Einfach ne coole perspektive. fand das zusammenspiel des lichts, der reflektion in verbindung mit dem tunnelblick irgendwie fotogen ^^.
wirkt so schön düster,...aber cool- wie ich finde ;-).
This is my latest machine, just finished yesterday.
I am calling it The Piano Player. It was made for my father's 75th birthday party which is tomorrow. He taught himself to play piano when I was a kid, and I remember him sitting with his earphones on playing away with no music to hear. I thought it would be fitting for me to make this for him since I am a self taught woodworker.
When the handle is turned, the keys that the fingers rest on move up and down and the corresponding equalizer bars in the back move with them. It is made from Cherry (frame), Maple (keys and mechanical parts), walnut (black keys and finishing dowels), Padauk (equalizer bars), and Yellowheart (hands). The final machine took close to 60 hours to finish, including having to make a custom box to transport it in. That does not include the concept and study models I started with. Dimensions are approx. 22"x16"x10"
I hope to have video edited and ready for upload sometime this coming week, along with a bunch more pictures

This retro VHS advert from a "Video Store" monthly magazine touts the cult cheesefest "Equalizer 2000" as the next must-have tape for the rental shelves. The film, helmed by the grindhouse yeoman Cirio Santiago, seemed to do brisk rental trade during the VHS era. It pops up occasionally at flea market, but isn't so common now. On the bottom is the sword-sorcery-and-skin epic "Amazons" (1986). The blurb promised "passion and power" plus "magic and myth" for this rarer release.
From a totally different trip to Porvoo as the other night shot in the stream (www.flickr.com/photos/naggobot/8174561179/). This is actually from a different winter. Special thanks to the friend who made the trip happen. Weather was far from good, it was raining snow and in addition the wind was also significant. I would not have gone out at all if it was only up to me alone.
As it is the extremish weather rewarded both of us with some nice shots. I took only three different sets of exposures until I was freezing. This is from the first set and by far the best. At least I belive so since I have not processed others yet.
Strange bokeh effect is caused by the snow on the camera lens. In reality all exposures were orange due to the lights but I decided to fake most of the image to the cooler blue instead of orange. The bridge I left warm orange and I did four different versions of the fade out to the cool blue until I settled for this.

Wren Rovers advanced to the next round with a 4-2 penalty shootout win over tital rivals Longridge Town. The game finished with 10 players on each side and Longridge equalized in the last minute
Town Showed Great Hart! A gritty comeback from 2 nil down midway through the first was started with a Tom Ince goal just before half time. Ridge came out strong in the 2nd and soon saw an equalizer from captain George Melling before a quick brace from Jay Hart put the game to bed. Town got one more through Richie Allen before AFC got a consolation. A great start to the new league with 3 points.

HOLGA is the ultimate concert photographer's equalizer. As with any professional photography there is a lot of cock and swagger going on, a bit of, "Whose got the biggest lens...?" especially down in the pit, but when shooting with the snub-nosed HOLGA, expect to get looks that suggest more than just banal stock topics over afterdinner drinks with vague allusions to Hello Kitty anal beads and dildos as swizzle sticks. That's right, with HOLGA you can move beyond the quotidian latent faggocy of testosterone-driven lens-envy and into the eternal, the asexual, the plasticine, into HONG KONG manufactured light itself.

HOME OF THE GOLDEN CADILLAC!
This place was definitely a favorite and was home to a unique mixed drink - a lot of people don't know it, but mixed drinks and cocktails were an art celebrated across the United States 100 years ago, a scene as big and vibrant as micro-brewery beer today: blogs.sacbee.com/dining/archives/2011/10/golden-cadillac....

