Taking pictures of igniting matches was so much fun (even if I only did that during 10 minutes), that I show one more. This one is cool, because you can see what happens during the ignition, sparkles and smoke are ejected, and the flame is also quite crazy.
I used the flash once again

This week's Macro Mondays effort on the theme of Plugs and Jacks. Have tried to think outside the box on this one, but it does fit the brief of 'an attached cable for electricity or data transport' as spark plugs are connected to ht leads to deliver electricity to the combustion chamber of an engine. Anyhoo, HMM y'all!
I tried to take pictures of the ignition of a match, and that is the first picture I got, I'm quite happy about it.
I used the macro lens and the flash from behind left.
I didn't rework the picture, just the standard contrast and color adjustments!

For my very good Flickr friend, Rich Eye, whose work is always fascinating and often stunning. While sadly committing only part-time to the solitary existence of the Northwoods, credit is given for actually being closer to Thoreau in Maine, while serious demerits must be given for maintaining some incomprehensible interest in Manhattan. I'll give the former Ivy League professor a grade of B...maybe B+ overall...;-) Anyone who taught and wrote about Tolstoy is okay by me. Вот к Вам, моему хорошему другу...
The series represents only full rotation...something Rich might appreciate...

The flash is coming from the right, I lit the match using a lighter and shot the photo halfway through the ignition.
This photo is in my blurb.com book, multiple photographic disorder.

Deer Lake, Burnaby, BC.
This was without a doubt one of the most incredible sunrises I've personally photographed. Between the captures and the edit, these will be possibly my finest work to date.

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Just a shot that appealed to my eye with the composition, juxtaposition and shiny suit. Wishing all of my Flickr friends a fabulous weekend with many great shutter clicks - enjoy!

Aimless tinkering lead me here. I started with 1 back light, then the vape, next the hand swiftly followed by a sweep of the DIY V24 and then finished with a fractalesque filter.
Shot during a single long exposure from the warmth of my kitchen in complete darkness.
For the Macro Mondays theme of 'transportation'. The ignition button in our car replaces the ignition key you'd get in other models and sits on the dash to the left of the steering wheel . It is less than an inch in diameter.
The old medium frequency radio broadcast station built in 1950, decommissioned in 2012 [1], as a silhouette in front of an impressive colorful sunset. Placed in the heart of Europe, this station is able to reach every point between Barcelona and Warschow. Despite being potentially pretty useful in an emergency situation, the station may be deconstructed due to high costs, soon.

Destination Moon
Tintin's rocket - J, J, & J style: Do you remember John, Jim and James (please see first comment or the album)? This is a prequel to their adventures with the mighty Dimension Skipper®. John somehow got hold of the construction plans of the test rocket XFLR6, and one sunny day they took off on their first journey to space - to the moon! Or did they?
Recorded aboard the XFLR6, the atmosphere was somewhat edgy, tense...: "John, are you sure you've got the complete construction plans for the XFLR6? This thing feels kind of clumsy, as if a child had drawn the plans." "Oh, oh, good old Jim, always the charmer, aren't you? If you think that you can do better than me, just do it yourself!!!" "Please, John, calm down. You are so squeamish ever since you've quit smoking", Jim said. "It's just... this thing feels so half-baked... Maybe we should have delayed the launch." At this moment James joined the conversation: "Seems we are getting slower. Maybe we are running low on fuel, I'll just check... Yep. John, please light up some matches!" "Matches? What are you talking about?!? Do you guys ever listen to me? I've quit smoking! I didn't bring any matches!! I don't want to risk a relapse. Sheesh!!!" "Err, John???" Jim felt a certain panic rise inside himself... "You DO know that this is a match-fuelled rocket? We were talking about this just before take-off?" "Don't be pathetic, Jim", John barked. "We are almost there, and of course I've packed some floaties." "Floati...!!!! No! This isn't real. This is a nightmare, got to wake up, got to wake up, got to get out of here...!!!" ... "Jim, Jim, hey, honey, wake up!" Jim heard Lucy's (Jim's wife; editor's note) voice from afar... then he felt a pinch on his arm - and woke up, and looked into Lucy's big brown eyes. "Oh honey, how often did I tell you you shouldn't read your old Tintin books at night. They'll just give you nightmares. Will you ever grow up. John just called, he said the Dimension Skipper® is ready for launch. Oh, and he specifically asked me to remind you to bring some matches. Weird. I thought he'd just quit smoking... Oh well, there goes another New Year's resolution. No grit, he didn't even keep it up 'til February..."
Size of the scene: 7 cm / 2,7 inches, arranged upside down, then rotated the image to the left. Match attached to the back of the rocket with adhesive tape. Thin strip of black cardboard attached to the rocket with adhesive tape as well, attached to a sheet of black glitter foam sheet with a clamp; I then retouched the black cardboard strip with the Healing Brush. Had a glass of water within reach, just in case the paper rocket would catch fire, but to my astonishment the match went out by itself everytime, and the rocket is still intact ;-)
By the way, this is my 500th photo on Flickr ;-)
A Happy Macro Monday Everyone ;-)
