For the Macro Mondays theme "Line Symmetry."
Pixie likes her photos, but she doesn't like to have the lens pointed at her for very long. Getting a shot this close aimed right at her nose was challenging, and she was very patient while we held her nose steady. She was, of course, rewarded with treats.
Looking at this photo, I found the difference between the large scale linear symmetry and the asymmetry of the fine details interesting.
Post processing: straightened, cropped, and sharpened.
Lighting info:
* Key: SB-28 through a white umbrella directly behind and a little above me. I wanted to make sure that I'd get good coverage with the light no matter how Pixie turned her head.
Triggered with RadioPopper JrX Studio radio triggers.
Recently, pixie hair cuts have become somewhat of a fashion trend with everyone and anyone with the right and wrong face shapes attempting to recreate such a look.
Cladonia species of lichen, growing in small colonies on moss-covered dry stone walls in Cressbrook Dale, Derbyshire Peak District. Possibly Cladonia asahinae which favours moss.
Pixie Hollow's newest addition, the fast-flying fairy Vidia. (My roommate let me borrow her camera ^^).

It isn’t pink, but it’s pixied. I love having short hair! I feel both tomboy-ish and elegant.

. From many stories it can be presumed that pixies are good, that one should want them to visit (as long as the house is clean). The picture, however, isn't quite so clear as sometimes pixies bring ill luck and cause nothing but trouble.
Washington, DC - Miss Pixie's is a wonderful used furniture and accessories shop in DC where generations of people have found cool, funky, amazing items and given them new life in their homes. We all hope the shop will survive the pandemic. This is a photo of the Miss Pixie car across the street from the Miss Pixie shop, featuring its signature color - you guessed it - pink.
As Arthur C Clarke noted, any sufficiently advanced technology is is indistinguishable from magic. In the case of Magnetic Resonance Imaging scanners, the boundaries between technology and magic are blurred. Although we radiologists are taught in-depth MRI physics, the adage is that 'If you think you understand MRI physics, you don't'.
Hence many radiologist suspect that these machines have their internal workings controlled by pixies. This suspicion has now been affirmed - I captured one of these elusive pixies on camera just this morning.
This Siemens Aera is a state-of-the-art scanner at the Spire Hospital in Bristol where I do some 'humanitarian' work [ahem].
It is a hugely impressive machine; 4.8 tonnes in weight with a niobium-titanium superconducting magnet bathed in liquid helium (-269ºC), which itself is insulated by liquid nitrogen (-196ºC). This said, scanning is remarkable safe. So long as you aren't sporting ferromagnetic foreign bodies within you.
Interestingly MRI was largely invented by Sir Peter Mansfield who shared the Nobel prize in 2003. Sir Peter should not be confused with his namesake Flickrite, the all-round good egg Zenas M.
Thank you very much andreea for the amazing work you did with Pixie, I can't stop looking at her, she is just PERFECT! :)
I love these mini casseroles! So much fun.
Picked them up a few years ago, to use with my Blue Heaven dishes.
This is Pixie - six months ago nervous, suspicious, dull, brown and balding, and more recently having transformed into a confident, relaxed gleaming black beauty.
Yesterday she won her first prize - 5th Best 6 months - 2 Year Old Greyhound Bitch at the Great Greyhound Gathering.
I'm very proud, that was a terrific achievement for her.
