PENTAX Q
PENTAX-05 TOY LENS TELE 18mm f:8
The PENTAX Q "Toy lenses" are tiny manual-focus primes with a fixed aperture. They were rather misunderstood and never caught on. I think that's a pity. If one takes the trouble, they can give beautiful results. They are NOT toys, and are anything but simple to use well. As with any equipment, you have to recognise the possibilities and respect the limitations.
With its focal-length equivalent to that of a 100mm lens on 35mm film, the TOY LENS TELE makes a nice little portrait lens with a pleasingly soft rendition.
Length (both species) : about 19 cm (7 inches)

Taking time to reflect at Sharpness........
HESTIA (IMO 9411783, MMSI 246827000) is a General Cargo Ship built in 2011 (15 years old) and currently sailing under the flag of Netherlands. Her length overall (LOA) is 88.97 meters and her width is 11.8 meters.
EEMS DOLLARD (IMO 9278337, MMSI 245497000) is a General Cargo Ship built in 2003 (23 years old) and currently sailing under the flag of Netherlands. Her length overall (LOA) is 88.78 meters and her width is 12.5 meters.

EEMS-DART (IMO 9195640, MMSI 236453000) is a General Cargo Ship built in 2002 (23 years old) and currently sailing under the flag of Gibraltar. Her length overall (LOA) is 88.6 meters and her width is 12.6 meters.
The North American Beaver is the world’s second largest rodent, weighing up to 32kg (70lbs), and can reach a length of 1 to 1.2 meters (3 to 4ft) including their tail. Their tail, which is flat and paddle-like, can be up to 30 cm (12 inches) long.
They have stout bodies with large heads, long chisel-like incisors, brown or gray fur, hand-like front feet, webbed back feet, and tails that are flat and scaly. Beavers can be found in a number of freshwater habitats, such as rivers, streams, lakes and ponds. They are herbivorous, consuming tree bark, aquatic plants, grasses and sedges.
Beavers can hold their breath for up to 15 minutes underwater. They also have a transparent third eyelid which protects their eyes when swimming underwater. They have ears, although they are relatively small. They are adapted for underwater life, allowing them to hear effectively both in air and water. In fact, their hearing is better underwater, as water is a better conductor of sound than air.

Le castor d'Amérique du Nord est le deuxième plus grand rongeur au monde, pesant jusqu'à 32 kg (70 lb), et peut atteindre une longueur de 1 à 1,2 mètre (3 à 4 pieds), queue comprise. Sa queue, plate et en forme de pagaie, peut atteindre 30 cm (12 pouces) de long.
Il a un corps trapu avec une grosse tête, de longues incisives en forme de ciseau, une fourrure brune ou grise, des pattes avant en forme de main, des pattes arrière palmées et une queue plate et écailleuse. On trouve le castor dans de nombreux habitats d'eau douce, tels que les rivières, les ruisseaux, les lacs et les étangs. C'est un herbivore qui se nourrit d'écorce d'arbre, de plantes aquatiques, d'herbes et de carex.
Le castor peut retenir sa respiration jusqu'à 15 minutes sous l'eau. Il possède également une troisième paupière transparente qui protège ses yeux lorsqu'il nage sous l'eau. Il possède des oreilles, bien que relativement petites. Ils sont adaptés à la vie sous-marine, ce qui leur permet d'entendre efficacement aussi bien dans l'air que dans l'eau. De fait, leur ouïe est meilleure sous l'eau, car l'eau est un meilleur conducteur du son que l'air.
The species reaches a body length of 5–7 millimetres (0.20–0.28 in). Most females are slightly larger than males. In these polymorphic insects, the coloration of the body is very variable (about 20 different colors are known). Usually, they are yellowish, brownish, or black, with brighter patches on a dark background, but also with dark markings on a lighter background.
The most common modes of locomotion are running and flying, but the most striking is their strong jumping ability, which is useful for escaping from predators. When jumping, the hind leg tarsal spines and spine hairs are embedded into the material the animal is jumping from, typically a plant, and provide the purchase needed for a lateral jump - confirmed with scanning electron micrographs. X-ray spectroscopy revealed that the darker coloured sclerotized tips of the spines, the last 6/100ths of a millimetre or so, contain zinc.
Eggs are white with an orange spot; this spot becomes darker and larger if the egg is fertilised, approximately 1mm long and 0.3mm wide. The larvae, also called nymphs, hatch after about 20 days and develop through five stages, known as instars.
The larvae are well known for the self-generated foam nests which can be observed during spring in meadows (especially on cuckoo flowers, Cardamine pratensis, and broom, Genista, species). The larvae in the foam nests are largely protected from predators and also get the necessary moisture for the appropriate development and temperature, so their mortality remains low even in bad weather. The larval stage lasts about 50 days. The adults leave the foam nest only when it is completely dried. This takes about ten days. The females mate soon after.
Froghoppers are polyphagous, their host plant specificity is low, so that they can feed on a variety of plants, mainly grasses (Poaceae species), reed plants (Juncaceae species), herbs and sometimes trees (including the olive tree, where the species has been identified as spreading Xylella fastidiosa, the bacterium associated with Olive quick decline syndrome). They have been identified on over 170 host plants.
Length : about 24 cm (9.5 inches)

