These tiny leaves are sort of peculiar. I don't know if the plant is dehydrated or if it's just a part of the physiology of the plant, but the stem of the leaf looks rather flat, doesn't it? Plants are such bizarre creatures in the first place when you compare them to animals.
Almost exclusively do they not rely on other animals for direct nutrition. Almost all of them are rooted in one way or another to a substrate. Their gross anatomy is so unlike ours.
Then again. Earth teems with plants. Maybe we're the odd ones.
The small size of the Black Hills Central's Baldwin 2-6-6-2 tank locomotives--38 foot wheelbase-- can really be seen from above--in this aerial view, #108 has topped the steep initial climb out of Hill City and is now winding between the hills on a light downgrade before the drop into Keystone.

It started with the LC-A, that I got in a 2nd hand shop in Budapest 2 years ago, I took it to test it the next days on my way by train across Bulgaria/Romania to Istambul, and I finally figured out that P&S were the way to travel without worries. always ready, and in a simple pocket. SET
Eventually the lc-a fell and so I could try to fix the frame counter it had to get a new dress.
Also, missing some shots because of the zone focus it was not ideal, so I started looking for some cheep AF ones, and they had to be as pocketable as the lc-a, on that area the mju II is the winner.
I don't think this collection will grow much more, unless I stumble upon some expensive models or so, for very cheap (ricohs gr, minolta TC-1 etc...) I'm happy with these ones for now, let's see what comes next.
(1 week after)
I just came back from the fleamarket with some more P&S cameras, Mju I (another),
Ricoh FF70(it's a DOA after all), Fuji HD-M, Konica EU-min and a Porst 135AE
#2 UPDATE
additions : Olympus XA2, Ricoh FF-1, Leica C2-zoom, Nikon AF600, Rollei 35B
A very basic Compact. Top spotting points if you see one of these now.

From where I sit at this moment, Orkney seems so remote. It's easy to forget that it sits just off John o' Groats and was a bit of Scotland nibbled away and submerged at the end of the Last Glacial Period. Prior to that, the lowered sea levels left Doggerland high and dry — a convenient stepping stone for humans to repopulate Britain from the rest of Europe. Yes, I've been to the very north of the archipelago, to North Ronaldsay. Today I'm away to South Ronaldsay — ironically juxtaposed at opposite ends from its northern namesake. This won't take me to Orkney's most southerly isle, Stroma, which to be honest has less water between it and Scotland that it has between itself and the rest of Orkney.
Here's a reminder of how compact these islands are. This is the northern tip of Glimps Holm looking back across Lamb Holm to Mainland. By now I've crossed two of the causeways constructed as navigation barriers in WWII. There are what appears to be military installations, there on the cliffs of Lamb Holm. In the middleground lie relics of the block ships sunk here early in WWI. I think this was the SS Numidian, an almost 5000 ton steel hulled steamer scuttled here on 30 December 1914. She was sunk in the company of SS Aorangi, SS Thames and SS Minieh with, I think, Numidian in the shallow water near this spot. I could be wrong. If you need a better answer there's a kind of trainspotters' guide to the wrecks of Scapa Flow.
Orkney is so user-friendly. It's a small place, compact, packed to the gunwales with history; so much that with sea level rise its, Plimsoll line is in peril of disappearing beneath the waves. Getting about is quick and easy; all that and it has a village named Twatt.

The news of the passing of the Dutch engineer who invented the audio Compact Cassette, Lou Ottens, got me to thinking how useful and handy these were back in the day and efficient - even a provision to prevent accidental ereasure. The quality of the audio wasn't up there with reel-to-reel, but they paved they way for portable music. Even after portable compact disc (which Mr. Ottens was involved in the development of) players came out, portable cassette players were the best way to go - easier to fit into a pocket and slower battery drain - though it took many years to get the player down to the size of the cassette itself. Until at least MP3 players came out, which like everything else digital revolutionized everything.
My first pass at the building was only three stories, then I added an additional three. If I had to fit the building in a more compact space or if looked out of place in a layout, I could go back to three.

Compact is a neat little studs up font. Basic, but gets the job done. Perfect for signing mosaics.

This 1 3/8 inch figure is the DC Comics character The Flash as seen in the game HeroClix. The red and yellow streaks behind him are actually tissue paper.
I believe this is the first toy photo I've posted to Flickr that was lit by my camera's flash. I typically use lamps, flashlights, LEDs, etc.
This image is straight out of the camera: no tweaking, no color processing, no cropping, no nothing.
Submitted to the Flickr group 7 Days of Shooting.
My prototypes for the 4 hood's i've designed so far.
The two for CV 21mm and CV 25mm are still going through testing at the moment, so aren't yet on sale.
I will be using this camera in week 325 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:
