Binocularity

Would it not be grand to drop a coin into a machine
 and look into our futures with the power of binocular vision... 
to peer deeply into the vistas of the coming year?

    I love this strange small chap of metal who seems to consider at us as the big round eyes. Beautiful light and colors

    Spectacular ligth! As for the future, NO. I don't want to know it. I want to be happy when good things are happening to me, bad things will come anyhow...

    It's impressive your ability to turn simple things into great photos.
    Here is another example.

    Żeby to się dało zrobić, to bym tam wrzuciła nie jedną monetę. Zdjęcie w promieniach słońca jest śliczne. Pozdrawiam.
    To this I could do, I'd put in there is not a single coin. Photo of the sun is beautiful. Yours.

    I just love this shot, perfect for the twilight of the year - and hopefully binoculars that give an indication of the year ahead (now there's a good basis for a SciFi Novel)

    spectacular! the backlight and the tonality are magnificent!
    but would you really like to have a peek at the future? i don't think i would! i rather like to have the chance to look back once in a while ... ;-)

    Beautiful shot Doug--I love these binoculars. They're so cooly anthropomorphic.

    I really love how you composed this picture: nice play with the sunset light and the long shadows.
    Have a nice day.
