poss contribution (#1) to MM challenge for 27/4/20, theme: Windowsill
something green after last week's yellow - I know there is no logical progression there but...
one of the pitiful herbs (rosemary, just in case!) that "grow" on my kitchen windowsill. The background ins't really real it's a piece of felt put in front of the window to block out the mess of the outside and to soften the light coming in
This is my contribution to this weeks Macro Monday theme of Rock;
I collected these small rocks/ pebbles/stones from a beach on the Isle of Lewis and Harris and kept them for their colours and textures. I like them and I hope you do too! HMM
My contribution to the Macro Mondays Group Challenge for 3 Octoberr 2016 - "In a Row"
I origianlly went looking for 2 people arguing but realised that wasn't what this was about!
My final contribution to Flickr this year is an abstract image of a bridge between two buildings. One can also see it as a transition between 2 years. In reality, it is the by Daniel Liebeskind designed Kö Bogen buildings in Düsseldorf.
I wish you all a great and inspiring 2026!

contribution to MM challenge for 26/10/20, theme: one colo(u)r
was tempted to replicate the recent "yellow" theme! I missed the last time one colour was the theme (I think) but did put an image up that met the criteria, perhaps the following week (Feb 2018 ish). I've also taken the opportunity to catch up with the recent "string" theme so it's 2-4-1 today only.
contribution to MM for Monday 24/6/19 theme "Styling Food on a Fork"
Another of those challenges that does nothing (good) for the waistline. But surely one of the best combinations there is...
other than putting maple syrup on anything. Or smoked paprika with pork. Or chocolate with chocolate.
stobist bit:
single Nikon SB900 set off to the right, aimed slightly behind the strawb and with the diffuser down. set to TTL with no compensation about 15" from subject. silver reflector set infront of camera to reflect natural light coming in from left rear
My contribution for this week's theme "morning", for the Swedish photo group Fotosondag.
Torsdagmorgon. Det var nästan lite Jack the Ripper-känsla när man gick från Slussen ner över Skeppsbron och vidare till Blasieholmen. Tyckte mig höra en mistlur ljuda, men det var bara en kråka som intagit kalufsen på Gustav III, och gällt skrek ut sin herre på täppan-seger. Passade bra att du intog huvudstaden just den här veckan när det stod "morgon" på tema-schemat. Tack, Dimman, tack.

Gardens of Great Britain
This is a series of photographs taken in the many gardens we have visited over a long period time. It never ceases to amaze how many gardens there are and the variety of planting they show, long may it continue.
Today’s contribution comes from RHS Rosemoor, Torrington, EX38 8PH, North Devon. Truly a terrific garden to visit.
MM contribution 18/3/19, theme something to do with the first letter of my surname!!
Well this does indeed begin with the first letter of my surname. It then goes on to use the second, third and fourth letters of my surname in order. Then it stops.
Some flash usage here again but not interesting as it was all trial and error!!

#DutchAngle
Please press "Z" :)
A very unusual (for me) MM contribution in quite a few ways, because it is a photo that I have neither taken at home nor specifically for the "dutch angle" theme – this fluffy feather was a chance discovery at last Wednesday's (fabuloutastic, I should add) photowalk at the Olympic stadium; I didn't even think about the theme when I found this pretty feather in a corner of a step of one of the many, many staircases there. And of course this isn't the photo from that walk that I'd planned to upload first, either ;-). But often things don't turn out as expected (something which happens a lot lately when it comes to MMs), and that's not always a bad thing.
This small feather, about 6 cm / 2,3 inches long, came to my rescue when my original idea didn't work out – which every way I tried to make it work (it was a small spoke reflector which I'd once found in the street; the idea was to capture its distorted reflection which made it look like a flowing piece of honeycomb, something that came to my mind because of the reflector's honeycombed structure; well, to make it short, I never managed to get the distorted reflection sharp enough so it would be pleasant to look at; maybe I can still make it work later... I also tried to magnify those honecomb patterns inside of the reflector by using the extension tubes and the Raynox DCR-250 close-up lens – but, no, it wasn't meant to work).
But back to my "Olympic feather": Most conveniently, I had already taken it at a dutch angle (Mr Freud, can you hear me?). It is a single handheld picture taken with the Ricoh (the GRIII rocks!) which I've sharpened in Topaz Sharpen AI, and then further processed it in Nik's HDR Efex Pro – I started with the "En Vogue" preset "Cool Deep" which I'd then still tweaked a little here or there. And because the staircase I'd found this feather on had been in a shadowy corner of the stadium (and the feather in an even more shadowy corner of the step), the DNG outcome was rather dull; to add some much needed light I went into ON1 where I added a "Sunflare" texture filter to the upper left corner of the image; back in LR I added the preset "Soft Fog" and tweaked the luminosity and saturation sliders for a dreamy look.
HMM, Everyone, stay safe and healthy!
Nicht das, was ich eigentlich für's Thema machen wollte, aber das passiert mir in letzter Zeit häufiger ;-) Meine ursprüngliche Idee war es, die verzerrte Spiegelung eines kleinen Speichenreflektors (ein Straßenfund) auf einer Spiegelfliese zu fotografieren; die Verzerrung ließ den Reflektor wie ein fließendes Stück Honigwabe aussehen, was auch schön mit der wabenartigen Struktur des Reflektors korrespondierte – nur wollte es mir partout nicht gelingen, der Verzerrung zumindest ein wenig Schärfe abzuringen. Ich habe dann versucht, die Wabenstruktur im Innern des Reflektors mithilfe der Zwischenringe und der Raynox-DCR-250-Makrolinse zu vergrößern, aber auch hier hatten die Endergebnisse zu wenig Schärfe.
Irgendwann, es war schon ziemlich später Abend (wie immer), gab ich frustriert auf. Zum Glück fiel mir dann die flauschige Feder ein, die ich letzte Woche zufällig auf einer der unzähligen Stufen des Olympiastadions entdeckt und aus der Hand mit der GRIII fotografiert hatte. Die Größe (gut 6 cm) passte, den Winkel hatte ich bei der Aufnahme (unbewusst? Freud lässt grüßen, denn vor Ort hatte ich überhaupt nicht an das Dutch-Angle-Thema gedacht) auch schon passend schräg gewählt... Warum also nicht, auch wenn diese Feder nicht das Foto ist, das ich als Erstes vom (außerordentlich schönen) Fotowalk dort hochladen wollte. Ich habe das Bild dann in Topaz Sharpen AI nachgeschärft (Modus "Stabilize") und in HDR Efex ausgehend von der Voreinstellung "En Vogue: Cool Deep" bearbeitet. Was dann noch fehlte, war etwas mehr Licht bzw. Leuchten, denn die Feder hatte auf einer der Treppen auf der Schattenseite des Olympiastadions gelegen und das DNG war recht flau und trüb. Also habe ich in ON1 noch eine "Sunflare"-Textur drübergelegt und in LR die Weißtöne aufgehellt und als Abschluss noch die Voreinstellung "Weicher Nebel" (mit zusätzlichen Veränderungen meinerseits bei der Struktur, Luminanz und Sättigung) für ein weicheres, verträumtes Aussehen verwendet.
Manchmal kommt es eben anders, als man denkt, aber das muss ja nichts Schlechtes sein ;-) Ich wünsche Euch eine schöne Woche, liebe Flickr-Freunde, passt weiterhin gut auf Euch auf!

