Called also Fig wax scale, in this image on a Frangipani leaf. What you see is the heavy waxy cover of a female that remains a "grub" (juvenile form) without obvious legs, eyes or antennae that stays protected and lays eggs. A simple life. Found occasionally locally on Frangipani leaves (pictured), and on the leaves of coconut palms. I have not yet seen a male: a 1-2 mm tiny winged insect that does not feed and lives a day or two.
For Our Daily Challenge: SCALE is the Topic for 28 November 2010
OK, I know when the bark starts to come off the tree these things are called scales, right? It comes off in scaly sections? I need you to agree with me because the dictionary is not being helpful! Anyway, here is my interpretation for "scales"! Voila!

Worth the scramble up the left-hand side to get to the upper reaches but care needed if it's wet and greasy, which it often is.
A man working on the exterior of the dome of the Capitol in Washington DC gives one a sense of the scale of the building.
A heavy yet extremely durable, heat and fire proof shield, absorbs fire damage as well.
this very scale originates from a endangered sub species of a kanohi dragon, often found near lava or deep in its silver mine as its nest.
The Dragon Warrior model of a advanced engineered torch that creates a blade of Fire. The mobile variant offers great performance thats easy to master, requiring less energy from its own source and its user, making it very economical friendly. Its precision focus a perfect and sharp beam of only fire. Strong, Light and Fast. Reaching melting temperatures.
Compared to the Dragon Elder, Tahu's beastly class torch, burns hotter and requires more hard training to master and is incredibly more taxing.
Toa Hotaru
Kanohi: Aki Hau
Younger Brother: Flaris
Element: Blaze
Class: Elite Samurai
Abilities: advanced fire bending and shaping his flames into a katana
Hotaru & Flaris were two young brotherly matoran, starting as low level knights in training in hopes one day they would become Toa. Hotaru was the oldest and a bit more skilled, sharping his and flaris abilities. The two trained, fought and hunted together for years. While most Ta-matoran took work in making masks all day, the brothers were busy earning their place. Hotaru took lessons with the very few that wanted to challenge the makuta. Flaris invested his time into researching armor and weapons and caught up on lessons passed to him from his best friend. The matorans courage & hard work would pay off when the day came for them to begin their future as Toa. Hotaru was the first to evolve into one and quickly joined a team, he said his good byes and took off. Flaris would also evolve into knighthood in the near future

I might still play around with the edit on this. But it I try my best and it was fun to do :)
I got the idea of having a big me and a little me randomly. I thought I could do it, so I whipped out my camera and decided to stand on the bathroom scale for good measure :) I ended up looking more frightened of myself than I intended, but its okay. I believe my oddly shaped feet and toes are enough to frighten anyone ;)
Hoping everyone is having a superb day! I can't believe my birthday is tomorrow. It doesn't feel real...
PS- My hair is pulled up into a bun. I just now realized that it looks a little odd..

Remarks/comments: This came in the mail yesterday, took a little while because of the Canada Post strike right before the holidays. I discovered this brand of scale models about a month ago. They've been around for a couple of years and have released some really nicely detailed pieces. (Their FB page: www.facebook.com/pg/XCARTOYS/about/?ref=page_internal) I've been trying to find a diecast scale car of a car I've owned in 1/1 scale. I've had some pretty mundane cars in the past so it isn't easy. I owned a '92 Jetta in Seafoam Green which was affectionately named the "Teal Machine" while I had it.
I would almost compare these little guys next to Tomica Limited Vintage Neo in regards to details and weight. Though the size is bit larger than 1/64. I would say it is more around 1/59.
Skógafoss is huge. My tall 6'11"; friend is, for once, tiny. And drenched.
The water plunges from a height of a 14 storey building (60m) to a deafening roar. My phone was getting sprayed with mist a hundred feet away.
I shot this in 2016, but never posted it. After transforming this image with the Prisma app, I used many of the tools provided by Snapseed Photo Share to fix it up. The two historic airplanes are also change banks, one from Shell Oil and the other from Texaco. The plastic car was a gift from my grandson, Jackson. It came with a set of scale tools which I keep in the trunk. It’s a Chrysler convertible from the 1950s, I believe. The ruler I used for years when I was a graphic designer. It came from a type shop in Detroit.

I have a diecast model of a 1946 Ambulance that would work well in a scene, but there wasn't a stretcher included with the model. Hmmmm, why not make one, I thought.
In my "parts" box I found some left over brass window frames that had potential for the stretcher's base. And then there was the trusty aluminum tubing that could stand in for the detailing.
It was a plan.
About 10 hours later, there was a little stretcher on my work mat.
Gotta love the web for photo references!
