I spent a couple of hours wandering around Sussex Prairie Garden this afternoon looking for subjects for this week's 52Photos group challenge. I found lots, but decided on this metal flower rather than a real one because I've done lots of those recently. Anyway, I like a bit of rust. :)
The short-eared owl is a species of typical owl. Owls belonging to genus Asio are known as the eared owls, as they have tufts of feathers resembling mammalian ears. These "ear" tufts may or may not be visible Photo taken along the Aberdeenshire coastline.

Macro Close Up of Dandelion Seed Head. Nature Walk with my camera at Lehaunstown and Tully, Dublin, Ireland
I’ve been avoiding people long before the Coronavirus..
I am now in isolation, due to my health conditions I am a health risk. But because I spend lots of time by myself my life feels relatively normal. Only now I have an added bonus that my daughter is home from school, I have so much to be grateful for.
I’m so thankful that I am a photograph hoarder, I now have thousands of photos to play with, re-edit etc plus our garden is full of wildlife, so lots of things to photograph still and now we have more time to spend gardening. Life is good.
This Royal Doulton miniature figure has unfortunately received a chip on his top hat. Interestingly I had never noticed the freckles on his face until I took this close up.
I used window light and A4 silver card reflectors.
The African elephant (Loxodonta) is a genus comprising two living elephant species, the African bush elephant (L. africana) and the smaller African forest elephant (L. cyclotis). Both are herbivores and live in groups. They have grey skin and differ in the size of their ears and tusks, and in the shape and size of their skulls.
Both species are listed as Vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List since 2004, and are threatened by habitat loss and fragmentation. Poaching for the illegal ivory trade is a threat in several range countries as well.
Loxodonta is one of two existing genera of the family Elephantidae. The name refers to the lozenge-shaped enamel of their molar teeth. Fossil remains of Loxodonta species have been excavated in Africa, dating to the middle Pliocene.
For a through the lens Week 4 Theme of Close Up- These Acorns were relatively high up the tree so this was the closest I could get. The tree is turning a bit brown but I think largely from the heat of summer. I have seen lots of leaves blowing around recently due to leaf die and drop.
Lockhart River, some 800kms north of Cairns and reached by a wild and bumpy road. Site also of an airport and a rich WWII history when thousands of US and Australian servicemen were living here to defend the northern coasts of Australia. It's also home to a number of Aboriginal peoples and has a well known artistic community which we visited. I now have a painting by Fiona Onmeenyo (japingkaaboriginalart.com/collections/fiona-omeenyo-paint... ) which will hang as a momento of my visit. 50% of the profits go to the artist, the rest to the community arts centre for equipment and running costs.
This close-up photograph captures the rich textures and deep hues of assorted dried flowers, a subject that often symbolizes eternity, memory, and nostalgia. Unlike fresh blooms, dried flowers represent a beauty that endures over time, often used to signify lasting love or preserved memories.
Symbolism and Meaning Eternal Love & Resilience: Dried flowers are powerful symbols of bonds that survive the passage of time. Nostalgia: They serve as physical touchstones, capturing a moment or season frozen in time. Transformation: They embody a beauty that ages gracefully, offering a different kind of wisdom than fresh blooms.
The is a "close-up" shot with the NOOKY-HESUM close-focusing device, which allows focusing down to 50 cm (1:6.5). Focusing with the NOOKY-HESUM implies peering through the left peep-hole to get the focus right and then very softly, without changing the distance, switching to the right-hand peep-hole for the composition.
Not a terribly interesting photo, but one that shows bokeh, sharpness and colour rendering of the Summar lens, for what it's worth.
And the music is here ---> "Summar Wine!"
