Detail of the -
Built in 1561 through to 1566, the Astronomical Clock is considered to be a real treasure of both art history and sacred history. It was located behind the High Altar in the ambulatory but was completely destroyed in 1942. Only one dial (which had been replaced with an earlier restoration) remains in the St. Annen Museum. The new Astronomical Clock was constructed on the East side of the Northern transept in the "Death dance" chapel. It is the work of Paul Behrens, a clockmaker in Lübeck, who planned it as his lifetime achievement from 1960 - 1967, collected donations for it and constructed the elements of the clock himself. He also maintained the clock until his death. The clockface is a simplified duplicate of the original. With a complicated mechanical system, the clock shows planetary positions, phases of the sun and moon, signs of the zodiac (astronomically, not astrologically), the date on which Easter falls and the Golden Ratio. At 12 o'clock midday the bells ring out and the movement of the figures before Christ consecrating spurs into action. The figures were originally Electors; after post-war reconstruction they are now eight representatives of the different races and peoples of the world.

This is a photograph leftover from my project 365 that I did. I have hundreds of unused photographs from the project 365 that I haven't even edited yet. When I get bored, I troll through my archive of photographs from my project 365. I shot over 20,000 shutter actuations on my D200 during the course of my project 365. How do I know the approximate amount of shutter actuations I took during the 365? I looked at the embedded shutter actuation information on my 1st photograph of from my 365 and subtracted that number from the shutter actuation number on the last photograph I took for my 365. Adobe Photoshop can read the shutter and display the shutter actuation number embedded in a RAW file. There were plenty of days when I had no client to photograph, so I did a creative self portrait for that day. You can view my entire project 365 at www.eaphotography.us/blog.

My son-in-law has a side business shaping boards. This is the first one my daughter shaped and finished.
"Project 7 is a single-seater sports car based on the F-TYPE, with the kind of racing-inspired form that designers dream about. It has one purpose: to be driven fast and enjoyed.Jaguar sports cars are known for exceptional performance and clean design. Project 7 captures that spirit in its purest form."

It's day one of my Project 365! I've been thinking about doing this for some time, and read an article the other day that said if you've been doing that, it's probably time to stop thinking, and start the challenge. So, here we go! I'll throw a little info about each picture as I post it moving forward...
This is my preferred Saturday and Sunday morning post, generally involving a cup of coffee and a book. However, my new, and first legitimate, flash arrived last night, so I was getting to know it this morning.
Just prior to jettisoning the escape tower, the second stage engines take over.

The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall, England. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 km (1.2 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 km (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining domes that house thousands of plant species, and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The largest of the two biomes simulates a Rainforest environment and the second, a Mediterranean environment. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.

My friend, Lucy, is visiting this morning, while her partner teaches a class up the coast. We walked to the beach for a bit of fresh air and spotted these kite surfers. We didn't stay out for long - it was windy and my cold has moved to my chest. So the fresh air was a good idea but being out too long was not.

first shot using the impossible project film
subsequent shots have been a lil better as ive learned you REALLY have to shield the film immediately as it ejects. this one i sort of slowly put it in my pocket.
each shot seems to vary a bit, but im liking it overall. if it wasnt so expensive id buy a ton of it to stock up again.
this is a cool intersection in germantown, (phila) ive always loved. its pretty cutty back block-ish but everyone seems to keep preserving this ivy growth and just trimming out a hole for the stop sign.
The Asian Highway, a project initiated in 1958 by ECAFE, aims at modernizing and linking up existing roads into a 34,000 miles network of highways that would span Asia from Turkey and Iraq to the Republic of Viet-Nam, Singapore and Indonesia. The Highway network will service an area of some 2,500,000 square miles with a population of over six hundred million. Priority Route A-I (about 6,500 miles) runs from Saigon through eight countries: The Republic of Viet-Nam, Cambodia, Thailand, Burma, India, East and West Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran, to the Turkish border, where connections can be made to the highway systems of the Middle East and Europe. Priority Route A-2 (about 7,600 miles) runs from the Iraq border to Singapore, through Iran, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Burma, Thailand and Malaysia, continuing into Indonesia where, after a ferry crossing from Singapore to Djakarta, it will run the whole length of the island to Java. Member governments have already invested large sums in an effort to improve the standards of the roads within their borders, and some have undertaken to eliminate the missing links between them and their neighbours.
A-1 route of the Asian Highway some 15 miles from Kabul. Construction of this road began about 20 years ago, virtually without any mechanical help. The road, which is almost completed, leads to the Khyber Pass. Some sections of the major roads in Afghanistan are being built under bilateral programmes.

Today is a cold blustery day, gusty winds and snow flurries. Found this fence up the road by the creek, I loved the reflections of the trees in the water.
(still trying to figure out this new camera, I see it has the date/time wrong so I'll have to check into that)
Have a great weekend everyone!

A shot of my latest project after a complete restoration!
The radio is a 1946 Sonora RCU-208 AM Radio that was purchased by my grandparents (hence the name chane to a KENYON radio!) when it was new! My mother use to listen to radio shows on it when she was a kid along with her brother and three sisters and it was given to my mother after they passed away. It has spent the last 10 to 15 years sitting in a dark corner of closet and has not worked in many many years.
If you are interested in the details of what all I have done to it to not only restore it to working condition, but integrate a micro-controlled MP3 Player to mimic several old radio stations from the time that this radio was new, you can check out the write up on it at: mycrazycorner.com/?page_id=528
