More low tech stuff

Had to edit out all the sensor dust specks again. Sigh.

Love it! It was always a challenge to see how long we could make the pencil shaving...this one looks pretty long.

@thewatersphotos I prefer a burr technology for grinding coffee beans, but I prefer the "shaver" for sharpening pencils! I'd conjecture that it might be a sign of the manufacturing quality of the sharpener if the shaving is unbroken!

That point is so sharp it would have to be a very hard lead to stand up to being used!

[Simply Amanda]

Sharp focus!!

[Rachel]

That is one sharp pencil. Great shot.

Stunning close-up! I have sensor specks, too...even after paying for a cleaning...ugh.
