It's a question of not letting
What we've built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
Where have all the butterflies gone? And just a week ago there were so many. I have another question mark butterfly for you.
Question for anyone who might know from scanning negatives. In the centre of the tree you can see some whiteness where the clouds should be dark, is that a known issues of scanning?
So here we are again, me typing this, and you reading. I've been putting a lot of thought into my account over the past few months. My photography has become such a joy to me and my life that I find the longer I do what I do, the more addicted I become (tragic right?) :P
I absolutely love creating art with Still-Life Photography. I been shooting Lego for nearly six years now and see no signs of stopping in the future. I've been part of an incredible community over the years and I find myself wondering if this is all worth it? Now I know that my photos are enjoyed by you all, and now I feel that this is the next obvious step in my relationship to Lego and my Camera.
To answer that question, 'is it worth it'? Well of course it is, but I don't wanna drown in my own ideas without being able to execute them. So I guess that's what leads us here....
I've started a Patreon to fund my photography. ...But what does that mean?
It means I've decided to give you even more content, but whether you want to see it is up to you. Patreon is a crowd-funding website, made to encourage artists and designers to make more stuff! Now that doesn't really change what's happening here on flickr, this little page isn't going anywhere!
Starting a Patreon is a bit nerve-racking, and some thoughts come to mind. Things like, will my followers support me and enjoy the extra content? Does this change the perception you guys have on me? And honestly, I really shouldn't be worried. I enjoy creating art, and you guys enjoy viewing those creations! So there doesn't seem to be any downside to something like this.
If you donate any amount you'll receive bonus content not seen on any of my other Social Media! Some of this stuff includes, behind the scenes of MOC's, builds that set my scenes, previews to new content, and upcoming projects (WIP's), plus other scraps that don't quite belong anywhere else! :)
My Patreon is set up as a subscription that you get to choose the price. Basically if you wanted to throw me a few dollars a month, you get access to more stuff related to my Photography! This could also include anything from previews of new figs, to tips and tricks to photography. A full year of that would be cheaper than a Large PAB cup!
Now if you're all like “Hey yo what? Pay for this junk? No way!” Dude that's totally fine! This is something totally up to you! I won't stop posting on flickr, but you may just see that stuff earlier on Patreon! You may even see how I built that one Rouge's lair or how I did that one effect in that one photo, et cetera :P
There are already a few posts up about my lighting setups and builds for the recent Black Lantern posts, Gotham In Red, The Flash No.123, and some other stuff! If you pay more than a dollar, you get even more content, like fully edited photo's that I don't post here! :)
I really enjoy this community that flickr has created and I want to be a part of it for as long as I can. Supporting my work will only encourage me to create more and strengthen the community! Plus, it funds cool things like Fish-eye lenses, new lighting equipment, More Christo figs, and more Bricklink Orders!
There is no shame in not contributing! I'll be just fine if you feel you can't donate, but this would help keep my page floating! And hey, you all get a peek into my workspace, and that's kinda what drives me to create my Patreon. To be able to share my creativity, keep teaching, and learning what it's like to be a professional photographer... what ever that means :P
Thanks guys :)
Cropping: When traveling and taking pictures, there's always the question of people. Do you want them in your image or not? Sometimes it helps to have them in to give your subject perspective. You have to ask yourself - 1. What the main story/subject here and what do I want to bring attention to? 2. How do I want to tell the story? Wide scope where the "looker" is deciding for themselves or are you giving it to them --no question! Here's an example where I wanted to showcase these steep stone steps... the people were on private tour. Without asking them to move (we didn't have time to wait) I decided to take the pic and crop later. I like the middle best in this instance. Far left is the original. Middle crop you still keep the sense of the steps, and they aren't the 2nd place subject in the pic. Right side--I think you lose too much of the sense of how steep they are and the steps themselves start to become secondary...
I've been working on my MW2 characters for a week now and I'm still not happy with Soap's face. Does it look alright or should I change it??

