Thanks for comments and favs :)

A couple of shots of the falls in The Faerie Glen near Rosemarkie. The 30 second exposure means the autumn leaves floating in the pool add a strange golden swirl.

Sliding across crystals with a ember blue glow, the Faerie Dragon is one of the most noble of mythic creatures. Pure magic flows within her veins. One shouldn't fear nasty dragon talons or fangs, but powerful spells and astounding illusions.

 

This was built for the cover of November's Brick Journal (now available), which highlights creatures great and small :) Now available online or in most Lego stores.

 

This model is being posted on ebay, so if you'd like to enter the bidding war, and own the model on the cover of Brick Journal, check it out!

 

It is also unintentionally happens to line up for the CCC XI category

Thanks for viewing!

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,

There is a rapture on the lonely shore,

There is society, where none intrudes,

By the deep sea, and music in its roar:

I love not man the less, but Nature more.

This plushie I made on commission, but the design is my own, based on this picture from my blog:

The eyes were a bit of a challenge as I haven't made them like this before, but I think they turned out ok.

Magical light in what's left of the gardens at the end-of-the-day. Pretty much SOOC w/just minor adjustments to levels and a quick crop.

A fairy is a spirit or supernatural being that is found in the legends, folklore, and mythology of many cultures. They are generally portrayed as humanoid in appearance and as having supernatural abilities such as the ability to fly, cast spells and to influence or foresee the future.

 

Fairies were noted for their mischief and malice, when considered as beings that a person might actually encounter. Water faeries and hags (eg. Peg Powler and Jenny Greenteeth), prone to drowning people, could be avoided by avoiding the bodies of water they inhabit.

 

This fairy is currenly residing in Wailea, Maui, Hawaii.

Yep we're all hedgehog faeries here! ‍♀️💞

The wings are from one of the butterflies from my collection of butterflies which I found dead.

Close as I can remember to the name of this Beauty!

Hope everyone had a marvelous and carefree fourth of July Celebration! The rains here, held off on the Riverfront Show and Fireworks,which were attended by over 100,000 folks! Quite a show which was hosted by Michael McDonald, a resident here and featuring other Artists and 16,000 different fireworks which lasted for 20 minutes!We watched it on the television,as there is just too much traffic!

Rains came within a quarter hour of it's end, and we would have gotten drenched before reaching our car! Heh-Heh!

 

Party Hardy with a Closeup View Here!

..but I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

Had a little trip out to Kirklinton Hall today, and bumped into the owner who allowed me around to take a few shots of the waterfalls and Hall which was much appreciated. There has been a lot of work done on the gardens and Hall since I last visited a few year back now.

It was also a good excuse to have a play with my new toy, my Canon 70D and I was very impressed and didn't find it too difficult to use.

It was so much fun photographing this lovely group of Fey women at the Carolina Renaissance Festival in Huntersville, North Carolina, USA. I love their amazing and fanciful garb.

 

Explored - Highest position: 302 on Thursday, January 18, 2024, Thanks for all the views, comments and FAVs.

I promise you that you’ll enjoy this one of you can view this in 3D! This is a perfect example of composing for depth, where the 2D image appears cluttered but the 3D image neatly places things in layers. Note: this is a cross-view 3D image!

 

The main image is cross-view 3D, meaning that you are supposed to cross your eyes to see the three dimensional effect. This is done by inverting the order of the images so the left side is on the right and vice versa. When you cross your eyes, the goal is to see three versions of the image – the middle one will consist of your left eye seeing the right image and your right eye seeing the left image in overlap, bringing the image to life. I usually start with the images filling no more than 20% of my field of view. Here’s a lengthier tutorial… and trust me, you’ll love what you see if you can get it to work: www.kula3d.com/how-to-use-the-cross-eyed-method.html

 

If you’ve got a stereoscope, VR headset or other viewer, here’s a version that works perfectly with these visual aids: donkom.ca/stereo/DKP_6686-parallel.jpg

You’re looking at a thistle, illuminated with high amounts of ultraviolet light. The camera is on a tripod and during a 30 second exposure I am repeated flashing a set of four UV flashes to give me the maximum output over a length of time. This is required because the 3D macro lenses I use have very small fixed apertures, around F/45 or so for this one. These apertures are so small that diffractions comes into play, but you don’t notice it as much when you overlap the two images for a proper 3D view.

 

The flowers fluoresce a wonderful assortment of blues while the petals take on a reddish rust colour, which I think is beautifully in line with their thorny appearance. In order to make sure that there is no visible light contamination, an image is taken without the flashes to ensure that it is completely black. The flashes themselves are a combination of two filters that block all visible light: Hoy U-340 and MidOpt BP365. The Hoya bleeds a bit of red light while the MidOpt filter bleeds a bit of purple, but paired together they block each-other’s light bleed and “purify” the resulting UV light. If anything bounces back to the camera, it’s because whatever surface the UV light hit has fluoresced into the visible spectrum for the camera to capture.

 

While it would be very difficult to tech 3D photography or UV fluorescence photography in groups, I’d happily book a private workshop with anyone that wants to come to my studio to learn how to make images like this. :)

 

Also, due to popular demand, I’ve opened up a second date for my day-long macro photography workshop held in my award-winning gardens and studio. Check it out, it could fill up quickly! www.donkom.ca/product/full-day-macro-workshop-july-28-2018/

I’m obsessed with seeing them in this stage
