A common site in areas with ports, dock and harbours. Bollards are used to tie a ship up to the side of a dock and keep the ship in place. An anchor is ineffective as the ships may rotate around the anchor point. Timelapse videos of ships anchored in English Bay in Vancouver dramatically shows the movement of anchored ships as the tide enters and exits the bay.
This same fastening technique has other common uses. Here, a guitar tuning peg, resembling a dock bollard shows the same type of fastening of a cable (in this case a guitar string) to a post. This keeps the guitar string tight enough to create the desired pitch when plucked. It also provides a convenient method to tune the string to the desired pitch when the string stretches.
Salty sea spray however would damage a guitar tuning peg over time. It is advised to keep ones guitar tuning mechanisms dry at all times.
Nissan March - better known as the Micra outside of Japan, with some pretty heavy tuning. Photographed many years ago in Tokyo somewhere. This is a 1997-2002 facelift version, parked in front of a Nissan Elgrand.
An old vinyl record attached to a tree branch along the Mississippi River in Houska Park at La Crosse, Wisconsin. On closer inspection I discovered the album was “Hell Bent For Leather” by Frankie Laine, produced by Columbia Records in 1961.
The storm doth walk the seashore humming a mournful tune,
the wave with eye so pensive, looketh to see the moon,
their spirits meet together, they make them solemn vows,
no more he singeth mournful, her sadness she doth lose.
The worm doth woo the mortal, death claims a living bride,
night unto day is married, morn unto eventide.
La tempesta si aggira sulla riva mormorando un dolente canto,
il frangente con occhio pensoso, volge lo sguardo alla luna,
i loro spiriti si fondono, si scambiano solenni giuramenti,
mai più canterà lui dolente, e lei scaccerà la sua tristezza.
Il verme corteggia il mortale, la morte reclama una sposa viva,
la notte al giorno è sposata, l'aurora al vespro
Emily Dickinson, 1850
