A fellow flickr friend asked me about how well the P900 does macro shots so I thought I would post a few examples of how it copes. Various methods of achieving macro shots on the Nikon P900. One is to use a long focal length which gives a better bokeh - but it is limited to having longish minimum focus distance. The other is to use macro focus mode and keep the lens on the wider end of the zoom scale - this gets you very close to the subject, but has a much deeper DOF.
(The focal length shown in the image data needs to be multiplied by around 5.5 to get the 35mm equivalent focal length.)
We have baby bunnies under our shed. They are incredibly brave to come out and graze casually in a yard with three dogs. They are also reluctant to leave when I try to shoo them back... cheeky!
A current trend in my hometown and around the UK are beautiful knitted toppers which are being place on the top of the iconic red postboxes.
I found this one in the harbour area, bringing colour and joy.
The King never left the building.
He just multiplied.

They were worshipped.

… except it isn’t entirely.
This was taken from the North Devon coast last November. I processed it weeks ago but I have never published it because I was never quite comfortable with sharing the result. You see, it’s more created than captured. The drama comes mainly from the processing and doesn’t reflect the original or even the way I remembered it. As the result is fairly realistic, though false, I wanted to avoid misleading folk.
But for Smile on Saturday today we have a super theme Over-processed Skies. An opportunity not to be missed, and I don’t need to care too much about the level of duplicity involved. I’ve checked some of the example gallery for the theme, and there seem to be realistic over-processed images as well as false colour ones there so I hope this will be OK. I’ll post a link to the in-camera image so you can see where we started.
Processing skies is great fun. All you need is a few tall piles of fluffy white cumulus and you are away. Polarising filters are meant to help (darkening the skies) but their effects are very direction-specific (the skies are most polarised at 90 degrees from the sun and not at all directly away from it) and they create problems with wide angles as a result.
The main object is to enhance colour and contrast. Unless the sun is low in the sky both will be low. These days raw converters offer lots of tools to help like Clarity, DeHaze (or Haze) and the usual contrast sliders.
I remember reading in a book ages ago about how to enhance skies. Just duplicate the image layer in Photoshop (or another layer-based editor such as the free online Pixlr), and then set the blend mode of the top copy to Overlay. Easy then. So having zapped the raw into a contrasty saturated .tif file using a raw converter (I actually used Darktable for that as another experiment) I did something similar with duplicated layers, using Multiply as the blend mode which produces a darker result than Overlay. I sharpened it using High Pass and Linear Light blend at a high setting which improves local contrast. I managed to get a reasonable square crop out of it to emphasise the height of the sky. Finally, I did just a little tweaking and vignetting in Nik Color Efex.
So there we are. The result reminds me of the skies of many paintings I see hanging in stately homes - Constables or Turners perhaps, or dramatic naval battles. All a bit colourful and full of over-cooked drama. Just right for amusing oneself (and others hopefully!) on a Saturday :)
Thanks for looking. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Smile on Saturday :)

This lovely little lady is getting married and we are excited to be a part of her special day. We will be heading back up to Detroit for a great weekend, but most importantly to help Shannon celebrate her milestone with her awesome fiancé Darrell. I wonder if they are planning to multiply... ;)
Stop by her photostream and wish her all the best!

After all the rain we've had my hens and chicks are multiplying rapidly!! I'll have to
start more! They're so easy to multiply! When you see a leaf fall off and it has little
root hairs on the place where it broke away from the main stem, just stick the leaf
in part sandy/part loamy soil and Voila you will have a new plant within at the longest
a week. They start out teeny tiny and really get big. I love to watch them multiply and
grow! It's so much fun!

Humans From Earth - T- Bone Burnett
www.youtube.com/watch?v=nC1rCrB8pq0
We come from a blue planet
light-years away.
Where everything multiplies
at an amazing rate.
We're out here in the universe
buying real estate
Hope we haven't gotten here too late
We're humans from earth
We're humans from earth
You have nothing at all to fear
I think we're gonna like it here
We're looking for a planet
with atmosphere.
Where the air is fresh
and the water clear.
With lots of sun
like you have here.
Three or four hundred days a year
Bought Manhattan
for a string of beads.
Brought along some gadgets
for you to see.
Here's a crazy little thing
we call TV.
Do you have electricity?
We're humans from earth
We're humans from earth
You have nothing at all to fear
I think we're gonna like it here
I know we may seem
pretty strange to you.
But we got know-how
and a golden rule.
We're here to see
manifest destiny through.
Ain't nothing we can't get used to
We're humans from earth.

WHY IS IT BLUE?
The geothermal water has a unique composition, featuring three active ingredients – Silica, Algae & Minerals.
The blue colour comes from the silica and the way it reflects sunlight. During summer there can also be a hint of green in the water. This is the result of the algae, which multiplies quickly when exposed to direct sunlight.
However, and this might come as a surprise to you, the water is actually white. If you pour it into a transparent cup, it will always have a milky white colour. The sun simply makes it look blue!

And they are multiplying! Tiny beauties are amongst the grass on my lawn. The mower misses them, that's how tiny they are! I prefer a lawn with various plants such as these. They provide food for pollinators, seeds for birds, and beauty to us!

Thank you for taking the time to view my photo, and for the faves and comments you make, thank you.
When I posted my first Space LEGO dinosaur on Flickr back in August 2015 I never expected the response it received. There was something about a stegosaurus built in the style of LEGO’s Classic Space sets that chimed with the community. Even before the popular LEGO websites picked up on the model, comments and likes were multiplying faster than I could keep track of. People I’d never spoken to before were asking if I could put the build on LEGO Ideas; they wanted to vote for it to become an official set! I was flattered, and a little confused; out of the many creations I’d posted online what made this one so special?

La lumière se trouble avec l’installation Prism Wall de Kaz Shirane. La réflexion de la lumière ainsi que la perception de nous-mêmes dans les miroirs se diffractent, se diffusent et se multiplient. Cela nous questionne sur notre image, celle que nous avons de nous-mêmes et celle que les autres ont de nous.
The light is cloudy with Kaz Shirane's installation Prism Wall. The reflection of light as well as the perception of ourselves in the mirrors diffract, diffuse and multiply. This questions us about our image, the one we have of ourselves and the one that others have of us.
