I haven't been able to get out much lately, so out of boredom, I tried some macro shots of a few of my guitars with the Leica Q2. These shots are all SOOC jpegs with no processing, other than a little cropping in a couple of images.

Well, there's some "old" stuff in here, but mostly just trash. I really need to downsize bigtime this year, but that was my goal last year too and I ended up getting more stuff instead. You see, and year ago I discovered photography and Flickr, and suddenly all my junk became potential photoprops! So this year I need to start deciding what's important to keep and what's not. Time to simplify!

Sometimes people find it easier to put stuff out of sight, rather than throw it completely - you never know when it will come in handy.
This appears to be an eclectic mix of all sorts of stuff, none of which ever came in handy.
Note the date carved on the roof truss.
This is the result of a guy in a Saturn Vue pulling out in front of me, where I didn't quite have enough time to react to miss him completely. Impact at about 45 MPH, air bags deployed, spun the other car completely around. Mangled the hood and fender, broken headlight, grille, bumper cover, cracked wheel, creased door, small crease in the roof suggesting frame damage, air suspension blown out on both sides and control arm broken on the impact side.
The officer at the scene estimated $8000 in damage, and the car wasn't worth anywhere near that, so obviously it was totaled. But it gave its life to protect me; my only injury from the accident was an abrasion on the wrist from the air bag deploying.
The Lincoln emblem from the grille stayed with me as a memento of a car I'll always remember fondly.
have been playing with intentional camera movement (ICM) for one of the ODC topics
this was my flower picture on the computer screen, after the ICM zooming it looks like the flower is jumping out at you
It was so loud yet she is so unconcious. Reminds me of when I was little and I was so sleepy I slept through the circus. My uncle, who paid for me, kept interrupting my sleep yelling over the noise, "I CAN`T BELIEVE HE'S SLEEPING AT THE CIRCUS!"

work inspired by the book "Manhattan Out" by the famous French photographer and Magnum member Raymond Depardon
A subway singer/rapper/comedian (whose name escapes me right now-I'll correct and fix when it comes to me) interviews a train rider about what makes his lady the best girl in the world. Meanwhile, another rider focuses his attentions elsewhere.

This one was parked...and although I'm not a pilot I was able to get this one off the ground with a little help from my handy dandy cutout tool.
Out of Slavery: The Journey to Amazing Grace
Written by Linda Granfield
Illustrated by Janet Wilson
Among John Newton’s many achievements, his greatest legacy would be the most beloved hymn of all: “Amazing Grace.” Previously titled Amazing Grace: The Story of the Hymn, this repackaged book is the story of slavery as well as the man behind the hymn.
Inliyayla roman and byzantine rock fortress (#17)
In the heart of Turkey’s Afyon lies the Phrygian valley, a huge area with a series of mystical caves steeped in ancient history.
Afyon is a central region of Turkey well known for it’s thermal springs, but travel past the spas and you’ll discover the beautiful Phrygian Valley, a huge expanse of hollow caves that have been inhabited for over 7000 years. Still populated to this day, the Phrygian Valley is a wonderful contrast of the ancient with the present, with a thriving farming community working the land around the gorgeous ochre coloured caves and natural rock formations that are scattered across the whole valley. Wandering along the dusty road that goes through the centre of the valley feels like something out of an Indiana Jones film, with huge ancient caves looming on all sides, each containing their own secrets from centuries gone by. Exploring these carved out caverns is utterly fascinating, as each has its own history that tells the story of ancient civilisations that have made the valley their home. One cave holds the carved out graves of a Roman family, with protective engraved stone lions over the door, which have stood the test of time and several different inhabitants. A church from the second century, the era in which the Christians settled in Afyon, has a cathedral-esque interior, stone eaves and worship rooms chiselled deep into the rocks face. Explore the caves some more and you find another tiny space that appears unassuming, but look at the walls through a camera lense and you’ll see the Jesus and the 12 disciples painted onto the stones surface. This phenomenon continues to baffle scientists and is definitely worth the trek up the step hill upon which it sits. The Phrygian Valley also plays host to the fabled King Midas’ castle, a huge rock formation that stands out in the plains that has natural rooms that apparently housed the famous donkey-eared king. If you’ve got strong shoes its well worth climbing up to the top of the rock for unbeatable views of the sweeping valley and its famous‘fairy chimneys’, the colloquial term for rock formations that look uncannily like mushrooms.
