Internal lens reflections, more commonly known as lens flare, can both be a blessing and a curse.
Every photographer can think of multiple examples where they either bless the presence of lens flare, or curse the lens for being so flare prone.
In this case, I did my best to get the most and most beautiful lens flare I could produce. Vintage lenses often are more flare-prone then modern ones, due to the lack of (modern) coatings.
Helped by my trusty LED flashlight and by using my most flare-prone lens, I created this photograph for Crazy Tuesday, theme Reflections
Lens used is the Unitax Auto Zoom 70-230mm f/4 MC Macro, a vintage zoom lens build by Sun Optical. Focal length around 140mm and f/8.

These are the little details I keep taking about that I build into the structure, to represent various systems like power generators, cooling units, shield projectors, and such. If I build it right, most of it will be invisible, with sometimes little hints of color peeking out if viewed from just the right angle. I have to say, I really enjoy this part of the build. It feels like adding some verisimilitude to what’s ultimately an imaginary lump of plastic.

Bauhaus Dessau, Germany - architect Walter Gropius, 1925-'26
"The basic structure of the Bauhaus consists of a clear and carefully thought-out system of connecting wings, which correspond to the internal operating system of the school. The technical construction of the building... is demonstrated by the latest technological development of the time: a skeleton of reinforced concrete with brickwork, mushroom-shaped ceilings on the lower level, and roofs covered with asphalt tile that can be walked upon. The construction area consisted of 32,450 cubic meters and the total cost amounted to 902,500 marks. Such an economical achievement was possible only due to the assistance of the Bauhaus teachers and students, which at the same time, of course, could be viewed as an ideal means of education." - from Udo Kultermann. Architecture in the 20th Century.
This shot was taken in the foyer looking up. This would have to be the most unique internal staircase in a city building in Melbourne.
I've been experimenting with these long exposures. Well this one wasn't actually very long, only half a second. I was on the Manhattan Bridge and didn't have a tripod with me. Just wedged the camera against the rail. A lot of the shots I took weren't sharp enough. Plus the bridge is so shaky do to trains and cars passing its hard to get a steady shot...

Until I decided to post this photo, I called these guys Tomato Hornworms...turns out I've been wrong about that for *years*. They're *Tobacco* Hornworms. Who knew? Well, not me.
======================
From Wikipedia:
Manduca sexta is a moth of the family Sphingidae present through much of the American continent. The species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in his 1763 Centuria Insectorum.
Commonly known as the Carolina sphinx moth and the tobacco hawk moth (as adults) and the tobacco hornworm and the goliath worm (as larvae), it is closely related to and often confused with the very similar tomato hornworm (Manduca quinquemaculata); the larvae of both feed on the foliage of various plants of the family Solanaceae. The tobacco hornworm is sometimes kept as a pet by children throughout its range. The larvae of these species can be distinguished by their lateral markings: Tomato hornworms have eight V-shaped white markings with no borders; tobacco hornworms have seven white diagonal lines with a black border. Additionally, tobacco hornworms have red horns, while tomato hornworms have dark blue or black horns. A mnemonic to remember the markings is tobacco hornworms have straight white lines like cigarettes, while tomato hornworms have V-shaped markings (as in "vine-ripened" tomatoes).
Larva:
M. sexta larvae are green and grow up to 70 millimeters in length. Under laboratory conditions, when fed a wheat-germ-based diet, larvae are turquoise due to a lack of pigments in their diet. M. sexta hemolymph (blood) contains the blue-colored protein insecticyanin. When the larva feeds on plants, it ingests pigmentacious carotenoids. Carotenoids are primarily yellow in hue. The resulting combination is green.
During the larval stage, M. sexta caterpillars feed on plants of the family Solanaceae, principally tobacco, tomatoes and members of the genus Datura. M. sexta has five larval instars, which are separated by ecdysis (molting), but may add larval instars when nutrient conditions are poor. Near the end of this stage, the caterpillar seeks a location for pupation, burrows underground, and pupates. The searching behaviour is known as "wandering". The imminence of pupation suggested behaviorally by the wandering can be anatomically confirmed by spotting the heart (aorta), which is a long, pulsating vessel running along the length of the caterpillar's dorsal side. The heart becomes visible through the skin just as the caterpillar is reaching the end of the final instar.
A common biological control for hornworms is the parasitic braconid wasp Cotesia congregata, which lays its eggs in the bodies of the hornworms. The wasp larvae feed internally and emerge from the body to spin their cocoons. Parasitized hornworms are often seen covered with multiple white, cottony wasp cocoons, which are often mistaken for large eggs. A wasp species, Polistes erythrocephalus, feeds on hornworm larvae.

Here is a little experimentation I did. After I've seen some funny "little planet" pics, I wanted to do it with a landscape but with the sky inside instead of outside...

today I said to myself - my goodness, my photos are getting repetitive. so I thought about what would break that, and what came to mind was CLOSE UP and BLUE. so here we go.
