No way to access the keys and, even if I could, no way to get them into the lock or even to pick the lock without it being obvious I'd cheated.
this is to show that this little blue duck eraser is well under the 3" parameters for my MM posting today.
for the next 2 weeks i'll be featuring those duckies who've not gotten much view time, so be prepared for multiple pictures in a day.

Yes - Locked again about 30 hours ago and about 4 days still to go . . . .in theory.
I'm sure it'll end up being longer though.
I checked the reliability of the calculated values for focus stacking by STACKSTEP
In MODE 1 I have checked by comparing the length of the step and aperture calculated by STACKSTEP under the condition CoC 30 micron versus the values provided by ZERENE.The results are shown in comment 1 and the fit between the two curves blue (ZERENE) and red (STACKSTEP) is very good.
In MODE 2 I did a sequence of stack at 11x using: Mitutoyo 10x/0.28 + Gerogon APO 210/9 with steps between 5 and 30 microns
As visible in comment 2, images obtained with steps of 5 and 10 microns in order to maintain the global CoC between 30 and 40 microns don't show bands or signs of sensitive degradation while, above these values bands and loss of resolution are increasingly evident.
Referring to the graph OTF (Optical Transfer Function) we can see that there will not be significant improvements by reducing the length of the step below 5 microns indeed the curve OTF (blue) is very close to the diffraction limits for the system (red curve).
In my stack when possible I try to keep a CoC between 25-30 microns and the OTF curve around 50% at 30 lp / mm

After verifying that none of the 16 000 angry truck drivers were
blockading the road to Tiwanaku, we set out for a very fun day at the
ruins!
We grabbed a city bus/van to the cemetery district and then got into
another minivan heading to Tiwanaku. After waiting around for a while,
we set off, driving out of the city through the neighbouring
municipality of El Alto and then through the stunning Altiplano with
views of snowy mountains above the city. We chatted with a couple of
English people, also spending the day at the ruins. It never takes long
for people to think that the gulf islands are one of the weirdest places
they've ever heard of.
We hopped out of the van outside the ruins and bought some cookies for a
snack before entering the main site. It was almost deserted and
absolutely spectacular. We started by exploring Akapana, a large pyramid
made mainly from earth that was thought to have been the centre of the
city. Then we visited the semi-subterranean temple with carving of faces
jutting out from the walls. They are thought to represent the gods of
the cultures conquered by the Tiwanaku. Then, we spent a long time
oohing and awing over the incredible architecture of Kalasasaya, the
sacred centre of the city. The stone work was incredible, and it's
especially amazing in a culture without iron tools. There were ornate
doorways and statues, and a very sophisticated aqueduct system. We also
saw a huge mud alter that's still used for Aymara ceremonies at the
site. Our last stop in the main complex was Putini, which is thought to
be a burial ground. By this time, buses full of tourists were arriving,
but we managed to avoid them as they started to explore the site.
Next, we visited the Museo Litico which houses many of the statues
uncovered during the excavations of Tiwanaku. They were all incredible;
the Pachamama (or Mother Earth) statue was 7.3 meters tall and covered
from head to toe in details carvings. The style of lots of the statues
resembles totem poles, so that was a cool link between distant cultures.
It was past noon by now, so we decided to venture into the town of
Tiwanaku to find a cheap place to eat. After a delicious meal of soup
and rice, we found a store selling treats to the hoards of
turquoise-sweater-wearing school kids. We bought ice cream and then
headed towards the second complex of ruins: Puma Punku. We were the only
ones there for most of the time and it was magical. There was some
impressive stonework and it was super cool to walk around the earth
pyramid and see it from all angles.
Finally, we visited the ceramics museum, which was very busy with tour
groups. It was still cool though, to see the pottery and a few textiles
that had been used in the site.
Tired after such a fun day, we got on another mini-bus and headed back
to La Paz.

