Thinking about this week's Crazy Tuesday theme of "Trees and Leaves"and while our trees are just getting underway, the leaves seem to be turning brown and dropping at the same time. The jury's still out on a nice colorful Fall but we'll see in the upcoming days/weeks. I love the look of the hickory tree with it's compound leaf but I've already posted one of the leaflets so I needed something a bit different. I looked around the yard and this one grouping caught my eye. A hickory leaf with 3 leaflets, all brown but loaded with character (IMO), I knew it would be all about the lighting and this has a main light to the left and above camera, additional fill to the right and a bit from the back-top for a hair light. The grouping measures about 5 in. tall X 4 in. wide X 2 in. deep. I was hoping for a B&W conversion but the brown color won out in the end.

St Michael & All Angels Church is a Chapel of Ease of Youlgrave parish church. According to Kelly's Directory of 1912, its chapel building was for many years disused when it was restored in 1899, and an earlier chapel at Middleton is also mentioned in a guide leaflet for Youlgrave Parish Church, which disappeared after the Reformation, along with others at Gratton and Stanton,
...Let it be! They don't have to be shiny. They don't have to be red. But these new leaflets are both. Regular walkers here know there is plenty of poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans) growing alongside this path overlooking the sea. You couldn't be blamed for starting to itch just looking at it.
Newly unwrapped palm frond is uncurling its myriad of leaflets. It's part of a small, low palm that recently got a brand new set of fronds which rose from the center of the stem like a knot of finger-thick snakes. They are now unfurling, looking very frond-like, but do not yet have their needle sharp spines.
Macro Mondays - theme: All Natural
One more of the series of shots from the Museum. This one was a bit tricky though. I had light coming directly on the leaf from the other end, as in direct sunlight. I had to move away to face the tree truck but then now i ended up with lesser light. Cheap Canon lenses are not all that sharp unless you go smaller than f/7.1.
Finally i switched to manual, went to F/11 and fired the flash from the Canon Speedlite 430EX to evenly light up these leaves. Interestingly i'm getting to see how light has DoF here. The background from the leaves seems to have been darkened out in the bokeh.
Looks good on large

The 1965 British Overseas Airways Corporation (better known as BOAC) bar tariff leaflet cover - anyone for a Martini Cocktail at 3s 6d? In the top corner can be seen the BOAC "Speedbird" symbol, designed for the airline's predecessor Imperial Aiways in 1932 by Theyre Lee-Elliott and that continued in use for British Airways, the sucessor company to BOAC until 1984.
