FOUND ITEM at the HUNKY JESUS CONTEST...it was fun finding a few things at the contest grounds, but it was MORE fun seeing other photographers capturing those LOST ITEMS ! ADDA wanted to tap them on the shoulder and say, "If you want views, go for the BARE CHESTS, if you want FOUND OBJECTS go to ADDA's non-view flickr set!" LOL
Continental Motors once built car engines on this site, but the buildings have been abandoned for many years. Here you see a collection of discarded items on the cracked concrete in front of the boxy buildings with their colorful wall art. For more information on Detroit's impressive industrial runs, see my ebook, A Guide to Post-Industrial Detroit: Unconventional Tours of an Urban Landscape -- More Information.
She was wearing something bawdy as usual, something to catch the attention of the ladies green eye and the gentlemen's drooling eye. Something bold and a bit raffish, as usual, a big brassy yellow flocked gown, with black lace up at the bust anything to catch their attention.
A piece of a hard ware flourish embellishment from the Victorian 1880s, I'd imagine, has been plucked from a salvage yard and added to a brass chain to make a charming adornment for your neck. Brass lobster clasp closure.
The flourish is 2inches/5cms.
The chain measures 23.25inches/59cms.

This tin can angel seems to burst out of the wall. He's little different and funny. Ingredients are a tin can, spring, hinge, doll arms, sewing machine hinge and air-dried clay face.
Love this sardine can cause it still has the key and the tin roll. Inside has marbled paper, a wrist watch, plastic leaves and a real burr. On top is a clay raven.

Plundering through my stash, I found some watch parts I had forgotten about. I so love the guilloche engraving on this one.
Yeah ... coming across such things is kind of like peeking through a knothole ... or a wormhole that provides a glimpse into an alternate universe. But my curiosity does have its limits.
A braze welded sculpture of recycled bicycle parts. The legs and hips are rear derailleur plates, and the tail, head, and jaw of the mount is a brake lever and housing. The teeth are chain pins on a link plate.
The rider's torso is made of two rear derailleur mounting pegs, and a brake caliper forms its shoulders and arms. In its right manipulator is a spring clip from the underside of a saddle, and in its left is a staff of a handlebar stem bolt and expander nut, rear derailleur spring, and a wheel bearing race nut.
On its shoulders is an epaulette of a brake cable guide sleeve and a head of a tube clamp and alignment washer. It wears a jaunty hat of a headset locknut.
A warning sign found washed up on the beach in Departure Bay, my son's broken skateboard, rusted-iron dolphins fashioned by my partner, a shovel, and several other items. The haphazrd installation is part of a cemetery in my backyard on Vancouver Island. The vegetation is my friend. More about the cemetery can be found in my blog's cemetery catergory.
