We got ourselves a digital camera recently and I spent the last week or so figuring out all the functions and taking a ton of picture.
This is an OD3, also known as a VR150, as you can probably guess it's a 150V voltage reference tube. It's what they used before we had zener diodes.
Slightly different view, notice the nice glow.
Top view.
This is a 27, one of the earliest indirectly heated triodes from the 1930's. If the shape of the glass looks familiar, it's because you might have seen it before as a lightbulb. The glass envelopes for many early tubes were actually made by lightbulb factories.
Another view of the 27.

Proving that yes, women can indeed use digital cameras and other high-tech gadgets. I took this one using the macro and long exposure modes on our camera.

I'm not sure why people choose 'To Love is to Bury' as their wedding song...It's about a murder-suicide
