Halong Bay, Vietnam
We spend two weeks in Vietnam over Christmas. We did a day trip to Halong Bay. To learn more about our day and see more photos, check out my blog post One Day in Vietnam's Mysterious Appearing Halong Bay on my blog Batteredsuitcase.net

MacroMondays group has become a great inspirational boost. I am always left in awe of the wonderful contributions to this pool, hoping that just a spec of the talent from others might rub off on me allowing my petals to open more fully. Thanks for being such a great group! :D
Happy MacroMonday!

How do you create opulence?
- Use patterned or textured fabrics / surfaces
- Layer fabrics!
Layering is probably the most important thing you can do to create grandeur. When putting a set together, you always need at least three times the amount of props you think you need.
Here I have used various Indian saris as a backdrop behind a cream net canopy, layered with huge lace drapes, (and a few more for the covers on the bed) a Persian rug on the floor, fabrics hanging out of drawers in the chest & layered with strings of pearls & other jewellery, lots of leaves, flowers and pampas grass, which always contributes to a luxurious bohemian setting..
Attention to detail is so important, from the colour & shape of candles, to lace doilies, incense smoke, curtain tassels and the precise positioning of cushions..
Then you invite all your Queens over and realise you needed to build a bigger tent!

Sketch created at the eyepiece of a Helios 102mm refractor fitted with a Zoom eyepiece, on a Skywatcher AZGTi mount set up in my back garden in Oxfordshire.
I used black paper and Stabilo CarbOthello pastel pencils.
I have created many eyepiece sketches over the past 10 years, but tonight was the first time I've actually created a sketch of the Moon live at the eyepiece. Until now, all of my lunar sketches have been created from photos! It was a challenge because it was well below freezing and my eyepiece kept misting up.
Our created bird oasis allows me to get very close bird images. By regularly sitting quietly in this created "bird magnet" space I eventually become an accepted part of their environment. Often the birds perch too close for my tele lens (400 mm) to focus on, and I regularly have birds land on me or my hat! Most of the images taken here are minimally cropped. This bird is parked on the rim of our fountain and has paused for a look around before proceeding lower to drink. The red breast is usually visible, and it's the only Nuthatch with a white supercilium... no trouble with its species ID within this family. The sexes are more difficult... it's a matter of judging color intensity and contrast. Males typically have more intense coloring than females, but the differences are subtle. I believe this bird to be a juvenile... making the sex ID task even more difficult.
