地震発生時 皇居・宮内庁とその付近
Imperial palace, Imperial Household Agency and surrounding area at time of earthquake occurrence. The Japanese text is followed by an English translation. 東京・千代田区の皇居・宮内庁付近で、地震発生の瞬間を捉えた映像。 空を鳥の大群が飛び回り、カラスたちの鳴き声があたりに響きわたる。 鳴き声に混じり、金属のきしむ鈍い音が聞こえ、次第に激しさを増していく。 職員や関係者たちが悲鳴を上げながら、建物の外へ飛び出してきた。 背の高い木々が揺れ、止めてあった車も、左右に動きだしている。 ひときわ大きな音に目を転じると、近隣の工事現場に高くそびえ立つクレーンまでもが揺れはじめた。 職員たちは、その場に立ちつくし、今にも倒れそうな何台ものクレーンを不安げに見つめる。 Footage: Capture of earthquake from the moment of its occurrence at the Imperial Palace, Imperial Household Agency and surrounding in Chiyoda ward, Tokyo. A flock of birds circle the sky and the crying of crows fills the air all around. Amid the cries, a dull sound of metal creaking is heard, gradually increasing its intensity. Employees and those at the scene let out screams as they rush outside of the building. Tall trees sway and even parked cars are moving left and right. Directing our eyes to a striking loud sound, a crane standing at a nearby construction site begins to swing. Employees stare at the cranes that could fall down at any moment with uneasy conscience, remaining to stand at that very spot. 地図を見るwww.fnn-news.com View map www.fnn-news.com
科学映像館 空を飛ぶ種子 ラワン・フタバダキ(大型な種子)
フタバガキ科出典: フリー百科事典『ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 移動: ナビゲーション, 検索?フタバガキ科(クロンキスト体系) Dipterocarpa retusus 分類 界 : 植物界 Plantae 門 : 被子植物門 Magnoliophyta 綱 : 双子葉植物綱 Magnoliopsida 目 : ツバキ目 Theales 科 : フタバガキ科 Dipterocarpaceae 亜科・属 本文参照 フタバガキ科(Dipterocarpaceae)は双子葉植物の科で、世界の熱帯に自生する(日本にはない)常緑高木600種前後からなり、3亜科17属ほどに分けられる。特に熱帯雨林に多い樹種で、木材はラワン材として利用されているが、生長が遅いため乱伐や乱開発により絶滅が危惧されるものも少なくない。また有名な娑羅双樹(サラソウジュ)もこの科に属する。 フタバガキ(Dipterocarpus属の総称)という和名は、柿のような形をした果実に羽根突きの羽のようながくが2枚ついていることによる(学名も「羽の2枚ある実」の意味)。 科学映像館 空を飛ぶ種子 ラワン(大型な種子) 「熱帯雨林の植物誌」(平凡社)に、ちょっと感動的なことが書いてあったので、蛇足ながら紹介。 『・・・成熟したフタバガキ科の木が始めて花をつけるのに、ときには60年もかかる。そして花が咲き出しても次の花が咲くまでには三年、七年、あるいは十一年といった奇数の年数(あるいは多分もっと長く)がかかると聞いたら、多くの人はびっくりするにちがいない。・・・』 数あるフタバガキの種も同じ時期に開花することはないらしい。 『・・・多分、熱帯林のこの「巨人」は、数百万年以上もの間の進化の過程で、動物たちの「助け」を受けなくてもやせた土地に生育できるように適応してきたのだろう。風の助けも受けず、昆虫や鳥類あるいはその他の動物の援助もなく、まれにしか開花せず、他の種と交雑 ...
Yashica A TLR Unbox (375)
Yashica-A is a medium format 120 film TLR camera made by Yashica and introduced in c.1959 according to McKeown. [1] However, the Yashica A appears together with the Yashica C and LM in both December 1956 USA and April 1957 Swedish ads. The Yashica A was a basic model, both cosmetically and spec wise similar to the late versions of the Yashicaflex AI (first released in 1954) but with the top speed of the Copal shutter upgraded from 1/200 to 1/300. The 1960 Olden Camera & Lens Co catalogue lists the Yashica A at $29.95 and the Yashica D at $49.95. With a number of cosmetic chnages, it continued in production until 1969. Not many were sold in later years. Although usually a black camera, cameras produced between about 1957 to 1959, like the Yashica D, had grey leatherette with either black or grey metalwork or cream leatherette with brown metalwork (rare). The Yashica A features twin Yashimar then Yashikor 80mm f/3.5 lenses, and has a Copal rim-set shutter, with shutter speeds of 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, and 1/300. It has a PC connection for flash sync, and because it uses a leaf shutter, it is capable of X sync at all shutter speeds. It was offered with black or grey coverings. The picture size is 6x6cm. Operation Shutter speed is selected by rotating the shutter speed dial. Aperture is set by adjusting a lever on the outside of the shutter speed dial. Film advance is performed by manually turning the advance wheel until the next frame number appears in the red window on the back ...
