So. Um. Right.
This week's theme is Mental Health.
I don't really want to tell all of you lots of personal details, but I will say that getting outside and connecting with nature, with or without a camera, is really good for me.
And even better is doing physical work, outside, for the purposes of conservation. And it's not just me that thinks that: there's actual research.
I know I'm incredibly lucky to live in a place where there are rolling hills just a ten minute walk away, not to mention neglected hedges that need laying, but wildflowers will spring up anywhere that people don't spray herbicide, and they attract insects, which attract birds... You get the idea. Connecting with nature is good; whether that's fell running or car park botany.
P.S. THERE ARE NO DEADLY SPIDERS IN THE UK! If you're not in the UK and don't get our news - 7 schools have now closed due to the presence of a shy and docile spider species, Steatoda nobilis. I find it really upsetting that grown adults are this disconnected from the natural world. And if you're really worried about false widows, I invite you to come round and meet Genevieve who has lived in my sitting room all summer, eating flies. I will probably transfer her to an outside wall before the central heating comes on, but she is a very welcome house guest here.
Symbolic for 2022?

Sometimes I feel like we're a knot,
too tangled to be taken apart.

The rising full moon becomes hopelessly tangled in a PG&E trap designed to harness lunar energy. Man, those powerlines must be really strong.
Lens is the DFA 150-450mm plus 1.4x TC on the K3II. 1 sec exposure at f/7.1, ISO 800. The built in GPS embedded the precise coordinates into the EXIF.
Woodland sprites,
In aureate, tangled.
Do they dance at night?

On 5 January 2024, the administrator for the Flickr group "Natural PATTERNS, Shapes, and Textures (curated)" rejected this photo. The image is nothing if not depicting shapes and forms of a woodland. So, phooey!

One from my cell phone, which did a pretty good job adjusting the white-balance.
Please, no group icons. Please.
from the book Tangle Wood by Jeissica Palmer.
Its full with lovely images to color.
Colored with My Faber Castell polychromos.
I love this book, great to work with.
Es ist wie verhext. Die ganze Zeit hingen die Strippen rechts und links herab. Dazu endeten sie in einer Art Spannrollen. Es sah aus, als würde der dürre Turm Gewichte stemmen. :)
Aber kaum hab ich Glück mit dem Wetter und auch die Zeit, ... ist es schon wieder ein anderer Arbeitsschritt. Schlimm ist das ... :)
Just another frame of this fabulous catch arriving at its destination last summer. I am partial to vertical shots and I just kind of like the tangled mess of wires in this one.
With 45 minutes left before they go on the law South Shore Freight crew PF11 wheels around the curve at Bailey near MP 46.1, arriving at their destination with just enough time to pull the train in, cut away the power, and hop in the truck back to the shops to tie up.
The four unit set of South Shore units (SD38-2s 804 and 805 sandwiching GP38-2s 2002 and 2005) have 123 steel BNSF system hoppers of met coal from Fording British Columbia bound for Arcelor Mittal's Burns Harbor steel mill complex that spreads out for miles north of the tracks.
