RUBY BARBIE PRINCESS birthday cake for a good friends little girl called Ruby - Ive used skintone fondant icing to make the face and torso and fondant coloured red for the overdress. The cake was a 2 layer caramel cake (Dads favourite flavour)

This experiment was an attempt to recreate the fluorescence of chromium activated corundum (aka 'ruby'). Aluminum hydroxide was mixed with 1-4 drops of Cr(III) oxide in a basic solution. This was placed on a small amount of aluminum sulfate in an aluminum foil container and a bit of water was added.
The sample was then heated, first with a propane torch until the water was removed and then with a MAPP gas torch until the aluminum sulfate expanded into foam, trapping the aluminum hydroxide which was calcined into aluminum oxide by the torch's flame. (at least that was the plan)
Shown also is a natural ruby from Mysore, India.

Let me introduce to you Ruby. She's a stunning Gentle River customised by the amazing Cupcake Curio. I've been smitten by her girls ever since meeting once in person, and I'm so happy to have this one come home!
Ruby-throated hummingbird drinks from a feeder.
Strobist: Three 580EXII on stands surrounding the feeder at 1/64 -1/3 at around 10" away. Waited until the ambient dropped well below the flash exposure, 1/250 @ f/11, ISO 100 to knock the background to black. This left me about 10 minutes to shoot, triggering with Pocket Wizards.

This ruby-throated hummingbird was fiercely guarding the hummingbird feeder we set up at out camp site. I'm afraid she was probably devastated when we left.

Ruby-crowned Kinglets are one of the busiest birds I have ever seen. They hardly ever sit still and are always flicking those wings. They always make me smile. Wyandotte, Kansas.
Just received a bulk roll of expired but freezer stored 35mm Agfa APX100 film.
Loaded a short roll in my Pentax SP2, grabbed the 50/1.4 and Ruby and we went into the backyard for a quick film test.

The New York City Department of Transportation and THE POINT Community Development Corporation have partnered with Bronx-based artist Sharon De La Cruz to present "Ruby Walks," a series of painted metal panels depicting Ruby Bridges along a bridge at Hunts Point Avenue between Bruckner Boulevard and Garrison Avenue. As part of the open call held by THE POINT, artists were asked to explore "portraits" that relate to the past and present in their surrounding neighborhood. Cruz chose the iconic image of Ruby Bridges, the first African American student to attend an all-white elementary school in the South, because she represents change, community and female empowerment.
The POINT Community Development Corporation is a non-profit organization dedicated to youth development and the cultural and economic revitalization of the Hunts Point section of the South Bronx. Through live performances, exhibitions, public art projects and community workshops, THE POINT's Arts and Cultural Programs are dedicated to the cultivation and preservation of the South Bronx culture.

I was trying to entice this ruby-throated hummingbird to take nectar from this yellow lantana. This is as close as it would come.
Trataba de atraer este colibrí gorjirrubí para que tomara néctar de esta lantana amarilla. Esto representa qué tan de cerca llegaba el colibrí a la planta.
