Some young leaves growing on a curry tree - Murraya koenigii. Although available in abundance in Mauritius, people tend to ignore its multiple health benefits.
I was trying to shoot bigger things (than flies) using the reverse lens method. Quite noisy due to the ISO.
This was taken from my kitchen window. That involved me climbing on the kitchen counter, putting my feet on the sink, and propping my arms up on the window sill. I realized just how insane this probably looked when someone slowly drove past my house. I felt like a reverse peeping tom.
I know the leaves look insanely red, but it had just finished raining. That's just how they looked.
Funny enough I took this before I left the house headed to Holla Bend. I ended up getting the best "wildlife" shot of the day in my own front yard. I could have saved the 2 hour drive!
Colette completely missed the point of the various celeb ads for PETA... To be honest, all she caught was "naked" and "fur."
There's some obscure handwriting on the reverse side of this vintage photograph. It appears to be in an East Asian hand – possibly Thai script. Two German names – Rücker and Zimmerman – are written in Latin letters.

It's Christmas time guys!
Can't wait, favorite time of the year.
It actually snowed a foot here! That is so much we usually don't get any before Christmas!
I have a feeling that this year is going to be good!
I like being able to look outside at night when theres snow because its so much brighter and its like daytime out.
Drosophilidae is a diverse, cosmopolitan family of flies, including the genus Drosophila, which includes fruit flies. The best known species is Drosophila melanogaster that is used extensively for studies concerning genetics, development, physiology, ecology, behaviour, etc. The fruit fly is mostly composed of post-mitotic cells, has a very short lifespan, and shows gradual aging. Like in other species, temperature influences the life history of the animal. Several genes have been identified whose manipulation extends the lifespan of these animals.
The reverse of this picture ( www.flickr.com/photos/addie-b/15531915083/in/photostream/ ). I believe the writing on the bottom says "Zur freundl[ichen] Erinnerung an dein Patenkind „Hildegard“! Weihnachten 1918." which roughly translates to "In friendly remembrance of your godchild "Hildegard"! Christmas 1918."
A Reverse Osmosis skid is used to clean up water by forcing it through a very small membrane... which filters out large molecules.
For 4th of July Badger Shoreline Cruise, second for 2010, reservations were made last fall, before announced.
A stern bridge facilitates a summer afternoon reverse docking in Manitowoc Wisconsin, office in background.
Until 2006, all vehicles had to arrive over a mile to the south, where passengers would park in grass on the shoulders.
After removing, filling in the second dock, where the wide concrete road is now, north access & parking were added along with landscaping bridge lighting & sidewalk! Picnote Lake Michigan Carferry,

"REVERSE OSMOSIS is a membrane separation process for removing solvent from a solution. When a semi-permeable membrane separates a dilute solution from a concentrated solution, solvent crosses from the dilute to the concentrated side of the membrane in an attempt to equalize concentrations.For more information visit www.ecosmart-water.com

Pioneers and notable practitioners of reverse swing have mostly been Pakistani fast bowlers. Former Pakistan international Sarfraz Nawaz was the founder of reverse swing during the late 1970s, and he passed his knowledge on to former team-mate Imran Khan[1], who in turn taught the duo of Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis. The English pair of Andrew Flintoff and Simon Jones are also well known for the ability to reverse swing the ball having been taught by Troy Cooley [2]. The Indian pace duo of Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma, coached by Venkatesh Prasad, used reverse swing, which enabled India to win the home series against Australia in 2008[3].
In the early days of reverse swing, Pakistani bowlers were suspected of ball tampering to achieve the conditions of the ball that allow reverse swing, but today they are considered to simply have been ahead of their time.
Normal swing occurs mostly when the ball is fairly new. As it wears more, the aerodynamics of the asymmetry change and it is more difficult to extract a large amount of swing.
When the ball becomes very old—around 40 or more overs old, it can begin to swing towards the polished side rather than the rough side. This is known as reverse swing (Andrew Flintoff and Simon Jones have been known to produce reverse swing in balls as young as 15 overs old[4]). Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma of India also managed to get the reverse swing as early as just 8 overs[5]. In essence, both sides have turbulent flow, but here the seam causes the airflow to separate earlier on one side. The result is always a swing to the side with the later separation, so the swing is away from the seam. (See External Links.)
Reverse swing is difficult to achieve consistently, as it relies on uneven wear of the ball, tends to occur mostly in hot, dry weather conditions, and requires bowling at high speed. Normal swing can be achieved at relatively moderate bowling speeds, but only the fastest bowlers can regularly produce reverse swing.
Reverse swing tends to be stronger than normal swing, and to occur late in the ball's trajectory. This gives it a very different character from normal swing, and because batsmen experience it less often, they generally find it much more difficult to defend against. It is also possible for a ball to swing normally in its early flight, and then to reverse as it approaches the batsman. This can be done in two ways[citation needed]: one for the ball to reverse in the opposite direction to the original swing, giving it an "S" trajectory; and the other for it to reverse in the same direction making the swing even more pronounced. Either way it can be very devastating for the batsman: in the first instance, he is already committed to playing one way, which is often the wrong way to play swing in the opposite direction; and in the second instance, his stance will have conformed to dealing with the degree of expected swing and could leave him vulnerable to being caught behind, LBW or bowled. Two back to back deliveries from Wasim Akram, one of each type, were considered to be the turning point of the 1992 World Cup Final.
Controversy regarding reverse swing has never left modern cricket, as the Pakistani team was accused of ball tampering by the controversial Australian umpire Darrell Hair during the fourth test against England in 2006 when the ball began to reverse swing after the 50th over.[citation needed] His co-umpire Billy Doctrove fully supported him in this action. A hearing subsequently found that there was insufficient evidence to convict anyone of ball tampering.
