The last in the series of 4. I liked the Routemaster there for size comparison, buses have grown over the years
Anyone for real Majong? Not the on- line matching pairs game some of us play when we're really bored. This is the Chinese version originated in the Quing Dynasty (1636 - 1912). A modern day comparison to this intricate game is Canasta.
Have a great Monday everyone.

View of Forum Romanum with the temple of Saturn and the temple of Vespasian and Titus.
The cult of the god Saturn in Rome is quite old - the temple remains are in comparison quite new (as an ancient Roman temple goes). The first temple in this spot was built around 497 B.C. These columns on the other hand dates to a temple building from 360-380 A.D. when the previous building had been destroyed by a fire. Much of this temple is built with parts from older buildings - but the columns are made in the style of late Antiquity, in white Thasian marble.
The two columns (it's actually three, but the third one is hidden from view) with a bit frieze remaining is the temple of emperor Vespasian and his son Titus. It was an expression of the Roman imperial cult - the temple was started by Titus after the death of his father, and then after Titus' death it was continued by his brother Domitian and finished some time around 87 A.D.
The outer facades of the Taj Mahls and the tombs inside are decorated with reliefs and, above all, with multi-coloured marble inlays of the greatest fineness and with various semi-precious stones. There are colorful floral motifs, but also inscriptions with passages from the Koran in black marble on a white background
DE:
Die Außenfassaden des Taj Mahlsund auch die Grabmäler im Inneren sind mit Reliefs und vor allem mit vielfarbigen Marmor Einlegearbeiten von größter Feinheit und mit verschiedenen Halbedelsteinen verziert. Dabei finden sich bunte florale Motive, aber auch Inschriften mit Passagen aus dem Koran in schwarzem Marmor auf weißem Grund
I took this photo in 1987 with my classic analogue Nikon FE camera, and Nikkor lens 24mm, f2.8 and 35mm Kodachrome slide film. Later I digitalised the til material, using a Nikon Coolscan LS 40ED film scanner the edited in Photoshop Lr

Here we have the transom of Kaiwo Maku, one of the largest tall ships in the world (361' in length) and passing her on her starboard side is a 18-20' pleasure craft.
Verdict....... absolutely no comparison :-)
Compare this with the bald eagle and mocking bird shot. The bald eagle is perched near the front top of the tower. Another is perched about half way down. No one walking the path I was on saw them unless I pointed them out! I love my long lens! I also love my iPhone for getting shots like this one.
Leica M Mono, Leitz Elmar 4/135 at F8. Of course, this comparison to the previous image is not straightforward. It is not just a different and much more expensive camera, the lens has a different focal range and is really old (over 60 years). But I do not think that the previous image, done with a "budget combo", is in any way inferior to this one. In fact, when it comes to judging an image as "interesting" or "artistic" I don't think that the question of budget or not plays a role at all.
The Lower Christine Falls (seen in comments) gets most of the attention. The Upper Falls is more challenging to shoot, plus one must stand on the busy Christine Falls bridge while capturing this 32' beauty.
For comparison, the Lower Falls shown below drops 37'.
Thanks for your visit! Always appreciated.

Over many years I have tried to find the quirkiness out in our streets and trust these images fit the description.
This is a tribute to Andy Warhol, not sure though how he would have interpreted it. Positively, I hope.

Kimmeridge bay Dorset on the stunning Jurassic coast. Not a good sunset on this particular day but when the sun popped out for a minute the light highlighted Hen Cliff with the Clavell Tower or Kimmeridge Tower beautifully. The pile of stones found in this position on arrival was an added bonus, maybe put there in homage to the tower? ( at least that's what i'd like to think!)

Bevor Eisenbahn und Autos existierten, waren die wichtigsten Handelswege schiffbare Flüsse so wie der Rhein. Hier im Gemälde ein Vergleich von früher und heute.
Before railway and cars existed, the most important trade routes were navigable rivers like the Rhine. Here in the painting a comparison of past and present.
Das Gemälde zeigt den Blick unter die Fahrbahn mit den beiden stützenden Säulen und der integrierten Malpalette der 5 verwendeten Farben, aus denen das Bild selbst entstanden ist.
The painting shows the view under the roadway with the two supporting columns and the integrated painting palette of the 5 colors used, from which the picture itself was created.
Yup. Pretty cool. PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVE!

