A wattle weaved fence seemingly sitting there for no specific purpose (from what I could see). This wattle technique was apparently commonly used to make fences and hurdles for enclosing ground or handling livestock. The technique goes back all the way to Neolithic times.
The Golden Orb Weaving Spiders build large, strong orb webs with a golden sheen.
Golden Orb Weaving Spiders are large spiders with silvery-grey to plum coloured bodies and brown-black, often yellow banded legs.
Wlodawa, Poland, 2011
Very early morning trekking across frozen fields. I couldn't believe the amount of webbing everywhere...most of the field was covered in strands like this. Busy little spiders....lucky I don't have arachnophobia!
This is the beginning of a weave on my daughter's loom.

Cassidy finds new favorite places to lie down - often on top of....... Here she's on the bed next to me as I work, laying on the pillows woven by a very special family friend many decades ago.
This is another weavey one, an in-camera multiple exposure of two ICMs of a dried patch of bracken on a local hill. The camera was set to Lighten blend mode which keeps the lighter pixel from the two images. The ICMs were vertical and horizontal swipes respectively.
The bracken proved a good subject for this sort of weaving because of the fine detail of highlights. What attracted me to this image, in particular, is the way some of the original bracken is retained to give it an added textural quality and to hint at its provenance. I’ve also left the green grass in to give it more context…
Naturally (or should that be unnaturally?) I have played with the colours, tonal contrast and sharpening. But you really need to do it with these things otherwise they look very bland (and bland is not really my style lol). Hope you enjoy it anyway ?.
Thanks for looking. Happy 100x and weekend :)
The West Virginian, flying white flags, rolls west through Weverton, Maryland on a perfect September day.
Because I'm pretty sure Basket Weaving 101 would not look THIS complicated! LOL!
Found this gem at a recent sale- couldn't resist!
This is another fire study for my motion project. It’s a close-up image from my fireplace earlier in the year, about eight inches across - you can see a wood block at the top, the dark bit, and more logs at the bottom.
Like others I’ve done for this series it’s a ten image in-camera multiple exposure created using continuous shutter release over less than a second.
As previously you can see just how volatile the flames are. There’s a considerable variation over a short period.
I guess what I like about it (apart from the warm colours) are the woven textures in the image - an abstract complexity. That's why I'm getting a little repetitive lol...
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy 100x :)
[Handheld, continuous shutter release, ten-image in-camera multiple exposure.
The resulting jpeg was sharpened a lot using Clarity and High Pass/Linear blend, and had some tonal and colour work done on it using Curves, all in Affinity Photo.
Cinematic crop, with a close view of part of the camera image and some straightening.]
Headlight dimmed for a meet with 22A, lengthy double stack train 23G negotiates the S-curve and passes some iconic N&W color position lights on the outskirts of Wytheville, Virginia. Norfolk Southern's Pulaski District is home to a bastion of these ancient N&W signals, but their demise is coming sooner than later, as replacement signals were on site during the time of our visit.
I am spending the next few days in the Cusco, Machu Picchu area of Peru. It was a very long day flying yesterday and adapting to 16 hrs difference from Australia. Today, we flew to Cusco, climbed from 3,400m to 3,800m to the village of Chincheros for Incan handicrafts before descending to the city of Urumbamba for overnight. The high altitudes are affecting me a bit, but it is tolerable so long as one goes gently and drinks lots of water.
Day 18 of 31. Though it felt like Day 17 was extra long due to time zone changes.

Traditional weaving is an extremely important craft for Peru. The locals have been using woven garments and household items for thousands of years by now. And there’s even more to it. The native language of Andean people is Quechua, and originally it was an oral language, so Andeans needed some instrument to save and pass the stories, local history, and their thoughts and ideas to the next generations of just other communities. The woven textiles became a mean of communication between people and recording the knowledge.*

The 3rd longest tangent track in the US is currently 'broken' by this work zone for McCord Rd in Holland, OH near the east end of the tangent for a grade separation project. The underpass is pretty much complete and any day now they'll re-lay tracks over the new bridge and this temporary mainline shoofly won't be around much longer. On a pleasant July evening the NS PC Heritage unit is leading NS 21Q west through the shoofly at track speed. 7/5/16
