This is a really common little flower here. Its very small. I'll be taking lots of pics of these. I like this shot cos the water bubble in the middle is reflecting the surroundings. I'd really appreciate if someone could give me a cropping idea.
My wife broght home a tiny turbos set for my kids. My two year old thought it wuz da bomb so of course he started asking me to make other stuff to go with it. Relentlessly.
I actually had a blast building these things but the first couple didn't go so well but of course they did suffer not having details so they could be quite a bit sturdier.
this wonderful tiny house sits along the roadside on the Charlotte Valley Road in South Worcester, New York; although I didn't get out my tape measure, I would estimate that this elegant little structure was not much more than about twelve feet by fifteen feet, or less than 200 square feet

Greenspan's Department Store, South Gate, California
Established in 1928.
Greenspan's is an 82 year old business near Los Angeles, CA, carrying classic style and hard to find clothing. They sell "dead stock", reproductions, in hard to find sizes and styles, piled to the ceiling of their South Gate, California store. Since the 70's they have specialized in the styles of the 30's, 40's, 50's, and 60's, in work casual, and dress men's categories. Theyhave sold clothes to many celebrities, movies, TV shows, videos, album covers, as well as many generations of Southeast Los Angeles County families
Founded in 1928 in the nearby community of Watts. Greenspan's was run by Alex Greenspan (b.1899-d.1965), and Eva Greenspan (b.1899-d.1955). The Greenspan family lived in the back of their store from 1928 to 1939. The store was destroyed by fire after the 1933 Long Beach Earthquake, and was rebuilt by Alex Greenspan. In 1939 they started a second location, in the nearly growing city of South Gate.
This location was run by Edward Greenspan (b.1926-d.2009). In 1944 the Watts location closed, and South Gate continued as their only store.In the 1950's Edward Greenspan designed The A-1 Pegger pants for the A-1 Kotzin Company, and he designed the "beach combers". He also sold Ed "Big Daddy" Roth his first T shirts to silk screen. In the 1970's Edward Greenspan began to buy huge volume of (then) unwanted cotton and wool clothing from the 30's, 40's, 50's, and 60's. He would sell it to his customers who included lowriders, rockabillies, cholos, gang members, punks, who liked clothing styles that were fashionable before the 1970's.
After the major studios downsized, and many sold off their own wardrobe department, Greenspan's began selling their older style clothes to Hollywood movie productions. Many movie wardrobers and costumers began looking to Greenspan's for brand new "period" wardrobe. Also boutiques on Melrose in LA, in San Francisco, stores from Europe and Japan, began buying clothing styles of the 40's and 50's. In the early 1990's. Greenspan's sold many vintage work and jail clothes to hip hop artists, like NWA (Ice Cube, Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, and MC Wren,) Cypress Hill, Above The Law, and Compton's Most Wanted, who then went on to wear them on MTV, and created what became know in the fashion world as "West Coast Hip Hop" style clothing.
Greenspan's had many customers in many niches, that liked to dress different than the mainstream. so over the years Greenspan's customers have included bikers, pachucos, "OGs", cholos, hippies, rude boys, rockabilly, hot rodders, lowriders, cruisers, greasers,.gang members and many other people who wanted to dress different from the crowd.
Aside from the wide assortment of clothes including over 1,000 brands, Greenspan's has recently began authentically reproducing vintage style hats, coats, shirts, shoes, and pants.
Some of the brands they carry are Pendleton, Stacy Adams, Zig Zag "winos", Levi's, Dickies (they were Dickies first California store,) Ben Davis, Hush Puppies, Stetson,Ooo Gee's by Greenspan's, Cascade, Greystone, Bailey Hats, Cotler, Foxfire, FR, Falcon Bay, Renegade, Dobbs, as well as Dyse One, OG Abel, Joker Brand, and Tribal Gear.
They have many hard to find styles that have been discontinued like Imperials, Charlie Browns, OooGee red liners, initial stretch belts, car club coats, many out of production Pendleton board shirts, french toe shoes, clicker coats, romeos, bowling shirts, lowrider straw hats, two tone all leather wingtip shoes, boot cut twill jeans, county coats, and "th largest supply of...colors of the classic Pendleton 'Boardshirt' shirt in the world...the last original clothing store.1

His foster Mom, Valorie, sent me this adorable picture of tiny Honda today. She is fostering and bottle feeding him.
I saw yet another tiny planet today and was inspired to do a google search on how to create my own... unfortunately I don't have any overly suitable images as I don't usually take panoramas so I used a snapshot of a tree in a field I took over the weekend... It looks better in black and white... I will have to go out and take a landscape photograph with a nice evenly coloured sky and more interesting objects!

After taking this picture, I remembered my Kershaw Chive, which probably could fit into the "tiny knives" category.
With my finger to give an impression of the size of Chelostoma campanularum. There are at least four utilising my "aculeate post" today.
I was actually taking the photo of the driftwood, when the tiny crab decided he wanted his picture taken as well. He's about the size of your little fingernail.
So I need more practice photographing newts. They were all over the shoreline where I put the kayak in on Mountain Brook Reservoir. I spent about 45 minutes marveling and what great little hunters they are and this is the best shot I got. I love how their tails and legs change when they mature and head for the water for the rest of their lives. And they keep those orange spots!
