For Crazy Tuesday!, I went investigating in our very messy tool drawer and found this mini "sculpture". It had created itself around a random magnet. I just clamped onto it with a well-worn wrench, and voila! (Background is a sateen coat of mine.)

Happy Macro Monday
This week's theme: Brand and Logos
Bet you haven't seen this brand in awhile. Powr Kraft is the name Montgomery Ward Co. used for their tools. I bought my first set of tools from them about 52 years ago when I was still in the Air Force.

Just over a week ago, the radar showed a potential break in the storm that was raining up and down the west coast of California. So what does any self respecting seascape photographer do? I made my way to one of my favorite local spots and enjoyed the stormy light at the beach.
This is the infamous "hole" in Hole in the Wall beach. I've passed through here hundreds of times, often running from the waves that wash through here. The tide was pretty low on this evening, and the arch was taller than usual as the storms had scoured out a lot of sand. The low tide did allow for some nice sunset reflections vs. having water movement in the foreground. I'd like to try this composition again with more waves, but the sand has already started to build back up and the interesting rocks along the bottom are starting to get covered up.
This image easily had too much dynamic range for a single exposure and is a result of double processing a single RAW file and blending it with a bracketed "fused" image using the Exposure Fusion function in Photomatix. I am keen to try more advanced image blending techniques for shots such as this where traditional filter use and single exposures just don't work.
Anyway, hope everyone had a great weekend and as always, thanks for stopping by, I appreciate it!

I gues she has watched to many home improvement shows with us and now she is sleeping on the tool bench!!LOL

ODC-the odd one / man out...
Reminds me of that Sesame St. Song..."One Of These Things Is Not Like The Others!"
Stu uses all these tools often with the exception of the big blue Broad Fork at the back, it has two handles and is used for aerating the soil. It is the only blue tool and is made of metal, not wood like the others.

Expressive hands, you can clearly see what their instruments mean to them.
Just think of all our hands can do!
Wishing you all a colourful day, and thank you as always for your time, Magda (*_*)

of another of my loves...
gardening.
what can i say?
its one of the most calming, rewarding experiences i know.
when i'm in my garden...
physically...
or mentally planning...
i can get lost for hours.
if i go outside to pull one weed...
i look at my watch to see an hour has passed...
especially if i've got my ipod and am performing for the neighbors.
today...
i walked along the perimeter of my garden...
and discovered that i have tomatoes on a few of my plants.
i was ecstatic!
i went back inside...
grabbed my camera...
and proceeded to take photos of tomatoes and flowers...
just beginning to bloom.
it began to rain...
and since i hadn't had my fill of gardening yet...
i came inside, created this photo...
and then proceeded to plant the basil seeds that were given to me with the pot.

Each specialty has its own special tools, which must have been conceived and made out of experience?
Bettering the tools all the time for the job?
Here, two specialists, Willem Vermandere and his woodcuts and Vincent Flachet, a luthier...
We had the honour to visit their workplace.
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

My tools at rest. The tablet is 12 years old and shows some signs of wear from the past 12 years (as do I) and not everything works. Still it and reading glasses to put over my regular glasses (making DIY) computer glasses are the tools I use for attempts to share a little of the majesty of life I see. Someday when I am gone, I hope these are laying there with a masterpiece on the screen and I left after a final attempt to share what I saw.
Today at Crazy Tuesday Group the theme is: tools. Since it is an orange day At Color My World Daily Group, the color for today is orange… And of course, my tiny Mr. Teddy Bear is here since it is a Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday!! So orange tools and Teddy Bear day! How cool is that.
And who is a constant need of tools (of every sizes and shapes) and happens to be a huge fan of orange color? Mr. Kosmo himself!
Tools are truly important in space. You need them to open a bottle of wine, scratch your back, comb your hair before putting your helmet on or just to repair your spaceship. And since Mr. Kosmo is now a new proud owner of red space rocket bought on ebay, he needs his tools! Indeed, the red rocket was slightly used when he got it… and a little bit beaten up (more than specified in the ebay description!). Let just say that this red rocket needs a lot of TLC before going anywhere… But Mr.Kosmo is thrilled: for the second time in his life he feels like a real astronaut !! The first time he got that feeling was when he received his orange suit and put it on for the very first time…
Mr. Kosmo isn’t a handy man (but he is truly handsome under his helmet... so he doesn’t need to be handy...or that is what he likes to think) …. That is why he invited his friend Mr. Teddy Bear who has a very successful construction company. Mr. Teddy Bear isn’t handsome but he is truly handy, so this makes him quite a catch for the opposite sex! Ladies, Mr.Teddy Bear is able to repair anything ! Give him an axe, some scotch tape and a screw driver and he will build a you plane or a spaceship !
Of course, since there is no gravity in space, it is very important to keep everything, including your tools and yourself, glued to the ground. And then the reparation of the red space rocket can begin. Good luck Mr. Kosmo and Mr.Teddy Bear !!!
Have a beautiful orange, tools, teddy bear day!!! Happy Crazy Tuesday, Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday and Color My World Daily to all participants!!
Thank you so much for your support!!! I truly appreciate your positive energy!! I wish you a very happy and awesome day!!!
I was looking for something in the garden shed today and found the old brace and screwdriver. They belonged to my grandfather. The mini-surform was my father's. I thought the mixture of smooth and textured surfaces would make a nice still-life. Added a few screws for contrast.
About 20 light-painted images, blended in PSE.
First thing you might of noticed was a fantastic maze that was hand drawn on the beach using a stick and a water bottle as a
measuring tool.
The rest is the "Strand" beach in Morro Bay, ca. on a September evening.
See comments for some more background info.
I made this for all my tools of the trade, well some of them at least! I patchworked and quilted the outside and inside, ended up quite padded and quite long! (Nearly 2 ft!)
I now just want to add one of my patchwork fabric on card tags to finish it off. I'm quite happy with it, although ended up far more complicated to do than I first hoped!!!
