A very old machine, but it looks clean and waiting to be fed at any moment. Yarn spools on the top and the yarn already spun below.
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.

These War Machine figures are no longer in my possession!
This was another commission and I thought I would share!
Hope you like them.
Do you know what The Useless Machine is? Well, this is almost useless machine as The Useless Machine. I don't know why should anyone use this, but I am not so good with technic parts so I am experimenting. When you press one of three buttons on each side rock, paper or
scissors will pop up.
Man the future ain't lookin' so hot... I broke out the old Time Machine and hit the random button and wound up here... The words "whoa!" don't quite describe it. Must've missed the 80's by and over-shot of about 60 years...

This is my mod of the Mystery Machine. I think LEGO did a great job with the set but I wanted the van to be able to fit all of the gang.

The conditions were awesome this morning at Bombo, the swell was big and the tide was high and we were very close to the action, which was pretty sweet. I have no idea were all the clouds were hiding tho, yet again.
I have got a few different shots with the wave action, I might upload later.

A Hawkwind classic (imo) from my younger days.
It flies
Sideways through time
It's an electric line
To your zodiac sign
I've got a silver machine
I've got a silver machine
I've got a silver machine
It flies out of a dream
It's antiseptically clean
You're gonna know where I've been

Waves at Cape Kiwanda along the Oregon Coast toss and turn every which way like a giant washing machine. I actually like having the people at the top as it helps provide scale to this large cauldron of swishy washy water. I was basically on the edge of a small rock cliff into the ocean when I took this. Not a place you want to accidentally fall into as it will surely be your last swim!
For all the times I have been here and as much as I love to photograph it was nice to play on the dunes more than chasing images, for a change. This was one of the few photos I captured over several days. Much of the time was spent hanging out with family. This included sand boarding for the first time. If you have never done it's way fun and a healthy workout. Besides walking up the dunes the board has to be waxed every ride for optimal performance.
New Haven Railroad EMD FL-9 locomotive 2051 & another FL-9 lead what appears to be the Pennsylvania Railroad Senator in yard at Boston, Massachusetts, ca 1960's. As you can see this is a very large passenger car yard. In the background I see a Schlitz Beer Ad sign.

The water motion in this reminds me of a washing machine. When I was a kid I remember being mesmerized by my grandparents front loading washing machine. At home we had a top loader, so it was something new and interesting when I was little.
My Flickr Pro Account expired today. When I went to look at my stats for today I got an ad page, so I went to renew my account for another year. Overall I've been pretty happy with Flickr, so I clicked through to renew my 1-year subscription and eventually got to the end of the process and was presented with this:
"You are about to subscribe to the Yahoo! service listed above. You will be charged the total due, on an auto-renew basis, for each term as shown above, until you cancel."
As a consumer I find this kind of policy offensive. It's a tactic used by second rate companies to collect recurring subscription fees even after a customer stops using the service. Some people find automatic renewal to be convenient, but for them there has always been an option to enroll in auto-renewal. This policy change was enough to get me to take a step back and reassess what I get from Flickr, and how it compares with other sites.
The best feature Flickr Pro offers has no competitive alternative that I know of, and that is unlimited storage of full resolution photos. This is the single feature that has convinced me to renew, at least for now. At some point I am planning to build a gallery with a service like Zenfolio, or Smugmug, or one of the other similar options. Once I do, this Flickr feature will become much less important.
The other feature Flickr has that I enjoy is their groups, but since Google+ added communities I find it to be almost as good. I still think Flickr's groups are better, especially with the way photos are added, but communities are close enough, and the activity and engagement from Google+ communities is actually much better than Flickr.
My Flickr presence had about a 1 year head start on my Google+ presence, so the group I interact with on Flickr was initially much larger. Now that I've spent time on Google+ I've found that my personal community is growing many times faster than on Flickr. It's also much easier to find active relevant and interesting discussions on Google+.
Flickr has Explore, which is a huge opportunity for exposure that doesn't really exist on Google+, and only kind of exists on 500px (if you can get to the front page). The problem is, despite having improved my photography (in my opinion), and definitely increased the engagement I get on the photos I post, the last time I had a photo in explore was March of 2012 (13 months ago). Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to complain about this, and I understand it's a complex algorithm that accounts for many different factors, but if I never have a photo reach explore, it's not a relevant feature to consider when I'm deciding whether or not to continue using Flickr, or renew my Flickr Pro.
The last feature Flickr Pro offers that I do really enjoy is stats. I like to see where my photo views come from. As far as I know, nothing like this exists on other social networks.
Ultimately, I renewed my Flickr Pro for 3 months (instead of the 1-year I was originally planning) and immediately canceled it so it won't auto-renew. In 3 months, I'll reassess my Flickr use, but for now, I'll continue on. But Flickr, I want you to know I'm not happy with your policy changes, and your competition is evolving much faster than you, so our days together may be numbered.
