This is a shot of some bubbles in the neck (top) of a freshly opened bottle of Desparados Verde beer, the bubbles were tiny, the whole field of view (photo) is about 10mm wide. Manfrotto Tripod, Olloclip macro @ 21x magnification, Hisy remote, Makita LED torch, brewed further in Snapseed on iPad Pro with help from an Apple Pencil, and finally gently poured in 'Photos' on iMac.
Aluminium is often a component of bicycle hubs as it is lightweight but strong. This Hi-Lo hub (rare) uses aluminium (the section in this shot) and steel. Aluminium is an element on the periodic table with an atomic number of 13 and is my submission for Macro Mondays. HMM one and all!
I found this intriguing and complex mural “Atomic Kosmos”. Perhaps you recognize on the left side, one member of the 'Halloween-family'. They are on the same wall ;-))
Happy Wall Wednesday!
Now we must be ready
For a new danger
And this is very very important
You know when it comes,
With warning or without warning
All those fantastic photos I'm discovering on Flickr inspired me to do some work on shots from the past.
The Atomic Dome stands for one of the most tragic moments in human history. I tried to reflect this in my processing.

Here I am, alone again
Can't get out of this hole I'm in
It's like the walls are closin' in
You can't help me, no one can
I can feel these curtains closin'
I go to open 'em
But something pulls 'em closed again
(Hello darkness, my old friend)
A little flower I noticed while walking in the center of Portland, Oregon, early in the morning on a bleak Winter day. Up close, shot with a macro lens, it is evocative of that bleak morning and looks quite interesting.
Crane Flies look like giant mosquitos, but they do not bite. They somehow gained a reputation as mosquito eaters, but the adults don’t eat anything at all - they only live 10 – 15 days.
Happy Sliders Sunday!

The Atomic Cafe
Regent Street, Redfern - Sydney.
My eclectic little discovery today whilst visiting
'Carriageworks', at Redfern, for a work project.
Redfern is an inner city suburb of Sydney. A rather 'colourful' one and, in the past, perhaps a place to avoid.
'Atomic' does a great flat white coffee and sensational toasted raspberry bread.
But today was indeed a shocker for me. I caught the train to Redfern and then got off, but I left my backpack on the train, complete with mobile phone, wallet, etc. Panic set in. I have never done this before!!
But, I must say, 'State Rail' ('Sydney Trains') was amazing. After leaving Redfern my T9-line train then descended into the underground Sydney City Circle. But they tracked the train, saw the backpack on 'train cam', and boarded the crowded train at Town Hall Station, rescuing the backpack!
Like an episode of 'Mission Impossible'.
The idiot (that's me) that left his backpack on the train, then had to catch another train into the city and report to the station-master at Town Hall Railway Station, with 100 points of identification, to retrieve the backpack.

Única foto que cliquei dessa nuvem estranha antes da bateria da câmera zerar de vez. Seguiu uma série de raios entre essa nuvem que só pude olhar e lamentar. Nessa foto quase registro o rastro de um raio.

Very close to the cool 'Waterview' cafe on Bay Road, at Waverton.
Excellent for coffee before venturing down to the harbour for sunset photographs!!
