Oh No ! Bentley Heath Signal Box is being ripped apart like a Christmas Cracker, with little respect for the yaers it has stood there guarding Mill Lane & The Railway.......10/02/2008
This is for a event which theme is "box". Thus I tried my best to build a lego box with bricks. The reason I choose 6985 is simple: I own this set :p. The concept of my work is: Imagination from the box. I built a new spaceship with limited parts because I don't wanna display the original one :)
Unfortunately I cannot found the black classic space minifig, so I used blue one instead on the cover.
These are our old money boxes with a selection of old pre decimal coins that we would have saved in them. The Burslem & District Industrial Co-operative Society Ltd are long gone. Leek United Building Society on the other hand are just like it says on the box "Firm and lasting". I can still vaguely remember my Mum taking me into the local branch with an ancient Leek United money box. The gent behind the counter commented on its age and went to find a suitable key. When he opened the box there was a collection of coins, buttons and an assortment of odds & ends that caused a certain amount of merriment. Mum made the total up to ten shillings and I became the latest member of Leek United Building Society complete with a brand new blue moneybox. Years later I got to know the gent who signed me up, it turned out that he retired on that day, I was his last new member. "Money Box"... "Smile on Saturday"...

LONDON PUB.
Isn't it beautiful in Summer, to see houses, walls, windows and facades, decorated and cheered up with flowers.
Some people just do not have a garden, what a brilliant solution, for all of us!
Do we even think about that now or is it just another given?
It suddenly dawned on me.
I think there is a trend though, to also have autumn and winter plants and fun.
Oh please, ANYTHING to make our moods brighter, lol.
Thank you, M, (*_*)

With full frame a noticeable loss in magnification in macro though the D750 produces a much cleaner image with less noise than my old D5300
This scene reminded me of the theatre with the spotlighted rocks being the main attraction and the overlook being a set of premiere box seats reserved for patrons to enjoy the show. The show being a big heaping pile of tranquility and zen.
All comments, critiques and feedback both positive and negative welcome.
Our ever changing suburbs. Box Hill an eastern suburb of Melbourne. High rise taken from the perimeter of the former Brickworks!
The eastern box turtle is one of six extant subspecies of the common box turtle. It has a high-domed, rounded, hard upper shell, called a carapace. The vivid, orange and yellow markings on its dark brown shell distinguish it from other box turtles, as do the four toes on its hind feet. Its distinct coloring camouflages it among the damp earth, fallen leaves and other debris found on the floor of moderately moist forests.
The underside of its shell, called its plastron, is dark brown and hinged. All box turtles have this bilobed plastron, which allows them to almost completely shut their shell. When threatened, the box turtle pulls its body into its shell and waits for the danger to pass. Its shell is also unique in that it can regenerate. In one reported case, the carapace of a badly burned box turtle completely regenerated.
Box turtles have a hooked upper jaw, and most have a significant overbite. Their feet are slightly webbed. There are many ways to tell a male and female box turtle apart. Males are generally larger and have shorter, thicker tails than females. Males also have short, thick, curved hind claws, while females' hind claws are long, straight and thin.
Eastern box turtles walk energetically with their heads upright and may travel about 50 meters (55 yards) in one day. A homing instinct, an innate ability to navigate to a "home base" despite being in an unfamiliar area, helps this turtle find its way back home.

Teasing is over, here is the real thing. Inside the box, a semi-illuminated street with a strange scene going on.
These photos are'nt so great, but this creation means a lot to me, so please visit this page for more pix, different views and construction details :))
Made for a local convention this last week-end, and more coming up hopefully!
Feel free to tell me what you think, good or bad, or anything in between!
cheers y'all :D
Rings in a jewelry box.
Mostly, if not all, come from my wife's past, she very rarely wears these nowadays. It was tricky to shoot with the different shininess of the different metals and stones. Used a 55mm f2.8 lens, handheld with a diffuse light source. Used Gimp to blend a couple of different exposures to highlight the colours in the blue ring and not be too harsh on the gold ring.

This is the latest group photo of my Box Camera Team. There are two new ones here that haven't been posted individually yet, but I will get to that later. I collect Zeiss Ikon and Voigtlander so have included the one and only Voigtlander Box, that I know of anyway. All of the cameras in this collection are in very good to excellent working and cosmetic condition. For the photo they are arranged from earliest (bottom left) to latest (top right). Made in Germany from 1927 through 1956. Represented here are all of the basic models with several production variations thrown in. There are a few more minor variations out there, so I am always looking!

Australian Raven, largest raven in the world
Taken during what we call the "Chalk Festival" held in the Clifton Neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio. Among other things, artists create paintings with chalk on sidewalks and blocked off streets. It is always a fun event.
