The BBC's Maida Vale studios have hosted some of the world's finest musicians, from The Beatles to Dizzee Rascal. In 2009 the BBC celebrated 75 years of Maida Vale. It's also a maze to navigate, & I get lost everytime I'm in the building.

An old key from my wife's collection, above a modern one.

This pair of matched keys has been in our junk drawer for years. We have absolutely no idea what they're for.
A quick high key shot for the Macro Mondays Flickr group. In this case, the tines of an iridescent fork.

For our last night in Key West we decided to head to Mallory Square to join locals and fellow tourists for the nightly sunset party- and oh what a spectacular sunset it was. Pictured is one of the sunset cruise boats returning to dock. We had considered taking one of the cruises but I think I preferred the view from the shore.
Looking south west towards the Straits of Florida, where the Caribbean Sea meets the Gulf of Mexico from the beach at The Reach on Simonton Street, another spectacular spot to take in a world famous Key West sunset. Key West, Florida, USA.
Mirando al suroeste hacia el Estrecho de Florida, donde el Mar Caribe se encuentra con el Golfo de México desde la playa de The Reach sobre Calle Simonton, otro lugar espectacular para disfrutar de las famosas entrada del sol en Key West. Cayo Hueso, Florida, Estados Unidos.
A large population of feral chickens inhabit Key West, Florida, reminders of the days when cock fighting was a sport on the island, and Ernest Hemingway spent hours in the local bars. Generations of released/escaped "Cubalaya" roosters have "cock-a-doodle-do-ed" their freedom and roamed free.
This handsome fellow is protected by law, but is not admired by all of the current residents of Key West. The chickens do provide local "color" and a link to the romantic past of Key West, but they are also noisy and messy. For now the Rhode Island Red hens/roosters still "rule the roost."
Looking across the public square at this tower, as we enjoyed sightseeing through the city on this Holiday weekend.
When I am stuck for ideas I sometimes flip through old magazines to see if I can duplicate an image. This was inspired by an old ad.

Our first time trying this beautiful seaside resort. It was fantastic!
The mini-suite with kitchenette was terrific and newly renovated. Professional staff following all the Covid-19 guidelines, and this was the view from our 2nd floor balcony. We would definitely stay there again! Would highly recommend it. Come and visit the Florida Keys.

A macro view of a single key. The frame spans one-inch across.
This is the first of two images in this subject of "keys." Here is the other image.
Strobist/technical info:
The scene is a 13-image focus stack composite. It was illuminated by two Nikon SB900 speedlights, placed 50° CL and 40° CR two-feet away from and one-foot above the subject. They were fired in Manual mode @ ¼ +0.7EV power through Neewer 24" x 24" soft boxes.
The SB900's were triggered by three PocketWizard Plus X's.
Lens: Tokina AT - X M100 AF PRO D (AF 100mm f / 2.8 Macro) with 12mm extension tube attached.
It is hard to get an appreciation of their size with nothing to scale them against but that leave in the corner will give you some estimate.
On a recent photo trip through the Florida Keys we made a stop at the National Key Deer Refuge on Big Pine Key. We didn't see a lot of deer as usual but we did come across these two fawns which were about the size of a poodle..
The endangered Key deer is the smallest subspecies of the North American white-tailed deer. About the size of a large dog, the males may reach a shoulder height of one meter and 85 lbs but the females are much smaller.
Poaching and habitat loss reduced their number to a few dozen in the 1950s but establishment of the refuge and proper management has increased their number to about a thousand.
Key deer may be found on 20-25 islands of the lower Keys but 75% of the population lives on Big Pine and No Name Key.

This is my second go at taking pictures of keys.
The first hook holds the keys to William Evans' desk: the drawers and the secret compartment. William was born in 1849, but I don't know when he decided he needed a desk.
The next hook back holds the keys to the cottage that used to belong to my great aunt, WIlliam's grand-daughter. These are probably not all that old but certainly serve no purpose any more. They live in the desk.
The desk keys are probably the oldest things I own, although I feel more like they are just in my care for a while. And I am only guessing that the keys were made before the desk, which of course is still going strong.
