Description: 2014-04-12 - Making plans the night before for a milkyway session that I so yearn for, it was called off upon waking up at 2am to a heavy rain. Making my way back to bed, I made a mental note to wake up in a few hours with hope that I would get some nice sunrise instead at the Putrajaya Dam. Arriving late at location that morning to a sky that starts to "burn", I was struggling to decide on the composition that I would stayed for my time-lapse shoot. After a few minutes (and losing some of the "burning sky" moment), I decided to stay at this composition for a whole 600++ frames. Alhamdulillah the clouds formation and lights fall was one of the beautiful sunrise that I have witness. The image was one of the frames in the middle of the time-lapse session that day as the sun starts to come out of the horizon.

Brown Honeyeater
Scientific Name: Lichmera indistincta
Description: The Brown Honeyeater is a medium-small pale grey-brown honeyeater with a distinctive yellow tuft behind its eye. It also has yellow to olive wing patches and tail panels. It is pale grey below, darker olive brown above and has a long curved black bill. Young birds are paler with more yellow colouring and a yellow gape (open bill). It has a fast, undulating flight and is seen either singly, in pairs or small flocks in flowering trees and shrubs.
Similar species: The Brown Honeyeater is similar to the Dusky Honeyeater, Myzomela obscura, in size and shape, but this species is much darker brown and lacks the tuft behind the eye and the yellowish wing patches. It could also be confused with females or young birds of the Scarlet Honeyeater, M. sanguinolenta, or Red-headed Honeyeater, M. erythrocephala, but these are smaller with shorter tails, lack the eye tuft, often have a reddish face and have very different calls.
Distribution: The Brown Honeyeater is widespread in Australia, from south-western Australia across the Top End to Queensland, and through New South Wales on the eastern side of the Great Dividing Range to Swansea in the Hunter Region. It is rarely seen southwards from Lake Macquarie to the Parramatta River, Sydney, but is regularly recorded in suitable habitats such as Homebush Bay and Kurnell in small numbers, and is a vagrant to the Illawarra region. It is found west of the Great Dividing Range in New South Wales to Tamworth and Gunnedah and south-west to Hillston. The Brown Honeyeater is also found in Bali and the Lesser Sundas, Indonesia, Aru Island and in parts of Papua New Guinea.
Habitat: The Brown Honeyeater is found in a wide range of wooded habitats, usually near water. It is often found in mangroves and woodlands or dense forests along waterways. It can also be found in mallee, spinifex woodlands, low dense shrublands, heaths and saltmarshes, as well as in monsoon forests or rainforests in the Top End. It is common in parks, gardens and street trees in urban areas as well as on farms and in remnant vegetation along roadsides.
Seasonal movements: Nomadic or partly nomadic in response to flowering of food plants. Some seasonal movements in parts of its range.
Feeding: The Brown Honeyeater feeds on nectar and insects, foraging at all heights in trees and shrubs. It may be seen in mixed flocks with other honeyeaters. In Western Australia, these include the Singing Honeyeater, White-fronted Honeyeater and the Red Wattlebird, while in the Top End it is often seen with the Dusky Honeyeater. However, it will be displaced at bird feeders by larger birds.
Breeding: During the breeding season, male Brown Honeyeaters defend a nesting territory by singing from tall trees and they stand guard while the female builds the nest and lays the eggs. The small neat cup-nest is made from fine bark, grasses and plant down, bound with spiders web, and is slung by the rim in a shrub, fern or tree at up to 5 m from the ground and is usually very well-hidden by thick foliage. Only the female incubates, but both sexes feed the young. Nest predators include Pied Currawongs, snakes and cats. Brush Cuckoos, Pallid Cuckoos,Horsfield's Bronze-Cuckoos and Shining Bronze-Cuckoos will parasitise nests.
Calls: Clear, ringing, musical: 'whit, whit, whitchit'
Minimum Size: 12cm
Maximum Size: 16cm
Average size: 14cm
Average weight: 11g
Breeding season: April to November in north; June to February in south
Clutch Size: 2 to 3 eggs

Last night was a "honey moon", so called because the June full moon is the one most likely of all the full moons of the year to glow yellow throughout the night. I took this shot East of San Jose airport - you can see a rooftop construction, the tail of an aircraft, and Mt. Hamilton in the background.
I took multiple exposures, but I noticed that the moon is moving too fast at 200mm zoom, so there was ghosting between the exposures. I post processed a single RAW exposure into a balanced HDR photo to enhance the micro-contrast.

