A photo taken from near the base of a mature tree, looking in an upward direction. The crown of this tree has yellowish orange leaves during the autumn season. The trees around it still have green leaves, so the image looks a bit like a sea of colour surrounded by green. Patches of blue sky can also be seen around the top of the tree. The trunk of the tree is about one and a half feet in diameter. The photo definitely has an autumn feel to it.

Cabin life

Nothing to do. Just waiting for tea and watching the light go down.

#FensterFreitag #WindowFriday
#forest #photography

Photograph of the dark interior of a cabin, showing a small rectangular window through which a green coniferous tree is visible and in focus. To the right of the window is a two-shelf, rough hewn wooden shelf, out of focus, on which are stacks of plates, glasses, cups, and a pile of linens. Cooking utensils hang on the side of the shelf. The rest of the cottage is in darkness.

Cabin life, moments later

Nothing to do. Just drinking tea and deciding it's time to light a candle.

#FensterFreitag #WindowFriday
#forest #lake #photography

Photograph of the dark interior of a cabin, showing a large rectangular window through which a landscape of mountain, lake and forest is visible and out of focus. Below the window are hunting gun cleaning tools, with a clear plastic bottle, a rectangular container, and a plastic bag, all in focus. The rest of the cottage is in darkness.

#bloomscrolling #flowers #monochrome #blackandwhite #macro #photography

Black and white macro photograph of yarrow flowers, still open in October, composed of very small flowers in the centre and single-petaled flowers around the edges. None of the flowers are really in focus and some are blurred behind, with stems and foliage, giving a sense of movement.

#trees #autumn #fallcolors #autumnvibes #peaceful #birch #forest #road #photography

Photograph of a dirt road, partially covered in fallen orange leaves, bordered on either side by tall birch trees with very white trunks, which contrast with the yellow foliage still at their tops and with the smaller green conifers behind them. A cloudy white sky is visible through their canopy. This soft colour combination is my favourite of autumn.

A very beautiful leopard lounges gracefully very high up on a large tree branch looking up to a clear blue sky, its tail curling elegantly. The scene conveys the tranquility and beauty of the leopard on a very early quiet morning on the Okavango Delta in Botswana

The Linux project continues.

Bonus learning: you'd think older machines would struggle, but I've seen no post-install h/w issues on my 13-year-old MacBook Pro: wifi, bluetooth, ethernet, screen, touchpad, keyboard, speakers...

I suspect age is a benefit to a point, the Linux community having had more time to solve things, subverting Apple's planned obsolescence and urge to sell more regardless of environmental impact.

Here's a pic to celebrate.

Looking down a paved farm country sideroad in mid-October, the sky a bright blue with low cumulus backing the orange, yellow and red maples lining our route. As always, a few lonely telephone poles complete the picture, along with a foreground drive to some homestead just out of view on what in a few months will be tundra out this way - just northwest of Stratford, southwest Ontario.

Bright Smurf, Big Smurf (they can't hold you down)

#Fungi #Mushtodon #Nature #Photography #Smurf

A dense cluster of fungi growing on a rotting tree stump in a forest during autumn. The mushrooms are growing in layered, overlapping groups. Their caps vary in color, transitioning from a light yellowish-tan or golden-brown at the edges and in the center of the younger, upper mushrooms, to a darker, rich brown in the larger, more mature specimens below.

Many caps exhibit a slight concentric ring pattern or a change in color towards the center. They have a generally convex to flattened shape and appear smooth and somewhat moist or velvety.

The fungi are attached to a dark, textured wood surface, which is the tree material they are feeding on. The surrounding area is the forest floor, scattered with leaf litter in various shades of brown and yellow.

#52WochenFotoChallenge #Photography

A top-down view of a forest floor rich in dark, earthy tones and fall colors. A dense layer of fallen leaves covers the ground, primarily in shades of deep orange, rust, and brown. Scattered patches of green grass and dry, pale-colored plant material are visible.

Slightly above the center of the frame, a mushroom's domed, scarlet cap instantly draws the eye. The small, distinct white flecks contrast with its bright red color, giving it a storybook appearance. Near the bottom center is a smaller splash of vivid red. A ruby-hued bloom finds itself adrift on the forest floor.

I captured this image in an old museum on mid north coast, NSW, Australia.

Clothes washer technology developed as a way to reduce the manual labor spent, providing an open basin or sealed container with paddles or fingers to automatically agitate the clothing. The earliest machines were hand-operated and constructed from wood, while later machines made of metal permitted a fire to burn below the washtub, keeping the water warm throughout the day's washing.

The earliest special-purpose washing device was the scrub board, invented in 1797.

By the mid-1850s, steam-driven commercial laundry machinery was on sale in the UK and US. Technological advances in machinery for commercial and institutional washers proceeded faster than domestic washer design for several decades, especially in the UK. In the US there was more emphasis on developing machines for washing at home, though machines for commercial laundry services were widely used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The rotary washing machine was patented by Hamilton Smith in 1858. As electricity was not commonly available until at least 1930, some early washing machines were operated by a low-speed single-cylinder hit and miss gasoline engine.

After the items were washed and rinsed, water had to be removed by twisting. To help reduce this labor, the wringer/mangle machine was developed.

Smurfs Log: Me and my Dad

* I've been posting a lot about Mom recently. My dad passed away 33 years ago. He was the one who used to take the pictures around the house. While sorting my mom's house, I found this old picture of me and my dad 🥰

One of the "Things Left in My Mom's House..."
