Feel free to see my photo on the following social networks: Facebook | Instagram | 500px | YouPic

This photo it's a compo of two layers. The half bottom part processed in HDR and increased contrast. The upper part of the sky is a long exposure photo which has shooted in 261", from another photo, becouse in the current photo the sky had no clouds. Both photos are mine. When I first saw the photo with the boat I though it would be more interested to created as I did. I hope you like it...

This hands-free hanging magnifier belonged to my paternal grandparents. Van Waffle (Pappy) might have used it for looking at his stamp collection or Fern (Mimi) might have used it to read books and the newspaper. I felt closer to Pappy than my other three grandparents. He had been a self-made, successful business owner and a hard man by many accounts. I never saw that side of him. The year I was born he suffered a heart attack and retired. I guess it softened him. He had time for me. He remained active and did not have another heart attack until 20 years later when he died peacefully in his sleep, age 82. I've kept this magnifier since Mimi moved out of their house into a nursing home 30 years ago, knowing it would become useful someday. So far I have only used it two or three times to fix difficult knitting errors. Pappy would be puzzled to find me using it in fibrecraft, but he shared my enjoyment of gardening and storytelling.

Einmal steigen wir alle aus und widmen uns unseren Hobbies, so wie der Fotografie. Dieses Rad hat es geschafft und ich habe es auch :-)

Another old fishing boat that has seen better days from Dungeness.

I can still view kids swinging on this old tire. Can also view the barn without the swinging door!

This farm found in eastern central Iowa down some remote back road.

I came across this old buckboard in a shed at the Chellberg farm, located within the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore in northwest Indiana. Anders and Johanna Chellberg were among the many Swedish immigrants who purchased land and began farming in the area in the 1860s. The National Park Service has restored the Chellberg farm to its appearance around 1900, though I don't think the buckboard was totally restored. :-)
