Macro Monday, thème In ice

For the Macro Monday challenge "in ice" (February 15th 2021)

 

It was great fun playing with ice-cubes, though cold, of course! I decided to use an ice-cube tray, as it would make sure my macro was really small (roughly 2x3cm) So I filled the tray with tiny objects and scraps of vegetation from the garden. That's where I found this tiny feather too. It looked pretty ordinary when I popped the frozen cube out of the tray, but under the macro lens it looked way more interesting, and strangely like a fish! Mike is much better than me at seeing faces in images (pareidolia) and he tells me there is a face in there too! Hence the title!

(size guide for the ice-cube in the first comment field)

 

HMM!! and stay safe and well this week!

Macro Mondays. In Ice. "Scrat frozen for love"

 

The measurements in this photo are 7.4 cm wide by 6 cm high.

 

For the photo I have frozen ice in small and different plastic and glass containers lined with plastic wrap, previously smeared with a little oil. In these small containers I have poured to freeze, a mixture of water with sugar, lemon juice and measured on transparent gelatin powder, to eliminate as much as possible the concentration of bubbles and that the doll could be seen. And this has been the result, after setting the whole scene.

Good and happy week !!!

Todos sabemos lo que Scrat, siente por su bellota. En esta toma, la pobre ardilla, ha quedado petrificadamente congelada, al caer desde un risco arrastrada por las aguas, a un iceberg. Tendremos que esperar al deshielo para averiguar, si consigue salvaguardar su bellota (no se ha dado cuenta que realmente "ha cazado" una almendra). Mientras tanto, yo he ido cincelando los cubos de hielo, para que escape lo mas rápido que pueda.... continuará....

  

We all know how Scrat feels about his acorn. In this shot, the poor squirrel, has been frozen petrified, falling from a cliff dragged by the waters, to an iceberg. We will have to wait for the thaw to find out, if he manages to safeguard the acorn from him (he has not realized that he really "hunted" an almond). Meanwhile, I have been chiselling the ice cubes, so that it escapes as quickly as possible ... it will continue ...

  

Nous savons tous ce que Scrat pense de son gland. Dans ce cliché, le pauvre écureuil, a été gelé pétrifié, tombant d'une falaise traînée par les eaux, à un iceberg. Il faudra attendre le dégel pour savoir s'il parvient à sauvegarder son gland (il ne s'est pas rendu compte qu'il a effectivement "chassé" une amande). Pendant ce temps, j'ai ciselé les glaçons, pour qu'ils s'échappent le plus vite possible ... ça va continuer ...

  

Sappiamo tutti cosa pensa Scrat della sua ghianda. In questa inquadratura, il povero scoiattolo, è stato congelato pietrificato, precipitando da un dirupo trascinato dalle acque, su un iceberg. Dovremo aspettare il disgelo per scoprire, se riuscirà a salvaguardare la sua ghianda (non si è accorto di aver effettivamente "cacciato" una mandorla). Nel frattempo ho scalpellato i cubetti di ghiaccio, in modo che scappi il più velocemente possibile ... continuerà ...

The trickiest part was getting the ice not to move.

For this weeks (15-Feb-2021) Macro Mondays 'In ice' theme, I froze a few things in an ice tray, took a few photos and ended up loving the contrast between these two frozen segments next to each other.

 

Photo is just over 3cm across.

Extension tubes used to get up-close.

Flickr Community;

It's Valentine Day and tomorrow's Macro Mondays theme is "In Ice". The small roses from my wife's beading stash are still on my workspace from the Looking Close ... on Fridays "Rose" theme so why not some red roses frozen In Ice?

 

Again, the Roses are some 11 - 12 mm in width so I decided to mount the 100mm Macro lens on extension tubes to capture images as the ice melted. These were captured as the edges of the petals became free of the ice cube.

I think some people are far too precious with their photographic equipment. To me it's just a tool and it goes where I go, rain or shine....or ice. OK, I wouldn't say I abuse it, while some may say I do, but no cameras were hurt in the making of this photo. Which I'm doing only for the people at the Macro Mondays group who, this week, have demanded a photo of an object "in ice". This shot is just a trial sample, but I shall refine it to the Macro Mondays exacting standards. I must admit I am abandoning my previous effort of a foxglove flower in ice, for fear of triggering the group police to disqualify my shot on the basis that the frozen bit in the middle has become the subject with its bubbles, spikes and cracks and that is definitely verboten by the rules.