[Ectopsocus McLachlan 1899: 176 (IT: 7) spp]
FLVOR of this species in IT. Conspecific sympatric ♀, dorsal and sx side.
The order Psocodea contains 7 soo. and 11,000 spp. Phthiraptera are believed to have evolved from within the infraordo Psocoptera, despite their greatly differing appearance.
Ectopsocus petersi differs from the closely related E. briggsi and E. meridionalis in having more extensive, darker spots at wing vein ends; ♂♂ can be recognised by better developed tubercular areas on 8th tergite, with a median tubercular area instead of E. briggsi comb-like structure (a comb-like structure is present on 9th tergite in both spp) and by phallosome asymmetrical mediodistal sclerite, possessing only one pair of horns. Colouration of E. petersi is darker than the parthenogenetic E. meridionalis. Currently, E. petersi is one of the most common Psocoptera in BE and NL. However, there is no historical material present for E. petersi, although E. briggsi is well represented in historical collections. Also, no historical records have been published from other countries, indicating that E. petersi was first introduced to EU in the British Isles and is now gradually colonising the rest of EU. However, it is unclear where this species originates from.

Norio verifying no one else is in his chigura/cat house before he jumps in (in Kitahiroshima in May of 2019).
"Flight verification vehicle A 14-135 support assembly Command Module optical alignment installation - overall view left side relative to plate. (085-2)(SY) (103) MSO. Bldg. altitude chamber"
So, I assume it must be M-11, and in its roll as flight verification vehicle, it's being used to test/confirm fit & function of the gizmo that'll be used to install, test(?), calibrate(?) the sextant & telescope? In the altitude chamber because of the delicate optics of the guidance & navigation system? To mitigate introduction of airborne debris/contaminants?
If so, I would've expected the Command Modules to arrive with that option package already installed, and maybe just the floor mats to be added at KSC. Along with of course, filling the tank(s) with gas.
NO actual idea. But that thing looks really cool, it's got a great art-deco sci-fi look to it, even the color of it is a 50’s sci-fi smoooooth.
Looks like most everything - RCS thruster orifices, windows, hatch(?), access panels(?) on the exterior of the Command Module are either decals or painted on.
Dinosaur tracker Ray Stanford describes the cretaceous-era nodosaur track he found on the Goddard Space Flight Center campus with Dr. Robert Weems, emeritus paleontologist for the USGS who verified his discovery.
This imprint shows the right rear foot of a nodosaur - a low-slung, spiny leaf-eater - apparently moving in haste as the heel did not fully settle in the cretaceous mud, according to dinosaur tracker Ray Stanford. It was found recently on NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center campus and is being preserved for study.

Mark arrived half an hour earlier than booked (he just texted us to let us know without putting pressure on us). We were ready so we started ahead of schedule. Mark is a lovely man, really helpful and he handled everything with care. We finished earlier than planned. I cannot recommend him enough. Really amazing!

Well-maintained van with plenty of space for my colleague and I to ride up front. Unbelievably awful traffic in WC1 (not helped by no-entry signs which meant we had to go a long way round) which delayed our arrival by half an hour but Mark dealt with it intelligently and patiently.

Mark was the utmost professional. He was extremely accommodating and helpful during our move. His chirpy and ‘can do’ attitude went a long way and he made the move very easy.
I would very highly recommend Mark to anyone moving in the near future.

No complaints about the service at all – polite, pleasant, respectful. Perhaps at booking time it would be better to get a more accurate idea of the real time the move will take. I knew I had quite a bit of stuff and wasn’t sure 2 hours was enough – it certainly wasn’t – so would appreciate a better way to book the correct time – instead of paying a lot extra to conclude the move. Not Mark’s fault at all, but it ended up costing more than I really wanted to pay – the half hourly extra charge mounts up very quickly!

