This has been a great pot plant on the patio this summer. Just big enough for the bees to decide to bother with it even though there is only one plant. The bees working it are covered in pollen but they dont seem to collect it at all - working for nectar only on this.

The wonderful waterfall of Hengifoss (literally traduced by the hanged waterfall) in a long exposure shot!!
a little description of the fall and her red lines: Hengifoss is a spectacular waterfall which falls down 120 meters in a magnificent gorge.
It is located in Fljótsdalur and faces Hallormsstaður across Lagarfljót river.
At the top of Hengifoss there are basalt strata and sandstone beneath them containing fossilized tree trunks, which proves that the climate in Iceland was warmer during the Tertiary period.
The red strates are eruptions deposit through the centuries so there you can date more than seven eruptions.
A little beneath Hengifoss is another waterfall, called Litlanesfoss.
It is smaller but quite beautiful and lies in a columnar basalt setting. ( www.reykjavikcenter.is/ )
have a nice day dear friends!!

I've been going through old photo folders in search of cloudscapes to add to a new "skies" folder I can use for sky replacement. I discovered this previously unprocessed image from March of 2015 (a decade ago. sigh). It's been waiting a l-o-n-g time. 😀
I'm also making this post my first announcement that I've booked my next trip, and it'll be coming up fast.
I'm going on my trip to the "American South", Tennessee in particular, from May 29th through June 7th. I'll be flying into Memphis, staying three nights, renting a car, driving to Nashville, where I'll stay another three nights, then driving to Gatlinburg, the gateway to Great Smoky Mountain National Park, where I'll stay a final three days. I'll fly from Knoxville back home on June 7th.
Now I have to devour my guidebook and create my trip calculator spreadsheet, add many potential photo ops to my google maps saved folder, and pack! So I'll be off social media for pretty much the last week of May and the first week of June. Beale Street, Graceland, Grand Old Opry, Music Row, Centennial Park and the Parthenon, Natchez Trace, Chickasaw State Park, Smoky Mountains here I come! (Maybe even Dollywood if I have time.)
There's been lots of extreme weather in the South, including storms, floods and tornadoes, but hopefully I'll miss the inclement weather and if there are storms, (like in Idaho last year at almost this exact time frame) I'll get some great cloudscapes before and afterwards, like the one in this post! (I seem to remember, even though it was 10 years ago, that I took the day off work specifically to go photograph the clouds.)
EDIT: Explored 05/18/25 at 167. Many thanks to everyone who views, faves, follows, and comments on my images! 🙏🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖💖🎁🎁🎁🎁🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂😂😮😮😮😮😁😁😁😁
I've been trying to get a picture of a bee on this for ages. So often the ones I am familiar with have flowers that are a bit too high. These ones in Dundee were all at head height or lower. Made for an enjoyable 10 minutes with the camera! Such a beautiful heady scent too - i hadnt realised that before!

Helleborus x hybridus (Ashwood Garden Hybrids) 'Ashwood Fascination'
Another from Rowallane gardens yesterday - in the walled garden. Of the several different helebores in flower, this was by far the most popular one with the bees today. So worth taking note of if you are looking for a helebore that is good for bees. And it is a great looking flower and plant too.

Mr Spreadsheet,
Do you recognise this man? He is world famous for his use of spreadsheets and devising Itineraries, he can create a spreadsheet for anything you desire from your weekly household budget to the number of rivets per girder in the Forth Road Bridge, including where they were sourced and cost per thousand.
You see that number, 3003, well to this gentleman it’s not just a simple number on a Metrolink Tram, it is symmetrical, it has 4 digits (even number), it has 2 sets of 2 numbers (two 3’s and two 0’s), although the number 3003 is in actual fact an odd number by the time he is finished with it in a spreadsheet it would end up even, trust me. It is also a palindrome (reads the same backwards as it does forwards), there is no end to what he can do with this number; in fact any number. What this man can do with numbers and symmetry is just beyond belief.
So if you do recognise him could you please inform his family where you saw him,’Deansgate-Castlefield’ Tram Station. Oh and in case you are wondering who the TOG is, it’s Mr. Andy Rouse, my partner in crime for the day.
Not sure of the cultvar or species

At Rowallane Gardens on Thursday. I had the day off but needed to book this visit a week before as part of the crowd control Covid arrangements that the National Trust have had to put in place. Nice to see Rowallane again after a gap. In normal times i'd be here once a week.

