This is from yesterday, I found the rose in my garden. You have to know, we have a really small garden and this was actually the only thing I could photograph but I like the shot.
It's january, the weather forcast predicts snow for the weekend but I can't wait for roses to bloom again, not to be frozen. We had no real snow the whole december and now I REALLY don't want it anymore. The only good thing will be that I'm gonna have something different to photograph when everything's white.
I took my last exam until february or march today! :) The week can only get better now!
Handle with care.
Client session with a Mississauga mom-to-be!
She was a good sport with the stickers :)
It's been a while since my last posting of this leaf. I'm pleasantly surprised to see that this beauty has survived so long. The fragility increases daily. Winter has come and gone and I'm hoping for more time together before the landscapers do their spring trimming.
The first shots I took of this leaf were in April and May of 2010 www.flickr.com/photos/aristaria/4602900863/in/set-7215762....
One of the most meaningful messages I saw at the Fragile Forest exhibit which I hoped these idiot real estate developers all over the world, and especially in Dubai,would see and understand.Sorry for the poor focus, it is probably symbolic of the hocus focus foresight of these greedy property developers who care only about money and nothing about the environment! (Singapore, Oct. 2009) (Actually, I was using a camera with a very small viewfinder by today's standards, so the focus appeared good enough on the tiny LCD screen).
Okay, so here's the thing. There's this artist? Franck de Las Mercedes? His project is, he paints boxes and sends them to people with labels like "contains strength" or "contains tranquility." He does this for free. Any time anyone asks him to send a box, he (eventually) sends a box.
Here's the catch: You can only request one. EVER.
I found out about this here on Flickr and requested one for a friend of mine who (1) is a serious art appreciator and (2) could use a little boost these days.
I told people about it and someone sent me one. And yeah: These days, I could use it.
Actually the roses are still fine but on this photo, I wanted to try to express the fragile of the beauty.
'Ranger stations' are set up at several exhibits all over Singapore Zoo and Night Safari where schoolchildren on field trips are given a hands on 'touch and feel' experience or a macro view of things. This one talks about various types of soil erosion by worms and insects. The 'rangers stations' are manned by volunteers, called docents. Of course, this Rangers' Station is empty, the guys you see here are visitors. Such a rich educational experience and yet these chaps cannot seem to get rid of their cellphone and ipod. Oh well!

Puoi spendere minuti, ore, giorni, settimane o persino mesi ad analizzare una situazione; cercando di mettere insieme i pezzi, giustificando cosa sarebbe potuto accadere o cosa sarebbe stato giusto che accadesse. Oppure puoi semplicemente lasciare i pezzi sul pavimento e andare fottutamente avanti.
This tiny snail was only 4 or 5 mm in diameter.
The image is stacked with "CombineZ" at f/5.6 from 3 shots (each with different focus, to get sufficient DOF while the background stays soft [clear?]) with my Sigma 150 mm macro lens.

Me encantan las construcciones que a veces se ven por aquí. Parecen improvisadas. Como la vida de las personas.
A frame from what I actually ended up doing for my first photobook project, tracking time and change in a domestic space by following the same shadow. Those who follow me have seen a few shots of this plant's shadow just in the last month.
This Fragile Papershell Mussel (Leptodea fragilis) is doing what mussels do best: filtering sediment out of the river to feed themselves, which simultaneously cleans the water. This mussel was in the Marais des Cygnes River in October, 2011.

The sun destroyed the hoar frost and quickly melted the fragile ice crystals, but not before some beautiful pieces of winter cover were highlighted.
I saw that a rose was just flowering in my Garden, so I cut it with the aim to photograph it indoors, by the time I got to it the next morning for the best light, half of the petals had dropped already.
Showing the fragility of living things when removed from thier natural environment.

A piece called’Fragile’.I’ve went through a lot with my body over the years.I starved it and cut it during my teens due to my depression.I had it abused by my abuser cooperlock during the age of 16-18.Since then I’ve tried to come to terms with the fact my body is disabled and that that is ok.I’ve had to come to terms with how feminine it is as a non-binary person.My body is fragile like flowers but slowly I’m learning to see it as beautiful like flowers too.
"Snow and pine tree" expresses a sense of evanescent intensity, of the still quiet of a snow blanketed scene broken by the hawk's sudden awareness and the quiver of snow showering off of the pine.
Closeup of an amazing flower, shortly after a little afternoon rain. Seen in Funchal's Tropical Gardens.
Again I was hoping for a frosty morning, as I'm trying to shoot this plant covered in a frost. Even though it lacks the frost, I like the composition of this image.

Gypsum (the specimen at left is 2.7 centimeters across along the top)
A mineral is a naturally-occurring, solid, inorganic, crystalline substance having a fairly definite chemical composition and having fairly definite physical properties. At its simplest, a mineral is a naturally-occurring solid chemical. Currently, there are over 6000 named and described minerals - about 200 of them are common and about 20 of them are very common. Mineral classification is based on anion chemistry. Major categories of minerals are: elements, sulfides, oxides, halides, carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and silicates.
The sulfate minerals all have one or more sulfate anions (SO4 -2).
Gypsum is a moderately common hydrous calcium sulfate mineral (CaSO4·2H2O). Gypsum has a nonmetallic luster, is usually clearish to whitish, is soft (H≡2), and rather fragile/brittle. Gypsum has 3 cleavage planes, one of which is well developed (“one good cleavage), and the other two are not well developed (“two poor cleavages”). Broken gypsum specimens are frequently thin plates - the consequence of the one good cleavage plane.
Gypsum has economic value as a mineral. It is the starting ingredient for making plaster and wallboard.

Fragile. I liked the way the botanical gardens where reflected in the bubble and wanted to show how fragile the things around us are. (MMR) © Patricia Fenn. All Rights Reserved. No usage allowed including copying or sharing without written permission.
Simplemente un macro que me gustó mucho como quedó.
Me encanta la sonbra que crean las alas... y los colores de la fotografía.

Day 25: I wonder if this is a bit too shocking?
Have to say I was shocked to see how much weight my little girl has lost and how poorly and frail she looked as she slept (she's had a Norovirus infection and been pretty ill with it - worse than the rest of us). Anyway, this is a personal shot to remind me how fragile my children are sometimes.
