Lucerne, a compact city in Switzerland known for its preserved medieval architecture, sits amid snowcapped mountains on Lake Lucerne. Its colorful Altstadt (Old Town) is bordered on the north by 870m Museggmauer (Musegg Wall), a 14-century rampart. The covered Kapellbrücke (Chapel Bridge), built in 1333, links the Aldstadt to the Reuss River's right bank.

For Macro Mondays - Hole
I was struggling to come up with a hole for this week, out of time, then this morning I had to burn a CD so decided to use that.
Happy Macro Monday!
We have a lot of earth works going on at our property, and I am finding so many fascinating elements to document. This is an attachment for the excavator and a big pile of clay material we’re holding onto so that we can hopefully have enough to line a small dam!!
Amazing how the big the wings of the brown Pelican can fold down into a very compact flying torpedo. The brown pelican can dive head first into water to catch a meal. And seagulls often try to steal their catch out. I hope to catch the seagull getting away with the theft on camera soon.
Macro Mondays
Theme: Plastic
Size: Less than 3x3 inches
There are 2 kinds of plastic here ....a section of clear sticky tape folded over a few times resting in the middle of a CD ( Compact Disc ). There are 3 light sources, the room down light, at 12 o'clock, an incandescent light at 11 o'clock and a LED torch light beneath the CD. Back ground colours are from a blue cloth and my trusted yellow physio stretch band.
Many thanks for your visit, comments and favs....it is always appreciated.

There have been quite a few new benches installed at the John F Kennedy arboretum, all this same design; really dark stained wood & just about long enough for 2 people to sit side by side. Perhaps they will be solo benches in the event of another covid type social distancing event? Who knows what the thinking was behind making them so compact & bijou.
Anyway, the colourful forsythia bushes & variety of distant trees caught my eye, so I took a quick iPhone shot HTmT!
Photo 31/100 : My 100x photos this year will all feature benches or chairs. Catching up with uploading my 100x as I was (am) way behind. I promise to intersperse some non-bench photos too.

This ‘compact-reflex’ SLR camera was manufactured from 1977 onwards by the Japanese company Cosina (named Cosina CSM) for Porst in Nuremberg. Its M42 lens is an outstanding, fast lens that still impresses today with its sharpness and optical performance. CdS light metering and an electromechanical focal-plane shutter were, along with other features, state of the art for their time. It also still works perfectly and is in good condition, having always been well looked after. A flash is also included!

Compact, deployable, autonomous combatant.
These tanks were fielded by a UN-type organisation, which used them as active protective systems in border conflicts. The tanks were air-dropped into a hot-zone, and simply awaited any interlopers.
Successful during their intended lifetimes, they ended up having many of the pitfalls of mines. Several misplaced remnants of long-passed conflicts were stirred to violence by the proximity of tribal bystanders completely unaware of their existence.