Mark was very good, my only criticism is that the gloves that he wore to carry the furniture were dirty and therefore left hand and finger marks on my mattress. This is not a complaint because the marks will come off with a solvent. I am only mentioning this so that in future he ensures that his gloves are clean in case he lands up having to move furniture for a pedantic old fart who may not view the problem with the same ease as I did. Otherwise I would recommend Mark as a helpful gentleman. Well done Mark!

Despite my comments below, please be assured that the driver was very friendly, polite and professional, the van was very clean, and the job was completed successfully.
There seems to be a lack of transparency in how some of the companies operate and sub-contract work out to other drivers. This wouldn’t be such a problem except that some of the delivery detail hadn’t been passed on and caused a problem for the lady receiving the delivery.
Judging by the emails I have showing different companies and names for the same job, it seems that the driver (listed independently on this site) was sub-contracted by the company I had actually made arrangements. (This also meant we had a transit van turn up when I had requested a small van – very roomy for less than a dozen small boxes!) It seems that they hadn’t passed on some delivery detail which led to the lady receiving the delivery having to ask the driver to bring the boxes down to the lower ground floor of the building and he initially refused. However, credit to him, he did cooperate and the delivery was completed successfully. There were some other details that he was not clear on e.g. he thought I was travelling with him when I hadn’t indicated that on my order.
My other issue was that the driver called to say he was on his way 2 hours earlier than I had booked him for; however, when I explained that it wasn’t possible and that I had booked for a specific time, he agreed to revert to the scheduled time.
Also, I was told that in addition to my credit card payment online, the congestion charge would need to be paid to the driver in cash because this site does not allow for that to be taken into account at time of quote. This needs to be considered…
All in all, the job got done although not as smooth as I would have expected.

After verifying that none of the 16 000 angry truck drivers were
blockading the road to Tiwanaku, we set out for a very fun day at the
ruins!
We grabbed a city bus/van to the cemetery district and then got into
another minivan heading to Tiwanaku. After waiting around for a while,
we set off, driving out of the city through the neighbouring
municipality of El Alto and then through the stunning Altiplano with
views of snowy mountains above the city. We chatted with a couple of
English people, also spending the day at the ruins. It never takes long
for people to think that the gulf islands are one of the weirdest places
they've ever heard of.
We hopped out of the van outside the ruins and bought some cookies for a
snack before entering the main site. It was almost deserted and
absolutely spectacular. We started by exploring Akapana, a large pyramid
made mainly from earth that was thought to have been the centre of the
city. Then we visited the semi-subterranean temple with carving of faces
jutting out from the walls. They are thought to represent the gods of
the cultures conquered by the Tiwanaku. Then, we spent a long time
oohing and awing over the incredible architecture of Kalasasaya, the
sacred centre of the city. The stone work was incredible, and it's
especially amazing in a culture without iron tools. There were ornate
doorways and statues, and a very sophisticated aqueduct system. We also
saw a huge mud alter that's still used for Aymara ceremonies at the
site. Our last stop in the main complex was Putini, which is thought to
be a burial ground. By this time, buses full of tourists were arriving,
but we managed to avoid them as they started to explore the site.
Next, we visited the Museo Litico which houses many of the statues
uncovered during the excavations of Tiwanaku. They were all incredible;
the Pachamama (or Mother Earth) statue was 7.3 meters tall and covered
from head to toe in details carvings. The style of lots of the statues
resembles totem poles, so that was a cool link between distant cultures.
It was past noon by now, so we decided to venture into the town of
Tiwanaku to find a cheap place to eat. After a delicious meal of soup
and rice, we found a store selling treats to the hoards of
turquoise-sweater-wearing school kids. We bought ice cream and then
headed towards the second complex of ruins: Puma Punku. We were the only
ones there for most of the time and it was magical. There was some
impressive stonework and it was super cool to walk around the earth
pyramid and see it from all angles.
Finally, we visited the ceramics museum, which was very busy with tour
groups. It was still cool though, to see the pottery and a few textiles
that had been used in the site.
Tired after such a fun day, we got on another mini-bus and headed back
to La Paz.

FIshing weather. This is part of one of the nicest drives in Ireland.
This is Doolough or Doo Lough one of three lakes that make up the Delphi Fishery, it was called Delphi by the Marquis of Sligo who used to own the fishery.
Doolough is famously known for the "The Doolough Tragedy" see O Mac PRO link below.
On Friday 30 March 1849 two officials of the Westport Poor Law Union arrived in Louisburgh to inspect those people in receipt of outdoor relief to verify that they should continue to receive it. For some reason the inspection did not take place and the officials went on to Delphi Lodge – a hunting lodge – 12 miles (19 km) south of Louisburgh. The people who had gathered for the inspection were thus instructed to appear at Delphi Lodge at 7am the following morning if they wished to continue receiving relief. For much of the night and day that followed therefore seemingly hundreds of destitute and starving people had to undertake what for them, given their existing state of debilitation, was an extremely fatiguing journey, in very bad weather.

Today I was able to verify that some of the Murphy laws apply also to long exposure photographers. :-)
Earlier this week the sky was always awesome... I mean awesome under a long exposure point of view: sharp colors, nice clouds, soft wind... simply perfect for city long exposure. Unfortunately I'm only a part-time photographer: this means I'm in the office for most of the day, and I miss a lot of opportunities to take great picture when both light and sky are awesome. :-( This morning I decide to bring the camera with me and to take some pictures during the lunch break. I already knew what I wanted to capture, so I went out early and walked for 20 minutes reaching the building I had in mind. There was no "comfortable" place where to "deploy my army" so I decided to place my tripod in the middle of a closed road near a building yard. I thought: "All workers are having lunch, I have enough time for some long exposures... let's start". So I took a couple of shots just to understand if the point of view was fine and then I started to setup camera and tripod... settings, focus, filters (I stacked two filters B+W ND110 and Hoya ND400), tripod, remote... as soon as I was ready to hit the trigger, a car appeared from nowhere and needed to pass over where I placed my tripod... so I had to remove everything to let it pass... :-( I had to start again, focus (if you have ND filters you need to remove them to be able to focus properly!), filters, remote... and finally I started my first exposure. It was the first time I stacked two ND filters and I wasn't used to that... I thought that 5 minutes could be enough at ISO 100 and f/13 because it was 12.30, but I was wrong... totally dark picture! I had to reduce aperture down to f/8 and increase exposure up to 420s (7 minutes at mid day!!!) to be able to get something which was still at least 4 stop underexposed. Well... I wasn't able to get any more picture, because just after that a huge working machine started to move in the yard (just 10 meters away from me) and was impossible to keep the tripod steady for long exposure. :-( I was very upset, because it's about 3 months I'm waiting for a proper sky and timing to get there, and today I was unable to take a picture as I wished. Here is the best I could do with the only shot I had from today session. :-)

