When the conditions are right and the gorillas are active, you take a lot of shots and sift through them, sometimes years later. KWP_4442-Edit-2_LuminarNeo-edit-Edit

The Most Stunning F-117 Photos We’ve Seen Since Its ‘Retirement’
Tyler RogowayPUBLISHED Feb 4, 2024 4:26 PM EST
F-117 flying low level through the California desert.
James Reeder
We have seen some great photos of the F-117 Nighthawks that continue to operate in developmental test and training roles. These images have improved incrementally since their use as aggressor and for test support became openly discussed by the Air Force, with the locales they could operate from expanding along with it. Now, one set of images, taken by aviation photographer James Reeder, is the best we've ever seen.
The photos in question were taken in the famed Sidewinder low-level route that circumnavigates much of the R-2508 range complex that sits atop the Mojave Desert and the many military test and training installations that dot it. This particular section of the route, which has steep canyon walls, provides an especially dramatic backdrop for military aircraft rocketing through. It is perhaps the best vantage point we have seen of the famous route since the 'Jedi Transition' through Rainbow Canyon was shut down to military aircraft after a deadly crash in 2019.

While we have seen some great shots from a similar vantage point of F-117s, the lighting and knife edge profiles shown in the images below are truly exceptional. Every detail on the top half of the 'Black Jet' is highlighted and its planar exhausts are fully visualized in action.

James explained to us that he received a message about a pair of F/A-18s that would be flying through the route and that their pilots would love photos if he was out there. "I enjoy the interaction with the pilots, so I decided I could make it up there to get them some shots," Reeder said.
"Arriving at my perch of choice after a bit of a climb, I settled in and waited for what I thought would be a pair of F/A-18s. Imagine my surprise when I saw a tiny black jet rounding the turn and then another. When I realized that they were F-117s, I was so shocked, I almost forgot to shoot! I have never captured this aircraft in the wild before."
"When I saw the light on the aircraft as they approached, I knew I had been blessed with a great opportunity. Using my Canon 5Ds with the Canon 100-400mm lens and a 1.4 X teleconverter, I followed both aircraft and clicked off as many shots as my pathetically slow buffer and limited frame rate would allow. After they passed, I couldn't resist chimping my photos [looking through the photos in preview on the DSLR's screen] to make sure I had captured what I wanted. I was thrilled to say the least. I think I yelled something unintelligible to the other two guys out there and threw my hands in the air."
The day proved fruitful beyond the pairs of F-117s and F/A-18s.
"I also shot 5 F-15s and 8 F/A-18s and enjoyed seeing them all, but those two Nighthawks were the stars of the show that day!. Yes, I got the shots for the F/A-18 pilots."
Jarod Hamilton was also out there caught the video below that he shared on X. It is the ultimate companion to these incredible photos.
Bravo to James and Jarod for capturing these famed jets like never before during their 'active retirement.'

Hello, what is the absolute UNIT next to this dude?

Shell for the French Obusier de 400 Modèle 1915/1916 railway howitzer.
Tumblr media
The howitzers were made from surplus 340mm naval gun barrels, shortened to 25 calibers and bored out to 400mm, then placed onto a railway carriage for transport and firing. Only 12 were made. The projectiles used varied in weight between 641–900 kg (1,413–1,984 lb): * Armor piercing: weight 641 kg, maximum velocity 465 m/s, maximum range 16 km * Common: weight 890 kg, meximum velocity 465 m/s, maximum range 15.1 km * High-explosive: weight 900 kg, maximum velocity 530 m/s, maximum range 15.8 km Their range was between 15.1 and 16 km (9.4 to 9.9 miles) at a firing angle of 65 degrees. Compared to its parent naval gun with a range of 18 km, this was sufficient. The howitzers were used at the Battle of Verdun, Battle of the Somme, the Second Battle of the Aisne, and at least two were operated by United States forces (53rd Coast Artillery Regiment, Coast Artillery Corps). All survived the war. In World War 2, all twelve howitzers were used to reinforce the Maginot Line in the Alsace and Lorraine areas. They saw no action due to a lack of targets in their assigned sectors. After the French Armistice, eight of the guns would be pressed into service by Germany as the 40 cm Haubitze (Eisenbahn) 752(f). Six of these eight captured guns would see use during the Siege of Leningrad. None are thought to have survived the Second World War.

Everyone loves a splurge at the nursery, but the fuel for making a garden is everywhere. If you invest some time instead of money, you can harvest lots of materials for free! Subscribe 🔔 http://ab.co/GA-subscribe
Leaves are one of the easiest fuels to find, in autumn they fall from the sky! They can be used as a simple mulch, incorporated into compost or to make leaf mould. Simply pile the leaves in a cool dark spot and walk away. In about 12 months, the leaves break down into a dark, crumbly, low-nutrient compost that holds water and nutrients well. Millie mixes 2-parts of leaf mould with 2-parts washed sand and one-part composted manure to make a simple mix for seedlings.
Adding nutrients continuously is key to a productive garden, as you are continuously harvesting them with the crops. Animal manures are some of the most available sources, Millie keeps hens for both eggs and to provide manure. Different animal manures have varying properties and contained nutrients, so are best used accordingly. But a simple rule for all manures is not to use them fresh, instead, incorporate them into your hot compost. This will ensure that any contained weed seeds are killed and distribute the nutrients throughout the compost, making them safe to use.
Tree-sources are also abundant and useful materials for the garden, and if you get to know your local arborists, you can access them low-cost. Millie collects suckers of an environmental weed, Populus alba, for use as stakes and climbing frames and has inoculated some fallen oak logs with shiitake mushrooms.
Woodchip mulch is also an abundant resource and can be sourced from arborists in the local area. Millie uses it for paths in the vegetable garden, which also break down into compost. Firstly, she excavates a deep trench between the beds, about 400mm deep, and fills it with layers of woodchips and added chicken manure. Over 12-18 months, the woodchips rot down into compost that can be used on the surrounding garden beds.
There are so many things you can use to make a garden, and so many of them can be scrounged, swapped, or sourced for little or no cost. You just need to invest some time, not money. There are so many rewards.

Some of my favorite birding shots
Don't think I've ever shared my bird photography here yet, so I wanted to pull together some of my favorite shots. The first and last are currently my favorites, though my vulture portraits are very near and dear to my heart ❤️
For those curious, I shoot with a Canon EOS Rebel T6, and a Tamron 18-400mm lens. I edit in Darktable.
I'm not a professional by any means, but I do enjoy photography, and try to get some great shots :)
All photos were taken in Florida, USA. In order, they are:
Ring-billed Gull washing off a clam at Fort DeSoto
Black Vulture at Orlando Wetlands Park
Turkey Vulture at Orlando Wetlands Park
Black Vulture at Orlando Wetlands Park
Juvenile Sandwich Tern begging for a meal at Fort DeSoto (the black birds around it are Black Skimmers)
Juvenile Green Heron at Emerson Point Preserve
Greater Yellowlegs at Fort DeSoto
Pine Warbler at Tom Bennett Park
Red-Bellied Woodpecker in Orlando
Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher at Orlando Wetlands Park
Black Skimmers at Fort DeSoto
I also sell some of my bird photography on INPRNT! :) I have. Well over 200,000+ photos, so I try to edit them and get them up slowly but surely. If you're ever curious about a bird that is in florida and want some shots of it, feel free to ask! I haven't seen every bird, but I sure have seen a lot of them.
