"Mirror is my best friend, because when I cry it never laughs." Charlie Chaplin
A clematis mirrored in my iPhone (which I subsequently dropped and shattered...but, hey, I kind of like the picture though I will probably never try that effect again!)

"And I love the thought of coming home to you
Even if I know we can't make it
Yes, I love the thought of giving hope to you
Just a little ray of light shining through"

The showmen of my city, financially shaken by the Corona crisis, have been allowed to set up a selection of their stalls and rides on the squares of the city center.
This vintage swing carousel reminds me of my childhood :))
... some minutes before I took this image the sky was 'burning' beautifully, but I couldn't be there fast enough
Editing: Affinity Photo with Color Efex Pro 4 Filter (layer with 75% coverage), HDR Efex Pro 2 filter (layer with 40% coverage and a layer mask to exclude the sky), replacing two little-ish parts of the image (merging) ... and then some more addtional editing in Affinity Photo (gradation, saturation, selective color correction, selective sharpening ...).
I am not completely happy with the result, but at some point you have to let go ... and I am still learning and I love to experiment ;))
Happy Sliders Sunday : ))

Die Schausteller meiner Stadt, die durch die Corona-Krise finanziell angeschlagen sind, haben die Erlaubnis erhalten, eine Auswahl ihrer Stände und Fahrgeschäfte auf den Plätzen des Stadtzentrums einzurichten.
Dieses Ketten-Karussell erinnert mich an meine Kindheit :)
Einige Minuten bevor ich dieses Bild aufnahm, 'brannte' der Himmel wunderschön, aber ich konnte nicht schnell genug dort sein
Einen schönen Rest-Sonntag euch allen :)
Homage to the vintage Autochrome and wet plate methods. This piece cannot be replicated as I ate the strawberry when I finished.

Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742-1799) was a German physicist. As a scientist, he was the first to hold a professorship explicitly dedicated to experimental physics in Germany. He also was a satirist and Anglophile.

Wild weather - par for he course in Iceland - the sea stacks at Vik in southern Iceland at sunrise. Rain coming in fast from the right hand side but the sun making a break through the clouds.
{Processed in LightRoom CC and Colour EFEX Pro 4 and noise reduction in Define2.} One of my favourite shots from the whole trip.
"I never found a companion that was so companionable as solitude." Henry David Thoreau
Don't agree with this as a rule, but being alone in a place of quiet is a nice respite from the noise of this world!

Tucked inside the medieval Portuguese castle of Montemor-o-Velho near Coimbra is a little church called Santa Maria da Alcacova. lnside this little church you will find a lovely old statue of the pregnant Madonna which radiates serenity and beauty - a gift to the world in these troubled times.

The spider was so tiny that I did not even see it when I took the capture. Taken at the Krumme Lanke in Berlin-Grunewald. The Krumme Lanke (krumm = curved, because of the lake's shape) is a beautiful lake surrounded by woodland, and a popular bathing lake. Most of the lakeside is fenced, nowadays, to protect vegetation, and wildlife. I got very close to the screw (what you can see of it
was about 1,5 to 2 cm / 0,59 to 0,78 inches; the image is cropped).
Das Spinnchen war so winzig, dass ich es erst am Monitor entdeckt habe. Aufgenommen an der Krummen Lanke (wie das vorherige Foto). Das Schräubchen am Zaun stand so ca. 1,5 bis 2 cm hervor, das Bild habe ich beschnitten.
Thank you for your kind comments, I appreciate every single one, and your faves! Vielen Dank für Eure tollen Kommentare und Faves!
A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone!
