I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in. ~George Washington Carver
As the great duo, Simon & Garfunkel said:
"I don't know a soul who's not been battered
I don't have a friend who feels at ease
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered
Or driven to its knees
Oh, but it's alright, it's alright
For we've lived so well so long
Still, when I think of the road we're traveling on
I wonder what's gone wrong
I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong."

A DLC do GTA Online, Los Santos Tuners me trouxe a oportunidade de comprar um novo negocio, minha oficina de tuning.
Venham comigo conhecer o espaço e fazer a missão de preparação, recuperando o carro do meu sócio que foi apreendido pela policia, enquanto ele coloca o negocio para funcionar.
Acho que fiquei com a parte mais arriscada do trabalho.
Venham comigo para ver como resolvi a situação.
The DLC from GTA Online, Los Santos Tuners brought me the opportunity to buy a new business, my tuning workshop.
Come with me to visit the space and do the preparation mission, recovering my partner's car that was apprehended by the police, while he puts the business to work.
I think I got the riskiest part of the job.
Come with me to see how I resolved the situation.
I like to play as realistically as possible, within what the game allows, without flying motorcycles, helicopters and jet planes appearing out of nowhere. I like the fun and not getting like a robot playing fast to make money.
Eu gosto de jogar da forma mais realÃstica possÃvel, dentro do que o jogo permite, sem motos voadoras, helicópteros e aviões a jato aparecendo do nada. Eu gosto da diversão e não ficar como um robô jogando rápido para fazer dinheiro.

It's amazing how these modern cameras can see in the dark. I stood in front of this giant dish for three hours, and I couldn't see a thing. Just heard some loud rumbling noises as it was constantly moving. Kinda freaked me out at first.
The bridge changed colours often and quickly as average punters stepped up and programmed the lighting. The facades of the CBD buildings danced in tune to the bridge changes.
Happy Macro Mondays!

Took two, had a hard time deciding which one I wanted to submit.

Just the right amount of tension on a guitar string, in relation to the other 5 perfectly tensioned, will yield a beautiful sound.

This Morris PSV chassis is one of 36 commissioned by BMC's management to serve as Mobile Service Training Units (MTUs), which travelled around the dealership network training mechanics in the procedures required to maintain the latest models, including the newly introduced, front-wheel-drive Mini. The first six MTUs, a mixture of right- and left-hand drive, were built on modified 5-ton FF-K100 chassis and delivered towards the end of 1959
Following their success a further order was placed with Marshall Motor Bodies of Cambridge. This second group of vehicles was constructed on the longer FF-K140 chassis. Designed by Pinin Farina and built by Marshall's with all-aluminium coachwork, they were equipped to a very high specification. A handful of these MTUs served quite different and considerably more glamorous purposes, being assigned to the BMC Competitions Department and the firm's Special Tuning operation. As was the case with this vehicle, used initially in the UK then on the Continent. When the company decided that these mobile classrooms were too expensive to run, they were returned to the UK and used for other purposes or sold off. This example is one of two left had drive units sent to Canada in the early 1970s. Canadian registered in 1973 the MTUs were used for a further two years, before being left at the Dofasco Steel Company's plant in Hamilton, Ontario for a further seven years, before being purchased by two of that companies employees. This one was sold on in Canada and converted to a Motorhome. When sold on it still had its UK registration number papers BMC 27, after sixteen years ownership sold it to a dealer who immediately offered it for sale, it found a UK buyer and was shipped back to Blighty. A renovation was carried out, and partly restored it was offered for auction in 2005, the new owner kept it until 2015 since then it has been treated to a professional restoration Traces of the original dark blue paintwork were discovered during the rebuild, but it was decided to complete the restoration by finishing the vehicle in Special Tuning livery to resemble '146 PFC', the original Special Tuning support vehicle. It is registered with the DVLA as a Motorhome registration 824 UYW as so far it has been impossible to reunite it with the original number BMC 27 the main problem being the non-existence of the Middlesex licensing records, long since destroyed.
Currently fitted with running water, a kitchenette unit (hob and sink), fridge, and a 'rock 'n roll' double bed complete with safety belts. The vehicle also has an opening rear door, a full-width ramp, and an electric winch, and can easily accommodate a sizeable competition car.

The last time I visited Tsukiji Fish Market was back in the Winter of 2006, and I remember I had just got my 50/1.4 lens, using it on a 30D body, running around snapping everything I saw. This time it was with a Rollei and more of a relaxed stroll through the narrow paths, trying to avoid the electric karts, observing the people who work there and trying to capture a few portraits. Surprisingly, most were so accomodating and probably more curious about the Rollei in my hand as I was about the giant tunas. This fellow kindly posed for a photo as his boss glimpsed the Rollei and told him to get on with his work :)
