Macro Mondays, theme: "My Closest"
A gold-sequined lace was wrapped around a black ruler. The markings on the ruler (defocused) are 1 mm apart.
Single image.
To get this magnification, a vintage Nikkor 50 mm - f/1.4 lens was reverse-mounted on the camera using a reversal ring and two 27.5 mm extension tubes. The aperture was set to f/1.4.
Most of the time I shoot sunsets into or perpendicualr to the sun, but on this day we only had clouds to the east, so I walked to the other end of the fishing lake and shot towards the soft pink susnet clouds there.
At the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument Toadstool Hoodoo area in southern Utah, hoodoos formed from both the red and white rock formations.
This male Belted Kingfisher has some work ahead of him. He has a fish, a small one of course, but it has to go down the gullet head first. So this kingfisher starts out beating the fish senseless with beak movements and then will have to reposition the fish so it can swallow it headfirst. The water droplets around the bird and beak are the result of this quick beak action.

This tram is changing direction, so the conductor has to change over the conducting pole on the trolly wire. The tram came from Invercargill but is now running in Christchurch.
Normally I shoot sunsets at this lake toward the west, but on this day there were only clouds to the east, so I walked to the other end of the lake and happily there was a big sunset show to the east.
As they would say on Monty Python, "And now for something completely different." A kayak in my foreground. We had a different experience from the usual out floating about on the ocean water. Or rather, an inlet to the ocean. Some colored evening light, an island, and a kayak combine, illustrating a very different perspective. Meaning the shot is of land from water, rather than the usual water from land. And this, while one of the fellow kayakers from our group drifts on by in front of the island.

I shot this one late night when the fog at the Golden Gate Bridge seemed to be situated in the opposite of the usual scenario with the north side of the strait immersed in the vaporous phenomenon, while the south side was clear.
Thanks for your visit and support!
With the willow-herb going to seed and some leaves just starting to turn for autumn, DB Cargo Shed 66139 pulls away from Northwich following a reversal stop with what I think is the 10.58am Folly Lane ICI - Arpley Sidings (6F82).
The shot was taken back in 2017 when train intel from the usual sources no longer seems to be available. I opted to snap this early on exiting the loop to catch the sun on the side of the tanks.
Going off to the right is the single track to Sandbach, via Middlewich, and behind me is the other side of the triangle.

Helios 44-2 lens with reversal ring and DX (smaller) sensor. It was a 'What if...?' capture. I'm thinking that yellow splat is a Dandelion since it's in the grass. The reason my 'style' keeps changing is that I'm always doing ~ what if? photography.
DBS Shed no. 66156 opens up as she passes Dee Marsh Junction Signal Box knowing she will have to work hard over the next 6 miles lifting her 700+ tonne load some 300 feet in elevation on the climb up to Penyffordd, strangely enough the start point of the train.
She's hauling the 4.56pm Penyffordd Cement - Arpley Sidings (6E41), a working which requires two reversals - one at Dee Marsh, and another one at Wrexham where she will then take the line to Chester, and ultimately Arpley via Helsby. So quite a short journey as the crow flies but a rather busy one for the driver nevertheless. And a hot one this day too - you can almost see the heat-haze on the front of the loco.
This shot didn't get uploaded at the time in favour of a more 'arty' going away image. Perhaps it has some merit though, not least because of the signalman visible in the box, and the imposing pylon in the background.
Being fairly new to the area I've never known anything other than this view from Harwarden Bridge station, which is where I took the shot. You can imagine my surprise then when I did a Flickr search and discovered the image below taken by Gent of Leisure from pretty well the same spot some 30 years before!

Reversals of fortunes this week with the proceeding HST in the dull and 66139 hauling 17 JIA clay wagons in pretty much full bling, but only just. The front moved in rather rapidly, as can be seen a t was fu blue above 15 minutes ealier. Very pleased with the result here at Allerford with the 6G71 15.22 Cliffe Vale to Exeter Riverside Yard. 13/6/2022
Reversal ring used to capture this unique image of an ant on the stigma of the Fuschia flower in my back yard. Taken early morning and the dew gave the flower a Bokeh effect.
After a reversal at Maryport, 56113 eases through Parton with the 6Z87 08:38 Workington Docks to Drigg BNF. Stockpiled from local quarries, the aggregates conveyed in this short term flow were used not just for construction purposes but also for the capping of storage vaults at Drigg Low-Level Waste Repository, near to Drigg village. The site is the UK's central long-term storage facility for low-level radioactive waste. Although Colas operated, the trips utilised blue JNA-T wagons hired in from Cappagh / DC Rail.

Try to capture the refraction, but failed. As my printer is out of ink right now, I use the monitor as background. I think the quality of the glass matters.

After reversal at Derby, 69002 "Bob Tiller CM&EE" leads the 3Q98 07.15 Toton TMD to Toton TMD weedkiller to Skegness. Seen here approaching Nottingham at Lenton South Jn. 14/06/23.
tutto sembra dentro al binario ma ...deragliare è facile.
si può assaporare la parte più amara, fastidiosa, imbarazzante del proprio cammino in meno che si pensi.
non ci sono percorsi di lunghezza determinata, non esistono tempi prestabiliti.
