With full frame a noticeable loss in magnification in macro though the D750 produces a much cleaner image with less noise than my old D5300
This scene reminded me of the theatre with the spotlighted rocks being the main attraction and the overlook being a set of premiere box seats reserved for patrons to enjoy the show. The show being a big heaping pile of tranquility and zen.
All comments, critiques and feedback both positive and negative welcome.
Our ever changing suburbs. Box Hill an eastern suburb of Melbourne. High rise taken from the perimeter of the former Brickworks!
Wishing everyone a very happy New Year!
I love this little cute music box. It's a gift from my sister. I love that lovely song. you can listen that song here.
The eastern box turtle is one of six extant subspecies of the common box turtle. It has a high-domed, rounded, hard upper shell, called a carapace. The vivid, orange and yellow markings on its dark brown shell distinguish it from other box turtles, as do the four toes on its hind feet. Its distinct coloring camouflages it among the damp earth, fallen leaves and other debris found on the floor of moderately moist forests.
The underside of its shell, called its plastron, is dark brown and hinged. All box turtles have this bilobed plastron, which allows them to almost completely shut their shell. When threatened, the box turtle pulls its body into its shell and waits for the danger to pass. Its shell is also unique in that it can regenerate. In one reported case, the carapace of a badly burned box turtle completely regenerated.
Box turtles have a hooked upper jaw, and most have a significant overbite. Their feet are slightly webbed. There are many ways to tell a male and female box turtle apart. Males are generally larger and have shorter, thicker tails than females. Males also have short, thick, curved hind claws, while females' hind claws are long, straight and thin.
Eastern box turtles walk energetically with their heads upright and may travel about 50 meters (55 yards) in one day. A homing instinct, an innate ability to navigate to a "home base" despite being in an unfamiliar area, helps this turtle find its way back home.

Teasing is over, here is the real thing. Inside the box, a semi-illuminated street with a strange scene going on.
These photos are'nt so great, but this creation means a lot to me, so please visit this page for more pix, different views and construction details :))
Made for a local convention this last week-end, and more coming up hopefully!
Feel free to tell me what you think, good or bad, or anything in between!
cheers y'all :D
Rings in a jewelry box.
Mostly, if not all, come from my wife's past, she very rarely wears these nowadays. It was tricky to shoot with the different shininess of the different metals and stones. Used a 55mm f2.8 lens, handheld with a diffuse light source. Used Gimp to blend a couple of different exposures to highlight the colours in the blue ring and not be too harsh on the gold ring.

Taken during what we call the "Chalk Festival" held in the Clifton Neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio. Among other things, artists create paintings with chalk on sidewalks and blocked off streets. It is always a fun event.
As I sat waiting for the mountain bluebirds to return to their nesting box my shutter finger got itchy to take some pics... so I decided to play with an HDR shot...

A bench in Box Canyon, which lies inside Turtle Mountain. Box Canyon had a lot of benches, on and off trail. I suspect they offered places for people to watch their friends climb, or to rest after climbing. Or both.
One of my favourite beaches in NSW.
Box Beach in Shoal Bay.
