Grape Hyacinth (Muscari) at Hong Kong Flower Show 2012
I find the blue and green colors complement each other very well and are quite pleasant to the eyes :-)
One of the best experiences of my long weekend at KOS was the American Pipits in Simpson County. A group of around 6 foraged in a small mudflat, and some were in breeding plumage (unlike this one) with their orange backs and gray stomachs. They were singing too, which was a new experience for me.

Launch of Jupiter-C/Explorer 1 at Cape Canaveral, Florida on January 31, 1958. After the Russian Sputnik was launched in October 1957, the launching of an American satellite assumed much greater importance. When the Vanguard rocket exploded on the pad in December 1957, the ability to orbit a satellite became a matter of national prestige. The ABMA (Army Ballistic Missile Agency) at Redstone Arsenal, Huntsville, Alabama, in cooperation with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, launched a Jupiter rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida. The rocket consisted of a modified version of the Redstone rocket's first stage and two upper stages of clustered Baby Sergeant rockets developed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

When you're looking at life,
In a strange new room,
Maybe drowning soon,
Is this the start of it all?
Turn on your TV,
Turn down your pulse,
Turn away from it all,
It's all getting too much.
When you're looking at life,
Deciphering scars,
Just who fooled who,
Sit still in their cars,
The lights look bright,
When you reach outside,
Time for one last ride,
Before the end of it all.

I deleted the previous one because it's not really good but I made it as my buddy icon.

你 躺在柔软的床上 仰望夜空
每次发现 都发现是一场梦境
你的余温留在此地 飘着柔香
我的手指从你发间划过
安静的看着你 感受着你留在我嘴边的甜蜜
那一丝温柔只有你体验的到...

A dramatic pose by quite a few cosplayers at the GA Aquarium. I got smart this time and brought my tripod and remote trigger do that I could take good (or better!) shots in the ambient light - without a flash - and no blurriness. Go me!!!
Tech stuff: used Topaz Adjust's "Dark - Ghostly" filter on a copied layer of the image then very slowly and carefully erased the filter (29% opacity and flow) from that layer with a "water brush" (PS brush that simulated water such as waves) until I got the effect I wanted with a bit of a watery vibe to the photo.
Comments? Critiques? You want to have my babies? C'mon, give me something to work with here, people! ;->
EDIT: This pic made it on to Flickr's Explore page for 09.11.2013!!!! KEEN!!! Thanks for the kudos, Flickr! "Hi!" if you're visiting my photos because of this. :-D
Active Assignment Weekly: Expore-ability
Your assignment this week is to take a photograph that captures at least 3 of these criteria:
1) Very captivating thumbnail (without having to see all the details of the picture at a larger size)
2) Eye candy (high desirability and attraction – caters to one’s emotions and senses)
3) Amazing light
4) Color harmonization and contrast
5) Novelty subject (something unusual, cute, extraordinary, artistic, humorous, etc.)
Restriction: Limited Post Processing
WIT: No idea how to get into Explore, but I tried to meet 3 of the 5. To me, this photo has good light (not amazing), looks fairly okay in the thumbnail, may cater to the senses with seemingly harmonized color. So, in the end, I've posted a somewhat maybe explore-able photo, and I'm sure of that.
