For Flickr Friday's theme, "Keep It Simple," I decided to use my Russian Zorki 4 rangefinder camera as the subject. This camera is very simple, all of the controls are on the top (apart from the lens controls and the self timer, which are on the front of the camera). No buttons or LCD screen on the back, and there's no place to put batteries. Needless to say, this camera does not even have any type of metering. Now that's simple!
Lighting was also kept simple. The Zorki was taken on the carpet of my living room, with the sunlight peeking through the curtained window as its light source. This gave me the contrast needed to accentuate the top of the camera, its controls, and its simplicity, while keeping the rest of the camera in a moderate shadow.

I would posit that a timer is an intregal part of many games!! (It might be better on a level surface, though. giggling) ……. #MacroMondays #gamepieces
By the way, the admin in charge for this week has decided that the timer could be considered an integral part of the game
…..…💙♟️HMM ♟️💙
Late again so this is a recap of the past week - I am now into week 33!
Not looking as happy as I should in this pic as I had to use the point and shoot and I miss the Canon :(
Happy Sunday everyone! I've been tired and busy but I will get around to your streams soon.

The result from a photoshoot with me and my Canon. I used a timer, but had a hard time jumping at the right time. This picture was practically the only one where my feet were off the ground, haha, I'm good :)
I love taking photos of photographers taking photos. This photographer first took a photo of a companion standing the mist at the base of Skógarfoss in South Iceland. In order to get his shot and avoid the crowds gathered at the bas of the falls he took his shot while standing in the Skógá River. After some coaxing, he got his subject to stand on some rocks at the edge of the river while he set up the shot and took a number of images. After a while he set a timer shutter release and joined her in the photo. Originally, she looked a little aprehensive but became animated when he joined her in the photo The waterfall is the last and most spectacular of a series of falls that are found on the Skógá River as it heads down the edge Eyjafjöll ( The Island Mountains). As it falls over the last cliff it creates a falls 203 feet high (62 meters) and almost 50 feet (15 meters) wide.

This is the only timer Jolly Roger uses now, After switching back to Stamar Electronics with their timers, They used System 4000. Which is a Plug n Play Timer. Now i don't know what Ride sound it has in the timer. Now it has 3 Dipswitch settings. One is the pricing of the ride, Two is the duration of the ride, And the last is other, Attract mode and whatever. Now notice that it says Speech Prompts, This is technically the announcements and you can see that there is the option if you want the announcements disabled, This is the reason why some rides may not play the announcements. I Think you can do the same on Soundmaster too. Now what's weird is that Not all but some Jolly roger rides, They put the timer behind the dashboard.
UPDATE: After looking at it, the ride says "BOB". But the person who wrote this didn't make it clear if it was Scoop or Roley.
at six finger falls.
getting good use from the 10 second timer on the 60d.

6/26/2018 Old-timers at the Seaside Handball Courts at Coney Island. Sony a7. Konica Hexanon AR 40mm 1:1.8.
Asked someone a very simple question the other day.
And it was actually very innocent of me. You see I was rather impressed with the myriad of clothing he/she has. And I wanted to compliment. I thought to have a wardrobe that intense, You would surely must be living full time female.
Simple. And people here know I view life in it's most simple ways.
well I got back this message talking about I'm this and and I'm that and finally coming to the final stroke of genius from Mr./Mrs. Sanctimonious ( I'll leave that to you out there) the question. Who am I and how do I live..........
I've answered this question a thousand times. I am Raven. I am a female. I live as a female 24/7. I work as a female. Not as a hooker. But as a well paid Construction Consultant. I go to gym as female' I shop as a female. I live everyday life as a female. For 17 years, wearing female attire. Always female in public and private.
See....... It's not a hard question to answer. And one last point. I do not think it's for everyone. Quite the opposite. Its filled with lots of disappointment and heartache. And I respect those who do very much. But to the part timers. I understand that completely also.
The bottom line is we're all made by God. And if he didn't want. He wouldn't have put that in our DNA. And as long as you don't harm another person, including yourself. Go for it.
I choose this pic for a reason. This is me at home. Just a girl lying around relaxing watching the tube..... Can't be more female than that
Last Night’s efforts with the 14-24.
Despite this shot which I just managed to salvage it was a fiasco! I left my remote release at home, and then lost my glasses. 1 hour into the shoot (I was shooting at 30 secs at F2.8 1600 ISO)and after 150 shots I checked the LCD only to find a black hole in the centre. This can’t be right I thought and then checked the front of the lens only to find that I has wasted about 60 shots because the dammed great goggle front element had attracted a large quantity of condensation! I completed the shoot by shooting manually and rubbing the element after every shot: BUT I then kicked the tripod 3 times over the next hour.
I learnt a lot!
Not least thing to learn is that composition of something like this is obviously hard and takes time, practice and the inevitable errors. the trick is obviously to try and find the SCR - the Southern Celestial Rotation pole. once you have that - as above - it makes the composition (merely....?) a question of where you place the rotational point. My preference with the above would be to either have the SCR in the middle of the dish, or, in the top left third of the frame.
My advice is to do an intial 30 minute exposure which is enough to find the rotation point, then recompose and then either do a series of 30 minute exposures, or as I did here, approx 120-240 multiple exposures (just set your camera to a 30 secs exposure and lock down your remote release cable or use a timer if you have one on the camera) you can then merge the resulting files in photoshop or use one something like www.startrails.de. Obviously the longer the better but one needs plenty of batteries and on a windless night one takes a continual risk that the lens will fog as it did with me.

