So I got a chance to shoot at a local machine shop today, I had to get out of the house and clear my head a bit. It was a fun time of shooting. I only got to shoot for 45 minutes, but it was worth it. Here’s what I caught in my whirlwind of shooting…

Found these nuts and blots covered in grinding dust.

Found this on the side of the machine, pretty sure it was some type of gear box.

Main controls on one of the milling machines

Settings dial for the one of the machines.
It is amazing what you can find in places. I came away with some shots I really enjoy.

Hey Kathy,
Yeah, when I first got there I was trying to figure out what to shoot. But after about a minute all this cool stuff started to kind of looking interesting. I would highly suggest a macro Lens and a wide angle. That is all I shot with and it worked out nicley.
