A Blondie song lyric (Debbie's vocals are often in my head) and a few less rambling thoughts from me than usual. My brainwaves are going into lockdown mode, I have been sensing it for a few days. It is my mind telling my heart to recharge. Dreamer ideology.
Sending lots of love and hoping everyone is having an amazing, beautiful week! 💖
Once again, I was trying to achieve a slightly vintage, with a touch of edgy, hazy vibe with this image. For what good reason mini me is loitering out in a hay field with a full on layer cake, complete with pedestal plate is anyone's guess. A carrot cake for my horses, perhaps? But wait, those are strawberries! Okay, it’s a cake for me then. As always, we can just blame the randomness of a cake wielding farm girl on SL..SL brings out the absurdity! And how is that for a truly pointless photo write up? It’s all I can dredge up from my brainwaves today. Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. ❤️💕🍰
Honestly I'm finding it very interesting to see that from certain point of views you'll see more than most of us do in normal life. In this shot I see the letter V. Anyone another brainwave? The Hague, The Netherlands

Firework ICM.
Taking good pictures of fireworks seems to be a mix of experience and luck. Experience helps with the point of view, the focus and the shutter speed. But the rest is down to luck in the timing and the weather.
Often in a 20 or 30-minute display I'd be happy to get half a dozen good images. Because fireworks images often have very little visual context, even if you get lucky, your image is not going to look much more interesting than the others published on sites like Flickr.
So in a vain attempt to increase the interestingness, the last time there was a local show (October 2019!) I tried wiggling the camera while taking some shots.
How interesting they turned out to be.
I guess it's really light painting using fireworks as the light source, but it certainly bumped up the "successful" shot rate. Mind you I think firework ICMs are rather a niche spectator sport compared to the classic approach, so I doubt my standing as a photographer has improved as a result. But it proved fun, which is the main thing for me.
I hope you enjoy this one anyway. It's a single exposure. Often the interestingness came from the transition between fireworks which is kind of the opposite of the requirement for the classic approach. Varying the movement over the exposure was also good fun.
Sadly because this was taken in 2019 it doesn't qualify for my motion 100x project where I am woefully behind once more...
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image.

Okay I had a brainwave, but this definitely is the last one this year. Have a great time tonight ! ;)
if I pass that tree ...,my feeling feels strange, like there are thousands of pairs of eyes watching me ..from the darkness of the tree . as if there are other inhabitants on other frequencies of the human world ..
The existence of other creatures is still a strong polemic, some do not believe, but not a few also believe it. In Indonesia, many people believe in the existence of invisible spirits. This is believed from generation to generation according to their respective customs and traditions. There are several places that are claimed as nesting places for supernatural beings, such as buildings or empty houses, graves, rivers, mountains, trees ..
I stepped and approached the tree even though it was horrified ..
when the frequency of my brain in Beta (BETA (above 12 hz or from 12 hz to 20 hz) is a brain wave that occurs when someone experiences mental activity that is fully awake.), nothing feels strange .. .
I try to reduce the frequency of my brain to THETA (THETA (4 hz - 8 hz) Are Brain Waves that occur when someone is experiencing light sleep, or very sleepy. Signs of breathing begin to slow down and deep. Besides people who are on the verge sleep, some people also produce Brain Waves (Brainwave) when trance, hypnosis, deep meditation, praying, undergoing religious rituals with solemnity. People who are able to drain chi energy, prana or inner energy), I started to hear the voice asking for help the sound is clear and small (like the sound of infrasound )
sometimes I think, people who died because of accidents, suicide or matters about the world have not been resolved. he died in a curious condition. He will be between the two sides of the world. the human world and the spirit world or the supernatural. he will occupy a tree, a building or a place that humans fear. he will be in that place until the rest of his life is used up to live in the world ...

To watch how I captured this shot watch my video diary of the trip: youtu.be/kAmUAoEpa48
An incredible cloud inversion blanketed the Isle of Man a few weeks ago producing out of this world photographic conditions but typically I was in work wasn’t it?!
However I had a brainwave on how I could shoot on a freezing January night to try and make the most of these rare Winter conditions. With this shot my objective was to capture an audacious image of light beams in the icy fog filled air in a 360-degree arc round the top of the Point of Ayre lighthouse. On the face of it, it would seem an easy shot, but it proved to be one of the most challenging photography ideas I’ve had in quite some time.
Main Exposure – f2.8, 10 seconds, ISO 1250, 14mm. Secondary Exposures for lighthouse beams – f2.8, 1.6 seconds, ISO 4000, 14mm

The stem of this flower is covered in Black Aphids, the ant is farming them for honeydew and saw the beetle off in less than a minute. The beetle took three or four hits of formic acid and left.
The ant is Common Black Ant
On a tangent..
I wonder if early Humans noticed what the ants were doing and had a brainwave?
What started out as a "Sunrise morning", quickly turned into an "is it even worth being here" morning, with extremely dense fog and constant rain... And then we had a brainwave... WATERFALLS!!
Did a lot of hiking today, causing tired legs and an ouchy little toe, but totally worth it.

