These bring back memories of my mining days. For my friends that asked, yes, I worked in a gold mine.
Candid photography, Prescott, Arizona. When l played harmonica, I had to take any job that came along; when I switched to guitar, I could take my pick.

Baking and sharing the loaves helps me be a better baker and friend. Grateful that we have high quality and organic grains and a local miller to get our flours from.
Back when I was teaching, one of the things that kept me sane were my pens. Marking assignments and writing reports (back before computers) seemed more pleasurable when using a decent pen, sometimes a fine-tipped Parker ballpoint but often a fountain pen. While this was not my first fountain pen, it did become a favourite. Sadly, it hadn't been used for several years as emails and messages now constitute most of my text communication, but as I still have ink, I enjoyed writing a few assignment comments on paper before this shot.

Earlier this year I was introduced to this hobby and I was instantly hooked A grown up treasure hunt that you can do everywhere!!! WHY WOULD YOU NOT??!!! I've learned a lot, found some friends to take with me and I don't plan on looking back. This hobby is full of adventures and I plan to go on as many as I can!

I had a lot of fun doing this Picture This! assignment. The topic for this week was "Tools Of The Trade" and I chose to make it a simple photo of one of my camera lenses. The fun part was figuring out how to photograph a simple object in a way to make it an interesting photo. I think I did that. Well, at least to me it is an interesting photo. Kind of looks like something you would see on a brochure or ad for Canon lenses. :-)
By the way, this is now the wallpaper on my desktop!

I visited the M & S Schmalberg studio, they custom manufacture fabric flowers for high end designers as well as sell on etsy. The owner gave us the tour which was fun and informative.
Here you see some of the forms that are used in the manufacturing process.

Some tools of the trade from the resident chef - my BH. I liked the light play in this shot and hope it has some appeal.
It also fits in with the name I chose for a blog I've started to cover things that interest me. The connection is really a coincidence as I created and named the blog after taking this shot and it only occurred to me to tie the two together when I started typing the description for the photo. Flickr and photography will definitely be regular topics and I am blogging some photos that I would rather not "clutter up" my Flickr stream. The blog is called Slices of Ron and is at sliceofron.blogspot.com.
Hope everyone is having a great Thursday! Thanks as always for the visits and friendship. Only two more nights until the house guests move out!

I was asked what tools I used to sculpt. Here they are.
Most of them are clay sculpting tools. I also use the engraver tool. The black cylinder is used for rolling. The jar is filled with oil to prevent sticking. The greenstuff can be purchased on ebay. I stick my greenstuff in the freezer when I am not using it (because it supposedly lasts longer).

Thanks everyone for the kind comments, and faves! :)
This photo was taken for theme "Tools of the Trade" in The Flickr Lounge .
One of my many hobbies include electronic tinkering from time to time. It has been a long time since I have made anything, think about a year already. Seen here are some of the tools I use. The Tektronix Oscilloscope (model TDS210) was given to me as a go-away present from my former boss whom migrated to Nieuw Zeeland. He gave me quite a lot of equipment for helping him sort and pack his things for the migration. The weller soldering iron was also one of the items as well as the multi-meter.
Photo taken at Randfontein in South Africa.
Using the Nikon Nikkor AF-P 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 G VR DX (kit) lens.
I Shoot Raw and edit in GIMP.
I am open to critique.
Comments are welcomed.
Theme Rules:
Just like in 1:1 scale life, dolls need the right skills, instruments, and equipment to do any job properly. For this theme, show us your doll at work or pursuing his/her hobby with all the necessary equipment or supplies at her fingertips. Does your doll spend most days inside his art studio filled with canvases, paint, and brushes? Does she rebuild engines and has a garage filled with wrenches, screwdrivers, and an air compressor? Maybe we'll find your doll on the farm surrounded by tractors, wheelbarrows, and shovels. Or maybe all your doll needs is a laptop, a thesaurus, and a vivid imagination to finish writing that epic novel! From start to finish, tools make many projects and tasks possible. Let's get ready to ooh and ahh over all those dolly diorama details!
About this photo:
Wolverine the lumberjack. Channeling "X-MEN Origins: Wolverine" for this theme. Wish I had a flannel shirt for this, but I still think he looks pretty handsome in this blue sweater. ;)

Asahi Pentax H2 (ca.1961) with its Auto-Takumar 1:2/55 lens
The Pentax Guide, written by W. D. Emanuel, was published by the Focal Press (London and New York) in 1960. This is the second edition, printed in London in 1961 and purchased by my father in New Zealand. He was at that time very much a Rolleiflex photographer, but acquired a Pentax and a 500mm Tele-Takumar lens to photograph cricket.
