This is a sheet of distressed copper deck-liner from the hardware store.
It was shot with a 60mm Nikkor macro lens, long exposures at f/57 and processed variously in Lightroom. I am astounded by the range of looks I can develop from just one of these camera raw images in Lightroom. I just sat there making Virtual Copies and experimenting with the controls. I had trouble choosing which ones to upload.

This image comes from a series taken at Wakehurst Place, West Sussex - it's a National Trust property with botanical gardens, manor house, huge grounds including forests and lakes, and is also home to the millennium seed bank project.
Edd, Haydee and I were lucky enough that they were holding a festival all weekend, and that festival included a Birds of Prey display. This is the Falconer and owner of these amazing birds. I don't like animals being held captive but he lets his out to hunt and they apparently always come back. This Peregrine was being particularly playful with the owner, it gave me a really good impression of how well his birds are looked after. I believe he works for a sanctuary that he was collecting for, so fair play to him!
An immature / non breeding Hooded Merganser scratching and yawning at the same time while relaxing in Tucson, Arizona in the Sonoran Desert. Click to enlarge. These birds winter across the southern USA but not so much in the west. They nest in northern USA and Canada so will probably be leaving here soon. More Mergansers in PhotoStream and/or Birds album.
There's nice green grass to eat underneath the snow.
My resident equine expert says this is a bay-colored Appaloosa with a white blanket.

Some years ago on the Berlin urban railway... from the airport to the central railway station.
Original shot taken with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ1 5 Mp compact camera (with troubles), light post processing.
Continuing along the theme of portraiture of my Mental Health project, I took a simple portrait of a girl and scratched out her face and some of her hair using sandpaper. This simple experiment turned very meaningful, and I believe that the final outcome is the the style I like and I may continue exploring this.
Looking for something to shoot while inside my friends' cat enclosure. Shot wide open with my Tamron 90mm f2.5 Macro (52BB).
If it itches!
Texture credit: I only have a number if anyone knows the owner please let me know...I have flipped it...

A Beistle jointed scratch cat. This guy is smaller than some Halloween kitties, so I put him on my scanner, then gave him a bright orange background. Meow!
Macro detail of studio glass bowl by British artist Jane Charles. 'Reflective Form' from her first solo exhibition in 1991.
I will be posting a full shot of the bowl soon. In the meanwhile I wonder what you see in this image? The full vew of the bowl can now be seen here.

Sophie finally scratches the post, but she hasn't fully kicked her furniture scratching habit.
Collected at Okmulgee Lake Spillway in Oklahoma. It seems to be a scratch circle? The rings could have been formed over time by the organism swaying in a current. Very interesting. Found a paper on this here: earthscience.ucr.edu/docs/Soren_scratch_2002.pdf
The object is small, around 3.8 cm at its widest point. It is donut-like in shape with a central indentation and rounded outer ridge lined with concentric circles. There is a raised bump in the center of the indentation. The black areas are somewhat glossy while the places where the black layer has peeled off to reveal browns and yellows is matte. I didn't notice anything of interest on the bottom.

Another experimental film photograph onto which I have scratched a patter.
