Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a pink or purple day at Color my World Daily and at Smile on Saturday the theme is: spinning around.
Capturing the movement or a motion blur is always tricky for me. I tried do find something round (or almost) and spinning… I had several ideas but then it hit me (another alcohol induced vision but also it was Earth Day yesterday) : Earth ! Earth is round (or almost) and it is spinning around constantly… And then I had another vision, this one was induced by my work as a geographer, why not using one of my globes ? Yes, I collect (among many, many others things) globes, it is a geographer hoarder thing… The terrestrial globe in this picture, is one of my smallest one and has no monetary value. It is a cheap decorative terrestrial globe but it turns very well which is great for this picture. And then imagine flying very slowly around a spinning terrestrial globe in a red rocket. Watching the Earth from above and wondering if the pandemic is over yet or no ? Is it safe to land or should we wait some more before getting out of our tiny red rocket ? I think I will wait few more turns …at least until there is no more curfew !
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! See you later my friends and have an amazing day !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !!

Taken just across the road from my house again. Decided to leave the one with me stood on the top of it out this time. Probably the best conditions for star trails I've had with the 6D so far, and I bought a hot water bottle so no frost on the lens!

"Spinning Around"
I guess that I am too late for this to be added into the group as it is 8:47 pm my time and 2:47 pm Brussels time. At least I tried to come up with an idea.
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
For this week's Macro Mondays challenge "Motion" I went with a dollar as my subject.
To capture this shot I used two LED lights one on the right and one on the left side. Both had a yellow filter on them. I also used a flash set to the following. Using the multi flash method 1/16 sec, 4 flashes, at 1hz. I then spun the coin.
The camera settings are f16, shutter 3.2 sec at ISO 100.
I have 3 other photos that I thought about using which are in the Macro_Test album if you want to take a look. Test 2 and 3 were taken using this same method where test one the flash was hand held and I fired it once manually.
If you fav this photo please leave a comment as to why you like it, thanks in advance.

I was checking out at Walgreens yesterday and saw these little "Fidget Spinners". Spinning them is supposed to be relaxing (or something like that).
