Skeletons!

reverse macro photography. For everyone who doesn't know what this is, it's basically a technique where you mount your lense reversely onto your camera and go from a basic kit lens to a ultra macro lens. You loose AF capabilities but you get great pictures. It just takes a while to figure everything out.

Im Wildgarten in Furth im Wald gibt es nicht nur kuriose Gebäude, sondern auch ein Drachenskelett. Dieses stammt vom alten Drachen des Further Drachenstichs. Einer Freilichtaufführung das jeden Sommer in Furth in Wald aufgeführt wird.Während der alte Drache noch sehr mechanisch war, ist der neue ein echter riesiger Roboter und somit eher ein technisches Wunderwerk.
In the wild garden in Furth im Wald, there is not only a curious building, but also a dragon skeleton. This is from the ancient Dragon of the Further Dragon Sting. A freestyle performance, which is presented every summer in Furth in Wald. While the old dragon was still very mechanical, the new is a real giant robot and therefore a technical miracle.

Yellow-billed Spoonbill (Platalea flavipes)
A mate who is a cyclist was riding Federation Trail late yesterday and spotted 'a Spoonbill' as he rode alongside Skeleton Creek.
I popped down this morning hoping it might still be around and was pleasantly surprised when I spotted this Yellow-billed Spoonbill as I walked down to the creek from Old Geelong Road. We don't see a lot of Yellow-billed around here.

I know the whole point with the depictions of skeletons in the 17th and 18th century and so, was to remind the viewer of the the vanity of life and that everything will die and turn to dust (and bones). But still, doesn't this skeleton look like quite a friendly chap? And even if you find the motif kind of... you know... you have to admire the hands that has made this. It isn't painted in any way, the whole picture is created by piecing together different kind of stones!

There are a growing number of trees dying in paddocks around Tasmania, and this one is in a tree graveyard in the Central Highlands is just a few kilometres from Great Lake. You would not think water would be an issue.
But, there is no evidence that fire has caused these tree deaths (and in fact we'll see the regenerative qualities of fire in my photos tomorrow). Salinity is not a problem in Tasmania as far as I know, although on the mainland of Australia rising levels of salinity is killing trees.
No, the problem here appears to be simply a lack of water under the ground to feed the root systems.
I've borrowed the title here from Aussie artist Nick Cave's superbly dark album "Skeleton Tree". But the lyrics of "Anthrocene" on the same album might be more appropriate:
“The progress of science is strewn, like an ancient desert trail, with the bleached skeleton of discarded theories which once seemed to possess eternal life.”

The Skeleton Trees, Noir Flohay.
It was so misty i need to use the wide angle to get close, otherwise i didn't see them.
Strange combination there, stormy wind and low hanging clouds forming the mist.
This is an imagined skeleton of a creature in Hindu mythology. Being part elephant, crocodile, fish and more, Makara was believed to have been able to roam in multiple realms. An exhibit at UrMu (Urban Museum) in Kuala Lumpur.
The guts and glory of the South Channel Bridge are revealed as we pass underneath on our sail to the Tall Ships Festival in Montreal.
Walking back across the beach it's always good to check out the various rock pools for interest. I loved the shapes of this one mirroring the sun's rays. Skeleton Tree is by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and is a. beautiful song so is fine.
Braving the marshes after a few days of sunshine we thought we would follow the river across the moor. A Skeleton Tree stood out against the Blue sky and the Winter Moorland. A wonderful walk on a cold, crisp day and best of all, no water logged boots.
Now that the trees have mostly descended their leaves they look like skeletons on the blue...be right back at ya when springtime blooms again.
Pushing on that trigger is like pulling magic into my very soul...Darrell.
Have a safe and happy day dear Flickr friends !

Sunday morning, skeleton tree
Oh, nothing is for free
In the window, a candle
Well, maybe you can see
Fallen leaves thrown across the sky
A jittery TV
Glowing white like fire
Nothing is for free
I called out, I called out
Right across the sea
But the echo comes back in, dear
And nothing is for free
Sunday morning, skeleton tree
Pressed against the sky
I left the cave in between storms of hail to catch this quick shot, and head back around Witches Point to the car. I loved the foreground rocks, which felt like the skeleton of some dead creature washed up on the beach, so Skeleton , by Willard Grant Conspiracy is fine.
I like the skeletonized, fragile leaves in autumn. They reveal secrets ...
Thanks for take time and visit my stream, comment or fave, much appreciated.

I was not good enough to make skeleton leaves, but my friends was succeeded using young Yulan magnolia leaves. She only did soaked them in water .
She gave me them but next year I will try to make by myself.

While taking pictures of the falls recently on the Nedd Fechan, I came across this beautiful fallen stone, and recently fallen leaves, a sure sign Autumn is beginning. Skeleton tree is the title track off the wonderful new Nick Cave album, and is perfect.
If you celebrate Halloween... then "Happy Halloween!" I thought this not-so-spooky photo of some sagebrush skeletons in the Owyhee Mountains of eastern Oregon was appropriate for the occasion... you know... skeletons, right?. 🎃👍

It's that time of year for the obligatory Halloween skeleton photo. I'm really looking forward to Samhain this year.
2nd November 2022 sees the celebration of El Día de los Muertos which originated in Mexico.
This festival, in its embrace of death, celebrates life: skeletons dance and sing; flowers, fruit and candy decorate altars; the morbid side of death is lost under music and remembrances.
This papier mâché skeleton was made in Mexico City by the Linares family in 1992 for the St Mungo Museum of Religious Life and Art in Glasgow.
We saw the skeleton in the museum on a visit to Clare in 2010 and I'm very glad I had already got into the habit of photographing information panels as I should never have remembered everything for 10+ years!
I liked the colourful life-forms bursting out from the skeleton.
