An absolutely exquisite pair of shoes from North East Kutch. Approx 80 years old, for wearing at weddings. From the textile collection of Mr. Wazir, Bhuj.
While working in Turkey I was approached by a UK group to see if there was any possibility of repatriating any of the 8F (Churchill) locos. I knew the head of TCDD and arranged to inspect several at Cankiri and Sivas he instructed that they were not to be scrapped. The stumbling block was the price demanded (approx 50,000 Pounds. These are the inspection pictures from the spring (Sivas) and summer (Chankiri) 45166 Sivas - firebox backhead and brakestand reverser etc. Note other locos in background
I should mention that I only made one quarter of this image and then digitally mirrored it. This is the reversed version, putting the opposite corner in the center. I remember the first time I was taught how to make a curve with straight lines in math class somewhere near the end of public school. (grade 7 maybe) It blew my mind and I've been doodling them ever since. (It;s in the center of this image, all the squares that make a curved diamond)
Winters grey sky.
This is a water reflection that's been flipped over and a couple of light textures blended in to give it a painted look for sliders Sunday. It is not Fathers day here for a few weeks but Happy Fathers day to my northern hemisphere friends.

Takashi Murakami's Reversed Double Helix comprises of five individual sculptures. Tongari-kun (Mr. Pointy) (2003-2004), a 23-foot mushroom-capped Buddha-like figure, sprouting arms and hands, is flanked by four smaller, white, figures named Jikokkun, Koumokkun, Tamon-kun and Zoucho-kun (2003-2005). The Reversed Double Helix, which was on exhibit in Rockefeller Center in 2003, refers to the "the twisted spirals of DNA strands and plays upon Murakami's universe of mutant cartoon characters, where wide-eyed mushrooms coexist with multi-armed giants, happy flowers, and elfin creatures."
© MURAKAMI, the most comprehensive retrospective to date of the work of internationally acclaimed Japanese artist Takashi Murakami, was on exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum of Art from April 5 - July 13, 2008. Organized by the The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Los Angeles, the exhibit included more than ninety works in various media spanning the artist’s entire career, installed in more than 18,500 square feet of gallery space across the Morris A. and Meyer Schapiro Wing and Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Gallery.
Among the works included are many of Murakami's acclaimed sculpture figures including Miss Ko2 (1997), a long-legged waitress who has become one of the artist’s signature characters; and Hiropon (1997), a Japanese girl jumping a rope created by milk spurting from her gargantuan breasts. Among the paintings on view will be Tan Tan Bo (2001), as well as Tan Tan Bo Puking—a.k.a. Gero Tan (2002).

The Brooklyn Museum, sitting at the border of Prospect Heights and Crown Heights near Prospect Park, is the second largest art museum in New York City. Opened in 1897 under the leadership of Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences president John B. Woodward, the 560,000-square foot, Beaux-Arts building houses a permanent collection including more than one-and-a-half million objects, from ancient Egyptian masterpieces to contemporary art.
The Brooklyn Museum was designated a landmark by the New York Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1966.

This is how it's going to go down, folks. Each week, starting this Saturday, I will post a certain picture to the group. This picture will be of a tablescrap-esque item with hidden innards. Your challenge each week you choose to participate will be to figure out how it's built, and privately show or explain to me your solution. The catches:
• There may be -- and often will be -- more than one correct solution. As long as you achieve the same result, it's acceptable.
• I will put limitations on how each one may be built (e.g., "no headlight bricks")
You will have a week (until the next Friday night) to reverse-engineer mine and present to me the results. I will keep a running tally of everyone who enters, and at the end of each cycle I will award one point to each person who correctly builds the item, as well as reveal my own solution.
I will give a follow-up question to everyone who solves the original; solving this gains you an extra point!
There is no one "best" solution to many of these; and as such, everyone who solves an item correctly earns a point, no matter who else solves it, who solves it first, or how exactly it's solved. Every solution must be approved by myself, of course, to prevent any irrelevant entries.
Prizes:
1st place: A small assortment of custom parts made by L.D.M., a microtank, and a small set (small set TBD).
2nd place: The pure pride that comes from having beaten nearly everyone else.
There's no need to sign up. You could enter every week, every other week, or only once; the more you enter, though, the more points you could get! It's entirely your choice each cycle.
Be prepared!
Lots of pictures on Flickr from 180 degrees of this shot. Benson Hall Farm, Paddy Lane, Kendal, LA8
I don't need to get wet to take these shots - one through my lounge window in LA9.
a trial of using double lens reverse macro technique for microphotography on a cross section of a plant root.
55-250IS@250mm on 500D body with 18-55IS@18mm reverse mounted. This was mounted above an old microscope (with viewing optics removed) to use the mount and light for lighting and micro adjustement of focus. Shake is a major issue and this set up requires alot of light, so even with the microscope illumination, i used both lenses wide open, ISO 6400, Av with -1Ev for 1/320s exposure.
lens set up gives a calculated magnification of 250/18=13.8x. On a canon APS-C 1.6x crop factor this gives a FOV of approximately 1.6mm. After softening and noise, resolution is a little shy of the micrometer range.
Reversed lens macro. Bought this solely to photograph it. I'm guessing it tastes like broccoli since it smells like it.
Taken with a 24mm reversed onto extension tubes. A hinged hot shoe allows the flash to lean out over the stack. A DIY snoot fires the light in front of the lens.
SET 3 – HLT Remodel: 8-18-2023
Looking towards the front entrance in this picture, as viewed from a spot along the right-hand actionway adjacent to women’s apparel. Not sure how it has been on my photostream, but it feels like in person, at least, I start my visits at this store walking this way like 95% of the time, so it feels weird *ending* this visit here! In the background you can see the construction at the vestibule area, like we saw when we entered.

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
