People asked what are you going to make with it, sewing needles. So, stick pin for scale.

Yes, I even made the little nuts. Crushed a few in the process. Parts of this were made on a lathe not much newer than after the period this is modeled.

 

See photo stream for other pictures. It took over a year working once a week about 5 hours.

This is one of the most beautiful animals. Unfortunately, its huge plumes were cut off.

Shellings have proven the interior to be dangerous and unsafe, scale the walls and figure out what you can.

GBRf Class 60 No. 60076 passes Scale House on the Rylstone branch working 6D50, the 10:24 Hull Dairycoates – Rylstone Tilcon working on 12 December 2024.

The highest waterfall in the Lake District is Scale Force with a single drop of 170 ft, and two others of about 20 ft. It is hidden away in a deep tree-lined gorge on the way from Crummock Water to Red Pike on land owned by the National Trust.

The highest waterfall in the Lake District where Scale Beck falls over a single drop of 170 ft follwed by two more of about 20 ft.

A cold winter afternoon... when i'd hoped that the late sun would colour the distant mountain ingleborough.

Despite a favourable forecast... things didn't pan out.

The sun when it appeared was fleeting, weak and watery.... you could say that it was a wasted venture.

However standing on Scales moor, a remote plateau, surrounded by big frozen mountains- Ingleborough, Gragareth and Whernside gives you a lesson in Scale (apt place name then). How tiny we are... insignificant even.

 

The last thing my Father said to me (and will ever say to me) was that i was an "insignificant piece of Sh#t".

He hoped that this was an insult, and he had wanted to hurt.... however all i heard was the truth..... and the truth is liberating.

My father wasn't loving, or caring, he wasn't a role model, nor was he my idol. A teacher would you believe, an educated man who used his intelligence to brutalise his children.

I endured his apathy towards me, his beatings and his belittlement. And when i got to an age where he could no longer throw me around, i was of no use to him and he retreated to his study and garden. He has never telephoned me, never said well done... that i make him proud.. or that he loves me. When i visited his home... he would be there.... in the garden or another room.

I'll add that this retreat wasn't shame for his parental failings, for he believes that his education means that he is utterly infallible and therefore has no need or capacity for self analysis or desire for atonement. He never bothered with his parents, friends or family, anyone that could have corrected him or set him an example to follow. Anyone in his life was short lived and only because they were of benefit to him in some way...... isn't that ugly?

So he was quite correct, i was insignificant, however he was a man that i never knew and insignificance is very much a two sided coin.

So we're both insignificant...

My insignificance however isn't confined to a pressure cooker of four walls or trimmed privets..... And as i stood utterly alone next to this huge erratic that has endured countless seasons and lifetimes the difference was that i was euphoric in my insignificance. Here there were no confines, or hate or anger or regret.

To add to my euphoria some rare Kelvin- helmholtz clouds formed over Ingleborough... the final piece for my composition.

Life is beautiful!!

Without sounding like a motivational speaker ....

Never forget the bad stuff in life, just don't dwell on it, instead use it to appreciate the good.... and this world will show you some incredible things.

Early morning look at the old part of Hull City.

Into the gloomy distance go the intrepid RAF Voyager and a Finnish Air Force F-18 Hornet at RIAT 2023. A symbol of NATO cooperation for now and into the future. It’s hard to believe that the closest to the camera of the two aircraft is the Hornet.

I'm having fun with posing my cups. Far too many to work on and hard to choose which composition I like the best.

 

This has been treated with many layers of textures and overlays. Cropped, desaturated colour ... you name it! Photoshop CC2015.5, Lightroom CC first for tone.

 

A hot tea in the summer will cool you .... so come on over!! I've been into Aqua things lately .... have always been fond of it but used to be hard to find pretty things in it but it seems now, it's all over the place ... Yay!!!

Enjoy your week friends!

Scales of a Morpho Didius, also known as the Giant Blue Morpho.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morpho_didius

 

These blue scales are extremely hard to photograph to begin with, combined with the transparent scales, it posed a great challenge to my lighting and photographic skills. It turned out to be great and I am happy with the result. It's still not the best and there's many places of improvement. Not much detail can be seen in the transparent scales. Lighting needs some more work.
