I have been going through this years photos and processing a few forgotten ones as a recap of this past year and my first year on Flickr.
Sooooo… People have asked me, if I ever make fullperm mesh. I've wanted to for a while but I've been so busy with other stuff that I haven't really been able to focus on it much! My sister Archer Candy and I both make all of our own meshes and we thought a while back how cool it would be to have a mesh store with full perm and semi-exclusive meshes. So we created MaM - Make a Mesh… we've both been really busy so we hadn't done anything with it yet, but I decided wanted to finally start using it and sharing my meshes with everyone! So I hope you like them.
SOOOOoooooooo.... HERE IT IS: my first Semi-Exclusive mesh (drumrolls): The One Shoulder Backpack. ONLY 11 will be sold in total! On sale in front of my store Breaux Jr. until Friday for a discount: $1500L and will go up to $2000 on marketplace and at MaM mainstore for any that are left!

Sct. Hans Have 2024-08-25
Roskilde Fjord is one of Denmark's most beautiful and exciting fjord landscapes. Roskilde Fjord forms a large part of Skjoldungernes Land National Park and is one of Denmark's most important breeding grounds for water birds. The narrow fjord extends 40 kilometres into the Sealand countryside.
About Sct. Hans Have:
In the heart of National Park Skjoldungernes Land, you’ll find Sct. Hans Have. The garden features a café, a garden shop, and a nursery.
Vegetables and fruit have been cultivated here for as long as there has been a psychiatric hospital at Sankt Hans—that is, for over 200 years. Sct. Hans Have is a social enterprise that, rooted in the site’s unique history, aims to promote mental well-being.
Sct. Hans Have’s garden kitchen has a deep love for our lush surroundings. Sct. Hans Garden grow their own organic berries, fruit, herbs, and edible flowers and collaborate closely with skilled local organic producers.
I have much more dramatic images from the Palouse this year, but as you probably know me, I am quite fond of the softer, quieter and subtler moments that play out, and such is the case with this image.
I may not be much of one for getting up for sunrise, but once I am past that painful, awkward first two minutes, I really do enjoy being out as the day begins. In this case, there was a small group of us up on Steptoe Butte marveling at the texture in the sky and the soft light on the land. We started out at the top of the butte but stopped about halfway down at this pull-out and I promptly got my only pair of shoes soaking wet wading through the dew-heavy grass because I could see this tree from the road and I knew I needed a photo of it. And this is how that small group of us, tree included, began our Sunday morning.
More mornings should start like this.
Have not been out for a while so here is another photo from last year, a closeup of a bird we tend to take for granted but still an interesting bird when you watch them.

Male Twelve Spotted Skimmer, this is my favorite dragonfly of all! I found this one at my aunt's pond yesterday.
Sorry I am so far behind on commenting, we have had family here from Texas and have been pretty busy. I will try to get to everyone's posts soon.
Having spent the past 4 days working at the Convention Center, I was struck by this lone figure happily working on his laptop in the middle of a staircase seldom used for climbing up to the exhibits since there are escalators nearby.
Having recently been influenced by a couple of other photographers on Flickr, who are far more creative than I am, I thought I'd give a multiple exposure a try for myself. Thanks go to Charlotte Hedman, Lynn Reket, and my neighbor's flower garden. It took a little practice but here I'm seeing double with two exposures and a few creative editing liberties. Have a good weekend!

