gold fever

Vera's push for me this week was technology, and no doubt this is not the kind of thing she had in mind for me to portray! but i enjoyed coming across my neighbour's gold mining setup arrayed like this just before he returned with a trailer full of sand to process through the machine. The gold is superfine and not visible to the naked eye but patches of black sand hold it , amazing how the sea sorts her treasures.

a fascinating view on technology and one that makes a great picture.

Oh, gosh, it looks like he is going to vacuum the beach as well as the lake! Delightful and made me smile! Good focus!

That's great, I love your take on it.

A bit surreal. I like it

Well, luckily it's not up to the challenger to make the photo - whatever "I" had in mind is not that important. Awesome interpretation - and I agree, it's quite surreal, especially with this random bar stool! Love the colors and the "weird" line of the hoses. Looks a bit Dr.Suess-ish.

I like this insight. Is there a need for a coffee table for one's cuppa or beer?

[Annie D]

Oh this is a gem...like much technology I wouldn't know where to begin ha ha

[Shy Abel]

[Clare Gadsby]

[Mary Siegle]

Wow! Learned something new today. Thanks.

Intriguing set up and definitely technological. The bar stool is a nice touch.

Outdoor still life.. like the limited palette of the objects and the shape of the vegetation on the hills -