The Pin-tailed whydah (Vidua macroura) is a small songbird with a conspicuous pennant-like tail in breeding males. It is a resident breeding bird in most of Africa south of the Sahara Desert.
The pin-tailed whydah is 12 - 13 cm in length, although the breeding male's tail adds another 20 cm to this. The adult male has a black back and crown, and a very long black tail. The wings are dark brown with white patches, and the underparts and the head, apart from the crown, are white. The bill is bright red. The female and non-breeding male have streaked brown upperparts, whitish underparts with buff flanks, and a buff and black face pattern. They lack the long tail extension, but retain the red bill. Immature birds are like the female but plainer and with a greyish bill.
This beautiful male Pin-tailed Whydah was seen singing in a light rain, displaying its breeding plumage and was captured during a photography safari on a game drive in Nairobi National Park, Kenya.

Arctic terns are medium-sized birds. They have a length of 28–39 cm (11–15 in) and a wingspan of 65–75 cm (26–30 in).
They are mainly grey and white plumaged, with a red/orange beak and feet, white forehead, a black nape and crown (streaked white), and white cheeks. The grey mantle is 305 mm (12.0 in), and the scapulae are fringed brown, some tipped white. The upper wing is grey with a white leading edge, and the collar is completely white, as is the rump. The deeply forked tail is whitish, with grey outer webs.
Arctic terns are long-lived birds, with many reaching fifteen to thirty years of age. They eat mainly fish and small marine invertebrates. The species is abundant, with an estimated two million individuals. While the trend in the number of individuals in the species as a whole is not known, exploitation in the past has reduced this bird's numbers in the southern reaches of its ranges.
The Arctic tern has a continuous worldwide circumpolar breeding distribution; there are no recognized subspecies. It can be found in coastal regions in cooler temperate parts of North America and Eurasia during the northern summer. During the southern summer, it can be found at sea, reaching the northern edge of the Antarctic ice.[10]
The Arctic tern is famous for its migration; it flies from its Arctic breeding grounds to the Antarctic and back again each year. The shortest distance between these areas is 19,000 km (12,000 mi). The long journey ensures that this bird sees two summers per year and more daylight than any other creature on the planet.
One example of this bird's remarkable long-distance flying abilities involves an Arctic tern ringed as an unfledged chick on the Farne Islands, Northumberland, UK, in the northern summer of 1982 that reached Melbourne, Australia in October, just three months after fledging – a journey of more than 22,000 km (14,000 mi).
Another example is that of a chick ringed in Labrador, Canada, on 23 July 1928. It was found in South Africa four months later.

After not finding the orb weaver spiders out when I went back to the park I finally went to the second pond size lake covered in duckweed. Dozens of very tiny new frogs all along the shore. Most took off but did get a few. Sorry for so many frog photos, no more for awhile, I promise. :) All different ones. Had many not in focus. These are extremely tiny, only 2-3" in length at most. Took another very quick walk at the park before more severe weather forecast tonite.
Mallard (female).
18 to 27 inches in length. The male has a green head, white neck ring, chestnut breast and a grayish body. Speculum metallic purplish blue, bordered in front and back with white. The female is mottled brown with a white tail and purplish-blue speculum. The bill is mttled orange and black.
They inhabit ponds, lakes and marshes. Semi-domesticated birds may be found on almost any body of water.
They range from Alaska east to Quebec and south to southern California, Virginia, Texas and northern Mexico. They winter throught the United States south to Central America and the West Indies. They are also in Eurasia.

One source says the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains range is about 1,000 km (620 mi) in length. Its highest point is 7,090 m (23,260 ft) located 100 km (62 mi) to the northwest of Lhasa. The range is parallel to the Himalayas in the Transhimalayas, and north of the Brahmaputra River. [3] Another source says the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains extend 460 miles (740 km) from Nyêmo County in the west to Ranwu County (the southwestern part of Baxoi County) in the east.
Its highest peak is Mount Nyenchen Tanglha (Nyainqêntanglha Feng) at 7,162 metres (23,497 ft).[4]
The southern side of the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains is precipitous, and falls by around 2,000 metres (6,600 ft), while the northern side is fairly level and descends about 1,000 metres (3,300 ft). Most of the mountains are below 6,500 metres (21,300 ft).[5] They contain 7080 glaciers covering an area of 10,700 square kilometres (4,100 sq mi).[4]
The Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains have an average latitude of 30°30'N and a longitude between 90°E and 97°E. Together with the Gangdise Shan located further west, it forms the Transhimalaya [a] which runs parallel to the Himalayas north of the Yarlung Tsangpo River.
The Drukla Chu river rises in the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains, where it is called the Song Chu river, and joins the Gyamda Chu river. The combined rivers run about 100 kilometres (62 mi) southeast to the Yarlung Tsangpo river.

