Ladybower Reservoir summer 2018. I had planned to photograph the sink holes but after such a long dry summer they were standing a metre or so above the water level, I had to be content with some general views...no wind at all also meant an LE wouldn't do too much...ah well...
You may think the Red Pin is Larger, Truth is they are the same size...............Perspective has created this illusion.

One of my attempts at the "Looking close... on Friday!" theme "A single Leaf".
Shot with a "Tomioka-Copal 82 mm F 4" (enlarging) lens on a Canon EOS R5.
Created for Mel/Lauraxfire who is doing the hard yards at the moment and to whose connection here on flickr has been my privilege.
Always wonderfully generous with a keen sense of humour,Mel's art which is always inspirational takes you on journeys never envisaged and is just an amazing experience to view ..!
This piece is inspired by the following quotation found on Mel's profile page...
(When the doors of perception are cleansed, man will see all things as they truly are, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern...William Blake 1793)

Just adding my thoughts of hope and strength to the many others wishing the same for you Mel.
All the best from down under......!

"There are things known and things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception"--- Aldous Huxley
There is a big difference between whether something is like that or whether you think something is like that. Much in our life is our own perception.
Depth perception is the ability to see the world in three dimensions and to perceive distance. Although this ability may seem simple, depth perception is remarkable when you consider that the images projected on each retina are two-dimensional.
