Captured this ring with an old Nikkor 50mm f/1.2 on the front of some $10 extension tubes I picked up at the central market. No major adjustments in post, the trippy effect comes straight from the lens.
The extension unit is identical to the Kodak Standard Flasholder , but with a connection cord of 20 foot instead of 15 inch . There is a standard bracket , and a "C" clamp bracket to install the unit on a tripod or on furniture , doors , etc . An exposure table is present , as is a 2-way flashguard to cover the reflector .
We're very excited about our new videos made by brilliant videographer Adrian Ardelean! This one features Danielle wearing our virgin Brazilian hair extensions - the ultimate in volume, versatility and value. www.afroditewigs.co.uk/virgin-hair-extensions
Whether you want to colour it or style it in your own way, this hair is sure to work for you! Our premium collection of double drawn extensions give you the finest Brazilian virgin hair that is carefully selected to be all the same length throughout - the thickness extends from root to tip giving you the volume you love!
Long lasting with a natural shine, they are easy to care for, giving you a beautifully smooth, tangle-free finish. Unlike single drawn wefts, it takes about 10 times the amount of natural unprocessed hair to produce double drawn against single drawn as all the shorter lengths are discarded to ensure that the extensions are thick and beautiful from the top to the very tip.
A stretch of line rarely used in the last couple of years is the Ogmore Vale Extension (OVE) linking Margam yard with Tondu (on the Bridgend to Maesteg branch) but on 24 August 2014 ‘The Taffy Tug 2’ operated by Pathfinder Tours used this link on the Baglan Bay to Maesteg section of their tour. Seen crossing a minor road on the OVE in a hamlet named Cwm Ffos is DBS Class 60 numbered 60040 ‘The Territorial Army Centenary.’ The metal crossing gates are a relatively recent addition as for a number of years the crossing was controlled by automatic lights, but local youths were prone to activate the lights as a result of trespassing; the gates are more secure and are padlocked when not in use.
Dolce enjoyed stretching his legs since our day trip from Peggy's Cove meant a lot of time in the car. This was our last stop before turning back and heading to the house.
Female farmers attend an extension session in Bangladesh. Their village of Baikunthapur, Chirirbandar, is typical of the places where CIMMYT is having an impact in improving the livelihoods of small farmers. In such rural areas, extension services are one of the few resources that farmers working for a better life have access to. By collaborating with national partners in Bangladesh to provide training sessions like these, CIMMYT is able to take the benefits of its research directly to farmers, facilitating access to and adoption of improved seed, technologies and practices that can ultimately offer farmers better livelihoods.

South extension of my in-laws' family house, seen from the entrance drive.
The house is at Spanish Point, Pembroke Parish, Bermuda.
On the L is part of the original house (c 1951) prior to later additions. This original part was built to one of several plans by the architect Wil Onions (1908-1959), local to Bermuda, which were offered to my in-laws when they bought their plot. Onions was a key influence in reviving Bermuda's vernacular cottage style.
The part of the house facing the camera is a room extension to the original house, and is built on stilts because of the steep slope of the hillside. It was cantilevered over the drive so that the room itself could be on the same floor as the rest of main living space of the house. Although the house has a garage, this area is always used as a car port and sometimes as a patio area. The main living room is in this extension. (The wide angle of my lens setting has 'stretched' the extension.) The view looks SE.
The roof is in traditional stepped stone style with hipped gables and a water catchment system. This can be seen as the bigger 'step' in the roof near the eave. This is the 'glide' and it directs rain water from the roof via pipes into a storage tank. Most Bermuda buildings have their own catchment system or share a local communal one.
Wikipedia gives a useful summary of Bermuda's distinctive traditional architecture, including information about Wil Onions' styles and influence.
PLANTS
1.
The conspicuous red catkin-like flowers, lower R, are growing on the shrub known as the chenille plant (Acalypha hispida Burm.f.) in Bermuda. Globally it has no known native area, and is known only as a garden plant thought to have originated somewhere in the Pacific (Oceania) region. More on this plant at: flic.kr/p/Eht8q3
2.
The tree bearing the pink flower-like fruits (upper centre) belong to the golden rain tree (Koelreuteria paniculata Laxm.). Other common names for this tree are: pride of India, varnish tree, shrimp tree, China tree. It is a native of China and Korea. The fruits proper are berries inside these pink flower-like 'shells' that turn to this colour before fading. They appear darker than they really are here because they are casting their own shade.

