An old UK 'finger post' roadsign from the old Lindsey County Council. This area once covered the northern area of what was Lincolnshire - Lindsey was one of the 'parts' of Lincolnshire pre 1974. This road marker survived the Humberside County Council era of 1974-1996 and is still pointing drivers to places in the current North Lincolnshire era, 1996-?
This signpost is in someone's back garden and you can see the top of their garden shed. Not sure if it's always been in that position or if it was 'smuggled' there over the wall to save it from being replaced. There is only one other sign like this in the area that I know of but plenty more in adjoining counties.
Friends have continuously asked me the reasons for why I have always chosen to post the black and white pictures in my photo stream. Its because I just love it and I feel it brings more passion and explains the surrounding much better. Like people use to say "Old is Gold"
Location: Palace of Westminster, London
Old School Sears in Santa Monica, California, across the street from Santa Monica Place mall, by the looks of of it, it's really Art Deco, which I like, wish I had gone in, we just stopped to use the restrooms at Macy's, now a Bloomingdale's!
Got this off eBay for 192 bucks shipped last week and it finally arrived last night from California. It is a Burke & James Orbit 4x5 view camera... pretty much the same as the Calumet CC400 series of cameras, which are the same as the Kodak Master View 4x5s. It is probably along the lines of 40 to 50 years old now, as I think they stopped making them in the mid '60s. BUT, it looks like it hardly ever saw any rough use or handling. Almost no paint loss, a perfect bellows, and came with a case, light cover, and about a dozen 4x5 film holders.
The lens is a 135mm f/4.5 Yamasaki "CONGO" which I researched online and can be below-average to above-average in performance depending on your sample. It has a little bit of oil on the aperture blades, but the oil does not seem to impair its functioning. 135mm in 4x5 translates to about 40mm in full frame "35mm" format, so not quite as wide as I'd like, but I'll play around with it and if I don't like it, I figure I can probably sell it for what I paid for it, and if I do like it, maybe upgrade the lens to a better 90mm (which is more like 28mm in 35mm format). I plan on shooting some landscapes with it when Jen and I head down the Blue Ridge Parkway in the fall. It is heavy, so I don't suppose I'll be lugging it very far into the woods, but on some of the great Parkway overlooks, it'll be fun to shoot.
I should mention that this was once owned by a guy named John Sullivan of Fresno, California. His name and phone number are spray painted on the case in that old "cargo" style lettering and he has old fashioned plastic labels on every film back. I think the guy I bought it from was an estate dealer, so I suppose John has passed on. But his camera will continue going to good use! :)

Oxfords finest, or should I say Germanys finest?? Who would have thought a cool 'British' icon from our friends from Germany? There has been a lot of debating among the ranks of the Mini purists that the (BMW) Mini is not a “real” mini, the purist will tell you the since the Germans got involved the Mini lost its soul, I’m not so sure about that but what I am sure about is it a very cool little motor. Lets be honest the old minis have had their day, even the ones which have been lovingly restored would struggle to accommodate anyone over 6ft tall… for this reason The (BMW) Mini - I salute you!
Bad rain today so not worth going out for me. Thought I would upload a set of 5 shots of the old Jetty @ Snettisham. We all take photos of it in it's various moods & tide states. first 3 taken with my Panasonic over several years, the last two taken in March this year with the P1000 just before I went into lockdown for 3 months!
This old Jetty was destroyed in the very big tidal surge January 1953 & is slowly getting worn down by the big seas when we have another storm. I do have an album of shots of this jetty over several years entitled "In memory of January 31st !953"
