.... Werner, Hilde und Rafi, dass Ihr mir mit Rat und Tat zur Seite gestanden habt um diese schöne Ausstellung möglich zu machen. Was wäre ich ohne Euch ....
Dass Du, liebe Rafi, völlig unerwartet auf meiner Vernissage aufgetaucht bist, hat mich unendlich gerührt. Du hast mir damit eine große Freude gemacht !
Ebenfalls ehr gefreut habe ich mich auch über die Besuche meiner Flickr-Kontakte, die den Weg zu meiner Ausstellung gefunden haben und die ich dadurch persönlich kennenlernen durfte. Danke also an Ralf, Patrik, André und die beiden, die aus Dortmund und ... war's Oldenburg? .... angereist kamen und hier nochmal winken wollten, damit ich sie zuordnen kann ... :-)))) ....
Ich hoffe, ich habe jetzt keinen vergessen ... bei all den Besuchern, die ich hatte .... ;-)) ...
...as in I'm pretty sure being upside down is good for their brain development. Don't quote me on that though. Unbelievably this is my fifth explore in 5 days!!!!!

The story of this photo:
This is my latest macro shot. Over the last few weeks, I have been spending my time doing a lot of stuff that did not have too much to do with taking or editing photos. It did have to do with photography, but just not with the creative part of it. Anyway, yesterday, I got fed up with this stuff and I started messing around with my macro gear. The sun just went down and I found this tiny foilage with those delicate little hairs. I figured that this would look great against the sun. So, I got out my little syringe, applied a few droplets and took a whole bunch of shots with the sun in different spots relative to the foilage.
Initailly, I went with an aperture of f/20 to f/25 to get all of the leaves in focus. But that brought parts of the background too much into focus too. So, I went with f/8 which blurred the background entirely, and I took different shots with different foci. Then I used focus stacking in Photoshop to blend those images together. Et Voilà, subject in focus, background blurred.
And here is the lesson for you: Always know what you can do to an image in post-processing while you are shooting. This may help you solve problems and lets you create images that may be very difficult to create otherwise.
How it was shot:
> Taken with a tripod
> Three exposures - used focus stacking to bring the whole subject into focus
> Camera: Nikon D7000
> Lens: Nikon AF-S Micro-Nikkor 105mm 1:2,8G VR
How it was post-processed:
> Post-processing was done in Photoshop
> Topaz DeNoise
> Topaz Infocus for sharpening
> Topaz Details for bringing out the details in the petals and some basic color correction
> Saturation adjustent layer (master)
> Vibrance layer (vibrance)

HI!
My name is Jake. I want to thank all my Flickr friends who have wished me so well and awaited my arrival with such encouraging words, thoughts and prayers. Since I am a little bundle of joy [so I'm told] my daddy may be busy for a little while and unable to post as many pictures here as he usually does! That's OK. He will be changing diapers, helping me eat and introducing me to our new and wonderful world, one bird, bug, book and beautiful day at a time...
Manhattan is the most densely populated and geographically smallest of the five boroughs of New York City. Coextensive with New York County, Manhattan is the smallest county by geographical area in the U.S. state of New York. Located almost entirely on Manhattan Island near the southern tip of the state, Manhattan constitutes the center of the Northeast megalopolis and the urban core of the New York metropolitan area. Manhattan serves as New York City's economic and administrative center and has been described as the cultural, financial, media, and entertainment capital of the world.
Present-day Manhattan was originally part of Lenape territory. European settlement began with the establishment of a trading post by Dutch colonists in 1624 on southern Manhattan Island; the post was named New Amsterdam in 1626. The territory and its surroundings came under English control in 1664 and were renamed New York after King Charles II of England granted the lands to his brother, the Duke of York. New York, based in present-day Lower Manhattan, served as the capital of the United States from 1785 until 1790. The Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor greeted millions of arriving immigrants in the late 19th century and is a world symbol of the United States and its ideals. Manhattan became a borough during the consolidation of New York City in 1898, and houses New York City Hall, the seat of the city's government. The Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village, part of the Stonewall National Monument, is considered the birthplace of the modern gay rights movement, cementing Manhattan's central role in LGBT culture. It was also the site of the World Trade Center, which was destroyed during the September 11 terrorist attacks.
Situated on one of the world's largest natural harbors, the borough is bounded by the Hudson, East, and Harlem rivers and includes several small adjacent islands, including Roosevelt, U Thant, and Randalls and Wards Islands. It also includes the small neighborhood of Marble Hill now on the U.S. mainland. Manhattan Island is divided into three informally bounded components, each cutting across the borough's long axis: Lower Manhattan, Midtown, and Upper Manhattan. Manhattan is one of the most densely populated locations in the world, with a 2020 census population of 1,694,250 living in a land area of 22.66 square miles, or 72,918 residents per square mile, and coextensive with New York County, its residential property has the highest sale price per square foot in the United States.
Manhattan is home to the world's two largest stock exchanges by total market capitalization, the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq. Many multinational media conglomerates are based in Manhattan, as are numerous colleges and universities, such as Columbia University and New York University. The headquarters of the United Nations is located in the Turtle Bay neighborhood of Midtown Manhattan. Manhattan hosts three of the world's top 10 most-visited tourist attractions: Times Square, Central Park, and Grand Central Terminal. Penn Station is the busiest transportation hub in the Western Hemisphere. Chinatown incorporates the highest concentration of Chinese people in the Western Hemisphere. Fifth Avenue is the most expensive shopping street in the world.The borough hosts many prominent bridges and tunnels, and skyscrapers including the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and One World Trade Center. It is also home to the National Basketball Association's New York Knicks and the National Hockey League's New York Rangers.
A fine place to walk, a terrible place to trip...

One of the lovely little houses that I stayed in during my most recent exploration of Japan. My goal on that trip was to head out of the big cities and really get to know the normal day to day life of the wider country and it was an awesome experience.

لا تقل من أين أبدا؟… طاعة الله البداية
لا تقل اين طريقي؟ … شرع الله الهداية
لا تقل أين نعيمي؟… جنة الله كفاية
لا تقل غداً سأبدا؟… ربما تأتي النهاية
Don’t say: “From where do I start?” .. Obedience to Allah is the first
Don’t say: ” How can I know my way?” .. The law of Allah is the guidance
Don’t say: “Where is my bliss?” .. Paradise is enough
Don’t say: “I will start tomorrow” .. maybe the end is coming
The summer exhibition 2021 starts on May 22, with nine artists, including Dirk de Keyzer (bronze), Marc Deeleman (corten steel), Bien Velds (mixed media), Hans Janssen (glass) and Jikke van de Waal (ceramic)
