Well...... not really :) :) :) But it kinda looks like it could be....... This is actually a piece of ceramic material from a Cummins LNG engine's catalytic converter. The engine ran so hot it actually melted the ceramic element in the converter. This chunk is about 1.5 x 1.5 x 2 inches. I used a 90mm Tamron SP Adaptall macro lens, manual mode with my Nikon D7100, set the ISO at 400 and did 1 sec. exposures. I used f16 with the lens.


Very nice images!!!!
Did the engine survive? or was it set on a converter Regeneration cycle ?

That really is a beautiful piece of art work. What the heck if chimps and elephants can paint pictures, your Cummins can, too. I wonder what would happen if you put it into an art show and put a heft price tag on it? The pictures you took of it are super, too, and I'm not usually a B&W person unless they are pictures that aren't too busy as busy pictures really need color to define them, in my opinion.
