For Macro Mondays - Members Choice - Musical Instruments.

With little time this week to prepare for MM I quickly took a shot of the Machine Heads on one of my guitars this morning.

Happy Macro Monday.

Sewing machine at Standen, a National Trust property near East Grinstead. No information on its provenance, I'm afraid.

Nice to get out this afternoon to the Bathing House at Howick for the high tide, some lovely waves and got quite a few decent shots

Three Days Grace - I Am Machine

Lyrics

Here's to being human

All the pain and suffering

There's beauty in the bleeding

At least you feel something

I wish I knew what it was like

To care enough to carry on

I wish I knew what it was like

To find a place where I belong, but

I am machine, I never sleep

I keep my eyes wide open

I am machine, a part of me

Wishes I could just feel something

I am machine, I never sleep

Until I fix what's broken

I am machine, a part of me

Wishes I could just feel something

Here's to being human

Taking it for granted

The highs and lows of living

To getting second chances

I wish I knew what it was like

To care about what's right or wrong

I wish someone could help me find

Find a place where I belong, but

I am machine, I never sleep

I keep my eyes wide open

I am machine, a part of me

Wishes I could just feel something

I am machine, I never sleep

Until I fix what's broken

I am machine, a part of me

Wishes I could just feel something

It wasn't supposed to be this way

We were meant to feel the pain

I don't like what I am becoming

Wish I could just feel something

I am machine, I never sleep

I keep my eyes wide open

I am machine, a part of me

Wishes I could just feel something

I am machine, I never sleep

Until I fix what's broken

I am machine, a part of me

Wishes I could just feel something

I want to be a machine.

This is the air compressor for the building dry pipe sprinkler system. We need to order a new one.

 

The San Francisco Ferry Building. Designed in 1892, completed in 1898, architect A. Page Brown. The clock tower is 245 ft (75m) tall. The Ferry Building survived the 1906 earthquake and fire although most of this area was destroyed.

Pilot Stu Goldspink, with his hand on the lever.

A Bristol Boxkite, designed in 1910, this replica was made in the mid-1960s for the movie 'Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines'

I wonder how long it takes to check the tension on all those bracing cables.....

The Boxkite was a relatively successful 2-seat training aircraft of its day, with 87 being constructed in the years before WW1. It can achieve a dizzying speed of approx 40mph/64km/h.

It is owned and operated by The Shuttleworth Collection in Bedford, England.

This is actually the Grotto Geyser. It has a look to me that resembles the inside of a washing machine. The water thrashes around inside of it.

The light shifting through the window is the glow from the forest fires on the west coast of the US specifically in Oregon.

this thing is actually bright yellow and almost cheerful in appearance, sometimes I can' t help myself.... Happy Truck Thursday!

Stu was out there after the snow stopped coming down to clean up the snow. This photo "really" shows how much snow is out there. We have 15 mph gusts of wind as well. I'm so happy we bought a Toro. It's a great snowblower and has the strength to do the job! We got around 13" of snow here today. Glad we got this size snowblower, a smaller one wouldn't have been adequate for the amounts of snow we get and the size of our driveway.

The dunlin moves along the coastal beaches it prefers with a characteristic "sewing machine" feeding action, methodically picking small food items. Insects form the main part of the dunlin's diet on the nesting grounds; it eats molluscs, worms and crustaceans in coastal areas.

 

La notte ascolto le macchine

su per la salita e passano le ore.

Non ho altro da offrirmi

che il rumore dei motori

il raschio delle ruote

i tonfi sordi sui tombini.

E vanno, sono sempre andate.

C’erano i camion

dal di dietro largo,

alti, dopo la scuola,

con la nuvola di nafta,

i motocarri sporchi con la legna

i mobili i rottami.

Tutto puzza di olio e di benzina,

di gente che si muove,

di carcasse nei cimiteri

sotto la pioggia, dove l’erba

spunta cieca tra le gomme,

i radiatori, gli avantreni

sfondati, le portiere sghembe,

i fari spalancati.

È inutile pensarci, poi le schiacciano,

ne fanno altre. Ci sono degli oceani

di macchine. Paesaggi colorati.

Arrivano e si fermano,

la notte. Fanno compagnia.

Qualcuno scende e chiude.

Avranno il muso caldo per un pezzo,

nel silenzio. Un’alba le disegna

immobili con i sedili vuoti.
