The star is held together by putty, but I still think it's awesome.

Micro version of Ed Diment's Eisen Eagle, one of my favorites dating back to my emergence from my dark ages.
I built this for Mike Yoder's fanboy contest on CSF the night before I left for my parents' house. I didn't have time to photograph it, so I brought it along and then what do I do? Why, forget about it, of course. It may be too late to enter in the contest, but here it is.

Alright, Irene...your skin pore challenge...has been met, and conquered...there it is, right in the center of the photo! Booya! :-D

Technical crap: Nikon D3000 (entry level camera); kit lens which ain't near fast enough (18-55mm zoom, not even a prime lens); 3 extension tubes; light provided by ambient room light, overhead ceiling light, table lamp on nightstand, and a flashlight aimed on her skin; HANDHELD, Booya! Manual focus. Ramped up the ISO and the exposure compensation and hoped for the best. :)
(You know how hard it is to shoot this kind of crap and stay in focus when somebody's breathing?! LOL)

Thanks to the Beloved for putting up with me while I took numerous shots, holding a flashlight on herself to augment ambient and other room lighting, and laughing with me while I cracked completely up several times! It's hilarious to have a lens pointed about a 1/2-inch away from your face! LOL

Here you can see the rarest of all Star Trek Micro Machine sets, Collections XV and XVI - with the Bajoran Solar Sailor, Caretaker Array, and Kazon Torpedo. Packaging is in near-mint condition. I paid over $200 for both sets on E-Bay.
Little bit of randomness I built last weekend. This was the first time I actually used the Maersk blue parts from the train I bought several years ago.
Seems like the square crew section needs to be longer. If I get the motivation I might play with that.
On the 17th September 2018 I drove to the Haynes International Motor Museum at Sparkford near Yeovil in Somerset, it contains over 400 cars and motorcycles and a collection of other Automobilia.

This "cupcake" won't be long for this world, that's for sure.
I work about three blocks away from this bakery, and this is the first time since I started my job one and a half years ago that I walked into this place. My dessert radar was clearly busted big time.
(Nikon D40 DSLR + 20 year old Micro-Nikkor 105mm f2.8. Used a wickedly-hot halogen shop light bounced off stained wood cabinetry to the left -- this is where the orange hue came from; the whole room was lit-up by big windows behind and to the left. I also cranked-up exposure and black-point settings in Aperture 2)

*They may look like monsters from a horror film, but these tiny creatures
inhabit our homes, clothes and even our bodies. A new book, 'Micro
Monsters', showcases some of the planet's most horrible insects and
microscopic beasts. British author and trained zoologist, Tom Jackson, spent
three months compiling the images in the book. Scientists coated the tiny
creatures in gold, froze them in liquid nitrogen and fired a beam of
electrons at the subjects from a scanning electron microscope to reveal the
incredible detail*

*"I wanted to get together all the most gruesome and beastly pictures I
could," said 38 year-old Tom from Bristol. "This book shows children
everything that's around them at home, the garden and the playground."*

that show the intricate details of their eyes, mandibles and even the hairs
on their heads," said Tom*

subjects. Electrons have shorter wavelengths than lights waves so smaller
objects can be captured.*
