Walked through the woods for about 40 minutes with temps around -4c before I was able to finally find a good location to capture this shot of Hohenzollern Castle.
Hope everyone is having a great start to the weekend. :-)
True light is dependent on the presence of other lights. Take the others away and darkness results. Yet the reverse is not true: take away darkness and there is only more darkness. Darkness can exist by itself. Light cannot.

I took this in Golden Ears Park in Maple Ridge, BC on one of our very few sunny days in October.

“Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.

The key to getting a good star in this type of photo lies in three P's: Patience, Perseverance and Practice. Fortunately I have tried this a few times in the past. This was shot in a darkened room with a black background, a wee bit of light from a window provided just enough light on the calla spathe while I played around with camera settings and a tiny light source to make the star on the water droplet with a lot of trial and error. This was one of those very rare times when my initial idea for an image was actually achieved in the final result - only took me two days!
Twinkle, twinkle little drop How I wonder what you're at! Up above the world you fly, Like a tea-tray in the sky.

Explored November 30, 2021
Actually this was meant for the first Sunday of Advent – yesterday –, but I didn't get around to upload it (and neither to take my MM shot), so this is an unusual Monday contribution, not a macro, but actually a Monday slider. It's also another photo from Hot Pixel Universe, a universe only the LX100 can make visible. You may wonder about the starry sky above the Deutsche Dom (New Church), because stars are usually difficult to see in a brightly illuminated city because of light pollution. Unless you shoot with an LX100, of course ;)
If I remember correctly, long exposure noise reduction had been activated in the camera when I took this photo at the 2018 Festival of Lights. I don't know if that caused the hot pixels, or if the LX100's sensor gets particularly warm during long exposures. The hot pixels are only visible against a totally black sky, not against a blue hour sky, for instance, and especially enhancing the clarity in LR brings them out clearly.
The hot pixels aren't really a big issue, because it's easy to remove them in post. But here I actually liked them, because I think that they add such a festive look to this beautifully illuminated scene, so I decided to leave them in the image. Or rather: I added them back to the photo from an older, already processed version of this shot, because when I re-processed this image just the other day in DXO PhotoLab 5, the amazing DeepPRIME denoising technology detected the hot pixels and removed them. I hope you like Hot Pixel Universe :)
Wishing you a happy time of Advent, dear Flickr friends. Take care and stay safe!
Eigentlich wollte ich dieses Foto gestern zum 1. Advent hochladen, bin aber leider nicht dazu gekommen. Ihr fragt Euch jetzt wahrscheinlich, woher das Sternenmeer kommt, mitten in der Stadt, die zum Festival of Lights sogar noch heller beleuchtet ist als sonst. Nun, es handelt sich hierbei um ein ganz besonderes Universum, das Hot-Pixel-Universum, das nur die LX100 sichtbar machen kann ;)
Wenn ich mich recht erinnere, war damals die Langzeitrauschunterdrückung in der Kamera aktiviert. Ob mir das nun die vielen "Sterne" beschert hat oder der Sensor der LX100 bei Langzeitbelichtungen außergewöhnlich warm wird, kann ich nicht sagen. Ich weiß nur, dass ich sie auch bei einigen anderen Nachtfotos vom Festival of Lights hatte, aber immer nur bei bereits völlig schwarzem Himmel, nie z.B. zur Blauen Stunde, und erst das Verstärken der Klarheit in LR hebt die kleinen Pünktchen so richtig hervor.
Das Entfernen wäre auch keine große Sache, tatsächlich erkennt mittlerweile die Entrauschungstechnologie DeepPRIME in DXO PhotLab 5 diesen Bildfehler so zuverlässig, dass mir das Programm jetzt, als ich das Foto noch einmal neu bearbeitet habe, die Pixel fast sämtlichst entfernt hat. Da sie mir hier aber so gut gefallen haben, weil sie dem Foto so ein weihnachtliches, festliches Strahlen verleihen, habe ich mir die Sternlein aus einer bereits 2018 bearbeiteten Version des Fotos einfach zurückgeholt :) Ich hoffe, Euch gefällt meine kleine "Deutscher Dom unter Sternenmeer"-Spielerei :)
Ich wünsche Euch eine trotz allem schöne Adventszeit. Passt gut auf Euch auf!
Another macro shot from yesterday morning, of some dew-laden grass seeds being lit through the morning mist by the sun.
Can you tell me a secret?
Can you tell me what's wrong with me?
I know I should be angry
But I can barely feel a fuckin' thing
Can you tell me a secret?
Can you tell me what's wrong with me?
