An artistic rendering of a macro view of a Pop It Topper bubble fidget toy. The frame represents a span of two-inches across.
Those who are not familiar with Pop It Toppers can click the below link to a Wikipedia article about them (with pictures). The version I photographed (in its entirety) is a very small topper with only four bubbles on it.
Strobist info:
The scene was illuminated by two Nikon SB900 speedlights and a steady LED light. The SB900s were placed CL/CR and fired in Manual mode @ 1⁄32 power through 24" gridded soft boxes and triggered by PocketWizard Plus Xs. The LED was placed @ 11-o'clock.
Lens: Tokina AT - X M100 AF PRO D(AF 100mm f / 2.8 Macro) with 12mm + 20mm extension tubes attached.
I know this is all a bit yuk to some but I have found this incredibly fascinating. This is the Poplar Hawk Moth Caterpillar becoming a chrysalis, it's head and little feet die off first like you can see here and then within a few hours they are totally brown.

To gain control of the world of space is certainly one of our tasks. The danger begins when in gaining power in the realm of space we forfeit all aspirations in the realm of time. There is a realm of time where the goal is not to have but to be, not to own but to give, not to control but to share, not to subdue but to be in accord. Life goes wrong when the control of space, the acquisition of things of space, becomes our sole concern.
Nothing is more useful than power, nothing more frightful. We have often suffered from degradation by poverty; now we are threatened with degradation through power. There is happiness in the love of labor; there is misery in the love of gain. Many hearts and pitchers are broken at the fountain of profit. Selling himself into slavery to things, man becomes a utensil that is broken at the fountain.
AS CIVILIZATION ADVANCES, the sense of wonder almost necessarily declines. Such decline is an alarming symptom of our state of mind. Mankind will not perish for want of information, but only for want of appreciation. The beginning of our happiness lies in the understanding that life without wonder is not worth living. What we lack is not a will to believe but a will to wonder.

The Common Cuckoo shows two adult plumage morphs—adult male plumage is grey and adult females are either grey or, less frequently, rufous.
The situation is less clear in juveniles, as both sexes exhibit variable proportions of grey and rufous colour. We thus describe the patterns related to sex-specific plumage colour variation in a central European Cuckoo population.
For the challenge to find and photograph something tiny. This wristwatch gearwheel may be small but it's perfectly formed.

These eight columns form a sculpture in the pedestrians section at the eastern end of Century Avenue, close to Century Square. 8 is the Chinese "lucky number".
This is a "vertigo" perspective of the sculpture in the previously uploaded shot.. And no, I did not lay on the ground to do this: The camera was on a tripod, just 30 cm above ground level, aligned with the axis of the artwork, the lens positioned above the center of the artwork (axis and center are marked by the joints of the granite floor tiles), the horizontal camera adjustment was done using a spirit level.

Dieses Foto entstand auf der Orchideenmesse 2024 in Neu-Ulm im Edwin-Scharff-Haus.
Es ist äußerst faszinierend, wie viele unterschiedliche Formen und Farben Orchideen haben können
Form, light, shade and aesthetic purity coalesce in the historic tenth century royal palace in Seville. Formerly the site of the Islamic era citadel of the city, the citadel was developed into a larger palace complex by the Abbadid dynasty and Almohads through the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries. A difficult image to capture.
Rumbeke Castle
In the early 16th century, Jacques I de Thiennes had a 15th-century noble farmstead converted into a castle. The final form of the castle arrived in 1535.
In 1730, the castle of Rumbeke was thoroughly rebuilt.
The counts of Thiennes owned the castle until 1856. By marriage, it then came into the hands of the de Limburg Stirum family until 1988. During that period, it was often damaged; by the Beggars, the wars of Louis XIV, the French Revolution, and WWI and II. During World War II, the castle became the residence of German officers .
Between 1961 and 1964, the castle was renovated.

Begin 16e eeuw liet Jacques I de Thiennes een 15e-eeuwse adellijke hoeve omvormen tot een kasteel. De uiteindelijke vorm van het kasteel kwam er in 1535.
In 1730 werd het kasteel van Rumbeke grondig verbouwd.
De graven van Thiennes bezat het kasteel tot 1856. Door huwelijk kwam het toen in handen van de familie de Limburg Stirum tot 1988. In die periode werd het dikwijls beschadigd; door de geuzen, de oorlogen van Lodewijk XIV, de Franse Revolutie, en WOI en II. Tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog werd het kasteel de residentie van Duitse officieren .
Tussen 1961 en 1964 werd het kasteel gerenoveerd.
This scene made me do a double take. Had some alien life form washed ashore? The infrared makes the live matter look ghostly white.
Boulders Beach is a sheltered beach made up of inlets between granite boulders, from which the name originated. It is located on the Cape Peninsula, in Simon's Town in the Western Cape province of South Africa. It is also commonly known as Boulders Bay. It is a popular tourist spot because of a colony of African penguins which settled there in 1982. Boulders Beach forms part of the Table Mountain National Park.
These African penguins are only found on the coastlines of Southern Africa (South Africa and Namibia). These penguins are currently endangered. As a result, the penguins are under the protection of the Cape Nature Conservation.
Although set in a residential area, it is one of the few sites where this vulnerable bird (Spheniscus demersus) can be observed at close range, wandering freely in a protected natural environment. From just two breeding pairs in 1982, the penguin colony has grown to about 3000 birds in recent years. This is partly due to the prohibition of commercial pelagic trawling in False Bay, which has increased the supply of sardines and anchovies, which form part of the penguins' diet. as well as the help from former SANDF naval officer, Van the Penguin Man
Bordered mainly by indigenous bush above the high-water mark on the one side, and the clear water of False Bay on the other, the area comprises several small sheltered bays, partially enclosed by granite boulders that are 540 million years old.
The most popular recreational spot is Boulders Beach, but the penguins are best viewed from Foxy Beach, where newly constructed boardwalks take visitors to within a few metres of the birds. It is also a famous swimming beach, although people are restricted to beaches adjacent to the penguin colony.
