Photos taken on Jan 11, 2009 of a former Shell Gasoline Station. This station has gone through a series of owners and changes. About 5 years ago, it was cleaned up to its current appearance, looking more like how it originally appeared when it operated as a Shell Station. Located at Vermont and Venice Blvd. in Los Angeles California.

I was trying to get a close up shot of the swivel elevator but missed it. But he did have a nice sized roll bar, running horizontally here, to keep the trucks from backing into the sheller.

Himbleton's church of St Mary Magdalene is full of history, the building being very much an accumulation of the centuries with much of the fabric dating from the 12th century with 13th, 15th and 16th century alterations..The mot noticeable feature is the black and white timber-framed tower, dating from the 15th century; beyond it the main bod of the church consists of nave and chancel with little structural division apart from a north aisle and south transept (the Shell chapel).
The chief interest of the church however is it's extensive collection of ancient glass, much of it in fragments but rewarding of study. The east window is mostly a Victorian recreation, but includes a barely recognisable figure (St Mary Magdalene) in corroded glass said to be the oldest in the countyy. The remaining medieval glass is later, some good fragments from the 15th century in the north chancel window (including a border containing a stag's head rebus), a fine largely complete (though restored) east window in the transept chapel, and some good early 16th century glass in the north aisle.
The church is generally open and well worth a viit.

These shell were never used and are found at the Thistlegorm wreck in a casing of 4 pieces.
Most of the shellermen I was around kept watch on the drags all the time. It was the best way to keep an eye on how much corn was going to the machine. You sure didnt want to get a machine clogged up with too much wet, shuckey corn. Plus rocks,or metal objects would break many of the cast parts inside the sheller. There were some guys near here who built steel parts for the inside of the sheller. That were much stronger than the cast parts. But you still needed to know what was going into it.
With this, I tried to make the shell look like it was deep within a forest of ferns and leaves. The result, I think, shows the shell breaking through a clearing of leaves, where it was previously hiding.
An eroded shell fragment with numerous holes.
For Strobist readers: lit by a 580ex set to 1/2 power with a 1/4 CTO gel mounted. Bounced off a silver umbrella very close to the shell with a magazine serving as a gobo for the upper left 1/4 of the shell. Saturation increased in post-processing.
The shells are used to fuel the fire. Dried rice is poured into the bowl with black sand. Using the stick, the rice is turned continuously until all the grain have popped. Finally, the popped rice is sifted from the sand.