Oggi ho potuto verificare come le leggi di Murphy si applicano anche ai fotografi che usano esposizione lunga. :-)
E' già qualche giorno che il cielo a Milano è sempre molto suggestivo (fotograficamente parlando): nitido, azzurro, con nuvole ben "distinte", con quel po' di vento che sposta le nuvole... insomma, un cielo perfetto per chi ama fare esposizione lunga in città. Sfortunatamente (o forse fortunatamente... a seconda dei punti di vista!) faccio il fotografo solo nel tempo libero: questo vuol dire che durante il giorno sono in ufficio e non posso uscire quando voglio per far foto... perdendo occasioni quando magari ci sono luce e cielo giusto fuori. Già ieri avevo deciso di portare la macchina fotografica in ufficio, ma il cielo era terribile... grigio e umido, senza colore. Così, imperterrito, oggi l'ho portata di nuovo, sperando di trovare condizioni migliori. Per fortuna intorno a mezzogiorno il cielo si era schiarito, c'era ancora qualche nuvola ed un po' di vento che muoveva delicatamente le nuvole, così ho deciso di uscire a far foto durante l'ora di pausa pranzo. Sapevo già dove andare... sono almeno tre mesi che cerco di far foto a questo palazzo a forma di diamante, ma non ho mai trovato l'occasione giusta. In circa 20 minuti arrivo nelle vicinanze di questo palazzo, ma non c'è un posto decente dove potersi mettere per far foto... così mi piazzo all'angolo di un cantiere in un controviale chiuso. Inizio a fare un paio di scatti di prova per vedere se la composizione mi piace, apro il cavalletto, monto la macchina sul cavalletto, sistemo la messa a fuoco, metto il fuoco manuale, monto il telecomando, avvito i filtri ND... ad un tratto mi accorgo che c'è un cancello da cui deve uscire una macchina, proprio nel controviale che io pensavo fosse chiuso! Mi tocca spostare tutto per farla passare e sono costretto poi a perdere altri minuti preziosi per ripristinare tutto... Era la prima volta che usavo due filtri ND impilati, così ho fatto dei calcoli approssimati sul tempo di esposizione, convinto che fossero più o meno giusti... primo scatto di 5 minuti, completamente nero!!! Apro il diaframma fino a f/8 e decido di allungare l'esposizione fino a 7 minuti... scatto ancora molto scuro, almeno 5 stop sottoesposto!!! A quel punto il mio tempo a disposizione era quasi scaduto, così decido di fare un altro paio di foto con un solo filtro per accorciare i tempi... ma niente... giornata no! Il primo scatto mi viene bruciato... mentre inizio il secondo, comincia a muoversi un mezzo pesante enorme nel cantiere (d'altronde i muratori avevano già finito la loro pausa pranzo!) facendo tremare anche il pavimento sotto i miei piedi. Impossibile fare esposizioni lunghe a quel punto... così ho richiuso tutto e sono corso in ufficio visto che la mia ora era scaduta! Per cercare di far prima sono andato diretto ad uno stallo di BikeMI per prendere una bicicletta... ma ovviamente era fuori servizio... :-)
Questo è l'unico scatto che sono riuscito a lavorare in post-produzione... quello di 7 minuti sottoesposto... spero vi piaccia lo stesso. :-)

This is my first time out with my camera in 2019, I only had an hour or so down at Aberdeen Harbour this afternoon, this little beauty has always tied up in berth when I have seen her previously so was I was delighted to capture her coming into the harbour this afternoon .
WindPartner AS, owner and manager of Sea Puffin 1, and ESNA AS, the designer of Sea Puffin 1, are pleased to announce that Sea Puffin 1 recently conducted successful transit and push-on trials at the Horns Rev 1 wind farm off Denmark with a significant wave height of 1.5 m and has demonstrated record low fuel consumption (< 100 ltr/hr !) , all in accordance with expectations.
The world’s first daughter craft based on surface-effect-ship (SES) technology, supported by the Carbon Trust’s Offshore Wind Accelerator, has kicked off two months of sea trials at Vattenfall’s Horns Rev 1 and Ørsted’s Horns Rev 2 wind farms.
“We are very satisfied with the current results from the test of Sea Puffin and proud to announce that the vessel performs according to our specifications and expectations” says CEO in WindPartner, Mr. Morten Mellerud. “The performance was verified with in-situ wave buoy measurements”.
Dan Kyle Spearman, Manager of Offshore Wind Access Systems, the Carbon Trust, commented, “ I was onboard the vessel during testing and was impressed with the step up in performance for a daughter craft.”
Trygve H. Espeland, Naval Architect and co-founder of ESNA added, “We are very proud and satisfied to see that the vessel has performed according to our expectations, and especially the clear demonstration of a significant reduction in fuel oil consumption compared to standard CTVs”.
WindPartner is currently testing Sea Puffin 1 at Ørsted’s Horns Rev 2 and has a clear intention to continue to test in severe weather conditions and even up significant wave height (Hs) of 1.8 meters.
