The foundation. Adding on to the one room house of seven where Lester and Emerson live in rural Guatemala.
Taken for the Macro Mondays theme of fill the frame. A gerbera flower - I used extension tubes on my macro lens to get really close in.
No matter where I have lived, I have always gravitated to the birds of prey ... the raptors. To me, there's something fascinating about their beaks, their wings, the look of concentration and determination, but mainly their talons. When a raptor flies over me, especially when they bank and show off their underside, or topside, of their body, it's so cool. Red-tailed hawks are the most variable of all of the buteos, depending on where they are found and also their color morphs. Of course, don't forget how their feather patterns change as they molt. It really makes a challenge for species specific ID.
I could raptor all day long and be happy ... we get all sorts of raptors visiting us throughout the winter and some visit during the summer.
This red-tailed hawk flew over me at a relatively close range (though this image is most likely cropped some for balance). The extended wingspan was amazing to view, with every feather serving a purpose. Love these raptors.
Happy Monday!

Today's photo is a macro (with extension tube) of a Bearded Iris flower [Iris x germanica - Iridaceae family]

Found this little fellow on a board in the shed. He never moved as I took the board outside, examined him, put the board down, went inside to get the camera (conveniently already set up with an extension tube), came back out, positioned the board and took five shots! Then I blinked and he flew away :0
Still experimenting with extension tubes, here I was looking for something different to photograph with some very tired looking tulips. A lot of the color seemed to have faded, which made me think more of a monochrome edit - including some generous use of sliders to fit into the Sliders Sunday Theme. HSS to those who participate as well!
Canon EF 4/70-200L (Non-IS)) with 3 stacked Kenko extension tubes. The good old EF Zoom turned out to be a cool Macro. The distance to the object was about 50cm.

One of Idaho's most obscure railroad operations is the Dry Valley Railroad. The short line connected to UP's Dry Valley Branch in Maybe Canyon, dropping down a 1.5% grade to Mountain Fuels.
Built in 1984 by Conda Partnerships, the route was initially a six-mile extension of UP's Dry Valley Branch from Maybe Canyon to Champ, with a three mile spur to reach Mountain Fuels phosphate loader. Doug is one of few photographers to catch the operation on film with a pair of leased Alaska Railroad FP7A locomotives.
ARR 1506 and 1508 have gathered the first cut of mine empties as they depart Maybe Canyon. The open top hoppers will load at the Mountain Fuels conveyor nine mies down the branch.
By far this is the best fantrip I've ever been on. This was supposed to be a shorter roundtrip from Erwin to St Paul with steamer #1 and just the 2 cars that it could pull unassisted. When the steamer went down with a mechanical issue, the ETRHS got together with railroad officials and replaced #1 with FP7 #200, added business car 100, and took the train all the way to Elkhorn City. I got to experience the whole north end of the railroad all in one day. The air conditioned business car was a god send on the hot humid day. We all shared time in the car and the cab of #200. There weren't many people getting off for photo stops so we were able to do a bunch of them. This was is at the SE Trammel. The stop was made way in the background by the crossing. I walked south toward Sandy Ridge tunnel. The train here is about to enter Sandy Ridge tunnel which is the top of the 34 mile grade from Elkhorn City. It was somewhere in this view that the final spike was driven in 1915 completing the Elkhorn Extension from Dante to Elkhorn City. Happy Fantrip Friday. June 21, 1975
La Campa Torres es una extensión de terreno que se encuentra en el cabo de Torres, penÃnsula que se recuesta sobre el mar Cantábrico, al norte de España. Domina el puerto de El Musel y se ubica al oeste de la ciudad de Gijón (Asturias)
Se trata de un enclave que desde tiempos antiguos fue habitado por diferentes tribus asà como por los romanos como atestiguan los restos y yacimientos arqueológicos
Tambien aqui se encuentra el faro de Torres o faro de Gijón y las bombonas de butano que son estos depositos esfericos que os muestro con este amanecer.
El edificio que se ve en primer plano es la entrada al yacimiento arqueológico.
Espero sea de vuestro agrado

During the Fall and Winter, I take most of my Mushroom images at a 900' elevation. Once March is here, they don't emerge there. My property is at 500' and they start emerging here, like the above image.
This was a 31-image stack using Helicon Focus. This Mushroom was too small for my 60mm lens so I used my 50mm with an 11mm extension tube so I could get closer and lower. A 40mm lens would have been ideal to push the background back more.

I took pretty much the same photo with my Rodenstock XR-Heligon 75mm F1.1 on a full frame sensor.

Last one in the series, again shot with a modified Helios 44-2 58mm f/2 Lens with M42 to Canon EF adapter + 12 mm Kenko extension tube.
Out of the shots of the forsylia flower I posted previously, this one is my favour. Which one is yours? Here is the little secret behind.
I have this Helios 44-2 vintage lens for over four years now. I bought it for its famous swirly bokeh; but I feel it hard to find the sweet spot. Apparently you need a pretty good distance in the background so the little light spots and details can register into that swirl shape.
Recently I learnt online that the front and the rear elements of Helios 44-2 could be reversed. Unfortunately my version does not have enough threads to reverse the front, so I decided to give it a try to reverse the rear element.
Wow, surprisingly after only a few shots, the crazy bokeh is unmatched and it also has remarkable color retention.
Now I am convinced that the inexpensive Helios vintage lens is a very fun lens to have and you can do many mods with it. From now on I definitely will use mine more often.
♥ Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments ♥

Every morning, I whip a lot of my favorite soap and wash my face. This is whipped safflower soap. I shot this photo in the bathroom.
