This is another from the barges along the A100 in Berlin. I like how the top most stem of the rope is not aligned with the rest, as if to suggest that rebels rise to the top by being so awkward to rule, which I really appreciate! There is also, so often, something so timeless about this kind of monochrome render, but when we see ropes, tools and materials done in such a way, the common image is of historical and timeless labouring, hard work and real men!
Years ago, I was once a farm labourer in North Wales (Tremorfa Farm) and I absolutely loved manual labour; more so that I am reminded I feel by today's generations that Generation X, were the last of the muck and muscle labourers of men who behaved like men and weren't offended by everything, we just got on with it!
I hope everyone is well and so as it's Friday tomorrow we've made it, so as always, thank you! :)

Nothing sums up the season better than a bit of red and green.
An inch (2,54cm) worth of twisted and coiled tinsel stems (pipe cleaners).
HMM!
Macro Mondays: Red and Green
The autumn sun is setting over the east(ish) end of the Belt Railway of Chicago's massive Clearing Yard, where GP23-ECO strains on a cut of steel coils, passing parked GP38-2 581 and a mate.
This was a fun theme, and it was quite a challenge‼️
A group of strings makes a fringe. I have coiled them to ensure that the longest dimension is less than 75 millimeters or 3 inches. Happy Macro Mondays 🌈 HMM And Happy Sliders Sundays HSS
A subtle damage... but even the slightest interruption of the tungsten coil will render any lightbulb useless. ☺

Conrail’s RR32 job has just snaked it’s way across CN (Utilized by Delray Connecting) and is now headed south to serve US Steel Great Lakes Works in Ecorse. Though Ecorse’s hot side and Zug Island has laid dormant for years, coating and miscellaneous mill activities keep this area alive.
Train: CSAO RR32 with NS 5019 (GP38-2), NS 5015 (GP38-2)

Coils and/or Springs .
As the title suggests , there is a gadget , called " The Gizmo " that will enable one to makes coils just at the turn of a handle - however , the one at home has gone to play hide & seek . Therefore , this is doing it the traditional way with the shaped pliers , a different pair for different sizes . In the little pile of quickly made coils there are different sizes and some different shapes . There are tri-angular , square , tear-drop , conical and so on . There can also be seen at the back a beaded bracelet , this has been made using memory wire so it behaves a bit like aa slinky and is very springy indeed needing the pliers to hold it down .
Well this is my little shot for SSC of coils and springs and with all the above creativity a small song to fit would be ----------

This is my third year with my Passion Flower plant... and it's doing well outside again... I hope I get as many flowers as I have in the past!
