(part of a project I'm working on for my photo class. It's one of three for a "hoax". My idea is that there are cannibals in the mirrors that kidnap people. My teacher has a preference for more non-cutesty photography.)
(Done with this projects :) - suh-weet!)
Comments always appreciated, as long as you keep it clean - I love to hear your feedback! xx
A rare night in at home and trying out a couple of new things. Firstly, after a suggestion from a friend, fishnet tights with my dress.
Secondly, and much more daring, a corset and hold-ups!

Many thanks for your visits, faves and comments. Cheers. ....from a walk through Oxley Creek Common. Oxley Creek Common is home to a remarkable variety of birds. An experienced observer can find as many as 70 species in one hour of observation during the spring about 10% of all Australia's bird species and several times the diversity one could find walking the suburbs. In the past eleven years over 190 species have been recorded on the Common. (Source: University of Queensland)
Double-barred Finch
Scientific Name: Taeniopygia bichenovii
Description: The Double-barred Finch is one of the long-tailed grass-finches and is notable for its 'owl-faced' features, having a white face bordered black. It is grey-brown, with white underparts banded black above and below the chest, giving the species its name. The wings are black, spotted white, the tail is black and the bill and legs are blueish-grey. Juveniles are dulller, with indistinct chest bars. These grass-finches usually feed in flocks and have a bouncing, undulating flight pattern.
Similar species: There are two subspecies of Double-barred Finch: the eastern race has a white rump and the western race has a black rump. Otherwise, distinguished form other finches by its 'owl-face'.
Distribution: The Double-barred Finch is found in the Kimberley region through to west of the Gulf of Carpentaria (the western race annulosa), and then from Cape York down the east coast to south-eastern Victoria (the eastern race, bichenovii).
Habitat: The Double-barred Finch prefers dry grassy woodlands and scrublands, open forests and farmlands. It is never far from water.
Seasonal movements: Nomadic; only an occasional visitor to extreme south-eastern part of range.
Feeding: The Double-barred Finch feeds on the ground on seeds. It will also take insects, especially when breeding. It usually feeds in groups or flocks of up to 40 birds.
Breeding: The Double-barred Finch builds a rounded nest, with a side entrance and short tunnel into a inner chamber lined with fine grass, feathers and plant down. The nest is placed between 1 m to 5 m from the ground in pandanus or thick shrubs, or even in the eaves of a building, often close to an active wasps' nest. Both parents incubate and feed the young.
The nestlings of Double-barred Finches beg with their heads down to one side. This is unique to the grass-finch and waxbill family.
Calls: A brassy, drawn-out 'tzeeaat, tzeeaat'; also a low 'tat tat'
Minimum Size: 10cm
Maximum Size: 12cm
Average size: 11cm
Average weight: 10g
Breeding season: After rain in north and inland.
Clutch Size: 4 to 7 eggs
Incubation: 14 days
Nestling Period: 21 days

Because this issue is long, it continues in the comment section
The roof cracks beneath my feet. The coward has fled to the other side before I arrived.
“Look what the cat dragged in.”
I clench my fists in anger.
“Did it feel good? Killing him? Killing a poor defenseless man. A man who was my friend!” I shout.
He smiles.
“Oh it felt good. But I didn't kill just him. I killed his whore wife and the nurses attending him. Nothing better than a good barbeque, ay?” He laughs at me.
“You will pay for your deeds Solar. I'll personally make sure of it.”
“Then what are you waiting for? I'm yours.”
We stare into each other's eyes, waiting, anticipating what's to come. The tension snaps and we rush into each other's fists. I feel his punch connect with my stomach. Another one hits my bottom jaw. But I also hear him gasp for air as my fist meets his chest. I take a swing at his jaw but he dodges, parries, and my my left shoulder explodes with pain. He uses this to his advantage and takes a jab at my left cheek followed by a hit to my nose. I stagger backwards, disoriented from his attacks.
“Tired already?” He asks with a smirk.
“I'm just getting warmed up.” I reply as I wipe the blood from my lips.
We begin to circle around each other, our eyes locked to each others. His eyes are cold, but I can see the fire behind the ice, waiting to be unleashed.
