The long white structures that look something like matchsticks are the male part of the flower called the stamen. The top of the stamen release pollen which is caught is the golden, hooked stigma in the hairy cone above the stamen. The pollen is then fed down to the purple ovaries below. At the beginning of the fertilization cycle the ovaries are encased in ranks of stamen which can be seen on the right side of the image. When seeds are formed, the stamen fall off which can be seen in the next image, Magnolia 3. (#2 of 3)
Met these badmen in the Pavilion Gardens one evening, pretty decent sound system on wheels powered by a caravan battery.

IES Rio Gallego , Zaragoza, October 2, 2013 .
We're living through the last years of interesting topics regarding classic traction in freight traffic on Hungarian rails. Most recently, the Békéscsaba hub of Rail Cargo Hungaria (RCH) got a BR285, which has already started working on the nearby servicing trains starting the 22nd of July.
Yet – very rarely – you can bump into crazy things, mostly thanks to the general bad shape of vehicle maintenance and planning at MÁV-Start. On a slow May afternoon a friend of a friend, working as a dispatcher was scrolling through the planned trains for Line 50 in the system when he noticed that the freight service from Baja-Dunapart was not showing a Class M62, nor the grey diesel TRAXX in the traction box, but a Class M44 shunter.
Could be a typo... But what if... Well, after phoning around half the loc inspectors and RCH dispatchers of Transdanubia, the info was pieced together, that if one of the Sergeis won't be passed back up by early morning to Dombóvár from Pécs, then yes, the little shunter will have to do instead. Not as it stood in the system; sending the M44 out as far as Baja, to return with an – even if empty –, longer train on the hilly Line 50 would be risky.
So RCH tasked its shiny and boring diesel with that job, and sent the Bobó to take care of the other task of the day; bringing nine empty wagons to Komló next to the three already there, and returning with as many as they could load by afternoon. Armed with this knowledge, we set alarms for around three o'clock and checked to see on the mapper if any of the M62s moved.
By 5:30 we were already through the shittiest gas station coffee I've had in a while, and soon enough we were each waiting eagerly near Mecsekjánosi after choosing our locations for the first pics. The rest is history! More pictures from this day here and here.
Another precipitation maker heads inland for a Memorial Day Weekend storm. Possible snow for the Sierra Nevada Mountains as low as 6,000 feet above Mean Sea Level.
I've posted others from this area in the past. But what attracted me to this scene is the contrast provided by the reflected sunlight on the right side of the image. As opposed to the uniformity of the previous images. You can let me know what you think.
The Tungnaa braided river system in the Icelandic highlands creates beautiful abstract patterns in the mud when viewed from the air. Sunlight reflected from the water and wet mud helps create interesting contrasts throughout the landscape. The river derives its color from the glacial silt it picks up as it flows from the Vatnajokull ice cap toward the ocean.

IGNIS - Micro-SUV:
es fährt sich überraschend gut auf der Landstraße bei 110+ km/h und auf unbefestigten Straßen
Obwohl er immer wieder als Stadtauto erwähnt wird.
Lkw und und größere Autos können auf der Autobahn - wie mit einem kleinen Tiger - ohne Probleme überholt werden, wenn man mit seinen Eigenschaften vertraut ist.
why:
ignis has the one of the best power to weight ratio,
i love it on Hills Road.
- Leistungsgewicht : 10.1 kg/hp
it speeds up and up like a 650 Suzuki motor cycle!
-
I do the FASTEST LAPS which No other Indian cars can match it on Hills ,
with DUAL JET FUEL Injection, 16 valves!
4 seat Vehicle: Kleinstwagen Klasse mit 4 Sitzplätzen
Der kleine drehfreudige Ignis Motor beschleunigt fast "wie ein 650er Suzuki-Motorrad* !" - bis 6.200 Umdrehungen im grünen Bereich.
Ampelstart:
200 Höhenmeter:
1,5 km
Auf langer Steigung, bis zu 8%, schafft er von Tempo 50 - über 70, 80 bis auf 100 km/h -
im dritten Gang;
da staunen manche große und schwere SUV's.
Auch Karin hat gestaunt als ich ihr gesagt habe sie solle Gas geben, damit der hinter ihr sie nicht überholt.
Auch mit zwei Personen ist er noch ein sportlicher Berg-Kraxler.
Das vermutet man nicht!
*650er Suzuki-Motorrad bin ich mal gefahren

This irrigation system(i think this is old style) was taken at the country side same day i took the hay bale shots~
When i was taking this photo, there was a car driving toward me, then he stopped the car infront of me and asking me with his smile what am i doing there~ He probably saw me from his house (his house just across the field) and drove there to see whether i was there tried to steal his irrigation system or not~~:-P

This is based on the concept art Alley 1C, from the Art of Rogue One book. It appears similar to moisture vaporators, so I assume it's some sort of water system.

