I have no idea if this chap is riding a bike like this because of the condition of his legs or whether the bike was responsible for the condition of his legs.
Merging in- and out-of-focus shots to create a soft-focus effect.; this time with more exposure in the source photos before blending.
I took this for a bit of fun and to try something I'd seen others do. I set my lens to 70mm and as I took the photo I zoomed out. I took a few shots trying to get the timing right. In the end I was happy with the result. I like that it perceives lots of
movement within the frame, when in fact I and everything else was almost completely stationary.
Hot water freezing faster than cold water at low temperatures? Yes, it’s a strange water property known as “Mpemba effect”. I decided to try it out. This is my version, with a little help from a thermos and my muse of course :)

Ambient Temperature: -30 Celsius / -22 Fahrenheit
The image reflected in the water is often enveloping. The setting is ideal to imagine how that image would be broken by the effect of a stone thrown in the center of it.
This river-tumbled chunk of petrified wood has the best shadow-effect I have ever seen in petrified wood. I may have to set up a short digital-video clip and offer that view, as soon as I figure out how to do it. It has good color and a very tight-wavy-grain, like a good walnut, or maple. I collected this one near Cox's Fishing Camp, south of Zapata, Texas, along an old shoreline of Falcon Lake, about five years ago.
I was inspired by Gary Waterhouse's (www.flickr.com/photos/gary-waterhouse/) image on Flickr EXPLORE (www.flickr.com/photos/gary-waterhouse/49719057933/). So I decided to watch the video on how to make these images. Here is a YouTube video link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8T3_Ew0wqU&feature=youtu.be
Not everyone likes these tonings but I love the look of lomo. Not every photo suits it. I found an action by PBB that gives this effect with the click of a mouse.

This product has the effect of making bug pixels visible when worn.

.. all those wee terraces which when you look at them closely are each a little track with hoof marks and a tufty edge
I ,a shy and quiet boy since young, was a target of the bullied throughout my 8 years of childhood. The memories of being bullied continuously have had a little or more effect on my confidence and activeness. I shut myself off from the society, claimed myself a weak person and brought myself with a gloomy, tired and scary look.
I’ve never believed in myself…
I came to photography when my dad lent me his camera when I was 6. From the first clicks, I already felt "this is where I belong". Photography helps me recreating the world seen through my eyes and felt by my soul, helps me remembering faces, smiles, memories of a passing time. And it even reminds of the things which are supposed to be forgotten.
I chose dark art because dark art is a fine illustration of the world I am seeing - a world of melancholy and sadness. Through dark art, I can dig deep into the darkest place of a human, right there, people are living in the own nature: weak, crazy and also vulnerable. Being an introvert person, dark art is also a way of relieving the soul, showing people who I am, what I am and what I’m capable of - something that I rarely share with anybody. As a result, I became more open with everyone, gave more laughs and talked more to the people around me. "You look way more better then?" - my friends said in satisfaction.
I never stop doubting myself ...
I’ve been reeling from my "what should I do" and "I’m not good enough" thinkings, which makes me deviate from my original path. Always wish to be like other photographer pals: big relationships, big interacts and having a support team while I am alone all the time,… I gradually forget that I’ve lost myself, forgotten that my path was different from all of them. I am an independent existence, I exist uniquely and I should’ve not been anyone’s copy. It’s been a difficult time right now, I was once again separated myself from everyone, even the ones I love so much. Always bringing suspense and fear of any situations. And even when writing these words, those emotions are making my hands shake and my heart beats so fast.
I know that there aren’t any obstacles that cannot be overcome if I dare to face, and I know that nothing can stop me if I truly believe that I can do it in my heart. However, "How?", "How can I really believe in myself?”, "How can I become more confidence?", "How can I make this? "How can I do that ...?", “How…?”, “How…?” and "How ...?". I’ve spent a great deal of time resting, thinking and rearranging things that were still unfinished. Those fears are still here, those thoughts are still here, and the answer I still cannot find out but at least this time I will try, something at least makes me feel better. And I hope someday I can find my own answer and be happy with it.

MY FRIENDS, IN THIS DAYS I AM OFTEN THINKING ON HOW RELATED the events of our personal life and our world ARE ( wars, tragedies, earthquakes here and there, floods, hurricanes etc..)
IT MAKES MY FEEL VERY "SMALL ".
I WISH YOU A THOUGHTFUL WEEK!
The butterfly effect is a metaphor that encapsulates the concept of sensitive dependence on initial conditions in chaos theory; namely that small differences in the initial condition of a dynamical system may produce large variations in the long term behavior of the system.
The term "butterfly effect" itself is related to the work of Edward Lorenz, and is based in chaos theory and sensitive dependence on initial conditions, already described in the literature in a particular case of the three-body problem by Henri Poincaré in 1890[1]. He even later proposed that such phenomena could be common, say in meteorology. In 1898[2] Jacques Hadamard noted general divergence of trajectories in spaces of negative curvature, and Pierre Duhem discussed the possible general significance of this in 1908[3]. The idea that one butterfly could eventually have a far-reaching ripple effect on subsequent historic events. [WIKI]
This is allegedly CSX train Q639, headed to TRRA's Madison Yard from Rose Lake Yard at CP Junctionon the Illinois Transfer...but from this angle, looks like vintage BNSF.
Progress Rail Leasing has the market on motive power this day, with former ATSF SD75Ms 238, 231, and 250 doing the honors, and all in their as-built numbers, not counting a brief encounter with the number "8" during their reign on BNSF.
Luckily, the clouds from winter storm Avery have rolled back just in time for a bit of sun before sunset.

Lotus leaf and water droplet: ultrahydrophobicity
Lotus leafes show up ultrahydrophobicity, that means that a water droplet has a contact angle > 160 degrees, and there is no wetting of the surface.
Lotus leaves have a micro-nano structure. The micro structure shows up as tiny balls with an diameter around 10 microns and an average distance of 20 microns. This structure is made visible with a rather low magnification objective (7.5x) here, but with the help of a very small water droplet (diameter 0.2 mm), which is used as an additional lens, the micro-structure becomes visible.
On top of this micro-structure is an even smaller nano structure of small wax particles, which can not be seen here.
