SWELL Sculpture Festival. 'Stacked Chairs' by Alexander Piperides (Qld)
Stacked Chairs is an assembly of found chairs, portraying a column like structure. Although each chair has its own individual memory and function, they have become dependent on one another; the failure of one chair could result in the failure of the whole system. I would like to think of this similar to our current lives; where we are all at some stage or another, in the midst of various responsibilities, whether intentional or not. (the artist)
Sea stacks along the Redwood coast north of Ft. Bragg, CA showed well in the morning light on this day in October, 2024.
A westbound double stack train passes the Metrolink station at Riverside. A lone searchlight signal still guards eastward movements at this location.

Not my photo!
A friend of mine in America, Len, sent me this photo yesterday.
I told him that I think it’s a beautiful photograph and asked if it would be okay to post this and his tale on Flickr. He agreed.
I met Len a number of years ago. We both play ‘Words with friends’ (it’s like the game of Scrabble) on their app.
He’s a good friend, and we often message or email.
Len and his wife live in Montana in the summer, and Arizona in the winter.
Len:
“Sunset View from our humble abode of the smoke stack at what was the Anaconda Cooper Co. Smelter where they processed copper, silver, gold, lead and zinc. It was shut down in the mid 1980’s. The stack is over 900 feet tall and the largest free standing stack in the world and is now a National Monument.
When it was in operation I brokered the insurance on all 1600 employees families that worked in the plant and had a claims office in Anaconda just to handle this insured plan. It was a great time in my life and a lot of fun. Many dollars commission for my family over the years. Also a lot of lifetime friendships built as a result. 😁👍”

South Stack September 2024.
I think this was taken about half an hour after sunset, just before the pink colours "evaporated".
Taken during blue hour with a Fujifilm X-T5, 8mm f/3.5 lens, this isolated storm put on a good lightning show. I stacked 5x6s frames and lightened in Photoshop. The star trail above the thunderstorm reveals the 5 frames.

While wandering along the marina, I noticed these stacks of kayaks reflecting in the water. The reflection looked like a painting from my perspective.
The Snowbirds performing during the 2019 Penticton Peach Festival. In May 2020 one of the planes crashed in Kamloops, British Columbia after a bird strike during takeoff and unfortunately Captain Jennifer Casey didn't survive the crash.
Of course, I made a point to look for empty chairs and tea sets to photograph on the holiday....
A few of you seemed to like Zoey Van Goey yesterday, so here's another. Sadly, they are no more, but they left behind some good tunes. This one is "We Don't Have That Kind of Bread": youtu.be/W3h7nmL9PKM
A sluggish, wet bumblebee (species unknown) afforded me a close-up photo, shot on my smartphone, with a homemade macro add-on lens.
This is my first attempt at focus stacking. I took two photos with my phone, which naturally had two slightly different slices of the insect in focus. I manually aligned them in GIMP, and selectively erased as appropriate.
I know, some people do this a lot and are far better at it than me, but doing it for the first time did give a small sense of achievement.
Stacked up – The immense Elegug Stacks catching the last of the day's sunlight before the encroaching shadows envelope the coast..
Also known as Stack Rocks, it's really hard to get an impression of the scale of these two dramatic carboniferous limestone sea pillars from the cliff edge, even though they are some 150 feet high. Located on the on the dramatic and remote south west tip of Wales, access is only possible at certain times across the MOD Castlemartin military range.
The long exposure really drew out the colours of this breathtaking coastal scene.

An ancient hay stacker was abandoned years ago along the entrance road to Bear Lake National Wildlife Refuge in Idaho. Hay fields around the refuge provide food and nesting areas for ibis, sandhill cranes, and waterfowl

These massive Limestone Stacks provide home for nesting seabirds for part of the year. They are named after the Guillemot's that thrive here, Elegug being the Welsh word for them.
I visited 3 times during my weeks stay here and got very different conditions. This particular evening the light was pretty good, but the sky was spectacular. I tried a few different techniques, LE, Grads and this one with a circular polariser which gave more emphasis on that sky (Not to everyones taste I'm sure).
I had the place more or less to myself on all 3 evenings, which was a surprise. The dry weather had certainly killed off a lot of the cliff top foliage, but I did manage to use this hardy little plant to provide a modicum of foreground interest.
South Stack Lighthouse, the iconic view for anyone who goes to South Stack, I keep saying I have taken enough, but then think well one more...
My trusty magnetic measuring spoons, dressed up for Macro Monday.
I had the "clever idea" of putting different colors of water in each spoon, but ended up spilling it instead. But as I started to clean up, I noticed the spilled dye made great color reflections and --- voila!
The spoons are 2 inches long from front to back and 1.5 inches tall.

One of my favorite, more colorful stack trains on this route heads by the transitway with a sea of red stacks in tow. They will make a quick stop for a crew change at 44th Avenue before heading across the Staples Sub.
