It looks as if this machine comes from the early industrial era. Clearly electro plating was an important process needed in the railway workshops. This photograph is designed to reflect the grunge and grime of the period.
This was the view of Chrome Hill as I had successfully descended the most treacherous bit of the Parkhouse ridge (mainly on my derriere). My Scarpa Manta boots had a coating of sticky mud on their Vibram soles, which meant staying upright on the slippy limestone quite impossible. There wasn't enough snow and ice for crampons, so I have now ordered some micro-spikes for situations like this in the future.
It was strange to see the Peak District's "Dragon Back Ridge" coated by snow and ice on the North faces, with the South sides being cleared by days of winter sun. I think the effect accentuates the shape of this wonderful reef feature. Hence the pun on "winter chrome-plating"!
It was quite an exhilarating little trek, in fact I found the Parkhouse descent quite embarrassing, having scaled many a peak in the Alps, I have never before had to slither around like a geriatric sloth on a descent from a hill. I'm just glad there were no others around to watch it!
You can see from this shot and another I will post at some point, how exposed this little ridge is. You certainly get a lot of excitement from this Hill and the view of Chrome is just great from here.
A gold plated RCA jack (phono jack). The gold plating provides corrosion resistance for a more reliable connection; its look is just an added benefit.

Is this a vessel, a flagon or a chalice? See here: Click
Let's call it a bottle, then.
As (fun) part of a chemistry experiment, we silver-plated the insite of a small glass bottle (about 50 ml, which I had purchased at Woolworth for 75 Euro cents).
The chemical process:
In a solution of silver nitrate in water, the silver nitrate dissociates to silver ions (+) and nitrate ions (-).
Ammonia is added, whixh decomposes to ammonium ions and hydroxide. Silver ions and hydroxide ions combine to silver oxide and water. The silver oxide has a low solubility and precipitates.
Adding further ammonia, the precipitate is transformed into a silver diammine complex, which again dissolves in water.
Adding potassium hydroxide, then glucose reduces the ions to metallic silver, which is deposited on the interior surface of the glass bottle. In case you are worried about what happens to the glucose in the process: it turns into gluconic acid.
The glass vessel is shown before and after the interior silver plating.

Obsessed with Andre Breton's surrealistic wishes of pan-transparency mandate in private and public affairs, McCullough made it clear in his personal architectural manifest (filed in screwedCITY Grand Archives) that his work would represent never-ending inner struggle between his concrete right and his glassy left. Though there are many traces of such struggle scattered throughout screwedCITY, tarNICHE bureaucratic stockade is probably the most dramatic example of it. Widely known as the building with lowest window-to-solid-wall ratio in the world, its relentless concrete outer shell plating is in stark contrast with interior made entirely of glass partitions.
Accordingly, office parties in tarNICHE have even more strenuous and competitive agendas than business meetings...
Plating Geranium backs. I was culling the dead and wilted leaves and thought these were beautiful. If you buy the scented varieties they would be totally edible!

Plating up at the Madklubben dinner at Cail Bruich Restaurant in Glasgow on Monday evening. I am constantly amazed how so many people can work so well together in such a small space - Team work at its best!

Serving up the meat (there was a variety by the way) during Saturday night’s meat lovers delight at Locavore to Go in Ubud, Bali … seriously nice food with great service at a great price. All the meat is from their butchery right next door.

one from last years visit to Chester zoo. I planned a series of abstract close ups; in my head I saw Giraffes, Zebras, Tigers etc, etc... but the Rhino's were the only ones willing to play ball :-)

This is just a compost bowl. It looks like some fancy dessert, some bougie preparation plating, but it's just an espresso puck, some strawberry guts, and radish roots.
Somewhere on a desert highway
She rides a Harley-Davidson
Her long blonde hair
Flyin' in the wind
She's been runnin' half her life
The chrome and steel she rides
Collidin' with the very
Air she breathes
The air she breathes.
Marinated beef steak, sweet potato with beetroot puree, caramelized ginger and carrot, avocado and some micro greens.
Got to be ready for my cooking degree and whats better than practicing at home and taking your own photos!
First attempt to cook and photograph a dish and i have to say i like the result though it took me 3 hours from zero to this.
Hope you like it more to come :)