The coal tit is 10–11.5 cm in length, and has a distinctive large white nape spot on its black head. The head, throat and neck of the adult are glossy blue-black, setting off the off-white sides of the face (tinged grey to yellow depending on subspecies) and the brilliant white nape; the white tips of the wing coverts appear as two wingbars. The underparts are whitish shading through buff to rufous on the flanks. The bill is black, the legs lead-coloured, and irides dark brown.
The young birds are duller than the adults, lacking gloss on the black head, and with the white of nape and cheeks tinged with yellow.
While searching for food, coal tit flocks keep contact with incessant short dee or see-see calls. The species' song – if "song" it can be called – is a strident if-he, if-he, if-he, heard most frequently from January to June, but also in autumn. The song resembles that of the great tit, but much faster and higher in pitch.[11] One variant of this song ends with a sharp ichi. North African birds also have a currr call similar to that of the European crested tit (Lophophanes cristatus) which is not found in Africa.

Family: Threskiornithidae.
Length: 80 to 90cm Wingspan: 1.2 to 1.35m Weight: 1 to 1.5kg
Lifespan: 25 to 30 years Status Endangered.
Adults are seen all year round in Southern Spain.
There are six species of Spoonbills, worldwide. This being the Eurasian Spoonbill and it is now considered an endangered species. Like most other species of birds that are considered endangered being mainly due to lack of suitable habitats. The Eurasian spoonbill is mainly found in Eastern European countries.
Nesting: Spoonbills are monogamous and will usually stay together for life. 3 to 4 eggs are laid between April to July. Nest is usually a platform of sticks and reed stems, sometimes taken from an old nest. The female mainly constructs the nest by interlocking the sticks, into a shallow bowl shape. The main mortality rate of chicks is not due to predation but to the lack of food, leading to starvation. Both parents will feed the young by regurgitating the food. The young birds bill does not fully develop into a spoon shape, until they become adults.
Feeding: Will submerge the spoon shaped bill partially open, sweeping it through the water to catch fish, crustaceans and molluscs as they wade slowly forward, in shallow water.
Habitat: Seen feeding on Salt Pans and coastal marshes, but seems to prefer fresh water lakes and other areas of shallow water with plenty of reeds especially at nesting times.

The gray whale (Eschrichtius robustus), also known as the grey whale, is a baleen whale that migrates between feeding and breeding grounds yearly. It reaches a length of 14.9 meters (49 ft), a weight of up to 41 tonnes (90,000 lb) and lives between 55 and 70 years, although one female was estimated to be 75–80 years of age. The common name of the whale comes from the gray patches and white mottling on its dark skin. Gray whales were once called devil fish because of their fighting behavior when hunted.
The gray whale has a dark slate-gray color and is covered by characteristic gray-white patterns, which are scars left by parasites that drop off in its cold feeding grounds. Individual whales are typically identified using photographs of their dorsal surface, matching the scars and patches associated with parasites that have either fallen off or are still attached. They have two blowholes on top of their head, which can create a distinctive heart-shaped blow at the surface in calm wind conditions.
Gray whales measure from 4.9 m (16 ft) in length for newborns to 13–15 m (43–49 ft) for adults (females tend to be slightly larger than adult males). Newborns are a darker gray to black in color. A mature gray whale can reach 40 t (44 short tons), with a typical range of 15–33 t (17–36 short tons), making them the ninth largest sized species of cetacean.
A close-up of a gray whale's double blow hole and some of its encrusted barnacles.
Notable features that distinguish the gray whale from other mysticetes include its baleen that is variously described as cream, off-white, or blond in color and is unusually short. Small depressions on the upper jaw each contain a lone stiff hair, but are only visible on close inspection. Its head's ventral surface lacks the numerous prominent furrows of the related rorquals, instead bearing two to five shallow furrows on the throat's underside. The gray whale also lacks a dorsal fin, instead bearing 6 to 12 dorsal crenulations ("knuckles"), which are raised bumps on the midline of its rear quarter, leading to the flukes. This is known as the dorsal ridge. The tail itself is 3–3.5 m (10–11 ft) across and deeply notched at the center while its edges taper to a point.

It consists of nailed plates, almost all of oak. Its dimensions are 22 meters in length by 5 of sleeve, with a mast of about 9-10 meters. With a sail of approximately 90 m², the ship could reach a speed of 10 knots. It had room for 30 rowers (each side of the ship reveals 15 holes for the oars). In addition there is a large helm and an iron anchor. The bow and stern of the ship are sculpted in an elaborate way, in a style that has been called "de Oseberg". The ship was built in 820 and was used for its main function for several years before serving as a grave. Although suitable for navigation, the ship is quite fragile, which suggests that it should be used only for trips along the coast.

Con una vela de aproximadamente 90 m², el barco podía alcanzar una velocidad de 10 nudos. Tenía cabida para 30 remeros (cada lado del navío revela 15 huecos para los remos). Además se encuentra un amplio timón y un ancla de hierro. La proa y la popa del navío están esculpidas de forma elaborada, en un estilo que se ha dado en llamar "de Oseberg". El barco se construyó en 820 y fue utilizado para su función principal durante varios años antes de servir como sepultura. Aunque apto para la navegación, el barco es bastante frágil, lo que hace pensar que debía utilizarse sólo para trayectos por la costa.