Camera Obscura - I don't do crowds
At the end of the Seventies, the only professional microcomputer was the Apple II. Connected to a dot-matrix printer and equipped with a spreadsheet, a word processor and a draft database, it allowed freelancers to carry out the basic tasks of what was already called office automation.
For more, see :

A la fin des années soixante-dix, le seul micro ordinateur à vocation professionnelle était l’Apple II. Connecté à une imprimante matricielle et doté d’un tableur, d’un traitement de texte et d’une ébauche de base de données, il permettait aux travailleurs indépendants d’assurer les tâches basiques de ce qui s’appelait déjà la bureautique .

This Eucalyptus was planted as seedling that I was given in 2004. Then killed back to the ground in the bad winter of 2010 then surprisingly regenerated from the ground as 2 stems and now part of a crowded hedge. This plant is about 3 or 4 metres in height now. I think last year was the first that it produced flowers. I am really loving it this year! no idea what the species is.
edit - probably Eucalyptus pauciflora

I watched this girl for ages on Sunday working the oregano flowers. I have quire a lot of oregano in pots. You really have to have quite a lot of something in flower in pots before the honey bees will start to work it at all. They just dont bother with things that are not substantive.

A Day Trip to the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway for the Saturday of a 3 day Steam Gala,
As Usual, the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

Here, on my first Steam Heritage Railway Visit of 2022, no. 41241, an Ivatt designed and Crewe Works built Class 2MT 2-6-2T locomotive is ready to power the Shuttle which was operating between Keighley ad Ingrow West with a loco on each end to save a run round which is not possible at Ingrow West.

This week-end involved 2 Heritage Railways with the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.
Here, after arriving at Holt Station on the front of the Class 9F Double-Header, I got a photo of Loco 92203 - "Black Prince", a Riddles designed, Swindon Works built - BR Class 9F - 2-10-0
and WD 90775 "The Royal Norfolk Regiment" posing for Photos
before 90775 joined 8572 to form another Double Header.

The Wurzels - Golden Brown
Somewhere in the middle of Wednesday morning I peered through a mild headache at the list of half term jobs I'd jotted down in my notebook. I was feeling tired and bored to the end of my wits with the banality of work and endless deadlines. November is possibly the most intense few weeks of the entire year for me, and though it's the last time I have to go through it before half a lifetime of spreadsheets comes to an end, I'm not looking the slightest bit forward to it. Seriously, if you're considering accountancy for a living, I urge you to think again. If you're thinking of taking your accountancy skills into the world of education - just don't do it. Or at least don't stay forever like I have. Maybe I'm just suffering from burnout after more than thirty years of endless nine to five, but it is exceptionally tedious almost all of the time. I tried to talk my son into doing something more interesting for a living, but he ignored my advice and followed me into this world. I tried anyway.
What cheered me though was that there were ticks beside most of the items on this list. I read the entries one more time and noted that the scariest items were all marked as either complete or as far underway as possible. "At least when term resumes I've got a head start," I reasoned to myself, and with that came a rare moment of spontaneity. "Can you manage if I take a couple of days off?" I asked Katie, my wonderful deputy. "Of course. You need a rest." After all she has to look at me every day so she can tell better than just about everyone else when I need a break.
And so here I am, sitting at home with a small vat of coffee after a delightful Thursday adventure with Lee, which included an all day breakfast with what must surely be the best view from a supermarket cafe in Britain (Sainsbury's in Penzance if you need to ask) and a wander to a predictably people packed Land's End to make some test shots for Longships lighthouse, to which we'll return in more suitable conditions later in the winter. We certainly won't be returning while they try to charge us seven quid to park for an hour there anyway. We drove back down a road for half a mile and parked along a side road before walking back.
We'd planned to finish here at Sennen Cove in the knowledge that the high tide would bring some drama to the breakwater. It's always worth an outing when the sea is in a bad mood. What we weren't prepared for as we drove down the big hill into the cove was the sight of three figures leaping from the breakwater into the protected harbour area as a huge wave hit it. Surely we'd imagined it. Who'd do a crazy thing like that a day after a storm that had brought thirty foot high waves to the Cornish coast?
We hadn't imagined it. Four local lads, none of them older than about fifteen, spent the next hour clambering onto the narrow wall and leaping into the water beneath them at the moment each roller hit the breakwater in front of a large number of onlookers. It struck me that if any of them somehow ended up on the western side of the breakwater they'd be in terrible trouble, possibly with fatal results, but this thought didn't appear to have occurred to them. Maybe I'm just getting old - I suspect they do this a lot at high tide and they probably wait for days like this. I won't be trying it myself in any case.
Later on, when to my relief I'd counted all four of them leaving the scene and heading for home they were replaced by an enormous seal at the water's edge drawn here by a lone angler bracing his rod against the ever energetic flow beneath him. If there were any fish to be had, my money was on the seal. The light faded, the onlookers moved on, and with more than enough raw files to try and choose one from our work was done. It had been so much more fun than eight hours of staring at a computer in confusion. I've decided that once the worst of the next few weeks is done I'm going to have another long weekend too.
Happy Friday everyone - enjoy your weekends.

