D18033. With the prospect of a war against Nazi Germany becoming more and more likely during the late 1930s, it was decided that a place of safety needed to be found where the Government and military leaders could carry out their vital tasks in the event of an aerial bombardment.
Storage rooms in a London basement under some Government buildings were therefore hastily converted into office and living accommodation where the Prime Minister and his staff could work in safety. These became known as the Cabinet War Rooms and they are now open to the public as a permanent museum and memorial to wartime leader Winston Churchill.
Amongst the many artefacts on display is this German four rotor Enigma cipher machine.

I wanted to see a new waterfall today and it has got to where I have to drive over a 100 miles to do that as of lately. So I decided to check out Machine Falls in Tennesee because I have had several people tell me how awesome it was. They were not kidding especially with the icicles there. However if visiting you will probably have to wade across the creek to get to the easier access. And folks wonder why I hike in shorts and flip flops.....
This dekonstruktion Photo of a heavy Machine is one of the rare Kind I´m pleased with and the Audience also like... You know, the LightPaintings from the pAn.K.A*esthetik ### Series are tough: they show ugly, unpopular, "bad Things", we usual don´t want to see or notice in everyday Life even though we are addikted to them. (Traines, Kranes, Diggers, Konstruktionsites...)
Mostly we want to see the beauty and neat Side of Life (we´re still so romantik ;O), yet the divine Komedy has another Face as well! Klosed Eyes kan help not to see this sekond Side, but it will still be there after we re-open them! Yes, we kan ignore a lot of Things, see nothing, feel nothing, be superficial `til the End of our Days...Finally we will die away and understand that we´ve waited too long to akcept & enjoy every Part of the World, live the Life before Death, the Religion forget to talk about... (There is only Now!)
These are two Reasons why I do this Artworks: to improve Reality, to show the whole Spektrum. I´m more balanced since I train myself to enjoy the "bad Side" as well and work on both Parts of Life - it´s not about "good or bad" anymore - it´s about "Quality"/Intensity...

A rope making machine at the Scottish Maritime Museum, Irvine.
I shot this to capture the intricate details and textures of this machine. I wanted to illustrate the massive bulk of this old tool.
This is not my usual sort of thing to photograph but last September I had trekked to the head of Loch Tarsan to photograph an old croft (the ruins can be seen in the background) and found this old, rusted piece of equipment. I'm assuming that it is an old agriculture machine but I suppose that it could have been left over from the dam construction (Loch Tarsan is formed by a hydro-dam) or maybe forestry uses.
Across the gulf of space, minds that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us.

El yerno y la nieta de una antigua profesora mía en el instituto. Se sentaron a tomar algo en la misma terraza donde estaba yo con mi familia, cuando vi que sacaron la guitarra pensé en la cámara que llevaba en el bolso para seguir probando el objetivo manual y hacerme más a él, y como mi marido me decía que nunca lo iba a tener más fácil pues me anime a preguntarle a mi antigua profesora si le importaba que les hiciera una foto.
No sólo no le importó, sino que además me dijo que los dos forman un grupo musical, su yerno toca y compone y la nieta canta, una voz preciosa por lo que estoy escuchando en la maqueta que tienen en YouTube y de la que os pongo el enlace. El grupo se llama Acoustic Soul Machine, disfrutad de su música :)

Para completar los datos exif, está hecha con un objetivo fijo Samyang 85 mm, f1.4. La apertura que utilicé estará sobre f3.2.
A machine pistol for tank crews, chambered in 12,7 mm AE ammunition, using a triple stacked magazine, loaded from behind for fast charging.
Also uses a simple crosshair for aiming.
The poor, forgotten third member of the trio of Martian machines from H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds, the Embankment Machine is a digging and excavation automaton built by the Martians and used to shore up the walls of their pit beachhead.
It doesn't get much of a description in the novel, so I've used my imagination.
I have been wanting to make one of these for ages and when I got my last hexie swap from TiggleGiggles I knew what I was going to do with some of the hexes. I wanted to wait until I got my {Urban} homegoods swap package (just in case) to make this for myself.
It's reversible and quilted on the outside and inside, although I like the outside too much to hide it!
One of my favorites back in the Quad Cities was BN's Galesburg/Barstow/Galesburg turn - 13823. In BNSF years the symbol changed to L-ILL823, then CHI823 and eventually I lost track. Back in June 1999, it was a safe bet to find 823 working Barstow at daybreak. For years this was the haunt for SD9's getting away from hump and trimmer duties at Galesburg. This day was no exception as the 6246 had 2 more SD9 sisters and a straight SD40 along for the ride at Barstow, IL.

"Oh yes", he said, "the spitfire... a pretty little toy - but the 109 is the fighting machine".

Some micro stuff rendered with the Mecabricks Renderfarm in free mode.
Almost skeletal remains of an old steam locomotive sits at the end of a line of similar machines, in the Train Cemetery, Uyuni. I get the impression a lot of the removable parts had been taken over time by souvenir hunters and folks decorating their nearby by B&Bs or Hostels, our place apparently had a variety of metal work from here.

It looks like the old loco is either:
756 (FCAB 333) or 751 (FCAB 334) 4-6-2 Henschel Built in 1914.