My Dad is a carpenter. When I was a kid I went to work with him in the summers. This is how he taught me to plug in extension cords so they won't come unplugged no matter how hard you pull.
I took the photos to illustrate an Instructable at www.instructables.com.
Well I didn't actually count these little buds... but buds a plenty for sure! lol!
Hope your week has gotten off to a great start!

Playing about with extension tubes to take macro photos on my 85mm f1.2 lens! They did a pretty good job for £20!

ENGLISH
The Atlas moth (Attacus atlas) is a large saturniid moth found in the tropical and subtropical forests of Southeast Asia, and common across the Malay archipelago. In India, Atlas moths are cultivated for their silk in a non-commercial capacity; unlike that produced by the related Silkworm moth (Bombyx mori), Atlas moth silk is secreted as broken strands. This brown, wool-like silk is thought to have greater durability and is known as fagara. Atlas moth cocoons have been employed as purses in Taiwan.
Atlas moths are considered the largest moths in the world in terms of total wing surface area [upwards of c. 400 cm2 (62 sq in)]. Their wingspans are also amongst the largest, from 25–30 cm (10–12 in). Females are appreciably larger and heavier.

CASTELLANO
La mariposa atlas (Attacus atlas) es una especie de lepidóptero ditrisio de la familia Saturniidae. Es el representante de mayor tamaño de la familia y la mariposa más grande del mundo tomando en cuenta el área total de sus alas (más de 400cm2). La envergadura de sus alas también está dentro de las más grandes, de 25 a 30 cm. Los especímenes femeninos son más grandes y más fuertes. El lepidóptero de mayor envergadura es el diablo blanco (Thysania agrippina). Su nombre científico deriva del nombre del titán Atlas de la mitología griega. En Hong Kong, en idioma cantonés, su nombre común se traduce como "mariposa cabeza de serpiente", en referencia a la extensión apical de las alas, que tiene un parecido con tal cabeza de ofidio.
Habita en los bosques tropicales del sudeste de Asia, el sur de China, pasando por el archipiélago malayo hasta Indonesia. En India, las mariposas atlas son cultivadas por la seda en proporciones no comerciales. A diferencia de la seda producida por el gusano de seda (Bombyx mori), la seda de la oruga de la mariposa atlas es secretada en hilos no continuos. Esta seda (llamada "fagara") de color café y parecida a la lana es apreciada por su gran durabilidad. En Taiwán, las crisálidas de la mariposa atlas se emplean para hacer carteras.

La reflexión: santimbphotos.blogspot.com
I put a film through my old Chinon CM3 back in the summer. I always liked using extension tubes with a 35mm SLR and I was just messing about for the retro experience here. I think I ordered Kodak T-Max 400 from my usual supplier of photographic materials, but they sent this ...the same manufacturer's Tri-X. There was no explanation, so I don't know whether they'd substituted for an item out of stock, or if it was a simple mistake. But I'm not fussy: all the mainstream films are good. The only black & white films at which I'd turn up my nose are Foma Retropan 320 "Soft" (too soft) and Fomapan 200 "Creative" (full of black specks). I've never found anything wrong with Foma's other films mind you. Grain can be nasty, but when it's just right it is a thing of beauty and I like the graininess here. My missus tells me there are male and female bell peppers, identifiable by the number of "lobes". I don't know which this is ...or was: it underwent the horrors of digestion towards the end of July.