contribution to MM challenge for 14/10/19, theme: "wire"
strangely difficult to find a piece of electrical wire without buying a a whole reel from B&Q!
wasn't my first choice and seeing some of today's contributions it shows how narrow minded I was about this challenge, and what I could have done...
Just one note about this image - the background is part of the image and was created in camera, rather than in post prod.
Today is the 12th day of Valentine's month of February; I must include laughter in my February love group. Laughter keeps one younger, lightens up everyone's mood, and can change the direction of the general mood from a sad, gloomy one to a happy and joyous one. Laughter in itself is a kind of medicine, one that we cannot live without!

Laughing Song
William Blake
When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy,
And the dimpling stream runs laughing by;
When the air does laugh with our merry wit,
And the green hill laughs with the noise of it;
when the meadows laugh with lively green,
And the grasshopper laughs in the merry scene,
When Mary and Susan and Emily
With their sweet round mouths sing "Ha, ha he!"
When the painted birds laugh in the shade,
Where our table with cherries and nuts is spread:
Come live, and be merry, and join with me,
To sing the sweet chorus of "Ha, ha, he!"
A day without laughter is a day wasted.
Charlie Chaplin
The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.
E.E. Cummings
We need more kindness, more compassion, more joy, more laughter. I definitely want to contribute to that.

Second contribution to Smile on Saturday, first one was a silhouette and not life-like.
Think I might do more sp‘s again.
well there's been a few shots of the sunrise in Auckland already on Flickr today, here's my contribution - was a beaut morning, the ship was a very slow beast so managed to take out the tiny bit of blur from the exposure.
There was even a seal bobbing around, never seen one in the gulf before and bit to far out for my 10-22mm but so good to watch this seen unfold in total peace with this chap.
(not HDR), colours were quite strong this morning
FG @ 1.6sces f8, sky 1/10 @ f8, DRI,-currently replacing my crap filters even though I did use my 3stop GND on this (not quite enough though)!
My contribution to the theme Photo Sunday with the theme behind. A blue sky behind the ice crystal that is behind the balcony window and I behind the camera.

possible MM contribution for 2/4/20, theme "yellow"
I haven't been doing much recently so I'll start this by wishing anyone reading this well and hope you are all taking care of yourselves and those around you.
I even had to "make" a "lightbox" for this!!
contribution to macro mondays challenge for 8/7/19, theme: Danger.
And to depict this one of the most dangerous things on the planet from many points of view. This may well be on the borders of what is acceptable and it's questionable just how much of the image is driven by introspection.
Finally: "no drugs were harmed in the making of this image". Just one paracetamol capsule and a teaspoon of flour. The hardest part was finding money that still rolls up!
My contribution for this weeks Macro Mondays theme mesh. Found this beautiful leaf in decay and used some backlit and colored filter.
Our contribution for the new round of TLC The Garden: The Beatle Chair Comes in Rust (displayed) or in Metal and has a Texture Changer for the Leather parts (Red (displayed here), Army, Black and White). The chair has 7 LI and 18 single- and 9 couple animations.
