I'm loving this Laowa Macro 2X lens, although focusing is a bit of a challenge. Everything looks darker in the viewfinder than in reality. I wish there was a way around that.
Today we are celebrating our Independence Day. Happy July 4th! Plus.. for this pic, we are celebrating Nuts and Bolts, the challenge of the day for HSoS. Yea nuts & bolts!! What would we do without you? ;-)

Last in the series from AGCM’s special event last September. Great to see machinery like this still capable of running from a time when we were still kings of engineering brilliance and power.

The AGCM was running a special event today where the winding engine was going to be operational, albeit under diesel and compressed air power for an hour. I’ve never seen it run before and only came across the event via Facebook on Friday night.
Always had this image idea in my head given the opportunity to shoot such machines and although very well supported by the local community, I still got my chance to try a few things out... hope you like the end result.
Thanks to Mark Waidson for the title.

My daughter Saskia is a kindergarten teacher. This keychain was made by the children as a father's day gift.

This weeks 'Macro Mondays' effort on the them of 'fasteners'. Not the most original of ideas, but something I'd been wanting to do my take on for a while. The night sky effect was created using the adjustment brush in Lightroom, overexposing areas to create 'stars'. Took ages! HMM y'all!
Victoria Harbour is a natural landform harbour separating Hong Kong Island in the south from the Kowloon Peninsula to the north. The harbour's deep, sheltered waters and strategic location on the South China Sea were instrumental in Hong Kong's establishment as a British colony and its subsequent development as a trading centre. The first reference to what is now called Victoria Harbour is found in Zheng He's sailing maps of the China coast, dated c.1425, which appear in the Wubei Zhi (A Treatise on Armament Technology), a comprehensive 17th-century military book.
What can I say. It's all I've got. (Yes, for the pedants amongst you, I know technically these would be classified as screws not bolts, but as I said above it's all I've got and it's late at night).
I walk my dog in the park at least 3 times a week and this path is on the way out...I've never noticed this bolt in the tarmac before going on my photo walk...and oddly enough, the nut that goes with it is embedded in the path 20 metres away!! Don't look down...not anymore!
