"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:

But a whole fetishism has grown up around the technique of photography. Technique should be so conceived and adapted as to induce a way of seeing things, preferably in essentials, excluding the effects of gratuitous virtuosity and other ineptitudes. Technique is important in that we have to master it, but it is the result that counts.

I enjoy doing the Pep Ventosa technique on trees during each season. But as we had such a long hot summer, and then suddenly it got cold and we hit winter two weeks later, it was very difficult to find a lone tree that I could walk around and was the right colour. This was the closest I could find. It's an in camera 9 image multiple exposure, walking around the tree.

 

I've been having a very busy week and will have a busy weekend with family, so I'm on and off this week. I'm sorry I won't have time to comment on all your images.

 

Zooming in can be interesting :)

 

Happy Friday!

Sa technique de pêche repose sur l'affût, perché sur une branche au-dessus de l'eau. Il repère ses proies en agitant la tête de droite à gauche, puis soit pique directement, la tête la première, depuis son perchoir, soit effectue un bref vol stationnaire avant de plonger. Il revient souvent se poser sur son perchoir dont il se servira pour assommer sa proie avant de la lancer en l'air pour la gober tête la première.

Le succès de ses pêches est très sensible aux conditions climatiques, la pluie troublant la surface, ou la turbidité de l'eau rendant le repérage des proies plus difficile.

Le martin-pêcheur régurgite des pelotes de réjection, dont une partie constitue la couche sur laquelle les œufs seront déposés au fond du terrier.

**********************************************************

His fishing technique is based on the lookout, perched on a branch above the water. He spots his prey by waving his head from right to left, then either spades directly, head first, from his perch, or performs a brief hovering before diving. He often comes back on his perch which he will use to knock out his prey before throwing it in the air to swallow head first.

The success of its fisheries is very sensitive to the climatic conditions, the rain disturbing the surface, or the turbidity of the water making the identification of the preys more difficult.

The kingfisher regurgitates balls of rejection, part of which is the layer on which the eggs will be deposited at the bottom of the burrow.

Trying the Orton Technique again with one from the archives.

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!!

La Playa L'Almadrava se encuentra en el término municipal de Benicàssim y se trata de una prolongación hacia el sur de la Playa Voramar. Su nombre se debe a una antigua técnica que se usaba para pescar. Tiene una longitud de 600 metros y una anchura de 50 metros.

Esta playa destaca por su tranquilidad, es perfecta para descansar y desconectar de la rutina. Los espigones que la separan de las playas colindantes impiden el oleaje fuerte. Sus aguas son cálidas y el paseo marítimo, exclusivamente peatonal, es la excusa perfecta para pasear y contemplar el precioso paisaje.

 

L'Almadrava Beach is located in the municipality of Benicàssim and is an extension to the south of Voramar Beach. Its name is due to an ancient technique that was used to fish. It is 600 meters long and 50 meters wide.

This beach stands out for its tranquility, it is perfect to rest and disconnect from the routine. The breakwaters that separate it from the neighboring beaches prevent strong waves. Its waters are warm and the promenade, exclusively for pedestrians, is the perfect excuse to walk and contemplate the beautiful landscape.

 

Las Villas de Benicàssim

(Castelló/ Spain)

The Eurasian spoonbill (Platalea leucorodia), or common spoonbill, is a wading bird of the ibis and spoonbill family Threskiornithidae. The genus name Platalea is from Latin and means "broad", referring to the distinctive shape of the bill, and leucorodia is from Ancient Greek leukerodios "spoonbill", itself derived from leukos, "white" and erodios "heron". In England it was traditionally known as the "shovelard", a name later used for the northern shoveler.

It was a 3-Moose day, and here are two of them. The rut was long past, but this big guy seemed to still be clinging to some fading hope: wherever the cow went, he followed.

 

I've already detailed my approach technique (under an earlier post - crawl, slither, keep behind cover, try not to jab any cactus thorns into left knee... well, two out of three isn't bad). This is an area thick with twiggy willow, ideal moose browse.

 

Only a few years ago there was standing water here, but several summers of drought have dried that up. Everyone is hoping for a return to the wet cycle. Farmers, ranchers, the moose and me.

 

The photo op ended when a third moose arrived in the vicinity - a cow. Cow 1 took exception to cow 2 and chased her off. The lone bull followed. Of course he did.

 

Since then we have had a ton of snow and plummeting temperatures, signalling the arrival of winter, for real, no kidding around this time. The roads remain good. The light wasn't good yesterday, but I returned to the park anyway, and the bull was present, although much farther away. He likes it there. I like him there. All is well on the northern prairie.

