This is a remake of an old photo already on my photostream. (See in the comment below).
To create this macro effect, you need to take the lens off the camera and invert it, easier said than done, but can give fun results.
I put this through Topaz Studio for a painted effect.
Poor man's macro
Ive seen other photographers do this same photo, but I guess I had to try it out for myself.

Soft blue sunset with boats, clouds and reflections at Koolewong and Tascott on the Central Coast, NSW, Australia.
This young pizzaiola takes her break on this doorstep, not far from the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. There's a tourist frenzy rumbling around her, but she's sitting there quietly, living her life. And I see her, all contrasting colours. That's all it takes to create inverted colours.

Cette jeune pizzaiola prend sa pause sur le pas de cette porte, non loin de la fameuse tour de Pise. Il y a une frénésie touristique autour d’elle qui gronde, mais elle est assise là tranquille, elle vit sa vie. Et moi je la vois, toute en contraste de couleurs. Il n’en faut pas plus pour créer les couleurs inversées.
Made a random turn onto a nearby county road the other day, one I have driven numerous times over the years. Only difference this time was I just happened to be traveling opposite my normal direction. Halfway up a hill I came upon this stunning scene. At first I wondered how I could have missed it after so many passages. After stopping to check it out, I soon noticed that it was all but invisible for a westbound motorist (my normal direction of travel on this road). The dramatic sightline only opened up in the eastbound lane.
Thought this was a wonderful metaphor for life. I tend adopt a singular view of things over time. This happens all the time in driving. I often see things as I expect to find them rather than how they truly appear. The human brain has a remarkable tendency to connect the dots in this way. Driving the road in the reverse direction forced my brain to reset and see the landscape from a new perspective.
Back in the moment, the dead tree was the personification of pure evil. It loomed over the old barn as if guarding it. Tons of weight, precariously balanced, and capable of dropping black shards of dead wood without notice, ready to impale the unsuspecting. Even the comforting softness of early spring could not ameliorate this scene.
Back to Big Tree forest and a walk through the forest. While it is a pleasant and peaceful trek with birds singing, my eyes are not seeing any compositions. After reaching a point deep into the hike, it is time to turn a round.
But, it is now one hour later and the forest has taken on a very different look. The suns rays have moved, and some of what was lit is now in shadow. More importantly for a composition, some of what was in shadow, is now lit.
Taken at Newcastle Beach NSW, Australia.

I saw this deer in the Scottish Highlands. I don't know if all of his species have this feature - or he was special - like Rudolf in reverse.
Typically photographers stand on the hill behind, however the odd morning train throws a spanner into the works.
Running 26.5 hours behind their original schedule, NR74 and NR75 navigate infamous curves at Yorkeys Crossing nearing Port Augusta on a one-off timed Ghan to Adelaide from Darwin as 4DA8.
Owing to a wash away near Katherine, trains were rescheduled approximately 1 day after their intended time.