Whenever I go to or return home from Alaska, the question I get is… where did you fish? I readily admit that I'm just not into fishing, it is just one of those things that I want to like more than I actually like (kind of like Harry Connick Jr.). My belabored point is that all of Alaska is an adventure and you don't necessarily need to fish to enjoy it. For the sake of the Alaskan tourist industry, I think that Alaska should dump their existing lame slogan of "Alaska... the Last Frontier"; (which sounds like it’s right out of an old Star Trek episode) and adapt mine… WILD ALASKA… So Much More than Fishing!

ce goéland a l'air d'avoir les plumes qui prennent l'eau quelqu'un sait-il pourquoi ?
This one looks like soaked , anyone knowing why ?
Easy to identify this butterfly with that big white question mark on the side of the wing. Found it in my back yard.
Question Mark Butterfly (Polygonia interrogationis)

Question to all of you: why does my EXIF information show sometimes, and other times it does not. I use Lightroom Classic for all my editing and the data shows there. Does anyone else have this problem?
in the geometry
of my
body
lies a
soul.....
my mind in command position....
different and inherent parts of me....
sometimes I try to define
others to understand......
It should be simple.....
tricky
isnt it?
how this supposed to be
free
soul
can be attached to anything?????
and if my body is mine
and my soul is free
how is my mind so confused.....???
Ela mora no mar
Ela brinca na areia

Obrigada Claudio.!!
in the mathematics of perfect roundness.
instruments can be resetted by the wonderful curvature of you
all souls are free. All just need a key to to be captured

#AbFav_SIGNS_of_SPRING_🐝
On my last visit to Belgium, I met up with a friend, a lady who is also a keen 'free-style' gardener like me, so it was inevitable that we talk plants and flowers...
I asked her the 'impossible' question, what is YOUR favourite flower???
After some humming and aahhing, her answer was WALLFLOWER!!!!!!
For all its stunning colours, no two are ever the same.
One of the few flowers that I had not photographed in the studio yet...
The weather was lovely, a late Easter Sunday, we wandered through her garden and I saw the wallflowers!
She got involved with a plant and that was my opportunity to take the shots!
Here they are, the fragrant multi-coloured wallflowers.
Lead and enjoy a good life, do and say things that enrich... and do not forget to tell the people close to you, how much you love them!
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