Inverted bracket keeps on giving.

Mixed techniques. Cyanotype on Chinese Solar paper and stamping on Japanese mulberry paper with fibres. 3,5h in Led light.

Okay I've almost got this technique down. Single exposure shots like this one will work very well now. Sometimes I may want to combine two shots for some crazy results, this is the ultimate goal. But very pleased with this taken at Notting Hill Statiion

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 :-)

This is a 30 second exposure of a tram passing through Piccadilly Station in Manchester. I was hoping to capture at least a little detail in the tram so I really must work on my technique.

Vue sur le Mont Bégo (2872 m alt.) depuis le second des deux lacs jumeaux près de la voie sacrée dans le Val de Fontanalba. Le refuge appartient au Parc National du Mercantour et son usage est réservé au personnel du Parc. Il y a un autre refuge ouvert aux randonneurs. Ce site (connu sous le terme de "voie sacrée") est réputé pour ses gravures rupestres datant de l'âge du bronze et dont la datation exacte est controversée. Beaucoup d'archéologues pensent qu'il s'agit du bronze ancien (2500 à 3000 ans avant J.C.)

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...

Excerpt from english.cha.go.kr/html/HtmlPage.do?pg=/royal/RoyalPalaces...:

 

If one passes the garden at the rear of the Juhamnu Pavilion and walks down along the slope of the hill leading into the stairway, the person can find a square pond on the opposite side and a pavilion on the north bank of the pond. This is the Aeryeonjeong, which is composed of only 1 kan. Looking out of the windows of the pavilion, one can enjoy a wonderful view. It looks like just a framed picture, owing to the decorations attached to the upper part of the pillars. Of course, the mood of the picture depends on the season. In particular, the stone structure, through which water comes into the pond, is opposite excellent in beauty and technique of design.

Intha Lake fishermen, renowned for their distinctive technique, navigate the waterways with a remarkable leg-rowing style. Perched at the stern of their slender wooden boats, these skilled fishermen balance on one leg while the other is wrapped around the oar. With a synchronized motion, they propel the boat forward, their arms free to manage the intricacies of the conical nets. This unique technique, evolved over generations, allows them to navigate the lake's shallow waters, where reeds and floating gardens abound. Their dexterity extends to the handling of the conical nets, an artful craft passed down through ancestral knowledge. With precision and grace, they manipulate these nets using a circular motion, skillfully casting them into the water to ensnare the abundant fish that thrive in Inle Lake's rich ecosystem. The harmony between their rowing and net handling embodies a tradition that not only sustains their livelihood but also stands as a testament to their cultural heritage and intimate relationship with the lake.

A view of Bridalvail Fall with the Cathedral Rocks in the background. Taken from Tunnelview in the west end of Yosemite Valley.

 

Cathedral Rocks and Spires form the eastern side of the canyon through which Bridalveil Creek flows. Some people think these rocks, just opposite of El Capitan, are even more impressive than El Capitan!

 

There are three main summits to Cathedral Rocks dubbed Higher, Middle, and Lower Cathedral Rocks. Adjacent to Higher Cathedral Rock are the Higher and Lower Cathedral Spires (not visible in ths photo), the most impressive spires in all of Yosemite NP. Higher Cathedral Rock is the highpoint of this group.

 

These rock features were the scene of some of the first serious rock climbing done in the Sierra during the 1930s. All of the main peaks in and around Yosemite Valley were climbed by the 1870s with the exception of the two Cathedral Spires. It would take over 50 years for equipment and technique improvements before these would also be climbed. The first aid climbing in the Sierra was done in 1933-1934 on Higher Cathedral Spire by a Sierra Club party made up of Jules Eichorn, Bestor Robinson, and Richard Leonard. In their first attempt they ran out of what they had supposed was an ample supply of pitons. With a fresh supply ordered from overseas during the winter, they were successful on their second attempt the following spring. Before the era of Big Wall climbing in the late 1950s, Cathedral Rocks saw a great deal of attention and was used to develop techniques that Robbins, Harding and others would then start to apply to Sentinel Rock, Half Dome's NW Face, El Cap, the Leaning Tower, and other Big Wall routes in Yosemite Valley.

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。

My entry for the microscale category in Brickscalibur 😀. Had quite a bit of fun with this one, not at all frustrating to place all those tiny trees…or the waterfall…😂. Hope you like it!

It is a photographic technique I like to use from time to time.

 

Have a nice Labor Day everyone!

I figured the tree technique I came up with (using stacked lassos) might work pretty well for microscale so I gave it a treehouse :)
