“Cannery Row in Monterey in California is a poem, a stink, a grating noise, a quality of light, a tone, a habit, a nostalgia, a dream. Cannery Row is the gathered and scattered, tin and iron and rust and splintered wood, chipped pavement and weedy lots and junk heaps, sardine canneries of corrugated iron, honky tonks, restaurants and whore houses, and little crowded groceries, and laboratories and flophouses. Its inhabitant are, as the man once said, “whores, pimps, gambler and sons of bitches,” by which he meant Everybody. . ."
John Steinbeck, "Cannery Row"
Half the boat it used to be. This magnificent chunk of rot and decay sits beside the road near Stockinish Pier, Isle of Harris. Looks like its been bitten in half by some mysterious creature of the deep.
Without question, discovering several young Hickory Horned Devil cats at Splinter Hill is the premier event of several years of caterpillar hunting for me! The opportunity to hopefully witness and document their progress is beyond compare! The current rainy weather has been frustrating... wanting to revisit them today, I set my alarm for 3:45 am to check the hourly weather... it didn't look worth going, so I texted Karen to that affect and went back to sleep... hours later, she called, saying a short window of opportunity appeared as the forecast updated! We rushed to Splinter Hill and had a couple of hours to hike and see these unearthly guys... and she found a 4th one as well!!! We made it back to the SUV just before the bottom fell out!
One of the problems with this "showcase" location is the veritable minefield of splinters it presents. One is so busy trying not to get snagged, there is a tendency to forget certain...proprieties. 😘
More tomorrow. If you want to see.....ask to be a friend. I'll be happy to oblige. 💕
Or "Still Life: Broken and Weathered Wood Railing with Bolt, Washer, and Pink Yarn" Now you know what to look for. Not to mention a bit of ice.
Went for a drive this afternoon to find a few good scenes for the Big-Stopper. Happened to turn the corner and noticed the remains of an old pier.
Shot with the Lee Big Stopper and 0.6GND soft.
There are numerous little towns all throughout the Texas panhandle region that are all but completely deserted....many, never recovering from the "dust bowl" era of the 1930's. This swing set was found along the side of a little abandoned stucco house.

Hawker Hunter Aviation's 'splinter' camo looks splendid on ZZ191 as she begins her runway overshoot on arrival at RAF Fairford.
The heat played havoc with trying to get sharp images, but I'm relatively happy with this one. Relatively...

Between this shot and yesterday's, there's but a fraction of a second difference. So little time yet so much has happened in the blink of an eye.
