A scan of a very old slide.

I've uploaded this before (more than once) but here I've tried an alternative crop and reproduced it at a larger size. This gives a bit more "presence" I think but also shows the noise to bad effect. Anyway it's a record of a day out rather than an example of the landscape photographer's art.

 

My pair out with purpose.

Great weekend, including repeating a route I first did in horrendous conditions as a student. Much better this time. Cold and windy, but just the right amount of storm.

Lightweight bipedal weapons platforms. These are heavily influenced by the Gekkos from MGS, although I have changed several aspects, particularly the visual sensors (the black cluster on their noses)

captured in palmas paseo maritimo, this photograph showcases a woman confidently striding along a pathway with modern buildings in the background. her athletic wear and focused demeanor suggest a moment of personal dedication and purpose, set against the striking architecture that frames the scene. the bright, clear sky adds a vibrant contrast to the urban elements, enhancing the overall composition. this image captures a moment of contemporary life, blending personal fitness with the bustling rhythm of the city.

Just one of hundreds of faces I happened to capture during a brief walk in hot City streets at the end of a hot workday. Will show others later - perhaps as a series...

I liked the light that was streaming through the slats in the art installation. I was lucky that this guy strode through with his red bag.

Water striders are small insects that are adapted for life on top of still water, using surface tension to their advantage so they can “walk on water.” Water acts different at the surface. Water molecules are attracted to each other and like to stay together, especially on the surface where there is only air above.

 

They walk, run, hop, jump, hunt, eat, sleep and even mate on water's surface!

 

They belong to the family Gerridae, which is a family of insects in the order Hemiptera, commonly known as water striders, water skeeters, water bugs, pond skaters, water skippers, or Jesus bugs.

This is the first good mech i've built, I really like how it turned out. What do you guys think.

If you fav please comment.

Jungle Striders are agile Creatures with stilted legs. They are common all throughout the Region of Jungle, and although they are generally hostile, they are not very good fighters, and are quick to retreat from their foes.

Water striders use the surface tension of water to keep their whole body above the water surface. They have long legs with tiny hydrophobic hairs to distribute their weight. The image shows the depression on the water surface due to the strider's weight.

 

Water striders are very quick and are able to move faster than 1 meter per second. The middle legs provide the forward thrust, the hind legs are used for steering. The front legs are sensors for the ripples in the water caused by struggling insects. Spiders or insects accidentally falling into the water form the main prey of water striders.

Another pair with co-ordinating beads, again donated by my lovely wife

amidst the vibrant pulse of aix-en-provence, he strides, a solitary figure in motion against the static backdrop of a city in repose. the cap, a tribute to a team, speaks of loyalty in transient times. his gaze, fixed on the unseen horizon of his smartphone screen, narrates a story of connected disconnection. the urban tapestry, a mélange of shutters and vibrant hues, frames him in a portrait of modern intent. there's a rhythmic cadence to his step, a quiet defiance against the stillness that surrounds him.

adore this stride from Saxon, and with "4 off the floor" something I've rarely captured.

Pity the focus is a bit soft, almost chose for his weekly shot but for that.

Striding Edge in Winter is a very different animal in Winter compared to the 'tourist' motorway it is in Summer. In this image a Winter equipped hiker contemplates crossing the ridge into the thick cloud cover that rests over Helvellyn.
