"Gaslighting" is a technique used by NARCISSISTS to make their victims doubt their own memories, their perceptions about interactions and events and conversations, etc.
Narcissists can even get their victims to doubt their own sanity. Some people can start doubting themselves, and thus become disempowered through not being able to trust their own memories and perceptions.
On Youtube there is a lot of info about all the tricks and manipulations used by Narcissists. Links below to two of the best channels on the subject, Dr Ramani:

Feliz Año Nuevo
Si, ha sido un año más, un año que como siempre nos deseábamos que fuese mejor que el anterior, al final ha sido un año de locos, hemos aprendido lo frágiles que somos ante cualquier incidencia, quizás a ser mejores personas a valorar más lo que tenemos y un sin fin de emociones, pero ahí está el tiempo, algo que no podemos tocar ni manipular, momentos efímeros que nos llevan a circunstancias a veces difíciles de controlar,,,,,.tic tac,,,tic tac,,
Preguntarse por el tiempo es no encontrar respuesta alguna, es tan misterioso y abstracto que colapsamos toda neurona de nuestro cerebro, mientras unos los vemos como un transcurso de experiencias otros lo ven como otra dimensión,
El tiempo es tan relativo que cambia constantemente según en el lugar y momento que te encuentres, el estado de ánimo dice mucho ya que puede un momento pasar a ser eterno y en otro pasar en un segundo,
Y ahora quizás por la pandemia de estos años nos damos cuenta que el tiempo es más importante, que el tiempo nos quita y nos da y que a veces nos falta y otras nos sobra,
Conclusión: Seguir en el tiempo.

De mi cuaderno de reflexiones
Happy New Year
Yes, it has been one more year, a year that as we always wished it was better than the previous one, in the end it has been a crazy year, we have learned how fragile we are in the face of any incident, perhaps to be better people to value what is more. that we have and endless emotions, but there is time, something that we cannot control, touch or manipulate, fleeting moments that lead us to circumstances that are sometimes difficult to control ,,,, tic tac ,,, tic tac ,,
Wondering about time is not finding any answer, it is so mysterious and abstract that we collapse every neuron in our brain, while some see it as a course of experiences, others see it as another dimension,
Time is so relative that it changes constantly depending on where and when you are, the mood says a lot since one moment can become eternal and another can happen in a second,
And now perhaps due to the pandemic of this year we realize that time is more important, that time takes us away and gives us and that sometimes we lack and others we have excess,
Conclusion: Follow in time.

From my notebook of reflections
I get to observe a number of birds while they are foraging and either I've been asleep or have never seen a Little Blue Heron employ the old toe tapping technique of the Snowy Egret! This guy was doing just that and the minute the poor hapless fish made a move to escape the toe it ended up in the beak!!! Photo was taken on Horsepen Bayou!!

This weeks Snap Happy theme of 'Fruit' was chosen by Gaz.
Given I got stung by a bee while trying to make this image, I thought I should post it even though I am not totally convinced by it.
I had the idea of doing the PEP Ventosa technique on the fruit bowl where you walk around it and take images in the round as a set of multiple exposures. Hence I was in the backyard in bare feet, walking around the fruit bowl which was propped up on a cardboard box with velvet draped around it. Pretty stupid when I am allergic to bees and generally swell up like an elephant. We got the sting out without the sac breaking I think so I got away with a localised swelling that hasn't spread.
Anyway, the multiple exposures didn't work so I used just one image and had fun playing with it.

Local Muong girls harvesting tea leaves, Long Coc, Vietnam
Tea production is a cornerstone of Vietnam’s economy, with the country ranking as the 7th largest tea producer globally, and supporting the livelihoods of over 400,000 families, particularly in rural and mountainous areas. Workers rise with the sun to handpick around 15 kilograms of tea leaves each morning, ensuring freshness and quality. Beyond its economic impact, traditional tea cultivation and processing techniques, passed down through generations, reflect Vietnam’s rich cultural heritage and the dedication of its people.
I continue to have fun temporarily with pieces from the PaB without my stock pieces. Of them little can be done but when there's only a plastic Cup... The desire to build immediately increased. Can the pressure is gone and the duty to do something unimaginable without giving the abyss pieces. Oh well - soon I finish moving and will be content better :-)

