LOGIC CARDS MACROS || Anecdotes and technical facts. || ENG-ESP || (24 PICS)

Back in the mid-1980s and I was studying the intermediate semesters of Systems Technology when I was just a young boy of 18 years old... There was a day in the middle of electronics practice when I commented aloud that printed circuit boards looked like small futuristic cities when viewed through the magnifying glass.

Eran mediados de los años 80 y yo estudiaba los semestres intermedios de Tecnología en Sistemas siendo apenas un jovenzuelo con 18 años recién cumplidos... Hubo un día en plena práctica de electrónica cuando comenté en voz alta qué las tarjetas de circuitos impresos parecían pequeñas ciudades futuristas al verlas a través de la lente de aumento.

That day all my classmates (all a few years older than me) were silent when they heard my exclamation and after few seconds they burst out laughing with delight and one or the other even went so far as to bully me by saying that I was a snot-nosed brat with a silly mind.

Ese día todos mis compañeros de clase (todos algunos años mayores que yo) se quedaron en silencio al escuchar mi exclamación y después de un par de segundos soltaron carcajadas a placer y uno que otro incluso llegó a hacerme algo de bullying diciendo que yo era un mocoso con la mente un poco tonta.

Obviously, I was much younger than them, but I was born and raised in a tough town (the same one where I still live) and despite my young age my answers were sharp enough to make the taunts stop almost immediately... So I immediately told them all to go to hell without being too restrained in my words, despite the teacher's earnest plea for calm.

Obviamente, yo era mucho más joven que ellos, pero nací y crecí en un pueblo difícil (el mismo en donde sigo viviendo) y a pesar de mi corta edad mi respuestas eran lo suficientemente tajantes para hacer que las burlas cesaran casi de inmediato... Así que de inmediato les mandé a todos al demonio sin comedir demasiado mis palabras, a pesar de la encarecida intervención del profesor pidiendo calma.

It was one of many similar events, but I was never really affected by such things, but today it came to mind just as I was rummaging through some old boxes in my junk storage and came across several damaged logic cards from damaged personal computers and laptops.

Fue uno de muchos eventos similares, pero en realidad nunca me afectaban demasiado estas cosas, pero hoy se me vino a la memoria justo cuando estaba hurgando en algunas cajas viejas de mi depósito de trastes en desuso y me topé con varias tarjetas lógicas pertenecientes a computadoras personales y portátiles dañadas.

And gee, it occurred to me to photograph some of those old cards with my camera so I could observe them as I dreamed of doing more than three decades ago!...

¡Y caray, se me ocurrió fotografiar algunas de esas viejas tarjetas con mi cámara para poder observarlas como soñaba hacerlo hace más de tres décadas atrás!...

These are then the pictures I took of several of those cards... These photos were taken with my Nikon D7000 camera and my Tokina 100mm Macro lens.

Estas son entonces las fotos que hice a varias de esas tarjetas... Estas fotos fueron realizadas con mi cámara Nikon D7000 y mi lente Macro Tokina 100mm.

As I tend to do almost every time I want to capture a series of images in a fixed location, I first do some tests until I get one or two "winning combinations of parameters" to make them avoiding too many changes along the session. This time I used ISO 640, Flash -1.3, Shutter speed 1/320s and lens aperture at F/10. This was enough to get sufficiently exposed photos and to have room for manoeuvre later when processing the RAW.

Como suelo hacer casi siempre que deseo capturar series de imágenes en una locación fija, primero hago algunas pruebas hasta conseguir una o dos "combinaciones de parámetros ganadoras" para hacerlas evitando demasiados cambios a lo largo de la sesión. Esta vez usé ISO 640, Flash -1.3, Velocidad de obturación 1/320s y apertura del lente en F/10. Esto fue suficiente para lograr fotos lo suficientemente expuestas y tener margen de maniobra posterior a la hora de hacer el procesado de los RAW.

The RAWs, by the way, were processed with Adobe Camera RAW where I adjusted light, contrast, clarity and sharpness. Temperature balances and other minor adjustments were done with Photoscape CS6, watermarks, horizon balances, size changes and rotations and minor cropping were done with PhotoScape 3.6.1.

Los RAW por cierto, los procesé con Adobe Camera RAW en donde ajusté luz, contraste, claridad y nitidez. Los balances de temperatura y otros ajustes menores los hice con Photoscape CS6, las marcas de agua, balances de horizonte, cambios de tamaños y rotaciones y recortes menores los hice con PhotoScape 3.6.1.

This is my trusty old Nikon D7000 with her "occasional boyfriend" Tokina 100mm.... We've been together for over a decade now and it looks like we can go on for quite a while longer.

Esta es mi vieja y fiel Nikon D7000 con su "novio ocasional" Tokina 100mm... Hemos estado juntos por más de una década y parece que podremos seguir bastante tiempo más.

As an old computer repair / assembler guy i also have that kind of old stuff lying arround , including hard drives and floppy drives .

🤣 last week i started to do some shots with 2.5 magnification but the narrow depth of field kind of spoils it .

Thanks for commenting... Those old parts are interesting to photograph ;-) ... That photo is amazing for the magnification ratio it has... Certainly the depth of field seems to be a bit extreme.
