Pinhole GOOSE... Back to basics... No lens, shutter or viewfinder...

Stark skies, late October. The meadows of Forks of the Credit, Provincial Park. Ontario, Canada.

A common sight in Montana's very rural interior are these signposts at intersections with the names of the people who live on each road and the distance to each. This particular signpost is located outside of Winifred, Montana.

Blashford Lakes, New Forest

I don't know the name of this wildflower but it's very pretty and very delicate with its petals pointing in all directions, much like those signposts that say Sydney 878km, Perth 3,417km, South Pole 5,809km.

 

7 Days With Flickr - Flora (Fridays)

Taken on Uphill Beach, Weston super Mare on a yucky November afternoon. Managed to spend 30-35 minutes between storms photographing my favourite area of WsM.

I've had the swordfish since teenage years when it was the rage to collect glass animals. This was a present from a friend.

The signpost is a memento from our canal boat holidays, these can be found alongside the Trent and Mersey canal. During the war they were removed for fear of enemy invasion, since then they have been restored and replaced.

An exhilarating 90 mile route across the glorious high country of the Yorkshire dales from Saltaire to Appleby in Westmorland. Many that walk the route then return to Saltaire by railway along the stunning Settle/ Carlisle line.

Witham, Essex, England - 13th March, 2021

An unforgiving sea made the signpost all the more poignant.

Another old direction sign, this time in the village of Stoke Charity.

Familiar sights that ain't so familiar anymore.

Isn't this bird feeder fabulous? Our neighbour made this himself - I said he should market the design and make a fortune! It certainly attracts the birds and is also in a position that we can benefit from watching them too :))x

よく晴れた春の暑い午後、

高尾から城山湖に抜ける峠で休憩中に小学生の遠足に出会った。

引率の女性教諭が分岐に立って、次々と現れる子供たちを誘導しはじめた。

列が途切れたところで話をすると、小学6年生で調布から来ているらしい。

ちょうど自分とは逆のルートを辿るようだ。

昼から出かけてきた自分とは違って朝から歩いているという。

 

「そろそろ悪ガキたちが来ますよ〜」と女性教諭。

やはり昔と同様、悪ガキは後ろ、と決まっているらしい。

バスなんかの一番後ろに陣取るのも変わっていないようだ。

 

峠に勢揃いした「悪ガキ」たちは見た目も悪ガキだった(笑)。

10名くらいの彼・彼女は「ヤッホー!ヤッホー!」と高尾山に向かって叫ぶ。

方向が悪いのと自分勝手に叫ぶのでなかなかやまびこが返ってこない。

そこで「みんなで一緒に声を合わせてやってごらん」、と教える。

すると第一声目から見事に「ヤッホー!」とやまびこが返ってくる。

「うわー!初体験だっ」とみんな驚喜。それからしばらくは叫び放題。

後ろから見ていて大笑いしてしまった。

 

長居しすぎたのか女性教諭が「さあ行くわよ!」と悪ガキたちを促す。

その時お転婆そうなかわいい女の子がリュックをおろしガサガサし始めた。

「おーい、何やってんだよ、行くぞー」と悪ガキにも声をかけられている。

何かと思って木でできたベンチに座って見ていると、

リュックの中の袋から何かを取り出して自分に駆け寄ってきた。

「これあげる」、と銀色に光るものを手渡してくれた。

 

それはハイチュウだった(笑)。

Signpost in Preston

This signpost near the Irishman Creek Station is a well-known sight to photographers passing by.

The first Camellia Sasanqua. We usually don't see these until mid to late October. Thanks for the look.

The highest point on the Great Alpine Road, Mt Hotham.

Roach end...North Staffs

Out today with Pauls Pix 53 and ianbartlett for about a 6-7 mile wander around Battle.

 

I set us a brief for the day ... cameras in mono and square crop and use a lens you don't use very often. I went out with just a 45mm, which I haven't used for ages.

The sculpture "Signpost" on the Sava River levee shows women's legs and is a reminder of the women-only bathing area on the river that was there since the mid-1920s until the flood in 1964 destroyed it.

 

Taken with Pentax MZ‍-‍5 film camera in its panorama mode, with Tamron SP Adaptall‍-‍2 17mm F3‍.‍5 51B ultra-wide angle lens, on Silberra Pan 160 black and white film.

Developed in Adox Adonal, 1‍+‍50 dilution at 22°‍C and scanned with Plustek OpticFilm 8100 using VueScan.
