These are small jelly fish that have eight rows of cilia that glow rainbow colors in the dark. I've tried photographing these before but they glow when they move through the water; so it is hard to get a clear photo. I managed to catch this just as they slowed down.
Murex pecten The Venus Comb Shell
I always imagined that this shell would move with the larger end in the foreground being the front, however I saw a video of the living sea snail gliding beneath this shell , with the narrow end being the front. Therefore the shell is definitely the animal's defence against predators, and after accidentally standing on one of these shells in bare feet, can tell you the spines are needle sharp and incredibly strong. I was able to pull the shell out of the bottom of my foot and not a spine had broken. So, as well as being very decorative, the shell serves it's purpose well.

Usei uma camada de preto-Osório/Dote, uma do Milan/Ellen Gold que é vermelho metálico e uma do Felina.
Depois de várias esmaltações que não estavam me agradando então nem foto tirei, até que enfim uma mani que gostei! Ficou num tom um pouco mais rosado e um tico menos vermelho.
Some of you will perhaps recognise this as the 'secret' jetty in Dorset - a title I almost went with until I decided it doesn't really add visual context to the shot. I'd been trying unsuccessfully to discover it's location for some time; that is up until a fortnight ago when a good friend sent me a text saying he'd found out where it was and did I fancy a trip the following Saturday?
Unfortunately I couldn't make it then, but I have to guiltily confess I did take great joy in texting him back a couple of days before the Saturday with the message 'Guess what I'm stood on..?'
We've been mates for 30 years, I'll stand him a pint too...

Work in progress: preparing mohair locks for wigs.
1. Dividing mohair in locks & grading by length.
2. Combing underhair out.
3. Combed locks.
4. Mohair locks in a weft ready for dyeing.
I prefer to buy raw hair & work on it by my own, because this way I completely control the process and the quality of ready locks.
I don't use wefts in wigs (sewing of 'roots' is too thick and coarse), I make them only for comfortable dyeing, and cut the locks off during wig making.
40145 'East Lancashire Railway' passes Combs with a Birmingham International to Buxton railtour on the 15th September 2007.
Although the loco looks good in this livery, to stir my memory, a 40 would need to be in battered BR blue (or BR green with 40122 and 40106) as that is how I remember them. However, the noise this thing was making as it passed me at little more than walking pace on full power certainly did stir the memories, and nearly caused a wet patch if I'm honest!
LEGO Vignette of hilarious scene from Space Balls. This was built for the ILUGNY New York Comic Con display 2011. We were asked to display there by LEGO and this scene was part of our Death Star trench run. We had small window cut outs and swapped out 6 scenes for 3-4 windows throughout the weekend. This was very well received and brought a smile or laugh to many faces.
I never took a proper phot of this so here it is. Now comb the desert!
