WORLDWIDE PHOTO WEEK: Part 863 - Contraption

Every week we select a new theme, and then go out and shoot that theme. This week the theme is Contraption. As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.

See if you can find a Contraption to show us..

Here are the rules:
1. Because this activity is supposed to encourage us to get out and shoot, please don't post old shots from your archives.

2. Shots need to be taken between Tuesday, after the new theme is posted and the following Monday by sunset (Whenever that is for you).
3. Snapshots and art are equally welcome -- just get out & shoot, and then share!
4. Post your shots at any time during the week.
5. Post a maximum of two shots if you're uploading them to POTN (i.e., attaching them). You can post more than two if you're linking to shots that are not hosted by POTN (i.e. embedding them) but keep within POTN rules.
As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.
An index to previous weeks can be found here: POTN WORLDWIDE PHOTO WEEK INDEX

That's it!
Have fun!

I like the photo as a study of something, but it might as well be abstract for me. What is this "common" thing?

Its a 1:1 macro of a contraption known as a cheese grater, common in many kitchens

Well, I dropped out of the Glass one - my mind was fixated on pictures of the lens collection.... and Contraptions - well - some excellent choices so far! My humble submission - a new for me contraption. It is in my dining room because:
1. it has just arrived and needed assembling
2. it is really raining heavily outside
3. there is no room in the garage
4. it has a rain cover arriving on Monday...

It was shot on the 5D3 because, that way, I don't need to resize it for this forum. Picture is straight from the camera

a simple example of creating digital contraptions: photoshop plugins

(this is a screenshot. Should I use my camera to take a photo of the screen to conform to forum rules?)

captured by a digital device, well within the rules in my book!
