Away with limited wifi so apologies for not keeping up with everyone...shall catch up properly in a few days. Happy New Year to you all.
This is a Penn reel I use for surf fishing, for Macro Mondays theme "Gone Fishing". The image covers a width of about 2 inches of foreground.
In the 18th century, several attempts were made to develop a machine to replace "hand sewing." It wasn't until around 1830 that the first sewing machines appeared in sewing workshops, much to the dismay of manual workers, but the development of this new invention was unstoppable. Initially, these sewing machines used a chain stitch with a single thread, later evolving to a system with a loose bobbin at the bottom and a thread at the top; this is still used in most sewing machines today.

Fisherman fishing off the wharf
Bedford Channel, Fraser River
Fort Langley, BC
Across the channel, a ribbon of campfire smoke escapes through the trees.
Fort Langley is a village community forming part of the Township of Langley in British Columbia, Canada. It has a population of 3,400. It is the home of Fort Langley National Historic Site, a former fur trade post of the Hudson's Bay Company. Lying on the Fraser River, Fort Langley is at the northern edge of the Township of Langley.

Old school fishing, two silhouettes in a small pleasure craft... equipped with rods and reels.
Did you happen to notice the swell of the ocean approaching the port side of the boat?

Macro Monday - Wood
These are miniature wooden cotton reels, from my craft stash, the smallest is about 2cm high and the largest about 5cm. HMM
I got locked out of my Flickr account today, I don't know if it was because I'm not on Flickr so much or if it was just being a bad panda but luckily after a while it recognised my password. Anyone else had this problem?
Got obsessed with:
Juxtaposition of colour
Detail in the thread
The tops of the reels
How the light plays on the overlapping thread
Ended up with a bit of all of the above.
Was never going to be an issue with finding thread in our house as my wife loves leatherwork and our son is off to Uni to study textile design!
Reel-to-reel machine + Magnetic tape 7 ½ ips, 4-Track Stereo, Double album, K3002, Polydor, 1971.
Below is a quote from Wikipedia:
"...Back to the Roots is a 1971 double album by John Mayall released on Polydor. Recording sessions took place both in California and London where Mayall invited some former members of his band, notably guitarists Eric Clapton and Mick Taylor.
At the end of the 1980s Mayall remixed some tracks and issued them along with some of the older material as Archives to Eighties. An expanded two-CD version of Back to the Roots now includes both the original and later remixed versions of the tracks..."

When you reelize that all the slips on the fishing boat side of the harbor are being used and you have to park it with the private boats.
Pillar Point Harbor, just north of Half Moon Bay, California.
I saw my first ever Grasshopper Warbler last week it was a very brief view. This week I was lucky enough to see another one, this time I was able to get a number of shots of this secretive bird as it sung deep in the scrub.
Fishing Reel
For Macro Monday - Reels
A couple of years ago our state government decided to give every year five student a fishing rod and reel. This was the reel that came with Sarah's rod. We replaced it with a better quality reel.
The external diameter of this reel is 50mm.
A quick post and run as my physio appointment was changed from this morning to this afternoon so I have to 'hit the road' to Footscray shortly.
Happy Macro Monday!
My contribution for this weeks Macro Mondays. My favourite thread for presents got to be my object for today sitting on its reel.
My favourite genre is Still Life and I'm hoping at some point I will be able to get back into the regular swing of it _ maybe I could get myself some sort of back support to avoid the inevitable aches and pains! I do find heat pads particularly soothing. Ha ha - forgive my ramblings - this is supposed to be about photography !
This photo was created for the theme "Old Stuff" in The Flickr Lounge .
This is an Olympic Dolphin 631 fishing reel. My father had it as long as I could remember. He had a couple in different sizes and some of them were Penn Reels. It was never easy to cast using these fishing reels, but theay are strong.
