Welsh Wonders Marvel in Merthyr; Merthyr Mayhem – The Review
Thirteen professional boxing bouts and the debut of four of Wales’ top talents had set the scene for Saturday 23rd July at Merthyr Tydfil Leisure Centre. Sanigar Events had once again put on a stacked bill of bouts with a number of Wales’ best prospects and biggest names right now.
We had Swansea boys Sonny Lee and Kristian Touze make their professional debut, along with Treharris’s Gavin Gwynne.
Boxing Media UK sat and witnessed some fine performances and some even finer wins.
Buckle up tight as the ‘Merthyr Mayhem’ was set to unfold on a warm night in the South of Wales

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.
Adapted from words to eat by.
No, I didn't eat the stack...
...er, I did eat 5 of them. Four were pretty much around the same time period and the 5th was a late night snack as my mum was eating miniature financiers. I also ate ice cream.
I ATE 500000 CALORIES TODAY. SHOOT MEEE.
On an unrelated note, my kitchen at home is one of the worst places to take photos of food. Besides that the lighting isn't so good (one of the fixtures doesn't work), we have a glass table. It LOOKS cool, but it doesn't provide a nice surface to take photos on (unless you want a photo of the floor) and we don't use tablecloth. We also need nicer tableware, hehe.

Looking at the books during a party held the day before the grand (general public) opening of the Minneapolis Public Library. This party was for the Friends of the Library -- people who donated money toward the project. Man! What a great party! Drinks, food, live music. It was a fantastic evening.
This is a stacked image of 3 HDR photos. You can see that I have deliberately included the sunlight glare, which appears to be like another planet in the sky or as a ring around the windmill. This is an experiment to see the result of photo stacking. Obviously, it hasn't been executed well, but never the less wanted to showcase the effort.
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.
You have to maneuver this box cutter blade from right to left, and then from back to front, aligning the string holding the prize you want between the blades. Thing is, the machine says "String may not cut the first time." It's written on the machine that it may not work even if your aim is on target. And yet, this machine got more action than Stacker. It was mindboggling.
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.
some people very patiently stacked these rocks on the beach. ten minutes later the tide rolled in and these were obliterated by waves
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.
Proof that stacking on comet vs stacking on stars does make a difference, even for slow-moving comets.
This is comet C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy) on December 22, 2013.
My stacked image of 21 sub-exposures seemed a little flat, so I had a go with it in Photoshop.
Actually, I went a little crazy, and this is the result of layering five copies of the original stacked image, using the Overlay blend mode, and setting subsequent layers to reciprocal opacity (i.e. layer 2 at 1/2 [50%], layer 3 at 1/3 [33%] and so on. After layer merging I pulled up the levels again, perhaps a third of way across from the right. At least it pumps some colour into the proceedings.
