Viewed in varied light. I hadn't known that dragonflies appear to have cartoon-like faces. But today I discovered that they can. Hat tip to the subject for perching long enough for me to be able to capture the image. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I hadnt known that dragonflies appear to have car.

Viewed in varied light. My spelling corrector knows me too well. I was trying to text that "We're having lunch" and it proposed that I meant to say "We're having Linux" instead. I'm guessing that I fat-fingered an "i" instead of the adjacent "u" on the keyboard and it took it from there, but I could easily be spending some time doing either. Links to this post.

Interest Empire: Counting nostalgically ... in octal
http://www.interestempire.net/2015/02/counting-nostalgically-in-octal.html
Viewed in varied light. Counting nostalgically . in octal. I hadn't touched homebuilt electronics extensively since the 1970s, when I'd built a microprogrammed central processor named Irving among other projects, and was intrigued with the idea of wiring together some newer components. I thought a Raspberry Pi. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Taking refuge in accumulated snowfall. Counting nostalgically . in octal. View my complete profile. Picture Window template.

Interest Empire: Taking refuge in accumulated snowfall
http://www.interestempire.net/2015/02/taking-refuge-in-accumulated-snowfall.html
Viewed in varied light. Taking refuge in accumulated snowfall. Within the last few weeks, the greater Boston area has received a record-breaking amount of snowfall from a series of storms. As part of a larger ongoing project. I've been collecting pictures from the observation tower at the Great Meadows. Next, on 26 January following about 8 inches of snow around the 24th:. And on 1 February, after perhaps over 30 more inches on the 26th-27th of January:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). This work is l...

Viewed in varied light. Naturally, the image quality isn't the same, but I think it's quite usable by my standards. Also, it's small and light enough to be reasonably wearable (and, hence, conveniently available) rather than haulable. I took it out for its first bird walk yesterday and was pleased to be able to collect this shot of a tree swallow peering out from its nest hole. Capable viewing, looking out from a small enclosure. I can appreciate that. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Viewed in varied light. Please Don't Feed the Dinosaurs! Window view this morning. I think the turkeys look positively prehistoric. It's notable that the small cardinal is the only bird getting at feeder seed directly, while the larger beasts below are exploring for leftovers in the snow. I wouldn't think that the thin, light feeder hanger would be much of a match for turkey power applied effectively, but strategy doesn't seem like their strongest point. Links to this post.

Viewed in varied light. Splendid unexpected failure mode example: London Walkie-Talkie building. See coverage, e.g., @ Bloomberg. Reflective glass, tapered focus, solar angle. What could possibly go wrong, and what situation might architects not have considered in their design? Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
