... im letzten Moment ...
das Idiom 'at the eleventh hour' (zur elften Stunde) entspricht im Deutschen der Redewendung 'Kurz / Fünf vor Zwölf' oder 'in der letzten Sekunde / im letzten Moment'
... bildlich konnte ich nur eine der Uhrzeiten darstellen, daher die Entscheidung für die 11-Uhr-Stellung :)
für die Gruppe Verrückter Dienstag - Thema: Zeit
Einen schönen Dienstag euch allen ... und bleibt gesund !
[Ich werde erst am späten Abend so richtig Zeit für Flickr haben]
Who doesn't love garlic in any form. It's good together with spices, as a taster, as a sauce and yes even as raw.
Here is a close up of a garlic clove.
Happy MM!
One of my daily smoothies, good even for a cold and rainy day.
Recipe: almond milk, berries, avocado, spinach, chia seeds, vanilla zero carb protein, greek yogurt, cinnamon and Stevia. 😋 The perfect lunch.
For those asking, I'm fine. I've just been busy between annual health check ups, house chores, gym, crafts, vacation planning, and TV series. Thanks for your comments, really appreciated! 💕
What does your diet look like? Healthy or a Disaster?!
This female Goldfinch has found some fresh seeds from a wildflower similar to a Sunflower-a good choice! 😋
You're sexual. You're soulful. You're emotional. You're spiritual. You're magic. You're both of the light and the dark. You're human. Don't deny any aspects of who you are. A healthy soul is a whole soul.
Staying Healthy by knowing what and what not to eat
There was a warning last week for foragers not to misidentify mushrooms and toadstools.
I'd never be brave enough to forage!
HMM
Happiness is...a magnificent Hummingbird hawk-moth come your way on Holy Saturday 😍
Even if the photo is far from decent, as I couldn't do otherwise with a 70mm from a distance of over 2m and I did a rough crop, the joy of seeing my favorite Lepidoptera today is immense ❤️.
What a Wonderful World (Louis Armstrong cover - Reina del Cid)
Trying something completely different.
As I was taking some soup it looked really photogenic. There was no way I wasn't going to snap a picture of it!
I don't usually photograph food but this just caught my eye in a way that I couldn't pass the opportunity.
Eat well and take great photos!

Returning to Hyatt Regency Embarcadero to celebrate the arrival of 2017. Finally able to take a fireworks shot behind the Ferry Building :-) Wishing everyone in the Flickr community a happy , healthy, and safe 2017 and beyond!

