At Sebastian request, here's one of his jumps.
He loves jumping from any suitable surface and I have to recognize he's good, but my nerves suffer.
A Macro Mondays submission on the topic 'Flexible". Spider sik is among the most flexible of materials, containing proteins which can stretch to five times their normal size and return to their original shape.
If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water.

Water is the driving force of all nature.

Nothing is softer or more flexible than water, yet nothing can resist it.
Lao Tzu
The cure for anything is saltwater: sweat, tears, or the sea.
Isak Dinesen
Thousands have lived without love, not one without water.

when I was little I would buy string licorice and braid and I thought this might be fun for the theme. All I could find this week was regular licorice whips so you got a knot!
A closer look at the bottom side of the flexible terrain .
Essentially it's a lattice of large leaf elements, reinforced with some 1L bars with clips in the places where no anti-stud is present. The top is 1x2 plates.
The advantage of being a T-Rap is combining the #sip_flexibility of a raptor with the big scary face of a T-Rex.
I decided this week to combine both #SiPgoes52 and Raptor Pack Day (#tds_infinityraptor) with a photo of T-Rap taken last year in Helsinki in front of the Cathedral.
Paying on the plastic... and a nod to Mastercard's predecessor 'Access' who's advertising tag line was "your flexible friend'. My flexing mastercard shot is a stack of 14 images all at f2.8 to create the backdrop I was after.
Crazy Tuesday: Flexibles
Thoughts of amore turned to crushing disappointment as Milo realized that the curvaceous purple beauty was not a lady millipede, but rather, a taco holder.
Stretchy sticky toy by Incredible Novelties Canada, on silver glitter paper. Taco holder from the kitchen drawer. The holder is also somewhat flexible!
This little image is of a leaf section from a shiny multi coloured decorative flower, it's very flexible and if bent will spring back, or leaf back to it's former shape.
This section I've photographed is small around one inch long.
These shiny plastic flowers are coated with 24 K gold so are extremely lovely and fabulously colourful too, especially when the light shines upon them.

Little Black Cormorant demonstrates cervical flexibility!
Ariane 5 flight VA254 with the Eutelsat Quantum and Star One D2 satellites is now on the launch par of the ELA-3 (Ensemble de Lancement Ariane) Ariane 5 launch complex, at Europe's Space Port in Kourou, French Guyana on 29 July 2021.
Quantum, the ESA Partnership Project with Eutelsat, Airbus and Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd, is a pioneering mission preparing the way for the next generation of telecommunications satellites, which will be more flexible by design and so more adaptable to customer needs once in orbit.
Quantum is a shift from custom-designed satellite with one-off payloads to a more generic approach, resulting in unprecedented in-orbit reconfigurability in coverage, frequency and power, allowing complete mission rehaul, including orbital position.
ESA partnered with satellite operator Eutelsat and manufacturer Airbus to design this programme, in response to today's market requiring satellites to be able to respond to changes in geographical or performance demand, either during manufacturing or after launch. This will enable the operator to address emerging business opportunities — even those that appear after it has ordered a satellite.
Such ESA Partnership Projects maximise the benefits to industry thanks to an efficient, co-managed approach that is tailored to commercial best practice.

This was tricky to get. Luke didn't want to cooperate with me and after many...many attempts he FINALLY walked toward me stepping into the sunlight casting on the floor.
To make matters worse, I used my Samsung Galaxy S7 and shot RAW to have somewhat flexible dynamic range but phones are still pretty limited so a bit of his fur is blown out but I still like it!
