As I was looking around on Flickr I saw a trash compactor shot, I decided to give it a try came out with this. I'm really happy with it and thought it was pretty accurate to the film.
Hope you like it! :D
SIne the I began photography I have liked the idea of a small camera with the quality of bigger cameras. I am not overly keen on the bulk and noise of SLR cameras yet do appreciate their versatility. I use mostly Olympus OM and a Pentax MX for SLR photograpy.
What I like best is a pocketable camera offering control and a good lens. In 1980 I heard of the Olympus XA cameras and was saving up for one then lost my after school job and had to wait some years before buying an XA.
The Minox EL has needed attention to give it a working shutter and reliable metering, when working well it's lens produces immages full of detail and feel.
Yoshihisa Maitani did not like the complexity and potential for unreliability pop out lenses give, both the XA and Pen D have fixed lenses and are spot on for reliability. Of the two I prefer the Pen D it is designed like the Rollei 35 to be operated first from the view of the top plate, the exposure and focus are set this way on both then its up to the eye and the phograph is made.
Heinz Waaske used innavative design with quality engineering for the Rollei 35. Like the Pen D the Rollei 35 feels good with a satisfying mechanical feel in use.
The aperture priority automatic cameras here offer convinience of setting exposure and in most circumstances are accurate. The XA's rangefinder patch is small and I use it as a distance estimation camera most of the time like the other three. Maitiani thoughtfully designed the distance scale window to be viewed from the top and it works well like this.
This second test shot from the Leica D-Lux 7 compact camera was designed to check two features: Colour and lens. Like my previous shot today, it shows how well the sensor has captured the light that has then been converted by the Bayer filter (RGB) arrangement of the pixels. The colours in this shot are almost ideal clash colours, and yet there is a very clear demarcation of their difference. There was no risk of them blending into each other. Once again I needed no manipulation in processing other than a slight lift in the brightness of the shadow area under the Library sign. The resolution is sharp (see all those cobwebs - Covid has been used as a great excuse for public slackness).
The 24-75mm f/1.7-2.8 3.1x Leica lens has a slight fisheye effect at these settings, and I did not correct this in processing to show you (though of course it is easily correctible).
I am told that 70% of all photographs taken on Leica cameras are converted to monochrome. That is a personal choice of the photographers, although the Leica Monochrom Q2 is one of only two dedicated monochromatic cameras in the world. But the colour of this Leica camera is truly charming, and I am very happy with my purchase.
The final to my future-auto exploration. This time, based on several retro-future compact-car designs (including by Syd Mead of course). Ironically, this is the only of the three that actually fits a full figure.
The purpose of the three cars was to look at what I consider the three main areas of consumer-cars in futuristic media: Luxury, Show, and Utility. I am disregarding Industrial and Military as I have made a ton of the former already and I don't really like the latter.

A shot from 2005. Canon EOS 20D and Canon EF 50mm f2.5 compact macro. Interesting revisiting older RAW files in the latest versions of processing software (DXO). Chilterns, Buckinghamshire
My kids have remote control helicopters that look kind of like this, with much shorter, wider rotor blades than a typical full-size helicopter. It allows for a smaller overall size for the aircraft, which makes it easier to maneuver and land. I don't know if it's a practical design for a full-size chopper, but I wanted to make one in Lego anyway.
Also on display is a bunch of stuff I picked up at Brickfair. I think the minifig cat miniguns I got from MBW work great with Chris' drones because of their larger size relative to minifigs. I also love the eclipseGrafx torsos and Brickarms pulse rifles I got from contributing to the Cyberpocalypse collaboration. Thanks Vic and Will!
This is actually from 9/23, but never came through from Instagram. Two mirrors actually. These were my mother’s. Small compact and larger 2-sided clutch with built-in makeup compartments, places for bills and coins, and in the other side cigarettes and missing matching lighter.
Its been just over five years since I posted my first X-wing, shortly followed by my revised version - I figured an update was long overdue!
I was aiming for a more compact design this time, 3-wide engines rather than 4, forfeiting the full astromech droid and just generally shrinking everything down while trying to retain proportions and detail... Simple! (not).
Thankfully I had help. A big thank you to some of the wonderful people that provided feedback and encouragement throughout the build process:
Thomas Jenkins, Luca, Gubi, Waffles, Kit Bricksto, Trevor.2004, Tim Goddard, The Last Brickbender, Caleb Ricks, Atlas_er.
Thanks guys, as always your input was invaluable :)

Würzburg is een stad met overzichtelijke afmetingen en de trams die er tijdens mijn eerste bezoek in 1977 dienst deden, waren compact. Ook de grootte van het in 1954 opgeleverde stationsgebouw is afgestemd op de behoefte van een provinciestad. Het voor de jaren vijftig karakteristieke stationsgebouw is ontworpen door architect Hans Kern. De kraam met worstjes voor de uitgang van het station ontbreekt uiteraard niet.
De enkelgelede Düwag-tram heeft ook deuren aan de linker zijde. Op het achterbalkon is een hulpstuurstand aangebracht. De wagens konden zodoende bij behoefte in tweerichtingbedrijf gebruikt worden. Primair zijn de wagens echter voor eenrichtingbedrijf ingericht. Men sprak in dit geval ook wel van anderhalfrichtingwagens. Op de kopwand zien we de verschillende contactdozen voor bijwagenbedrijf. Destijds werd er op werkdagen nog met kleine tweeassige bijwagens achter deze gelede trams gereden.
Tram 233 maakt deel uit van een serie van tien enkelgelde zesassers die in 1967 en 1968 door Düwag werden geleverd. Vanwege het krappe profiel van vrij ruimte zijn de koppen sterk afgeschuind. In 1982 werden de wagens door het invoegen van een nieuwe tussenbak verlengd tot dubbelgelede achtassers.

From The CSIRO website
The Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), at the Paul Wild Observatory, is an array of six 22-m antennas used for radio astronomy. It is located about 25 km west of the town of Narrabri in rural NSW (about 500 km north-west of Sydney). It is operated by CSIRO's Astronomy and Space Science division...
The "Compact Array'' is the premier instrument of its kind in the southern hemisphere. It operates 365-days per year, 24-hours per day. Its business is pure science. It is not used for any military activities.
This antennas work together using a technique called "interferometry'' which allows the antennas to mimic a much larger antenna. This gives the telescope the ability to see very fine detail. Effectively "radio interferometry'' works by replacing the lens of a conventional imaging system with sophisticated electronics, supercomputer-like hardware and complex software. Using this technique, a image of a small section of the sky can be formed in a 12-hour period. Whereas the Array uses six antennas spread over 6km, the same interferometry principles can be applied to antennas spread over a continent. For example, several times a year, the Array is used together with other radio telescopes spread across Australia (such as the Parkes antenna) to make images with extremely fine detail.
