Sometimes we lose context in our critiques and judge these vintage cameras like they are new models on the shelf. It shouldn’t matter now what the comparisons were between them 50 to 100 years ago, or how they may compare to cameras made today. Now they are all beautiful collector items and an important part of history!
Actually, this box contains a fairly nice selection of fossils and flints. There are clams from Texas, bits of petrified wood, and two better quality fossils (purchased at rock shops), including a jawbone from the early horse, Epihippus, which once roamed the plains of the American continent.
Here's a sign of changing times. We spent 2 weeks in Scotland, and I can count the number of railway photographs taken on the fingers of 2 hands. Stopping at Blair Atholl on our way to Inverness to drive the "NorthCoast500" route I was surprised to see Blair Atholl signal box still open and operative. For some reason I had thought that the Highland main line had all been re-signalled some years ago. I was wrong.
Blair Atholl box was a Highand Railway design dating from about 1890.
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, (*_*)

Kaliphlin may be a war torn, battle scarred guild, but here as elsewhere, ordinary hardworking people bring everyday beauty to lives throughout the Siccus Badlands.
My first contribution to the Kaliphlin at Work collab. Don't miss the rest over at Guilds of Historica!
See the build behind the scenes and read about its making here at my blog!
A gift box for #buildtogive
Still plenty of time to build a gift so that LEGO can give the gift of LEGO to kids in need!
Something else, too, came to me from my illness. I might formulate it as an affirmation of things as they are: an unconditional "yes" to that which is, without subjective protests acceptance of the conditions of existence as I see them and understand them, acceptance of my own nature, as I happen to be. At the beginning of the illness I had the feeling that there was something wrong with my attitude, and that I was to some extent responsible for the mishap. But when one follows the path of individuation, when one lives one's own life, one must take mistakes into the bargain; life would not be complete without them. There is no guarantee not for a single moment that we will not fall into error or stumble into deadly peril. We may think there is a sure road. But that would be the road of death. Then nothing happens any longer at any rate, not the right things. Anyone who takes the sure road is as good as dead.

A continuation of my Korean apartment series. The human element adds a tiny bit of life which I was glad to have captured.
Signal box staff stand and watch Stanier 'Royal Scot' 4-6-0 no.46100 'Royal Scot’ with the RYTC Crewe-Whitehaven-Carlisle-Shap-Crewe “Scot Commemorative” tour as she passes though the small village of Foxfield onher way up the Cumbrian coast.
This was a quick shot, as we hadn't expected to catch her. Just saw people waiting at the station, so knew it hadn't gone though. A bonus shot.

Art Week Gallery Theme ~Floral Art ~
This week 19 Jan.25 Jan. our theme is:
~~~~~ Floral Art ~~~~~
The K4 box incorporated a post box and stamp vending machines. In production 1930-35 only 50 were made and only 5 still survive. Whilst the stamp machines are long out of use, this one in Frodsham, Cheshire, still functions as a phone and post box.
A fantastic handmade and hand painted vintage wooden box that is a one-of-a-kind find. The painted hearts, birds, and flowers very much give it a Scandinavian folk art feel.
cigar boxes. A big stack! at 'Madam Tojo's' in Labrador
lots of weird odds & ends in this coffeeshop.
A new box design based on Propellers Tessellation molecule. The molecule is depressed, meaning that the layers of paper forming the sides of the box are above it.
While the molecule itself is quite simple, I think this model is interesting due to the way the side walls are constructed, resulting in edges which are not straight and decorated with the color-change triangle.
Box, from a rectangle, is a variation of triangular box.
Lid is my rhombic box from square.
They work well together.
Bear boxes have various designs. All require that you have at least one person in your party with fingers and who is smarter than a bear.
I haven't seen this kind of lock elsewhere.
Dune Creek Camp, Great Sand Dunes National Park. The camp is nestled in some cottonwoods along Sand Creek, facing the end of the dune field. It's altogether serviceable but not a "destination" site like Aspen.
NBCR Lantern box - subject of an article in January 2016 ICCC Newsletter! Do you have one? - Let me know if so!!
Worth noting that this lantern (11/63 220F) - while a fairly common lantern does have some interesting things
First - it is an EARLY 220F - and does not any transitional pieces from the 220E model that preceded it - AND Second - the collar is a mis-stamp in that the work "Coleman" should be on the left side of the knob - but should also be right side up! Wonder how many came down the line with this issue before it was fixed - and Coleman never threw away usable parts - so I am pretty sure that they are out there!
