a glass table in The Break coffe house. The morning sun shining through the window and then through the table, perfect timing.
This might just be the most significant tree stump in Tasmanian history. In 1976 on this very site a group of conservationists across all political groups decided to establish The Wilderness Society. It was to become the major organiser of the campaign to save the Franklin and Gordon rivers from being dammed.

This old tree (not a native) had been planted in the 1890s by the original settlers, and provided plenty of firewood when it was felled. But the stump became a symbol. Like the mythical Round Table in King Arthur's court, this table-like stump has been sat around for many years as environmentalists discussed their plans to protect the Tasmanian wilderness.
An outdoor table tennis table at work.
I was thrilled to discover this and planned to play with colleagues. Alas our office is by the beach the sea breezes play havic with the light table tennis ball.
Rusty ol' rail spikes, bolts, clamps, an old piece of rail and other bits piled on a table at the Niles Canyon Railway maintenance yard near Sunol, California.

My new kitchen table... got it on Craigslist (love it!)
I have a tiny dining area in my kitchen and this small Country French Desk/Table fits the space perfectly.
I got the pottery in my parent's home town in North Carolina. It was created by a local artisan, B.R. Hilton. He wasn't home the day we got to his shop. He had a note that said, write down what you buy, and leave the money. You're on the honor system!
A little more tilting, this time in Copenhagen :) Jacob is 8 weeks old tomorrow, can't believe how quick that time has gone!! Sorry if I'm a little behind with some of your Photostreams, I'm trying to catch up :)) Have a great weekend

21 October 2021, the Sandgate Chamber of Commerce hosts its "Long Table " sumptuous dinner of the Shorncliffe Pier on a balmy evening under a rising moon. Sounds a great thing to do but it isn't for the poor and I have been unable to determine from various web sites that it supports any deserving cause as these things usually do.
Well it looks fun anyway and if you drink too much, you can just expel your expensive meal and alcohol over the rail! Meanwhile, the pier is off limits to the common folk.
The table was happy as ever,
we drank tea: mom laughed
remembering, among others,
I don't know what old family gossip,
one of our cousins commented
— gracefully remembering the manners,
from an angry witness — the incident
that he witnessed on the street.
The children insisted, chattering,
to continue the interrupted game,
and the rest of us talked about all
the things that are spoken of with affection.

DO NOT RETURN BOX, Porter Islands (2, 2, 8) - Moderado
Well… I simply had to have another crack at those dark rocks that made me so unhappy in the Table Mountain panorama that I uploaded yesterday!!
A huge word of thanks to everyone who suggested alternative ways to retrieve the shadow details in those dark rocks! I suppose I should have bracketed my shots so that I could generate a second (lighter) panorama… or at least saved the lighter versions from the original RAW file… but truth be told… this panorama is 8300 x 4500 pixels in size and it was taking ages to process! So I suppose that the real reason why those rocks were so dark was because I was so LAZY!!!
Okay… now that I’ve got that off my chest… :)
I must admit that I am very happy with those dark rocks in this Vertorama!! Since my camera was on a tripod here… and since I did shoot several differently exposed images for the foreground… it was very possible (and quite easy) to layer-mask and blend the rocks part of a +2EV image with the original 0EV image! Heh heh… I actually had to darken the rocks a bit to make it all look natural!

Here is a vertorama (vertical panorama) of Table Mountain... with a field of Arum Lilies (Zantedeschia Aethiopica) in the foreground.
This was taken shortly before sunset... right beside a busy road... at the Rietvlei Nature Reserve in Milnerton.
Have a great weekend everyone!!
