Speckled bush cricket (a young larva) after a walk through the flower of a evening primrose. Then she cleaned the feelers of the pollen. These are pulled several times with the help of the forefoot through the "mouth".

Gawdy Sensor Ship
Plenty of sensors on this one including those ostentatious radars, a spinny round thing and a non-spinny round thing. All a little overblown?

Recently I took advantage of a Nikon holiday sale and picked up a new 70-200 f2.8 S lens, and so far I'm loving it. One of the first trains to enter my sensor via the new glass was this L529 with a relatively mundane lashup; CN 4713 & IC 9607 ahold of about a thousand feet of traffic for industries along the Weston Sub.

"No Filters!"
But of course filters are used, if I have a look at my cameras' settings, I'll discover all sorts of neat little adjustments. Digital adjustments which control the built in "filter" imbedded on the sensor. Camera phones included.
Another question I sometimes I ask myself.....Can anyone tell me "Why do sunsets have to be in color?". Nothing wrong with color, I love color imagery. We punch it up with our articificial software, adding more filtration beyond what our artificial camera/sensor provides (they ALL have built in filters btw, phones included) creating artificial scenes, which is fine if expressing an artitistic interpretation, but then many are then used to promote tourism.....are they *realistic* as to what any givien person would actually see? When we do this, are we bordering on "false advertising"?
Kinda like back in the days of airbrushing the models that appear on the magazine cover....it's fake. The only way to appreciate a scene is to acually see it with ones' own eyes....other than that, it's all "fake news". lol
And yes... I include my own images, but I never make any bones about it.... I'm an artist first, everything else is then my interpretation of what I see with no representation of "Come see this..." ....because it doesn't exist except of course, in my own mind. lol
Image was taken last night in front of our home as the sun was setting. Happy Sunday!

Had a new visitor to my bird feeding setup today. Think it was because I'm cutting away a strip of the lawn to make a border and he was looking carefully for any upturned worms. Got another shot of him perched on the spade handle which I'll post later. This was taken at 8 pm and sunset this evening was at 19:09 so although there was still daylight the light level was low and so II had to use a very high ISO setting on the camera to allow the sensor to be sensitive enough to the low light. . (ISO 3200 - In consequence, there's inevitable graininess in the image)

Playing with my sony compact one inch sensor for landscape while waiting to hands on the new canon 6D Mark II.
Shot with Single J-peg and process by P.S.
Sony RX100M3 Dynamic Range is very respectable profound like my Sony A6000. However, the half inch sensor could not really sustain noise level when engaging for longer exposure and it may let down on this aspect otherwise no big complaints and is super compact and handy for photographer use to carry load of equipment gears.

The dogs are dueling over the fence, causing the motion sensor lights to come on. Mooky and Kona need to chill. 100 Days of Darkness 8/100.
We were koming back from a wonderful day out in the kar...and I was trying differents settings on the kamera and shooting to a "there's no words to describe it" sunset... and well .. when i get home... and downloaded the piks.. he or she.. this presence was there.. I never saw it when I took the pik...

JPGs straight out of camera using Nikon's NATURAL colour profile. The old CCD sensors have been said to be more filmic (if not noisier) and this is the Nikon D60, an old DSLR which was first announced back in Jan 2008 (a 15 year old camera)

There is nothing quite like the feeling of standing on a beautiful stretch of the beach in the calm serenity of morning watching entranced by the magnificence of nature’s light show. The slow, steady and inevitable movement of the sun as it pours through the point on the horizon and gradually pulls itself into shape as the warm and life giving ball of light that we are all so familiar with.
I stand there and my mind drifts off to think about the physics that go into making that shot. It’s all very strange to think that the photons that are hitting my camera sensor left the surface of the sun eight minutes and ten seconds earlier and in fact the giant ball of gas is already high in the sky but we just can’t see it yet. The life of those photons actually started deep inside the sun and they have been beavering their way to the surface since before any humans walked the earth. A photon is created as a bi-product of the fusion reactions going on inside the core of the sun when Hydrogen is fused into Helium. The photon then spends anything from 50,000 to 500,000 years being bounced around in the solar soup of Hydrogen and Helium trying to avoid being re-absorbed and make it the 700,000 kilometres to the surface and freedom. For every single photo that escapes there were countless trillions that were pulled back into a hydrogen nucleus and made to start again.
So next time you are standing there enjoying the spectacle that is a beautiful sunrise think about the time and energy that went into make it all happen and then realise that the little effort you need to put in to getting through the day is a drop in the ocean in comparison the poor photon that we all take so for granted.
