From I-84 Westbound, this is the partially used stack interchange carrying traffic to/from CT-9. Originally, ConnDOT had proposed to build CT-9 north of Farmington and would have been I-291, a proposed bypass of Hartford. For more information, visit www.kurumi.com/roads/ct/xc-stack.html. The picture here is my own, the one on the linked web page was taken by its creator (notice how mine has a shadow from the EzPass thing).
South Stack is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular lighthouses, South Stack Lighthouse. It has a height of 41 metres (135 feet). It has a maximum area of 7 acres.
Until 1828 when an iron suspension bridge was built, the only means of crossing the deep water channel on to the island was in a basket which was suspended on a hemp cable. The suspension bridge was replaced in 1964, but by 1983 the bridge had to be closed to the public, due to safety reasons. A new aluminium bridge was built and the lighthouse was reopened for public visits in 1997. Thousands of people flock to the lighthouse every year, thanks to the continued public transport service from Holyhead's town centre.
There are over 400 stone steps down to the footbridge (and not, as local legend suggests, 365), and the descent and ascent provide an opportunity to see some of the 4,000 nesting birds that line the cliffs during the breeding season. The cliffs are part of the RSPB South Stack Cliffs bird reserve, based at Elin's Tower.
The Anglesey Coastal Path passes South Stack, as does the Cybi Circular Walk. The latter has long and short variants; the short walk is 4 miles long and takes around two hours to complete. Travelling from the Breakwater Country Park, other sites along the way are the North Stack Fog Signal station, Caer y Tŵr, Holyhead Mountain and Tŷ Mawr Hut Circles.

I must say I listen to music whenever I can and in fact I still have a few of my old CDs lying around!
Flickr Lounge - Weekly Theme (Week 19) ~ Stacked ...
Thanks to everyone who views this photo, adds a note, leaves a comment and of course BIG thanks to anyone who chooses to favourite my photo .... Thanks to you all.
All of my old CDs stacked up together. There are more than 250 disks, but I now have all the music moved onto my computer and placed on my iPod. It's so convenient to carry ALL of your music in your pocket!
Now I just need to find some room to store all of these old discs...

Messing around with focus stacking in Photoshop (manually). This is from four photos. It looks like it's going to take some practice...

Gone, this was for photographic purposes before I went and got rid of it all this morning. *heavy sigh* A few twenties with a lot of stuff below :)
A stack of Thanksgiving pumpkin pie pancakes. They tasted really good, but I think the pumpkin was too moist and so when it looked like I had enough liquid in the recipe it was actually too "wet" 'cause the pumpkin (water) didn't bond stuff together like the fattier butter and egg that the recipe calls for. I thought about this beforehand but figured the cream and egg in the pumpkin pie filling would be enough. I think the recipe is a solid idea, but needs some refining.
Hm, looks like I had to focus on the background. Alas.
Former Adirondack Power and Light plant at Amsterdam, NY on the Erie Canal just upstream of lock E10. The canal follows the Mohawk River here.
As a teen, I traveled the Erie Canal and was fascinated by this plant as we passed on the boat. That was in the late 70's and it was not in use then ether. The 1923 edition of Babcock & Wilcox "Steam, Its Generation and Use" shows an earlier version of the plant consisting of 2 stacks and ending at the third window from the water intake house.
Photographed using a NIkon f with a Nikkor 80-400 VR lens (no, the VR does not work on the F :) Exposure by sunny 16.
These look like the smoke stacks of some ship from the past... no idea as to the history of these structures. They must have ridden the seas some time carrying people and goods alike.
I just liked the contrast between the huge metal structures and the Chinese fishing nets & water in the background...

Trying the idea of the stacked, staggered blocks as a kind of Zentangle tm string, but definitely needs work...
South Stack Lighthouse, Anglesey.
South Stack is set in a spectacular location to the north-west of Holyhead. The lighthouse acts as a waymark for coastal traffic and a landmark and orientation light for vessels crossing the Irish Sea to and from the ports of Holyhead and Dun Laoghaire.
History of the lighthouse
In 1645 when lighthouses were privately owned, King Charles II was petitioned for a patent to build a lighthouse on South Stack. The request was refused. However, 143 years after the original petition, Trinity House leased South Stack island and construction of the lighthouse commenced. On 9 February 1809, the station's oil lamps, designed by Daniel Alexander at a cost of £12,000, were first lit. In 1828 an iron suspension bridge was built to replace the rope catwalk that originally linked the lighthouse to the bottom of the 400 steps down the cliff face.
This was one of the many changes that have taken place at South Stack since 1809. The lights regularly became more efficient and in 1938 electric power replaced the oil that powered the lamps. In 1964 the iron bridge was taken down and a new one of aluminium was put up in its place.
The lighthouse was automated in 1984, and the keepers withdrawn. Today, the lighthouse is monitored and controlled by computer link from Trinity House Operations Centre in Harwich, Essex.
Stacking Experiement.
After this one similar phot few days ago, I tried more of that, but with a bit more control, so digital base photos. Not every subject is suited, but I think this is a variant of „multiexposure“ I like better that the 2 or 3 overlays you have usually. But, honestly, I don't know whether I will put more time in this.
I ended up with 44 pairs of buttons that I can package tonight for Stitches West this week (I have well more than 100 pairs, but the remainder need more sanding/buffing/glazing/whatevering).
The most recent buttons are by far my favorite - less experimental - I was finally *getting it* (yay)!
I'm looking forward to more dedicated (and RELAXED) button time next week!

This is my redesigned stacking machine:. The camera is continuously moved but very slowly moved during the shooting. The speed can be adusted by varying the voltage between 3V and 12V. Furthermore, two worm drives provide 2 different rpm for each voltage. Thus, the speed of the camera movement can be varied between 4.35 hours and 3.8min for 100µm distance (100µm is a typical distance for a flat btterfly wing). The actual stacking step width is adjusted by an interval timer.
With the slowest speed setting one can realize average step widths of a mere 0.05µm!
