Got close and personal to a very vintage movie projector. It was the first time I've ever seen one of these devices and I loved the look of it! It would be cool to have one of these on display and even luckier if I used it for its purpose. It's a purchase I'll definitely revisit in the future.
Have a great day! :)

"In the unlikely event of a water landing, your throat pouch can be used as a flotation device".
I always wondered how much the inflated throat pouch got in the way when these birds come down for a drink.
Thanks for visiting!
“Black-headed Grosbeak parents fly south with worn feathers after breeding season. Their molting locations had been a mystery. The California scientists solved it with relatively inexpensive Global Positioning System (GPS) receiving devices.
They attached the 1-gm electronic devices to a leg of each grosbeak. The devices wake up every 2-6 weeks, record the GPS position and switch off. The GPS device, leg harness and leg bands weigh less than 2 g, or the equivalent of a long-distance runner carrying a laptop in a backpack. Each bird must be recaptured to download the data.” Topbirdingtours.com

The HMS Queen Mary is equipped with 24 lifeboats with a total capacity of 3266 persons. That is about 130 persons per boat, seems a bit crowded but who's going to argue in a time of need.
Each boat is equipped with an l8-B.H.P. two-cylinder Diesel engine and at the time they were the largest life boats manufactured and in use. Lessons learned from the Titanic I suspect.

Smartphones have their uses, certainly, but the combination of our devices and addictive social media algorithms, they appear to have taken over our lives rather than being a tool to enrich them.
I miss the Internet from before.
I hope that you are all having a great weekend my Flickr friends. Take care and take photos.

The Ministry of Time
Chapter III: The Saboteur's Plan
The style card and credits here
When Richard materialized in the bustling streets of New York in the year 2025, he immediately felt a disturbance in the temporal fabric. People were passing by in a hurry, unaware of the imminent danger lurking in the shadows. Following the coordinates provided by the Ministry, Richard and his companion headed towards the vicinity of a nuclear plant. As they approached, they saw a suspicious figure hunched over a device of peculiar appearance typing rapidly on it. With stealth and precision, Richard approached the saboteur, while his pulse throbbed with electric intensity. Suddenly, footsteps were heard resonating beside him, and Agent Pablo Torres emerged from the shadows, his weapon drawn and ready.
"We have you now," proclaimed Pablo with firm and authoritative voice.
The saboteur leaped and started running as Richard and Pablo chased after him. At a certain point, he abruptly stopped and with a cold smile on his face, rummaged in a pocket and pulled out a small device that he activated with a click. With a dazzling flash of light, a temporal distortion opened before him. Before Richard or Pablo could react, the saboteur disappeared into the temporal vortex, leaving the agents astonished and without clues to follow his trail.
Back at the Ministry, Richard and Pablo faced the harsh reality of their failure. The saboteur had escaped, leaving behind more questions than answers. As they discussed what had happened, Richard noticed that Pablo was out of breath, with a hand on his chest.
"Are you okay, Pablo?" asked Richard, concerned.
Pablo nodded with a weak smile. "I don't think I'll be able to join you in the next pursuit," he admitted.
Richard furrowed his brow, visibly worried about his friend's health. Later, after leaving Pablo in the infirmary, Richard reflected with amazement: "It's the first time we've seen interdimensional portals open wherever one desires. This complicates things a lot."
With time running out, they knew they had to redouble their efforts to stop the saboteur's sinister plans and protect the timeline at all costs.

