A misty morning on Walltown Crags back in the day when I could get up at silly o'clock and go in search of a photograph.
I'm going through all my old files trying to save space on my external HD. So many photo's and I'm thinking 'why didn't I do anything with that?'
Genuine mists, this was from 2018 beofre the days of AI

Kein Osterei zu Ostern, sondern ein Stopfei :-)
No easter egg for Easter, but a sewing egg.
Altes Werkzeug für das Reparieren von Kleidung.
Old tool for repairing clothes.
Ein Stopfei ist ein Gegenstand, der in Form und Größe einem Hühnerei entspricht. Es wird zum Stopfen eines Loches unter das Loch in einem Kleidungsstück geschoben und erleichtert durch das Aufspannen des Gewebes die Stopfarbeiten.
Stopfeier werden in der Regel aus Holz gedrechselt. Es gibt jedoch auch Stopfeier aus anderen Materialien. Bis ins zwanzigste Jahrhundert hinein wurden auch aufwändige Stopfeier mit Einlegearbeiten und anderen Verzierungen hergestellt.
The wooden egg is an item that corresponds in shape and size to a chicken egg. It is pushed under the hole in a garment to stuff a hole and facilitates the tamping work by tying up the fabric.
Stopper eggs are usually made of wood. However, there are also stuffing eggs made from other materials. Up to the twentieth century, elaborate stuffed eggs with inlay work and other ornaments were produced.

I love my old antique phone.
I was going to shoot my old typewriter but did not want to lug it up from the basement.
Happy Macro Mondays
Fruit Juicer ~~ By Jackie ~~
Created for Macro Mondays # BackInTheDay
This old vintage fruit juicer looks like it should be on the other end of a drill, or in a museum, rather than in the drawer of a modern day kitchen. I wonder what we would do if we had to depend on these old gadgets now?
I am not quite sure which way round the juicer would be bored into the fruit to extract the juice. The bottom end (on the left hand side of the image), has a lip on either side to pour out the juice.
Our house in the middle of the street!
Here is another shot taken of Haugh Fold .... its a few years after my previous upload but still many years ago. I love the cars in this pic! As you can see their is still open land at the top of the street .... now home to Haugh Square. (Check out previous upload)

This reading board was used to teach kids to read. They started using them in 1900, not sure when they stopped using them. They had some cool graphics by Cornelis Jetsis.
Thank you for your views, faves and or comments ! HMM

Back in the day, I loved writing with a fountain pen, especially in my school years. My writing would always be neater, albeit with a smudge or blot somewhere, but it was almost therapeutic.
I still like to use them, but it's so infrequent that whenever I do, even when they still have ink, they always seem to have dried out.
However, it was fun getting this out and cleaning it up for this week's theme :-) HMM

Out the legacy of my father in law I received this houseplant eight years ago.
Because it is such an easy plant to take care of he still lives.
It reminds me of those days, when I was young and every household kept these indoor plants.
I'm getting old....
Thanks for taking time to fave, comment and look at my work. I really appreciate.
In 2008, we drove from Toronto, Ontario (Canada) to Los Angeles. We took six days and traveled several iconic roads. Moab, Utah was one of our favorite spots. Due to motion sickness, I preferred to drive but on occasion my husband took the wheel. As we came around a bend, this stretch of road lay out before us. I’d seen this road in movies and commercials numerous times - I had always wanted to travel this stretch of road. Sitting in the passenger seat, I quickly snapped a photo with tears streaming down my face. This was one of the best surprises of the drive across America.
Kids don't play like this this anymore. Given to William Carroll Hurt Winston on the event of his tenth birthday in the year of our Lord 1890. Meticulously packed away and only taken out on special occasions.

This syringe came from a hospital where my friend worked over 30 years ago. It is made of stainless steel and tough glass. I use it for spraying soap into difficult to wash places, transferring small amounts of liquid such as perfume from one bottle to another and so on. It easily comes apart and I wash it in a dishwasher. For Macro Mondays group.
Yesterday I visited Stahl's automotive museum in Chesterfield, Michigan. It was my first visit in over a year. As I roamed around taking photos of the magnificent vintage Automobiles, the huge Hall Organ (see far left side) were booming out the theme from the Star Wars Movie in the background. After all, it was May 4th (May The Force Be With You).
It was also a first to take photos in the museum with my fisheye. I like to say that the image took time to carefully plan the composition of the above photo but all I did was raise my camera in the air and press the shutter. I cannot tell a lie. I am only 5'1 and am thrilled that this looks like I might have been standing on a footstool.
On the side of a light meter which was in use a lot before the days of point and shoot and digital cameras.

Wow. Made me feel like I have thrown out a lot that would have fit with the theme. Somewhere in a box is my slide rule from college, but my dad had a grand old wooden one, long lost in the family. However, I remembered something that I still use and decided it fit the theme. I purchased this manual Boston Champion pencil sharpener when I was in high school. It has traveled with me since, to college, med school, Cuba, San Diego, Virginia, Chicago, Maryland, and finally here in Pasadena. It works fine -- you remember, insert the pencil and let the clutch grip it and then just turn the crank. The sound and feel told you when the pencil was nice and sharp. Anyway, some memories while I did the photography and polished the image -- it seemed fitting to make it black and white, too. Hope you enjoy -- HMM!

El Rancho de las Golondrinas

La Ciénega, NM 🇺🇸

El Rancho de las Golondrinas (The Ranch of the Swallows), is a preserved working Spanish ranch originally built in the early 1690's and is located in La Ciénega, just south of Santa Fe, NM. It's on the El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro - The Royal Road of the Interior, which was the Spanish trade route that ran from Mexico City to the Ohkay Owingeh Pueblo which is just north of present day Española, NM. The ranch was an official stopping place for travelers on the route.
