Speckled bush cricket (a young larva) after a walk through the flower of a evening primrose. Then she cleaned the feelers of the pollen. These are pulled several times with the help of the forefoot through the "mouth".

Another try with GIMP. This time there is something more than a little post-processing: so this place exists only in my mind! There is no lake over that hill! :D In this case I think it's just a image processing and no more photography.

Foveon sensor (1-1-1).....I adore the particular chromatic and edge rendition of this "no Bayer" technology. And I hope SIGMA will provide with new cameras with it.
My camera's sensor doesn't seem to be able to achieve this colour. I can see the spiderwort flowers from my window, so I used photo editing software to restore the colour to what it ought to be, the colour attained by the chip was more like blue.
For some time I walked along the deserted port looking for "Life" when, to my amazement, I saw a small bar made of wood with Mexican decorations and a fish stall. There were some "Mojitos" on the bar, as if they had just been made, but what intrigued me was the absence of people in the place, and it occurred to me that something scared the people who were here and they had to flee.
I was tempted to grab one of those delicious looking "Mojitos" and drink it, as the many days I spent sailing the seas of SL left me with almost no food and drink, but I didn't. I didn't know how long they had been there, what they were made of, or what had happened that they were left on the counter.
The fish in the stall were fresh, as if they had just been caught and put up for sale, but on my approach to the harbor I didn't see any fishing boats, not even when I arrived at the harbor. I thought about picking some fish and leaving some Lindens as payment, but I thought the same way I thought about the "Mojitos" and I didn't after all. There was still a lot of sea to sail home and I could always catch some fish on the boat.
The wind was blowing from the West, and it brought me the smell of freshly cooked food, and due to my gastronomic experience of tasting traditional dishes in the ports where I stopped, my nose "told me" that it was Asian food. Almost at the bottom of the harbor I had seen a mini Snack-Bar with illuminated signs. The smell coming from that place activated my HUNGER sensors, my belly was asking for food... so... I decided to walk towards the Snack-Bar to try to eat something... when... I heard a meow not very far from the place where I was and as I approached the meow became more intense... there was no doubt that there... was life in that place.
To be continued...
Gawdy Sensor Ship
Plenty of sensors on this one including those ostentatious radars, a spinny round thing and a non-spinny round thing. All a little overblown?

I took this shot of a glorious sunset over Hayling Island's West Beach recently using a friend's new One Plus 8 Pro smartphone. I was very impressed with the super wide angle lens, as well as the colour reproduction of the sensor.
My new second-hand Sony Alpha 7RIV with my 1970-1980 Canon FE vintage lens :) But I have to deny that the possibility to zoom in and out during MF shots is faster at 7RII - or I didn't find a better option yet :D - maybe, it was more intended to use MF with 7RII than with 7RIV. But it's one reason more to get my 7RII's sensor changed ;)

WARNING: Don't try this at home!!!
Note: No real harm was done and the sensor and camera survived the (photoshop) experiment without any scratch or (water)damage 😉 Thanks for your concerns...
Thank you very much for your time, faves and comments. It's much appreciated.
Happy Macro Mondays
I took this about a week ago.
It had started to snow and this fox showed up.
It was a long shot by my standards.
But, I like what I was seeing.
I reset the camera to use the crop sensor and took this shot.
I have started using the crop sensor and am pretty impressed with the results.
I hadn't really tried it before this.
This was a hand hold, no, tripod.

An airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) system is an airborne radar early warning system designed to detect aircraft, ships, vehicles, missiles and other incoming projectiles at long ranges, as well as performing command and control of the battlespace in aerial engagements by informing and directing friendly fighter and attack aircraft. AEW&C units are also used to carry out aerial surveillance over ground and maritime targets, and frequently perform battle management command and control (BMC2). When used at altitude, the radar system on AEW&C aircraft allows the operators to detect, track and prioritize targets and identify friendly aircraft from hostile ones in real-time and from much farther away than ground-based radars.[1] Like ground-based radars, AEW&C systems can be detected and targeted by opposing forces, but due to aircraft mobility and extended sensor range, they are much less vulnerable to counter-attacks than ground systems.[2]
AEW&C aircraft are used for both defensive and offensive air operations, and serve air forces in the same role as what the combat information center is to naval warships, in addition to being a highly mobile and powerful radar platform. So useful and advantageous is it to have such aircraft operating at a high altitude, that some navies also operate AEW&C aircraft for their warships at sea, either coastal- or carrier-based and on both fixed-wing and rotary-wing platforms. In the case of the United States Navy, the Northrop Grumman E-2 Hawkeye AEW&C aircraft is assigned to its supercarriers to protect them and augment their onboard command information centers (CICs). The designation "airborne early warning" (AEW) was used for earlier similar aircraft used in the less-demanding radar picket role,[3] such as the Fairey Gannet AEW.3 and Lockheed EC-121 Warning Star, and continues to be used by the RAF for its Sentry AEW1, while AEW&C (airborne early warning and control) emphasizes the command and control capabilities that may not be present on smaller or simpler radar picket aircraft. AWACS (Airborne Warning and Control System) is the name of the specific system installed in the American Boeing E-3 Sentry and Japanese Boeing E-767 AEW&C airframes, but is often used as a general synonym for AEW&C.[4][5]
General characteristics
Wellington Ic "Air Controlled Interception" showing rotating radar antenna
Modern AEW&C systems can detect aircraft from up to 400 km (220 nmi) away, well out of range of most surface-to-air missiles (SAM). One AEW&C aircraft flying at 9,000 m (30,000 ft) can cover an area of 312,000 km2 (120,000 sq mi). Three such aircraft in overlapping orbits can cover the whole of Central Europe.[6] AEW&C system indicates close and far proximity range on threats and targets, help extend the range of their sensors, and make offensive aircraft harder to track by avoiding the need for them to keep their own radar active, which the enemy can detect. Systems also communicate with friendly aircraft, vectoring fighters towards hostile aircraft or any unidentified flying object (UFO).

From an abandoned water tank.
Taken with Canon FD 50mm F3.5 Macro / Full Frame Sensor / Unedited (Straight from camera).
Playing with my sony compact one inch sensor for landscape while waiting to hands on the new canon 6D Mark II.
Shot with Single J-peg and process by P.S.
Sony RX100M3 Dynamic Range is very respectable profound like my Sony A6000. However, the half inch sensor could not really sustain noise level when engaging for longer exposure and it may let down on this aspect otherwise no big complaints and is super compact and handy for photographer use to carry load of equipment gears.
The first serious run using the new one shot colour cooled astro cam with a built in guide sensor, ZWO 2600 MC Duo. Mounted to a Takahashi FSQ106N. To use this I had to use my old Celestron CGEM2, my first EQ mount. Easy to use, but heavy and doesn't guide that well, Still, it was fine for this. Bendelby, South Australia. Taken with a Sigma 28mm lens, Nikon Z9
DJI Global worked with Hasselblad to develop the camera of the Mavic 2 pro drone to include a 20 megapixel sensor. This means we can print a shot like this really big. I think a 5 foot print of this junkyard in western Kansas would look pretty cool. #photography

I used a purchased pinhole lens cap that I bought for the same theme a few years ago.
Yes, I know... my sensor needs cleaning - you should have seen it before I cleaned things up on LIghtroom.

Thank you in advance for your views, comments, and faves. They are much appreciated!
The dogs are dueling over the fence, causing the motion sensor lights to come on. Mooky and Kona need to chill. 100 Days of Darkness 8/100.
If your going to attempt long exposure photography, you must make sure your sensor is clean, otherwise it will show every little speck of dust or dirt.
The image above had so many sensor spots I simply gave up, I had to crop the sky as that area had a lot and even using Lightrooms spot removal didn’t really help matters. It could have been quite a nice photo too. I’m no expert but I think different apertures show up sensor spots differently, maybe somebody could enlighten me in comments. So if you are going to attempt long exposure photography, especially if the scene is quite minimal as it is in this photo, check your sensor and if needed give it a good clean, it’s better to do that than faffing about later on the computer.
Btw, the photo was taken on the Northumberland coast near Dunstanburgh castle.
When out for a walk today, instead of an X100V, I took my Olympus E-P5 from 2015. It has a 16MP Micro 4/3 sensor, which is supposedly outdated in 2023. Smaller-sensor cameras can still produce good results -- even for prints. A friend of mine has a 20x30 print from a 12MP M43 on his wall, and it looks amazing.
Of course, if someone wants to gift me with a full-frame camera, I am open to the idea. My birthday is in December.
We were koming back from a wonderful day out in the kar...and I was trying differents settings on the kamera and shooting to a "there's no words to describe it" sunset... and well .. when i get home... and downloaded the piks.. he or she.. this presence was there.. I never saw it when I took the pik...
