V for VAREX, a model put out by Exacta. My eyes start watering just looking at that flash.

Z for ZEUS who helpfully showed himself several times on the most recent trip so we could get back to the frenzied part of the alphabet.

B-Blooming blossoms- Can't remember the name of this flower, but always associate it with Christmas, when they bloom in profusion.

D-Dragonfly

E for ENGINE of the type that would drive numerous machines in a factory, with the characteristic massive flywheel that is also the PTO for a belt. The bell-like structure with two balls at upper left is probably a speed governor, although of a design unfamiliar to me.

F-Fireworks

G for GOLD ADORNMENTS. Scythian jewelry, about 450BCE, probably sewn onto a garment of a "prince" and interred with him (conditions of original discovery unknown - not excavated by professionals). From a hoard found in Russia. The feature I find striking is the precision and uniformity of the chain links.
