I've created this illustration for my site (www.efeitosvisuais.com/blog) - sorry, in Portuguese - using Photoshop CS3 in about 2 hours.

This is my grandfather's compass. He did many things in his life and one of them was to be one of the primary surveyors of the Great Lakes in the 1930s. He used this compass as part of that work. He died of lung cancer when I was very young and my memories of him are fleeting at best. It feels good to hold it.

It was years ago that I first saw an advertisement for a "digital compass" built into an automobile, but it was only recently that I got to see one in person. o.o

 

I guess it should be kind of underwhelming, considering what I had imagined it would look like, but it's very exciting nonetheless. XD

Who cares about the old, good compass in times of GPS navigation devices sewed into a table clock and your dog's collar? I've found it in my old junk box that my Mom still keeps on the balcony. I was about to throw it away 'coz it was slightly broken but then i've managed to take it apart and fix the internals. It even works!

Leaving the amphitheatre, we came upon this large (like 4 feet across) stone compass showing the cardinal directions. an inner greenish ring showed various types of weather (tornado, cyclone, scirocco, etc.). I am assuming the weather types are related to these cardinal directions???