Rail Express Sysytems liveried class 86/2 locomotive 86243 along with a Propelling Control Vehicle (PCV), head south past Heamies Farm, situated just north of Norton Bridge on the WCML.
Propelling Control Vehicle's (PCV) are former BR Eastleigh 1955 built Great Eastern Main Line Class 307 driving trailer cars, of which 42 were converted at Hunslet-Barclay in Kilmarnock between 1994 to 1996, so this very smart looking PCV could be one of the last converted on delivery.

This artist's concept puts solar system distances in perspective. The scale bar is in astronomical units, with each set distance beyond 1 AU representing 10 times the previous distance. One AU is the distance from the sun to the Earth, which is about 93 million miles or 150 million kilometers. Neptune, the most distant planet from the sun, is about 30 AU.
Informally, the term "solar system" is often used to mean the space out to the last planet. Scientific consensus, however, says the solar system goes out to the Oort Cloud, the source of the comets that swing by our sun on long time scales. Beyond the outer edge of the Oort Cloud, the gravity of other stars begins to dominate that of the sun.
The inner edge of the main part of the Oort Cloud could be as close as 1,000 AU from our sun. The outer edge is estimated to be around 100,000 AU.
NASA's Voyager 1, humankind's most distant spacecraft, is around 125 AU. Scientists believe it entered interstellar space, or the space between stars, on Aug. 25, 2012. Much of interstellar space is actually inside our solar system. It will take about 300 years for Voyager 1 to reach the inner edge of the Oort Cloud and possibly about 30,000 years to fly beyond it.
Alpha Centauri is currently the closest star to our solar system. But, in 40,000 years, Voyager 1 will be closer to the star AC +79 3888 than to our own sun. AC +79 3888 is actually traveling faster toward Voyager 1 than the spacecraft is traveling toward it.
The Voyager spacecraft were built and continue to be operated by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, in Pasadena, Calif. Caltech manages JPL for NASA. The Voyager missions are a part of NASA's Heliophysics System Observatory, sponsored by the Heliophysics Division of the Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters in Washington.

“It is of dangerous consequence to represent to man how near he is to the level of beasts, without showing him at the same time his greatness. It is likewise dangerous to let him see his greatness without his meanness. It is more dangerous yet to leave him ignorant of either; but very beneficial that he should be made sensible of both.” ~ Blaise Pascal

Fort Frederick Martello Tower (1846) is part of the Kingston Fortifications, which is an inter-related defense system located in and around the Kingston Harbour area in Ontario, Canada. A historically strategic site, situated at the mouth of the Cataraqui River, and overlooking the confluence of Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River. Construction of the fortifications began with the outbreak of the War of 1812 (a military conflict between Canada, a colony of Great Britain, and the United States) and, when several simple defensive works were hurriedly built around the harbour, including blockhouses at Point Henry, Point Frederick and Murney Point.
Following the war, Kingston evolved into a major commercial, political, naval and military centre in the colony of Upper Canada. In 1832, the Rideau Canal linking Kingston to Montreal was completed, thereby increasing the town’s role as a naval transportation hub. To protect the southern terminus of the canal, the British began to fortify the harbour with the construction of Fort Henry, situated atop Point Henry. The rehabilitation of Fort Frederick, and the construction of Martello towers including the Shoal Tower, Fort Frederick Tower, and Cedar Island Cathcart Tower was conducted in the mid-1840s. The Point Murney Tower was constructed in 1846 as part of the new naval defences during the Oregon Crisis of 1845-1846 over a Canada-US boundary dispute. These fortifications, along with the former Market Battery, were designed to provide the town, the canal, and the dockyards with a more comprehensive defensive system. Frederick Point is also the location of the Royal Military College of Canada established in 1874.
The Kingston Fortifications National Historic Site of Canada was commemorated as a national historic site in 1989.

