this happened last Friday on our way up North to the Cairngorms. Two identical trucks carrying these strange looking devices. My curiosity was properly tickled 😎😛
I bougth a Rodenstock Depth of field calculator for my work with the graflex cams. I found out that this slide rule is also suitable for the Mamiya, since it also has a bellows focuser. Familiarizing yourself with this device was a bit cumbersome - but in the end I understood how it works. So here is the first photo, with an exactly set depth of field... somehow realy cool! :))
The calculator on Amazon: www.amazon.de/Rodenstock-Tiefenrechner/dp/B0043WQ4M4
Camera: Mamyia RB67 SD
Film: Kodak Ektar 100
Scanner: Epson V850 Pro
Scannersoftware: Silverfast
I made this one-image photo using a two-axis, computer-controlled device. The coin was held in place using a banana clip and positioned on a rotary stage, while a linear axis moved the coin 35mm to the right. Both linear and rotary movements were made simultaneously, taking a total of 6 seconds. (X35 A55 F150)
Situé sur une voie de migration littorale à proximité de l’océan et de la Loire, le lac de Grand-Lieu accueille 270 espèces d’oiseaux, ce qui en fait la deuxième réserve ornithologique française après la Camargue. Le Lac de Grand-Lieu est un site fragile qui forme un réservoir exceptionnel pour la biodiversité, C'est la 2ème réserve ornithologique de France après la Camargue qui abrite plus de 270 espèces d’oiseaux, 550 espèces de végétaux y sont recensées, plus de 50 espèces de mammifères sont présentes, ainsi que 30 espèces de poissons et 12 espèces de batraciens. De ce fait, il est protégé par de nombreux dispositifs environnementaux : il y a 2 réserves naturelles qui protègent le lac qui est inscrit au titre de la convention de Ramsar, comme l’une des plus belles zones humides d’Europe. Le lac est classé Natura 2000 (Site d’intérêt communautaire et Zone de Protection Spéciale), est classé, aussi, au titre de la Loi de 1930 sur 7500 ha, englobant le lac et ses rives (JO du 24 août 1982). La totalité du site inscrit couvre 32 ensembles bordant le lac, ZNIEFF de type I sur 6281 ha et bénéficie de l’application de la Loi Littoral. L’accès aux réserves du lac de Grand-Lieu est strictement interdit sans autorisation. La baignade, la pêche et toutes activités nautiques y sont donc interdites mais les affluents du lac et la base de loisirs de la Boulogne sont autant de terrains de jeux pour la pratique de ces activités. Pour observer le lac de Grand-Lieu, rendez-vous dans l’une des fenêtres ouvertes au public.
Located on a coastal migration route near the ocean and the Loire, Lake Grand-Lieu is home to 270 species of birds, making it the second largest ornithological reserve in France after the Camargue. The Lac de Grand-Lieu is a fragile site which forms an exceptional reservoir for biodiversity. It is the 2nd ornithological reserve in France after the Camargue which is home to more than 270 species of birds, 550 species of plants are listed there, more 50 species of mammals are present, as well as 30 species of fish and 12 species of batrachians. As a result, it is protected by many environmental devices: there are 2 nature reserves that protect the lake, which is listed under the Ramsar Convention as one of the most beautiful wetlands in Europe. The lake is classified Natura 2000 (Site of Community Interest and Special Protection Zone), is also classified under the Law of 1930 on 7500 ha, encompassing the lake and its shores (JO of August 24, 1982). The entire registered site covers 32 sets bordering the lake, ZNIEFF type I over 6281 ha and benefits from the application of the Coastal Law. Access to the Grand-Lieu lake reserves is strictly prohibited without authorization. Swimming, fishing and all nautical activities are therefore prohibited there, but the tributaries of the lake and the Boulogne leisure center are all playgrounds for the practice of these activities. To observe the lake of Grand-Lieu, go to one of the windows open to the public.

Nicht nur ich als Fotograf, sondern auch die Kohlmeise hat sich für Neues interessiert und sich der Gefahr des Neuen ausgesetzt. Ich hatte nur die Gefahr, dass sich die Tiere vor dem sonderbaren Gerät fürchten und meiden. Die Tiere wittern möglicherweise aber dahinter eine Falle, in der sie gefangen werden. Dem Mutigen, hier eine Kohlmeise, gehört die Welt, bzw. das bereit gelegte Futter.
Dare something new
Not only I as a photographer, but also the great tit was interested in new things and exposed to the danger of the new. I had only the danger that the animals are afraid of the strange device and avoid. However, the animals possibly smell behind it a trap in which they are caught. The brave one, here a great tit, owns the world, respectively the ready laid food.
"In all universes there will be fanatics, and in our world a new religion has arisen: The Church of the Holy Heart of the Machine. Fervent believers that the machines feel and that they will accompany us to paradise, they advocate caring for the machines, recycling and prayers to the officiants (who with skillful hands manage to fix any device that does not work). Richard has built his style with many iconic elements of steampunk, and the important detail at the heart of Anastyle."

