“We're here for a reason. I believe a bit of the reason is to throw little torches out to lead people through the dark.”

― Whoopi Goldberg

This year they done well my Torch lilies,

This is the bottom section of a small torch. The orange button is the on/off switch.

 

Thanks for visiting.

 

HMM...

Wind sculpted tree skeletons on Grassy Top, with an unsettled atmosphere above, clouds illuminated by the setting sun.

 

I will be away for a week wandering in the desert wilderness like Moses, though I don't anticipate seeing any burning bushes. I look forward to catching up with your images when I return.

Last light among the silent witnesses of Bandon Beach, Oregon.

 

Thanks for stopping by. Happy Friday!

Lazy & uninspired.

The clouds above Maughold Head Lighthouse catch fire as they reflect the first rays of light after the sun breaks over the horizon. One of the best spots to watch the sunrise on the island with its commanding and secluded view out of the vast expanse of the Irish Sea 🌅

The back of the house is pitch black in winter as there are no street lights, so it's always handy to keep a torch around. This small LED torch is always in my pocket and has lit the way up the back path on quite a few occasions.

It is that time of the year again

Macro Mondays 'EDC' (Everyday Carry) theme.

 

I don't take much with me on a regular basis but one thing that is always with me is this tiny led torch on my keyring. It's small but still a bright light when needed (I even used it to light Tasku for a photo on one occasion), and it's rechargeable.

 

The image measures a little under 2" in width.

- Kniphofia uvaria 'Traffic Lights'

 

- Kniphofia, also called tritoma, red hot poker, torch lily, or poker plant, is native to Africa.

 

Evergreen species have strap-shaped foliage up to 1.5 m (5 ft) long. All plants produce spikes of upright, brightly coloured flowers well above the foliage, in shades of red, orange and yellow, often bicoloured.

 

The flowers produce copious nectar while blooming and are attractive to bees. In the New World they may attract sap-suckers such as hummingbirds and New World orioles.

 

Kniphofia uvaria originates from the Cape Province of South Africa, and has been introduced into many parts of the world as a garden plant. It is hardy in zones 5-10.

A former modernist industry building where metal and aluminium frames for windows, facades and doors were constructed is being deconstructed. A worker is using a blowtorch to remove the metal support structure of the roof.

 

Two other captures of the demolition scene are here and here.

 

'Squeezing out sparks' is a pivotal album of Graham Parker and the Rumour. Together with the American and UK punk albums it turned out to be the way out of the stagnation and complacency of rock music of the 2nd half of the 70s (think symphonic and prog rock).

 

The soundtrack: Graham Parker-Mercury poisining, a track from the Squeezing out sparks album. A life version (35 years later) is here.

 

This is number 91 of the Gloriously dilapidated album and 93 of Tavira.
