2023 Weekly Alphabet Challenge 9/52 ~ Identical

 

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated

"Bokeh in the Foreground"

 

For this challenge, "bokeh" is defined in this way:

 

"the visual quality of the out-of-focus areas of a photographic image, especially as rendered by a particular lens."

 

I struggled to get this right and I am not 100% happy with this but I hope it meets the challenge.

 

MY THANKS TO ALL WHO VISIT AND COMMENT IT IS APPRECIATED

1973 Dodge Challenger at the Essen Motorshow.

Picking out a single roseate spoonbill from a large flock of white ibis was a bit of a challenge.

It struck me when my friend Robert Pacheco mentioned that my image of LV 18 was a moving light house, I thought how unusual that may be world wide.

 

Unmanned light ships were introduced around the UK’s coasts as far back as 250 years ago, this original photograph, (which I own) was taken on the 19th July 1927.

 

The approaches to the Thames Estuary from the North Sea are littered with huge sand bars just beneath the seas surface, these sand bars are constantly moving, so light vessels were easy to reposition accordingly.

 

Unfortunately we are not allowed to use other photographers photographs in our challenge, and rightly so, but I thought this image was worth sharing.

I was not fond of this but have come up with this, the software I used removed all exif data so I tried different software and that did the same. I used a free copy of photo pad.

Here is a link to the proper picture,complete with exif data!

I thought this would be easy but with grey skies etc, I didn't like any of my shots. I was out watering and casually took this pic looking up at my chimney pots, Thanks goodness the sky had cleared!!

The resistance.

Getting as close as I possibly can on a circuit board, harvested from a remote-controlled power outlet whose remote went belly-up, capturing examples of tiny surface-mount devices, possibly resistors. The ruler scale at the bottom is in millimeters.

 

Taken with the Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens at 5X magnification. At that setting, the lens has to be less than an inch (25.4mm) from the subject, making lighting difficult. The lens and camera were attached to a macro focusing rail, a necessary but very finicky device (more so at extreme magnification) used to move the camera fore and aft to focus. Given my sometimes uncooperative set of hands I have, it was a challenge, indeed.

Saturday Self Challenge: Surprise

When we saw our 14 year old grandson just over two months ago, he was playing pleasant tunes on the piano, Returning this week, we were amazed to hear classical music wafting through the house. Here he playing the main theme from the movie "Interstellar". A most pleasant surprise indeed.

A challenge!

We have quite a few of these in our garden.

They are very common and taste delicious, but never seen in supermarkets and rarely eaten.

What is it?

One single long exposure. No photoedition : straight out of the camera except for contrast/crop.

 

Despite my (deplorable) sense of humor, I wish you the best for 2017. :)
