Compass Bus Dennis Dart SLF Plaxton Pointer 2 SN56 AXC on a Lewes town service this afternoon, 22nd May, 2019. This bus came from Coakley Bus ten years ago.
This is a brass geologists compass. Geologists sometimes have to hike in remote areas so are limited on the equipment they can carry.
This compass not only does map reading but can also measure the angles, heights and directions of rock strata and fault lines. The other numbers and dials you see in the picture give the geologist the information they need to carry out the trigonometry calculus for these angles.
The camera was set to macro and I used a preset function to create a pin-hole effect.
Thanks for looking.

After I posted my Math Compass photo for Macro Mondays (theme was Rule), I felt that it could have been done much differently. Since I just can't wait until the end of the year for the possiblility of a MM theme of Redux, here it is...

This was taken at the the end of the dock of our favorite layover stop in New Providence, Bahamas. The colorful little bungalows at Compass Cay brighten our day, along with the gorgeous turquoise water of course! We've stopped here a few times now between flights as it's only minutes away from the airport, and they have great food and service.

A compass rose adorns the square in front of the Monument to the Discoveries. Made of black and red lioz limestone, it has a 50 m diameter, and contains a 14 m-wide planisphere decorated with vegetal elements, 5 small compass roses, 3 blowing faces personifying the wind, a mermaid, a mythical fish and Neptune with a trident and a trumpet, riding a marine beast. Dates, ships and caravels mark the main routes of the Portuguese expansion between the 15th and 16th centuries. The background consists of ‘open sea’ waves, a motif commonly used for the typical Portuguese cobblestone pavements. The compass rose was designed by architect Luís Cristino da Silva, and bestowed by the Republic of South Africa, which joined in the commemorations for the Infante. Inaugurated on 5 August 1960
Where are you headed? If you don’t know, what a wonderful surprise could lie ahead. Being lost can lead you on the most amazing adventures :)

Why not a chicken compass?? #icad2016 Day9 Compass (phMartenLiquidWatercolors, oil pastels, brush pen)
This is my Silva compass. Part of its perspex base has broken off. It's little used now that Google Maps and OS maps online make instruments like this almost obsolete. However, it does not need batteries, nor does it lose its signal, so still useful as a backup. Probably about fifty years old now and still working.

I was coming up from a dive when I spotted this. The camera was set to a white balance for deeper water (more red, so the jellyfish was whiter in reality), but I thought that the effect was nice. Garnish Pier, County Cork, August 2007.
Essential if one wants to fly in the right direction.
Whenever a significant change is made to an airframe it is necessary to Swing the compass to determine the small errors that residual magnetic fields in the structure have on the compass.
Those errors are recorded on the Compass Card. As can be seen from this card, the errors in this compass are only one or two degrees.
