Millipedes have very poor – sometimes nonexistent – eyesight, and sense their way around using their short, segmented antennae, which continually tap the ground as they move along; millipedes are very clean creatures, spend a lot of time cleaning and polishing various parts of their body, and have a special brush-like group of hairs on the 2nd or 3rd pair of their legs which they use to clean their antennae

American Giant Millipede – 2020SEP27 – Charlotte, NC
Look what I found! A Giant Millipede, Narceus americanus: it grows twice as large as any other North American millipede, a cylindrical millipede (distinguished from flat millipedes), dark reddish-brown or black, a red line on each segmente edge; like all millipedes, they have 2 pairs of legs on most segments, rather than 1 pair of legs on each segment (like a centipede).
Does it bite? No (uniike a centipede). What about cyanide? Although not this species, some secrete hydrogen cyanide, quite poisonous. Remember, millipedes are toxic – but as long as they are not eaten, hands washed after touching them, they're pretty harmless; however, many have a defensive secretion, benzoquinone, that can cause chemical burns on human skin, generally mild, but powerful enough to cause temporary skin discoloration, itching, and blisters – some millipedes’ secretions are much more powerful, though.
The division of an animal into repeating body parts is called segmentation, clearly seen in millipedes, the word meaning “one thousand foot;” despite that name, millipedes with the most legs come up shy of the 1,000-leg mark, only about 750.
Hope you enjoy the 10% of 99 captures I took here this day!
Ten years ago, the 2012 Olympic Games took place in Stratford in the East End of London. This week, to remember that great occasion I'm posting a number of photos taken over the course of the two weeks. Some are improved versions of shots already posted, but the majority are new images I've not previously shared with the public.
Apart from this shot, I entirely missed the grand parade of various British iconography because I was sat in the wrong part of the stadium to properly see it (they didn't go all the way around).
63_365 Grapefruit heart. The purpose of this 365 photo a day for a year isn't just to take a snapshot or a willy nilly shot just for the sake of shooting, It's an exercise to train your eye. Don't just look....see. Always have your camera ready looking for your next shot. With your camera always in hand, you learn all the buttons and what it can do. Try this, try that. Be creative. This is my 3rd time of doing this and I really think it has made me a better photographer. I now have a trained photographers eye and I see things everywhere I look. Even while eating breakfast. Most would have just eaten this little grapefruit heart segment without seeing it. I'm feeling the love of the goodness and all the flavor that this grapefruit is providing me

iss064e004312 (Nov. 13, 2020) --- The Russian segment of the International Space Station is pictured from an external high definition camera. At far left, is the Poisk mini-research module attached to the forward space-facing port of the Zvezda service module. Docked to the rear port of Zvezda is the Progress 75 resupply ship.
This is a little picture tutorial how I make my segmented beads. First I made custom colors and blended into a color gradient in a short thick plug that is easy to pierce with a narrow kitting needle. Then I roll it out around the needle to the length I want. The ends always flare out, so I pinch them with my fingers to close the clay around the needle. I always have to roll it again to make it round and symmetrical. Next I twist the needle gently and pull off the clay. I cut off the irregular ends and cut the bead into 5 or 7 segments. Gently re-roll it and place it back on the needle to bake. Then into the oven
The Ponte Vecchio ("Old Bridge", Italian pronunciation) is a medieval stone closed-spandrel segmental arch bridge over the Arno River, in Florence, Italy. It's noted for still having shops built along it, as was once common. Butchers initially occupied the shops; the present tenants range from jewellers, art dealers and souvenir sellers.
There is an old fence in the park which is home to lots of insects, I've spotted ladybird larvae, many different ladybirds, green shield bugs, red legged shield bugs, red spider mites, greenfly, spiders, various other aphids, alder beetles and today this tiny (about a cm long) caterpillar which I've failed to identify.

Base of spiral staircase within Alexandra Road Estate, South Hampstead.
The estate was designed in a brutalist style by architect Neave Brown and was completed in 1978.
I found me some rust. Yay!!!
I don't know if any locals have looked up when standing in the Southsea bandstand, but this is what you'll see.
Looks beautiful.

Day 5 (Segment 28)
Bridge site to Junction Creek Trailhead
Cruisin’ right along, I made it to Gudy’s Rest. A fantastic overlook with a bench honoring Gudy Gaskill, who made the Colorado Trail a reality. I stopped for a break and took in some of the final views. A very nice stop but Gudy’s bench was in the sun so I opted to relax on a rock bench hiding in the shade. Still very nice.
As hikers near the end of their journey, getting off of the trail is always on their mind and then how to get to an airport or bus station to travel home. Sometimes family and/or friends might meet them on the trail and provide transportation. Another option is to catch a hitch, which was my plan to get back to my car. Of course, I was hiking into a day hiking area, so any hiker encounters would be a possibility, since they would likely be parked at the trailhead.
Gudy’s Rest is about 4 miles from the trailhead, so I didn’t have too much further to go. And wouldn’t you know it, a couple of dayhikers arrived. Of course, now was time for my Yogi skills while chatting. (Yogi’ing is in honor of Yogi Bear who was always after a pic-a-nic basket. So, to yogi is to receive some food or other assistance from others who are interested in your trail tales.) They were very friendly and I was able to secure a ride from the trailhead! I just had to get there in time.
Now the goal was to make it to the trailhead by 2:00, when the friendly dayhikers agreed to pick me up. They were camped in a nearby Campground and not actually parked at the trailhead. It was after noon, so that would mean 4 miles in 2 hours. 2 miles an hour is definitely doable especially with the gentle terrain. Getting a ride and getting into town is motivation to move quickly. I did and made it to the trailhead about 1:35. I waited until they arrived and then enjoyed the short ride to the train station to my car. Thanks for the ride!
So that was it. Congrats to me for finishing the Colorado Trail! I started in 2015 and finished in 2021.

Testing out some into-the-sun sort of shooting with this lens...
I am fairly new to telephoto photography and love the way that being able to get in close can actually be quite liberating. I'm also a big fan of the way that a long zoom can compress perspective - one of the main reasons why I think this works as an image.
this is worth checking out View On Black
I'm going to be away from Flickr for the next few weeks getting married and then going to Africa for 3 weeks. Am taking 30gb of memory cards (aren't they cheap these days) so expect to see some pictures in November!
