...on a circuit board.
For Macro Mondays: "Small and Smaller" theme, it's a demonstration board from Universal Instruments Corp. that I've had for many years. The company builds automated machines for placing and attaching components--both small and smaller--to circuit boards.
The image measures just 1 5/8-inch on the long side.

When i read the theme for the next Smile on Saturday Challenge then instantly Memories of my childhood came up. I don`t know how many Hours my friends an me have spent playing this great Game called RISK ! The Game is well known around the world and gets played since over 60 Years by Generations. Back in 1957 it got created by Albert Lamorisse, a french filmmaker. I still own the Game and we play it from time to time when we celebate game nights. So i took the chance to shoot an image of my DE LUXE Version of the Game for the theme quite a while ago.
Risk is a strategy board game of diplomacy, conflict and conquest for two to six players. The standard version is played on a board depicting a political map of the world, divided into forty-two territories, which are grouped into six continents. Turns rotate among players who control armies of playing pieces with which they attempt to capture territories from other players, with results determined by dice rolls. Players may form and dissolve alliances during the course of the game. The goal of the game is to occupy every territory on the board and, in doing so, eliminate the other players. The game can be lengthy, requiring several hours to multiple days to finish. European versions are structured so that each player has a limited "secret mission" objective that shortens the game.
Thank you for visits, comments and favs!

Der Sekretär musste eine (kleine) Reparatur an seinem geschätzten alten Oszilloskop vornehmen. Und als er es schon offen auf dem Tisch hatte, konnte er nicht anders, als das Innenleben zu portraitieren.

Secretary had to make a (minor) repair to his valued old oscilloscope. And when he already had it open on the table, he couldn't help but portray the inside.
It’s Christmas day and the scrappers working in Wisconsin Central’s Shops Yard locomotive facility at North Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, are home with their families enjoying the holiday. In the foreground, torched hoods sit on the ground, and the prime movers, generators and other engineroom components already gone from the locomotives. The job isn’t done yet, but the fate of these three former Soo Line GP30s is sealed as WC Nos. 709, 717 and 718 are not much more than scrap metal on December 25, 1994.

Sometimes, all it takes is your smile

The beauty here arises from the interplay of perfectly normal physical and biological processes:
Sunlight is scattered by the moist morning air. Tiny water droplets in the mist primarily deflect the short-wavelength components of the light, while warm, yellow-gold light remains dominant. This creates the soft rays and the warm color palette. At the same time, leaves, grass, and water absorb and reflect light differently, creating contrasts and depth.
Our brains perceive this as "beautiful" because they have an evolutionarily positive response to patterns such as smooth transitions, natural symmetries, and color harmonies—for millions of years, these signaled safe, life-friendly environments.
In short: Physics shapes the light, biology shapes the landscape, and our brains create beauty from it.
Unser Gehirn schafft Schönheit
Die Schönheit entsteht hier aus dem Zusammenspiel ganz normaler physikalischer und biologischer Prozesse:
Das Sonnenlicht wird durch die feuchte Morgenluft gestreut. Winzige Wassertröpfchen im Nebel lenken vor allem die kurzwelligen Anteile des Lichts um, während warmes, gelb-goldenes Licht dominanter bleibt. Dadurch entstehen die weichen Strahlen und die warme Farbpalette. Gleichzeitig absorbieren und reflektieren Blätter, Gras und Wasser Licht unterschiedlich, was Kontraste und Tiefe erzeugt.
Unser Gehirn empfindet das als „schön“, weil es auf Muster wie sanfte Übergänge, natürliche Symmetrien und Farbharmonien evolutionär positiv reagiert – sie signalisierten über Millionen Jahre hinweg sichere, lebensfreundliche Umgebungen.
Kurz gesagt: Physik formt das Licht, Biologie formt die Landschaft, und unser Gehirn macht daraus Schönheit.

Meistens begnügt sich der Sekretär damit, einfach schöne, gerne auch spezielle, lustige, nachdenkliche und ironische Bilder mit seinen Flickr-Freunden zu teilen. Aber manchmal gibt es, wie hier, Ausnahmen.
Der Ethikkodex des IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) geht auf einen Kodex des früheren AIEE (American Institute of Electrical Engineers) zurück, der 1912, also vor 110 Jahren, verabschiedet wurde.
Wie wir wissen, hat ein solcher Kodex Personen - und zwar sehr viele - kaum jemals davon abgehalten, sich unethisch bis hin zu kriminell zu verhalten. Und so wird es auch in Zukunft sein. Es wäre auch eine törichte Illusion zu erwarten, dass ein solches Dokument klare Anleitungen für das Verhalten in bestimmten Situationen gibt, auch in diesen schwierigen und herausfordernden Tagen.
Aber angesichts dessen, was Ingenieure zum Guten, aber auch zum Schlechten dieser Welt und ihrer Bewohner beigetragen haben und beitragen, ist es gut, einem Verband anzugehören, dem diese Fragen nicht gleichgültig sind und der über die Grenzen des eigenen Berufsstandes hinausblickt.

Usually, Secretary is content to simply share some nice, preferably special, funny, thoughtful and ironic pictures with his Flickr friends. But sometimes, like here, there are exceptions.
The Code of Ethics of the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) goes back a code of the former AIEE (American Institute of Electrical Engineers), adopted in 1912, i.e. 110 years ago.
As we know, such a code has hardly ever prevented individuals - actually a great many of them - from behaving unethically to the point of criminality. And so it will be in the future. It would also be a foolish illusion to expect such a document to give clear guidance on how to act in specific situations, including these present difficult and challenging days.
But in view of what engineers have contributed and are contributing to the good, but also to the bad, of this world and its residents, it is good to be part of an association that is not indifferent to these issues and that looks beyond the borders of its own profession.
In this shot of Copper Island, the cloud I saw from a distance plays a major part. As it was forming I raced to a familiar spot to catch it at just the right time. Copper Island is left as a silhouette, and makes the shot more about shapes than the nature it captures.

It is the component of tension and uncertainty which excites me everytime again, when I go out with the camera. Not seldom I find myself in a world full of miracles. Mostly unexpected and always unique.

Taken at 1:1 magnification. The capacitors are about 6 mm in diameter.
I've included a shot of the NeXTdimension logo in the comments.
To the Belgian component (4 of the 6 aircraft) for patiently showing the line of photographers their beautiful F-16's - thank you!