“You think rage will help you. But it will only destroy you.” He says just as he leaps at me, and knocks me down. He grips my left arm and pushes it down. I feel it begin to burn, as he heats up his hand. As I open my mouth to freeze it, he punches my face, disorienting me.
“You are blinded by rage. I know how it feels, since I've been there, just under different circumstances.”
He lets go of my left arm, and hits me in the face with his burning fist, causing my cheek to blister with blood.
“I grew tired of being Zod's little lapdog. So as we were getting inside our life pods to escape, I tampered with his. His pod exploded upon liftoff.”
“You..you killed Zod?..” I mutter in shock.
“It was easier done than said. And now, now I’ve left that foolish madman. He thought he could control me, tell me what to do. No..I've had enough about being second in command. Now it's time for me to shine. And what better way to do so, than to kill the one person who could stop me in doing so. You.”
He raises his fist, ready to strike once again. I grab onto the floor and tear out a piece of it the size of my hand and swiftly hit him in the side of his head letting him roll over me.
“I thought there were more kryptonians.” I say as I get back up on my feet.
“There are. But none as powerful as you and I.” He gets up and outstretches his right arm in my direction. Seeing it begin to turn redder and blacker I freeze it with my breath. The ice cracks under the heat. I manage to duck right before the fire burns my head. I roll over to the left and fire my heat vision into his right knee, causing him to lose balance. He growls as his other arm turns into flame as well. He lunges at me and I welcome him free handedly as I drive my knee into his gut. He lands on his back with a *thump*. I get on top of him and before he can react I drive my fist into his teeth, shattering them.
“Ghet offv mge” he mumbles as his whole body turns into fire causing me to get off of him and take a few steps backwards.
“Solar I think you should cool off befo…” The explosion sends me to the very edge of the rooftop. It's a miracle that the roof hasn't caved in by now. I wave my hands through the air for the smoke to clear a bit faster. Finally I get a good look at the effects this had on him. His body is completely destroyed, the burnt flesh is falling off of him revealing charred bones beneath. I look into his eyes that now scream madness and try to look for at least a spark of humanity but I can’t find anything. His body twitches, and his breathing is fast and heavy. I wonder if this is somehow my fault. Suddenly his body bursts into flame once again, furthermore hurting him.
“Solar you need to stop this, look at what it's done to you.” I try pleading with him, and he responds by shrieking in a unnatural voice.
“I...I'm going to tear you apart.” Unlike the rest of him, his voice is cold and menacing. He swings towards my head, I dodge and parry with the same move except mine connects. As my fist meets his face, his skin burns my own. I breathe in the hot air, and exhale cold air into his direction, diminishing his powers. I take a jab at his lower jaw, and another one at his neck. He growls, and counters with a kick to my left leg. He takes a swing with his fist, but I catch it in the air with my hand. I crush it, and break it. He yells out in pain, and rams me down into the floor. The roof finally gives in and we fall into the fiery inferno down below.
----
Images flash in my mind. Her. Them. The ones I left behind. Am I a coward? Was I wrong to save myself? I see their hands outstretched to me. They want me to join them. But I can’t. Not now. Never. I look away from the light and back into the dark.

On Explore - February 8, 2024 - Thanks to all my Flickr friends!
We know that ladybugs hibernate in the cold, but I even came across them in the park last month when the sun showed itself. It is also possible that this individual is looking for a new place for itself. It would be fair to say that I was surprised by the ladybug that I chanced upon on a snowdrop on a cloudy and cold morning. This is the photo I captured by quickly grabbing my camera from my car and taking it without a tripod. The delicate balance of nature never fails to amaze me.
Ladybugs, like many other insects, go through a period of dormancy during the winter months, known as hibernation. During hibernation, ladybugs typically seek out sheltered spots such as under leaf litter, in tree bark crevices, or inside buildings to protect themselves from the cold temperatures. They enter a state of reduced metabolic activity, conserving energy until warmer weather returns.
Ladybugs hibernate in groups, which provides them with added protection and warmth. They release a chemical signal that attracts other ladybugs to gather in clusters, known as aggregations. These aggregations can sometimes be quite large, with thousands of ladybugs huddled together.
