I created these earrings using silver plated hoops as a base.
Using the brick stitch technique, I wove tiny seed beads around the perimeter of these sturdy little hoops, using nymo thread, a strong multifilament thread favored by bead artists. The beadwork on these earrings will not flop around as I use a firm tension in my weaving, but it is slightly flexible.
These earrings feature tiny size 11 and size 15 seed beads in blue, teal, orange and purple for a colorful, tribal boho or folk look.
Dimensions: The earrings measure 1.375 inches across at their widest, and 1.125 inches tall. (The earrings measure 3.5 cm across at their widest, and 2.9 cm tall.)

3D image cube, applying my own images and processing.
Photos were taken at Trevarno Gardens, Cornwall.
Collect these, and eight 1x1 tiles with clips.
Put the clips around the octagonal bit (which needs a name... I wanna say Terry)
and then put the rest together.
If you say someone else came up with this first, I'm gonna get depressed.
Example of noise reduction using multiple exposures.
These are crops at 800% from the sky of a photo taken in daylight with CirPol, ND and ND Grad filters giving a 1.3 second exposure.
A digicam owner would no doubt be pleased with the result in frame one, but the result from averaging 4 frames from a DSLR is quite remarkably smooth! Reducing the noise effectively increases the dynamic range, giving more scope for post-processing.
See Sean McHugh's wonderful tutorials for more information.
For this i used a black card to cover the front of the lens. Within the black card i cut out the shape of a heart so that once the correct aperture was set, the blurred lights in the background would be presented accordingly
After purchasing the fine book by Paul Jackson "Folding techniques for designers," I decided to fold the tessellations by Ron Resch. Not that they are in the book but the figure of Ron Resch has always intrigued me. Apart from folding paper, which is always a good thing, Ron Resch was an architect, that perhaps is also nice ... I do not know, I'm an architect and sometimes I like it and sometimes I don't ... but in general I feel akin to other architects, not all architects. However Ron Resch was an architect here he is in beautiful pictures uploaded by Eric Gjierde. Look at that face: the face of an architect; my father was an engineer and when I was a child, all his architects friends, tremendously resembled Ron Resch ... the beard had to be some kind of uniform... unfortunatly I cannot wear it. But Ron Resch is not only famous for his paper tessellations, Ron Resch did other jobs, first of all he was a teacher and a researcher at the university and... consultant for the geometry of the spaceships of Star Trek. This is stuff that has always intrigued me and also I've always envied. I do not know what I would give to do that job. I have no idea about how one becomes a consultant for the design of the geometry of the spaceships, and end up working with Isaac Asimov: well! Is there a degree? Do you send your curriculum to a certain emailing? No, because I am an architect and I have some experience in the field of geometry ... not to mention my experience in Star Trek! That, of the three subjects is certainly the one that I know better.
In his spare time Ron Resch was also an artist and is known for having built a work of art known as "the world's largest Easter egg ... and who knows me by name and surname will well understand that at this point my respect for Ron Resch is now skyrocketing. Unfortunately on Ron Resch are very few reports. There is something on Wikipedia in the "origami" entry, and there is also an interestingarticle on their site, by Erik and Martin Demaine, unfortunately the links to the website of Ron Resch have been disabled and substituted with something else I must advice to NOT try to connect to, unless you are adult (very adult... actually... at first sight I did not even understand so well what it was)... unuseful to say that I would love to have back the real Ron Resch's site. The tessellations are a real fun to fold, according to GeneratorX Ron Resch patented these tessellations. I do not know whether it is true that you can patent such a simple fold, I think that rather than patent the fold he patented the structures based on this tessellation, any way thanks (many thanks!) to Eric Gjerde we can link to the patent (I haven't read it yet... so I'm not sure about what I'm saying) .... in any case the pattern is quite easy and as wrote here others arrived independently at the same result ... with all the other regular tessellating polygons... as it was probably not easy but obvious. Finally I love the tactom's and Daniel Piker's video and I love the research developed by responsive kinematics ... I wish I did it myself.
I now want to fold a really big tess ... I have the paper, but not the time ... in any case will be a job to do with the warm season :-))) while waitng I'll continue my experiments on the A4 ... there will be time for A0 or better A0s. I wish all of you to be polyhedric :-))
Far from the most interesting shot I've ever taken, but this was mainly an exercise in HDR processing, which I haven't really done in a while. Comments appreciated!

