Droplets of cooking oil in a glass of water. Camera on tripod and self-timer used. Old lens reversed for macro shots. Off camera flash used - bounced off of various coloured cards. Colours adjusted on computer.
Strange, silly or obscure science fictiony sounding title chosen without any good reason.
All of my oil droppy images are now slopping about on Youtube. See,
Picture by me :)
On to our next challenge!!!
In an interstellar burst,
I am back to save the universe........
It’s all about Time!
It’s time I finally cruised on in with my own recolour of the Interstellar space ship designed by @aaronbrickdesigner

TimeCruisers is one of my top 5 fave themes. Not only because I grew up reading the comics. But the action and sense of adventure in the sets them selves led my childhood into many worlds of imagination. Also the absolute ridiculousness of parts used to make their wacky contraptions was hilariously fun!

They sleep and dream in the interstellar space. Connecting galaxies through cosmic energy. Midjourney v5.
I can't believe how long it's been since I updated the thread on this build- I've been working on it incrementally but totally neglected to keep things posted.
Regardless, here's where I'm at;
five of the modules had severe air cavities under the main layer of resin where it ought to have been solid, so rather than ignore the issue (as it wasn't visible, but was structurally questionable) I cut out those areas before levelling them out with resin and filler.
Then this evening I rewatched Interstellar itself whilst panelling the repaired modules.
Tomorrow I'm going to build the master for the spherical joints... my intention is to vacuum form them in halves to preserve the ability for disassembly.
Or almost no edits, this is actually the final version of my work with the canvases (the light layers), I also had to rework colors and the human at the giant red feet.
The Westin Bonaventure Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles was a location dressed to play NASA's rocket silo in the 2014 movie "Interstellar" (top). The shooting took place in the huge six level lobby of the hotel. Lucky me, I was attending a function at the hotel on one of the days the filming took place. This lobby is a maze of six levels of bridges, stairways, walkways, and elevators, so my knowledge of the exact areas that the shooting took place proved to be valuable for my photo hunt.
The hotel is located at 404 South Figueroa Street, Los Angeles.
Hitches rides on to interstellar asteroids, studying both the asteroid as well as surrounding space.
Quickie build.
Take a picture, it’ll last longer!
Webb recently observed interstellar object, 3I/ATLAS (now being referred to as a comet) with our Near-Infrared Spectrograph instrument as it passes through our solar system, adding to the data collected by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and the recently launched SPHEREx mission. This comet doesn’t pose a threat to Earth, but cataloging its journey before it disappears back into the cosmos allows us to better understand these interstellar objects. It is only the third confirmed interstellar object that we have observed passing through our solar system.

The distance from Earth to the nearest star is 6,250 times as great as the distance from Earth to Pluto. To make such astronomical differences comprehensible we can say that the difference between these two distances is like the difference between the circumference of Earth (25,000 miles) and 4 miles.
