I'd smashed my wide-angle lens the previous day and was under a cloud when i arrived at Ruby beach. But when a place looks this good you have to move on and get snapping.

Ruby Mag is back! After 3 months, Ruby has a new issue with 8 fantastic artists! Issue #36 includes: jonathan jacques, pablo lehmann, dustin aksland, ramsey arnaoot, tom moore, victoria haven, luo yang and paul matosic.
Ruby was working in part of Bridlington’s Treasure Island amusement arcade when I saw her. As there wasn’t anyone at her counter, I decided to go over and introduce my stranger project to her.
I asked Ruby to stand near the front of her counter so more daylight illuminated her and then all I had to do was choose my angle so that nothing too bright or colourful appeared in the background as they would become distractions.
Ruby told me she had worked in Treasure Island for a year. Ruby had taken this job to support her whilst she studied law at college. Ruby was now in the second year of her course and when this was completed, she’d go to university to continue her studies. Ruby said her ultimate goal was to become a defence lawyer.
If Ruby could change one thing in the world it would be to make everything cheaper.
Thank-you Ruby for saying yes to being photographed for my stranger project. I hope you like your portrait.
This picture is number 407 in my 100 Strangers project, yes, I’ve decided to do a fifth round. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the 100 Strangers Flickr Group page

Caught in the moth trap set up in the garden last night - a ruby tiger. They look nothing special until you get some lighting on them and then go for exposure of the underwings and body. Then they are gorgeous.
Little Ruby is much desired new member in Silver Birdie family. She was born by Caesarean as the only puppy. Now she is looked after with maximum effort and love in order to ease her start:)
Well... know of another little guy like this having a serious photo shoot in the age of five days? :D

Painting acrylic on canvas,size 50+50 cm,2018.I love rubies, they are beautiful and I especially like their color.
MOC: Ruby Roadster. This started out as a hot rod, but turned into something altogether more classy - which I'm rather pleased with.
Ruby-throated Hummingbirds have many skeletal and flight muscle adaptations which allow the bird great agility in flight. Muscles make up 25-30% of their body weight, and they have long, bladelike wings that, unlike the wings of other birds, connect to the body only from the shoulder joint. This adaptation allows the wing to rotate almost 180°, enabling the bird to fly not only forward but also straight up and down, sideways, and backwards, and to hover in front of flowers as it feeds on nectar and insects.
During hovering, ruby-throated hummingbird wings beat 55x/sec, 61x/sec when moving backwards, and at least 75x/sec when moving forward.
Photographed along the Yakima River at Ringer Road, Kittitas County, Washington. Although not the best photos I wanted to upload an image that shows the ruby crown for which the bird is named. IMG_9972

Here’s another Ruby-throated hummingbird, this time at lantana ‘miss huff’ and farther away than the one on August 26, so more of a focusing challenge for my camera, but I like the black background.
