One of the Sculptures decorating the Media City area of Salford quays, although I have taken the shot to use it in the foreground, it is actually supposed to depict the number 9, I assume media city is based on pier 9.
One of the first images I shot our recent trip to Salford quays in Manchester captured again in the blue hour, which I felt suited the mood very well.
Prints available to view and order from my website:
Wow this is a covering of a church under renovations, but it gave me the impression that someone was going to have a big job painting by numbers on this one. This is in Worcester UK
Macro Mondays, theme: Numbers and Letters
Hasselblad/Zeiss Makro-Planar 135mm-f/5.6 manual lens, set to f/5.6.
Five-image focus stack.
For an image with scale, see here:
In math, the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 (... and so on) are called "natural numbers".
Therefore, I played with this definition, putting them in a "natural environment". ;-)
P.S. In fact, the truth is that I truly love this "spring setup", with the blurry roses in background. :-D
Have a nice Wednesday evening, my dear Flickr friends! ;-)

Arabic numbers depicted on the inch and a half diameter seconds dial with part of the Roman minute numerals on the top.
This colour scheme was just for 1964 on this Class 47 with the BR symbol in the square red boxes.
A few model rail companies have made them, mine is an example in OO scale by Heljan.
Süße Nummern!

Tape measure with both inches and the easier to use centimetres. Very necessary use of numbers when sewing! HMM:))
i really love this one so im playing with the editing more. i might use it in a portfolio. we'll see. i think this one is a little too washed out. i like the other one better.
I tried something different for Macro Mondays this week, I used a number Four celebration
shiny, sparkly, blue candle, behind I placed a few red plastic numbers, then put them in a black box, lit the candle and snapped the image.
Love & Peace everyone!
Please stay safe in these
worrying times. 😷
A typometer is a ruler which is usually divided in typographic points or ciceros on one of its sides and in centimeters or millimeters on the other, which was traditionally used in the graphic arts to inspect the measures of typographic materials. The most developed typometers could also measure the type size of a particular typeface, the leading of a text, the width of paragraph rules and other features of a printed text. This way, designers could study and reproduce the layout of a document.
One of the domains where the typometer was most widely used was the editorial offices of newspapers and magazines, where it was used along with other tools such as tracing paper and linen testers to define the layout of the pages of the publications, until the 1980s.
Typometers were initially made of wood or metal (in later times, of transparent plastic or acetate), and were produced in diverse shapes and sizes. Some of them presented several scales that were used to measure the properties of the text. Each scale corresponded with a type size or with a leading unit, if line blocks were divided by blank spaces. However, typometers could not be used to measure certain computer-generated type sizes, that could be set in fractions of points.
Due to the technological advancements in desktop publishing, that allow for a greater precision when setting the type size of texts, typometers have disappeared from most graphic design related professions. It keeps being used, even today, by traditional printers who still employ type metal. Source Wikipedia.
No wonder the furnace didn't work!! This is (a part of) the main brain of our furnace - the circuit board, to which everything is hooked up. Egads.. no air conditioner! It's too hot! Luckily, the HVAC guy was able to rig it to constantly run the air conditioner and fan until a new circuit board came in 2 1/2 weeks later. Then he gave me this beauty. :-) He said "but it's rusty and corroded!" and I said oh goody! Perfect for my macro pics! lol.. and it has numbers for HMM too. HMM! :-)

Twin primes: pairs of prime numbers that are close to each other, almost neighbors, but between them there is always an even number that prevents them from truly touching. If you have the patience to go on counting, you discover that these pairs gradually become rarer. You encounter increasingly isolated primes, lost in that silent, measured space made only of ciphers, and you develop a distressing presentiment that the pairs encountered up until that point were accidental, that solitude is the true destiny. Then, just when you’re about to surrender, when you no longer have the desire to go on counting, you come across another pair of twins, clutching each other tightly.