Pheasant Coucal
Scientific Name: Centropus phasianinus
Description: A large 'pheasant-like', ground-dwelling cuckoo, the Pheasant Coucal has a long tail and short rounded wings. In its breeding plumage, it has a black head, neck and underbody with the upperparts and wings reddish-brown with black and cream barring and the black tail is barred orange. Out of breeding, the head and back return to a reddish chestnut colour and the underparts are cinnamon brown, with all streaked boldly white. The eye is red. Sexes are similar in plumage, but females are larger than males. Young birds look like paler, non-breeding adults with orange spots on the head, neck and upper body. When disturbed, coucals run rather than fly, or fly clumsily, plunging into cover. Unlike most other cuckoos, the Pheasant Coucal is not a nest parasite.
Distribution: The Pheasant Coucal is found in northern and eastern Australia, as well as New Guinea and East Timor. It is found from the Pilbara, Western Australia, to south-eastern New South Wales. In New South Wales it is mainly found east of the Great Dividing Range from the Queensland border to the southern Hunter region, with some around Sydney and further south to Illawarra.
Habitat: The Pheasant Coucal prefers dense understorey vegetation, particularly grasses, rushes, bracken and sedges, in open forests and woodlands, and around wetlands. Often found in sugar cane plantations near wetlands, on farmlands with thick grasses and weed-infested thickets, such as Lantana. Often seen in parks, gardens and along roads or railway lines.
Seasonal movements: Sedentary.
Feeding: The Pheasant Coucal feeds on the ground on large insects, frogs, lizards, eggs and young of birds and, sometimes, small mammals.
Breeding: Pheasant Coucals form lasting pairs and, unlike other Australian cuckoos, build their own nests and raise their young themselves. The nest is usually hidden in thick grass or sugar cane or in weedy thickets and is a platform of sticks, grass or rushes, lined with leaves and grasses. The male usually incubates the eggs and feeds the young, with the female helping with feeding. More than one clutch can be laid in one season. The Pheasant Coucal is the only Australian cuckoo to build its own nest. It also lives and nests on the ground, unlike other cuckoos.
Calls: Deep, hollow 'oop-oop-oop-oop'; also a metallic tapping call.
Minimum Size: 50cm
Maximum Size: 70cm
Average size: 60cm
Average weight: 380g
Breeding season: September to March
Clutch Size: 3 to 5
Incubation: 15 days
Nestling Period: 13 days

From "The Naked Portrait" series. There is something special in the look of a head-and-shoulders portrait taken when naked – often this can be missed because the viewer naturally wants to take in the whole view. I am therefore making a series of "naked portraits", cropped from original nude photos, which can also be flagged "safe" so they can be seen by a wider range of people. This one was just topless, not completely nude (until a few minutes later, when I didn't get around to taking another photo) but in a rather daring situation – a public park. I think it captures the same feeling...
I found another fun photo taken in 1989, of M sitting seductively in a wonderful field of buttercups on a hot summer's day. We were in parkland near Sevenoaks and had a couple of hours free while the kids were off on a pony ride.
See also the sequel...
Tech. note: scanned Fujichrome slide, taken on an Olympus OM2n with a Zuiko 50mm F3.5 macro lens. The original was a selective enlargement of about ¼ of the frame (I didn't have my camera bag and tele lens with me but luckily did have my camera) and this is less than ⅒ of that, so the technical quality is very limited, but it's still a favourite of mine.
Comments and comparisons are always welcome.

White-necked Heron (This one was quite elusive. It took me 5 days to get close enough to shoot it.)
Scientific Name: Ardea pacifica
Description: The White-necked Heron is a large heron with a white head and a long white neck with a double line of black spots running down the front. The upperparts of the body are slate-black, with plum-coloured nuptial plumes on the back and breast during the breeding season. Underparts are grey streaked with white. The bill is black, the naked facial skin is is blue or yellow, the eyes are green, and the legs and feet are black. The White-necked Heron is sometimes known as the Pacific Heron.
Similar species: The Pied Heron, A. picata, is a similar slate-black heron with contrasting white throat and neck, but it is a much smaller (43 cm - 52 cm) bird, with a crested dark cap that extends below the eyes, yellow legs, and a bill that is mostly yellow.
Distribution: The White-necked Heron is distributed throughout mainland Australia, inhabiting mainly fresh water wetlands.
Habitat: Although White-necked Herons are sometimes seen in tidal areas, most are found in shallow fresh waters, including farm dams, flooded pastures, claypans, and even roadside ditches.
Seasonal movements: White-necked Herons have regular winter or spring movements in many areas, but little is known of their patterns of movement.
Feeding: White-necked Herons feed by wading in shallow water or stalking through wet grass looking for fish, amphibians, crustaceans and insects. Like other herons, the White-necked Heron has a special hinge mechanism at the sixth vertebra that allows them to rapidly extend their folded neck and so catch unwary prey.
Breeding: White-necked Herons will breed in any month of the year in response to good rain, but most breeding occurs between September and December. The nest is a loose platform in a living tree such as a river red gum near or over water. The nests may be solitary or in loose colonies. Eggs are incubated by both parents.
Calls: A loud croak is uttered as an alarm call. Other gutteral calls are uttered at the nest.
Minimum Size: 76cm
Maximum Size: 106cm
Average size: 91cm
Average weight: 900g
Breeding season: Mainly September to December.
Clutch Size: Up to six, usually three or four.
Incubation: 30 days
Nestling Period: 45 days

PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVE!
I got that Microfighter Resistance Fighter set, and immediately fell in love with the figure.
I didn't really get any of The Force Awakens sets when they came out, so it was my first time getting the new pilot suit and helmet.
The figure was practically perfect already, but I wanted to add a little more.
Rebel Pilot:
I immediately changed the head, cause I love how these new heads look. The main figure details were all kept with same with the exception of a few. The white print seemed to be washed out, so I painted over it with a firmer shade of white. I added some black boots, just for a little contrast, and changed the color of the gray tubing on his thighs. The gap between the torso and legs was filled in. The whole figure was then washed in dark brown for a better look. I added simp pockets on the sides of his arms and legs and wrapped his hands in Etape. The helmet has battle damage of various browns, black, and even white for paint scratches.
For his accessory I made an SE-14C. The base was a brickarms gun, with the back chopped off and sights/piping glued on. The whole thing was painted in a matte black. I think I got the likeness pretty well, but I'm missing a side barrel.
I think that's it!
Overall I'm super pleased with how this turned out, as it is one of the first Star Wars figs I've done in a while.
Thanks if you comment and read!
