You never knew there was a statue of Abe at the Lincoln Memorial?
Or didn't know he was depicted on the penny?
really?
are you also curious about the others in the thread that didn't know either? do you think i shot a close-up of a penny to start a thread about my not knowing about the statue at the actual memorial? what do you think i would think would be at the abe lincoln memorial?

Holy fuck...take a Midol.
It was just an honest question.
Skip it - I don't really give a fuck what you had no idea about.

umm, bra, i post a fun pic for fun and even state that i never looked close enough and you question whether or not if i know there's a statue of abraham lincoln in the fucking abraham lincoln memorial and you tell me to take a midol?

riiiiiiiiiiight.
Oh, I see. When you said "had no idea" - you meant you had no idea someone would ask what you had no idea of.
i was aware that there is a statue there, i did see the movie national treasure.
My question wasn't intended as an insult to whether you knew there was a statue there or not. I don't assume everyone knows there is. It was an honest question asking what you "had no idea" about.
That's all. I liked the macro - never knew it showed the statue on the penny myself.

Good we cleared that up.
no, communication can be both words and pictures, i stated i had no idea, then my next communication was the extreme close-up picture showing an object most cannot see without magnification, then stated i never looked close enough, taken together, as most have taken it in this thread, is that the statue is represented on the penny.

gotcha, i see, you're the one who posts those cool photos of abandoned structures right?
i always enjoy those.
this pic certainly is not up to that level but it did take effort on my part, these macro shots have a learning curve for me.
good to know, just don't include any comments about burning down the whitehouse!
That's ancient history.
Funny story (to me anyway) about a US penny I found up here in Kanuckistan a couple years ago in a McDonalds parking lot. I was taking my son there for lunch, an letting him out of the car, I looked down and saw a weird looking penny. It was an indian head US penny. I mean what are the odds of that?
Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that

They should also move to the metric system like the rest of the world.
dude, we missed our chance on the metric system, jimmy carter had it all mapped out, i was in grade school at that time and had to learn it, then boom, gone, keeping standard system, it messed with my head.
Yep, I've been into the abandonment photography for a long while. Thx for noticing.
Macro is something I want to get into more. Need to get myself a more suitable lens, though.
it's fun sorting out the equipment for close-up.
the lens: getting a longer focal length is good because you can move back a bit and still get 1:1, and not have the lens get in the way of your lighting, but the dof will be tiny at all stops.
on the other hand, a shorter focal length means having to get super close to the subject to get 1:1, then your lens gets in the way of your lights but you get more dof range.
Don't know about the new fives, but the old style, if the bill was new, you can make out the names of the states going around the upper areas. Gotta have good eyes or a good lens.
Looks like a big dude taking a hovering deuce with a turtle looking up at him..

i was in accelerated learning, i tested out of the 3rd - 8th grades and they put me directly in the 9th grade so i didn't get to learn the crucial factoid that there is a tiny embossed abe lincoln on the back of a penny.