During conventional plant breeding genes are mixed and newly assorted. This results in non-desired traits being inherited together with the trait of interest. Several generations of backcrossing to the elite variety are needed to remove these from the new variety.
Taken from Heron Quays Station platform. Number 43 brings up the rear of a Lewisham to Bank train entering Canary Wharf station whilst another vehicle sits at West India Quay station beyond on a Canary Wharf to Stratford Service.
I took this picture because I love the way the stations are so close together - the platforms feel longer than the gap between stations for these three stations.
The picture is black and white apart from the DLR vehicles because the picture is fairly boring in either black and white or colour, but by being black and white and leaving the vehicles red, the focal point is much much stronger.
I tried using just the red channel when converting to black and white - which leaves the vehicles fairly light but the focal point is nowhere near strong enough compared to keeping them red.
Technique wise it is just a case of using a Channel Mixer Layer (which converts the background picture to monochrome) in Photoshop - I did use the red channel in the end. Then erasing the Channel Mixer layer over the DLR vehicles to bring the colour back.
This technique can be used gratuitously, and is one that I don't often go for, but can be used to good effect.

So these hips are used in all my minifig scale battlemechs, these are built for a natural movement as seen on the mechwarrior series games, allowing pitch and yaw as well as a natural hip movement when walking, the most complex of these, the one in the middle has 5 articulation points just for the torso, also the fingers and shieldings on every leg are articlated for maximum posing ability
Color code:
Red = Torso attachment point (Torso yaw, on the last one the yaw is part of the central hip module)
White = Structural joints
Lime green = Main hip module ( torso side to side roll)
Aquablue = Legs and hip connection (absent on the first one wich uses a direct lego to hip module)
Dark Green = Legs joint (Torso up and down pitch)
Orange = First leg segment
Light blue = Second leg segment
Purple = Foot
Lilac (light purple) = Fingers and armor paddings (Also articulated)
Feel free to download the file "Technique - Mech Hips Examples.lxf" for a in deep view of these and use them if you find them usefull

ODC, P is for … Finally, a smile of sorts from my poorly Princess. She doesn't like to show her tooth-gaps so it's seldom a full smile, but I take what I can get these days. I try to get regular photos for both my sake and for various family members scattered around the world, so I took full advantage of her being less than usually active today and thought this might make a nice P for Princess and Something Sweet (call me sentimental, haha).
It's pretty cool how you bring out the shadows and highlights by blending with the underlying layer. The combination of all the techniques applied really helps to give the final 'pop'.

Millbrook, New York
Reference number: 100004333
Innisfree is a public garden of approximately 200 acres, blending Japanese, Chinese, Modern, and ecological design principles in Millbrook, a rural area roughly in the center of Dutchess County, New York. Innisfree’s distinctive sloping, rocky landscape, which forms the literal and visual foundation for the garden, is set within a natural bowl wrapping around the 40-acre Tyrrel Lake. This bowl, with no other signs of human intervention visible beyond the garden, creates a profound sense of intimacy and privacy at Innisfree that is one of its defining characteristics. A product of postwar ideas in American landscape architecture, Innisfree merges the essence of Modernist and Romantic ideas with traditional Chinese and Japanese garden design principles in a form that evolved through subtle, sculptural handling of the site and slow, science-based manipulation of its ecology. The result is a distinctly American stroll garden organized around placemaking techniques used in ancient Chinese villa gardens and described as “cup gardens.”
Innisfree, one of the largest intact modern designed landscapes in America, is the masterwork of Lester Collins (1914-1993), a seminal figure in American twentieth century landscape architecture. Lester Collins, fellow of the American Society of Landscape Architects, was one of the most sought-after designers and influential educators of his generation. Innisfree’s design reflects the philosophies and practices that guided Collins’s approach throughout his career, integrates innovative, sometimes truly groundbreaking horticultural and environmental engineering practices, and embodies the distinctive characteristics of postwar Modernist landscape architecture.
Innisfree began as the private estate of Walter and Marion Beck, who started initial work on the garden during the early 1930s. Starting in 1938, they continued its development in collaboration with and under the direction of Lester Collins. In 1960, following the deaths of the Becks and pursuant to their wishes, Collins transformed Innisfree from a private estate garden into a substantially larger, more nuanced public garden. He ran the public
garden while continuing to gradually develop and transform the landscape until his death in 1993.
Innisfree demonstrates Collins’s focus on the experience of people in the landscape; his ability to respond adroitly to the particularities of site and program; his approach and aesthetics as a Modernist; his scholarly understanding of landscape history, particularly of Romantic, Chinese, and Japanese gardens; and his innovative use of scientific and engineering principles to develop an environmentally and economically sustainable landscape. Innisfree has long been a mecca for designers from all over the world and it is now attracting similar attention from the global horticultural
community.
The primary features of Innisfree’s design are its principal cup gardens (loosely understood as garden rooms), Tyrrel Lake, and the Lake Path. Collins used the unifying features of the lake and lake path to integrate the many cup gardens into one dynamic experience in the natural landscape. The cup gardens vary in form, scale, and materials. One is an organically shaped meadow bisected by a wildly meandering stream and dotted with sculptural rocks and specimen trees. Another is a bog garden that has been carefully but lightly managed so that a new plant community emerged to play a particular aesthetic role. One more still is an elaborate complex of rock terraces stepping down a slope, each with its own vocabulary of design, materials, and mood.
Throughout the garden, there are themes and motifs that recur in varied forms. There is a dynamic tension between what appears to be natural and what appears to be cultivated. At a macro scale, this is evidenced by the entirety of the garden itself emerging from apparent wooded wilderness. Undulating, almost surreal natural topography is echoed in the rounded forms of clipped trees and constructed berms. Tall, straight pine trunks are mirrored in a 60’ high fountain jet. Naturalistic bogs are discreetly cultivated while areas that look like traditional planted beds are allowed to evolve and change like native plant communities.
While there are some exceptional horticultural specimens at Innisfree, the vast majority of the plants are native or naturalized. Instead of labor-intensive maintenance to strictly adhere to a fixed planting plan, plants are encouraged to find locations where they thrive just as they do in the wild and then gently edited for aesthetics. Sometimes this is achieved simply by allowing plants to self-sow; sometimes by sowing seed or moving plants in from elsewhere on site to increase a successful population; sometimes by limited hybridization to develop strains that are more ideally suited to specific local conditions. As a result, the overall plantings at Innisfree have an unstudied visual character punctuated by a handful of carefully placed, carefully sculpted trees.
There is also a deliberate choreographing of human perceptual experiences throughout Innisfree. Collins paid particular attention to these ideas. Scale ranges from massive to intimate. Spaces are open and bright, or tight and shadowy. Surfaces vary in material, texture, slope, and sound. Water changes form, scale, and sound. Design and planting details are dense or spare.
Another important motif at Innisfree is sculptural landforms. Collins began to clear trees to reveal the undulating glacial landforms. Collins felt that “land shapes, both natural and man-made…separate but also knit together sequences of cup gardens. Just like the sculptural rocks, these land forms are permanent design features in the garden, for they do not grow and their health is not subject to vagaries.” In the 1970s and early 1980s, Collins created dramatic berms in the garden to echo and emphasize the natural landforms.
In the nearly 70 years since Innisfree opened to the public, the garden has delighted and captured the imagination of experts and non-experts alike. Garden lovers, landscape writers and critics have sought to capture the unique aesthetic qualities and unusual design sophistication of Innisfree in various descriptive terms.

