It’s a “White Ash”, Fraxinus americana.
#Photography #thicktrunktuesday

A large tree trunk fills the frame. The bark is rough and there is plenty of lichen and moss. Also, the shadow of another tree branch.

Fine tuning the Lego spectrometer more.
Using a maglite as the source eliminates the need for a separate collimating lens.
I also switched away from the very flaky variable slit made of a sliding brick that wouldn't stay in place if you looked at it wrong.
After some failed experiments with aluminum foil, I discovered that the round tree trunk Duplo brick was a tiny bit smaller than a nominal square 2x2 brick. When placed next to a square brick and locked in place with …

Overview of the new spectrometer setup: a mag lite sits in the groove between two studs with bricks on either side to keep it from rolling, then has a single stud gap before the slit for inserting the sample into

The poster is very thick with text, but the main visuals are:
A mastodon holding an EU flag in its trunk.
This elephant hasn’t forgotten! ...that the EU made us more prosperous and secure. The world knows Brexit has failed. Scotland knows. Continuing to fail is not n option. Let's draw even closer to Europe.

Join us today. Let’s win the future.

Tributes to the ficus marked for felling at Steiner and Waller 💚

Thick tree trunk with an orange emergency tree removal notice from the city, and a red notice handwritten, “Thank you dear trees for your selfless shade and quiet intimacy.” A pink flower sticks out from a heart-shaped hole in the paper.

Row of tall ficus trees with thick green canopy above the sidewalk.

“All trees go to heaven.” Pink paper on trunk under tree removal notice

Handwritten love notes hung on twine tied loosely around tree trunk. “I will miss the way your branches welcome me home on bike rides, lining the streets”

After undergoing the ritual debate of Coopers Hawk or Sharp Shinned Hawk, we’ve unanimously decided this is a Coopers Hawk that swooped down in pursuit of a small bird hiding in a holly bush.
After playing it cool in this nearby tree, the hawk tried diving into the bush (ouch!), landing & coming up from underneath, but could not reach nor flush out its prey.
It then landed on the railing & became aware of us gaping at it from our front window. Rightfully spooked, it flew …

A Coopers Hawk is perched on a branch among bare trees. Its talons are visible, gripping the tree branch.

Been waiting for Apple to update the Studio Display since mine got damaged in the move. Couldn’t bring myself to rebuy the same thing at full price.
Was using a tiny non-retina screen for a while, but lately I’ve been back at the desk more.
Picked up a Samsung ViewFinity S9 to try. ~$760 USD on Coupang TW for 5K, kinda wild.
More plasticky than Apple’s, but for the price I’m pretty happy lol.
