For the Macro Mondays' theme - Twist. A twisted tungsten filament in a small flashlight incandescent bulb.
I got lucky and came a cross some very heavily dewed spider webs this morning. I got unlucky when my battery died. Got a few shots though. The web was lit from the sun just cresting the dark trees in the background, which is why they pop so much.
Some of the interesting colors in this shot are coming from the spider web itself smashing up the light into rainbows like prisms. Look in between the drops and you can see what I mean. Not sure why this happens. See it better in large size.
Also, there are several threads holding the biggest dew drops. not sure if the web started this way or collapsed into this form from the weight. There was a full round web of drops.
I had to remove some lens flare from this...not entirely successful. Hope it isn't too noticeable.
Happy Monday!

There are lots of dim gas filaments at west side of the Cygnus nebula complex. I have spent this Autumn season by shooting them. Due to close proximity of brighter and more eye catching nebulae in Cygnus, this area is not very commonly imaged.
Clouded out again today... (now that's a surprise!)
I managed to find a short break in the clouds long enough to grab a few AVI.

I want to get to grips with layering for an idea I have so here is a little experiment for this evening. Trying to suss out how to get the glass on top of the cat so it appears in the bulb. Any tips much appreciated!

Exit le confinement, où l'absence de tout événement, nous livre aux questionnements, dont les réponses risquent d'être un retournement où le monde d'après réfléchirait à celui d'avant, où les lois du vivant primeraient celles d'argent.
Mais nous perdrions surement ces jolis filaments, qui mettent au firmament tout ce que nous avons d'inconséquent.
La nature est assez suprenante dans ses textures et ses ressemblances. Les filaments de cette asclépiade ressemblent à une mèche de cheveux.
Nature is quite surprising range in its textures and similarities. The filaments of the milkweed looks like a lock of hair.
Merci pour vos commentaires. Thank you for your comments.

This week the Sun featured a very long filament that stretched at least half way across the Sun (Oct. 20-22, 2015). Filaments are elongated clouds of plasma that are tethered above the Sun by magnetic forces. They are often unstable and usually break apart in less than a week, though they can last longer than that. Filaments are darker than most of the SunÕs surface when viewed in extreme ultraviolet light, as it is here. Credit: Solar Dynamics Observatory, NASA.
