Watch yourselves if you go out on Halloween night, folks; on a night like this, you never know what might suddenly come hurtling out of the darkness! ;-)
HSS, Happy Halloween & Happy Shocktober!

Yes. Another fidget spinner. And another whirlgig? Well, not quite. It's a rotating spintop-like thingy that isn't a real spintop which I've placed onto a rotating fidget spinner. So what is this spintop that isn't a spintop? It's a transparent part of my moon globe which I don't use on the moon globe, because I use the moon globe as a decorative lamp hanging from the ceiling. That's where a moon belongs, doesn't it? When I disassembled the moon globe to turn it into a lamp I noticed that the small piece at the bottom (and does an orb have a bottom?) that connects the globe with its stand and makes the globe spin around its axis actually makes a perfect spintop. I've always wanted to use this thingy – how about "moonspin"? – for an MM theme. But how should I make the motion visible with an item that is transparent and runs so smoothly that you can hardly see any motion? I used my makeshift colour filters for some colourful accents and then I put the moonspin onto the non-rotating centre part of the rainbow coloured fidget spinner (and the fidget spinner also added some extra mortion blur). I got the best result when I waited until the moonspin got slower and began to wobble – just before it stopped to rotate.
This was actually only a test shot, but I didn't have much time to do more this weekend (or Monday), so I decided to stick to it, because while it's not exactly an original idea for the theme, I like the outcome. What I also like is how well the IBIS of my camera works, because this, again, is a handheld image. I didn't use an ND filter, because I've taken the capture last evening when it was already dark outside. Since it was only a testshot I also didn't bother to place the fidget spinner and the moonspin on / against a "proper" background, but just grabbed the black velvet adhesive foil I'd bought recently to repair the palm rest of my keyboard, propped it against a vase and put the spinning thingies in front of it. Which is the reason this moonspin rotates in Fuzziverse, because the velvet foil, while nice to the touch (as it should be), is fuzzy. Pleasantly fuzzy and soft for my hands, fuzziverse fuzzy in a macro image. Processed, as usual, in DXO PhotoLab 4, then I went into Luminar AI to enhance the details and saturation, and finally into Analog Efex – and the white vignette actually is an accident, but I think it added more depth to the image than a totally black background would have. I also like how the vignette highlighted some of the velvety fluff which added a nice starry look :)
The "moonspin" is 4,5 cm / 1,77 inches in diameter, so I had to crop the image quite considerably (and I really didn't like to do that this time, because I think the image looks nicer with more negative space, but it's "To be in MMs or not to be in MMs", isn't it?), so the width here is exactly 3 inches.
Happy Macro Monday, Everyone, and have a nice and safe week ahead!

Hogmanay, 30 december
Laat u meeslepen en feest tot het ochtendgloren! In Schotland beginnen de nieuwjaar festiviteiten met duizenden fakkeldragers die zich aansluiten bij de Up Helly Aa Vikings, doedelzakken en drums. Samen marcheren ze door het hart van Edinburgh met brandende fakkels. Het is een „rivier van vuur” over de historische Royal Mile naar Holyrood Park voor de finale en afsluiting van de feestelijkheden.
It's exactly a year today when we had to start working from home due to the impending impact of COVID. It's quite fitting that this week's theme is "Motion Blur" The past year has been a blur. We could however still focus on the good things. HMM!
A largely empty sky on a chilly April morning had just enough low horizon clouds to catch the early morning sun as it rose behind the South Pier

I never thought that this week theme (Motion blur) would be so hard.
I had many ideas, tried with many objects during the week, but had to return to my known fidge spinner, an object about which I have some control.
For many is only a toy, for other a way to relax. Mine is made of metal painted with raibow tones, and has 2 inches in size.

I went with a technical imperfection last week. I tried thinking outside the box. I didn't focus my lens. I made a really obnoxious custom white balance, I turned up my iso for some lovely grain and did some intentional motion blur with my shutter speed. My water became fire! Have a great Monday everyone!
