My last snap from 2021 (only 9 days behind now...) and taken through a Perspex art display down on Newcastle's Quayside. Processed in Affinity Photo and DXO Nik Collection Color Efex Pro 4.HSS everybody! :)
For Macro Mondays - Handmade
From when Di was still able to make jewellery. She made this butterfly to decorate a small trinket box for our eldest daughter. It measures 2 inches x 2 1/3 inches. Made of wire soldered together with beads and coloured perspex. The body is a piece of solder.
Happy Macro Monday!
It was difficult to get the shells to balance on the lolly stick. It was even more difficult to stop the dust accumulating on the perspex.
Have a great Monday Folks.

While meandering around the backstreets of Vieux Nice (Old Nice) I passed this cafe where everything was red including the walls and the red perspex roof which suffused the whole cafe in a lovely hue of red. It was way over the top and demanded to be
photographed :-)
"We are the Ovaltinees, little girls and boys". Anyone else remember the jingle that went with the advert?
This tiny toy truck measures 2.5 inches and I notice can reach a top speed of 12 miles per hour.
Have a great Monday folks.
Nine, sadly empty, cup cake cases reflected onto perspex. Slight touch up in Luminar using an adjustment layer to enhance the brightness of the reflection.
Have a great Monday folks.
Overcome with curiosity, Brian thoughtlessly opened the box, only to realise his mistake too late, having released sickness, death and evil into the snail world.
The story of Pandora's Box originates from Greek mythology and has come to refer to doing something that will cause many unforeseen problems.
For Macro Mondays theme 'Vintage'. This is an antique powder compact passed on to me from my mother. From a little research, it seems to be of Victorian vintage, made using the ormolu technique of gilding with gold. A piece of blue paper was set up behind the sheet of reflective Perspex and a headtorch was shone on the blue paper to provide the background light. Some cotton wool was placed inside the box for a mysterious appearance. The image was cropped to be within the MM size limit.
No snails were harmed in the making of this photograph.
Spiral Paper. Wound a strip of A4 paper around a Biro, Then lit it with Adaptalux Studio lighting arms from behind, on a black perspex sheet.
A tiny feather reflected in black Perspex - this is a far better surface for reflections than a mirror as you avoid the double reflection due to the two surfaces of the mirror (the silvered bottom and the top glass) - but it scratches easily and is a dust magnet!
For Macro Mondays theme 'Blue'.
The image was done as a 14-shot focus stack of a single forget-me-not flower, 7mm across, using my Raynox DCR-250 mounted on my macro lens.
For 'Macro Mondays' theme of 'Water'.
Just one drop of water on a clear sheet of perspex resting on two wooden blocks. The blocks are about 6 inches above the table-top on which there is a swatch of coloured papers.
Focused carefully on the drop to catch the refracted colours and texture of the papers.
This was made possible with an eighty year old four-legged stand on which the camera was perched to shoot vertically down.

The Panthéon is a magnificent mausoleum in the Latin Quarter of Paris. No Photoshop trickery here but three reflections of the dome don't make sense unless you are aware that the residential buildings along Place du Panthéon have a thick perspex protective layer placed over the historic windows on the ground floor to protect them.
The Hive is confusing when you first see it from afar. It's looks a jumbled mass of aluminium tubes with no particular structure until you get into it and then it becomes, well, something else entirely. It's 'powered' by a an actual beehive on the Kew Gardens site which has tiny sensors fitted throughout. When there is any bee activity in the hive the sensors pick it up and the location of the activity is transmitted to the equivalent location in this art installation and a light lights up. The sound of the actual beehive is also mimicked inside the metal hive. It sounds daft but when you are there and standing in the place it is magical. We were lucky that there were few people around and we were able to take our time and enjoy it for awhile.
This image is from inside the structure looking up (it's two levels!) through a perspex floor.

Thanks for viewing.
The mighty Clutha river was covered with fog which was spreading up valleys that flow down to the river. Aerial photography through a Perspex window at the rear of an 8 seater plane. Have a good Sunday.
This Porsche 917K, built for Porsche AG in 1969, was converted from the long tail specification in 1970 to 'K' specification and sold to Zitro Racing Cars, where it was painted in this white and blue livery.
Its best result was on the 1970 at the Autodrome de Linas-Monlthery (thirty km south of Paris), where it finished 3rd.
At one time, this car had chassis plate 024, but was subsequently corrected to its proper 025 designation.
In this shot, you can clearly see the periscope fitted to allow the driver to see what was behind, by looking up through a small perspex opening in the roof.