“Sky, why are you downside up?”
“It’s a clever ploy Bertie. I am trying to think of an answer to a question I have and I thought that if I was downside up, all my cleverness would be sure to be in my head where it needs to be.” Said Sky proudly.
“Wow! Did you think of that on your own Sky?”
“I did Bertie, and now I have to see if it works, so I can answer my questions.”
“Could I help you do you think Sky, only it feels a bit strange talking to fluffy kneecaps?”
“Maybe Bertie, after all you are known for your cleverness. I think I’ll stay like this though just in case you fail…again.”
“What is your question then Sky?”
“The man was talking to that screen picture thing he has and this hooman who he was talking to said they were having “Lunder and Tightening”. I was trying to work out what that is, do you know Bertie?”
“Lunder and Tightening, now let me think Sky. Eeermm, no sorry can’t help you with that one but then knowing hoomans, they probably don’t know themselves.”
Just then Icecap and Posh Bear came along and sat down beside them.
“Hi chaps, can either of you two help poor Sky before all his intelligence goes to his head and comes out of his ears?” Asked Bertie.
“I can’t see there being enough of it to make that happen to Sky.” Giggled Icecap.
“Well anyway, Sky wants to know what Lunder and Tightening is, as he heard the man’s screen hooman say it earlier.”
“What was actually said Sky?” Asked Icecap.
“Well, the man said it was sunny here and the screen hooman said they had Lunder and Tightening. I had a thunk and couldn’t work out what it was Icecap.”
“I think you must have misheard Sky; I think the screen hooman actually said Thunder and Lightning.” Declared Posh Bear.
“Well, I was close, so what is that then Posh?”
“Well, up high in the air Sky, higher than even the fluffiest white ship that floats on by, there lives lots of us bears that are waiting to be able to come down here, and give love and cuddles to a hooman and try to teach them some basics in intelligence. Well, every so often the food for them is late arriving and they have rumbly tummies and because there are so many of them it is very loud and we can hear it down here. Hoomans call that thunder. Now, to alert the food place that they are hungry and have rumbly tummies the bears switch the lights on and off and that causes flashes of light down here. Hoomans call that lightning. It is nothing to worry about Sky for the flashing lights always works and the bears get their food and then the rumbling stops.”
“Gosh! You are so clever Posh, you know everything.” Said Bertie clearly impressed.
“I know.” Said Posh smiling.
“Posh, how come you are so clever and yet don’t stand downside up like me?” Asked Sky.
“I don’t think it is necessary Sky, I should get back on your feet again.”
“Oh, I thought that because of what hoomans call gravy, everything travelled downwards and this was my plan to have all my intelligence where it needs to be.”
“No Sky, you have that wrong, hoomans don’t call it gravy, they call it gritty...I think.” Chipped in Icecap.
“Actually, it is called gravity and you don’t need to worry about that yet Sky. I have a good idea, let us see how much honey we have and break open a jar or two.” Said Posh Bear.
“Sounds like a plan, I’ll just nip to the freezer thingy and get some fish.” Said Icecap before realising that Sky and Bertie were no longer there.
“They never were that big on fish.” Mumbled Icecap shaking his head sadly.

After doing some serious research on the id of this bird, I came to no conclusion.
In early spring, at the same area, I saw two of them but never had time to take a shot. Because they flew almost right away, I thought they were Nashville Warblers. To my big surprise this week, I have seen them again. So that told me it was not a Nashville Warbler. It looks like a female Redstart to me but the yellow is very bright and all over the front which is not a female Redstart pattern. Also there is no pattern at all on the wings. I assume this is an adult as I have seen them in the spring. I have several shots but you can see the white and dark coloured pattern under the tail and some white patches on top of the tail..... I checked so many birds and still have no clue what it is. I would really appreciate your comments on that one. What do you think it is?

Asking the question... what if this had really happened in our history on a mass scale?
Models: PJ Walker and Horace Silver
Question is!
In all truth the question doesn't really matter! the reason is more defining as to why we do what we do.
I've not been asked buy my parents why I do this crossdressing malarkey as of yet but it will come at some point so when it does what do I say?
We all have and most still do ask ourselves why we are like this but we very rarely ask what drives us. what makes us do what we do whatever stage you are on the spectrum.
For me I have from the day I mixed with other children identified more with the girls than I did with the boys, I even ran away from home at the age of eight or nine because my parents decided I should have my shoulder length blond hair cut into a more boyish style. I didn't get far in the running away thing making it as far as the playground lol
Even after a subliminal forced boyhood I still saw myself as a girl. even people who met me for the first time had to ask if I was a boy or a girl right up to the age of 12.. What you see now is just my bloody mindedness me saying "I only have one go at this life and I will be who I want to be regardless"
We are a long time dead and a short time alive.
my true identity and not my physical one drives me to morph into the woman above.
No outside influence made me this way, it wasn't nurture it is plan and simply the way nature meant it to be for me.
do you think that explanation will work?
"How do you know when it's time for you to go
How can you stop when you don't know how to start
How can you go back when you don't know why you're here
How can you see when your eyes begin to fade
How will you hear when you've heard it all before
How do you do all the things you want to do
How much can you take when you've taken all you can
Hoe can you act when you've never seen the script
How can you choose when you don't know which is right
How far can you go if you've been there before
How can you shine if you've never seen the sun
How does a child become a man without a child
How can you heal someone that doesn't want to heal"
