#MacroMondays and #transportation

The bike valve is a part of the bike (tire)...

The bicycle is a means of transport to transport people or goods.

Another shot with the macro lense. This time a closeup of my bike tyre valve. Im reminded of the World Expo's at the turn of the last century. The rise of the machines.

Looking through metal scrolls on the end of bench armrests at the Botanic Gardens, at water supply valves and the fence.

A view through the mist of the valve house which is usually submerged under the waters of Ladybower Reservoir. The level of the water is once again rising, because less than two weeks ago this was above the water.

It can just be seen on the left near the waters edge in the photograph below.

Fill her up. I took the N2 cap off because I thought this would look better. I am thankful that the stem was at the top and not the bottom. I had to work on brakes this weekend and did not need anymore ground time.

Happy Macro Mondays

I replaced all the valves of my re-issue 1957 Vox amp. Not all of them are new though, the one on the left is actually dated 1958! They sound gorgeous...

The old "vintage" way of heating the house with radiators..

When the blooming is completed, begins the development of the fruits (capsules) which in 4-5 months ripen and reach a diameter of 3-6 cm, ovoid, of greenish or green-yellowish colour, with a sparse cover of spines less thin and spiny than those of the “cupule” of the true chestnuts; each one of these, dehiscent by three (rarely two) valves: they contain one to three (4) seeds known as “conkers”, glossy, of ferrugineous brown colour when ripe with big white or greyish hilum; oval-depressed shaped if isolated or semi-oval with one or two flattened sides if by two or three-four in the fruit.

Aesculus — Конский каштан, или жёлудник, или эскулус — растение семейства Сапиндовые (Sapindaceae)

Конский каштан обыкновенный (лат. Aésculus hippocástanum) — крупное лиственное дерево, самый известный в Украине вид рода Конский каштан.

Плоды — трёхстворчатая шиповатая коробочки, каждая содержат одно (реже - два или три) ореховидных семени (часто в обиходной речи называемые конскими каштанами или просто каштанами)’

Одна з якостей каштана – це зниження в'язкості крові. Тому плоди використовують при виготовленні препаратів від варикозу, геморою і т.д.

It was overcast and light were poor. I took this photo just before it started to rain.

The Volvo LV80/90-series was a medium size truck produced by Swedish automaker Volvo between 1935 and 1940.

Volvo presented a new medium-sized truck in 1935. The truck was available in two versions: the smaller LV80-series, with a side-valve engine and the larger LV90-series, with an overhead valve engine. On this generation of trucks the engine and cab was moved forward so that the engine was mounted above the front axle, not behind as before. This gives a better load distribution between the front and rear axle, resulting in reduced rear axle load.

After a year the older DC engine of the LV90-series was replaced by the bigger FC engine. Both engines were offered in Hesselman version.
