This old rusted tanker was spotted on a roadside in Wyoming! What ever it hauled is obviously obsolete and no longer deliverable ..but it still has a nice rusty patina!
Happy Truck Thursday!

Baedeker's "Car Travel Guide Upper Italy" (Autoreiseführer Oberitalien) in the seventh edition is from 1967/68. The Nikkormat FT came on the market in 1965.
This cool piece of vintage tech still works, no idea of its age but it still meters!
EDIT:
This edition, the Leningrad 4 light meter, was manufactured around 1968, in the former USSR.

For Macro Monday - Contraption.
I was struggling to come up with something for this challenge, then I had to retrieve something from a dark corner of my shed and spotted an old domestic cassette player. Once state of the art, in the 1970's, for home entertainment, now obsolete! This is the drive mechanism, belt driven to make it all work!
Happy Macro Monday!!
I saw this old and weathered fisherman's boat in the clear blue waters at Pachi and the catchy Terminator phrase popped in mind, so I thought it would be appropriate to title my photo with it.
Happy Sliders Sunday everyone and a beautiful, sunny day to all :)))

ruins of the royal castle in Olsztyn
The ruins of a 14th-century castle are one of the biggest attractions of the area. The castle, located on a hill, among limestone rocks, is part of the Trail of the Eagles' Nests. It belonged to a system of fortifications, built by King Kazimierz Wielki, to protect western Lesser Poland from Czechs, to whom Silesia belonged at that time. For some time, as a fee, it belonged to Prince Władysław Opolczyk. Taken away from him in 1396, the castle was then handed by King Władysław Jagiełło to a local nobleman, Jan Odrowąż of Szczekociny. The castle was invaded several times by Silesian princes in the 15th century, and with the advancement of warfare, its fortifications became obsolete. In 1655, it was captured by the Swedes, and since then, it became a ruin. In 1722, it was partly demolished, with bricks used to build a parish church at Olsztyn. Currently, only fragments of defensive walls remain. The most impressive still standing part of the castle is a 35-meter round tower, built in the 13th century, which served as a prison.

47318 in scruffy original Railfreight livery bowls west along the Wylye Valley with 6v62, the Fawley to Tavistock Junction combined oil and bitumen working.
The evolution of locomotive liveries used to haul freight trains in the UK is long and complex.
In 1965 ‘rail blue’ was introduced and this livery was used thereafter for all rolling stock.
Although the ‘Large Logo’ livery variation started to be used from 1978, this was not intended specifically for freight usage.
The livery shown here was the first one applied in modern times uniquely for freight use. First unveiled on the first class 58 in December 1982, it was applied to a class 47 (47050) for the first time in the summer of 1985. However, this variation was short-lived: in September 1985 the design was updated to include a broad red stripe along the lower bodyside of the locomotives.
In consequence, this livery was relatively uncommon. Both variations became obsolete in 1987 with the launch of Roundel Design Group’s ‘Triple grey’ livery.
This is a close up of the lens arrangement of my new (very old) mid 1950s Carl Zeiss Werra 1. It’s a minimalist rangefinder (replete with olive green leatherette) style 35mm camera that I fell in love at first sight with at a local antique shop that seems to have sprung up in a local town.
It may be minimal but it is the most complicated thing to operate ever, and have had to look at so many YouTube videos just to get film into it and shoot a few frames! It seems to wind on but the shutter sounds suspiciously the same no matter what I set it to so it could well be #Outdated or #Knackered
I (eventually) loaded in a 36 exposure film, but with the weather being absolutely atrocious at the moment it may be a while before I find out if it’s a runner or not! It’s the first time ever I’ve had to use a light metre to work out the exposure, even my 1970s Chinon SLR has a rudimentary one built in, luckily there’s an app for that!
