Maintenant que le support avec les tubes a été utilisés pour remplir d'eau les ballons directement depuis un robinet, il ne reste que les tubes plastiques et c'est l'idéal pour des prises de photos en macro.
This is my Catwoman costume: Anne Hathaway/Dark Knight Rises edition. The costume includes a sleek black unitard, my favorite knee high boots, gloves, a make shift utility belt (a regular belt with two cell phone pouches attached), and official mask and goggles/ears. Amanda provided the whip for a little extra fun.

Common Snipe / gallinago gallinago. 21/08/19.
One of c9 Common Snipe that eventually flew in for a prolonged feeding fest mid-afternoon.
Once they got going, they probed their beaks into the mud at a rapid rate, reminiscent of a sewing machine's needle action. Snipe are able to detect food hidden deep in the mud using sensitive nerves inside the tips of their flexible beaks.
This bird was captured taking a brief rest to check the surrounding area. The position of it's beautifully large, dark eyes gives it excellent periphery vision.
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
Macro Monday's and the theme of "Flexible".
I am hoping my angle of thought here comes across as valid for this week and if not then that's fine.
Whenever a pine cone is exposed to water the scales contract and close trapping the water. When the water is absorbed the scales open out again. This is what I would call flexibility in nature.
Again this year, the Photography Show, which is normally held at the National Exhibition Centre at this time, is being converted into an online event. Here is a photo from the annual pilgrimage to the NEC two years ago. This is a degree of flexibility to be envied!

This was a potential shot for Macro Mondays .i.e. Until I started wondering about whether 'knicker elastic' as it's known to me, would qualify as 'flexible' in this context . Anyhow, not one to waste a shot, I give you an old trick of the trade, passed down to me by a church organist and which I found useful myself in my piano - playing days. It's knicker elastic used to wrap around a hymn book to hold the pages open. I kid you not.

Watch out streets, here I come :) Now that kids are back to school, I have some free time during the day... Working at home, my work schedule is very flexible. I've decided it's time to explore the streets a little bit and learn to look at things and people a little differently, apart from my backyard and around the neighborhood's gardens. Yesterday, I took the metro without any intentions as to where I'd go... I just wanted to go to the metro and took some photos.... So, don't be surprised if you will find more of these in the near future :) Have a great weekend everyone! Thank you as always.
Pulicat is located on the Coromandel Coast, about 60Km north of Chennai. As a prominent Dutch settlement in the seventeenth century, this small town boats of a vibrant and diverse cultural tradition. However, the history of this region is not limited to the Dutch colonialism alone; the Arabs, the Portuguese and the British established their stronghold in Pulicat at different times.
Apart from the historical and cultural importance, this tiny seashore town has an amazing scenic beauty. Pulicat offers an invigorating and thrilling experience of expedition. Among travelers, Pulicat is best known for two things: Pulicat Lake and Pulicat Bird Sanctuary. The lake in Pulicat is regarded as the second largest brackish water body in India and attracts thousands of tourists every year.
Want to make your ground flexible and have some subtle angles in your terrain? With this technique, inspired by Ralf Langer, you can :)
It's really quite flexible and sturdy enough to be bent without anything falling out. Convex bending is pretty much unlimited, but at a certain angle the gaps between studs will be so big it just doesn't look good anymore. Concave bending is much more limited as it presses the bricks closer together, and with too much force things will start to pop. Still, there is some room for concave bending, and it's possible to accomplish more, if some plates are removed and replaced with other odd sized parts, like plate with door rail or such.
Compared to using nets for bent surfaces, this technique is stiffer and less flimsy. This generally means it's sturdier, but it also doesn't follow an underlying topology as closely as a net construct would.
This can also quite easily be fixed into a certain shape, so that it holds the desired shape without support from below.
More testing to follow... and again, this is based on the idea that Ralf Langer presented, to use flexible leaf elements to achieve shapeable terrain :)

This is my 17th year covering this fun festival filled with color and pageantry and beautiful people. Each year some of the regulars return and sometimes fresh new faces appear to join the eclectic Renaissance Family. Some are vendors or employees, and some customers dress up to fit in with the renaissance festival fun and its 16th century way of life. One big happy family of a few thousand escaping the dull drums of their daily life for a few hours. This year's crop of new faces was lovely. Hope you enjoy the images. I try to capture their joy. Always fun, festive, very colorful and exciting!
Thank you very much for looking. Have a great day! Hazaaa!!
