GHH mining machine underground shovel, when they were introduced in the Monteponi mine, helped to make the work lighter and faster. He wouldn't mind seeing it displayed in a protected area and not exposed to the elements. A machine created to work indoors that ends its "career" outdoors. The most interesting part are the reinforcements made by hand welding along the entire profile of the blade of the shovel. Although not a certainly functional artistic work; this is proof of the mastery and skills that the staff had acquired in working in a mine like this.

  

Pala da sottosuolo GHH mining machine, quando vennero introdotte nella miniera di Monteponi aiutarono a rendere il lavoro più leggero e veloce. Non sabbe male vederla esposta in una zona protetta e non esposta alle intemperie. Una macchina che nasce per lavorare al chiuso che finisce al sua "carriera" all'aria aperta. La parte più interessante sono i rinforzi realizzati con saldatura a mano lungo tutto il profilo della lama della pala. Seppure non un lavoro artistico sicuramente funzionale; questo a riprova della maestria e delle competenze che il personale aveva acquisito nel lavorare in una miniera come questa.

This is one of five machines who build the channel tunnel dover to calais.

Abandoned brick factory

It seems to be some kind of business that predicts a person's fortune.

I'm not interested.

However, it seems to be all the rage among the younger generation.

If anyone knows what this does, please let me know...

Twenty first build in my Iron Builder samurai showdown with Kyubi.

Special ingredient is some sort of micro ball joint combo breaker.

 

This weekend I made a new cotton canvas cover for my trusty sewing machine and added an embroidered felt birdie to keep me company.

i have no idea why we were in that spot during the time, i forgot. but still, each moment where we're waiting, like this one, is worth a few shots.

i had to remove that terrible restroom sign above his head, otherwise the image was simply not showable.

The textile factory with weaving mill and spinning mill is located in the heart of a new cultural quarter between Bocholt city center and Lake Aasee. The two locations of the Industrial Museum are connected by a bridge over the River Aa. In the imposing halls of the historic Herding spinning mill, you can gain exciting insights into historic and modern technology, experience the history of fashion and current design.

 

Have you ever seen the movie "Fury" starring Brad Pitt? Well, this is the leading tank from the cast.

 

This tank and many others can be found in the Tank Museum, Bovington, Dorset, England. I visited back in June of 2016 and I highly recommend it. As a pacifist, I have to say that I am no supporter or war or violence and I was very much delighted that there was no glorification at this museum, just honest straight hard facts. The exhibits were well displayed and it was easy to get up close with them.

Nothing special.

I've made and repaired clothes with this machine for years. It's a great appliance to have.

WW2 code machine with shallow DOF

Soundtrack: V.A.C. - "malfunction"

 

- somehow a "brother-in-spirit" of this one: though (oh well...) I am at least knee-deep into technology of all sorts and kinds, somehow I wonder how it actually works - man controlling machine? This device (an office-building-sized coal excavator) is just, well, sort of a "mountain of steel", making you feel awfully small, pondering what might happen if machines like these actually get out of hands...

For Macro Mondays: Oldest Object You Can Find

 

[Explored 12/8/2015]

Hacia mucho que no subia una maquina de estas que en su dia trabajaban a lo loco y que ahora estan olvidadas oxidandose. Esta es fruto de la casualidad, vas a una localización buscando un cacharrito y te encuentras dos.

Como siempre trabajo en equipo, con la compañia de Daniel Pastor.

Well, back to the old sketchbook for inspiration. Could you use a boring machine to move around the ice? Underneath the snow or on the surface? Ah who cares, it looks hellacool!

Lección primera: en toda fotografía hay mas de cuatro dimensiones y toda cámara de fotos es una máquina de tiempo.

spotted this classic car, beautiful.

Part of a historical calculator (recreated).

I added a sink because it looked too empty without one...

Obviously from a previous summer.

 

Prospects for macro work THIS summer are greatly diminished I fear. The two gardens where I do most of my insect / flower photography are both out of commission; thank you covid. The historic mansion grounds, originally set to re-open June 1, remain closed and padlocked, with the resurgence of the little virii. Future uncertain.

 

The city gardens...not fenced or gated, just stand untended. Untilled plots, browning dead weeds...sad. And the word I was given was that no summer workers are going to be hired this year AND volunteers wouldn't be used either. That left a three person crew...and that crew is just too small for this large area.

 

All of this is subject to change at some point, but for now, my go to macro sites are DON'T GO TO.