La tour Martello du fort Frederick (1846) fait partie des fortifications de Kingston, un système de défense interdépendant situé dans et autour de la région du port de Kingston en Ontario, au Canada. Il s’agit d’un site historiquement stratégique, situé à l’embouchure de la rivière Cataraqui, surplombant la confluence du lac Ontario et du fleuve Saint-Laurent. La construction des fortifications a commencé avec le déclenchement de la guerre de 1812 (un conflit militaire entre le Canada, une colonie de la Grande-Bretagne, et les États-Unis) et, lorsque plusieurs ouvrages défensifs simples ont été construits à la hâte autour du port, notamment des blockhaus à Point Henry, Point Frederick et Murney Point.
Après la guerre, Kingston est devenue un centre commercial, politique, naval et militaire majeur dans la colonie du Haut-Canada. En 1832, le canal Rideau reliant Kingston à Montréal a été achevé, augmentant ainsi le rôle de la ville comme plaque tournante du transport naval. Pour protéger le terminus sud du canal, les Britanniques ont commencé à fortifier le port avec la construction du fort Henry, situé au sommet de Point Henry. La réhabilitation du fort Frederick et la construction des tours Martello, dont la tour Shoal, la tour Fort Frederick et la tour Cathcart de Cedar Island, ont été menées au milieu des années 1840. La tour Point Murney a été construite en 1846 dans le cadre des nouvelles défenses navales pendant la crise de l'Oregon de 1845-1846, à la suite d'un conflit frontalier entre le Canada et les États-Unis. Ces fortifications, ainsi que l'ancienne batterie Market, ont été conçues pour doter la ville, le canal et les chantiers navals d'un système défensif plus complet. Frederick Point est également le siège du Collège militaire royal du Canada, fondé en 1874.
Le lieu historique national du Canada des Fortifications-de-Kingston a été commémoré comme lieu historique national en 1989.

KORF (Norfolk International Airport) - 09 SEP 2017
"Citation Niner One Five Romeo Bravo" from Teterboro Airport (KTEB) rolling out on RWY 5 after landing.
Une réplique du système d'aboiteaux dans le Centre d’interprétation du Site historique national du Canada de Grand-Pré, Nouvelle-Écosse (Nova Scotia), Canada.
Ce site et le Bassin des Mines dans la baie de Fundy forment un ensemble inscrit sur la liste du patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO depuis 2012 (WHL-1404). En effet, le paysage constitue un exemple exceptionnel de l’adaptation des premiers colons européens aux conditions de la côte atlantique nord-américaine, grâce au développement de la poldérisation agricole réalisée – à base de digues et d’aboiteaux (buses de bois pour l’évacuation des eaux) – par les Acadiens au 17e siècle et poursuivie par les Planters et les habitants actuels.
Fondé en 1682, Grand-Pré est rapidement devenu le grenier et un temps la principale ville de l'Acadie. Ravagé en 1704 et tombé aux mains des Britanniques en 1713, Grand-Pré fut victime de la lutte pour le contrôle de l'Amérique du Nord. L'ancien village acadien de Grand-Pré, devenu le symbole de la Déportation des Acadiens de 1755 grâce au poème "Évangéline - Un conte d’Acadie" écrit en 1845 par l’américain Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, a été aujourd’hui transformé en un vaste parc donnant sur les digues et les aboiteaux que les premiers colons avaient gagnés sur la mer.
La technique d’aboiteau utilisée à Grand-Pré consiste à protéger les marais situés en bordure de la baie de Fundy de la montée des eaux salées, à marée haute. Car cette zone asséchée à marée basse, appelée estran, est très fertile. Mais pour la cultiver, il faut la garder hors de portée de la mer en tout temps, et la dessaler. Pour ce faire, les Acadiens vont la drainer et ériger des digues qui empêchent la mer d’envahir l’estran à marée haute. Ils vont ensuite poser des aboiteaux à travers ces digues, c’est-à-dire des écluses munies d’un clapet actionné par la marée. Ce dernier se ferme sous la pression de la marée montante et empêche ainsi l’eau salée de pénétrer dans le marais asséché. Avec le retrait de la marée, le clapet s’ouvre pour laisser passer l’eau de pluie et l’eau douce qui viennent des terres environnantes jusque dans la mer.
