Skate Event in Braunschweig

Ondu 6x6 pinhole camera. Mkll. Ilford Pan F 50. Fomadon Ro9.

This is the same plane as my last pic. While I usually get the exposure right, that was not the case here. Besides: Everything was moving. Anyway: I sort of like the photo.

I ordered the pattern from Etsy, reduced it some, and made this catnip fish for our cat family. (hand-stitched, mind you) Instead of filling it completely with dried catnip, I made a cylindrical pouch and inserted it along with the stuffing.

As you'll see in the following photographs, there just hasn't been much enthusiasm for the fish toy. I wonder if Jimmy made a peace pact with the fish.

so, for the MM theme for this coming Monday, I thought it would be cool to use food coloring to “tie dye” cotton candy— nope, it dissolved it!!

When you are trying to make the most of it to be a surprise but its just your luck ! I would blame it on my outfit? Merry... Oh no!!

Rue de la Trémoille, the 20th of January. Winter 2013, in Paris.

I started with seeds from a rotting organic tomato. Seeds were healthy. Should’ve grown but after nearly a month this is the result. Clearly GMO not organic. I’ve purchased three organic vegetables for a test. I’ll be posting photos as the project progresses.

This American Coot came up with the equivalent of an "old boot" after "fishing" at King Gillette Ranch, Malibu CA.

I'm between work and orchestra practice. Not only has my schedule not allowed me to do much more than work and sleep, there have been multiple crises within my family and friends over this past weekend.

I'm to the point where words fail me. Not because I am the one hurting, but because I'm watching others hurt.

I've little or no time to 'flickr' until Friday... please forgive.

Clock work(s)

I think my father was a frustrated engineer. For most of his life he was involved in looking for oil, working out ways to get it out and then to transport and refine it efficiently.

When he retired one of his many hobbies was horology, the study of clocks. He used to buy old broken ones at auctions, dismantle them, fix them and put them back together. Well, that was the theory!

Inevitably the number of clocks dismantled way exceeded the number put back together. This is an image of a tin of his leftover bits of clocks that I have kept. I guess I have kept them partly to remind me of him, but also, quite perversely and worryingly, because I actually like them. I guess I’m a frustrated something or other too :)

There are lots of bits in this image: an escapement for regulating the power from the spring or weights (top left), two parts of a strike mechanism (the large cog with spikes underneath and the arc of metal with teeth), a tiny drum for winding clock weight cord and a pulley in the background.

I like the patina and corrosion on the metal so tried to bring that out in the processing.

This is for the Macro Mondays group’s theme this week Cogwheel. The image is just over 2 inches across.

Thank you for taking time to look. I hope you enjoy the image! Happy Macro Mondays.

[Tripod in daylight with white card reflector; focused in Live View; remote release.

Ten images focus stacked in Affinity Photo.

Curves in LAB mode to strengthen colours and to tweak the contrast. A touch of added saturation and vibrance.

A bit of tidying up with inpainting, but there is a lot of dust and fluff which adds a bit to the feel of the image so I left most of it.

Sharpened using Unsharp Mask for the fine stuff and High Pass filter/Linear blend mode for the big stuff.

Slight dark vignette… and we’re done :) ]

8f class locomotive 48305 is seen on shed at Haworth 1940s weekend. The loco is in light steam as it had failed earlier in the day

Rien ne peut nous vaincre.

rien ne peut nous arrêter.

Nous seuls sommes un obstacle.

Restons ensemble.

Marchons, pas à pas sur ce chemin.

J'ignore ce que sera demain, Mais je peux déjà le construire maintenant.

Je ne marche plus seul, je le sais.

I'm in love with you, you silly thing

Anyone can see

What is it with you, you silly thing

Just take it from me

It was not a chance meeting

Feel my heart beating

You're the one

You could take all this, take it away

I'd still have it all

Cause I've climbed the tree of life

And that is why, no longer scared if I fall

When I get lost in space

I can return to this place

Cause, you're the one

Nothing fails

No more fears

Nothing fails

You washed away my tears

Nothing fails

No more fears

Nothing fails

Nothing fails

I'm not religious

But I feel so moved

Makes me want to pray,

Pray you'll always be here

I'm not religious

But I feel such love

Makes me want to pray

When I get lost in space

I can return to this place

Cause, you're the one

I'm not religious

But i feel so moved

Mmmm mmm...

I'm not religious

Makes me want to pray

I'm not religious

But i feel so moved

Makes me want to pray

Pray you'll always be here

I'm not religous

But i feel such love

makes me want to pray

I'm not religious (I'm not religious)

But I feel so moved (but it makes want to pray)

I'm not religious (I'm not religious)

Makes me want to pray (But it makes me want to pray)

I'm not religious (makes me want to)

But I feel so moved (pray)

I'm not religious (pray)

Makes me want to pray (pray)

Nothing fails

No more fears

Nothing fails

You washed away my tears

Nothing fails

No more fears

Nothing fails

Madonna, Nothing fails

Trail does not necessarily equal fail on the Iowa Pacific-operated 'Hoosier State', as demonstrated by GP40FH-2 4137, bringing up the rear of the classy consist at 18th Street on its way out of Chicago.

I'm stopping my 365 project and I thought about this very well. I know that taking pictures every day could help somebody improving and growing so much as a person and artist but I just feel like this is not the right way for me as a photographer. I'm used to taking picture when I have the right mood and I really cannot handle this pressure I put on myself. I just feel like I'm not getting better but just the other way around. Even if I only tried this one picture a day for only two weeks, I realized how much work it is and how much you have to love photography. I think my love is not that big for taking pictures everyday it's more a fun thing I do and I just don't want to lose this fun...

I really feel like I should start something new, more relaxed. I feel like I should delete some pictures of this stream and keep this stream only with the pictures I LIKE because that is what life is about - doing the things you like- isn't it ?

Sorry for this text ._. but I just had to write this.

I spent an embarrassingly large amount of time creating bubbles and having every one of them fail. My bubble solution needs to be remade because the bubbles die and pop very quickly but instead of pouring it out and starting with fresh, I kept going. I wanted to make it work and even though I was frustrated that they lost color and popped. I won't make that mistake tomorrow but need to use one of the images from today as a reminder that when things aren't working we should stop and fix them. I am not sure if you need to hear this message today too but if you know something isn't working instead of just powering through you will end up with better results and be happier if you fix the problem instead of just ignoring it and thinking it will go away. Learn from my failure... especially all of my grammatical errors.

I've been enjoying Failblog recently :o)

Shutter got stuck.

I love Victoria sponge but somehow I just haven't mastered :( All this folding business and combining, I just chuck it all in and hope for the best!! Still tastes good though....

fail.

Chụp xong cái ảnh cũng là lúc trên người có thêm chục vết muỗi đốt.

If you ever wondered what Truck vs. Bridge looked like, here it is.

This had obviously just happened. The cops werent there yet. The poor guy was sitting in the cab on his cell phone, with a "I don't even know what happened" look on his face.

Sad, kind of. There's no way that this isn't a terminable offense.

Not deliberately water entered the camera. It was in vertical position and inclined upwards, with the weak part up.
