At my old house, I enjoyed watching the male wren flying in and out of an outbuilding with nesting material, busily building a nest... and then more recently the adults constantly flying in and out with beakfuls of food. I hid myself a distance off from the door they were flying in, and was pleased when this adult stopped to pose on this old drill bit that was leaning against the building :D
At the moment we are in the middle of decorating and all my junk (including, as some have said, all my camera gear lol) is packed away in boxes. However I have kept some stuff out in case it is needed, I am not sure why I have included a sensor cleaning swab as I am not brave enough to mess with my camera sensor at all!
The drawer is 11 x 6 x 5 inches and the image of the entire drawer is used for 124 pictures in 2024 group theme # 46 Higgledy-piggledy. The area of the shot for MM is approx 2.75 inches square.

One of those things in the basement that might be useful some day.
Shot with a 1980's Olympus 80mm macro lens with an adjustable extension tube mounted on a micro 4/3's camera with an adapter. All focus and aperture settings are manual, just like the old days.

Ken Blake
(27 October 1945 – 9 Jun3 1981)
Unveiled by his excellency the Honourable Hieu Van Le AC, Governor of South Australia on 28 October 2018
This sculpture celebrates the life and achievements of Ken Blake, and Australian motorcycling icon.
Blake grew up in Strathalbyn.
He started racing a 1964 Triumph in 1966 and went on to conquer the greats in his chosen sport, winning 11 national championships.
Tragically, Ken Blake died in 1981 after crashing his Yamaha TZ350 motorcycle during the Isle of Man Tourist Trophy race.
The sculpture depicts Blake and a Suzuki RG500. He famously won the 1976 Australian 500 Tourist Trophy on this model motorcycle, defeating 15-time World Champion, Giacomo Agostini in a thrilling race.
This is in Strathalbyn in South Australia.
A really clever and skilled sculpture. so well done.
It is the work of Goolwa artisan James Stewart. James, who specialises in assemblage art, creating pieces from recycled, scrap and new metal.
From the legacy of my father
Drill bits are cutting tools used to remove material to create holes, almost always of circular cross-section. Drill bits come in many sizes and shape and can create different kinds of holes in many different materials. In order to create holes drill bits are attached to a drill, which powers them to cut through the workpiece, typically by rotation. The drill will grasp the upper end of a bit called the shank in the chuck.
Shot for MacroMondays (although forgot to add to group this morning!), I came across this when looking in my drawer of bits and bobs and seemed a good idea for a different take on the theme this week. Like others have said, I can't believe I missed the first five and half years or so of MacroMondays - I haven't missed one yet since I started!!
Happy Birthday MM and HMM all!
This was taken in my backyard again. This time I used my Zero image 4x5 pinhole camera, with photo paper. I used rubber bands to attach it to the top of my porch covering. It was laying flat, face up. I've been playing with different containers, some I punch a hole through, some use a premade hole. Still trying to get a good match between pinhole diameter and focal length for an adequate resolution. I found a set of tiny drillbits a while back and used one about .75 mm through a Fosters lager can. That and the Zero image have produced the best results so far for me.

This is my final shot in the sequence of drill bit macros for the theme "Twist" . I hope it hasn't been a "boring" experience
I still remember the day I walked into a Sears store and bought this Craftsman brand of drill bits. My father taught me the value of “spending good money on a good tool that will last you a good long time.”
Twenty plus years later these still cut through wood and steel like butter!

We pretty much all have to deal with minifig arms and legs being too tight for paint or decals to stick on best, and so a common solution is to sand down minifig sides or the rounded tops of legs so that when rotated, the paint won't be scratched off as easily because it isn't in the way of plastic that isn't all there anymore.
This can get a little difficult to do well, so I'm sharing my solutions.
I take a drillbit the size of the hole in the leg and work it around, twist it and shave off just a little of the inside plastic, so that the leg is a bit looser on its peg, giving a little bit of room for the paint to not-die every time it is rotated (more of a problem for some paints than others).
I sometimes do the same thing with arm sockets, except with a round metal file. A drillbit the size of the hole would work just as well.
The other thing that I sometimes do for arms--don't do both of these things!--is to lightly sand down the peg of the arm, making it looser and more easily rotatable.
The point of this is that the paint ends up making the minifig limb just as tight as unpainted, unmodified minifig limbs, and not tighter.
We inherited these tool bits from an uncle but we don't know what they do!
These small steel bits with very sharp points. They vary in length from 38-48mm.
The shanks are square and obviously fit into a handle (which sadly we don't have).
They are in two screw-top containers, one wood, the other metal.
We would appreciate any ideas on what they are for, in what activity they were used etc.

Used a Titanium Nitride (TiN) drill bit (easily identified by the gold like colour). Had taken quite a few shots before this one from different angles, but didnt find any of them really appealing until I used some DIY Blue gel to get this lighting. In hindsight, I should have used a reflector on the right.

Rope tornado southwest of Russell, Kansas. The weather models on the morning of May 25 were a great surprise and we rushed out to Kansas quite unexpectedly. We had a very interesting experience with this tornado. Once we fought our way out of the rain, it appeared, came after us, then roped out. That hardly left enough time for photos!
Macro Monday theme of Motion Blur was not something I found easy. I like control with macro, usually a shallow dof and quite tight margins for focus - moving things around is tricky.
After nearly not bothering, having tried and failed, I had a quick plumbing job to do and thought that since my drill was out (for undoing screws, not drilling pipes!) I might be able to get a shot. I popped a hole saw on the end of the drill and slowly rotated the bit, using a flash at the start to grab some detail and leaving a longer exposure to get some movement. I hope the movement/blur is clear enough.

Not that Stendhal was a DIY man that I know of, but it sort of came to mind as I put together this tabletop shot, this modern-day nature morte of sorts...
Composite shot made up of 11 focus-stacked exposures, set automatically using the built-in function on the Z7 camera. Stack processed with Helicon Focus. Nikkor Z 50mm ƒ/1.8 S lens.
And the winner is...
Excelente Martes para todos! y como siempre, gracias por pasar.