CHUVAS E RAIOS...
- Sempre tivemos o desejo de conseguir capturar em imagens um raio. Mas não é fácil e não possuímos o saber de técnicas mais amplas que permitam esta proeza com uma captura fantástica, inclusive não procuramos aprender até mesmo por não possuirmos equipamentos que nos permitiriam realizar uma captura mais profissional. No entanto, nada disto nos impede de efetuar algumas tentativas. E este dia foi propício e conseguimos 3 momentos (imagens); enfim, eis nosso singelo trabalho e tentativas neste sentido.
RAIN AND LIGHTNING...
- We always had the desire to be able to capture lightning in images. But it's not easy and we don't have the knowledge of broader techniques that allow this feat with a fantastic capture, we don't even try to learn even because we don't have equipment that would allow us to make a more professional capture. However, none of this prevents us from making some attempts. And this day was favorable and we got 3 moments (images); finally, here is our simple work and attempts in this direction.
After some nights spent to learn and practice new imaging techniques, I propose a version of my first attempt to Andromeda Galaxy, less harsh, more realistic and detailed and (I hope) nicer to see.

Panoramic photography is a technique of photography, using specialized equipment or software, that captures images with horizontally elongated fields of view. It is sometimes known as wide format photography. The term has also been applied to a photograph that is cropped to a relatively wide aspect ratio, like the familiar letterbox format in wide-screen video.
While there is no formal division between "wide-angle" and "panoramic" photography, "wide-angle" normally refers to a type of lens, but using this lens type does not necessarily make an image a panorama. An image made with an ultra wide-angle fisheye lens covering the normal film frame of 1:1.33 is not automatically considered to be a panorama. An image showing a field of view approximating, or greater than, that of the human eye – about 160° by 75° – may be termed panoramic. This generally means it has an aspect ratio of 2:1 or larger, the image being at least twice as wide as it is high. The resulting images take the form of a wide strip. Some panoramic images have aspect ratios of 4:1 and sometimes 10:1, covering fields of view of up to 360 degrees. Both the aspect ratio and coverage of field are important factors in defining a true panoramic image.
Technique offer us new possiblities for experimenting. I believe curiosity is present in all human beings. An internal force moves skaters to experiment things that the rest of us, we can not dream of .In my case I enjoied exploring what could result from the use of different edition programs together, "eh voilà" the outcome!
Almost three years ago we rented a cottage for a week in Norfolk. This was one of those showery April days when we decided to go out for a drive and head for the patches of blue sky to try and avoid the showers. Where the landscape is flat and the skies are huge it's a technique that works, even though we had no idea where we would end up. At least, we saw parts of Norfolk that we hadn't previously visited.

We have a special challenge at We’re Here! today: “It's a Saturday ... so today, let's spend a few minutes (or hours) showing off one of your favorite special photographic techniques. And, in your photo's description, explain what you did to get the intended (?!) result.”
Our images are then to be foisted upon our unsuspecting host What’s Your Technique?
I love creating images made out of several blended photographs. The elements come from my archives, recent or old, and are usually from several separate locations and different times. It’s great fun to enter these in contests when they fit the theme – and the contest themes themselves often serve as the inspiration for the image created. I don’t often “win” the contests, but that is hardly the point. Just as with the “We’re Here” themes, it is the challenge and creative work that causes me to spend my precious hours doing this. I have been wanting to create a new texture for a while now. These take me more time than seems reasonable – so today’s the day!
I combined a snap of my daughter’s kitchen wall in afternoon sunlight and a sandstone wall at a Napa winery, ran the result through Manga 5 Art Studio for some spray painting, and tortured that in “Paint Shop Pro” with blurring, layering, contrast adjustments, and a software-generated “straw texture”, until I couldn’t possibly remember how to do it again. Then I blended several different layers of it in different opacities and saturations with my subject – taken at the Idaho Springs Heritage Museum. The originals of my new texture and the owl shot are in the comment box below. I altered the dates to the past so they will “fall out” of my current photostream.
And, voilà! I have to fess up to falling into the “a few hours” category of Hereio today! I don’t have a contest in mind, but Spotlight Your Best has a “Bird Life” theme this month, so I will put it there.
A facade technique for corners. The important part is this, which may be hard to source. The offset is a half-plate on each side of the dark bley block. I would love to see a solution that is solid and only uses in-production parts.
Elastic Band Trick
Other People have done this before, some may have better techniques than this but this is the one I use. Feel free anyone to use this and I'm always open to questions and suggestions etc. Thanks for reading and enjoy!
Elastic Band Trick
The detailed picture step guide to get positioning of the arms on Lego Figures using one small elastic band.
I used small medical scissors because they were pointed and curved to get into the arm hole and the loop of the band to pull it out the other arm hole. You can use pretty much anything with those qualities. (Curved and pointed)

the last few month I worked on a series of landscapes with glamourise, intense colors. To achieve that special look, I used an old darkroom technique - no Photoshop - filter - monkey business.

