...That’s why I’d Love to Hang my Hat in Tennessee.

 

A bit of a twist of the lyrics from George Strait’s 1987 Country Hit Recording : )

 

Last October, the Mrs. and I enjoyed a week in the Beautiful State of Tennessee. In addition to visiting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (a Bucket List item) we had a delightful day at the gorgeous Cumberland Mountain State Park located in Crossville Tennessee.

 

The Byrd Creek Bridge is the centerpiece of the Cumberland Mountain State Park. The seven span bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as part of the Cumberland Homesteads Historic District. The Byrd Creek Dam is the largest masonry structure ever built by the Civilian Conservation Corps.

 

Men of the Civilian Conservation Corps built this unsuspended bridge between 1935 and 1940, for a 30-acre impoundment of Byrd's Creek. Three thousand five hundred and fifty cubic yards of dirt and rock were excavated and the core, containing 8,000 tons of concrete, is faced with Crab Orchard stone for the 319-foot span. Seven spillways, rising 28 feet above the stream bed, carry the 18-foot wide roadway approximately, which is 16 feet above water level.

 

Cumberland Mountain State Park began as part of the greater Cumberland Homesteads Project, a New Deal-era initiative by the Resettlement Administration that helped relocate poverty-stricken families on the Cumberland Plateau to small farms centered on what is now the Cumberland Homestead community. The 1,720-acre park was acquired in 1938 to provide a recreational area for some 250 families selected to homestead on the Cumberland Plateau.

Tonsai Beach is the lesser known beach of Railay peninsula. At a length of around 600 metres, it runs on from Railay West, separated by a rock face at high tide, and faces south. Stuck between two high limestone cliffs, it can be reached by foot from Railay West at low tide.

Pic Épeiche juvénile (Dendrocopos major), Neuchâtel, Suisse.

Alors que Le Pic Épeiche mâle à la nuque rouge et la femelle la nuque noir, le juvéniles a une large calotte rouge et le bas-ventre dans les tons légèrement rosés plus clair, ou légèrement beige (suivant l’âge) que celui des adultes. Il faudra que la tête soit muée complètement pour voir apparaître la marque rouge à l'occiput qui caractérise le mâle de la femelle.

J'ai retrouvé dans mes placards des rouleaux de pellicules non utilisés ou des négatifs pour photo argentique et des films de cinéma 35mm de nos lointains voyages en Europe, Amérique ou Asie des années 80. Un retour vers le passé qui ravive de bons souvenirs et qui nous donne envie de préserver ces reliques pour ne pas qu'elles se perdent à jamais dans l'oubli. #Macro #MacroMondays #RetourverslePassé #BackintheDay

ADMIRE LA MERE NATURE AVEC TON COEUR

SMC Pentax FA 50mm F 1.4 + Kenko PZ Uniplus tube 25

El "frutas" vacio me permitió experimentar de vuelta a casa en el apeadero de Salbio, y al ver que las nubes no auguraban nada bueno decidí arriesgarme a probar con un encuadre diferente, adentrandome entre las secas ramas a buscar un hueco para poder fotografiar al tren que en breve iba a hacer acto de presencia..Éste fué el resultado...Regular, pero distinto! Sé que las ramas deslucen un poco la escena, pero la combinación de colores Tren-entorno resultó ser de lo más curiosa...Y la 335.015, aún con los logos de su antigua empresa puso la guinda.Actualmente, esta €4000 luce los colores corporativos de Continental Rail.Animo a tod@s...Ya va quedando menos para poder disfrutar de nuestra libertad individual!

Sending tons of love to everyone … I’ve been spending lots of quiet time in real life and SL, just losing myself in the creative process of crafting things that bring peace, trying to heal and strengthen my faith. I hope everyone is having a beautiful week, and that you are all blessed with joy filled moments, and pretty things in your camera lens. 💕