The islets are made of multiple natural layers harvested in Lake Titicaca: The base is made of large pallets of floating Totora roots, which are tied together with ropes and covered in multiple layers of totora reeds. These dense roots that the plants develop and interweave form a natural layer called Khili (about one to two meters thick), which are the main flotation and stability devices of the islands. They are anchored with ropes attached to large Eucalyptus poles driven into the bottom of the lake.

In the age of Covid-19, folks, it’s important to frequently clean your keyboards and other oft-touched surfaces where the virus can collect. But be sure to use properly prescribed techniques for your devices. A heavy hand with the heel of your shoe is not the way to go.

Hello there! I hope all is well my friends! I am here featuring Fapple Calming Water. It is a device for water and breath roleplay. I am doing some different things in this bath space. I wanted a modern feel with a hint of rustic so the main colors in this space are black and brown. I love decorating a darker space as much as I love a bright cheerful one if not more. After a long day seeing darker colors on this screen can be nice. LOL Details are on the blog. Feel free to have a look! Thank you so much for the support and have an awesome day and weekend ahead!! xoxo <3333 Ebony

Northern Wheatear - Oenanthe oenanthe
The northern wheatear or wheatear (Oenanthe oenanthe) is a small passerine bird that was formerly classed as a member of the thrush family Turdidae, but is now more generally considered to be an Old World flycatcher, Muscicapidae. It is the most widespread member of the wheatear genus Oenanthe in Europe and Asia.
The northern wheatear is a migratory insectivorous species breeding in open stony country in Europe and Asia with footholds in northeastern Canada and Greenland as well as in northwestern Canada and Alaska. It nests in rock crevices and rabbit burrows. All birds spend most of their winter in Africa.
The northern wheatear makes one of the longest journeys of any small bird, crossing ocean, ice, and desert. It migrates from Sub-Saharan Africa in spring over a vast area of the Northern Hemisphere that includes northern and central Asia, Europe, Greenland, Alaska, and parts of Canada. In autumn all return to Africa, where their ancestors had wintered. Arguably, some of the birds that breed in north Asia could take a shorter route and winter in south Asia; however, their inherited inclination to migrate takes them back to Africa.
Birds of the large, bright Greenland race, leucorhoa, makes one of the longest transoceanic crossings of any passerine. In spring most migrate along a route (commonly used by waders and waterfowl) from Africa via continental Europe, the British Isles, and Iceland to Greenland. However, autumn sightings from ships suggest that some birds cross the North Atlantic directly from Canada and Greenland to southwest Europe, a distance of up to 2,500 kilometres (1,600 mi). Birds breeding in eastern Canada are thought to fly from Baffin Island and Newfoundland via Greenland, Ireland, and Portugal to the Azores, crossing 3,500 kilometres (2,200 mi) of the North Atlantic) before flying onwards to Africa. Other populations from western Canada and Alaska migrate by flying over much of Eurasia to Africa.
Miniature tracking devices have recently shown that the northern wheatear has one of the longest migratory flights known - 30,000 km (18,640 miles), from sub-Saharan Africa to their Arctic breeding grounds.
i made this photograph on beautiful day in june 2016 while visiting a dear friend in mantova. her father is un maestro orologiaio, and this clockwork is one of his charges. i thought about this photo this morning, probably because the maestro has recently celebrated a birthday. buona giornata alla famiglia gorla.

Consequences of long-term river sand mining and riverbed deepening by many kinds of powerful devices along the whole river
Mid-winter of 2017 there was a snowy owl that wintered on a farm in Bradford County, PA, about an hour drive from my home. I'd already been down once or twice. One evening, about two hours before sunset, I drove down again, parking on the road near the farm where it had been seen. The snowy was maybe 200+ yards out. I busied myself with pulling out my 2x teleconverter with my 500mm lens and then slung it back out the window. Then I saw it, this short-eared owl had caught a vole and was eating it only about 30 yards from my jeep. Pretty remarkable, especially considering this was the very first short-eared owl I had ever seen! That was a very busy time for me as I was preparing for a trip to Africa and I had made only one copy of the images. Shortly after returning from Africa, the drive with images from my SEO encounter became corrupted. The drive wasn't recognized by any PC that I tried. I set it aside, occasionally pulling it out to ensure that, no, I was right, it couldn't be seen. Then last Monday, 3.5 years later, I had a memory card issue after another amazing photo op resulting in complete wipe of another amazing encounter. I purchased restoration software and magically, I was able to restore Monday's images! This weekend I thought about this device from 2017 containing the SEO images. I plugged it in, pulled up the software, and there it was. Every single image from that incredible SEO shoot was there! Three years later, my error that resulted in nearly losing photos last Monday not only restored those photos, but also so many images and memories that I had lost from three years before. Serendipity reigns supreme! Oh, and never give up and NEVER EVER throw away a memory card. A blog is forthcoming. January 2017

The three components that comprise a jaw coupling, sometimes also referred to by the brand name shown in the picture, used to attach a motor to a driven device, typically in industrial equipment.
The design of this coupling offers a means of shock and vibration absorption through the rubber spider used to join the two hubs. Selling each hub separately allows mixing and matching shaft sizes as circumstances require, within reasonable limits.
IED, improvised explosive device , are modern soldiers worst nightmare.
By the end of 2007 they have been responsible for at least 64% of Coalition deaths in Iraq.
Here is a picture of us special forces targeted by an ied during a night mission in the afghan's desert (yeah it's not in the snow). I keep exploring in the live explosions area, made with bengal fire. You stick several together, and you should get a big blow.

