Will Knott: Snowbird

§ March 27th, 2011

Things are currently warming up (eventually there will be daffodil photos) but in the meantime… a reminder of how cold it was this winter.

And the tree seems to have been killed by the cold. I’ll know for sure next storm.

Will Knott: Lunar powered lights

§ March 26th, 2011

We had a very near moon recently, and I think that some supermarket might have used it to power their lights.

Will Knott: Bears

§ March 26th, 2011

There was a bear of burl,
Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of his spine,
He’s gone to a bear fair,
with lots and lots of bear,
And he’s going to have a good time.

.
.
And no its not me; I’m not able to go.

Will Knott: Chrysalis

§ March 21st, 2011

What is this?

chrysalis

I spotted a chrysalis for, well, something right beside my doorbell this morning. Its sitting in plain view, but it is a bit hard for most predators to get in there, its hidden enough so that the curious don’t poke it and I didn’t notice it until now despite the fact that its probably been there all winter.

While I can tell its a chrysalis, I have no idea about what lies beneath.

Any ideas?
Will

P. S. Clicking on the photograph should bring you to the options to see a larger version of the photo.

Will Knott: Ume

§ March 19th, 2011

Ume blossoms are often mentioned in Japanese poetry as a symbol of spring. I first learned about ume, or Japanese Plum blossom when looking in to papercraft projects. I have no idea if any of the ume ceremonies will take place this year in Japan as they have other things to worry about at the moment.

Actually this isn’t ume. This is the blossom of a Victoria Plum. Ume, despite its name, is actually a type of apricot.

The Sharing of the green
Something a little different for Saint Patrick’s Day. A macro shot taken in Ballylanders, Co. Limerick. If anyone knows what the fly is, please tell me.

Take care,
Will

Will Knott: Androiding me

§ March 7th, 2011

Something of a test post to see how well image posting works.

This is a self portrait made using the Androidify app.

And it looks a lot like me, especially around the antennas.

Will Knott: A (tw)itch from a corpse in the dead village

§ June 15th, 2010

Its been a while since I’ve been here.

And how many things have changed.

This is a personal blog, just saying. That means, to me, that I blog because I feel like blogging. But when life offers you options that make blogging hard to do, it makes blogging hard to do. Simply put, I’m not too sure what to put here.

Anything that stops the merry-go-round of a need to write will stop it. Part of this is of course that I write on Culch.ie and I’m doing some work for WRF2.com. And part of it is that this particular itch hasn’t needed scratching.

I haven’t even been photo-blogging (most of the photos  taken over the last few months were either for relations (and not to be disseminated beyond cousins) or for friends to put on Facebook (usually under their accounts).

But the itch is returning. There will be cross postings (of course) , but expect to see this blog rise up.

Part of it is, its Summer. I feel a little bit better. My life is still in a state where I don’t want to write about it, but I’m looking around more. Feel like writing more. Getting my fngers to write for me anyway.

There will be shuffling. But I think this blog is going around once more.
