I am now thinking of creating a gallery on this matter as of today the streets are crowded with people staring at their phones.
Sony A7, FE 55mm F1.8 ZA T*
Testing my new (made in 1953) 50mm Jupiter 8, just arrived from the Ukraine. Lovely little piece of glass. I'm a big fan of Russian cameras and lenses!
Fast 50mm lenses don't go very well with the early screw-mount Leicas and their copies because large lenses tend to block 20-30% of the finder's view. However, the later Leotax models introduced in 1955 (F, T, and K - mine is the T) were about 5mm taller than the early Leotax cameras and other Leica copies. For this reason, the Jupiter-8 blocks very little of the finder's view here, and is thus ideally suited for this Leotax. In addition, finder magnification on these models is also higher than on early Leicas and their copies (about 0.5x versus about 0.35x).
The top cover on these later Leotaxes is a one-piece unit, as it was on the later screw-mount Leicas (IIIc, IIIf, and IIIg). And the finder/RF eyepieces are very close together, as on the later SM Leicas. These Leotaxes are considered among the best Leica copies ever made.
What looks like a self-timer is actually a flash selector lever. The vertical position is for focal-plane flash bulbs. X-sync at the 90 degree position. And the ring around one of the rangefinder windows is missing, part of the reason I got this camera cheap (US$55). There was also a little corrosion. In excellent condition this model now sells for about $150. The model T lacks the 1/1000 speed of the model F, and the model K doesn't even have the slow speed dial. All three came out in 1955.
The S-8 is a rocket weapon developed by the Soviet Air Force for use by military aircraft. It remains in service with the Russian Air Force and various export customers.
Developed in the 1970s, the S-8 is an 80 mm (3.1 in) rocket used by fighter bombers and helicopters. The system entered service in 1984 and is produced in a variety of subtypes with different warheads, including HEAT anti-armor, high-explosive fragmentation, smoke, and incendiary, as well as the specialized S-8BM runway-destroying munition and the S-8DM fuel-air explosive variants. Each rocket is between 1.5 meters (4 ft 11 in) and 1.7 meters (5 ft 7 in) long and weighs between 11.3 kg (25 lb) and 15.2 kg (33.5 lb), depending on warhead and fuse. Range is 2 to 4 kilometers (1.3 to 2.6 mi).
The S-8 is generally carried in the B series of rocket pods, carrying either seven or 20 rockets.

While service 8&9 both pick up in Tillydrone, for the first five months there was no bus stop for passengers to alight on the north side meaning passengers had to alight at Hayton or Grandholm, a considerable walk. This was corrected in February when a new stop was built just in front of where this picture was taken. The stops on Gordon Brae were installed while he Road built but notably not lay-bys causing the queue of traffic evident behind 67088 seen beee on the 8.
"Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: The requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree besides the river of truth, and tell the whole world----No YOU move." ~ Captain America

8 - Com a agulha de croche, vá ajustando a parte de cima sobre a de baixo fazendo com que fique parecendo "boleada", ela fica mais gordinha em cima, é para ser assim mesmo, para dar o efeito desejado. Pressione bem sobre a cola.
Deixe secar bem. Dependendo da cola, pode demorar um pouco, eu sempre faço a noite e corto no dia seguinte.

Memorial Bridge, Palatka, FL
Not the kind of memorializing the bridge builders had in mind.
We got to take her boating again on FL Bay in Key Largo. It's hard for her to stand up for very long on the boat-- no more modeling poses -- but at least I grabbed this one. Her eyes aren't sharp (because of my missed focus)-- oh well-- but maybe it captures something. She loved the boat ride- and I again held her in my lap and treasured the time we had.
