135 - Ice, Ice Baby!

From 365 Project

No it's not diamonds, it's really ice, you know the cold stuff. We were visiting a Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian home recently and they had an 1940's refrigerator with the old aluminum style ice trays. The docent told us kids have no concept of making ice in ice trays. One even asked what the recipe for ice was. So the ice machines have it. Canon G10, 1/60 sec at f/6.3, ISO 400, contrast highly exaggerated.

134 - Crystal Shell

From 365 Project

This is a closeup of a hanging crystal shell I saw in a card shop. Regular follows of the blog recognize that I like glass and reflections and the way they play with the light. Canon G10, 1/500 sec at f/2.8, ISO 800 in macro mode.

133 - Silicon

From 365 Project

This is a silicon wafer containing about 750 Intel 386 processors. Even though it is over 15 years old, I still marvel at the hundreds of processors each with their millions of microscopic transistors. Here's a link to a super closeup photo of a single processor from this wafer. Canon G10, 1/20 sec at f/4.5, ISO 400.

132 - Buoy Boneyard

Where do old buoys go to die - the buoy boneyard. These are a few of a row of 15 old navigation buoys forming a fence along the 23rd Street side of the L. Chenman scrap metal yard in Norfolk Virginia. Canon G10, 1/400 sec at f/8.0, ISO 100, 16mm equivalent focal length.

131 - Bless This Door

From 365 Project

This ain't no Starbucks! The shipping and receiving door at the Norfolk Coffee & Tea Company at 212 E 18th Street in Norfolk Virginia, a local landmark. The family has been roasting and blending coffee in Norfolk Virginia since 1918 and at this location since 1938. No venti soy double latte' served here, no website either, just great freshly roasted coffee for your coffee maker. See if you can find the "Bless This Door" sign. Canon G10, 1/200 at f/3.5, ISO 200, 28mm equivalent focal length.

130 - Natural

From 365 Project

With two die in play, seven is the most common combination. The probability that a seven comes come up is one out of six with fair dice. Thus the role is know as a "natural". Canon 40D, 1/60 sec at f/7.1, ISO 800, 50mm.

129 - Bald Eagle

This is one of the pair of American Bald Eagles that nest at Norfolk's Botanical Gardens. This year they hatched three eaglets. Canon 40D, 1/320 sec at f/16.0, ISO 400, 400mm focal length. More photos from today's shoot.