A looooong day in the office. A senior management team meeting. An HR review. Budget spreadsheets. A draft funding bid. Expense forms, IT troubleshooting when the damned computer freezes. And so on and on. So tired on the evening bus journey home, all I can do is stare zombie-like through a rain-streaked window.... and take photographs.

A Quick Trip to see the "Victor" and "Vulcan" together Event at North Tyneside Steam Railway - Stephenson Museum - I was lucky to get a lift to the museum while a friend had an abortive shopping trip (long queues) to a shopping outlet.
As Usual, the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.
403 - "Victor" was Visiting from the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway and meeting up with 401 - "Vulcan", a Home Locomotive built by the same factory for the "Victor" and "Vulcan" together Event at North Tyneside Steam Railway - Stephenson Museum.
Here, Visiting Loco 403 - "Victor" has completed the journey back from Percy Main station to Middle Engine Lane.

A weekend away started at the Great Central Railway at Loughborough with a visit to their Autumn Steam Gala.
As Usual, the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.
Here, a Crewe Works built LMS double header,is just coming out of the sheds.

Providence & Worcester 2215 leads Connecticut Southern train CSO-4 south on the Springfield Line at Hayden Station Road in Windsor. 2215 is one of the two "Super 7s" that were on the P&W roster. 2216 has already been shipped off to Ohio. I'd be willing to guess 2215 will be shortly behind. I guess it must make sense on the G&W spreadsheet.
On the frozen planet of X-M45, deep within the Septenpolus wilderness, lies the ancient Seed Vault.
This is my contribution to the community MFZ Advent Calendar that I'm "curating". Quite a time crunch to get it done by the due date, but if you are interested in participating, please sign up for a day (December 1st through 24th) on Google Sheets.
Happy Holidays!

Today (aptly) the WAH theme is computers. I am currently using up my annual leave by pulling together information on cornish chapels and churches (current and historic) to help me in the quest to photo them all (I am now collaborating with some national projects to do this, which is very exciting).
However, today, for some reason, I lost the entire spreadsheet for Kerrier district (2 days work). Not sure why, but it is not retrievable so I have had to start all over again!! Good thing it's a 'hobby' and i find it interesting!
this also explains my fairly minimal presence on Flickr - once the spreadsheets are done, I will be back properly!!
The bee is using 2 flowers to spread her weight. When she lands on one flower the stem bends under the weight and ends up against the top of the wall. Pale cream pollen load clearly illustrated.
This will eventually go on the botanically sorted spreadsheet at:
