There's always some compromise when you recreate an object in Lego, and this build is a fine example of that tenet. On it's own, it's a perfectly serviceable representation of a golf club, but it's very difficult to represent the subtle contours and concave slopes of modern clubs with Lego. I considered building this one 4X larger, but sadly, I just didn't have time.
The sign remains from the Art Deco movie theater opened at 58 E. Oak St. in 1938. It was converted to a 6-screen theater in 1988 and closed in 2006. It was renovated into retail space in 2011. My father, brother and I saw the premiere of the 1959 World Series movie here; the 2005 premiere was also held here.

52Frames - Week 28 - Edited By Someone Else
With the freedom to shoot any subject this week, and have someone else edit, I wanted to shoot my favorite genre, Street Photography. However, with Covid, I also had to avoid mingling amongst strangers.
Out on a drive, camera at the ready, I saw this old, non-descript motel; one of those likely frequented by truckers back in the day when Milwaukee Avenue was a major truck route before the advent of interstates and superhightways. Today, who knows...hourly rates maybe?
I shot about a dozen frames (none of them stellar), selected 3 of them and sent off to a super-creative photographer in my 52Frames Mini-Group, Anna Hylton. Anna described her creative process as follows:
"I loved the old timey hotel marquee - I can just picture it lit up with neon - very Route 66! so I decided to focus on it with a severe crop. Similarly, I chose the b&w because the inherent colors do nothing for the scene (that's the rule I use: do the colors add anything? if not, ditch 'em!). I added a 50px white border to bring some support to the whole thing AND to give it an old-timey, polaroidy feel..."
IMHO, Anna did an amazing job! I am very grateful for her excellent work and the lessons I learned from her process.

"That form must follow function
Is a rule designers stress,
Reversed without compunction
The rule has like success,
As in the nightly armor
Of the damsel in this dress."

"Tax-worn? Weary? Wallet light?
How about a date tonight?
Expending thus is quite relaxing -
You won't find this outlay taxing."

The Esquire 10 project presented a lot of challenges, including this helmet. At first, I thought I'd probably base this on a large sphere, but the more I looked at the reference images, the more I felt that the smooth contours of the helmet would be grossly misrepresented by a studs-out sphere design. So, in contrast to the watch, I opted to build this object at a very tiny scale.

"A man who is married has offered to buy her
A screen test, a Jaguar, a week end in Haiti.
She gently but firmly said, 'Sir, I'm a lady.'

Perspectives
Trichoerethistic – concentrate on looking at a girl’s hair
Prosopophilous – susceptible to a pretty face
Cheilerotic – lips make you lyrical
Brachioerigentic – an arm worshipper
Mastoconcupiscent – like many men: bosom-crazy
Laparalibidinous – intrigued by a waistline
Philopygian – applaud a pretty rear profile
Femoralator – sensitive to thigh size
Crurosensual – a leg-man
Genubullient – knee-conscious
Suramorous – a calf-watcher
Taloproclitic – dream about ankles
It is one of the pleasantest facts of nature that from his earliest years, the normal male finds his opposite to be of interest, intellectual stimulation and, upon occasion, worthy of admiration. An equally pleasant social fact is that he is continually in the presence of the female biped, which he finds diverting. If he is removed from her presence, by civil or martial law, or other catastrophe, he becomes glum and uncommunicative. He may run amok, or even take to hard work, for compensation, but must be forgiven for this.
But always he seeks the Ideal. After a certain amount of experience, he reaches the scar-tissue or I-want-a-girl-just-like-the-girl-who-married-dear-old-dad stage. This can mean that he noticed that dad was never stabbed twenty-two times with an ice pick while taking his bath, or thrown into alimony jail. But mostly it means that the young man is looking for a Follies girl who can cook. In this laudable pursuit, we herewith aid him with our encyclopedia of terms (above), compiled by Dr. A.C. Schmidt, outlining the many fields of research open to the true student.

And really shouldn't work at night
