During this performance I heard more shocked gasps from the audience, than at any other show I've seen so far.
Can't imagine why... ;-)

used to photograph for Photo-Hall in 1962 with this Leica IIc and Elmar 50/3.5 lens.
Made more than 10.000 pictures in a season without mechanical trouble, despite sand, wind, salt water and rough handling.
Used for a Vintage Spectacles/Optical ATC swap. Available for trade. May 2014. By the way...this ATC is totally me!
Used a stack (48mm) of extension tubes with a 400mm telephoto lense (SSM70-400G) taken from about 4' away using a blind. The first crop from original was 4045 x 2697, with pretty amazing detail.

USE ELECTRICITY
The Clean, Low-Cost Power
for Every Home
GET IT DONE quickly, cleanly, with' minimum effort and cost. Use electricity!
For years men have been inventing and perfecting electrical devices. Today there is a practical, economical application of electrical power to nearly every division of household work.
Your central station is generating electric power in great quantity. To utilize it in your home is to save coal, time and money—lessen your need for servants.
Your Electrical Contractor, Dealer
or Architect can inform you
ELECTRICAL utility has advanced with seven league strides. It will pay you to keep in touch. Many electrical devices are announced in he advertising pages of the magazines and newspapers. They are safe : nd efficient. Give them your attention.
Have your electrical contractor or dealer show and demonstrate the actual equipment for you.
If you are rebuilding or remodelling, ask your architect to sketch for you the possibilities of electrical power — and give him a free hand in planning and executing. Remember that electricity is no longer a luxury — it is a wonderful, economical aid in the home. Efficiently utilized, it increases human capacity and raises the standard of living.
* * *
REMEMBER, also, that quality in every item of electrical equipment is essential to economy and satisfaction in operation.
Only materials and equipment made by the most highly perfected methods of scientific precision and skill can deliver continuously fullmeasure service.
Such a product is Habirshaw Wire. A standard of the electrical industry from the very beginning of its development, Habirshaw wire is used by skilled and experienced contractors throughout the world.

Used for reconnaissance, the Blackbird can travel London/New York in under 2 hours, cruising at a speed of around Mach 3.5... at which point, the outer hull reaches a temperature of around 260ºC.
SR-71 Blackbird The SR-71 Blackbird is a legendary reconnaissance aircraft developed by Lockheed Martin for the United States Air Force. It is one of the fastest planes ever built, capable of flying at speeds exceeding Mach 3 (over 2,200 mph or 3,540 km/h) and at altitudes of over 85,000 feet (25,900 meters). The SR-71 was designed to gather intelligence through high-speed, high-altitude reconnaissance missions during the Cold War era. Its sleek, black design and advanced technology made it an iconic symbol of American aviation prowess.

Kodak Ektar 100 colour film (famous for its absence of graininess), then scanned and the images digitally processed.
This is a diptych of two negatives, which fit onto the same area as one negative of a 35 mm camera because the Pen-F is a half-format camera.
The image on the right shows the jaws and lower row of teeth (with replacement teeth ) of a Mako shark (Isurus Oxyrinchus).

Editor's note: Hello, Flickr friends! I'm trying to use Fridays to showcase stories about the amazing research aboard the International Space Station. This image is from a great post from the "A Lab Aloft" blog. It describes in detail how protein crystal growth in space can lead to human health benefits.
If you have a few minutes, check out the link above. It's worth your time! It also includes this snappy video that explains more about why protein crystal growth matters so much: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9p0czSsawVw
Caption: This image shows an artist concept of protein crystal growth in space.
Story excerpt:
We have many proteins in our body, but nobody knows just how many. Consider that the human genome project is more than 20,000 protein-coding genes, and many of these genes or portions of those genes combine with others to create new proteins. The human body could have anywhere from a half million to as many as two million proteins—we’re not sure. What we do know, is that these proteins control aspects of human health and understanding them is an important beginning step in developing and improving treatments for diseases and much more.
A protein crystal is a specific protein repeated over and over a hundred thousand times or more in a perfect lattice. Like a row of bricks on a wall, but in three dimensions. The more perfectly aligned that row of bricks or the protein in the crystal, the more we can learn of its nature. Today there are more than 50,000 proteins that have been crystallized and the structures of the three-dimensional proteins comprising these crystals have been determined. Unfortunately many important proteins that we would like to know the three-dimensional structures for have either resisted crystallization or have yielded crystals of such inferior quality that their structures cannot be determined.
While we can grow high-resolution crystals both in space and on the ground, those grown in space are often more perfectly formed. That’s the main advantage and reason we’ve gone to space for these studies. In many cases where we could not see hydrogen crystals on the ground, we then flew that protein crystal in space and let them grow in microgravity. Because of the resulting improved order of the molecules laying down in the crystal lattice, we were able to actually see the hydrogen atoms. Usually to see the hydrogen atoms, you are talking about getting down to a resolution of one angstrom, which is not easy to do—it would take 10 million angstroms to equal one millimeter!
The International Space Station provides a unique environment where we can improve the quality of protein crystals. During the days of protein crystallization studies on the space shuttle, one of the most frustrating aspects of the microgravity experiments was the length of time it took to produce a usable crystal. This is actually part of why space-developed crystals are better—they grow much more slowly. On the shuttle you only had 10-12 days for a study, but aboard the space station you have as long as you need.

I saw this fire hydrant next to a factory while on an early morning walk with a friend. I'm not sure if the paint is peeling from lack of use or over-use.
Used Elizabeth Hartman's pattern from
International Quilt Festival Quilt Scene magazine 2011. So fun to make! My first time with applique[[. Made as a birthday gift. Finished January 2011.

A Montessori Poem .... Today I did my math and language, practical life too, I used my eyes, my ears and hands, my senses the whole day through. I added and subtracted, learned patience all the day I used tweezers, blocks, and puzzles, And worked with the scrubbing tray. I learned how to mix colors, And learned how to weigh. So mom and dad, please don’t say, “DID YOU BRING ANY PAPERS HOME TODAY?” You see, I’m sharing as I play, Learning self-control throughout the day, I’m learning to listen and speak clearly when I talk, To wait my turn and when inside to walk, To put my words into phrases, To balance along the “Red Rod” maze, To find my name and write it down, I do it with a smile, not a frown. So mom and dad, please don’t say, “WHY DON’T YOU HAVE ANY PAPERS TODAY?” I learned about a snail, I learned about a worm, I learned about flags and maps, And how to take a turn, I helped a friend when he was stuck, I learned that water runs off a duck. I looked at words from left to right, Agreed to differ, not to fight. Today I sang the continent song, I learned the difference between right and wrong, So mom and dad, please don’t say, “DID YOU ONLY PLAY TODAY?” Because yes, I played the whole day through, I worked to learn the things I do, Encounter a problem, find the clue and work it out for myself, I do. My teachers set the scene and stand near-by, They want me to succeed and teach me how to try. They pose the questions, and help me to think, They keep me afloat and would never let me sink. So don’t get discouraged and frustrate me, I try my best and I’m learning each day. So mom and dad, please don’t say, “HAVEN’T YOU DONE ANY WORK TODAY?” -Author Unknown-
