As those who live in SLO are familiar, there are a large number of these artfully painted utility boxes. This was one I hadn't noticed before, even though it was done by an acquaintance of mine. Sentiment is one being readily expressed these days.
A fragment of an old utility pole lies discarded near a farmer's field. The outmoded porcelain insulator is still attached and in good condition. This short fragment of the pole has wires wrapped around it as though it had been reused as a fence post.
I recently acquired a Mamiya TLR camera. These photos are from my first roll of film that I ran through it as a test. I decided to go for a walk through the McNally lands in West Waterloo to find some subjects.
Check out an album containing more of my photos shot in 2018.

A utility pole that uses the minifigure zip line handles so that string can be fed through to link multiple poles together. Would work well for layouts I think. It's also made to be pretty sturdy. Free Instructions here: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-50464/MasterBuilderKTC/utility-p...
A small spaceship I imagine being some sort of exploratory vehicle operating out of a larger space station. The build was a fun vessel for messing with angles possible using cheese slopes,
Comments and constructive criticisms are always welcome, and thanks for visiting.

Another utility pole. This one is based off of common North American poles in particular. FREE instructions on Rebricakble: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-66728/MasterBuilderKTC/utility-p...
Hullo, again!
Yesterday I created my first robot/mech/drone that is poseable, but still stands up at the same time. The design can be improved upon of course. I would love to hear any suggestions that you have.