Paper Crafting Technique of Lion Heads
Lion head paper crafting has a long history in Hong Kong. The birthday celebrations held for deities in villages are usually accompanied by dancing lions or other auspicious animals. They worshipped at shrines and temples to report to the deities, and hence lion head paper crafting emerged. The lion head costume comes in Foshan 佛山裝, Heshan 鶴山裝 and “Fo-He” 佛鶴裝 styles. Some craftmen depict the lion heads in different colours to resemble historical figures from the Three Kingdoms such as Liu Bei 劉備 (yellow face with multicoloured patterns and a white beard), Guan Yu 關羽 (red face with a black beard), Zhang Fei 張飛 (black-and-white face, green nose with a black beard), Zhao Yun 起趙雲 (green face with a black beard), Huang Zhong 黃忠 (with yellow as the main tone). Lion head paper crafting comprises four processes, namely crafting the frame, mounting the paper, colouring and decorating 紮作，撲紙，寫色，裝上裝飾配件。
I had heard about a technique quite a while ago and I have been meaning to try it one day, it consists of taking an object, photographing it multiple times all around it and then blending the layers in varying opacity in photoshop.
This is my first attempt - 12 photos taken around this nice little pot of lavender, blended in PS. I've then added some textures to finish the look. The left-hand image is my base image or starting point as a comparison.
The technique can be used on outdoor objects as well like trees, statues, fountains, buildings etc, etc...

Auch ich bin Verehrer des Surrealismus und verwende neben hintergründiger Bildthemen besonders gern aleatorische Techniken bei der Bildherstellung, die vom Zufall abhängen.
Max Ernst hat Möglichkeiten eröffnet, die mich inspirieren. Dazu gehört die Decalcomanie.
I too am a worshiper of surrealism and, in addition to subtle pictorial themes, particularly like to use aleatory techniques in image production, which depend on chance.
Max Ernst has opened up possibilities that inspire me. This includes decalcomania.
Wow, time sure flies when you are having fun!
We just bid farewell to our second group of Rifugios in the Dolomites participants. What a week of amazing views, dramatic skies, big laughs, and incredible food! We worked on an array of photographic techniques including focus stacking and exposure blending. This is an image we worked together during one of our post-processing sessions.
Results are in from the pole as to where we will host my next Astrophotography Workshop in September!
The winner is... Bethells Beach!
Want to learn how to shoot Astrophotography and how to edit your images? Come along to my next 2 day workshop with a night out under the stars and an afternoon in the classroom. This will be my last workshop for quite a while!
We will cover:
• Master the single shot, settings etc
• How to shoot and stitch Panoramas – and fix stitching errors!
• Image stacking and the science behind it
• Basic to advanced editing techniques
• Plus much much more!
Check out my events section on my Facebook for more details or PM me. We have 8/10 spots left.
I used many of the processing techniques covered in my Tonality Control Video. It's available here: www.zschnepf.com
Another of my favorites from my epic first trip to the Palouse with my good friend Kevin McNeal. P.S. This looks fantastic as a large print. I think I'll frame it for my show this weekend.

