In chaos theory, the butterfly effect is the sensitive dependence on initial conditions, where a small change at one place in a nonlinear system can result in large differences to a later state. The name of the effect, coined by Edward Lorenz, is derived from the theoretical example of a hurricane's formation being contingent on whether or not a distant butterfly had flapped its wings several weeks before.
Although the butterfly effect may appear to be an esoteric and unlikely behavior, it is exhibited by very simple systems: for example, a ball placed at the crest of a hill may roll into any of several valleys fully depending on slight differences in initial position.
The butterfly effect is a common trope in fiction when presenting scenarios involving time travel and with hypotheses where one storyline diverges at the moment of a seemingly minor event resulting in two significantly different outcomes. . . Wikipedia
Expérience photo: j'ai essayé de visser mon Tamron 70-300 mm sur mes bagues macro pour voir ce qui ça donne, toujours sans autofocus. Le résultat n'est pas mal! (Toujours dans le Queyras)
Photo experiment: I have tried to put my objective Tamron 70-300 mm on my macro tube just to see what happens, always without autofocus. The final result is not so bad! (Always in Hautes Alpes, South of France)

I like this stump. It shows the violence that was the explosive eruption of Mount St Helens May 18, 1980. This photo shows the crater and the blast zone from the eruption. The diameter of this stump is about 2-3 feet. This gives one an idea of the force that literally broke this tree off so close to the ground.
Royal Air Force Hawker Siddeley Dominie T.1 XS728/E from No.6 Flying Training School when based at RAF Finningley and seen on one of Greenham Common's huge concrete pans while attending the first IAT held there in July of 1973
Dominies were the military version of the DH125/HS125 Executive Jet and were used as Hi-speed Navigation Trainers but with the demise of both the Nimrod and introduction of the 2-crew Voyagers, their role became redundant and the fleet were retired.
Now with the advent of the Poseidon P-8 Maritime Patrol Aircraft on order - the need to train crews again has led to the acquisition of several Embraer Phenom Jets
As to this location, at the height of the 'Cold War' Greenham Common was a former US Air Force base hosting B-47 Stratojet bombers. Now closed, the base is slowly being returned to 'Common' ground for the enjoyment of the local population. Back then Finningley was a V-Bomber base, hosting Vulcans but with the ending of that era, it's no longer a RAF base and is now known as Doncaster's 'Robin Hood' Airport

This little waterfall along the SF coastline had been on my list for some time. After staring at cloudless skies for the past week, I was pleasantly pleased to see the return of clouds to the Bay Area. Initially, I was hesitant to make the trip out to shoot but ultimately decided that it would be sinful to miss another potentially glorious sunset.
When I arrived on location, the clouds were perfect: thin, high wispy clouds blanketed the sky. Further south was nothing but clear, empty skies. The conditions appeared to be the jackpot for what I wanted to shoot with high tide and high surf. At game time, the sky exploded into oranges and pinks as the waterfall flowed with force.
For the entire shoot, I somehow managed to stay relatively dry. Sure there was the splash here and there but waterproof pants and Gore-tex shoes shielded me from the larger waves. However, just as I completed the shoot and was preparing to head to higher ground, a large wave caught me napping. Oh well, it was all worth it.

A true labor of love. This took some time and a lot of futzing with multiple effects layering after finding all of the online tutorials for "Photoshop chalk effect" to be severely lacking, at least for what I was trying to achieve.
This is also my second complete attempt at the entire composite image, having made a number of mistakes during my setup and execution on the first one, resulting in only a rough approximation of what I was trying to do, which was exactly this.
The image on the wall is taken from our 10-year anniversary photo, made just last August in front of the Eiffel Tower, which I was hoping to embed in this title block, but I don't know how to do that!
(I'll upload that as a separate image so it's there as a reference point)
I believe this is the best work I've done in terms of Photoshop editing, employing a variety of different techniques to bring it all together.
I guess all this "sheltering" time has been good for something!
Here's the photo I took the "chalk" image from: flic.kr/p/2iJ1nLX
*Schiller Effect Labradorite*
Macro view of the surface of a large piece of labradorite showing four colors from the polished and smooth surface. This specimen is posted for #stonesaturday The piece is about 6" long and weighs about 1/2 pound. This was purchased from the Madagascar Trading Company in Tucson, directly at their wholesale office.

Interesting how Local lake effect snow can be. Sometimes it can affect us some 20 miles inland and sometimes it will only affect a couple miles from the shore. Well today lake effect snow only affected the immediate shore lines of Lake Michigan. As much as 18 inches of snow fell in some locations; while just a few miles inland just a trace of snow.
Here is what to expect as glaciers melt and ice caps disappear!
This photo was taken by a Yashica FR1 SLR 35mm film camera and ML 28mm 1:2.8 lens using Kodak 135 Portra 160 film, the negative scanned by an HP Scanjet G4050 and digitally rendered with Photoshop.
a flickr friend wondered ... if one of these towers somehow toppled over, and started a domino effect down the hill ... would the sound reach across the central valley ... from the Altamont hills all the way to Sonora?
then, another flickr friend offered the use of a station wagon with a trailer hitch, and a long rope .... just to help things get started.
and then, the topic of dark and stormy nights combined with a flickrwalk and photo event was brought up ..... just to record the unique event for posterity ... strange how our flickr minds work ...
these un-named flickr friends will remain anonymous ... just to protect the guilty.
Rounding out my tour of Mass Effect capital ships is the SR1 (again). This build is right around 5 feet which is just over 1.5 for the metrically inclined. Construction is mostly studless and was built from primary reference.
Build time was around 160 hours in about four weeks. Most of that was dealing with shaping issues on the fuselage and getting things to attach at the proper angles. As much as I love the ship design from Mass Effect, they really aren't Lego-friendly.

On Tuesday I go to the outing of Religion, we went by the missionaries, we sang in the language of Congo, and we discussed about so many things. Then we entered into a museum of stuffed animals, bones, and so many fascinating and intriguing things, I was ecstatic. I took about ten photos, but I haven't my sweet camera, so I 've shot with a camera a bit 'poor...
52 weeks of 2017, week 40 Collodian effect.
I fiddled with several effects and then applied GIMP grainy filter, info in comments.
This week let’s have some retro fun! The theme for the week is the “Collodian Effect”, a retro look back in the day of wet plate photography. Well, in the day, it wasn’t retro, it was the face of photography. Today we can get picture perfect images and “develop” them with software. We can tweak them to have whatever look we want. Looking back at the photographers of yesteryear (and the poor perfectly still models), we can appreciate how lucky we are. Using the magic of software and your personal creativity, produce an image that looks as if it was taken and developed back in the day of wet plate processing.
