The way it happened! No color edit - water in the pan is blue. Lighting is from the built-in camera flash with white paper behind the pan for reflection. No electronics. I use a remote timer and release drops from an eyedropper.

In the Chapel of Princes, in Florence's Medici Chapels, I set the camera on the floor, looking straight up and took this shot using a self-timer.
ODC-Every Picture Tells A Story
I haven't used my timer for a while. Today I made a big tray of baked potatoes and I like this timer because it has a loud bell when the time is up. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

no this is not the complete Maximilian von Montegla, nor it's himself, This is just a very small part of his colossal statue standing at the Promenadenplatz in Munich. This is the only piece of art, there are at least five of them. The most curios one, the di-Lasso-statue dar, or as it called in Munich the Michael Jackson statue. Still today there are fresh flowers, pictures and small gifts from his fans. Just because Michael used to stay at the Bayerischer Hof.
The funny part of the picture, we went there with some friends to photograph the lights of the Promenadenplatz, and try something new. For example manual mode, tripod always the same position, just change the white balance. I looked at the pictures, the light very different on each picture. Just did not get it. But the answer from our guide Chris was simple. The lights were on automatic timers, going dark to bright within a short time. But not all of them at the same time, this would be to easy. But this is another story.
The real story, we are packing up, because we want to get some Glühwein, mulled wine, since it's close to christmas evening. So standing there, ready stow away camera, tripod and other stuff, the last couple of pictures, yes guessed rigth Maximillian

Wasn't sure about posting this one.
I looked pretty young back then at the age of 58.
I took this with one of my first digital cameras.
Little Fuji FinePix S602 Zoom.
I never liked having my picture taken, as I usually look "grumpy"! :-).
Probably, because I didn't want to have my picture taken.
Someone, points a camera at me and I get nervous.
First thing they say is, "smile"!
I prefer me not smiling.
So, in my opinion, the best of shots of me were ones that I took of myself.....

Anyway, I am bored this morning, so, that is where all this rambling is coming from.
I went out to check on the fox Tuesday.
Saw three and photographed two of them.
I am going to try it again this morning.
We have had a lot of freezing rain and high winds. The winds were clocked at over 110 mph on some of the gusts and did a lot of damage round town.
Trees, fences, roofs, power outages, etc.
Everything, is pretty much a glare of ice.
I had to wear ice cleats on Tuesday, just to be able to get around.
Even then, it was iffy at times.
Back around the time I took that selfie, I probably wouldn't have given it a second thought.
But, as time goes by, I find myself trying to be more careful.
Camera Settings: f/2.8 - 1/12 - 31mm - ISO 200
Please view large.
PS: I did go out this morning and saw two moose
and three fox.
I did get some pretty good shots of the fox.
But, the ice was very, very slippery, even with the ice cleats on.
I hate wearing them, as they are sooooo noisy!!!
Still, it was nice to be out and snapping photos.

A meet up wouldn't have been complete without one of my legendary timer shots!! Luckily Mark and Marie were happy to play along! I was going to Photoshop that lamp post away, but I'm sure you didn't notice it growing out of my head!!

It is really hard for me to resist posting moon shots. It was a nice clear night tonight despite the very high winds. Shot with mirror delay and self timer from my back deck.
A rather fitting tribute to an old friend! Current fleet salutes an old timer.
Thursday 6th October 2016, the one time Aer Lingus A330, EI-CRK and more recently AP-BKM with Pakistani carrier Shaheen Air departs Dublin Airport for the final time bound for Orlando Sanford Airport in the USA for part out & scrap.
While waiting to line up on runway 10 for departure "Shamrock 146" operated by A330 EI-DUO arrives in from San Francisco framing AP-BMK for a picture perfect moment, whilst right behind AP-BMK was another Aer Lingus A330 EI-EDY operating the "Shamrock 105" flag service to New York JFK. Nice to see the former EI-CRK was in good company on her final transatlantic voyage!
Okay okay. Self timer, on Bri's boat, on Kelly's Island. Supposed to be a normal "Here we are on a weekend vacation" photo. But I fell over and couldn't stop laughing and it was all caught on film.
...the presence of fuzzy caterpillars is a sure sign of a hard winter.
The last time I saw a fuzzy caterpillar here we had the snowiest winter in the 9 years we've been here. I'm hoping this is an aberration.

Hi ha tot un mon fascinant de clons de les cà meres Leica. I no parlo de les copies post-sovietiques modificades en general per provar d'enganyar incauts. Em refereixo a les copies fetes els mateixos anys 30, 40 i 50 de les Leica I, II i III, generalment per fabricants Sovietics, Francesos, Italians i Japonesos. Les més nombroses son les sovietiques però potser algunes les més interessants son les japonenes.
La gran majoria foren produides a la postguerra mundial, ja que les patents alemanes havien estat anulades pels vencedors, i qualsevol fabricant podia lliurement produir un diseny tan solid i conegut com la Leica. Algunes d'aquests "Leica" japoneses presenten força millores sobre el diseny original sense perdre l'estètica general Leica. Una d'aquestes és la Leotax TV-2.
Aquesta cà mera fou fabricada a partir de 1958, i de fet és només una evolució de la Leotax FV (incorpora el temporitzador). El principal element a destacar d'aquest clon és l'avançament de la pel·licula, ja amb tirador. Això obligà a resituar el disparador per a fer espai. També el rebobinador compta amb tirador plegable. És curiós com Leica mai implementà aquests canvis fins models posteriors.
L'objectiu no venia amb la cà mera, essent un I-61 sovietic que jo ja tenia.

==================================================
There is a whole fascinating world of clones of Leica cameras. And I’m not talking about post-Soviet copies modified in general to try to fool the unwary. I am referring to copies made in the same 30s, 40s and 50s of the Leica I, II and III, usually by Soviet, French, Italian and Japanese manufacturers. The most numerous are the Soviets but perhaps some of the most interesting are the Japanese.
The vast majority were produced in the post-World War II period, as German patents had been annulled by the victors, and any manufacturer could freely produce a design as solid and well-known as the Leica. Some of these Japanese "Leica" feature quite a few improvements over the original design, like this one.
The Leotax TV-2, later known as the Merit, was introduced in 1958. In fact, it was the LV model plus a self-timer. These Leotax clones have the interesting adition of an advance lever, and also a folding rewind lever.
The lens did not come with the camera, being a Soviet I-61, that I already had.

For Christmas Dinner yesterday we only had our one son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter as he has never missed having Christmas at home except during Covid lockdown.
Our oldest daughter suggested a few months back that perhaps our oldest son should host a potluck Christmas Dinner on Boxing Day with mom (me) bringing turkey, ham and stuffing while others brought veg, munchies, deserts etc. as he was "in the middle" for driving purposes. Our oldest son was happy to do so as it would mean that they did not have to pile all the kids in the car to bring up to our place.
He had a "backdrop" that he purchased to hang as a decoration as it were and of course we all had to pose in front of it. I set the camera on the 10 second timer on their dishwasher (I did not bring my tripod) and we took a few shots.
We were missing our one daughter, son-in-law and a few grandchildren but still it was a fun day of getting together. It's not a tack sharp or even well thought out pose of the group but that's okay. It's a family photo to remember the fun time we had.
This week will be a bit hectic for us so hopefully I will get to see all of your images as quick as I can. In the meantime, I will thank you now in advance for having a peak at my image here.
