Scoping out some doves. He spooked the burrowing owls as well.

Antique cutter for hay and grain crops, soaring above Pinnacle Mountain.

It's in the "up" position, which the farmer would use when traveling but not cutting, turning a corner, or in storage. In this case, "in storage". Owned by a friend.

I think this is a Sharp Tailed Sandpiper, but am happy to be corrected.

Believe it or not, this was shot from the door of my tent. As you can tell from the light, I slept in, but it worked out. The barring on the longest head feathers is pretty indicative of a female sharp-tailed grouse.

There's something about the smell of newly sharpened pencils. It takes me back to kindergarten.

One of a few encounters I had with some sharp-horned beasts. Thankfully none showed any interest in sparring with me.

Note the Royal Navy Merlin helicopter which spent a good hour or so just landing and taking off from Predannack Airfield (a satellite airfield for RNAS Culdrose), looping out over Mount's Bay.

Or possibly a Copper's!

This is the front of a Photo Album which was probably made by Cecil Sharp following his visit to Winster on 4 July 1908.

This particular album is incomplete. There is another similiar Album in Winster Morris Dancers Set which was complete when these images were made (November 2008). The complete Album contains a display of six photographs (each 3" x 2") which have been mounted and glued down to expose the photograph. All of the photographs are reproduced in this Set.

The photograph on the back of the two covers is identical. It seems reasonable to infer that Sharp had a number of these Albums made up and that he may have sent them to various people in Winster.

Two of the images from the Album pages have been reproduced in this Set to illustrate the double page layout.

Sharp (or his assistant) took many photographs during his visit and many examples are included in this Set..

Sharp's visit has been well documented elsewhere but not on this site.

Some of his photographs have been published (before 1992) as modern postcards by the English Folk Dance & Song Society. Examples of some of these postcards are also included in this Set.

Edward Sharp started making confectionery in the 1880s. The Macaw was introduced in 1915 with the slogan "Sharp's Toffee Speaks for Itself". The Super-Kreem line was introduced in 1919. Sharp's became the world's largest toffee manufacturer. They were taken over by Trebor in 1961.

Wood work to show how sharp the Tamron 90mm 1:1 macro is.

I love this lens ;-)
