I stumbled across this somewhat surreal scene in Downtown LA. I think it was some kind of training exercise.

10/05/2025 - String Rope Wire Cable
A few ideas rumbled around for this week's challenge , but then filling up the windscreen washer bottle the idea of the loom hit me and here is an exposed junction .
A cable harness, also known as a wire harness, wiring harness, cable assembly, wiring assembly or wiring loom, is an assembly of electrical cables or wires which transmit signals or electrical power. The cables are bound together by a durable material such as rubber, vinyl, electrical tape, conduit, a weave of extruded string, or a combination thereof.
Commonly used in automobiles, as well as construction machinery, cable harnesses provide several advantages over loose wires and cables. For example, many aircraft, automobiles and spacecraft contain many masses of wires which would stretch over several kilometers if fully extended. By binding the many wires and cables into a cable harness, the wires and cables can be better secured against the adverse effects of vibrations, abrasions, and moisture. By constricting the wires into a non-flexing bundle, usage of space is optimized, and the risk of a short is decreased. Since the installer has only one harness to install (as opposed to multiple wires), installation time is decreased and the process can be easily standardized. Binding the wires into a flame retardant sleeve also lowers the risk of electrical fires.
An obvious track this week from Acadaca ---
Hops are the female flowers of the hop species H. lupulus; as a main flavor ingredient in beer, H. lupulus is widely cultivated for use by the brewing industry.
Hop shoots grow very rapidly, and at the peak of growth can grow 20 to 50 centimetres per week. Hop bines climb by wrapping clockwise around anything within reach, and individual bines typically grow between 2 to 15 metres depending on what is available to grow on. When the hop bines run out of material to climb, horizontal shoots sprout between the leaves of the main stem to form a network of stems wound round each other.
Hop gardens consist of a regular arrangement of poles interconnected by wires. Every spring, the farmers add vertical wire ropes that are used by the hop plants for climbing. Here you can see how this is done with the help of three persons in a turret.

£500 Penalty for dumping rubbish, at the time I didn't notice the writing on the window.
Illicit rubbish dumping is out of control across the UK, perhaps our new Prime Minister could get the ball rolling on that one without making his rich friends even richer :-).

I am not done with my favorite abandoned house yet! Next project is a night shooting there with my flickr buddy Rajesh! Please check his stream, he has cool shots of this house too.
For the little history, this house was first built in 1854, and was known as "Tyersall House". In 1860, a Malay sultan took over the property and the house was demolished. The new house, Istana Woodneuk ("istana" means "palace" in Malay) was built in 1890 and completed 2 years later. In 1905, it was badly burnt because of faulty electrical wiring. This house has been abandoned since 1907.

-My Dad commissioned the carozza, and arranged the wirings, funded the garage for the carozza.
-Mom, embroidered the vestment for about 6 months, she also did the other vestments (except for the violet burdado) sayals, and capes
-My cousin for the arragement, additional inputs and ideas
-My brother for Good Friday metal works and half of the budget for Holy Tuesday Procession
-I just commissioned the new hair, good friday floral budget, jewelries and accessories and several other inputs
This salida really shows effort from my family :)
My dad really sacrifice his old dreams for the success of Betang's carozza.
I saw this as a possible series from the salvage yard -- the stripped away wiring from the old rusty doors. I tought this was pretty "different" and photo worthy.

Fresh from EMD, CP 7055 is being set up for service at St. Paul, MN, after being delivered the previous afternoon.
How anything electrical works in many parts of India defies logic. Complex entanglements of electrical wires hanging somehow on the utility poles in many of the areas I saw seemed to be the norm. How any of this works is anybody's guess. Tragically, there are over 10,000 electrocution deaths in India every year. (www.counterview.net/2017/09/electrocution-in-india-kills-...)
The 4th and supposedly final TEBC6 has found its way to Albia. A pal sent me some info on the slugs and all 5 that had notes associated with Relco Locomotives are now on the property. Another pal has told me that these will all come out with new [orange] paint jobs.

I would be most grateful if you would refrain from inserting images, and/or group invites; thank you!
Snowshill Manor was the property of Winchcombe Abbey from 821 until 1539 when the Abbey was confiscated by King Henry VIII during the Dissolution of the Monasteries. Between 1539 and 1919 it had a number of tenants and owners until it was purchased by Charles Paget Wade, an architect, artist-craftsman, collector, poet and heir to the family fortune. He restored the property, living in the small cottage in the garden and using the manor house as a home for his collection of objects. He gave the property and the contents of this collection to the National Trust in 1951. There are two aspects of Snowshill Manor: its garden and the manor house, which is now home to Wade's eclectic collection. The garden at Snowshill was laid out by Wade, in collaboration with Arts and Crafts movement architect, M. H. Baillie Scott, between 1920 and 1923 as a series of outside rooms seen as an extension to the house. Features include terraces and ponds. The manor house is a typical Cotswold house, made from local stone; the main part of the house dates from the 16th century. Today, the main attraction of the house is perhaps the display of Wade's collection. From 1900 until 1951, when he gave the Manor to the National Trust, Wade amassed an enormous and eclectic collection of objects reflecting his interest in craftsmanship. The objects in the collection include 26 suits of Japanese samurai armour dating from the 17th and 19th centuries; bicycles; toys; musical instruments and more. On 5 October 2003, the house was closed and its entire contents removed in order to effect a number of repairs. In particular, the electrical wiring needed updating, new fire, security and environmental monitoring systems were installed, and the existing lighting was improved. The house reopened on 25 March 2005.
