Happy Macro Monday flickerites!
I hope you like this week's submission of a small, crystal airplane ornament that my wife has had for years. I loved last week's reflection theme and had pondered using this airplane as the subject last week but went with the glass pyramid instead. I'm so glad I did as that enabled me to use the airplane for this week's "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" theme.
The image started out as focus stack of 14 images of the airplane on a standard mirror which I combined in the brilliant Helicon Focus software (if you're a regular Macro Monday fan and you haven't tried this software then I can't encourage you enought to download the 30 day free trial and have a go - it's amazing!). The resulting image underwent some very basic tweaks in Lightroom (cropping, clarity, vibrance, black and white levels) before moving into Photoshop for some extensive dust spot removals (the mirror and airplane weren't nearly as clean and dust-free as I'd thought they were before pointing a lens at them!). I also added a levels layer in Photoshop. Back in Lightroom I boosted the luminence of the blue and aqua channels whilst reducing the saturation of the yellow channel. Finally, I took the image back into Photoshop and reduced the exposure of the reflection by 2 stops as it was 'fighting' with the primary image too much.
I hope you like the result and thank you to everyone who views, faves and comments on this image.
Every things in nature, a leaf, a drop, a crystal, a moment of time is related to the whole, and partakes of the perfection of the whole.

The Crystal Palace Subway, a Grade II listed Victorian structure, was built in 1865 to provide access for first-class passengers from the High Level Station to the Crystal Palace Exhibition. It was designed by Charles Barry Jr. and features red and cream brick vaults and an elaborate stone floor.
After the Crystal Palace was destroyed by fire in 1936, the subway fell into disuse and was partially submerged. During World War II, it served as an air raid shelter and sustained damage.
The subway has undergone a major restoration project, and is now open to the public for guided tours and events. It is considered one of the last remaining parts of the original Crystal Palace complex and a key architectural and historical feature of the area.
Macro Mondays: Pair
These studs are very small -- 0.5 cm in diameter each. They are clear, but when the facets catch the light the right way, they burst into colour.

Crystal Lake is easy to see, sets right on the MDH near Ironton. The problem comes finding it still.
All these Super Moon shots are taking me back to this full moon in September of 2015. Rightfully so, Crystal Mill is one of Colorado’s most photographed sites and you’ve probably seen it in your feeds before. (Special thanks to the headlights of the approaching vehicle for perfectly light painting the powerhouse.)

Crystal figurein of a snail. The snail part is etched glass, the shell is crystal. For Macro Mondays theme "Crystal".
For today’s Macro Monday challenge I started with pictures of the surface of a crystal teardrop prism from an old chandelier. I realized the better idea was to hold the lens directly against the prism and focus on the refracted patterns inside the crystal. I hope the moderators don’t think these are too far outside the theme…
handy thing, that electronic shutter...let the sun shine in ;)

Seemed like a good time to play with my crystal ball. I need to do this more and try to get more creative with it!