Death is a great equalizer. I do not have great memories of everyone i've met in life but some people stood out. They stood out because they were the different ones. Some called them weird, some called them unfortunate and some called them fools. I call them victims of culture based off religious ideologies. The example i will present is a fantastic specimen.
When you live in a Brahmin community you are never short of women named "Saroja" around you. Its one of those famous brahmin names along with "Baby". Chinna Saroja (Chinna means Little in tamil) was a famous character from my childhood days. She and her husband were a unique couple. I guess i think his name was Kutti Raman (Kutti means small in tamil) but i really don't remember it that well. Her husband was the silent one like teller in the Penn and Teller show. Chinna saroja ran the show pretty much and her husband nodded, always.
Chinna Saroja and her Husband were distant relatives. They were quite rich, or rather used to be. They had it all. You can imagine them to be one of the differently rich landlord Brahmin family types. They had business, they had acres of land, farms and pretty much everything going for them in life with the exception of children. They did everything they could in this world to have children. Every doctor money could buy and every type of medication.
Of course, they did perform every pooja for all the hindu gods in the text books and off the text books. I say off the text books because a nun and a father in the lourdes church conned them and made some money claiming jesus was a hindu god and he could help with child birth. So did a gentleman from the venus mosque claim some islamic fairy to be lord ayyappans daughter and made a quick buck. My grandfather put an end to these things with the help of a few other people and of course the cops and i will reserve that incident for another very long blog post. Nevertheless, they had no children.
Saroja and her husband adopted. I really love it now to think of the fact that they were liberal enough to go to an orphanage and adopt a random child. Folks from my community / family pestered them to adopt a "Brahmin" child so that i is not subject to the thought processes of a "non brahmin" child. Many a poor family had even tried to sell them a child one could not raise due to poverty. Nevertheless, they adopted a "non brahmin" child, not one but five. The children were happy. Of course they adopted into the ways of a brahmin family system as well. They were vegetarians, spoke the brahmin accent of tamil and one could hardly recognize them if not told.
Once the children grew up they returned the favour. They drugged their parents and made them write off all the property they had to these five adopted children. With mother-loads of money in their wallet the children split and fled in different directions except one. He lived in the same house as their parents brought them up. This son was the kindest of all. He did not throw the parents on the streets like one would expect. He made them household servants instead. They did all the cooking, washing and cleaning and in return were fed 3 square meals a day, without any pay or benefits.
Saroja reminds me not because of her painful state of life but because how she made merry for everyone by making fun of herself. Every year during Golu, she would go around homes in town visiting the Golu setup. As customary as it is, she would sing. Everyone loved it, not because she was fantastic a singer but she was horrible a singer yet nothing or no one stopped her. I explicitly remember the same song she sang year after year. It went something like...
"Gundu Saroja, Baby Saroja, Kulla Saroja, Chinna Saroja"
Those were the chorus lines. It basically meant "Fatty Saroja, Childlike Saroja, Short Saroja, Small Saroja", it was a tamil song. Her own composition, apparently. You cannot forget that face because it resembled exactly like that of this Chettichi doll in this image. Unlike today's women even in their late 60's, back then women did not shave, they did not use lazer or wax their lips, skin etc., Turmeric was the only option used on the face to prevent hair growth. The yellow of turmeric made her mild mustache stand out blond and it would look so funny we kids exploded into laughter the moment we saw her. All the kids would gather around in my house from our street when she comes over for Golu.
She would take the small amount of money, the blouse bit (clothing to stitch a blouse) and the fruits and other things that were given when you visit ones house for Golu. Saroja lived her life for Golu, if you asked me. She had her moments, and it was clearly meant for those famous lines of her multi-platinum hit number sung at Golu, every year.
She passed away one fine day in sleep. Her husband was even more broke when she was no more. He came one fine day and said he was starving and his daughter in law feeds him no more. My aunt and my mother used to take pity on him and feed him lunch everyday. He would sit at the verandah and eat food out of a banana leaf. The hunger of a man 80 odd year old man who has not eaten for a whole day will show. I felt bad for him.
One fine day he came and he presented a neat "Pallanguzhi" instrument made of teak wood. It was a famous game back then before ludo and trump cards defeated old board games. He wanted to sell it and my aunt brought it for Rs. 20 from him. That was the last we saw of him. A few days later we heard he died during sleep on the pavements, right outside his house. Thaththa (Grandpa) went to the burial ground and offered his "vaaykkarisi" (dropping grains of rice on the dead persons mouth before setting on fire) before he was cremated.
I don't believe in celebrating religious festivals or practices. I somehow was reminded of Chinna Saroja looking at the doll in my house Golu today. I think i will change my mind and make an exception. I will celebrate Saroja, her husband and their life history. I hope there are other people who remember them today. I really hope..

Derived from the chassis of a civilian heavy hauler, the Equalizer matches its menacing looks with a battery of bombardment weaponry. Able to linger in battle for extended periods of time due to its reinforced plating, the Equalizer delivers punishing volleys against capital ships while also remaining a competent anti-frigate platform.
