Miss M: Well it can't look much worse that this! ... can it?
ICM, intentional camera movement, removes details not needed and simplifies the necessary elements. Color was distracting here so it went too. What's left are framing lines and patterns that contain the two walking figures. High contrast adds strength with good definition. Light reveals and hides in a wondrous way.

The Matryoshka Doll in Russian Culture. To non-Russians, the matryoshka, or nesting doll, is one of the most quintessential representations of traditional Russian peasant life. It appears to foreign eyes as a relic of quaint serf culture.
I must admit a certain fascination with antlers. In many ways they seem to be one of nature’s most wasteful luxuries. Many animals that have them spend untold amounts of energy growing them, only to have them fall to the ground at year’s end and have the process start anew. It isn’t simply the beauty of the form but also the progression of their growth that I find intriguing. Although these two are fine now, they may not be as friendly once autumn arrives.
A series of images from the total lunar eclipse of August 28, 2007 that I have combined into one image. I didn't really plan to do this ahead of time, so the shots aren't spaced chronologically terribly well (gap in time is different between some of the shots). But this was a fun and fairly easy to do. We had a wonderfully clear night and I could see the moon straight from the window...didn't even have to go outside!

Macro Mondays theme: Monday, September 18th theme - then and now, before and after, yesterday and today...
Tried a few things for this theme after rumaging through my little box of memorabilia - ie "STUFF" - my biggest problem was to get into the "3-inch rule" limit. Had to use a ruler to make sure I cropped to the 3" limit.
This image has a my old iPhone, an older flash and something you may not recognize - a disposable Flash Cube. These compact little pieces were developed in the 1960's by Kodak for their Instamatic series of cameras and with an adapter you could actually use them on SLR's. I tried to include the adapter, but couldn't get it in because of the 3" rule.
Happy Macro Monday to all ...
Punning Progressions.

Supersampler, Müller 400.
Epson Perfection V850 with Vuescan, SmartConvert and Lightroom.

This sequence feels like a fleeting moment captured not just once, but four times over—a snapshot of time unraveling. The Supersampler format emphasizes motion in such a unique way, turning an ordinary street scene into something almost cinematic. The man walking through the frame becomes the focal point, his casual stride contrasted against the rigid, weathered facade of the building behind him. There’s a beautiful tension here: the human movement feels fluid and alive, while the architecture, with its cracked plaster and faded pink-and-green tones, tells a story of wear and permanence.
The interplay of light and shadow across the bottom of the frame creates a subtle layer of drama. The light slicing through the foreground feels almost like a fifth frame—an unspoken element in this visual rhythm. The slight vignetting at the edges, along with the soft grain, gives the image a distinctly analog texture, reminding us of the tactile imperfections that make film photography so evocative.
Technically, the Supersampler shines here in its ability to distill motion into stillness, while maintaining a sense of progression. Each frame offers just enough overlap to feel connected, yet distinct enough to appreciate the subtleties of his shifting posture. It’s the kind of photograph that invites you to linger, to trace the details of each frame as though you’re following a quiet narrative unfolding in real time. An excellent example of how analog cameras like this can transform the mundane into the extraordinary.

– Album – FRA – 2019JUN08-10 – Pentecost Sunday:
Short but sweet layover.
My friend Dori and her sister-in-law Edda picked me up at 4 in the afternoon instead of 1:00, as our flight was 3 hours late & our crew arrived at the hotel about 11 in the morning. After my arrival nap, Dori drove Edda and me across the Rhine River into the state of Hesse for dinner at Domäne Mechtildshausen ...this place is a farm, B&B, café, restaurant, butcher shop, bakery, dairy shop, and produce, craft, & wine market, all the shops closed this Sunday – today – Pentecost. We ate outside at the restaurant, beside the beautiful brick buildings enclosing a large courtyard garden surrounded by sprawling farmland.
And that was our visit; 2½ hours after Dori picked me up, she had brought me back, and gave me a little bag of the locally famous Frauenstein cherries she had bought me, delicious!
Hope you enjoy the 14% of 255 photos I took here this day!

My progression of total lunar eclipse the moon to blood
Ah, the things you see when walking home. :-)
This is the glass roof of Edinburgh's Waverley train station, illuminated (at a low angle) by The Sun in late evening, just over a week ago, photographed looking down on it (from North Bridge).
I think it rocks...do we have a seconder? ;-)