This planet seems good. One species seem to be so populous they have infiltrated every continent. They do have some rudimentary language skills but their mathematic ability is so basic they would never be considered an intelligent species. Atmosphere is very similar to ours with minimal terra and bioforming needed making it cheap to colonize.
The fingers quickly tapped the device sending a communication to corporate headquarters that they could apply to the commission to colonize earth with a high degree of probability of being approved.
Within a decade the ships started arriving. Humans objected to being colonized and threw every nuclear weapon they could scrap up. The colonizers retreated back to orbit, baffled by a species intelligent enough to create a bomb that could destroy the atmosphere and stupid enough to deploy it. The colonizers requested equipment to cleanse the atmosphere which was an extra expense. By the time they received approval and the equipment, all life forms on earth were dead except for cockroaches.
The colony shipped in fauna and flora from their original planet. It was much better really. Normally it was very difficult to get permission to make a planet exactly like home. There were groups that fought for planetary diversity but really it wasn't the colonizers' fault the original species killed themselves and almost everything else.
No one was happy about the cockroaches tho. Not even the groups for planetary diversity as cockroaches spread quickly across the galaxies once a few managed to get aboard ships. Major funding was approved to eradicate them. Nothing worked. The cockroaches kept surviving and coming back. Very irritating.

Note: I added texture and the aqua lighting on the right through Photoshop. For the texture, I used NightCafe to create an image with two planets on one layer and then used the SoftLight filter in PS at 40% opacity. The aqua lighting I brushed two circles of aqua, then Guassian Filter to spread them out, then Vivid Light filters at differing opacity for each circle.
This is my original raw picture from SL
From my holidays in Morocco. I'm missing these sunny days in this beautiful country.
Holidays, travel and photography (and FLICKR) fit together... We travel and photograph and later we remember our holidays through the photographs we made, and this way, we can spend endless and very enjoyable moments. Well, this Winter, I've stayed at home all these rainy days and thanks God I've thousands of photographs to organize.
Flickr became my favourite tool to organize all my stuff in albums and collections. I have uploaded to Flickr 57,554 Photos (only 6,049 are public), and I still have many more to upload. In short, Flickr became my CLOUD and I make the most of the ORGANIZE tool. I even use Flickr to SHARE my photographs on Instagram, Facebook and others... It is my central web plataform. I cannot imagine living without Flickr...
And you? Do you use Flickr to organize your photographs and as your storage device, your cloud?
Clockmaker Hugo Stanley established his clockmaker's shop in Lahti, Finland, in 1924. Besides keeping the shop he started to make electronic clocks and when 10 years were passed he came to establish a clock factory. Stanley's clock factory mainly
made electric functioning central clock systems to rail stations, schools and factories. The clock factory also made clocks to use outdoors and different "accurate" devices.
Information from late Timo Tuomivaara: "During the last years of WW2 the Finnish army asked Hugo Stanley to make new
handcuffs very fast, because there weren't any handcuffs available to the market. His son has told that he and his father packed about 1 000 handcuffs to small, green boxes and the boxes were sent to the frontier to the military police and officers."
The lock system was made for working with the same key as the Finnish Konepaja Voima handcuffs since they also were in use on the field. The Hugo Stanley's factory employed about 10 people and was equipped with very up to date machinery. After Hugo Stanley died in 1956 his sons Arent and Oswald Stanley continued the clock factory until 1972 when they went out of
business.
The Hugo Stanley handcuffs are high precision piece of work, what else could you expect from a clock maker?
A North American residential circuit breaker. This particular style, known as ganged, is used for 240-volt circuits to ensure both hot legs trip, otherwise there would be a live 120-volt circuit from either hot leg to neutral, an unsafe condition. Industrial buildings with three-phase power use three-breaker ganged units where required for similar reasons.
While the term “circuit breaker” mainly refers to the electrical safety device in its many varieties, the name has been used in other fields to suggest a overload shutoff mechanism, such as in the world of finance and even in reference to the COVID-19 pandemic.
When Doctor Who visited Archimedes, the brilliant scientist managed to create a simplified analogue of the Tardis. Recently, Sicilian specialists managed to recreate this booth based on the surviving drawings of Archimedes, because in fact, the Roman warrior understood the genius of the scientist, and the drawings of the device have been preserved.
