Macro Mondays theme : Stripes

SOOC except for a bit of straightening.

 

On [October 13, 2022] the Moon was in a Waning Gibbous Phase. This is the first phase after the Full Moon occurs. [...]. The average Moon rise for this phase is between 9pm and Midnight depending on the age of the phase. The moon rises later and later each night setting after sunrise in the morning. During this phase the Moon can also be seen in the early morning daylight hours on the western horizon. Moongiant

We are really going through some different times. I can't help but wonder how we'll come out on the other side. My mother went through the depression, and we were never able to throw something away. At my grandfathers farm, if we took a building apart we had to straighten the nails out.

So, I'm wondering, we will forever be afraid to get close to someone. We will always collect toilet paper..;)

Someone's got to do it....

 

Been meaning to put this sunny photo up for a while and kept forgetting....as we have hardly seen the sun in a month, I remembered.

Straighten up towards the light

MYCONOS ISLAND GREECE

Taken by Christos Voreakos September 2009.

Price waterhouse Coopers Building in Capelle a/d IJssel, The Netherlands

While straightening some trees in the yard a felt a small thud on my back - it was a cone dropped by a Crossbill raiding the trees with a mixed group of it's kind , Later they came for a few seeds from the feeder. Taken through the dining room window

The Newfoundland subspecies, percna, are listed as endangered under both provincial and federal endangered species legislation.

 

Red Crossbill are a medium-sized finch, which uses its crossed beak to pry open conifer cones.

 

Red Crossbill are associated with conifer forests, with the highest numbers of observations occurring in the older, mature forests of western Newfoundland. The island of Newfoundland may be the only location where this rare subspecies breeds.

   

Humans are gregarious animals. Many of us are moving most of the time of thier lives in the shadow of the herd. Here, they are feeling save and secure and it is good that way. But what is protecting us at one side, is likewise restricting us as an idividual.

If I really want to develop and straighten myself it is necessary to step outside and maybe to get wet as well.

This thought can be frightening for some of us, therefore everybody can decide by her/himself how often and how far she/he is willing to walk forward and when it’s time to go back.

So try and see for yourself and find Your own balance.

 

Der Mensch ist ein Herdentier. Viele von uns bewegen sich die meiste Zeit ihres Lebens im Schatten der Herde. Hier fühlen sie sich sicher und geborgen und das ist auch gut so. Das, was mich auf der einen Seite beschützt, schränkt uns gleichzeitig jedoch als Individuum ein.

Um mich mirklich entfalten und aufrichten zu können ist es von Zeit zu Zeit erforderlich hinaus zu treten und vielleicht auch einmal nass zu werden.

Der Gedanke daran kann für einige beängstigend sein, darum entscheidet jede/jeder für sich, wie oft und wie weit sie/er sich nach vorn wagt und wann es Zeit ist zurück zu gehen.

Also probiere es einfach aus und finde Deine eigene Balance.

This gorgeous macaw was part of the macaw recovery program. He was fairly used to people but was able to fly wherever he wanted. It was wonderful to see the success of this program in action. Taken in North Pantanal, Brazil.

 

Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.

Less is more...bit of straightening and nothing else!

I don't normally do still life, but I had a fridge drawer full of fruit and the grapes were just beautiful (to look at and eat) and begging to be photographed. So naturally I decided on a still life shot.

 

Other than adding the textured background (to hide my wall), straightening and cropping, there were no colour edits to the image (it is however a composition of two exposures). Lighting provided by a combination of my trusty desk lamp and mother sunshine.

straightened version of previously posted photo...

 

corrected for the Icebox...even my husband agreed it was better straightened!

 

the point of the shot is that the photographer resembles the image she is photographing...a doppleganger? (Ott)...

I cropped and straightened this shot....a major accomplishment for me as I'm terrified of editing!

On my darkest days, when I feel inadequate, unloved, and unworthy, I remember whose daughter I am and I straighten my crown.

 

Happy Monday, all!

I am pretty sure this is a Marbled Godwit but if I am wrong I would appreciate a correction. Busy preening taken in Fort De Soto Park, Florida.

 

Many thanks for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.

20th century archeology in 'Malpais de la Rasca' in Tenerife - remnants of irrigation canals, used for irrigating the tomato plantations

 

In the mid-20th century (roughly between 1940 and 1970), the arid south of Tenerife was a major player in the export market. Despite the lack of rain, these channels were built to transport water to the coastal plains to grow tomatoes and bananas.

 

Thank you Gemini

This was one lunchtime, I always see the shot looking the other way from the Tate towards St Paul's but this opportunity was too good to miss - I had to straighten the wide angle distortion on the shot a little and ideally would have liked he Shard on the left further in.

Eventually I have succumbed to the pressure and straightened this one. I think all you people who asked me to do so were almost right, it doesn’t look too bad!

 

And for them that don't know what this is - it was taken in the Tate Modern museum a few years ago now, it is inside the Turbine Hall and is a photo of my dad sitting beneath The Weather Project. No photoshop here, except of course, the straightening of the horizon.
