Fishermen knitting their fish net under the lamp post...

15sec exposure.

A reminder during these warm mid-September days of what may lie ahead.

It takes a lot to keep the colours at bay

It's only wire netting but it looked beautiful this morning with its sparkling raindrops.

My first try and maybe the last, hik...

For Macro Mondays Geometry shapes. I have this mosquito net clothes pinned on a small bathroom window so I can photograph various birds that land nearby while hidden from their view. Just before this post, I posted a woodpecker photo using this technique that was taken shortly after this macro shot of the mosquito netting.

As the tide crept in the sun slipped slowly down, finally touching the waters of the Atlantic only to submerge below the horizon. The rich blood red dripped from the sky with a stillness and tranquility of deep space.

Getting ready for the next voyage.

I bought helmet netting from Milan C Madge but the pull string method he uses confused me so I cooked up my own method. All you do is buy this stuff called STICK-UM It's used to keep candles in place ask your local craft store. It comes this part wax part jelly substance.

You first cut a small part out (about 1-2 cm long and 1 cm deep)

Then you roll it around in your palm and squish it inside the inner edge of the helmet around the stud where a minifig head goes.

Last put the netting over the helmet and squish it on to the bottom of the helmet. *make sure that netting and STICK-UM are fully pressed together.

finaly cut off excess netting and voila!

Also this stuff washes off in hot soapy water and never dries!

"Seine fishing (or seine-haul fishing) is a method of fishing that employs a seine or dragnet. A seine is a fishing net that hangs vertically in the water with its bottom edge held down by weights and its top edge buoyed by floats. Seine nets can be deployed from the shore as a beach seine, or from a boat.

Boats deploying seine nets are known as seiners. There are two main types of seine net deployed from seiners: purse seines and Danish seines" - Wiki

We were visiting a greenhouse, and as I looked up, I saw this netting suspend from the greenhouse structure.

How much fun can one have playing with the netting from a bag of shells and a shiny metal tube? Oh so much...
