Another shot of this first generation Murcielago. Talked to the owner and he told me that this one has 670hp. Won't get him anywhere if he doesn't have enough petrol.
That’s also a shot that I wanted to do for a really long time… At first I wanted to use the other side of the building which was much brighter. But I like the high contrasts and the reflections on the facade here.
Hope you like it!

At the Orange Campus in Balma, I focused on the stark geometric patterns created by the modern architecture. The black and white treatment emphasizes the dynamic interplay of lines, creating an abstract study of light and shadow.

Not my best shot, but a must after my last post, where I wrote that star trails are caused by earth rotation (angular motion).
Of course any rotation of the camera will lead to circular star trails. You can therefore also rotate your mount to achieve the effect. That's what happened here when I initiated a turn with my flying mount.
You can see the turning path in the cloud cover below, while the roll caused the star trails.

In Madrid for 24 hours on business, but I managed to slip away just long enough to take some shots of the leaning towers of the Puerta de Europa. The two towers lean toward each other at a 15º angle; this is the Caja Madrid building and the sunset behind it, reflected in the windows of the Realia building.
The comma (Polygonia c-album) like this male from Tyresta National Park have peculiar wings with angular notches in them - the reason the Polygonia genus is known as the anglewing butterflies.
The larvae of this species can live on and eat several different species of plants - but they develop at different speed depending on which kind of host plant they grow up on. The best choice is stinging nettles, Urtia dioica, which also bring with it a surprising twist.
Females practice mate choice and will prefer to mate with males that were reared on higher qualiy host plants. But how does she know?
Well, it turns out that he offers her a nuptial gift in the form of edible spermatophores containing spermatozoa and nutrients. Those reared on better plants will have a higher protein content and get chosen more often.
