just another example! And yet we constantly fall in the mindtrap that we are single separate entities...
Three views of a peculiar connector socket... and each of those evokes something totally different to me, as the titles of the three variants can attest. And it was not even intentional at the time of the shooting. 😇
The socket consists of a matrix of 6x6 (minus the ones in the corners, so 32 in total) golden plated contacts, whose directions are alternating at 90° of each other for each row, so as to guarantee an optimal robustness of the connection, probably. The dimension of the square matrix is 4x4cm, so it complies ideally with the 3" rule of the Macro Mondays group.
For the context, this socket is part of an old electrical device. I salvaged it from an electronic waste collecting point, out of curiosity, as It didn't look like anything I had seen before. With this week's "Socket" topic, it became obvious that I could finally make good use of the "thing". Entering in a search engine some reference number I found on the object, I could trace its origin as being a "communication test device" being used by the army.
Having opened it, I was impressed by the thoughtful engineering that went into its conception. Now that the object played its role a last time, I happily returned it to the electronic junk collection point, albeit as a heap of dissembled parts. 😊
Old barn beams were brought in to give the coffee house Double Shots atmosphere, I guess this beam connection was in the way so removed.
A small rope in our garden...
Excuse me for being late today, had a lot to do...
So i took the cam, took a picture, three minutes of lightroom and: here it is 'Connections!'
Have fun and a wonderful week
And of course HMM!

Just moments after a heavy downpour, SOO SD60 #6053 & CSX SD50 #8500 pull Atlanta - Birmingham freight Q617-18 up the Vaughn Connection linking CSX's Manchester Sub to the A&WP Sub at Union City, GA.

It just so happens that as I catch up on my usual backlog of shots, both today have connections with Redcliffe where we were with flickr friend Greenstone Girl yesterday who was up from Melbourne visiting the Sunshine State. Well, we had a great morning and it was sunny yesterday as with this earlier shot as well - but after lunch today apparently another downpour will move in.
This is Suttons Beach at Redcliffe on the northern border of Brisbane (local government area perspective) and yesterday, photos were taken looking back this way from under those skinny Palm Trees in the distance. A bit cold for swimming unless you are an iceberg!
Legs eleven on the left lol!
