" There's a possibility,

There's a possibility,

All that I had, was all I'm gonn' get.

 

mmmmmmm......

 

There's a possibility,

There's a possibility,

All I'm gonn' get is gone with your stare.

All I'm gonn' get is gone with your stare.

 

So tell me when you hear my heart stop

You're the only one who knows.

Tell me when you hear my silence.

There's a possibility I wouldn't know .. "

🎶 Sorry about the earworm 🎶…..

It was as either this one or the mini Oreos and the Cookie Monster singing in my head won out!!

 

The Macro Mondays theme for tomorrow, 11/7, is biscuits, or - on this side of the pond - cookies. These are one of the six varieties I bought to photograph. Luckily there is someone who will help eat them, to save me from myself… giggling.

 

Btb, I’ll put up a size verification in a bit- each letter is just one inch square.

 

…….💙🍪HMM🍪💙

HMM- this is a possibility for the theme of beverage for 1/11. This us the one I’m going with bc I like the colorful tree bokeh. This portion of the glass is just under two inches.

I found this area last week on recon for winter shot possibilities.

 

This past weekend we got our first snow.

I went back 3 times to check lighting as I did some back road snow shots. Pays to research - as I got lucky - there were more deer but the other 2 spooked - this doe was too busy eating to care.

HMM- the theme for today, 11/2, is halloween. and this possibility is a portion of a steampunk skull. will put an establishing shot in the first comment box so you can see what it looks like in its entirety.

This Mandarin Duck has been spotted on and off at Burnaby Lake Regional Park in the suburbs of Vancouver for about 3 years. Nobody really knows where it came from. One possibility is that it might have escaped or been released. The species is native to East Asia where it is typically migratory. There are some feral populations in the USA and Europe. This particular male hangs out with the Wood Ducks, a cousin species, at the park and is courting one of the females who bear similarities with female Mandarin ducks. I don't know if they can hybridize. This duck sure draws the photographers' attention particularly at this time of year with its dazzling breeding plumage.

 

Ce Canard Mandarin est fréquemment observé au Parc Régional du Lac Burnaby en banlieue de Vancouver depuis environ 3 ans. Personne ne sait vraiment d'où il vient. Une possibilité est qu'il ait été relâché ou se soit échappé. C'est une espèce typiquement migratoire qui est native de l'Asie de l'Est. Il y a des populations férales aux Etats-Unis et en Europe. Au Parc, ce mâle socialise avec les Canards Branchus, une espèce cousine, et courtise une des femelles Branchus qui sont semblables aux femelles Mandarins. J'ignore si l'hybridation est possible. Ce canard attire toujours l'attention des photographes surtout à ce temps-ci de l'année quand il a repris son plumage nuptial éblouissant.

 

This is what the great Greek composer Vangelis said about his pioneer electronic music work. Exactly the same is true about digital abstract art.

They might be going where there are no snapping turtles. The one in the lead has already had a good part of its tail bitten off. Another possibility is that it lost its tail to a raccoon or an otter, a family of which I've watched in this wetland.

The 1969 Town Lake Gazebo was the first public structure built in the effort to beautify the south shore of Town Lake (now Lady Bird Lake), which was created after the construction of Longhorn Dam on the Colorado River in 1960. The Austin Chapter of the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC), established in the 1950s for women working in the construction industry, spearheaded and raised funds for the project. Thirty-five visionary women in Austin saw the possibility of putting something on the shores for all to enjoy and dedicate it to the construction industry.

 

Inspired by the then First Lady of the United States Lady Bird Johnson, a national leader in environmental beautification and later the honorary co-chair of the Town Lake Beautification Committee, the Austin chapter began planning and raising money for the structure in 1965. Almost 100 contractors and suppliers enthusiastically supported the gazebo project with donations of materials and labor. The gazebo was dedicated in June 1970, and then in 1984, the structure was named for Fannie Davis, a founding member of the Austin chapter of NAWIC.

 

The gazebo was designed by architect J. Sterry Nill to resemble an inverted morning glory flower. The design reflects the diverse architectural trends of the 1960s, and playfully references Frank Lloyd Wright's geometric experimentation and combination of organic material with modern forms and the rustic park architecture found in central Texas.

i walked to the park, assuming the waning light was too dim for photography. yet i found a puddle softly illuminated with sunset light. another reminder: there’s possibility in every moment and beauty need not be grand.

Thank you for looking - appreciate it!

A possibility for the Macro Mondays theme of flexible. There are three possibilities- now to dither, although I’m leaning toward the silver links bracket with the little red heart bead…..

…..Dithering done- decided on this one bc I haven’t had one with a bit of blue for a couple of weeks.. grin

Weather forecast on a knife blade. On a Damascus steel knife blade, to be precise. Not what I initially had in mind, but that so often is the case when it's one of the "MM themes of the 1000 possibilities". Usually, for such a wide theme, I only have a few vague ideas what I could do for it, and the end result is pretty much a random surprise of what looks, firstly, most interesting through the macro lens, and, secondly, best as a photo, of course. Also, what is easy when it's not asked for - such as finding interesting patterns - becomes nearly impossible when it's required: patterns positively seemed to escape me as I went looking for them around the apartment ;-) And when I saw the knife in the kitchen (I hadn't even considered it as a possibility) I just thought "OK, that's probably very boring, but I'll give it a try." As for the "macro lens surprise", that was that not only did the banding typical for Damascus steel looked like waves (often an intended effect, but I only learned about that when I did my research on Damascus steel for the description and the tags), but those scratches from sharpening the knife that you can see in the upper part of the image also looked like heavy rain. And here it was, unfolding before my eyes: the high seas tempest.

 

The setup for the photo was as simple as it gets: I simply propped the knife, sharp side of the blade up, against a jar of sugar (my photo studio also doubles as breakfast and dinner table), both of it sitting on top of a heavy book to give it the same height as my camera on its small table top tripod, positioned one LED lamp (warm light) at the side of the table and grabbed my LED torch (cold light) to illuminate the blade from above (which also added the ever so slight 3D effect on the upper part of the blade), enabled the in-camera focus-stacking function, and hit the shutter button. I shot three focus stacking sequences of different parts of the knife of which this looked best.

 

Processing steps: The cold / warm light effect is something I get quite often when I use different light sources as above mentioned. It even works with one artificial light source (provided it gives warm light) and daylight from the window. Here I liked the split tone effect very much because I think it adds more depth to image. I wish I could have achieved the vivid colours you see here entirely by the use of light and the use of a colour filter (warm-cold or a combination of a cooling and a warming filter), but I've only recently considered to buy a few photo filters to improve my landscape photography, and since a good filter is expensive, I think I will buy one or two more versatile filters first before checking out the more exotic colour filters. So the colour enhancement here was done in Lightroom, where I tweaked the saturation and luminance of the blue, yellow and orange tones, and then in Nik's Color Efex, where, as final touch, I applied a Bi-color filter. I hope that these processing steps are deemed OK according to the new MM rules regarding the editing of an MM shot. I also did some sharpening and de-noising in Topaz Sharpen AI ("Focus" yielded the best result).

 

HMM, Everyone, and have a beautiful and safe week ahead!

More drama on the milkweed. I was just looking for photo possibilities of my ladybugs chasing down aphids. There's a trail of them far right, in fact. Rather, one of these paper wasp creeps came through and made a big score. I didn't know I had any active Monarch caterpillars, but the wasp snagged this one and devoured it before my eyes. Now I really don't like them.
