Happy Thirsty Thursday! :))

It's been in the news: "This is the first big partial eclipse to happen in the UK since 1999, and the next one isn't until August 2026, so this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity." - So all gear set up and waiting - hoping for a glimpse of that "once-in-a-generation" event...

BUT the weather didn't play by the rules where I live: Muddy skiess all morning... No sun to be seen, let alone the moon trying to cover it up...

Still, with all the gear in place, when the clouds went I decided to do a shot of the sun (background image - HDR'ed) and "post-processed" my moon in with Photoshop afterwards.

Ha: If you cannot rely on UK clear skies, create your own eclipse! ;-)

"Macro Mondays" - theme "Circles"

"Fidget Spinner" in motion

Taken for the #MacroMondays theme #Circles.

I have a powerful magnet base which is how I got the washers to stand up. Also the magnet made it easy to pick them all up when I spilled them all over the place. HMM!

47:52 Paper Abstracts

For this theme, I had to make the props as well as shoot them:) These paper baubles took a long time - they each started out with three long narrow strips of paper. After a lot of measuring, folding and gluing, I finished four and that was as far as I was going to go. I figure they will work well next month as Christmas decorations too :)

(Valencia)

The Hurlers stone circles are a group of 3 stone circles on Bodmin `Moor, Cornwall.

The name "Hurlers" derives from a legend, in which men were playing Cornish hurling on a Sunday and were magically transformed into stones as punishment.
