If you've been in lava you know how uneven, rough and sharp it is. Can;t imagine the walk or bringing wagons & stock through it.
I'm still watching a neighbors crab apple tree for waxwings, but a flock of Sharp Tail Grouse are still doing their best to eat all the berries before the trees are found by the waxwings.
The sharp-tailed grouse (Tympanuchus phasianellus) is famed for its elaborate courtship display, which is imitated by Native Americans during their traditional dances. The short tail has elongated central feathers, giving the tail a pointed or ‘sharp’ appearance.
This is an image of an iris in my garden, taken in May. We don’t have many irises but last year we bought some bulbs of this type and planted them in a pot. They’re very pretty.
I've taken the photo from above with a very shallow depth of focus on the fall petal to render it as an abstract mainly about colour and curves.
This is one for the Wednesday Macro group. One of the nice things about the genre is you get to play with familiar sights in more puzzling and intriguing ways. I love macros that others do where I have to guess what they are…
The usual culprits were used in the processing (Capture One then Affinity with Nik Color Efex, the latter for vignettes, selective local contrast and tonal management. Topaz AI DeNoise played a part and that tends to be the main tool I use for reducing grain after sharpening).
I seem to have taken a lot of flowers this year. I’ll have to process some and share them when I have a moment.
I hope you are having a good summer!
Thanks for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Mittwochsmakro :)

Huron Milling Company's 0-4-0F, a fireless cooker engine, sits quaintly and quietly just outside the Harbor Beach DOW AgroSciences plant and Sensient Flavors who now owns the engine. Built in 1947 by the H.K. Porter Company, the locomotive served the Huron Milling Company from the time it was built all the way up until 1995. Sensient's logo on the blue and white paint looks pretty sharp, especially propped up against Lake Huron in the background.

I don't really care for this shot anymore. Sure the knife and dof is cool and all but I would have done alot differently today. Strangely it made explore some time back...
Blue route ran every 15 minutes to Nottingham station, which was great except for the fact the service provision on this route promptly ended as soon as we got to the station and meant we had to walk up and catch a 34C in order to get back to the university. There went £3 I won’t get back.
A ride on YIB 827 meant we sampled all the ALX400 types with different window variations on offer... it wasn’t intentional but we ended up catching a flat gasket, a flat bonded and a recessed gasket. They were all stinking hot upstairs having had hundreds of sweaty bums on their bench seats over the course of the day.

A male great white shark makes a sharp right turn just before he reaches my camera.
A few of the sharks at Guadalupe were coming very close to the camera on my last trip in September. A couple of individuals seemed more curious than normal, but none of them ever attempted to grab the camera, fortunately.
