421s (Bowmans rail empty RASP ore) is seen approaching Heaslip road (Direk, Adelaide) with the usual Rail first locos el63-EL55 in charge.
From July 2024 Qube took over this working (plus Balco) using RL's &/or G521.
Some sweet corn have different colors on the same ear
HÁ MILHO QUE TEM CORES DIFERENTES NA MESMA ESPIGA
Sweet corn (Zea mays var. rugosa, also called indian corn, sweetcorn, sugar corn, pole corn, or simply corn, is a variety of maize with a high sugar content. Sweet corn is the result of a naturally-occurring recessive mutation in the genes which control conversion of sugar to starch inside the endosperm of the corn kernel. Unlike field corn varieties, which are harvested when the kernels are dry and fully mature (dent stage), sweet corn is picked when immature (milk stage) and eaten as a vegetable, rather than a grain. Since the process of maturation involves converting sugar into starch, sweet corn stores poorly and must be eaten fresh, canned, or frozen before the kernels become tough and starchy.
History
Sweet corn occurs as a spontaneous mutation in field corn and was grown by several Native American tribes. The Iroquois gave the first recorded sweet corn (called Papoon) to European settlers in 1779. It soon became a popular vegetable in southern and central regions of the United States.
Open pollinated varieties of white sweet corn started to become widely available in the United States in the 19th century. Two of the most enduring varieties, still available today, are Country Gentleman (a Shoepeg corn with small, white kernels in irregular rows) and Stowell's Evergreen.
Sweet corn production in the 20th century was influenced by the following key developments:
* hybridization allowed for more uniform maturity, improved quality and disease resistance
* identification of the separate gene mutations responsible for sweetness in corn and the ability to breed varieties based on these characteristics:
o su (normal sugary)
o se (sugary enhanced, originally called Everlasting Heritage)
o sh2 (shrunken-2)
There are currently hundreds of varieties, with more constantly being developed.
Health benefits
Cooked sweet corn has significant antioxidant activity, which can substantially reduce the chance of heart disease and cancer."There is a notion that processed fruits and vegetables have a lower nutritional value than fresh produce. Those original notions seem to be false, as cooked sweet corn retains its antioxidant activity, despite the loss of vitamin C," says Rui Hai Liu assistant professor of food science at Cornell University. The scientists measured the antioxidants' ability to quench free radicals, which cause damage to the body from oxidation. Cooked sweet corn also releases increased levels of ferulic acid, which provides health benefits, such as battling cancer.[citation needed] "When you cook it, you release it, and what you are losing in vitamin C, you are gaining in ferulic acid and total antioxidant activity.
Compare this to my immediate prior post - same train, same spot, but look how different it feels just changing the camera angle?!
Normally after work in the morning I stop for breakfast (err dinner!) at a local cafe or diner. But I wasn't hungry this particular morning so figured I'd see if I could grab a few photos in the fresh snow. I figured I'd hop off the highway seeing if the rails on P&W's East Providence Secondary had been polished yet. Seeing that the flangeways were still full of snow I knew they hadn't made it down to Pawtucket yet so I back tracked up to Valley Falls yard where I found local PR-3 switching across High Street.
Here is the conventional view making for a nice urban scene here in my home state of RI.
GP38-2 was built new for the railroad in November 1980 and has spent her entire 39 years working in and out if this little yard.

Same place but 8 years later (see my other Pakistan set). Nothing has changed and similarly stunningly beautiful.

Yesterday morning i headed down to Seaton Sluice to meet up with the A Ramble with Amble gang as one of our members Cliff was over for a couple of weeks and was on a one man mission to capture every part of the Toon through his D90 eye piece :D Also a couple of new faces (Janet & Ed) would be popping along to meet up with many of the people who head out regularly with the group. The morning didnt look promising when i left the house but on arrival there was a wedge of colour on the horizon. After a quick blab and the arrival of the rest of the gang we headed down past the Kings Head Pub to the rocks at Collywell Bay where the majority of us pitched up while a few stayed up top or went to Sluice & Charleys Garden. After setting up with the Sigma 10-20 i added a Lee 0.9 Soft Grad and began to take approx 2 second exposures trying to capture a bit of movement in the receeding high tide. Only when i got home did i notice this freakish Scream like face in the water :O Its amazing how many times we see faces in cloud formations or in water but after talking to a friend about this we humans are programmed to see faces so maybe thats the reason :D
As ever it was a great morning with some great like minded people :) Its always great fun but the downside is i end up talking more than photographising! :/
Location info: Collywell Bay
Oh and a special thanks to great lad and photographer Dru, for the wake up call... 4 hours early ;) :P
Same process as described for the orange: This a slice of a Florida grapefruit outside in the sun clipped inside a vase filed with Seltzer water, which results in bubbles adhering to the grapefruit. Behind the vase is a colorful piece of fabric. All that is left is to point and shoot with a macro. This shot I process through HDR to enhance.

Same scenario, zoomed in quite a bit and still the detail is sharp. And in BW, the noise that is picked up has the look and feel of film grain.
