Self-portrait
Echoes of who I used to be. Artifacts left behind. Pieces of me scattered by those who stole a part and callously discarded it. Who will ever put me back together again?

A powerful instrument of vitality. The heart can be removed. I was out of control with the NPUs but it looks very accurate. *COMMISSION for a customer.
This high cave (on 1675 m) in Olševa mountain is a famous paleontologic site. It was inhabited as early as 35.000 years ago, in the Upper Paleolithic. Its role was as a hunting station, but possibly also as a ritual place. In addition to a lot of animal artifacts, they found also tools, 123 arrowheads, a controversial bone flute, and one of the world's oldest sewing needles.
my last shot with Polaroid Originals Spectra film, unless they manage to bring it back. This shot is the closest looking to older style Polaroids I have taken...they did a great job with chemical formulation. Too bad there are problems with film ejecting with some Spectra cameras and they took it off market to try and resolve the problem.
The Dutch National Museum of Antiquities (Rijksmuseum van Oudheden) in Leiden has a new Summer exhibition called ‘Adventure along the Nile’. Families with kids are invited to go on an adventure and explore the most special places along the banks of the Nile. One of those important sites is Amarna where the famous bust of Nefertiti was found. I am very proud and honoured that my LEGO® Nefertiti got a place right next to the Museum’s replica. Awesome!

Astronauts in the distant future dig up a curious artifact from the early days of space exploration.
I unearthed (or should I say unmooned?) this 1 x 6 x 5 brick with LL2079 rocket and moon pattern, which appeared in one set 40 years ago, while digging through my drawer of decorated bricks in search of something entirely different. It's older than I am, so I don't know where I got it. It's suffered quite a bit of wear and tear over the years and would no longer look great in its intended use, so I decided to do something different that would make its condition work with the build.
Although this is a tiny little build, it took a few evenings to complete due to the rather complicated SNOT geometry in the terrain. Although it's cropped in the photo it wraps around 360 degrees so that the build can be displayed at a con, whenever we can safely have one of those again...

Established in 1929, the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation was created by Henry Ford as The Edison Institute, a private educational institution, before opening to the public in 1933, initially being owned and operated by the Ford Motor Company. The museum contains exhibits and artifacts that were collected by Henry Ford starting in 1906, when his wealth began to increase substantially due to the success of the Ford Motor Company, with the institutions continuing to collect artifacts and items to this day. The museum is housed in a large structure, designed by Robert O. Derrick, that is quite similar in structure to a warehouse or factory built during the time of construction. Covering approximately 500,000 square feet (50,000 square meters), the building contains a variety of exhibits, mostly focusing on machinery, furnishings, automobiles, and other industrial goods, as well as historic artifacts that represent culturally significant moments in the history of the United States. The museum today is a major tourist attraction within the Detroit Region, and is one of three significant attractions affiliated with the Ford Motor Company in Dearborn, alongside Greenfield Village and the Ford Rouge Complex, all of which are open to tourists and visitors. The museum was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969, and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1981.
Found on an abandoned farm in the Poconos, Pennsylvania.
Entered in 'Window Light' themed competition and took 3rd place.
(Slightly) augmented lens flare in post; it helped balance it. Not something i normally do and not sure if I like it especially since it didn't exactly give any options for multi bladed flare.
Strobist: Abr800 with reflector back right to give the cut off and flare. ab800 front left with plm and white front. Cactus v4's
Working on a project about things I brought over from Hong Kong when I was a kid. In the process of selecting the objects to be photographed, and experimenting with lighting it using household lamps in the garage. I'll have a chance to photograph them with actual studio equipment in a studio class.

I am wearing Yuri Gagarin’s personal wristwatch today, and so it seemed like a good photo opp for another other cool artifact from the Russian space program.
The black ceramic tile that the watch rests on was part of the thermal protection system of the Soviet Union’s space shuttle Buran, which made one flight on Nov. 15, 1988.
The Buran flew only one two-orbit mission, and because it was just as dangerous as the Shuttle it imitated, it flew and landed autonomously, with no humans on board. Five tiles were lost during the flight. More photos below.
This tile was removed after the orbiter was destroyed in a hangar collapse at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in 2002.
The watch looks to be a 1960's-era solid gold Russian watch, but I suspected it might be a forgery before I bought it. The auction house failed to notice that a letter was missing from the last name!
I got them to correct the listing, and the bidding did not go high, so I figured it was worth it to have an old Russian watch, perhaps circa 1967, that just might really have belonged to the first man in space (despite the typo in the engraving; perhaps that's why he got rid of it =). Maybe someone in flickrland can help shed light on this.
Here is what the auction house provided (as well as originals of the documents referenced): “Attractive 23 jewel, man's 10K gold wrist watch owned by Yuri Gagarin. Made by Russian watch maker and in working order. Back of watch engraved and has been translated as "YURI GAGARIN MAY 1, 1967". Watch accompanied by a note translated as "The watch was bought by Gagarin in 1967. It was in [his] personal use. Gagarina." Original translation report by Igor Moiseyev of ATLANTIC CROSSROAD, INC included. Watch face in fair condition with sweep wear on center of face patina due to age.”
Scarab Beetle artifact lost by the Ancient Egyptians and found by modern archeologists... For the Macro Mondays Group. Topic: Lost/Found. HMM
A friend of mine had this. I think he found it somewhere in New Mexico or Arizona. It's just under an inch long.
