Description
These are definately the hands of a hard working man. He is holding some sort of meter. Not sure what kind of meter, so I'm not going to attempt to tell you what it is. I might be wrong...

Kym, I believe the instrument in the photo is a 1950's Geiger Counter used for locating uranium deposits. Many people bought these to prospect for the uranium deposit that would make them rich. Only a few people actually got rich from these instruments. Simular devices are still in use today for detecting all kinds of radiation.

Ralph, Thanks so much for your information about the Geiger Counter. I was just talking about those items the other day. I was telling her that friends of my parents had them. She said " You mean Metal Detectors, and I said no.." Geiger Counter" for Uranium... she thought I was crazy!! Then here you go and tell me that THIS ITEM is a Geiger Counter!! So very interesting, timely, and topical to my recent conversations! I cant' wait to tell her this news.. Thanks for your comments and taking the time to leave me this fine message Ralph!

Shots like this make me think of my father. I only wish that I'd been into photography while he was still alive.
Kym Backland replied:
Odd, Oooh, that made me feel rather sad, when you said that about your father. I'm sorry he isn't alive. Thanks for sharing your very personal thoughts. I always have a had a vibe you are very thoughtul and an insightful man. Thanks for your sharing your comments with me!