The distinctive hunting technique of pied kingfishers has earned the species a few records. Not only are they the largest hovering bird, but they are also the only kingfishers with the ability to perform a figure of eight wing stroke.
They hunt by hovering 50-65 feet above the water and then diving headfirst (or rather, bill-first) into the water. Pied kingfishers demonstrate spectacular speed and agility on the hunt.
The kingfisher bird’s black and white colors and hovering ability are their most distinctive qualities. You’ll often spot the pied kingfisher live in action, hovering over bodies of water.
Vary difficult to get an image as they fly past you so fast and I was standing in a boat. Amazing birds
Technique: Sometimes the subject I'm shooting gets so use to me being close that it just goes about its business as if I'm not there. All I had to do is set the camera to under expose the natural light in the background, and I shaded the subject so that the flash was the only significant light source on the mantis (to freeze motion).
Tech Specs: Canon 70D (F11, 1/125, ISO 200) + a Canon EF-S 60mm macro lens with 37mm of extension + a diffused MT-24EX (flash head "A" set as the key and "B" as the fill, with the key on a Kaiser flash shoes). This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held.
La imaginería es una especialidad del arte de la escultura para la representación plástica de temas religiosos, por lo común realista y con finalidad devocional, litúrgica, procesional o catequética. Se vincula a la religión católica debido a su carácter icónico, por lo que la encontramos especialmente en países de cultura católica: España, Italia, Portugal e Iberoamérica y, en menor medida, Francia, Canadá, Países Bajos y Austria, así como también Filipinas.
La técnica más habitual es la talla en madera policromada buscando el realismo más convincente, a veces mediante vestidos y ropajes auténticos, o incluso añadiendo cabellos postizos.
La representación plástica de los misterios religiosos acompaña al Cristianismo desde sus primeros siglos, será con el arte románico y gótico, desde el siglo XII al XV, donde comience la evolución de la escultura en madera o imaginería, con fin catequético. Hasta el Renacimiento tienen mucha importancia los maestros flamencos y franceses. Sin embargo a partir del Concilio de Trento (1545-1563) la Iglesia católica, en respuesta a la Reforma luterana, decide potenciar las artes plásticas como medio de alcanzar la atención de los fieles, desarrollándose extraordinariamente la imaginería durante el periodo barroco en el área mediterránea, la península ibérica e Iberoamérica.
Recordando esta pasada Semana Santa sevillana sin procesiones en sus calles por la pandemia, visité algunas hermandades que exponian sus imágenes titulares al público y de diferentes maneras. En la fotografía el Santísimo Cristo del Mayor Dolor (Hermandad del Dulce Nombre), una escultura realizada en madera de cedro policromada, de 1,40 m de altura. Esta talla por sus caracteristicas se ha enmarcado dentro del estilo manierista sevillano. Obra anónima atribuida indistintamente a los escultores Juan Oviedo, El Mozo (1565-1625) y Andrés de Ocampo (1555-1653) Esta maravillosa talla se podia ver expuesta como muestra mi foto en la Parroquia de San Lorenzo (Sevilla). Captura realizada a pulso con iso alto y muy baja luz cuando me tocó mi turno para ponerme delante de este altar
(ENGLISH)
Imagery is a specialty of the art of sculpture for the plastic representation of religious themes, usually realistic and for devotional, liturgical, processional or catechetical purposes. It is linked to the Catholic religion due to its iconic character, which is why we find it especially in countries of Catholic culture: Spain, Italy, Portugal and Latin America and, to a lesser extent, France, Canada, the Netherlands and Austria, as well as the Philippines. . The most common technique is polychrome wood carving seeking the most convincing realism, sometimes through authentic dresses and clothing, or even adding false hair. The plastic representation of religious mysteries has accompanied Christianity since its first centuries, it will be with art Romanesque and Gothic, from the 12th to the 15th century, where the evolution of sculpture in wood or imagery began, with a catechetical purpose. Until the Renaissance, the Flemish and French masters were very important. However, from the Council of Trent (1545-1563) the Catholic Church, in response to the Lutheran Reformation, decided to promote the visual arts as a means of reaching the attention of the faithful, developing extraordinary imagery during the Baroque period in the area. Mediterranean, the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America.
Remembering this past Sevillian Holy Week without processions in its streets due to the pandemic, I visited some brotherhoods that exposed their titular images to the public and in different ways. In the photograph the Santísimo Cristo del Mayor Dolor (Hermandad del Dulce Nombre), a sculpture made of polychrome cedar wood, 1.40 m high. This carving, due to its characteristics, has been framed within the Sevillian mannerist style. Anonymous work attributed indistinctly to the sculptors Juan Oviedo, El Mozo (1565-1625) and Andrés de Ocampo (1555-1653). This wonderful carving could be seen on display as my photo shows in the Parish of San Lorenzo (Seville). Capture made by hand with high iso and very low light when it was my turn to stand in front of that altar
