I believe these are Brown-belted Bumblebees, that were doing a number on the flowers in our front yard.
Rarement je me suis arrêté sur la baie de Cayola au départ des Sables-d'Olonne. C'était une erreur, les premiers jets ne sont pas encore totalement propre à mes yeux (en therme de ressentie par rapport au lieu). Mais le potentielle photographique à mon regard et donc encore inexploité va certainement être l'une de mes plus grosses tendances de ses prochains mois.
Bref c'est beau c'est la plage de la Parée et on s'y sent bien.

A blister pack of forgotten supplements found in the back of the cupboard. Taken for Macro Mondays 'In A Row' theme.
The decorative metal security front door at my father's house in Penang.
When she was alive, my grandmother would sit on the left of this and watch the world go by.
When I was a child, the only concrete in the garden were the two rows of blocks you can still see running up to the gate. Grass grew everywhere else including in the gaps between the blocks. When I was 7, I had a skipping rope race with the little girl next door. As I neared the finish line, I tripped and landed on my front tooth, breaking off a large triangular piece that my father found later that evening.
A 2nd trip to Slimbridge in Gloucestershire on the 21st January.
I was in for a shock as ALL but one of the lagoons/ponds were frozen hard and there were very few wild birds to be seen on the fields.
One of the flock of White-fronted Geese flew a bit closer on ts way out to the River Severn estuary to feed on the mud flats.
It was reported to be a Russian White-fronted Goose.

Story
Heimdall is a reconnaissance spaceship. Powered by a single yet powerful thermonuclear engine from BST (Benny Space Technologies), coupled with a high-energy particles grabber under the cockpit that helps to replenish fuel supplies on a long missions. To disperse a ridiculous amounts of heat from reactor's core a series of thermo-dump panels are mount beneath the fuselage. Being a reconnaissance ship it is also equipped with a sensors array under the cockpit and some ion cannons at each wing, you known, just in case....
Design and build
It took me more than 5 months to design and build it. A major inspiration comes from amazing artwork by Michal Kus. Especially the color-blocking and indentations at the front of the wings were a place from which I started. Along the way I shifted things my own way to suit ideas that were jumbling inside my head or I just wanted to incorporate, like the thermo-dump panels from Hamilton's series of books. There were many fun challenges along the way not only related to its geometry or color-blocking but also in making sure that this flying mosaic would be rigid. All of this required many rebuilds and tests but I had a blast doing all of this :)
Building instructions
For anyone curious how Heimdall is built or want to look at some building techniques I have created a studio model based on the actual build. It should be more handy than a regular step-by-step instructions. You can download it from here github.com/lechkulina/Heimdall

Toyo 45c view camera ,90mm f8 schneider +orange filter , tmax100 in Adox R09 1-50 15 mins. Used the limited front tilt I have on the 90mm lens for this one (hence the vignette , might invest in a recessed lens board but not sure how much more movement it would allow)
Another old shot revisited. Cropped the top as the scene was dark with bright sunlight at the top of the fall

A round headlight mounted centrally in the front of a vintage Oldsmobile. Foglight perhaps, as it already has bulbous healdlights on both sides?
I shot this out of my window while doing 80+ mph along Hwy 44 between Chickasha and Newcastle, Oklahoma back on May 21st.
The day before this kicked my butt in Paul's Valley, and the news of Moore being obliterated dampened my excitement about storm chasing for the time being. I was actually a little shaken up by the recent news.
So, in short, I wasn't searching for a storm to chase on this day... I was actually heading to my favorite BBQ drive-in in Spencer before heading to DFW to catch my flight back home when I saw this black mass to my left.
Funny enough, It was a lovely little chase that saw some great structure and thankfully didn't produce a tornado over the metro areas... but that was yet to come a week later.

Azaleas are flowering shrubs in the genus Rhododendron, particularly the former sections Tsutsusi (evergreen) and Pentanthera (deciduous). Azaleas bloom in the spring (April and May in the temperate Northern Hemisphere, and October and November in the Southern Hemisphere), their flowers often lasting several weeks. Shade tolerant, they prefer living near or under trees. They are part of the family Ericaceae.