Snow and Ross Geese side by side for comparison. I've been trying to get a shot like this for years.
I made plans to photograph the November 8, 2022 lunar eclipse over some petroglyphs in Bishop, California. It made sense to photograph something timeless over something ancient. But the weather forecast turned terrible, and a storm was forecast to cover most of California. The trip's goal morphed and became "let's photograph snow at the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest." The Bristlecones are the oldest trees on Earth, with some of them reaching 5000 years old.
As Matthew Saville and I drove from Los Angeles north toward the Sierra mountains, we noticed the storm was predicted to hit the Bristlecone Pine Forest shortly before sunrise. The eclipse might be possible after all!
We set up cameras, expected the worst, and went to bed. I awakened in the twilight before sunrise and a few inches of snow had fallen. I woke up Matt and we ran to collect the cameras, which had been partially buried. As we reviewed the photos in the blustery, well-below-freezing predawn air, we were amazed to see that the storm clouds blew in exactly as the eclipse ended. We had managed to photograph it! We captured the timeless over the ancient after all.
This photo is a stack of about 300 30-second exposures on a Sony A7R3 and a Sigma 20mm f/1.4. I also did a single long exposure, and might post that as well for comparison. Update: here.
Well here is the comparison of the photo of RL and my new pose. Hope you like! I tried to do my best. Adriana, thank you for your patience and cooperation... loviu <3
Here you can see the colouring and bill differences between an immature male and an older male Surf Scoter.
Having been a big fan of Deep Dream Generator, I keep trying the text generator, but haven't gotten any spectacular creations, plus it takes so long. So today I used the exact same prompts on both Wombo and DDG. The Wombo style was VFX. No post enhancement. I think Wombo won this word challenge.
White tailed eagle in company off some hooded crows. Now you can see the difference in size,birdwise. But also that the crows are not scared of this mighty eagle who I thought was king :-) and in this picture you can see his white tail..
I thought it would be fun to show the direct comparison between two similar setups!

I took a shot of this striped lynx (Oxyopes salticus) mama the other day using my Vivitar (Komine) 90mm f2.8 1:1 Macro. Today, I found the same gorgeous girl still guarding her egg clutch, so I snapped a remarkably similar shot using my Phoenix (Cosina) 100mm f3.5 1:2 Macro paired with a 2x Macro Focusing Teleconverter.
Right away, you can see the difference in color reproduction. The word I keep finding is "flat". The depth of the greens, and the subtle undertones of the browns and darker shades are just missing! This Phoenix lens is a really stellar lens, but can't compare frame-for-frame with the Komine 90mm. It's also worth noting the overall level of clarity!
When you zoom in, you can start to see the difference in resolving power pretty clearly. The Phoenix does a darn good job for a stack of glass in a plastic shell, but the shot captured using my Komine a few days back is much sharper on individual details. Both shots are captured at 1:1, but magnification rate does not always mean the image is worth magnifying!
Of course, both of these lens setups are literally decades behind the times and rendered fully obsolete by modern mirrorless cameras, insane 15 frames per second burst modes, and focus peaking, but it's fun to show the budget side of the hobby! You can 100% capture worthwhile images without modern gear and guided trips, you just have to learn your equipment!
This comparison was brought to you at 1:1 by my plastic fantastic Phoenix (Cosina) 100mm f3.5 Macro, attached to a Vivitar 2x Macro Focusing Teleconverter. This photo is uncropped. This lovely little lady is around 6-7mm long!
Since I had so many pink girls here right now I figured it would be cool to take some comparison pics.
I plan few heads from few companies and plan to match with diferent bodies.
I have found, that looking at pages each time I think of some match, is very time-consuming.
So I have chosen my fav doll companies and made this pic.
Pictures are not in scale, so some of bodies are biger than others, it was mostly done for a shapes, propotions, hips, chests etc.
But all bodies are over 61 cm.
