Upon arriving at the Bayou, I thought I would take a photograph or two before checking into campgrounds. This is a focus stack of two images. Caddo Lake, Texas, USA, October 2022

I had just finished a small bowl of fruit for my dinnertime dessert, when I noticed an interesting shadow and light pattern created by the glass bowl and spoon. Given that Shadow(s) is one of the open challenges for the Our Daily Challenge group, I left the bowl right where it was and went to get my camera and tripod. Above is the resulting image. I'm not sure how successful I was in emphasizing the shadow, but I like the shot in any case.

Intense rains this fall are producing a bumper crop of fungi of varied species at the Delaware shore. This one is still glistening from the rain, as are its mossy surroundings. 17 shots were taken with Helicon FB and processed with Helicon software.
The first of the Leafcutter Bees, that I'm raising, to emerge from it's cocoon. I think it's beautiful. Photographed in Maryland.

En esencia, el Valle de Salenques es un frondoso hayedo, un caos de rocas granÃticas, unas grandiosas otras no tanto, las aguas del rÃo escurriendose estruendósamente entre sus recovecos... y mucha tranquilidad.

For Looking Close... on Friday!'s #(touch of) gold
This is a gold sharpie pen. And not the flame from the Statue of Liberty at a funny angle, as some might think :-)))
The nib is about 0.5cm long, and this shot isn't significantly cropped (except to tidy up the composition). I've recently bought some close-up filters for my macro lens, as I'm really interested in trying to get even closer than macro. This was my first experience of using the filters, and for this one, I used the x4 filter. The main issues are going to be that they seem to massively reduce the amount of light getting into the lens, so the shutter speed is far too slow for the sharpness I'd like. Also, the dof is very narrow, so this was a focus stack of 4 images, which incidentally I was super pleased with.
As another aside, I tried rotating this image, mainly to see what it looked like vertical to be more like a flame. But it just didn't feel right in any other orientation, which I found interesting.
The image was based on the Macro Mondays' theme from last year of vibrant minimalism, which is a style I love but just never quite remember to use.
Raw walnut halves and pieces. There's always a bunch of crumbs when you get to the bottom. :-)

I have only seen one of these beautiful little red faced Jumpers. Hopefully I will find more one day in the future. Photographed in Maryland.
