taking a sample for a test run.
I like how it sits better with each wear, taking the form of my wrist.
It wasn't until I made the black sample, that I discovered a threading error with eight threads. So I made some repair heddles, cut this sample piece off, then retied and made one more full repeat to make sure there was nothing else. I thought I might continue with the grey and yellow (see comparison a few photos down), but I think I prefer the grey and natural.
brought to our Connections retreat at Sybil's this month...I could not resist photographing them because of the interesting secondary pattern the four tiny pieces made.
I took this class several years ago, when it was taught by Eileen in London, Ontario ...and I made a similar sample piece.
Eileen lives in British Columbia.
ESA’s Rosalind Franklin twin rover on Earth has drilled down and extracted samples 1.7 metres into the ground – much deeper than any other martian rover has ever attempted.
The first samples have been collected as part of a series of tests at the Mars Terrain Simulator at the ALTEC premises in Turin, Italy. The replica, also known as the Ground Test Model, is fully representative of the rover set to land on Mars.
With the drill completely retracted, the rock is dropped into a drawer at the front of the rover, which then withdraws and deposits the sample into a crushing station. The resulting powder is distributed to ovens and containers designed to perform the scientific analysis on Mars.
The Rosalind Franklin rover is designed to drill deep enough, up to two metres, to get access to well-preserved organic material from four billion years ago, when conditions on the surface of Mars were more like those on infant Earth.
Rosalind Franklin’s twin has been drilling into a well filled with a variety of rocks and soil layers. The first sample was taken from a block of cemented clay of medium hardness.
Drilling took place on a dedicated platform tilted at seven degrees to simulate the collection of a sample in a non-vertical position. The drill acquired the sample in the shape of a pellet of about 1 cm in diameter.
Rosalind Franklin’s drill retains the sample with a shutter that prevents it from dropping out during retrieval. Once captured, the drill brings the sample to the surface and delivers it to the laboratory inside the rover.
The drill was developed by Leonardo, while Thales Alenia Space is the prime contractor for ExoMars 2022. The ExoMars programme is a joint endeavour between ESA and Roscosmos.

These are samples for a wedding order. The bride has requested vanilla cupcakes filled with vanilla bean cream, topped with chocolate mint frosting and chocolate cupcakes filled with fresh raspberries, topped with nutella hazelnut cream frosting.
During our trip to the Biltmore Estate, we just had to visit Antler Hill Village when we learned there was so much to see and do!
And how could we not check out an opportunity to do a little wine tasting at the wine bar? With so many choices, it was hard to pick only a few.
Where there's tons of food to choose from, I guess sometimes you just need to sit and sample the goods, like this little chipmunk is doing, before you start carting it all off.
After all, you have to make sure to take the good stuff and leave the weird stuff like those ginormous walnuts for those pesky squirrels.

Sample image taken with a Canon EOS M3 with an EF 85mm f1.8 lens. These samples and comparisons are part of my EOS M3 review at:

This was taken with my new camera, the Sony Nex 6 and the kit zoom lens; 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS
I wanted a lighter weight 2nd camera, as carrying a full-frame with a huge pro-lens can really take its toll on my already damaged spine!
I don't think it will ever replace my full-frame for landscape work etc, however it is a dream to walk around with and once I get a decent lens for it (and judging by the above image), I think I may get some good results.
If anyone has advice regarding a good lens for it please let me know.
I am considering the Carl Zeiss 24mm 1.8 or the Sony 10-18mm f/4 but leaning towards the CZ.

A revisit to this abandoned house somewhere in Germany. Better light and less waiting around for sunrise helped the morning, mostly shot this time with the 50mm and covered a few other bits.
