EXPLORE #11. It was singing so loudly, when my husband caught it and brought it to me! We admired that singer of the nature and then let it go.
This was a "first" for me. I heard this bird singing before I locate it and thought at first that a mockingbird was in the area due to the changing songs being sung. These Thrashers are said to have a repertoire that has more than a 1000 different songs.

"La paternidad de la Singer le llegó a Isaac Merrit por casualidad. Fue el empresario (y a la postre su socio Edward Clark) quien, en 1850, puso en sus manos una torpe máquina de coser para que la perfeccionara. Once días necesitó Isaac para catapultar a la historia aquel primitivo artilugio. Haciendo que la aguja se moviera de forma vertical solucionó el principal problema (los hilos se enredaban). Su prototipo, para uso industrial, daba 200 puntadas por minuto, siete veces más que la mano humana.
Un año después, reunía 40 dólares para registrar su invento; al poco, vendía su primera máquina por 100, y en 1858, el ambicioso Singer desarrollaba la primera máquina de coser doméstica. Sin embargo el éxito económico no llegó pronto. Los hogares norteamericanos le cerraron las puertas porque los maridos que eran quienes decidían en qué se gastaba el dinero no veían necesario invertir en una máquina extravagante, máxime cuando su mujer y su madre cosían la ropa gratis. Singer no cejó en su empeño de popularizar su criatura y, convertido en un showman, recorrió todo el país pedaleando en su máquina de coser y cantando las excelencias de la Singer.
Que en 1860 fuera ya el mayor fabricantes de máquinas de coser en el mundo, se debió, en gran parte, a su pericia como estratega de las ventas. De hecho, para muchos inventó el marketing. «Compre ahora y pague después», es una frase marca de la casa Singer.Isaac Merrit introdujo la financiación en cómodos plazos mensuales y la figura del vendedor que, armado de labia, visitaba a las posibles compradoras de puerta en puerta."

Was doing some street photography last week and came across this store where the door was open to this scene. The ladder was there as it isn't an entrance door to the store. In doing post process for this I could not get the colours right for the RAW version; however it worked well as a monochrome.
If you don't know the singer Leon Bridges check out the you tube video of his hit song 'Coming home'.
A silhouette of the lead singer from one of the many bands that performed at Ya Maka My Weekend. The sunset made for a nice backdrop.

As well as being very successful car makers, Singer made a number of commercial vehicles. This 1931 Singer Van, JU 827, was found in a barn in very poor condition. It was restored by staff at Coventry Transport Museum where it is now on display.

Photo by John, I am taking a close up of the Singer.
The part of this exhibition was the dimming lights, they kept coming and going at random.
While Camping I singed my hand on the fire. Played around with my 35mm Macro and although lighting was poor, got this interesting shot.
Took this one of the lead singer of a local Baltimore band. Used Lightroom preset B and W Flat and worked from there. Worked with the shadows and highlights to clean it up a little bit. Added a vignette on the outside of the frame.
In 1857 the first Singer showroom and headquarters were at 458 Broadway, New York, with 3 manufacturing small plants located around the city. With the original manufacturing plants unable to produce enough sewing machines to satisfy the expanding market, The Singer Company purchased a 32 acre plot of land at Elizabethport, on the outskirts of the town of Elizabeth in New Jersey. In 1872 the Singer Manufacturing Company opened a large purpose built a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. At the time it was aid to have been the largest factory in the world devoted to the manufacture of a single product.
