Novel nano-scale optical waveguides based on the defects in periodic arrays of silicon nano-pillars. The picture represents a scanning electron microscope image of a periodic array of silicon nano-pillars, having a height of 1µm and diameter of about 100nm. The line defects, of about 800nm, introduced in these periodic array can be utilized as optical waveguides, enabling nano-scale beam manipulation.

Watches baby weight
New York, NY
This is a very interesting piece. It's a baby scale from a doctor's office that is in wonderful condition. There is some minor paint chipping, but nothing that detracts from its appeal. There are a few paint chips also on the base piece, but again still in great shape for a item of this type and age. There is a sticker on the scale that says Detect Olette. Underneath is says Watches Baby's Weight and is marked New York, N.Y.

Wasn't going to post this but I vowed to post all my shots that I enter into my weekly challenge. It was a real struggle this week and this was all I got from a few ideas, so here it is.
I altered the sizes of these images to the same scale to show the differences in processing methods. The original (left) is pretty much as the camera saw it, with just slight sharpening due to stacking and wavelets in Registax. No color balance applied. The odd cast is due to the FL-D filter, which enhances the contrast of surface features. The redo (right) is a natural color balance, as well as sharpening due to extreme processing by resampling (enlarging) the original AVI file frames and picking 5 different alignment points, then recombining and resampling back to original size. The artifacts visible along the limb (especially on the right side) are due to the final resizing to match image scales and slight overprocessing. The major benefit is not only sharpening, but also bringing out the atmospheric details such as the clouds, polar hood and the dust storms.
MOUSEOVER: Alignment points.
If you stare at a point midway between these images and let your eyes relax, you may see a very interesting 3D coloration effect.

I took a photo of a small soccer ball toy in the water. It looks strange because the ball itself is much smaller than a regular soccer ball, thus it appears as though the waves are large

Artists Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen were known for making giant scale interpretations of otherwise mundane, everyday objects. This work, titled "Scale X," is a 19 ft. 4-in. tall version of a vintage circular typewriter eraser. The identification plaque is missing.
Typewriter erasers traditionally featured a rubber wheel around a hub, topped with a brush mohawk to wipe away eraser crumbs. Oldenburg had the idea of sculpting a typewriter eraser in 1975, but it wasn't until 1999 that he fabricated one from fiberglass and painted stainless steel. It's in the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. There's an identical "Scale X" in Seattle, and this one on the pedestrian promenade above Aria Place.
From a different POV The model of the original design for the Metropolitan cathedral which was abandoned with only the crypt finished. At the Museum of Liverpool

This H0 modula layout is a combination of "Oosterbeek Hoog" made by Team Mitropa and "Rhenen" made by Gert Arkema.
My attention was drawn by an Indian Minah dive bombing something just behind the retaining wall along the back of the house: turns out it was this little fella.
For comparison with adjoining photograph this taken with Olympus Macro 60mm at close focus and then copying an area of about 1/12 full frame.
I have now replaced original with an almost identical shot of same area taken with camera on a tripod, the original was hand held and was certainly not as sharp.
