Moorland views.
I took the camera up to Bodmin moor today to capture some moody black and white shots.
Theres so much mining history, gnarled wind swept trees and moody skys, it really fires up the imagination for photography.
I hid in an engine house to dodge the downpours, and was lucky enough to see some sunshine in between the showers 😀

- Other (7%, 9 votes)
mirlo.space reshared this.
I am an artist, listener, and run a label. I voted for the first. As an artist and for my label, all the work is done and paid for when pre-orders start, that period is more about drumming up interest and the money from pre-orders can either help fund additional promo for the release, or for the label, its cut can go towards the next release.
I can only imaging waiting till release day being useful if you are doing it kickstarter style?

"2016 Présentation du Collectif contre l'Expérimentation et l'Exploitation Animales
The post CCE²A Lutte pour les chiens de laboratoire de Mézilles et autres espèces animales appeared first on Parole d'Animaux."
🇺🇸 The muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) is a semi-aquatic rodent native to North America but now also widespread in wetlands across Europe. It measures around 40 to 60 centimeters in length including the tail and weighs between 1 and 2 kilograms. Muskrats are excellent swimmers, using their flattened tails and webbed hind feet to navigate through water. They build dome-shaped lodges out of vegetation near the edges of ponds and rivers. Active mostly at dusk and night, muskrats feed on aquatic plants, roots, and sometimes small aquatic animals. Despite being shy and often hidden, they play an important role in wetland ecosystems by helping to shape the landscape through their digging and feeding habits.
🇩🇪 Der Bisam (Ondatra zibethicus) ist ein wassernaher Nagetierbewohner, der ursprünglich aus Nordamerika stammt, inzwischen aber auch in europäischen Feuchtgebieten weit verbreitet ist. Er wird etwa 40 bis 60 cm lang (inklusive Schwanz) und wiegt zwischen 1 und 2 Kilogramm. Mit seinem seitlich abgeflachten Schwanz und den teilweise behaarten Schwimmfüßen ist der Bisam ein ausgezeichneter Schwimmer. Er baut kugelförmige Nester aus Pflanzenmaterial an Uferbereichen von Flüssen und Teichen. Meist in der Dämmerung oder nachts aktiv, ernährt er sich hauptsächlich von Wasserpflanzen, Wurzeln und gelegentlich kleinen Wassertieren. Trotz seiner scheuen Lebensweise ist der Bisam ein wichtiger Bestandteil unserer Feuchtgebietslandschaften.

August 31, 1907: Distillers produced 20 gallons of beer and 1.4 gallons of whiskey for every man, woman and child in America, the U.S. says.
Eben haben wir wieder 45 Minuten lang gesucht, denn: "Ich brauche doch meinen 6. Pfeil!"
Die meisten Tradis haben irgendwie einen Satz von 12 Pfeilen und denken über ein neues Set nach, sobald dieser Satz auf 5-6 geschrumpft ist - und sehen Pfeilverlust entsprechend entspannt: "Der Wald hats gegeben, der Wald hats wieder genommen."
From the how to whip up a moral panic department:
20 gallons is 160 (US) pints a year, which is 0.44 pints per day, or 200ml, on average. The whisky is 5.3 litres/year, or 14.5ml/day, or a single measure every two days on average.
This was spun as rampant alcoholism and used to gin up support for Prohibition.

And in classic NYT "neutral" fashion, the narrator refers to the IDF rationale with no context, as if there is no previous pattern of murder and lies by #Israel.

L'immagine ritrae un gruppo di persone in costumi medievali, probabilmente durante un evento storico o una rappresentazione teatrale. In primo piano, una donna in un abito rosso e nero con un velo, regge una bandiera con un motivo geometrico rosso e nero. Accanto a lei, un uomo in armatura completa, con elmo e scudo, tiene un'ascia. Dietro di loro, un altro uomo in armatura completa regge una bandiera rossa con un stemma. Sullo sfondo, un uomo in abiti medievali con un cappello rosso osserva la scena. La luce soffusa e la parete di pietra creano un'atmosfera storica.

L'immagine mostra un evento storico ambientato in un'area urbana, probabilmente in Italia, con un'atmosfera notturna. Al centro, un uomo in un abito nero elaborato, con un copricapo e un mantello riccamente decorato, tiene un documento in mano, suggerendo un ruolo di autorità. Ai suoi piedi, tre uomini in abiti rossi con cappelli simili, probabilmente rappresentano personaggi di alto rango. Sullo sfondo, un pubblico assiste all'evento, con alcune persone in abiti storici, e si trovano davanti a un negozio con le scritte "SOUVENIR" e "TABACCHI". La scena è illuminata da luci artificiali, creando un'atmosfera solenne e storica.
