Another late-model insurance write-off from November’s shoot at the Stockton junkyard. Nice coating of dew on this thing–it really helped to pick up the light painting nicely. I took advantage of the car’s intense natural color by using a warm-toned raw xenon flashlight on the body from the front and rear and a series of complimentary blue-gelled strobe pops from the far side. 190-second exposure.

Warning this is a freebie but it doesn't work quite right without the animation to move your arm out of the way.

 

Need to give credit where credit is do...

The Idea is Stolen from Mefo of YellowJester who upon seeing the ao thought that it would be great to create attachments to shove into where the missing appendage was.

Metallic Starling migrate from New Guinea to Far North Queensland each year, seeking optimal breeding conditions provided by the wet season. Upon arrival, they construct intricate communal nests in specific trees, with some locations hosting hundreds of nests, often built right on top of one another.

 

Come January, feeding of newly hatched chicks is in full swing, & the offspring are voracious feeders! Both parents are kept occupied foraging & serving up a smorgasbord of small fruits & insects for their fast-growing young. This Starling had plucked a species of cicada that I think might be a Black Tree-ticker (Birrima varians), a very hearty meal for its lucky offspring!

Nature is a fabulous artist that dare to push the boundary of possibility.

The Metallic Starling, Aplonis metallica also known as Shining Starling is a native of New Guinea and nearby Australasian islands, and also a limited area of north eastern Australia. This is a bird in the starling family Sturnidae. The adult has brilliant red eyes, a long tail and green-glossed black plumage. Immatures are pale below with dark streaks.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am addicted to three animals- peacocks, parrots and hummingbirds. Of the latter, my favorite is the broad bill. You will find several in my stream or on my website (more coming up soon too!) I love their amazing colors that shift in the light and their zippy personalities. Even the females carry a metallic green sheen.

I've been rather busy lately, but I will catch up.

We went to shoot flowers at the arboretum at Woodward Park in Tulsa. This is a really nice facility. It has lots of pathways with shady trees native to the state to enjoy. There are also gardens with an abundance of flowers to view and shoot. I have never seen a green bee before and had to stop and try to capture it. These guys are really quick and I shot it six times before I got lucky with this one. My dad was wanting to go to the next garden so I didn't have time to get a better one. Thanks for viewing hope you enjoy it as much fun as I had shooting it.

I couldn't help but notice the lovely bright and shiny metallic colours of these parked cars. The sunset behind the trees helped to emphasize these colourful cars.

Whut??? Y este modelo viejo que sebastian??? Duhg, bueno, estoy recuperando mi inspiración poco a poco, y si no tengo ganas de crear por ahora, sigo con ganas de ver figuras plegadas, y bueno, esta necesitaba ser plegada. La secuencia de plegado ya es "diagramable" y finalmente es un insecto metálico para mi colección, que no tenía... :S

Here's a better look of my metallic miniskirt. I love such shiny dresses, hence the happy smile on my face.

est. 2006, one of my favorite jordans of all times. I usually don't rock a sneaker the day after I cop but I made an exception with these. Damn it feels good to have a pair again.

Too early to pop this on a Monday morning... :)
