Knowing a bit more about photography makes it easier to understand how and why some oil paintings, say the impressionist, abstract or even watercolour paintings, came into being.
"A beautiful closeup of delicate orchid blossoms and a kaleidoscope of background colors. Great depth and soft light."
A review by Flickr friend/Connoisseur Gertrud Klopp
I haven't had a kalanchoe quite like this one. New blooms keep appearing daily. I like using them for macro shots and am having fun experimenting with washi paper backgrounds. I like the way the buds showed up in this pic.
Please note that long lists of group invites will be vapourised.
A rather elegant flower that I spotted in a local park last fall. Have a great weekend, everyone!

Another from last year. The background is natural - just the early light falling on golden grass with the butterfly in my shadow and a tweak or two of the exposure.

Crazy Tuesday: #Water
A funny note! After taking pictures of puddles near my apartment and getting wet (it's finally raining today); I didn't like the pictures I took. Then I thought about some water drops on some paper, mirror, plastic, etc inside my house. I tried several times and it seems my mind wasn't quite awake yet. I put some water drops with a spray bottle on some iridescent paper and click. But I didn't like them either. Nah! I wiped them off with my hand and these drops remained diagonally and well...cute... here they are. 😊
Thank you so much for the visit and comments!
I really appreciate it!
in a world where everyone, is in search of a bigger piture, be the one that dosn't need the background to get the message.

old bridge down by the mud (mud river) i have taken a lot of pictures from this bridge and now they have blocked it even for walking on. it is wildly warped and probably shouldn't be walked on.
Photographing signs is not the most original venture. In the background, a few lights from the skyscrapers in Frankfurt downtown can be seen. Just messing around.
Splendido tramonto con le isole eolie sullo sfondo del golfo di Tindari / Oliveri.

WHEN SWEET CORN IS RIPE….
THE HARVEST IS IN... then, you know it is Autumn… here in Northern Europe at least.
All Summer you see the fields getting higher.
Silk is the name for the pistillate flowers, which emerge from the husk.
The fruit of the sweet corn plant is the corn kernel, a type of fruit called a caryopsis.
The ear is a collection of kernels on the cob.
Because corn is a monocot, there is always an even number of rows of kernels.
The ear is covered by tightly wrapped leaves called the husk.
Sweet corn occurs as a spontaneous mutation in field corn and was grown by several Native American tribes.
The Iroquois gave the first recorded sweet corn (called 'Papoon') to European settlers in 1779.
It soon became a popular food all over.
Another personal favourite, cannot say exactly why...
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

The Protestant Church of St. Katharinen, which dates back to the 13th century, with its 115 meter high tower cannot be overlooked when you are traveling in the Hafencity in Hamburg.
It is considered the oldest upright building in Hamburg that is still in use.
Due to its proximity to the harbor, it is considered the sailors' church. That is why she also bears the name of Saint Catherine of Alexandria, the patron saint of sailors and merchants.
Since Hamburg was one of Europe's centers for trade and shipping at the time, this makes perfect sense.
Further to the left in the background you can see the church of St. Nikolai, which was destroyed in the Second World War and of which only the tower remains today as a memorial.
Die aus dem 13. Jarhundert stammende evangelische Kirche St. Katharinen ist mit ihrem 115 Metern hohen Turm t nicht zu übersehen, wenn Ihr in der Hafencity in Hamburg unterwegs seid.
Sie gilt als das älteste aufrecht stehende Gebäude von Hamburg, welches noch immer in Funkton ist.
Auf Grund ihrer Nähe zum Hafen gilt sie als die Kirche der Seeleute. Darum träge sie auch den Namen der Heiligen Katharina von Alexandrien dem Schutzpatron der Schiffer und Kaufleute.
Da Hamburg zur damaligen Zeit eines der europäischen Zentren für Handel und Schiffahrt war, macht das absolut Sinn.
Weiter links im Hintergrund seht Ihr noch die Kirche St. Nikolai, die allerdings im 2. Weltkrieg zerstört wurde und von der heute nur noch der Turm als Mahnmal erhalten ist.