Macro Mondays #InsideElectronics
7DWF: Anything Goes
Height of the frame: 5,4 cm / 2,1 inches
In the year 2112, Starship Cygnus X-1, Rush category, the flagship of the X-Cans fleet, silently orbits planet Samba on an Amazing Journey through the Musical Fidelity Universe. It is on a five-year mission to explore new musical worlds, to seek out new sounds no woman or man has ever heard before...
The subject was a rather "simple" one, because the only easily accessible "Inside Electronics" parts I had were these old tubes that used to be inside of my headphone amplifier. They are made of glass (of course) so you can see what's inside of them; making it a "double peek", if you like - an inside view of something that used to be inside of an electronic device ;-). I always wanted to use these tubes for a photo. The idea was to make it appear like a spaceship. Ever since the new tubes were installed, the amplifier sounds crappy (so I don't use it anymore; but it's 20 years old, so it's probably time for a new one...). I wasn't aware that the type of tubes can make such a difference in sound...
A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone!
Das Universum der Musik... Unendliche Weiten. Wir schreiben das Jahr 2112. Dies ist das Raumschiff Cygnus X-1, Rush-Klasse, Flagschiff der X-Cans-Flotte. Lautlos umrundet es den Planeten Samba auf einer fünfjährigen "Amazing Journey" durch das "Musical Fidelity" Universum. Viele Klangjahre von der Erde entfernt erforscht es neue musikalische Welten, die nie ein Mensch zuvor gehört hat...
Um nicht etwas aufschrauben und dabei womöglich beschädigen zu müssen (oder den elektrischen Schlag schlechthin zu bekommen), habe ich hier alte Röhren aus meinem Kopfhörer-Verstärker genommen, die ich schon immer mal für ein Foto verwenden wollte. Ein "doppelter Einblick" ins Innere der Elektronik, da die Röhren durch ihren Glasmantel sowohl Einblick in ihr eigenes Inneres erlauben als auch zuvor im Innern eines elektrischen Geräts verbaut waren. Dummerweise klingt der Verstärker nach dem Wechsel der Röhren gar nicht mehr gut (ich hätte nie gedacht, dass die Art der Röhre solch einen Einfluss auf den Klang hat), aber er ist auch schon 20 Jahre alt; vielleicht Zeit für etwas Neues...
Ich wünsche Euch eine schöne Juli-Woche, liebe Flickr-Freunde!
Ist of the Year!
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.
Getting as close as I possibly can on a circuit board, harvested from a remote-controlled power outlet whose remote went belly-up, capturing examples of tiny surface-mount devices, possibly resistors. The ruler scale at the bottom is in millimeters.
Taken with the Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens at 5X magnification. At that setting, the lens has to be less than an inch (25.4mm) from the subject, making lighting difficult. The lens and camera were attached to a macro focusing rail, a necessary but very finicky device (more so at extreme magnification) used to move the camera fore and aft to focus. Given my sometimes uncooperative set of hands I have, it was a challenge, indeed.
The girls remained in Adrienne’s living room, but everything felt eerily altered.
“They can’t see us, but we can see them,” Kayla whispered. “I moved us between dimensions.”
Through the thick fog that now separated them from their previous reality, Adrienne clung tightly to Kayla’s hand, watching the two men enter the room. Their movements were sharp, calculated, as they began combing the house.
“No one’s here. Check the device,” one commanded.
The other rushed to the closet, his fingers trailing the empty space on the shelf where the device had been only moments ago. “It was here. Now it’s gone. They were here… and they have it.
A deep, guttural growl rumbled from the bald man as he surveyed the room.
Then, abruptly, he turned—his stare locking onto Adrienne and Kayla, as if he could see beyond the veil. His nostrils flared as he inhaled deeply… Adrienne held her breath.
“The stench is strong. They were here. Not long ago. Maybe they still are.” His voice was rough, primal, as his gaze scoured the space. “We will return. We’ll track their signal.”
Again, he took in the air, then slashed a hand through the space where the girls stood. It passed through harmlessly, though he swung again. And again.
Frustration boiled beneath his skin, erupting into another low growl. “I will have you both.” With that final promise, the two men turned and left.

I built a bunch of medieval execution and torture devices back in November for a school project and am showcasing a few of them here. I guess you could say this build is a part one of two, with part two coming in two years or so. Yup, this is my last build for the next two years. I'll say more in my 2021 recap that I'll post soon.
This build was quite fun and the execution methods especially were exciting to design. I'm particularly proud of my stock design and the chopping block.
This is also my entry to the Rogues & Outlaws category of Brickscalibur.
Let me know what you think and have a nice day!

I was tired of seeing squirrels climb into my Magnolia tree and stretch to get to this feeder. Now, it is hung from it's own pole, and with a $3 Slinky and a hose clamp, the entertainment will begin.

sorry for all the barn owl i just three fantastic nights on the trot i will try and mix them in with shots of other birds but i use flickr as a easy find storing device
A suspicious device was across the street from Toys R Us. They blocked off one of the entrances to the Lakeland Square Mall. Lakeland Police was first on scene. LPD doesn't have a bomb squad, so they had to wait on TPD's bomb squad to arrive. After close investigation, it was determined to be a low jack device beeping because the vehicle it was taken off of, was stolen.
Music & the devices we have invented to listen to it are amazing discoveries/inventions that humankind has created. I know music makes me smile. :)
In 1877 the first phonograph was invented by Thomas Edison. The phonograph was the first method of recording and playing back sound. This was Edison's first great invention. Thanks Thomas Edison you helped millions of people smile and not just on Saturdays.
