Yet another shot from my first birding trip in Québec City.
There were a lot of people on the path next to the wetland, and nearly all of them had scopes. I saw some mighty huge camera lenses too. And hardcore photographers in camo.
As for birds... we saw/heard white-throated sparrows, ruby-crowned kinglets, song sparrows, ring-necked ducks (lifer), nothern pintails (lifer), american wigeon, and black-capped chickadees. I was most excited about the white-throated sparrow & the ruby-crowned kinglet. I think I'll be in love with bird song forever.
bruggen natuurparken rotterdam, footbridges, architect: schiemann weyers architects
Within the scope of maintenance measures, concerning a wide range of footbridges situated in nature-parks of Rotterdam, the municipality has decided to replace several of the seriously damaged bridges. The brief asks for a design approach being nearly invisible - a bridge blending into its surrounding. Second issue of the brief is to 'redesign' a standard prefab bridge, a catalogue-bridge having proofed its abilities.
For this reason schiemann weyers collaborated with Haasnoot Bruggen, one of the most experienced Dutch companies in the field of prefab bridges.
The design for the family of plank-bridges comprises two variable components - the 'platform' and the 'railing". These components are persistent concerning their formal appearance but the bridges are able to adapt and react to their specific context. Each bridge is clearly recognizable as part of a sequence and is at the same time unique in its finishing.
The railing is assembled of bamboo composite bars, a rather new and sustainable material, combining the features of wood (natural appearance) with the characteristics of synthetic materials (low maintenance).

epa02398565 Kuwaiti security evidence raises the fingerprints from the window that was shot during a crowd attacked the studio of Kuwaiti local private television station Scope in Kuwait City, 17 October 2010. The owner of the station said she had received threats to her life after the talk show Zain wa Shain ( Good and Bad ) was aired on Saturday. Kuwaiti newspapers have said the Information Ministry has accused Fajr al-Saeed of attempting to overthrow the government with Scope's satirical comedy show Sawtak Wasal ( Your Voice Has Been Heard ).

Cut deep into the heart and mind
A visual penetration even words could not define
Pain
The hurt can make one go insane
If you let it continue, it will hopelessly reign
When in despair
Could seem like no one can care
Could others relate?
Might seem like a lonely fate
If you're in pain
Read this poetic lane
Find peace in your strain
See the sun as you go through the rain.

LA-R15 Raven, AR15 Rifle Chambered in .22LR with LaRue LT-104 QD Mount and Nightforce 2.5-10X32 Scope.
October 07th, 2013
Finally mounted a Nikon P-223 scope with a Wilson Combat quick-release scope mount on my modern sporting rifle (MSR) and fine-tuning the sight-in at the 100-yard line at Frontier Sportsman's Club - Fountain range.
I did okay with iron sights at 100 yards (and beyond), but a good optic makes a vast difference in hitting small spots 100 yards and beyond.
Used hand-loads consisting of Lake City brass, 24.0 grains of IMR 4895 powder, CCI 41 small rifle primers, and some generic 55 grain blemished FMJ bullets. The results were sub-MOA at 100-yards with the Rock River Arms AR-15.
Timed, self-portrait early Monday morning...
We say "I love you" about 50 times a day, for about 8 years now. And we never tire of hearing it. However I think people around us sometimes gag.
Here is a Time lapse of one of my imaging session's on my trip to Galloway taken 07.11.13 with Canon 1000d and around 1900 frames.
These are the non-production elements I’ve acquired since my last collection post in August. This time, with the Dark Nougat 3701s and the Light Reddish Violet 4276b. ;)
There are fourteen more parts on their way that will receive their own post. Those, and the dozen or so parts I plan on purchasing throughout the year are some of the most recent parts within my scope. It’s very nice to watch your wanted list dwindle over time. :)
A photo of all 500+ parts would be difficult to capture, but I might be able to make that happen. Within their bags, maybe? That way, there’s at least a neater way to organize them. :P
My 13.1" homebuilt dobsonian telescope disassembles to fit in a regular suitcase. The telescope is fully motorized in Alt/Azm using stepper motors driven by Onstep. The red box in the suitcase houses the electronics for reading the mirror/air temperature, driving the mirror cooling fan, and operating the wireless microfocuser (all of which is done by an Arduino UNO board).
I rather like this image of a Barn Owl perched on a fencepost scoping the area for food. Again, its a 'bird in its environment shot' which is what I like to observe. Although granted, it is nice to get close up shots if it lands close to the public hides or to wherever i am at the time, it is special to be able to watch this bird in its natural habitiat. This really is a pleasure and in all honesty, i would much prefer to watch it at this distance - undisturbed - rather than attempt to get 'too' close for the ultimate close up shot (although i do indeed bang on about that from time to time). Taken on the morning of 27 July 2012, at 06.17am using my Nikon D70.
Pink cast for a week, after 3 weeks of open hole still draining... Dr is trying a cast to prevent movement so maybe the hole will close....
Argonne National Laboratory outside Chicago is the first science and engineering research national laboratory in the United States, receiving this designation on July 1, 1946. It is the largest national laboratory by size and scope in the Midwest. A multipurpose laboratory led since 2009 by director Eric Isaacs, Argonne maintains a broad portfolio in basic science research, energy storage and renewable energy, environmental sustainability, and national security. It is managed for the United States Department of Energy by UChicago Argonne, LLC, which is composed of the University of Chicago and Jacobs Engineering Group Inc.[3] Argonne is a part of the expanding Illinois Technology and Research Corridor.
The laboratory is located on 1,700 acres (6.9 km2) in DuPage County, 25 miles (40 km) southwest of Chicago, Illinois, on Interstate 55, completely encircled by Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve. When it was first established it was known as the University of Chicago's Metallurgical Laboratory (Met Lab), and it was previously located within Red Gate Woods. Early in its history, the laboratory was part of the Manhattan Project, which built the first atomic bomb.
Argonne National Laboratory had a smaller facility called Argonne National Laboratory-West (or simply Argonne-West) in Idaho next to the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory. In 2005, the two Idaho-based laboratories merged to become the Idaho National Laboratory.

The original idea behind the "Streets Of Dublin Project" ( www.streetsofdublin.com ) was to document the changes taking place in the City Of Dublin but the scope of the project has been expanded to include other cities, towns and villages throughout Europe. Recently I had the opportunity to visit the city of Belfast. Next week I visit Cork and towards the end of May I hope to visit Limerick.
Belfast is currently experiencing a tourist boom, being one of the most visited cities in the UK, and the second most visited on the island of Ireland. In 2008, 7.1 million tourists visited the city. There are numerous popular tour bus companies and boat tours running throughout the year. To further enhance the tourist industry in Northern Ireland, the Belfast City Council is currently investing into the complete redevelopment of the Titanic Quarter, which is planned to consist of apartments, hotels, a riverside entertainment district, and a major Titanic-themed attraction. They also hope to invest in a new modern transport system for Belfast, with a cost of £250 million.
Belfast expanded very rapidly from being a market town to becoming an industrial city during the course of the 19th century. Because of this, it is less an agglomeration of villages and towns which have expanded into each other, than other comparable cities. The city expanded to the natural barrier of the hills that surround it, overwhelming other settlements. Consequently, the arterial roads along which this expansion took place (such as the Falls Road or the Newtownards Road) are more significant in defining the districts of the city than nucleated settlements. Belfast remains segregated by walls, commonly known as "peace lines", erected by the British Army after August 1969, and which still divide 14 districts in the inner city.
All the international guides report that the people are very friendly and the city is very safe compared to other cities so if you get a chance you must pay a visit.
