I've always hated cleaning my palette.

 

Subsequently I changed, quite a while ago, to using a glass palette (a broken, recycled, window pane) , -if I forget to clean it & the paint dries on it, run a razor blade scrapper across it and it's good as new.

 

Since then I've found a use for defunct CDs/DVDs, they're great, as disposable palettes, for small amounts of paints and a few colors.

 

Lately I'm trying Glad's, 'Press'n Seal' sealing wrap on my old wooden palette, use it' peel if, toss it. Not bad but I'm not too comfortable with the throwaway culture, will probable stick to glass.

Many of the jeweler's tools are adapted from another profession - for example, dentist's tools are great for jewelry work because they are so precise.

This image is for the challenge from the Flicker group Macro Mondays where the task was to show an image "Straight Out of Camera". I decided that the best way to show this idea was to photograph the old tools that I had still around.

 

In the frame are a roll of film, a stack of Cokin filters, and my Pentax KX camera.

 

Snapped using a Pentax K10D using the smc P-FA 50mm F1.4 lens with a Cokin Diffuser filter and a 13 mm Extension Tube. Shot in raw and used the controls in the camera to process and give a color tint to the JPG.

 

One day, on a whim, I added a hand hoe to an on-line purchase. I've tried all sorts of hand tools in the garden and have been disappointed almost every time. Like my cobra head weeder, most of them are gathering dust. Little did I know how much I would love this tool and how often I would use it. In fast, it's probably my most used garden hand tool.

Nifty tool reminded me of the pretend vacuum cleaners they make for little kids.

Cake decorating tools

For a variety of reasons, I haven’t been getting into the field much lately to get new photos. So, in my boredom, I’ve taken some older images and played with artistic renditions using “filters” and other texturing tools just for the heck of it. Some of the photos I’ve posted before in their natural condition, but some I have not posted previously.

 

This shot was taken in Nebraska near the Platte River one morning in March when the moon was going down as we were heading to an observation deck to watch the sandhill cranes as they were waking up to begin their day.

Even though my parents just moved from New Jersey to Florida, they took an important part of the old house with them. Dad’s old red Craftsman is more of a time capsule than a toolbox, and it immediately transported me back to my dad’s garage. Grease, Gojo hand cleaner, old coffee cans filled with nuts, bolts, washers, and fuses of all shapes and sizes — a vivid picture with an accompanying scent. The lid to the toolbox is always open, displaying a collage of important photos adhered with yellowed Scotch tape. They hold special meaning to my dad, and now, to me. Since I can remember, my dad was always working. He would work all night as a diesel mechanic in Manhattan, driving the empty highways while I was sleeping, then go straight to another job in the morning as a freelance contractor. I remember having to tiptoe around the house when I got home from school, so as not to wake my dad. I know he did it all for me and my brothers, so we could have the things we needed to succeed. My mother always told me, “Your father has hands of gold,” but I never realized how much of an artist my dad was until I became an adult. Until now, I never realized how similar we are. Fixing cars never interested me, but I have inherited the desire to make things better and beautiful, and to create something from nothing. Dad and his toolbox taught me to be my own artist.
