catastrophic, but they are after all merely preliminary. Even in the worst case, Science would have nearly a Century to provide an adequate solution."
For this week's MM theme, I again, thought of an old friend who's been with me for decades. We spent a lot of nights solving endless problems together and she always got me through each one of them. Things have changed a lot since but I decided to keep her all these years. I'm sure someone out there might still have a slide rule hiding somewhere.

Taken for 'Saturday Self Challenge': "Mechanical workings"
The inner workings of a mechanical calculator. Specifically this is a pinwheel mechanism from a Multo calculator, I think dating from the 1950s.

No school no job - sad truth for many people in Greece. Stavros Manoulakis and his grandson Dimitrios at the Moires market in the south of Crete. Stavros has been selling its wonderful cheese for decades. The currency changeover from drachmas to euros doesn't affect him. He weighs and his scales show drachmas. He then uses a calculator to calculate the price in euros. Hasselblad 205TCC, Zeiss Planar FE 2,0/110mm, Ilford HP5, dev. with ID-11, sol.1:3, scanned with Nikon Supercoolscan 8000ED.

Here is one of my potential Macro Monday captures taken today for the theme this week that is "Back in the Day".
This was my grandfather's calculator he used for work and for doing taxes. Can add, subtract and multiply.
Captured here at f/32, ISO 100 for 30 seconds.
The numbers I entered into the mechanical machine is the 'date' around when these were made.
My contribution to Macro Mondays' challenge, "Pouch", on 14 Sep 2020. It's a well-used HP financial calculator, a relic from my pre-retirement past.
The Lightning Calculator Company of Grand Rapids, Michigan. Manufactured 1900-1925. (For a description: collection.maas.museum/object/372791)
This model belonged to and was well used by my grandfather. Stylus may not be original but has been with the machine since at least the late 1940s. Still works perfectly.
For WAH who are visiting calculators. I couldn't decide so you get both with this for the daily shot and the other for the 123.

THEME: BACK IN THE DAY
I have no idea why I'm still hanging on to this calculator, my very first one. I know it has helped me a lot in passing exams that I could have not done with a slide rule!
The calculator that got me through engineering school some 40 years ago. Just like back then, it gives the right answer most of the time.
an infinite field full of cabbage
as far as my eye could see, a field of green.
I found this field in Broek op Langedijk (West - Friesland) Noord-Holland
a warm memorie of a nice summer.
Thanks for the texture my friend: lenabem-anna

You darkness, that I come from,
I love you more than all the fires
that fence in the world,
for the fire makes
a circle of light for everyone,
and then no one outside learns of you.
But the darkness pulls in everything;
shapes and fires, animals and myself,
how easily it gathers them!—
powers and people—
and it is possible a great energy
is moving near me.
I have faith in nights.
- Rainer Maria Rilke, On Darkness
The picture is a combination of 2 shots. One 18mm shot of the main content and one 200mm shot of the moon to bring forwards details in the moon.
Converted to B&W to strengthen the composition.

Here is a calculator that might help taking better pictures of the moon: www.adidap.com/2006/12/06/moon-exposure-calculator/
In a comment futher down I explained why I used 2 shots to make this picture:
Thank you for your comment. Not only does this make it possible to choose the size, but it also makes it easier to get correct exposure, both for the moon and your landscape. You have a PS job to do afterwards on selecting the moon and adjusting the moon as you like it in your picture, but it is good PS-training.
Have a nice and focused day :-)
