I carry my time machine with me most of the time, it has come in many forms through the years but it is Music. A song can bring back the smell in the room the first time I heard a song play, music can bring back the taste I had with a food shared with music, a song will bring back vivid memories of friends all along the way. A second that crept in the frame is the camera that captures the moment forever.
Do you want to try it out?
Really Gerrie? You would let Huntley do that?
Shame on you.
I guess we better start learning some bears to read.
Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday
Just mucking around with yesterdays Cornflower and the inside of an old aboriginal hut made from sticks with a touch too much beetle juice for Sunday's slide. HSS
The next few posts are my attempts to create images that draw upon the presence of some of Sugimoto's photographs without trying to feature or interpret them. Appreciation of his works are best done at a gallery exhibition like this one, by exploring the published literature and by taking advantage of their web presence. In this picture I was taken with the quite subdued lighting and the long corridor taking visitors past the Sea of Buddha to a vanishing point marked by another of Sugimoto's photographs
Apart from some fiddling with manual focus, I'm pleased with how the SMC PENTAX (K) 28mm f2 lens performed.
#FlickrFriday #TimeMachine A strange sort of time machine but I was reminded today that people have been standing looking down at this scene, just like I was, for thousands if not millions of years.
Jumping back to 1958 we find N&W class J 611 working a local freight somewhere in Virginia as a young lady moves her 1943 Oliver Model 60 tractor across the farm . . . . .
In reality last Saturday October 5, 2019 during special runs on the Strasburg Railroad in Strasburg, Pennsylvania, doing a pretty good job working the time machine.
For the Sliders Sunday Group. Base image created using a Canon PowerShot camera and processed using Photoshop, Fractalius and Quad Pencil.
Happy Sliders Sunday!
This nightlight timer is probably 40 years old and the nightlight came from an antique store although is not likely an antique.
Marty tells Hermione that she is sad because she can't travel trough time in that little Delorean time machine.
The others make fun of her... "She will never fit in that little Delorean!!! Hahahaha
Hermione has an idea! ;)
Former police box in Glasgow's West End, outside the Botanic Gardens. It's not far from the old BBC Scotland building. I wonder if its proximity to the organisation responsible for Doctor Who is the reason it survives.
Zoom blur from about 70 to 120mm on the lens, franticly clicking away while there was nobody in shot (it's a busy corner).
Post processing - tweaks to levels, crop and straighten, white vignette effect and finally a bit of dodging and burning to tone down distractions.
A square crop of this image (cutting off the traffic light and banner) looks good too.

"And as soon as I had recognized the taste of the piece of madeleine soaked in her decoction of lime-blossom which my aunt used to give me (...) immediately the old grey house upon the street, where her room was, rose up like a stage set to attach itself to the little pavilion opening on to the garden which had been built out behind it for my parents ; and with the house the town, from morning to night and in all weathers, the Square where I used to be sent before lunch, the streets along which I used to run errands, the country roads we took when it was fine. And (…) in that moment all the flowers in our garden and in M. Swann's park, and the water-lilies on the Vivonne and the good folk of the village and their little dwellings and the parish church and the whole of Combray and its surroundings, taking shape and solidity, sprang into being, town and gardens alike, from my cup of tea."
Marcel Proust
In Search of Lost Time
An iconic Victor Talking Machine. Made in 1921 by Victor Victrola Co. Taking us back in time to the "Roaring 20's" when jazz and big bands ruled. There's lots of jazz 78's for this wind up phonograph. It plays 78 RPM vinyl records. It isn't rare since about 185,000 were made. It was made before the company was bought by RCA, becoming RCA Victrola. This wind up phonograph plays surprisingly good music. #TimeMachine #VictorTalkingMachine #Victrola #78RPM #vinyl #HandCrank #WindUp
"Wormholes connect two points in spacetime, which means that they would in principle allow travel in time, as well as in space."
Wikipedia
"Time travel through a wormhole is technically feasible under the rules of theoretical physics—the only catch is that we can only ever go backward."
Newsweek
Looking through an old steel Slinky, itself perhaps a time machine of an earlier era. Exterior lit by multicolored LEDs. "Stars" using the Brush Tool.
