un peu encrasté, mais surtout poignant
on sent les dents s'emboîter les unes dans les autres

Yes a little rough looking but it still works.
Many thanks for the comment and best wishes for the rest of your day

Das schaut richtig klasse aus mit dieser Darstellung lieber James,sehr schön hast du diesen Look gewählt für deine feine Aufnahme :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thank you Güni I added a grunge effect to this, I added sawdust and dust to make it look worst than it is

Looks a little worn out and in need of a coast of WD40 but it works for me. Why do I think that 'still-life' meant something that is alive or has been alive? Great job, whatever.

Cheers. Herb

lol, it still has life Herb and still works, I use it upon occasions it is just the addition of debris and a grunge effect that makes it look worst than it is.

Many thanks for the comment and all the best

A very apt title James............and when you think about it, this is a very clever, yet relatively simple piece of kit.

As has been noted it looks like it's had a fair bit of use, but the cogs all seem to be in good nick, and that's what counts. I love the detail you've captured and black and white is perfect for the subject matter. A super shot James!

Many thanks Keith, I still use this upon occasions it is just the addition of debris and a grunge effect that makes it look worst than it is. It works better than your disassembled Nokia!!!
As ever I appreciate the comment
