Temperatures have been in the 90’s and will be that way for a while around here, I look outside and the squirrels are sprawled out on my lawn and patio.
This pecan cluster was on the property of a house my son and I visited while in Las Cruces, New Mexico. The house was near the pecan farms on the south side of town and had plenty of mature pecan and apple trees. This little cluster came home with the dried apples. I shot the image with a silver background which turned into a nice modeled looking grey bokeh. I like a slight gray to the background as it's easier to add a texture in post. For the Macro Mondays group, "Texture" theme.
Shot with: VOIGTLANDER, 125mm f/2.5 SL, MACRO APO-LANTHAR @ f/8.0, 17 Layer Focus Stack Rendered w/ Helicon Focus. The size here is approximately 2.5 inches x 2.5 inches.
Textures from Skeletalmess and Lenabem-Anna.
Stanley lies in the Roaring Forties, and so weather like this is not unusual when the storms blow in off the Southern Ocean. Here we see the volcanic plug called "The Nut" rising its full 152 metres above the small fishing village. But clearly, as you can see from this photograph, the rain is falling and the wind is howling.
Question: ‘what have you been doing outside in the dark’
Answer: ‘setting different nuts alight with lighter fluid and taking shots of the smoke’

There’s a betel stand on almost every street corner in Yangon, Myanmar's capital. It usually consists of a tiny table with ingredients laid out and a guy with red drool down his chin preparing the chews. Tiny pieces of the betel nut are set in a leaf, with lime paste, tobacco and who knows what else. The whole mess is then wrapped in the leaf and popped into the mouth. Chewing betel nut can cause a variety of health problems, including oral cancers.

#Nuts
Pareidolia gone nuts? I was lucky that I still had the package of walnut halves that I'd bought for the "In Ice" theme (please see the first comment). So I thought I'd continue that story: a "brain", finally freed from the restrictions of its former ice skull housing – what would it do? I think it would begin to curiously discover its new world, discover its own intellect (without the interfering thoughts of its previous owner) – much like a child that grows up and gets more and more independent, and has an enormous hunger for knowledge, but also for mischief and fun :) My first idea was to make a pair of glasses for the brain / walnut; I thought I'd use jewellery wire for it, but then I looked at the small walnut halves and the thin wire, and thought: impossible! Unachievable! Too difficult for my clumsy hands! Well, I might have given it a (most likely unsuccessful) try, but went looking for nuts in the toolbox instead, nuts small enough to serve as eyes. So may I introduce you to Frankie, the brain that set out to conquer the macro world – but should adjust its eyes first :)
Happy Macro Monday, Everyone, stay safe and healthy!
Die Muttern aller Kopfnüsse
So erschien mir dieses Thema zunächst – es erwies sich dann aber als erstaunlich leicht und schnell umsetzbar. Zum Glück hatte ich noch Walnüsse vom Thema "In Ice" übrig, und so dachte ich auch gleich daran, die Geschichte des "Gehirns" im Eisschädel (siehe ersten Kommentar) weiterzuspinnen. Was würde so ein Gehirn, plötzlich ganz auf sich allein gestellt, weil vom Eise, damit aber auch von den störenden Gedanken seines ehemaligen Besitzers befreit, wohl tun? Ich könnte mir vorstellen, dass es wie ein Kind seine neue Welt erkundet, wissbegierig und neugierig, dabei auch stets zum einen oder anderen Unfug bereit. Um also der Walnuss alias Hirn ein Gesicht zu geben, dachte ich daran, ihm / ihr eine Brille aus Schmuckdraht zu basteln. Je mehr ich aber überlegte, wie ich das wohl elegant anstellen könnte (z.B. unter Zuhilfenahme von Buntsstiften für die runde Gläserform), ohne mir dabei die Finger und gleich auch noch den Draht unrettbar zu verbiegen, desto lauter wurde der (gedankliche) Ruf nach einer einfacheren Lösung. Also habe ich den Werkzeugkasten nach möglichst kleinen Muttern als "Augen" durchstöbert – und wurde zum Glück fündig :) Darf ich also vorstellen: Frankie, das Hirn :)
Ich wünsche Euch eine schöne erste Mai-Woche, passt gut auf Euch auf und bleibt gesund!

Wires erased and finished in Photoshop. Easy to do, just need a bit of garden and a squirrel of course, it's a bit of fun and something to do during lock down.😉👍
...because somebody had to do it!

My new favorite is the Coffee Nut M&M's they help satisfy my coffee fix.
Happy Smile on Saturday and have a fun weekend!
Yesterday's walk in Regent's park. It's surprisingly that robins love nuts too! This birdie came to the same bench I was sitting on and took a piece of nut I offered to the squirrel.
Thank you all for visits, faves and comments, it's greatly appreciated!
Looking Close on Friday - Nuts and Bolts
Happy Looking Close on Friday everyone.
Hope this is OK, as it is only 1 nut and 1 bolt :)