The Zeiss Ikon Contessa series started in 1950 and got various upgrades and re-modelings up to 1971. The early models were folding type, others made after 1960 were compact type. Zeiss cameras were very well made - even the cheaper versions, like the Contessa LBE.
Variants: There are several variants.
Zeiss Ikon was formed in 1926 out of the merger of five companies: Carl Zeiss/Jena A.G., ICA A.G., Erneman A.G., Goerz A.G, and Contessa-Nettel A.G. and was a huge corporation with offices in five cities in Germany.
The main company Carl Zeiss is most famous with designs as the Tessar and T* coating. Even now, Carl Zeiss lenses are on the many best cameras from Contax to Hasselblad.
After World War II the Soviet occupied territory included both Jena and Dresden.
At that times there were two Zeiss Ikon: One in Soviet occupied East Germany with lens and cameras manufacturing in Dresden and Jena, and a second Zeiss Ikon based in Stuttgart in the US occupied West Germany, at the old Contessa Nettel factory.
After 1959, The state owned factories in Dresden and Jena evolved into Pentacon VEB and lens manufacturing at Jena still called Carl Zeiss Jena.
In 1972, Stutgart Zeiss formed into a partnership with Yashica Corporation of Japan. Zeiss now only does lens design and makes a small amount of photographic lenses. Yashica manufactured the Contax series of Zeiss cameras.
Went to workshops today to have something 'fixed' in on of my on board computers... Saw these guys sitting in the yard. Guess their time is up for now!
Wonder where they will end up?
Notice subtle differences between them... How many can you spot? ;-) (add notes)
Sheffield ambulance workshops...
I work for Yorkshire Ambulance Service on the RRVs in and around the city of Sheffield in South Yorkshire.
It’s a great job and I feel very honoured to be able to help people at their point of need.
Check out the website for all sorts of info re YAS and the work we do.
Seemed appropriate since I'm on my way to rehearsal.
No time for processing except to crop. Natural light.
I like the light fall off on this one.

Brilliant white shell-sand, with grains of egg-timer fineness.
Marram grass on pillow-mound dunes.
Distant views of the mountains of Morar and Knoydart.
Pyramidal peak of Sgùrr na Ciche,*
an iconic landmark for miles around, peeks above the dunes.
Such is Camusdarach, a sumptuous beach, amongst 35 others, along the Morar and Arisaig coast.
The views to the Black Cuillins of Skye
and the mountainous Isles of Rum and Eigg
are sublime, exquisite and magnificent.
The sunsets here are simply breath-taking.
Few people visiting here, fail to return.
Two people on one beach and three on another,

With little doubt, it is one of the most staggering and
captivating stretches of natural coastline, in the world.

A lifetime ago, back when I was a working woman, we once used this 3-minute timer to control how long people spoke at a function. Makes me laugh to think how antiquated that seems with iPhones, iPads, etc. with timers now.
I am back---just can't get back in Flickr routine . Busy catching up with Hadley......
