These tiny pots are made by the fine woodturning artist Glenn Krueg. Joe and I found them at a gallery in Mendocino called The Highlight Gallery. Aren't they lovely! Featuring real flowers and plants.

Miniature Las Vegas! Next door is Miniature Florida with a launching space shuttle and tornado on the wall. Along with building details, the trains for each area are correct for that region of the world. The American trains do not appear in the other European rooms.
The ending position of units in a game of Warhammer. You'll need to mouse over to find out what exactly is going on here.
We visited 'Miniature World' in Victoria, BC, last year and took a lot of photos while there - i took most of them, and my little point & shoot held up pretty well in dark lit conditions through the crazy reflective glass! lol.
Anyhoo - I was amazed by the detail of the minis in there, and it was a blast to look around and take in all of the little scenes and views. Lovely!

When work did not leave me enough time to make my bunting dream a reality last week, I found I actually could not sleep. And the reality has not disappointed. I am so delighted with my matchboxes full of miniature bunting. See my profile for details of where to find this :)
An Ilford Pan100 film with my Olympus OM-1 MD SLR from Japan (year 1976) and its normal lens G.Zuiko Auto-S 1:1.4 f=50 mm, on April 6, 2023, Lyon, France.
The film was exposed normally for 100 ISO using either the camera built-in TTL lightmeter or an external Minolta Autometer III lightmeter fitted with a 10° finder privileging the shadow areas. The Zuiko lens was equipped with an Asahi Pentax UV-protective 49mm filter and a screw-on generic cylindrical shade hood.
The film was then developed using the Tetenal developer Ultrafin liquid (not the "T-Plus" version) diluted at 1+10 for 7 min at 20°C.

The film was then digitalized using a Sony A7 body adapted to a Minolta Auto Bellows III and a Minolta Slide Duplicator using a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5 at a reproduction ratio of 1:1. The reproduced RAW files obtained were processed in LR prior the the final JPEG editions.
All views of the film are presented in the dedicated album either in the printed framed versions and unframed full-size jpeg.

About the camera :
My Olympus OM-1 D was purchased in a local photography shop in Lyon, France, May 31, 2022.
Olympus OM-1 MD was commercially available from 1974 to 1978 and represented the fully mechanical SLR of a new class ("miniature SLR's") , smaller and lighter than anything ever made before. It prefigured the size of most of the SLR's in the 80's.
The kit included the normal lens G.Zuiko Auto-S 1:1.4 f=50 mm, a Zuiko Auto-Zoom 1/4 f=75-150 mm with Olympus original rigid case, a Sigma Tele-Macro x2 converter, a small flash Olympus PE200 (GN 14 at 100 ISO) with case, A Crystal Titanium x 0.48 wide-angle converter (still never tested), and several 49 mm filters.
This specific camera was constructed in Jan. 1976 according to the printed reference "ス ("su ") 615" on the back of the film plate.
