Before you scroll away from this feisty beauty, be assured that this is no ordinary cat. This is a Scottish Wildcat (aka the Highland Tiger!) and this shot was taken mid hiss. This breed of cat is absolutely feral and doesnt tolerate patting, stroking or general nearness to him. He's called McTavish and whilst I respectfully keep my distance, I admire him from afar...

I thought of my husband when I photographed this flower. He is a violin maker. This flower has its own beautiful scrolls. They remind me of the scrolls of his violins. Well, art imitates life all of the time. I like all types of art because art makes me feel and feeling is an essential part of being alive. A good day, afternoon, evening or night to all!
Best viewed in lightbox and on full screen (F11), of course!
The gear! Shh!!! Mum's the word!
Take care and many thanks for calling,

Colour re-edit of a shot from March 2017 simply because I have no new work to share. Hope you like it!

Doom scrolling perhaps - which is so much easier to do when almost everything going on is doom-worthy. Honestly... what a world we are in! January has been a long year so far!
Take care amidst the insanity. Share joy. Spread love and compassion. Oppose tyranny.

Happy Holiday, my Friends !
The photo is part of my photographic exhibition featuring 21 laminated panels. The images of the exhibit represent the symbols of Jewish festivals throughout the year.
The exhibition has been shown in various places.

Sukkoth (Hebrew: סוכות or סֻכּוֹת ), Feast of Booths, Feast of Tabernacles, is a biblical Jewish holiday celebrated on the 15th day of the month of Tishri.
The holiday lasts seven days in Israel and eight in the diaspora. The first day is a Shabbat-like holiday, when work is forbidden, followed by intermediate days called Chol Hamoed.
The Hebrew word sukkōth is the plural of sukkah, "booth" or "tabernacle", which is a walled structure, covered with leaves of palm and willow. The sukkah is intended as a reminiscence of the type of fragile dwellings in which, according to the Torah, the Israelites dwelt during their 40 years of travel in the desert, after the Exodus from slavery in Egypt.
Throughout the holiday, meals are eaten inside the sukkah and many people sleep there as well. A sukkah is also for the temporary dwelling in which agricultural workers would live during harvesting.
The festival is closed with another Shabbat-like holiday called Simchat Torah, The Joy of the Torah, that takes place in synagogue.This is the only time of year on which the Torah scrolls are taken out of the Ark. Then, when the Ark is opened, the worshippers leave their seats to dance and sing with the Torah scrolls in a joyous celebration that can last for several hours.

Scrolled. Or screwed. Almost. Why? Because I almost managed to break my violin, the macro lens and the camera while taking this shot. What had happened? Well, in order to get the best shooting distance without piling box upon box and then my small table top tripod on top of it all, I mounted my camera on my small traveller tripod, camera pointing lens down to my violin's neck and scroll. So far, so good. I should mention, however, that, while the camera was mounted tightly and safely on the tripod, I had placed my violin on several cardboard boxes to get the right distance to the camera and the background. You know what was happening next, don't you? So I moved the violin, because the scroll wasn't quite centered, then thought "Why not move the tripod instead?," and... bang. Because the boxes moved as well. Next thing I know is that I still tried to catch the camera, but too late, the camera on tripod fell right onto my violin's neck. I heard a nasty sound. And thought "That's it." After a short moment of shock I thought, "OK, so you had a filter and the lens hood (which was still on the lens, but at a rather weird angle) attached, so the lens and camera are probably OK." They were. Phew. Then I took an anxious look at my violin. Still OK as well. Another phew. As it is, the lens hood (which is retractable, it's rather cool) had taken most of the impact, and all that actually happened was that the E-string broke. Huge phew. And the moral of this story? Don't place your stuff on cardboard boxes. Oh, and I forgot: this was lit from below and the side (right).
Needless to say I decided to stop taking more captures afterwards. It was late again anyway. Processed, as usual, in Luminar (develop filter, Accent-Al filter, detail enhancer, microstructure). Then on to Nik's Silver Efex for the black and white conversion. I started off with a preset this time, the "full spectrum inverted" (my translation, it's preset no. 018) which I still tweaked a little, then back to LR for finishing touches (colour preset "high contrast and details", yes, it works for b&w images as well 😉).
A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone!
Zur Schnecke gemacht
Fast. Fast wären nämlich meine Geige und mein Makroobjetiv bei dieser Aktion zu Bruch gegangen. Was war passiert? Um die nötige Distanz zum Motiv, der Schnecke meiner Geige, zu bekommen, hatte ich dieses Mal vernünftigerweise die Kamera gleich kopfüber am (nicht ausgefahrenen) kleinen Manfrotto Elements befestigt, anstatt wie sonst üblich einen Karton auf den anderen zu stapeln und zum Schluss das kleine Tischstativ obendrauf zu stellen. So weit, so gut, so sicher. Dafür kamen besagte Kartons aber als Unterlage für die Geige zum Einsatz, um genug Abstand zum Hintergrund zu haben und noch ein Stückchen näher an die Kamera zu kommen (das Makro hat 19 cm Mindestabstand). Es kam, wie es kommen musste, ich arrangierte die Schnecke noch ein wenig mittiger, verrückte dann das Stativ noch ein bisschen - und die Kartons verrückten sich dann wie von Zauberhand selbst, was das Stativ zum Umkippen brachte. Natürlich direkt auf den Hals meiner Geige. Krack. Ich dachte schon "Das war's", aber nach einer kurzen Schrecksekunde konnte ich feststellen, dass die (aus- und einfahrbare) Gegenlichtblende den Sturz abgefedert hatte. Uff. Nicht mal der Filter hatte was abbekommen. Die Geige auch nicht. Lediglich die E-Saite war gerissen. Glück gehabt. Danach habe ich die Kamera dann aber abgebaut und die Geige wieder sicher verstaut, Lust auf weitere Kopfüber-Makros hatte ich nicht mehr. Aber zum Glück war ein brauchbares Foto im Kasten, das ich dann in Luminar (vor-)entwickelt habe (regulärer Entwickeln-Filter, Accent-Al-Filter, Details und Microstruktur) und in Niks Silver Efex in SW umgewandelt habe. Hier habe ich als Startpunkt ausnahmsweise mal eine der Voreinstellungen (018, "vollständiges Spektrum invertiert") genommen und dann noch ein bisschen angepasst. In LR habe ich dann noch die Voreinstellung "Farbe - Hoher Kontrast / Details (ja, funktioniert auch bei SW-Bildern 😉) für mehr "Knackigkeit" verwendet. Ach ja, beleuchtet hatte ich das Ganze von rechts und von unten.
Ich wünsche Euch eine schöne Woche, liebe Flickr-Freunde!

Challenge this week is curves. I went to my favorite instrument for inspiration. This is a closeup of the scroll of my cello.
