Scanned print.
I've done it again...
While the print was fixing I thought it was a good time to do some of the never ending dishes after an analog darkroom session. Ahh, that was nice with some warm water for my frozen fingers.
Ok, time to rinse the print and decrease the water temperature! And that was a big mistake... The warm water still in the hose was enough to melt the gelatin and make the tulips float away in the tray....
So I hereby present the melted gelatin mess as an "abstract" (sorry for the euphemism...).

Annie: I do not know! What a mess !!
Funny: This was the specter ??
Annie: Oh no !! I'm afraid!!!
messing up the chronology a bit, but here's one from today of these beautiful dragons. Inspired by some shots on Flickr I decided to head east to Essex after some of the Canvey Island babies, and was not disappointed, with dozens obligingly along various ditches, including a couple of pairs that were 'in cop'. Move over mixta's - the new kids on the block hit them for six, in my opinion.
Messing around with a B&W conversion.
As long as I own a Canon camera that will accept this lens, I will always own this chunk of glass. The Brick! Its always been a solid lens, no matter which body I have put it on. But this latest body, a R7, is probably the best one I've owned.
I just love the combo of this lens on this body.

This started out as just “messing about“ with a new brush set. But it was like a rabbit hole; I kept getting more ideas on how I could extend it, balance it, and finish it. In the end, I think it’s one of my most complex paintings yet. More than 10,500 strokes, and 18 hours of painting time according to Procreate statistics.
How do I put this. Its like this when I get bored I tend to head for the makeup and start messing around.
Yesterday I bought a dress for the summer, I think I mentioned it but then again I might not have, either way this is the dress in question, It all started tonight with me sorting an outfit for tomorrow and a trip down to London that ii will tell you about when I have done what I have to do. no I am going to see a doc.
Outfit sorted I then went to hair and what to do with it, I remembered I had some extensions and so tried them and played around with a few ideas. so I might have big hair tomorrow.
As you know once you have hair you have to have make and so this was another experiment. I haven't shaved since Sunday lunchtime and still haven't . Yep a little stubbly I am put that's the point in this exercise. the only makeup is a little foundation on my upper lip and around my chin area and I mean a little. then this was followed by powder a little bronzer and correcting powder, of course I've done lips and eyes.
I so so pleased with the result I really am. Sorry to keep on about recent change but its a big step and an important one for me. with luck it wont be long before I can do my makeup in a few moments. yeah I wish.
Anyway this is the result of my few hours messing around, bring on the summer :-)
It's not enough snow to majorly delay L517 but something else is afoot. Having a solo unit on L517 is extremely rare, as is running long hood forward. No doubt something bad happened with the lead unit requiring its setout somewhere along the way. The only good news this day was the ditchlights on the rear of the 8892 that allowed them to run at track speed, where the tonnage and grade permitted. The sectionman pauses while rummaging through the back of his truck to wave a greeting to the engineer.

Some of you have brought up the question about what happened to the spiders of frozen webs... I have no idea, never seen one next to these. Actually I'm glad I haven't ;D I prefer webs without spiders and with nice droplets instead.
Esta hormiga alada está estos días tras las lluvias y la salida del sol por todos lados en Aracena, estos especímenes están fotografiados en mi azotea, gracias a Manuel Baena de la Sociedad Andaluza de Entomología estoy en que es del Género Messor por su tamaño y cabeza roja creo que puede ser Messor barbarus aunque no tengo certeza. Miles de futuras reinas sin alas recorren calles y campos en busca de una ubicación para un nuevo hormiguero.
This winged ant is these days after the rains and the sunrise everywhere in Aracena, these specimens are photographed on my roof, thanks to Manuel Baena of the Andalusian Entomology Society I am in the genus Messor for its size and head red I think it can be Messor barbarus although I'm not sure. Thousands of future queens without wings run through streets and fields in search of a location for a new anthill.

I took a photo of my fish and chips, but it's not particularly exciting, so I've included my dessert instead! We rarely have a dessert these days, as I eat a lot of 'rubbish food' at home, but as it was my Mum's birthday...!
My choice here was mango and passion fruit mess, as I love meringue! Tastes marvellous, although it doesn't look a mess to me! (Only after I started eating it, lol!)
