Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. ~ Helen Keller.

From our series 'Série Noire'.
Two shadowy characters move silently through deserted neon-lit streets. It's the witching hour. Well may you ask: what is going on? Who are they and where are they going? Is it a painting? Is it a dream? Is it a nightmare? Will you wake up screaming?
I am afraid we shall never know. The scriptwriter ran off with Julia. We are as surprised as you. Today there will be no story.

Macro Mondays
Theme: Celebration
Size: Less than 3x3 inches
The subject is the Chinese character meaning double happiness and the head of an imperial dragon on the side of a small porcelain tea cup. The other side of the tea cup has the same character and a phoenix.
The dragon symbolises the groom/ male and the phoenix the bridegroom/ female.
This small tea cup belong to a set used for the ' traditional tea ceremony' during our wedding celebration. The same set was also called to service during our childrens' wedding.
There are 2 light sources. An overhead incandescent table lamp at 12 o'clock and a LED torchlight at 5 o'clock trained on the eyes of the dragon.
Best viewed on full screen.

Over fertilized plants may be beautiful but are otherwise useless, like people whose energies are devoted so completely to their appearance that there is no other development.

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Glasgow is full of colourful characters - this guy certainly takes on the role to the letter. Enjoy!
Well this was taken last week as a possible for SSC chairs /seats , but it did not get chosen . However , I took it so here it is .
The throne is a carved seat out of a bit of tree trunk and been in the garden now for quite a few years .
So it is not in the woods but just the pathway through the garden and it seems a popular place for the garden residents to gather !!
Characters
stand alone or in union,
opposed to coalition
and prepared for conflict,
or they sing
of longing for
a certain harmony

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
Barns and silos years ago were tools used to build character. Chores and care for animals was not a choice but a duty and was expected from nearly every farm youngster. Generations of farm-raised youth went on to build our country, win our wars and fly to the moon. I realize this is not the only way to build character but somehow pounding away on the keys of a phone or tablet does not seem to hold the same gravitas for today's youth.
Senatress Beatrice Bennet
Age: 34
Occupation: Senator in the court of Valhalla
Bio: Senatress Bennet hails from a wealthy and spoiled background. She comes from a long line of scheming politicians. At age 31, she officially become Senatress of a quadrant of Valhalla, and has fiercely held the position ever since. She is quite use to using her family's money to buy her way into things; as her motto goes: "anything and anyone has a price."
Personality traits: She's one lady that hates to lose, and will stop at nothing to ensure she gets what she wants. Her sense of virtue is severely twisted to the point where black is white and up is down. Her nature is one of superiority and deceptiveness. When it comes to the public, she's a total suck up. However, to her, lowly human beings are nothing more than mere play toys. It isn't unusual to see her participating in something "unethical" by public standard.
**There's 2 more character profiles I need to complete, so this isn't it...yet.
Character is how you treat those who can do nothing for you

Great character, just sitting outside a coffee house, not sure why he was dressed up, just because he could maybe.
Watch out this one's a killah. (in a good way xD)
Name: Ashton
Age: 16
Bio: Ashton loves skateboarding and chillin with his friends. He's sadly stuck in an arranged marriage with Jada but they don't love eachother like marriages should be. He's been a rebel his whole life and isn't about to let this go down

This marvellous little moth hides in plain sight by imitating a bird dropping . Close inspection reveals the exquisite detail that completes its wonderful disguise.

The wedding reception was held at a gazebo not too far from the chapel. It was a lovely spot with lots of trees and flowers.

This photo is part of the final assignment "Character Portrait" in my "Lighting Techniques" photography course. The portrait should reflect a lot of "character". I chose keylight on the left and fill light on the front. The hair is also slightly lightened at the back on the left. The depth of field is very limited, with some blur already present at the back of the hair.
What do you think of this photo?
Thanks in advance for your help, and greetings from Belgium, Stefan