 

So here is my Olympus OM-1 dunked in a bucket of water and put in our freezer overnight. And only about 34mm across.

 

The first Macro Monday challenge I've had the chance to do for weeks!

 

Since I missed most chances to photograph our recent snow and ice, this was some compensation and I learnt how to make distilled water for clearer ice too. Bonus!

 

The frame is exactly 3 inches across.

I took the ice block out of the freezer and its container - and then forgot all about it. Little Bear still held firmly by ice though.

Macro Mondays: In ice

 

This little Stegosaurus has wandered too far north and into an ice field -- luckily, moss frozen in the ice provides at least a little sustenance.

 

Landscape is moss and wood in ice, with additional miniature ice cubes, on white paper. Toy Stego is about 1.25" across, frame is 3" across.

 

A 7-image focus-stacked composite of a square spiral pendant holder for gem stones, frozen in ice, taken for the Macro Mondays theme, "In Ice." The pendant holder has a width of one-inch. (Here is a full view of the subject)

 

Strobist info:

The subject was illuminated by two nikon SB900's and the blue LED of a Coast TZ10 Quad Color flashlight. The SB900's were placed 90° CL and CR, two-feet above and two-feet away from the subject, pointing down at 45°. The speedlights were fired in Manual mode @ 1⁄8 power through two Neewer 24" x 24" soft boxes. The TX10 was placed at 11 o'clock and exposed for four seconds.

 

The SB900's were triggered by three PocketWizard Plus X's.

 

Lens: Tokina AT - X M100 AF PRO D (AF 100mm f / 2.8 Macro).

My solid object in the ice is Scooter who is one of the Lakeshore Learning Materials kids shown on their catalog in 1992: blog.lakeshorelearning.com/2016/05/the-lakeshore-kids-story/

Shot for Macro Mondays, theme "InIce".

Have a nice Monday everybody

 

I first attempted this particular theme back in Feb 21 after a suggestion from Janet Benoy for a members choice - some interesting results thats for sure and patience was certainly needed

Created for Macro Mondays theme in ice.

HMM!

The theme of the week, "Vibrant Minimalism". HMM!

The small Meyer lemon from my garden is partially revealed because it floated in the water in this 3 inch, 75 mm, glass rameklin. However, it is clearly in ice.

The ice looks like dry ice, due to my using portrait mode with studio light my iPhone 12 Pro Max when shooting this shot.

Macro Mondays 16.6.2025 "Frozen in ice"

Macro Mondays theme: In Ice

 

I promised I would plan ahead the last time we did this theme. I read the article and selected some tiny plants from the garden and froze them in some paper containers. Then I forgot about them. I managed a decent shoot this morning and spent a couple of hours struggling with BAD PANDA.

 

Here I am at last.

 

I'm uploading the two best shots. This one is the tiny leaves from my Japanese maple, Beni Maiko, that translates to "red haired dancing girl".

 

The other one (below) is a dandelion and an ivy leaf. I think it looks more like a dancing girl than the maple.

Macro Mondays-Frozen Inice

I recon Austin Powers from the swinging 1960s needs to be thawed out again, defrosted from his cryogenic tube and ordered to save the Earth 🌍 again, but this time it's not Dr. Evil, it's Mr. Evil Covid instead, this seems a good idea to me considering the epidemic & global warming and general mess we all are living with .... etc.

well I do have a vivid imagination .... 😂 😹 ....

 

"Oh behave"

"Groovy baby"

 

Love & amp; Peace 💟

 

For the making of this image I took a small empty water bottle, then cut off the neck section.

Then I took a shiny plastic rose and inserted this into the bottle, topped off with some water and popped it into the freezer.

 

The next day I used a glove an scissors to cut through the plastic bottle to reveal a frozen tube all frosty, I rubbed the outside to reveal the encased shiny captive delight.

 

I then placed this tube in the sunlight and began some differing macro shots, then after some alterations and enhancing on the computer .... there we have it my frozen image.

 

I could see a sort of pareidolia face appearing inside the icy image, being inside a tube it reminded me somewhat of "Austin Powers" before being defrosted after being cryogeniclly frozen since the swinging sixties.

From the film: International Man of Mystery.

 

Thank you so much everyone who took the time to view, comment or favour my image, it's really appreciated! 😊