It is those rare moments - when the stars align and the elements appear to melt together. It is always a process of transition from one state to another. When the mist is rolling through the valley striving over the frosty fir trees. When the very first rays of light illuminate the sky and this diffuse light gently hits the huge pines raging out of the leafless silver birches and both are showing their magical glow. Pretty sure this will look superb on a fine art matt paper print.

In 1872, Hiram Codd invented his famous 'Codd Bottle' - it was filled under gas pressure till a washer and glass marble were forced into the neck, forming a tight seal. Sadly, kids smashed the Codds to get at the marbles and any that escaped were too hard to clean so another brainwave bit the dust.
From another trip to my favourite lightpainting location, Coldstones Cut in North Yorkshire.
The shadow cast by the fake mini roundabout in the middle of the frame had nothing in it and seemed to make the previous images I'd shot incomplete. I was using continuous lighting at the rear of the frame and a brainwave or spark of an idea occured. At the end of the exposue, I decided to see what would happen if I panned the camera vertically. The rear continuous light left a rather pleasing light trail in the dark, unexposed section of the frame!
This is an image shot in one continuous exposure and is not a Photoshop creation.
More characters from Stargirl becuase the show is so good and a breath of fresh air from CW cringe, Doom Patrol crack, and Titans and Harley Quinn edginess.
L - R
S.T.R.I.P.E - Kinda just the best I can do. The best case would be a mech, but I'm not very good at those.
Icicle - Based on his show appearnce. Fig is self explanatory.
Brainwave - Also based on his show appearnce. There are probably better torsos, but this will do.
Brainwave Jr. - Kinda my own take, kinda his comic appearance. His comic suit is really easy to do with Flash parts, but I wanted to be unique.
The physical objects emanating these neon colours and shapes were even weirder than the light trails you see in the photo. Taken with my nifty little Sony compact: RX 100 Mark I.

It is so nice to hear the birds singing in spring, and the Sparrow is one of the sweetest.
This year I had a brainwave and bought a cheap baby monitor and put the microphone unit up under the roof of our bird feeder and the speaker unit inside our house by the large bay window that looks out at our feeder. It is so cool to sit and watch the bird activity now complete with a soundtrack! Wish I had thought of it years ago.

A Close Call
“Dusk and the sea is thus and so. The cat
from two fields away crossing through the grapes.
It is so quiet I can hear the air
in the canebrake. The blond wheat darkens.
The glaze is gone from the bay and the heat lets go.
They have not lit the lamp at the other farm yet
and all at once I feel lonely. What a surprise.
But the air stills, the heat comes back
and I think I am all right again.”

Macro Mondays Theme: Games People Play
This one is very abstract so I wonder if anyone can guess what children's game this is...?
Loved this theme, got way too many pictures to choose from! This was my favourite, undecided over which other shot to choose, especially as I had a brainwave whilst trying to sleep last night!
Explored on 12th October, highest position 15. Really appreciate all your comments, favourites and views. Thanks for looking, HMM!
Flair and Square cover photo 1st Feb 2016, this photo won the contest to be on the cover.
For 'Macro Mondays' theme of 'Gone Fishing'.
I thought twice about submitting anything this week.
So we have tins of sardines in the store cupboard !
This week we weren't going to the 'local' market for fresh fish !
I could have made lots of paper fish - thought this might be a good idea !!
The only fishing tackle I had in the house was a bit of nylon line !
Brainwave - my next door neighbour used to fish .......... !
Returned from a visit to Roy with a selection of reel, hooks, lines, sinkers, and two small boxes of flies !
The flies looked incredibly small to me - well they are fly size after all! And with such a choice it was difficult to chose just one. As long as I could pick it up it didn't really matter which.
So, this happens to be the first picture of the first selected fly.
Lit with one lamp and the fly on a white tile I rescued from my store. The lens lives on my camera and the result I got ............
Pentax Auto 110 70mm ................................................. less than 2 inches
for Macro Mondays theme, hot or cold. Not 100% over the moon with it; I had great difficulty with the white background veering to blue, but there's no ice cream left so unless I get another brainwave between now and tomorrow, this will be my contribution. The ice cream has light green ripples of syrup running through it which don't show up very well.

