Went for my first walk of spring in our woods today.
One of my main reasons for my first walk of spring is to see how the Fragile Ferns are doing. They're a little slower coming up this year, probably because late winter got pretty chilly.
Final image is a layered composition, the building is Fremantle power station (derelict) with sepia toned layering, the overlayer is a shot of a cracked lake bed. The opacity of each main layer was adjusted to maintain the texture detail and then merged.
Delicate mushroom appearing in our back yard every morning.
Bradenton, Florida.
Nikon Coolpix P900. (macro)
This tiny snail was only 4 or 5 mm in diameter.
The image is stacked with "CombineZ" at f/5.6 from 3 shots (each with different focus, to get sufficient DOF while the background stays soft [clear?]) with my Sigma 150 mm macro lens.
I know you won't come back.... We just were not meant to be. But my heart will take life long time to accept this unbearable truth.
Submission for WK2 of the TP52 theme challenge: Fragile. I decided not to go for the obvious, but to shoot something used to treat fragile conditions (in this case, my incredibly dry skin).
Our club had it's weekly contest on a topic of fragile. I layered a cracked hard boiled egg surface with a crystal chess set..all done by natural light coming through windows and combined with Corel and Exposure 2.
'Ranger stations' are set up at several exhibits all over Singapore Zoo and Night Safari where schoolchildren on field trips are given a hands on 'touch and feel' experience or a macro view of things. This one talks about various types of soil erosion by worms and insects. The 'rangers stations' are manned by volunteers, called docents. Of course, this Rangers' Station is empty, the guys you see here are visitors. Such a rich educational experience and yet these chaps cannot seem to get rid of their cellphone and ipod. Oh well!

In front of a packing and shipping store, these flags are supposed to tell us that you can ship anywhere in the world from here. But with the packing crate below with its 'fragile' marking, a new meaning comes out.
Puoi spendere minuti, ore, giorni, settimane o persino mesi ad analizzare una situazione; cercando di mettere insieme i pezzi, giustificando cosa sarebbe potuto accadere o cosa sarebbe stato giusto che accadesse. Oppure puoi semplicemente lasciare i pezzi sul pavimento e andare fottutamente avanti.

One of the most meaningful messages I saw at the Fragile Forest exhibit which I hoped these idiot real estate developers all over the world, and especially in Dubai,would see and understand.Sorry for the poor focus, it is probably symbolic of the hocus focus foresight of these greedy property developers who care only about money and nothing about the environment! (Singapore, Oct. 2009) (Actually, I was using a camera with a very small viewfinder by today's standards, so the focus appeared good enough on the tiny LCD screen).
At the RBSA in Birmingham until 19th October.
I can recommend this textile exhibition which shows an amazing range of textile and mixed media works
"Sunny Bank Mills:The fragility of memory in the absence of place 3" by Jane Walkley. Detail
Cotton, steel, jesmonite,mill dust and clay residue
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are

Recently I photographed a friend of mine who is pregnant, we experimented with different props, materials and angles. This was one of my favourites that i might use for a project I'm doing at the moment at college based around 'traces', she is nude and wrapped in 'fragile' tape which is used for postage. I changed the image in photoshop to make the word 'fragile' on the tape stand out at the point where it is spread across her belly. It is common to have mothers-to-be photographed nude or wrapped in fabric etc so i tried to chose something that i thought would be different and bold that said more than 'aww' when the viewer saw it. Red is most eye catching as our brains assume its warning us or signalling danger thats why many signs are in red, the writing on the tape was originally red so after making it brighter i excluded it from the change of the image whilst making it black and white. I think a lot of people are unaware of the risks there are whilst pregnant and I hope this image could make a possible awareness to people.
Fragile. I liked the way the botanical gardens where reflected in the bubble and wanted to show how fragile the things around us are. (MMR) © Patricia Fenn. All Rights Reserved. No usage allowed including copying or sharing without written permission.
One of my favourite sections of the Singapore zoo: here is the entrance to the Fragile Forest. It gives you, as the second board (seen here) says, a true rainforest experience. You find a recreated rainforest behind that mesh door, where, to the sound of a babbling brook, you have a rich collection of rainforest vegetation along with some free ranging animals. The vegetation inside was much more lush in 2009 than it was on my previous 2002 visit, hence making it difficult to spot some of the free ranging animals like the mouse deer, which I had seen in 2002. (Singapore, Oct. 2009.)
One of the small butterflies, "small blues", of the Polyommatini tribe, feeding on the leptospermum petersonii flowers.
This is processed with a preset called 'Yesteryear'. I rather like it as it reminds me of Japanese shadow puppetry.
This is from yesterday, I found the rose in my garden. You have to know, we have a really small garden and this was actually the only thing I could photograph but I like the shot.
It's january, the weather forcast predicts snow for the weekend but I can't wait for roses to bloom again, not to be frozen. We had no real snow the whole december and now I REALLY don't want it anymore. The only good thing will be that I'm gonna have something different to photograph when everything's white.
I took my last exam until february or march today! :) The week can only get better now!

A delightful wooded trail inside the Fragile Forest exhibit does give you the impression of walking inside a dense tropical rainforest. I encountered several animals beside the trail itself on my 2002 visit, unfortunately in 2009 I could see very fee. A running stream inside the exhibit fills the area with the melodious sound of a babbling brook, which makes for a very serene and peaceful experience and being one with nature. (Oct. 2009)
Handle with care.
Client session with a Mississauga mom-to-be!
She was a good sport with the stickers :)
It's been a while since my last posting of this leaf. I'm pleasantly surprised to see that this beauty has survived so long. The fragility increases daily. Winter has come and gone and I'm hoping for more time together before the landscapers do their spring trimming.
The first shots I took of this leaf were in April and May of 2010 www.flickr.com/photos/aristaria/4602900863/in/set-7215762....
Okay, so here's the thing. There's this artist? Franck de Las Mercedes? His project is, he paints boxes and sends them to people with labels like "contains strength" or "contains tranquility." He does this for free. Any time anyone asks him to send a box, he (eventually) sends a box.
Here's the catch: You can only request one. EVER.
I found out about this here on Flickr and requested one for a friend of mine who (1) is a serious art appreciator and (2) could use a little boost these days.
I told people about it and someone sent me one. And yeah: These days, I could use it.
