Picture Of The Week (POW) Information and Submissions

[stratman]

if we could only get some steam under @stratman to post a photo here

Stratman only has a Kindle for a "camera" and you have to shoot it blind as the lens faces the same side as the image is shown on screen.

I'm good but taking pictures is a PITA, so, Hat me boy, you're on yer own.

PS - who knew The Hat's home county of Wicklow is where the Shillelagh Stick is made?

Here's a panorama of some formations a short stroll from my home...

 

[Emulator]

Interesting formations, I bet AA would have liked them. Is there any information on their creation?

If I were to post photos for the POW, it would be seen as favouritism by most, so management powers of persuasion discourage the “Moderators” from posting Pics, but sometimes we reluctantly bend the rules..

So, this Gander is supposed remain celibate...For all the good it does, because most of the Geese round here won’t produce as much as a Duck egg, and my powers of persuasion on Gander @stratman never seems to work either. (Equipment failure)

under steam...........

If it weren’t for @Ink stained Fingers and @turbguy, we’d have no Friggin eggs to post, and have to resort to the Mona Lisa on permanent display..

......and no mention of The Hat!!

Even @Emulator has noticed that I don’t have a Shillelagh.. Boy could I get everyone’s attention if I started to swing that about...
Now that’s what I call a real Sticky... .. excuse the pun @rodbam....

Normal Services will resume here... When we get more Feckin Photos...

 

[Ink stained Fingers]

I did some small upscaling and printed it as a 6 ft poster for the wall since it is such an impressive panorama

Is there any information on their creation?

Glaciers did the heavy carving and then wind whipped the elements for the details.

“Moderators”

"Moderator" - there, fixed it for you. Any others seem to be emeritus only.

If I were to post photos for the POW

Yada, yada, yada.

Do members give a rat's a? Probably as much as flossing daily.

Next Saturday, a very special "machine" (a fully restored and operational Big Boy) will be passing by my home...I'll see what I can capture to post here. Here is what she looked like before restoration.