Between Lumiere London and the Canary Wharf Winter Lights, January was a busy month for London photographers -- and indeed anyone with a camera on their phone. Both events were free to the public, and featured a variety of light installations, from small-scale displays to large interactive artworks.
Word of the events spread through social media quickly, and before long the most popular installations were drawing considerable crowds. This was very much the case with "On Your Wavelength", a light and sound installation designed by Marcus Lyall, which I visited with fellow photographer Ali Jawed on the opening night. The light display is powered by 30,000 LEDs, and these are in turn "powered" by anyone who volunteers to stand on a small platform wearing an EEG headset, which reads their brain's electrical data and then converts this information into light patterns and sound.
Capturing this image was a challenge for a number of reasons: the installation's set-up and the crowds made using a tripod impossible; getting the shot meant waiting for a particularly photogenic individual to step onto the platform; and finally, in order to ensure straight vertical lines in the image, I knew I would need to stand up from the front row of the seating area and briefly block the view from the rest of the crowd. All of these put me outside of my comfort zone: bracketing exposures handheld in low light required a high ISO and steadier hands than mine; I also felt terrible about judging each volunteer as if they were a contestant on a reality show, and it's not in my nature to take a photograph at the expense of someone's else's opportunity to do the same. With all of this said, the D810 handles noise effectively, the majority of the audience were understanding when I blocked their view, and volunteers who stepped onto the platform were almost all women, so I knew I had my shot the moment a guy volunteered and drew audible gasps from the audience -- probably because he was remarkably tall, but perhaps simply because he was a guy.
The image is a blend of five exposures, combined in Photoshop using a combination of luminosity masks and radial gradient masks. Using dark luminosity masks I was able to accurately isolate the individual from the shadows in the background, applying brighter exposures to the light display's midtones and shadows and at the same time preserving the vibrance and energy of the highlights without blowing them out. Once the exposures were blended, I used a reddish/orange-toned Solid Colour layer set to Soft Light and targeted this to the highlights to gently warm the far side of the light display, emphasising the rainbow of colours which the volunteer's brainwaves were apparently generating. Using Colour Balance adjustments and a Colour Lookup set to the Foggy Night preset, I then pushed the shadows towards a colder finish, emphasising the scene's futuristic aspect. Finally, using Nik's Silver Efex Pro set to Luminosity, I amplified the whites and increased the Soft Contrast across the image, darkening the shadows and hopefully drawing the viewer's eye to the dramatic light at the centre of the light display.
The final result captures a dazzling light display, as well as the human element that makes the concept so innovative, but it was also quite heartwarming to see how this year's Winter Lights festivals brought out a creative side to people across London, some of whom were brave enough to volunteer to be part of the interactive displays and be photographed in the process.

The week before last I was in Cornwall for my first holiday in ages. We arrived and had a little walk along a quay close to our accommodation. There wasn't much about until my wife spotted this dunlin on the shore as we were walking back to the car. I got my camera out and was trying to get a low angle but the sun was directly on the shore meaning the light was really challenging and the bird was also working it's way away from me. I then had a brainwave, off came my shoes and I waded out into the sea putting the sun behind me. Interestingly the bird instantly became more obliging coming much closer to me than when I was on the shore
I left Hoda a rambly (4-minute-long) voicemail the other evening as I was shoe-shopping for the sister's engagement. Somewhere in there, I mentioned the turquoise flip-flops I was looking at and contemplating whether or not to buy, even though that hadn't been the point of my shopping session.
Half an hour later, just as I got home, I received a text: "Buy the flip-flops!"
Me: "=) I already did!"
Hoda: "Hahaha good girl!"
[+]
So here you are, Hoda, the flip-flops you were somehow a part of purchasing. This is Addison St. in Berkeley, with the poetry plaques on the sidewalks. The cigarette is not mine, but the cherry Italian soda is (except it has cream in it, which technically makes it a French soda, who knew?), and I was aiming my camera at my feetS just as you texted this afternoon asking me to send you my address ASAP. Tooo much the goodness with the brainwaves! The bricks all say "Make Art," by the way. Throwing in a little Arabic makes everything awesome.
So! As you carry on with your rockstar adventures, my fellow Californian, may you find home wherever you go. And may you always have all that is good and beautiful and blessed, BETA ;)
Now, for the other important estuffS:
1. Take lotsa footoos!
2. Eat lotsa potatoes
3. Don't forget to stab esstyouuuupeeeed people
4. Reply to all my important STOCKER textmessages. And they will all be important.
As our friend, Mr. Malikshahzadaak, would say, "You will be thare tomaro? I think now we chat daily!"
That is all.
Didn't fancy going out today so had a creative brainwave at home which involved hurting some eggs, I didn't like the look of them anyway.

Inspired by Tom Green. Jusk kidding. Or am I?...
This one started off really chunky and with awkward angles so I just went with it rather than try to smooth them out. Kinda feel like my last couple of Vic Vipers have diminished in quality so I might quit while I'm behind. If I have another brainwave for NoVVember I'll build it in the next week but I think I'm done. What a blast!
So, what's next month???