I have finally finished doing the embroidery on my applique quilt - now to have it professionally quilted. It has been a work in progress for quite a while. Each little piece had to been drawn on paper backed fusible web, cut out and ironed on the wrong side of the fabric and then cut out again and ironed onto each block. There was over 150 leaves which shows how much work is involved. I then blanket stitched around each piece before embroidering on the flowers and other pieces. Once it is quilted I can then add all the little buttons to the quilt and it is finally finished. I really enjoy applique, but had to fit it in with my bear making.
Weather conditions have not been ideal for the entire day, zero light at sunset, very nice blue hour full of dark clouds (picture next week!), and then just completely overcast. I went for a short nap and I decided to wake up again around midnight to check the sky. The conditions were not ideal but it was much better than I expected. This is the only lucky shot I managed to take at the Milky Way since a strong wind was blowing clouds just to the center of the Galaxy. After that I had to fight quite hard to get a decent shot of the foreground. The terrain was next to a lake and I was litterally sinking in water every movement I was making. These flowers are called Eriophorum (cotton-grass) and they are typical of the Artic Tundra or the north-west Alps (especially high in the Adamello National Park). I wanted these beauties rather than a simple reflection (which was anyway impossible due to wind). I had to make compromises with the dept of field because a long exposure of several minutes was impossible and so were for focus stacking shots, the wind just made everything tricky. After some attempts I got away with a clean shot at high iso and low f/. This is it, the night at 2600m in the wilderness of the Adamello National Park.

Here is a cute pair of Galahs, the male one is giving the female one a nice clean, the male is on the right and the female is on the left.
The calmly flowing waters of a swollen Kickapoo Creek gently touch the concrete footings currently supporting the passage of this heavy, 131-car, southbound Union Pacific coal drag as its two, lead, AC six-axles ride their dynamic brakes, coasting downhill across a combination deck plate and lattice through truss bridge along the former C&NW "SI Line" outside Bartonville on a gloomy July morning. This train of loaded aluminum BethGons -- symbol CNAPW 14 -- are topped out with over 18,000 tons of Wyoming's finest black diamonds; Filled at Peabody's North Antelope Mine in the state's rich Powder River Basin, these hoppers have only a few short miles left to travel before reaching their destination at NRG Energy's Powerton Generating Station, near Pekin. The train will soon cross the Illinois River drawbridge and immediately make a right turn onto the IMRR and down into Crescent Yard for interchange where they'll tie down and the loads will wait for an Illinois & Midland crew to spot the cars at the plant for final dumping. Slated for decommission come the end of 2028 due to the country's relentless insistence on "cleaner" energy alternatives, Powerton is the sole remaining, actively burning coal-fired power plant to still remain standing in the greater Peoria area, outliving the facilities at Havana, Hennepin and Canton's Duck Creek (2019), and eventually the E.D. Edwards Station at Bartonville (2022). Once closed, it'll be another major hit in activity levels for a route that is already down in traffic. Twice weekly scheduled manifest service between Peoria and Clinton, IA, as needed coal, grain and ethanol unit traffic, and seasonal ballast trains are pretty much the bulk of what traverses this line.
For southbounds, this is the final, and most dramatic, crossing atop a snaky Kickapoo Creek which twists and turns beneath the rails of the Peoria Subdivision in six different locations within just about a short, two mile stretch of track. Just about a half mile back from this bridge, the train is still working through the CTC controlled interlocking at "Peoria JCT" where the Peoria Sub main to South Pekin splits from UP's "Low Line," which routes trains for Peoria area interchange into and out of their small Adams St. Yard just a short distance away on the city's southwest side. The single-tracked Peoria Subdivision, which runs south out of Nelson away from the busy Geneva Sub, uses a combination of CTC, TWC and ABS infrastructure to route what little traffic runs down this line and is also the only class 1 of four that has a "through route" through the city. A line that does not get much attention from photographers, an older "winged" EMD SD70ACe on the point of a well timed coal load just was enough for me to grab the camera and quickly pick it off at this very seldom shot location.
I sure could do without that walkway.
"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,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne’er express, yet cannot all conceal."
Have you ever have the experience to walk alone at rainy night, and you just saw a thread or a gleam of light on the street, but it's enough to warm your heart & guide you way, it's the light from heaven , so warm & comfortable , I called it "Warm light". This series I would like to share with you about this.
An old switchboard for the power generators of a factory.
If you have time you are welcome to have a look at all my other pictures as well: www.flickr.com/photos/christianmeister
Have a great day...dear friends! :-)
