Macro photo of a bunch of colourful scrunchies. This is my contribution to Macro Mondays theme FLEXIBLE.
Assam clearly wanted to rest on the pillows in the kitchen but Nobuo got there first, so Assam contented herself with a well-placed sunbeam, in July of 2016.
Had a studio shoot with my lovely modern dancer, Naomi.
Great to work with and very flexible and gracefully .

My son asked me to build a white Audi R8. Both of us like the Speed Champions sets, therefore I choosen this scale. If you like it, please support on LEGO IDEAS:
ideas.lego.com/projects/ead4242e-8bae-440d-930d-0c840d86ce5f
It is a studless build from standard lego elements and modified City wheels are used instead of Speed Champions ones to keep the height to length ratio more realistic similarly to my earlier ideas.
The front of this car is iconic and it was a real challenge to recreate it in this small size. I made lots of versions and I think the actual one with a tricky solution is the best.
I tried more solutions to the black side blades too, the actual one was inspired by "LEGO Audi R8 instructions (MOC #96)" by "Jerry Builds Bricks" on Youtube, however I modifed it a bit as I wanted tilted blades similarly to the real ones.
Only one sticker is used which is the Audi logo on the front as I'm generally not a fan of the parts with stickers, because of the lack of flexibility in using them with other builds.
The set includes the minifigure shown on the main picture. It comes form the set 75873 but with red helmet.
I have added a rear wing to make the car more dynamic. It differs from the custom Audi wings, but I think it fits to the style of the car and to the side mirrors.
(The background was modified and the stickers was added in a picture editor software.)

Personal work with model Caroline Anne - yogi and gymnast. Shot upstairs at the Peacock Gym, East London.
Setup: Key light is Profoto D1 through a beauty dish, with a grid, to cmaera left. The backlight is another D1 through a 60cm square softbox (a zoom reflector in a couple of shots), mounted at the very back of the room, and aimed down at the floor. The clip lights are a B1 each side of Caroline, one with a zoom reflector (back left) and the other with a strip softbox (back right).
Photoshop: Bit of cleanup to remove things from the walls/background etc, played with lookup tables, and hue/sat colorise adjustment layers, plus a bit of desaturation. Burned around the edges to focus attention on Caroline. Some work on skin with curves to add a bit of sculpting.
Not very good setup shot here.

COVID cancellations
It’s an uncertain world. Whenever I commit to plans, there’s a part of me that expects it to be canceled due to COVID.
The past two years have made me even more comfortable with flexible plans. I’ve also grown to appreciate the slower pace. Sometimes it takes a pandemic to appreciate a walk in the winter sunshine and the simple joy of watching a stick wash through a flooded culvert.

Who were the Druids? Popular folklore tells us they were ancient Celtic wise men. They wore long robes and had long, flowing beards. Merlin, the famous magician of King Arthur's court, was reputedly a Druid. They are credited with having built Stonehenge and other megalithic monuments throughout Great Britain and Europe.
Other sources tell us Druids were men and women who were really into trees. Their ceremonies were conducted in the open air, often in oak groves. The word Druid is apparently derived from the ancient Celtic words for oak and truth--dru and druidh. Other trees were also very important to them, including yew, hazel, walnut, willow, rowan, ash and birch. Tree symbolism was used in their religious and philosophical teachings, and in their calendar and system of writing, called Ogham.
Druids also believed that trees are like a humans. They deliver a babies, they grow, sometimes they get an illness, they fight, and they die...

Taken for Crazy Tuesday "FLEXIBLES"
An old photograph *hand colourised (if you want to use it, at least credit me and link to this description please!) by me, of Liverpool Corporation Passenger Transport (LCPT) tram No. 222 showing '22 - Walkerley' destination blinds.
The original BnW photo is here:-
Thanks to 'O Mac' for the comment that this might be the bridge by Fazakerley railway station. A 1927 map shows the tramway going over this bridge.
Modern day google maps street view.
1927 map view.
and a picture of that part of the map.
The photo reverse is stamped with the photographer (and/or negative owner) name of H. B. Priestley, and dated 22 Aug 1949.
No. 222 was built as an enclosed streamlined ' Baby Grand' car by LCPT at its Edge Lane Works, seating 30/40 and running on a 4 wheel EMB flexible axle truck. It first went into service Mar 1938 and was withdrawn from service Sep 1956 after which it was scrapped, the parts of the Liverpool tramways system that had not already been withdrawn or transferred to bus operation closing in Sep 1957.
* My colourised images are deliberately more sketch or watercolour like than colour transparency or print like. They are only an impression of that subject and period, rather than an accurate representation of how the image/subject actually looked when the photo was taken.
If there are any errors in the above description please let me know. Thanks.

I photographed this bird yesterday at my sister's Home For Wayward Hummingbirds. Her good work is funded under a grant from the You Can Eat More Sugar Than That Foundation.
Lighting stuff. I used a six strobe setup to photograph this tiny terror. I learned the lighting from a book by Linda Robbins called The Hummingbird Guide. Her method is to use a minimum 0f 5 to 6 strobes, a supplied background (which you have to provide), and photograph the birds in the shade so that you don't have to overpower the sunlight. When you use multiple strobes on a subject in the shade you can use lower power settings for each flash which results in shorter flash durations which means it freezes the wing blur. I used 5 Yongnuo strobes and another 3rd party manual flash for a total of 6 strobes. One strobe was pointed at the background, one was underneath the feeder, and the other 4 strobes surrounded the feeder. The strobes were all at about 1/16th power, in manual mode, and were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N., and you can see the EXIF info on the side. This is the first time I've ever photographed one of these birds without the wing blur. Down below in the first comment, you can see a picture of the setup that I used.
I've taken quite a few pictures of hummers over the years and put them an album creatively called Hummingbirds.