#DutchAngle
Please press "Z" :)
A very unusual (for me) MM contribution in quite a few ways, because it is a photo that I have neither taken at home nor specifically for the "dutch angle" theme – this fluffy feather was a chance discovery at last Wednesday's (fabuloutastic, I should add) photowalk at the Olympic stadium; I didn't even think about the theme when I found this pretty feather in a corner of a step of one of the many, many staircases there. And of course this isn't the photo from that walk that I'd planned to upload first, either ;-). But often things don't turn out as expected (something which happens a lot lately when it comes to MMs), and that's not always a bad thing.
This small feather, about 6 cm / 2,3 inches long, came to my rescue when my original idea didn't work out – which every way I tried to make it work (it was a small spoke reflector which I'd once found in the street; the idea was to capture its distorted reflection which made it look like a flowing piece of honeycomb, something that came to my mind because of the reflector's honeycombed structure; well, to make it short, I never managed to get the distorted reflection sharp enough so it would be pleasant to look at; maybe I can still make it work later... I also tried to magnify those honecomb patterns inside of the reflector by using the extension tubes and the Raynox DCR-250 close-up lens – but, no, it wasn't meant to work).
But back to my "Olympic feather": Most conveniently, I had already taken it at a dutch angle (Mr Freud, can you hear me?). It is a single handheld picture taken with the Ricoh (the GRIII rocks!) which I've sharpened in Topaz Sharpen AI, and then further processed it in Nik's HDR Efex Pro – I started with the "En Vogue" preset "Cool Deep" which I'd then still tweaked a little here or there. And because the staircase I'd found this feather on had been in a shadowy corner of the stadium (and the feather in an even more shadowy corner of the step), the DNG outcome was rather dull; to add some much needed light I went into ON1 where I added a "Sunflare" texture filter to the upper left corner of the image; back in LR I added the preset "Soft Fog" and tweaked the luminosity and saturation sliders for a dreamy look.
HMM, Everyone, stay safe and healthy!
Nicht das, was ich eigentlich für's Thema machen wollte, aber das passiert mir in letzter Zeit häufiger ;-) Meine ursprüngliche Idee war es, die verzerrte Spiegelung eines kleinen Speichenreflektors (ein Straßenfund) auf einer Spiegelfliese zu fotografieren; die Verzerrung ließ den Reflektor wie ein fließendes Stück Honigwabe aussehen, was auch schön mit der wabenartigen Struktur des Reflektors korrespondierte – nur wollte es mir partout nicht gelingen, der Verzerrung zumindest ein wenig Schärfe abzuringen. Ich habe dann versucht, die Wabenstruktur im Innern des Reflektors mithilfe der Zwischenringe und der Raynox-DCR-250-Makrolinse zu vergrößern, aber auch hier hatten die Endergebnisse zu wenig Schärfe.
Irgendwann, es war schon ziemlich später Abend (wie immer), gab ich frustriert auf. Zum Glück fiel mir dann die flauschige Feder ein, die ich letzte Woche zufällig auf einer der unzähligen Stufen des Olympiastadions entdeckt und aus der Hand mit der GRIII fotografiert hatte. Die Größe (gut 6 cm) passte, den Winkel hatte ich bei der Aufnahme (unbewusst? Freud lässt grüßen, denn vor Ort hatte ich überhaupt nicht an das Dutch-Angle-Thema gedacht) auch schon passend schräg gewählt... Warum also nicht, auch wenn diese Feder nicht das Foto ist, das ich als Erstes vom (außerordentlich schönen) Fotowalk dort hochladen wollte. Ich habe das Bild dann in Topaz Sharpen AI nachgeschärft (Modus "Stabilize") und in HDR Efex ausgehend von der Voreinstellung "En Vogue: Cool Deep" bearbeitet. Was dann noch fehlte, war etwas mehr Licht bzw. Leuchten, denn die Feder hatte auf einer der Treppen auf der Schattenseite des Olympiastadions gelegen und das DNG war recht flau und trüb. Also habe ich in ON1 noch eine "Sunflare"-Textur drübergelegt und in LR die Weißtöne aufgehellt und als Abschluss noch die Voreinstellung "Weicher Nebel" (mit zusätzlichen Veränderungen meinerseits bei der Struktur, Luminanz und Sättigung) für ein weicheres, verträumtes Aussehen verwendet.
Manchmal kommt es eben anders, als man denkt, aber das muss ja nichts Schlechtes sein ;-) Ich wünsche Euch eine schöne Woche, liebe Flickr-Freunde, passt weiterhin gut auf Euch auf!
From Pipsqueak to a teenager in no time. The parents did a great job of raising them. This is the last image I took before my favourite lens crapped out on me. It wasn't doing good at the last rodeo so I kind of knew it was coming. Had to buy a new printer recently and now I have to decide on a new lens, when it rains, it pours, but nothing lasts forever. Tomorrow I'm going to look at Sigma lenses which are more affordable than the Canon ones. Anybody who has any useful info, reviews or tips about Sigma lenses would be much appreciated.

Happy Macro Mondays !
Diet experts keep saying that you should eat 5 fruit and vegetables a day to keep healthy, that's why I chose these delicious strawberries bought at a nearby farm as my contribution to this week's photo for Macro Mondays.
MacroMonday, tema della settimana: "Stare in buona salute".
È ormai risaputo che trascorrere un po' di tempo all'aria aperta fa bene alla salute. Basta anche sedersi su una panchina dove ci siano un po' di alberi e respirare aria pura. Il top sarebbe abitare vicino al bosco, dove basta poco per fare una passeggiata... mi rendo conto che chi abita in città, ha più difficoltà a respirare aria pura!!
Happy Macro Monday!
MacroMonday, theme of the week: "Staying healthy".
It is now well-known that spending some time in the open air is good for health. Just sit on a bench where there are a few trees and breathe pure air. The best would live near the woods, where little is enough to take a stroll... I realize that those who live in the city have more difficulty breathing pure air !!
Happy Macro Monday!

Macro Mondays theme of "Staying Healthy"
As part of controlling two conditions -- diabetes and high blood pressure -- I try to eat very healthily and so load up on fresh vegetables, the fresher the better. I like to shop at the local Farmer's Market and so get veggies freshly picked by a local grower.
Just for size reference here -- the tomato pictured is a cherry tomato and is approx. 3 cm across. Also in this salad shot are a radish slice, mini-cucumber slice, and some organic lettuce & baby spinach leaves.
It was so cold that I cut my afternoon walk short and made my way back home through the golf course ... no golf, today due to the very cold weather that we continue to have!!
