An exploration of color on a dreary and foggy day in Acadia National Park. Interestingly, Maritime Sunburst Lichen prefers growing on bark or wood and is less likely to be found on stone surfaces. However, in the presence of bird droppings or high nitrate content, the lichen will grow on rocks with the added nutrient enrichment.
Scales of Common brimstone (Gonepteryx rhamni, Lepidoptera, Pieridae). Some pollen grains can be seen as well.

I'm having fun with posing my cups. Far too many to work on and hard to choose which composition I like the best.
This has been treated with many layers of textures and overlays. Cropped, desaturated colour ... you name it! Photoshop CC2015.5, Lightroom CC first for tone.
A hot tea in the summer will cool you .... so come on over!! I've been into Aqua things lately .... have always been fond of it but used to be hard to find pretty things in it but it seems now, it's all over the place ... Yay!!!
Enjoy your week friends!
Celebrating the great fun that is Star Wars, Rey, Leia, and Jyn wish you much enjoyment in galaxies far, far away!
Happy Star Wars Day!

Near Buttermere, Lake District, which is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It's the longest drop waterfall in the Lake District but is hidden amongst the trees, so it's hard to see until you get close.
Callipepla squamata.
This Mexican scaled quail owes its name to its 'scaled' crest.
Rummaging about it forages for insects, seeds and berries.
Burgers' Zoo (Desert), Arnhem, the Netherlands.
Bryan and I get a little help from a fellow hiker for this shot at the bottom of The Wave.

Chicago Central 1744 climbs the grade at Scales Mound, IL with a loaded coal train back in April of 1990. The CC would take a 110 car coal train and run them as two 55 car trains into Chicago due to the grades from Dubuque, IA to Freeport, IL.
Into the gloomy distance go the intrepid RAF Voyager and a Finnish Air Force F-18 Hornet at RIAT 2023. A symbol of NATO cooperation for now and into the future. It’s hard to believe that the closest to the camera of the two aircraft is the Hornet.
Scaling the steep, snowy slopes of Am Bodach with a view beyond to Coire nan Lochan, Bidean nam Bian, Glen Coe.
I have been taking pictures of Beech Scale for a local newsletter which I edit. I am also learning how to put textures into images. Quelle coincidence! I discovered that Beech Scale makes a great sky texture. If you are interested in reading more about Beech Scale disease, go here, to my friend Andy McFarlane's excellent Michigan in Pictutes site:

(I really wanted to name this photo "Black Hole Sun", but I couldn't quite pull it off).
Some builds are destined to be revisited when the availability of pieces become attainable. Last year the chain mail armor was started using the Mixel hinges but having the look sacrificed the structural integrity of the build as the hinges kept popping off due to the tension and overall weight of the armor. It was left in pieces after a disastrous fall due to gravity from the mannequin supporting it.
Last week I spotted the round 2x2 tiles from the PAB wall and that reignited the idea for the armor which added more weight but has strengthened the overall structure. This is a loose fitting small size which suits me fine, so enjoy the new look and just in time for Halloween...
Taken from a museum at Rosario, which shows an ancient pharmacy (Farmacia Dinamarca - former Farmarcia Alemana, founded in 1881).
This was a large cake that I scaled down into mini ones. Mango passionfruit mousse with raspberry cremeux filling, joconde biscuit.
This shot was taken near Sossusvlei, Namibia. We had to get up really early to get some nice shades.

Part of Bristol Light Festival 2025
C-Scales is an audio-visual installation originally created for, and inspired by Sydney Harbour. This artwork has been reimagined for Bristol Light Festival; an array of animations will be projected onto a suspended façade of more than 1,800 CDs and DVDs. The reflections will paint the landscape and visitors with shimmering threads of light, resulting in a subtly immersive installation.
Artist: Bruce Munro
Castle Bridge, Bristol

DOODLEBUG was the common name for a self-propelled railcar. They were popular during the first part of the 20th century to provide passenger, mail and light shipping service on small regional and local networks.
This photo was found in the Elgin Park Archives with no information written on the back, so there was some speculation as to the date.
Although one of the vehicles that can be seen is a 1940 Ford station wagon.
On a different note: This photo was taken in my hometown of Sewickley, Pennsylvania, during a recent visit and the building in the background is indeed the former train station built in the early 1920's.
While setting up the shot, a car drove by, stopped, then backed up, with the driver calling out: "Hey, you're that photographer that's all over the Web!"
It was a "celebrity moment".
As for the doodlebug model... It is a heavily altered Aristo-Craft, G scale
electric train. One of my great enjoyments is doing research on the Web to discover all of the details on a particular topic. Who knew there were a half dozen variations on the front ends of these railcars?
Because of it's strong visual appeal, I chose the one that had vertical louvers that could be opened and closed to adjust the amount of airflow
cooling the diesel engine.
Here is the Setup Shot:

En la costa Bizkaina, concretamente en el llamado pueblo de los acantilados, Barrika, encontramos en una de sus playas formaciones de roca tan caprichosas como esta.
Scales on the femur of Eupholus schoenherrii (Curculionidae). Collection specimen from Papua New Guinea (Fakfak, Kwama, date unknown).