This image shows a small perfume bottle created at the Isle of Wight glassmaking studio. The glass is blown and shaped, then blasted with an atmosphere of stannous chloride in a fume cupboard. The piece is then left to anneal in an oven which results in the iridescent 'glaze' on the glass due to the stannous chloride coating.
Shot as a focus stack of fourteen images for Macro Mondays theme 'Bottle(s)'.
A glass or perspex sheild on one of our uni buildings is growing its own layer of creeper. Spotted while walking last Sunday morning.
This photo was taken in a darkened room using a perspex box filled with water which i made myself.
Setup was a single Canon speedlite 430ex at 1/3 power triggered remotely from the right hand side of the box.
Magic Lantern was used on the camera with the sound trigger option.
The photo was processed in lightroom 5 which included rotating it!

of the Rock. Rockefeller centre.
The lights are turned out in the lift going up to the top of this building,, the roof is see through and the lift shaft is lit up , making it a very futuristic journey.
This photo itself is not the best as it's taken through a perspex wall but it does give and idea of what it's like.
Empire State Building straight ahead.
The sea tunnel at the west end emerges on to an artificial island as part of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge in Zhuhai, south China's Guangdong Province. The total length of the undersea tunnel is 5,664 metres. The bridge & the tunnel were joined together on May 2, 2017.
This photo was spotted and taken from a Ngong Ping 360 gondola. This photo isn’t as good as it should be from a Sony RX 100 M7. The Perspex glass on the gondola was not clear due to smudges and there was a fair bit of refraction.

For Smile on Saturday theme 'Song Title'. The song was recorded by the Rolling Stones on their 1969 album Let it Bleed. The lyrics are loosely based on the life of the man who confessed to being the Boston Strangler.

A touch of film noir in the murky macro underworld. They look like they are making him an offer he had better not refuse...
For Macro Mondays theme 'Dots'. The image was done as a nine-shot focus stack and cropped to be just under 7cm.
No cowrie shells were harmed in the making of this photograph.
Obviously, snails don't possess a 'nose' as such, but they do have very sensitive olfactory receptors that enable them to detect a tasty hosta plant from half a kilometre away...
For Macro Mondays theme 'Powder'.
The snail is sitting on an ornate antique powder compact that was passed to me by my mother. I have no idea how old or valuable it might be - but it has clearly had a fair bit of use judging from the worn patches on the powder puff. There is even a tiny beveled mirror inside the lid, but it is badly pitted with age.
The euphanism 'to powder one's nose' likely dates from the early 20th century and was used by females when they wanted a polite expression to excuse themselves to go to the toilet.

I got Nina another kitten and she called him Mr Whiskers.
Mr Whiskers was a stray, caught, did time in foster care and eventually put into a Perspex holding cage at the local vets .
Mr Whiskers is a very lucky cat.
Have a wonderful day
The little snails feared their love was doomed - their parents didn't approve of their inter-species romance that (at best) could only produce sterile hybrids, thus making the pair reproductively isolated. But unlike their counterparts from West Slime Story, these lovers managed to elope...
For Macro Mondays theme 'Heart'. A short piece of covered wire was bent around to form half of a heart 4.5 cm wide. This was mounted on a sheet of black Perspex with a small amount of Blu Tack (removed in post-processing). Two little snails were placed onto the heart, one at each end, and allowed to crawl towards each other. It took a number of attempts with different snails - they were quite happy to crawl over each other, but I really wanted them to interact in some sort of 'meaningful' way!

A temporary installation in Fort Canning Park. Of a modern design and materials, it provided contrast to the existing old buildings and structures on the hill.
Taken from a small plane at 4000 ft (I could see the pilots altimeter). In the foreground the town of Balclutha with road and train bridges over the mighty Clutha river as is branches around the island of Inch Clutha on its way to the sea. In the distance the famous Nuggets rocks and lighthouse. Have a good weekend and thanks very much if you have time for a comment!
PS taken through perspex as I wasn't allowed to open the door.
Indefinite spaces S, 1963, Francisco Sobrino.
Sobrino left Spain for Buenos Aires in 1949, where he came into contact with the artists of the group Arte Concreto-Invención. He then moved to Paris in 1958, where he became one of the founding members of the Groupe de Recherche d’Art Visuel (GRAV) in 1960. This is also when he started making sculptures out of simple geometric forms, cut from tinted transparent plastic sheets and arranged in regular structures. The effects of combination and layering deliberately make it difficult to determine the position of each shape in space and in relation to each other.
Model in the visitor centre. This is a glass or perspex model, under lit with changing colours. I have brought down the background and table upon which it sits.
For some reason we have so many more bluebells than last year, perhaps it's because of the wet (relatively speaking) winter we have had. I wanted to photograph them in situ but I tried and failed miserably at getting down that low to take an interesting shot so these were cut and placed in a little vase which I put on top of the black induction hob in the kitchen. The light at the top left was a bit of an added bonus - it was a little bit of reflected light shining on the dark grey perspex splash back at the back of the hob.
I've been a bit unwell since the end of last week so haven't been on my computer much so sorry if i've been a bit 'hit and run'. I hope you all had a fabulous weekend and I wish you a great new week ahead
High above the Waipori river flying to work, as you do. The window in the Piper had some defects which added to the shot
It was the office Christmas party, and just like last year Brian is about to make a complete prat of himself. He thought he would like to chat up the new snail in the Accounts department - it wasn't until he got very close he realised his mistake. A few festive glasses of mulled wine too many perhaps.
For Macro Mondays theme 'Wrapping'. The Santa hat was taken from a tree ornament and stitched tighter (very fiddly!) so it would fit onto the snail harmlessly with a little Blu Tack to keep it in place. I had a larger snail that the hat would have fit perfectly without the need for fussy alterations, but it was fast asleep! The image has been cropped to be within the MM size limit.