The eggs were drizzled with melted butter.
Today I will tell you a few secrets about the presentation and technique. It would be interesting if you could see the sequence of photos that preceeded this one. I made a series of small adjustments, in both the lighting, exposure and aperture, and in the arrangement of items on the table.
The eggs are the hero, and with the camera low, they weren't heroic. I could have raised the camera, but then you would see less of the background. Instead, I tilted the plate. Now that I point this out, you can probably see the tilt. Under the far edge of the plate are a lens cap and my car keys.
I started out shooting at f/8, which is my default, but decided I wanted the background objects to be in soft focus, so I experimented with opening the aperture a bit.
Several of the photos were rejected because the edge of the photo was too close to the top of the yellow gourd in the top center. It wasn't cropped at all, but something needs to be in or out of the photo, almost never with the edge of the object tangent to the crop. So I backed off and reshot.
I played with the positioning of the corn, orange gourd and toast point that hangs off the plate. I didn't want a big white space between the plate and the left edge of the corn. I didn't want any of these three elements to overlap, and I didn't want the corn to overlap the plate. I finally was able to arrange to have the toast corner fit into space in front of the gourd and to the right of the corn.
Lest you think everything in the composition was calculated, I will make this confession: It is only in looking back at this photo that I see all the twins. Most noticeable are the repeated patterns of the eggs and toast, but to a lesser extent the bacon, corn and yellow gourds are also acting as twins.
It is not a coincidence that the gourds echo the color of the egg yolks or that the blue china is pleasingly opposed to the orange tones that appear throughout the photo. The color wheel is a revelation, and I especially love pairing orange against blue. Some sky-blue Fiesta ware is on my want list.
All in all I am satisfied with the results. The only thing I see to change is I wish the cup of tea had been a little more full. I can hear someone reading this and hollering, "Fix it in Photoshop!" Maybe I will some time. I have done it before, but that is a trick I will not confess to in public.

Trichrome photography involves taking three exposures of the same subject on black and white film. Each exposure is taken through a red, green or blue filter.
One of the early users of the process, over a hundred years ago, was Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky , he used projectors with coloured filters to make a combined image, nowadays it can be done with photo editing software such as Photoshop.
For this trichrome, I used the Harris Shutter technique, which was invented by Robert Harris of Kodak for making colour photographs with the different primary colour layers exposed in separate time intervals in succession. Using an Olympus ECR35 35mm camera, I took three photos of the scene on black and white film (Rollei RPX400) with a red, green or blue filter in front of the lens. It took several seconds to change the filter, so moving subjects, such as clouds or people, appear in different positions and in different colours, while static subjects appear normal.
On the old podracer. There were a couple techniques i thought were good that I had come up with for this build...about 2 and 1/2 yrs ago...and I liked my Boba visor one. Figured it was worth a couple shots. That and the power coupling beam.
