A gift from my parent's friends; from the late 1950's. 35mm works well - odd square aperture.
58-365
This is the statue of Rameses II at Memphis (Egypt, that is, not the home of the Blues). He was so big that, rather than shift him, they built the museum around him.
Single jpeg tone mapped.

Ho vissuto molto, e ora credo di aver trovato cosa occorra per essere felici: una vita tranquilla, appartata, in campagna. Con la possibilità di essere utile con le persone che si lasciano aiutare, e che non sono abituate a ricevere. E un lavoro che si spera possa essere di una qualche utilità; e poi riposo, natura, libri, musica, amore per il prossimo. Questa è la mia idea di felicità. E poi, al di sopra di tutto, tu per compagna, e dei figli forse. Cosa può desiderare di più il cuore di un uomo?

Second time I've seen this one out and about on a weekday.
Had done approaching 132k miles at its last MoT test in 2020, since when it has taken advantage of being exempt.

Fine examples of what where known as "Top shops" the large rear windows allow daylight into the rooms above the family homes of the workers making components for watches - in this case - or ribbon weaving in other areas of the then town such as Hillfields on the other side of the city centre.
Components where placed into boxes and carried to the master watchmakers up the street who made the finished product. Cheap imports from Switzerland along with the lifting of import taxes on cloth threw the town into decline.
This was reversed by a number of factors, firstly,
intervention: Lord Leigh's founding of a Worsted cloth mill in the next street (1862) which marked the beginning of factories as we know them today.
Luck: The start in licenced production of American sewing machines (1861) just as that nation turned over all it's industry to arms production for the civil war.
Opportunism: The start of production of French designed velocipedes just as that country started a war with Prussia (1870-71) setting the french cycle manufacturers back for a while, but propelling Coventry on the road to industrial recovery and the start of the Cycle/Motorcycle/Car industry that still exists in one form or another to this day.

This image was captered with my nikon D80 and 50mm lens with an old sears x4 magnification filter attached. Light provided by my SB800 flash in TTL mode, on camera and position up and slightly back (to compensate for downward angle of the shot) to bounce directly of ceiling.

Bishop Creek Canyon, Eastern Sierras
After three days of camping and photographing as much of Bishop Creek as I could, I think I preferred the reflections at Intake II more than anywhere else. On the final morning, the air was brisk and clear and the water was calm over the pond. I walked the dirt road that runs around Intake II and looked for interesting compositions. Its harder than it seems to find an interesting angle. Something you don't see every season. ;) I used the branches of the aspens that lined the bank of the pond to frame the reflections and distant aspens and the evergreens. I think it worked well to encompass the whole scene.
