Some messing around with double exposures using the flower of a Helonica plant ("giant crab claw") which my sister-in-law very kindly gave to me on Saturday as i've been a bit unwell for about the last two weeks
Never mind that the video is black and white, the audio is silent, and the screen flickers like a bad horror movie. Rules say "bolts or other items without the matching socket will be removed"βbut what about perfectly fitting connections that refuse to work?
This SCART-to-RCA adapter is a shining example of deceptionβit plugs in smoothly, yet the signals inside are having an existential crisis. The video signal screams in RGB, but the TV only understands composite, leaving us with a washed-out mess. The audio sits quietly, confused and alone, wondering why it wasnβt invited to the party.
But hey, it fits, so it stays! Even if it means your movie looks like a ghost story filmed in 1925.
These images capture the mesmerizing beauty of water drop collisions, achieved using a Pluto Trigger and Pluto Valve for precise timing. The top layer consists of milk, while the base is water infused with red food coloring. The contrast creates a stunning visual interplay of fluid motion, forming delicate structures that last for just a fleeting moment.
Each droplet descends in milliseconds, rebounding into an intricate dance as the next drop collides. The swirling milk and red water create otherworldly formsβsome resembling volcanic eruptions, others evoking the sense of a rising phoenix. The physics behind each shot is as captivating as the aesthetic result.
By fine-tuning the drop size, delay, and flash timing, each frame becomes a unique, unrepeatable composition. A perfect example of the unpredictable nature of fluid dynamics, frozen in time.

You know that place between sleep and awake, the place where you can still remember dreaming? That's where I'll always love you.

One of the things I learned the hard way was that it doesnβt pay to get discouraged. Keeping busy and making optimism a way of life can restore your faith in yourself.

These square golden plates are about 1 mm wide and are placed around the gel refill as decoration ... a bit like a Christmas snow globe
the pen is about 1.1 cm in diametre
Happy Macro Mondays, everyone
This is a white Gaur flower of which we have many in one of the flower beds. For some reason I find them a bit difficult to photograph but I thought this one wasn't too bad.
Happy Friday! :-)
This is another result of doing something with a red feather and my Euphorbia trigona (African Milk Tree). I've always thought it was a cactus but this morning I learned otherwise after consulting Madame Google. You can see in the photo one of many very small leafs which are still covering the plant following an upsurge in growth during July. I've brought it inside now for the winter as they don't like the cold (we have that in common...) π
