Macro Mondays - Back Lit
Happy Macro Monday everyone.
I held my Galileo thermometer up to the sun and went click. The gold tags are just under 1cm and the width of the thermometer is 2 inches.
I realize that for Marilyn, this is a balmy spring day on the ranch. But I like to enjoy what little cool weather we do get here in the South. This is MY kind of weather, 16 degrees!

Some days I think Winter is wonderful! But, this morning, and it's not even light yet, there are raindrops hitting the window panes, I can hear the wind moaning, and my thermometer tells me that the temperature is barely above freezing. Not a good combination for personal comfort! I found this fire, looking all cosy, at the organic shop in Daylesford too posh to push out much heat though....
ANSH 121 #11 "Modern Times"
This is a new adaptation of the old fashioned thermometer, This unit can act as a remote one, connecting to your phone via either bluetooth or wifi. The phone can be used to set alarm temperatures as well as just to monitor temps. This one was a Christmas gift, and is sitting on the table of my smoker, ready to be attached to some meat via the probes. Modern times meets ancient art of cooking with fire.
