Was loading some clothes into the back of the car to take to Goodwill and Lexi jumped up.....I loved her coloring with the inside of the car....................
I liked the framing so much I went back in and got The SpooCrew for some pics of all three......especially because they were all freshly bathed!
At the East Lancashire Railway Autumn Diesel Gala BR Class 40 1Co-Co1 No.40145 appears from the foliage heading for Brooksbottom Tunnel. This photograph was taken with my Panasonic G7 on the 23rd September 2017.
Today's job was to fit out the frame in Thuxton signalbox with levers. It was another very hot and humid day which made the job even harder. The levers, cams and quadrants arrived by train and were unloaded before we spent the day bolting everything into position. We must have shifted several tonnes of metalwork by hand. Also whilst the train was delivering materials, a couple of signalposts, two location cases, some shunt signals and many concrete bases were delivered for phase two of the Thuxton project. We also ran out 800m worth of concrete signal pulley stakes. Not a bad day's work for the four of us. Richard, Dave, Chris and myself were working on the job, with Trevor joining us for a couple of hours in the afternoon. We have a number of outstanding jobs, such as fitting three more levers that require countersunk bearing clasps and then all of this has to be cleaned up and painted! Our woodworkers will need to construct the floor around the frame too.

Hmmmm. Time to get some props out. My initial interest in photography years ago resulted in the family gifting me with one or two antique cameras which look very nice on the shelf. Here are two of them.
The Ensign Midget camera used a simple frame instead of the high spec viewfinders we're spoiled with these days. There is also a tiny viewfinder lens folded away on the left hand side from the perspective of the photographer, but using that does strange things to one's eyes. The camera was launched as a ladies' pocket camera in 1934. At 9cm x 4.5cm x 2cm when folded, it would easily fit inside a lady's purse. The silver finish on this one reveals that it was released in 1935 to commemorate the silver jubilee of King George V and Queen Mary. It is very much more rare than the standard model, which was finished in black. It belonged to my dear wife's grandmother.
Framed is a small camera dating from (I think) a little earlier. It's an APM - Amalgamated Photographic Materials Ltd. The only reference I've been able to find to such cameras is to a plate camera, but the description states that roll film cameras (like this one) were already widely used.
The issue with this photo was in getting both elements into focus. The Midget had to be close to the Canon EOS 100D I used to take the photo, with the APM positioned much further back to fit within the frame. Depth of focus problems were resolved by taking two photos and applying the wonders of Photoshop layer techniques to blend them. I then desaturated the combined image and created a sepia tone to imply age. As a photo taken around 80 years ago would probably not be as sharp as those I usually aspire to, I added a simple grey template on another layer to reduce clarity, adjusting its opacity to allow the image underneath to emerge from the fog, and finally I applied a Photoshop filter to add grain.
Another of the three Gehry buildings in Düsseldorf, Germany. It feels so great to get out of the office and think of nothing else but how ... to be done before it starts poring.

This is a polymer clay covered wooden picture frame. Ecru polymer clay was embellished with fun vines and textured with designs. The designs were brought to life with brown and turquoise acrylic paints, then wiped clean.
The photo in the frame is last year's Christmas card...also polymer clay!