As the weather begins to warm up in spring, ladybugs become more active and start to emerge from their hibernation sites. They begin searching for food and mates to start the reproductive cycle anew. This emergence from hibernation is often observed by people who may find ladybugs crawling out of their winter hiding spots and venturing into the open once again.
Ladybug populations in the UK can vary depending on factors such as habitat, climate, and food availability. While specific population numbers may not be readily available, ladybugs are common and widespread throughout the UK, with numerous species found across various habitats including gardens, parks, woodlands, and agricultural fields.
Ladybugs play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance and supporting biodiversity. Some of the benefits they provide in natural life include:
Controlling nature's pests: Ladybugs are voracious predators of aphids, scale insects, mites, and other garden pests. By feeding on these pests, ladybugs help to keep their populations in check, reducing the need for chemical pesticides in agriculture and gardening.
Pollination: While ladybugs are primarily known as predators, some species also feed on pollen and nectar. As they move from flower to flower in search of food, they inadvertently aid in pollination, facilitating the reproduction of flowering plants.
Indicator Species: Changes in ladybug populations can serve as indicators of environmental health. Monitoring ladybug populations can help scientists assess the impact of habitat loss, climate change, and pollution on ecosystems.
Food Source for Predators: Ladybugs serve as an important food source for various predators, including birds, spiders, and other insects. Their presence contributes to the food web and supports the survival of higher trophic levels in ecosystems.
Aesthetic Value: Ladybugs are beloved by many people for their bright colors, distinctive markings, and gentle demeanor. Their presence adds beauty and charm to gardens and natural landscapes, enhancing the overall aesthetic value of these environments.
Overall, ladybugs play multifaceted roles in ecosystems, from providing valuable ecosystem services to captivating human observers with their fascinating behavior and appearance. Protecting and conserving ladybug populations is essential for maintaining healthy ecosystems and promoting sustainable agriculture and gardening practices.
I've captured some moments with my camera, and I sincerely hope you'll find the same joy in viewing these images as I did in capturing them.
Thank you so much for visiting my stream, whether you comments , favorites or just have a look.
I appreciate it very much, wishing the best of luck and good light.

Dollarbird
Scientific Name: Eurystomus orientalis
Description: The Dollarbird is the sole Australian representative of the Roller family, so named because of their rolling courtship display flight. The Dollarbird visits Australia each year to breed. It has mostly dark brown upperparts, washed heavily with blue-green on the back and wing coverts. The breast is brown, while the belly and undertail coverts are light, and the throat and undertail glossed with bright blue. The flight feathers of the wing and tail are dark blue. The short, thick-set bill is orange-red, tipped with black. In flight, the pale blue coin-shaped patches towards the tips of its wings, that gave the bird its name, are clearly visible. Both sexes are similar, although the female is slightly duller. Young Dollarbirds are duller than the adults and lack the bright blue gloss on the throat. The bill and feet are brownish in colour instead of red. The origin of the Dollardbird's name stems from the silvery, circular patches on the underside of the wings, thought to resemble the American silver dollar coin.
Distribution: The Dollarbird arrives in northern and eastern Australia in September each year to breed. In March or April the birds return to New Guinea and adjacent islands to spend the winter.
Habitat: In Australia, the Dollarbird inhabits open wooded areas, normally with mature, hollow-bearing trees suitable for nesting
Feeding: Dollarbirds feed almost exclusively on flying insects. They search for food from a conspicuous perch and then capture it in skilful aerial pursuits, before returning to the same perch. Occasionally, Dollarbirds have been seen feeding on grasshoppers on the ground, although this practice is uncommon.
Breeding: During breeding season, pairs of Dollarbirds are often seen flying in characteristic rolling flights. These flights are more common in the evening, and are accompanied by cackling calls. The white eggs are laid in an unlined tree hollow and are incubated by both adults. The young birds are also cared for by both parents. The same nesting site may be used for several years.
Calls: The distinctive, harsh 'kak-kak-kak' call is repeated several times, and is often given in flight.
Minimum Size: 26cm
Maximum Size: 31cm
Average size: 28cm
Average weight: 123g
Breeding season: October to January
Clutch Size: 3 to 4