Knossos (alternative spellings Knossus, Cnossus, Greek Κνωσός, pronounced [knoˈsos]) is the largest Bronze Age archaeological site on Crete and considered as Europe's oldest city.
The name Knossos survives from ancient Greek references to the major city of Crete. The identification of Knossos with the Bronze Age site is supported by tradition and by the Roman coins that were scattered over the fields surrounding the pre-excavation site, then a large mound named Kephala Hill, elevation 85 m (279 ft) from current sea level. Many of them were inscribed with Knosion or Knos on the obverse and an image of a Minotaur or Labyrinth on the reverse, both symbols deriving from the myth of King Minos, supposed to have reigned from Knossos.[5] The coins came from the Roman settlement of Colonia Julia Nobilis Cnossus, a Roman colony placed just to the north of, and politically including, Kephala. The Romans believed they had colonized Knossos.[6] After excavation, the discovery of the Linear B tablets, and the decipherment of Linear B by Michael Ventris, the identification was confirmed by the reference to an administrative center, ko-no-so, Mycenaean Greek Knosos, undoubtedly the palace complex. The palace was built over a Neolithic town. During the Bronze Age, the town surrounded the hill on which the palace was built.
The palace was excavated and partially restored under the direction of Arthur Evans in the earliest years of the 20th century. Its size far exceeded his original expectations, as did the discovery of two ancient scripts, which he termed Linear A and Linear B, to distinguish their writing from the pictographs also present. From the layering of the palace Evans developed de novo an archaeological concept of the civilization that used it, which he called Minoan, following the pre-existing custom of labelling all objects from the location Minoan.
The site of Knossos was discovered in 1878 by Minos Kalokairinos. The excavations in Knossos began in 1900 by the English archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans (1851–1941) and his team, and continued for 35 years. Its size far exceeded his original expectations, as did the discovery of two ancient scripts, which he termed Linear A and Linear B, to distinguish their writing from the pictographs also present. From the layering of the palace Evans developed an archaeological concept of the civilization that used it, which he called Minoan, following the pre-existing custom of labelling all objects from the location Minoan.
Since their discovery, the ruins have undergone a history of their own, from excavation by renowned archaeologists, education and tourism, to occupation as a headquarters by governments warring over the control of the eastern Mediterranean in two world wars. This site history is to be distinguished from the ancient.
LTWI661 twists through the reverse curve just east of De Graf, Minnesota on the former Great Northern main, now BNSF Morris Subdivision. Acting as the de facto caboose is a scale test car seen on the left; something of a rarity in 2025 now. 661 was a Wilmar-Aberdeen local that took the GN main to Benson. From there, they would hop on GN's branch to Watertown, continuing west to Appleton where, they would hop on the former Milwaukee Road transcon for the rest of the trip to Aberdeen. BNSF has combined the Benson-Appleton part of the GN Watertown branch with the Milwaukee Appleton-Aberdeen main and this whole line is now known as the Appleton Subdivision. The well powered local will need every horse they can get to lug heavy stone loads up the eastern flank of the Coteau des Prairies; 13.5 miles of 1% grade starting near Twin Brooks at MP618.5 and ending east of Summit at MP632.
This was my first little taste of the Minnesota-Dakota tristate area. Back then I was fascinated by BNSF's Watertown local. At the time they were using sets of geeps and usually had large trains making 2 trips a week. So our initial goal was shooting them west of Appleton. However, a TCWR west end job with four CAT motors parked in town peaked our interest. We had heard they would have a 1500 crew to head west. But as the sun set lower to the horizon it was becoming more clear that would not be the case. Also concerning was that the Watertown local hadn't shown up yet.
Instead of waiting, we hightailed it to Willmar, finding the place in a meltdown mode that was typical of the oil-boom era. LTWI661 got kicked out first, so we chased them towards Benson before doubling back to shoot LTWI675, the Watertown job, until the sun set into developing tunderstorms. It wasn't what we wanted but at least we got some shots.
We still wanted those 4 CATs on the TCWR west end job. So we camped in our car by Appleton's water treatment plant while severe thunderstorms popped off to the north and south of us all night. It was a miserable muggy night "sleeping" in a puddle of sweat. I was awoken at 0330 the next morning by the sound of 4 CATs beginning their trek west to Milbank. This would occupy us the rest of the morning. I'm glad it worked out but that would be THE LAST time I would ever sleep in my car.
It's really funny looking back now with the perspective of hindsight. The 2731 was a neat geep with the large Wagon Wheel. But back in the day we thought the RV camper air conditioners looked ridiculous. Man...if only I knew what BNSF was capable of only 5 or 10 years later.
Located at Mahar Point, the northern point of a narrows separating Dennys Bay from Cobscook Bay in far eastern Maine. The narrows are subject to a reversal of current twice a day, owing to the area's unusually high tides.

Looks like they gave up on this project!
Much appreciation for all your views, faves, comments and invitations!
This chap skated everywhere in reverse gear showing off his backward driving skills. Picture was taken on ‘Wheels Sunday’; the Sunday of the ‘Manchester Pride Week’.
Sometimes I like to turn upside down certain pictures, especially when some reflections are involved. Not sure why I do that, but it is all part of the fun.
Goldentail morays (Gymnothorax miliaris) are usually brown with tiny yellow spots, see here). Every once is a while you find one that is yellow with some brown to form a honeycomb. (Or more precisely, instead of small yellow spots, there are large yellow spots.)
This was a small one, maybe 15cm long in total. The trick is to get it to be out of its hiding hole enough to get the strobes to light the moray without hitting the background coral.
