Base of penis wrinkled, with some black pigment (5).
Filament (tip of penis beyond glands) triangular (6), less than 5% of total length of penis; tip (7) on this specimen is somewhat mucronate (like L. saxatilis s.s.).

Compressed air is a very common source of energy. For effective utilization of compressed air, it has to be clean. Filter Concept offers a range of compressed air filters for removal of dirt, dust, rust, condensates, moisture contents, oil impurities & exhaust fumes. Filtered compressed air results into low down time & reduces the production loss. For more Details: filter-concept.com/compressed-air.aspx
This is a cotton compress powered by steam(originally), but now run off of compressed air. It has a 90 inch piston in it and was used to compress cotton into bales for easier rail transportation. this side shows the tanks for the compressed air and the portable compressor is parked behind them. The jiffy johnies are not required unless there is an accident.
I went into some random building looking for a bathroom and there happened to be an old locomotive on display in there! Go figure.
In any case, this cabless locomotive, powered by compressed air, is dated 1877 and apparently was used exclusively for the Plymouth Cordage Co., which was at the time the world's largest rope factory. It even had underground tunnels, like a subway, for this engine to pull flatcars of materials around the factory.
It's a well known fact that using a longer focal length lens, and then stepping backwards so you can still fit your subject in frame, will "compress" the perspective in your image (i.e. make background objects appear a lot closer to your foreground).
What I haven't been able to find out until today was the effect of using different focal lengths, but keeping the same shooting position and cropping the image down to the same field of view. Seems that this has no (or very little) effect on perspective.
Any slight differences in the image above are probably due to the effect of lens distortion (barrelling, pin cushioning), or me forgetting to focus on the same point for each frame.
Taken on a Canon EOS 7d (1.6x FOVCF), using a 28mm f/2.8, 50mm f/1.8 and the awesome 70-200mm f/4.0 USM. All shots taken at f/4.0
Two hills about a quarter of a mile apart. Get closer for Bokeh; back off for Compression - two creative tools for your longer lenses.
More fallen fruit - and an experiment with telephoto compression. I always find these little arrangements of fallen things so fascinating - I enjoy the hunt for the right composition among all these little details.
This mod was inspired by the movie
No Country for Old Men in which a psychopath uses a compressed oxygen tank and a spraying thing. The air coming out is so powerful that at some point, he blows out a door's lock with it. He also has the air go through a guy's head, thus killing him. Anyway, I wouldn't recommend this movie to younger kids.
Hope you enjoy my mod!
