Macro Mondays 12/02/18 theme In a Bottle
How to create lightning in a bottle in macro.First find a small glass bottle (2.5cm tall) and drill a small hole "DAME IT".
Carefully drill "$*£T"
Carefully,slowly and with very little pressure drill a small hole in the base of the bottle.Push a pin into the cork and wrap it with a small piece of cotton wool.Fill the bottom of the bottle with a conductive material (I used copper filings) and place on an earthed metal surface.Now attach a small piece of wire to the top of the pin and push the cork into the bottle.Now to create lightning.Attach the other end of the wire to a spark generator,don't worry I used a very safe piezo electric pain relief pen.Set the camera up for a long exposure,turn all light of and take the photo.The flash lit the scene and during the rest of the exposure I pressed the button on the pen to create the spark : )

Or pink dreams? Or huge cotton balls? Or just a look through the pink glasses? Actually it is simply the view in the sky – again from my garden – and that is not an effort, but very easy ;-)

Oder doch rosarote Träume? Oder riesengroße Wattebäusche? Oder nur ein Blick durch die rosarote Brille? Ganz eigentlich ist es schlicht der Blick in den Himmel – wieder mal aus meinem Garten – und das ist keine Anstrengung, sondern ganz leicht ;-)

#CrazyTuesday / #Clouds
Kuschelwolken. Ein Versprechen?

This crow seems to be a little undecided. Perhaps also skeptical whether the clouds are really as soft as their sight promises. Perhaps also skeptical whether the pink promise will dissolve in the air when touched – as soap bubbles usually do?

Noch ein wenig unentschlossen scheint diese Krähe zu sein. Vielleicht auch skeptisch, ob die Wolken wirklich so weich sind, wie ihr Anblick verspricht. Vielleicht auch skeptisch, ob sich das rosarote Versprechen bei Berührung in Luft auflöst – so wie Seifenblasen das üblicherweise tun?

Raining 2 hours before and again a few hours after I took this yesterday. Fickle mother nature. From my balcony.
The seed of the bulrush now looks like cottonwool, the grass is yellowing and the sky is full of clouds.
A 2.5cm ball of cotton wool on top of the icing of our Christmas cake, which we're saving for our New Year treaties.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
When I was a kid and didn't know what it looked like on top of the clouds, I imagined I could lay in the white fluffy softness and dream the day away. Even now when I am on a plane, I have the same thoughts. So, this is what I wanted to create. Figure used is a tiny Pierrot less than 2 inches tall. Clouds are cotton wool and sky made out of tissue paper.
Cotton-wool clouds, summer sky, rustle of leaves. Who still remembers? Who is looking forward to it?
A very bright and hazy early evening on the Foel Offrwm path above Llanfachreth near Dolgellau. A north westerly view over the woodland towards Rhinog Fach and Rhinog Fawr on the right with Y Garn dominating the left hand side.
Familie Hallimasch hat die Kleinen schön mit Watte für die kalte Nacht geschützt ..
Nein, ich weiss nicht, was das Weiße ist, sah nicht wie Schimmel aus, eher wie Watte, aber es war eine mir unbekannte natürliche Wucherung was die Pilze bedeckte. Vielleicht ein Parasit !?
_ Family Armillaria has nice protected the kids with cottonwool for the cold night ..
No, I do not know what the white is, did not looked like mouldiness, more like cottonwool, but it was a natural overgrowth what the mushrooms covered.
Perhaps a parasite !?

Portland Bill Lighthouse looking like it has been wrapped in cotton wool. #PortlandBillLighthouse #Portland2015 #Summertime
Felt very cottonwool headed today so thought maybe a walk along Hove seafront may help. Of course could not resist a photo of the Pier.
ST LOUIS ILLINOIS, USA
Travelling from Indianapolis to St Louis, I needed a break from driving, so I stopped near St Elmo in Illinois in the US.
I'm glad I did, because I came across a beautiful cottonwool look of descending clouds in rural fields.
The clouds looked so low and close, and I wished I could of just grabbed and squashed them.
In the setting sun it looked beautiful from the naked eye.
Thanks for viewing my photo.

In recent years it became a 'standard' to shoot waterfalls with long exposure and blur moving water to make it look like milk or cotton. It was interesting for a while, but became a tired cliche.
I prefer my water frozen - crystalline and textured. Took a blurred one just to prove a phone can do it without ND filters and even without special apps.

The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" for the 7th of June is "cotton buds", which I found to be a great challenge. Anyone who follows my photostream knows that I love and collect 1:12 size miniatures which I photograph in realistic scenes. The artifice of recreating in minute detail items in 1:12 scale always amazes me, and it’s amazing how the eye can be fooled. In order to produce something a little bit different with my cotton buds this week, I have decided to pose them with a couple of bathroom essentials from my 1:12 miniatures collection: namely some lemon bath salts, some aspirin tablets and a jar of cotton wool, all of which were made by Little Things Dollhouse Miniatures in Lancashire with great attention to detail of the labels. I hope you like my choice for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile.

I'm wrapping Barbalala up in cotton wool. Not long ago the bin bag (trash sack) that held all my toy props got accidentally thrown out for the rubbish (garbage). The only one left is Barbalala, as she wasn't in the bag.
We've asked a couple of friends who have grandchildren if they might have some other toys that I could have. A rather sad time. :(

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread lightly (.sic softly) because you tread on my dreams.
~ William Butler Yeats
