Entering Civilization

October 8, 2020 by 4g3nd4

Transition from the soft shaped world of nature into the hard shaped industrial world… somehow they go well together 🙂

About:
This was shot a bit further up the Lysakerelven river, than this shot from Saturday. Fåbro Fossen or Granfossen waterfall that was utilized for industrial purposes for centuries, begins in the distance.

Discussion
Comments and critique are as always welcome. Let me hear your opinion, why do you like this, or even better, how would you approach this scenery. Give me your thoughts… not just a Wow!… only then I can improve :))

uberfischer and Gunnar Bangsmoen have spotted a halo in this shot….!!!! Hmmmm, not good :))))) They want to see a larger version to judge this matter better :))
So I uploaded a larger version (blurred foreground 🙂

What do think? Is there a halo in there…

Kane feels that the glow on the water might be over powering. I used a circular polarizer filter to reduce reflections, that’s why the river bottom is visible in the front. But I find it hard to reduce reflections in big surfaces when I’m shooting at 10mm (16mm fullframe eq).
Any suggestions?

Thanks
In and out of Explore, thanks to all for comments and faves :))

Fantasy Storybook House Model 12e (Color Corrected)

September 24, 2020 by 4g3nd4

Scale model color corrected from the previous photo. The first time I downloaded this I didnt realize I had color correction on the scanner! www.flickr.com/photos/8331880@N02/3600447061/

Some more models rndmodelshop.com/

Now we can see the window frames and stucco detail a little better. The window to the right over the door has an organic stain glass pattern to it. The double window below has a diamond criss cross in it. The doorknobs themselves are the heads of nails, the rust color is.. well.. rusty nail heads!

As an experiment I tried different patterns for each of the windows. I made wood masters, poured silicone rubber molds, then 2 part resin parts. It saves alot of time re-making components for other houses.

Roughly 24 inches tall mounted on a round base, interior lit. Please see the other photo in the stream that gives the scale better 🙂

All wood & rigid material construction. No clay, foamcore, card stock, fimo, super sculpey, etc..

Walking Bridge, former rail line on Old Collins Company property, Collinsville CT (color)

September 21, 2020 by 4g3nd4

Walking Bridge in Collinsville, Connecticut.

Collinsville is located along the banks of the Farmington River, in the southeast corner of the Town of Canton, bordered by the towns of Avon, Farmington and Burlington. In 1826, Samuel Watkinson Collins, age 24, his brother David, age 21, and their wealthy cousin, William Wells purchased a sawmill property along the Farmington River and began mass producing high quality axes and selling them wholesale throughout the world. The Collins Company constructed housing for its employees, as well as stores, a church, bank and hotel. In the 1920’s, the Company owned as many as 190 houses in Collinsville. The first fire department was organized to protect the factory and its properties in Collinsville and the building and equipment was later donated to the Town of Canton’s volunteer fire department.
The Collins product line grew to include 1,300 types of edge tools, including axes, adzes, machetes, hatchets, picks, knives, swords and bayonets. The Company built dams on the river to produce hydroelectric power to run their production and situated buildings strategically along raceways and turbines to take advantage of this source of water power. In 1966, after 140 years in business, the Collins Company closed its doors, due in part to losses experienced in the devastating Flood of 1955 and changing technologies and economies. Today, about 26 of the original 50+ factory buildings remain and are leased by a variety of tenants, such as; a multi-dealer antiques company, small offices, artist studios, woodworkers and metal workers. The former rail line, which Sam Collins brought to Town, has been converted to a walking and biking trail which connects to several area towns.

Nearly 200 years old and still spinning

September 15, 2020 by 4g3nd4

Out deep into the forest you’ll come up on a sign at the site that says the water wheel was built in 1833 by Edwin J. Dalby and was one of the first hydroelectric plants at about 1923 on the Hood Canal. It provided electricity for the property of Edwin and Ethel Dalby, including their home nearby. Dalby used part of the tiny log-sided powerhouse for a woodworking shop.
The couple raised four children in the "big" house that still stands on the property, about two miles from Union.
When Highway 106 — then called "Navy Yard Highway" — was built in 1928, the spacious new pavement replaced the one-lane dirt road that had served the Dalby home. Cars started whizzing past, but not so fast that people didn’t noticed the picturesque water wheel.

The walls should be treated with flat paint or kalsomine in pale blue,the ceiling a trifle lighter and the woodwork enameled white. Todelight the little ones a strip of nursery folk could be used as a border,the upper edge placed on a line with window tops. These borderscome in printed strips or in the form of cut-outs to be pasted on.
