90/365 Leatherman
For anyone thats wondering its the Leatherman Skeletool CX thats used in this photo. A fine tool that I carry around a lot, its a pretty bare bone multitool (hence the name) but it does everything I really need without the weight. It really only has 3 tools the pilers, a knife, and a screwdriver, the carabiner/bottle opener isn't much of a tool.
These are the sorts of time where I kind of wish I had a tilit shift lens... So I get maximum depth of field without having to really change my angle of view to much, cause I shot this at F22 and the top right of the multitool is still out of focus, and I'm not to keen on focus stacking (by that I mean I never really tried it). Well not to big of a deal since its not to noticeable on small web sized photos... Though if you hit L and look at it a little larger then its a lot more noticeable.

Oh yea forgot to add this but, got back on the movie wagon, watched "The Right Stuff" today, kinda makes me sad that we no longer have the gusto we had back then when it came to space exploration.
