Aromia moschata, Musk beetle

Size: 30 mm

 

This is the musk beetle form the last post shot from a different angle. I was able to turn the entire perch 120°, so all that really changed was the angle of the light – but that obviously makes a huge difference!

 

Stacked from 17 exposures in Zerene Stacker.

Dead Cider Gums, (Eucalyptus gunnii) on the Barren Tier, Tasmania.

 

Cider Gums are an endangered species. There are only a couple of small stands of living specimens in Tassie's Central Highlands.

 

From info I found on the Tas Uni site, I'm pretty sure that this stand was destroyed by fire in the early 1960s.

 

Fujifilm X-T5, XC 50-230mm f/4.5-6.7 OIS II, 1/4400th sec at f/8, ISO 800 (ISO was a fat finger error).

A few impressions of the Tempodrom in Berlin, a very popular event- and concerthall. It was a foggy day and I used film (Ilford HP5 plus) to take the pics of this series.

Started this thinking I was going to build a Vic Viper but it morphed into what is basically a revamped version of one of my older MOCs with the accent color swapped. Experimented with some negative space on the front prongs and went for a large rectangular engine as opposed to the usual circular shape.

Cliff Palace, Mesa Verde National Park

 

To me, Mesa Verde was the true center piece of a feast, the jewel of the invaluable necklace that was the pre-colonial heritage of this land. The views at dusk added to its deep charm, and the beauty of solitude was probably the most pleasant surprise.

Donald II, or rather Domnall mac CausantĂ­n (in Modern Gaelic: DĂČmhnall mac ChĂČiseim), was a king of the Picts who reigned between 889 and 900. He was the son of Constantine I (ConstantĂ­n mac CinĂĄeda), and succeeded Giric and Eochaid following their expulsion or death. The Prophecy of BerchĂĄn, which is not a prophecy at all but a poem written in the 12th century or later, gives him the epithet DĂĄsachtach, "the Madman".

 

The Chronicle of the Kings of Alba records that during his reign “The Northmen wasted Pictland
” and that “
a battle occurred between Danes and Scots at Innisibsolian where the Scots had victory”

 

According to the Chronicle, he was killed sometime in 900 by Vikings at Dunnottar in Aberdeenshire. It has been suggested that this event was part of King Harald Fairhair of Norway’s ravaging of Scotland as described in the Heimskringla. There is some disagreement about the nature of his death, with the Prophecy of Berchán attributing it to Gaels, not Vikings, and other sources reporting that he died at Forres.

 

Donald was succeeded by his cousin Constantine II, while his son Malcom, would become king in 943.

  

Pentacon 2.8/100

Hay momentos de arrebatadora ternura que solo un beso o un abrazo logran a la vez colmar y saciar. Son instantes hechos carne, hechos tacto, en que el beso o el abrazo son el resultado de la violentĂ­sima ternura con que los labios surcan o las yemas de los dedos hienden la piel del ser amado.
