Radiant

Many of our village residents have made an earlier start than usual to decorating our houses for Christmas this year. I think everyone is ready for some cheer. I can't help myself when I am in a store that sells lights. An extra set of lights seems to end up in the shopping trolley!

 

This is just the edge of our garden which has a row of candy canes surrounding the other lights. I thought I would try a low POV with the new f1.8 lens handheld.

i think this spider made it's web of hundreds of tiny ledlights.

A springtail (Bourletiella hortensis) at the crossroads of 3 colors.

As the world slumbers in darkness, I set out to create a nocturnal photo, weaving luminescent trails with my trusty eBay LED quality light. With each carefully choreographed movement, a captivating signature emerges, illuminating the night with an ethereal glow. The long exposure captures the dance of light and darkness, crafting a mesmerizing painting that seems to defy the limits of time. Behold the magic of light painting, an art form that embraces the darkness to reveal its own signature of brilliance.

 

If you cannot understand what int the world is the background or this image, to put you into the perspective, on the left bottom part of the photo, you can see a Dalmatian boat moored to a cement dock.

 

Location: Seget Vranjica, Dalmatia

 

Peace.

Not my favourite for MM, I found it difficult to find something really good for a macro foto, especially because I was on a holiday . But... here they are - my slimy little laughing Jacks.

Have fun with all the spiders, ghosts and mummies, dear Flickr friends. HMM

Kew Gardens is a botanic garden in southwest London that houses the "largest and most diverse botanical and mycological collections in the world" Founded in 1840, from the exotic garden at Kew Park in Middlesex, England, its living collections includes some of the 27,000 taxa curated by Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, while the herbarium, which is one of the largest in the world, has over 8.5 million preserved plant and fungal specimens. The library contains more than 750,000 volumes, and the illustrations collection contains more than 175,000 prints and drawings of plants. It is one of London's top tourist attractions and is a World Heritage Site.

 

The Palm House (1844–1848) was the result of cooperation between architect Decimus Burton and iron founder Richard Turner and continues upon the glass house design principles developed by John Claudius Loudon and Joseph Paxton. A space frame of wrought iron arches, held together by horizontal tubular structures containing long prestressed cables, supports glass panes which were originally tinted green with copper oxide to reduce the significant heating effect. The 19 metres (62 ft) high central nave is surrounded by a walkway at 9 metres (30 ft) height, allowing visitors a closer look upon the palm tree crowns. In front of the Palm House on the east side are the Queen's Beasts, ten statues of animals bearing shields. They are Portland stone replicas of originals done by James Woodford and were placed here in 1958.

There was a marriage ceremony in our neighbor's house and the house was beautifully decorated with small LED lamps. I loved it and decided to take some shots using 'intentional camera movement'(ICM).

  

Just a short intermission......and more interesting orchids to show.....hope you aren't getting bored....!

This isn't my regular kind of post here.😉 I just want to share with you my helping lights for macro photography. I watched a video last month of this tip and wanted to try it myself. It worked indoor for my last photos but I want to use it for outdoors. I used here a velcro wrap tie and some cheap mini led flashlight keychains an wrapped around my heavy used Canon 100mm f/2.8 lens. You can turn on/off the ones you need, add more lights or rotate the band around the lens to adjust the light position. Well, it worked for me and I'll post some macro photos from outdoors soon, too windy and cold now!!! (I already have a ring flash, too.)

Macro Mondays

A silver foil with dots, unexpected reflections

Found in the garden on the lawn when I was searching for B. hortensis after a lot of rain...

The bug liked my flash and was drying and warming up during the photoshoot. :-)

A lovely Magpie Inkcap amongst the Beech leaves in a Surrey woodland. I've been experimenting with portable LED lighting recently to help illuminate fungi in dark locations and it seems to work well.

Found in the park "Itterdal" in Opitter.

Found in the garden.

Just shake the ivy that has grown over the wall with the neighbors and the springtails come out. This is one of them.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

 

Such a common phrase these days....but has so much truth.....

 

It's in everything around us....but not always visible....unless we

really look for it.

 

In a Macro World...it's like a whole new world that opens it's doors

for us to marvel and wonder..........and realize the beauty in every tiny living thing.....even in a pesky weed like the dandelion....that we try so hard to irradicate........and like most weeds.....they are the strongest of any living thing on this beautiful planet.

 

Apparently made it to Explore......May 10, 2008......#406

 

I found this one in the forest at a very humid place. I would say it is Sminthurinus reticulatus, with a color that I am not used to this species.

Taken with Raynox 250 for close to 2:1 magnification.

This series of three pics for Christmas was taken much closer to home. Thought I'll quickly post them as it's already Christmas Day here. Happy Christmas everyone!

Between Podura aquatica I found only one Sminthurides sp. When there is one present then there must be more of them.

This is a female, I have not found a male yet...
