Oil Can Project – OCP12

Wow! It has been a little over two months since my last post for my Oil Can Project. That is too long of a delay! What have I been doing? Well, whatever it was, I definitely need to get back on this project. Although, I suppose I need to find more display space as my current shelf is getting a little full.

This latest little gem is from a good friend of mine. We worked together for a couple of years before I jumped ship a few weeks back. I missed seeing him before I left on my last day and we have been trying to get together to catch up. Funny how it appears you have a lot of free time but when you need to coordinate a few hours to meet up, the hours never align.

Well, after listening to me drone on about this project he must have decided to contribute to my habit rather than keep suggesting I attend those meetings… flea market anonymous. I was never going to go to a meeting, I heard they didn’t have cake…

Thanks Bob! This one is a great addition to my collection. I was able to find this same model on the “Plews & Edelmann” website. I was hoping for a cool name but this is how it is listed: “Oiler, Pistol, 6oz., 6″ Rigid, Base Holder”. Amazingly, it still looks exactly like this one, but without any of the character of this little guy. BTW – We still need to get together to catch up!

WDW in B&W – WBW19
Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World

As soon as you enter the Magic Kingdom, you find yourself at the turn of the twentieth century on Main Street U.S.A. One of my favorite first stops is the train station. From the second floor I can see down Main Street to the castle. It is also a great people watching location. I like to explore the station itself as I can always find interesting details to photograph. I really like the curved stairs leading up to the second floor. I know I have photographed this view before but I do not think I have processed it. It felt right to convert this one to B&W…

The best way to spend my lunch hour was exploring Old Erie Canal Park in DeWitt with my macro lens on the camera. Typically, I go to the park for the landscape pictures, but today I was looking for the small details. Off the normal path and into the woods along Butternut Creek I found an interesting section of vine. I liked how the very end wrapped around itself…
