Ring-pulls used to be on soft drinks cans - now just about every can of soup, baked beans or whatever have these handy little aids to opening up a can without needing a can-opener, and with no danger of cutting yourself on the metal. I merged two photos here to give a slight air of mystery to the mundane ;o)

We used to have holidays.
These usually involved a beach, pool, restaurants, something of cultural interest to visit & a great deal of relaxation.
Since I bought a DSLR we don't have holidays any more.
We have missions to capture images of beautiful views & it isn't relaxing
Why didn't the camera come with the following warning;
Your behaviour may change
You will probably get addicted to Flickr
You may find yourself getting up in the dark when on holiday.
You may be running around with your camera when normal people are relaxing in the bar/ restaurant
You may find yourself driving around the country in search of views with light, mist, waves, boats, structures, flowers or wildlife
You may find yourself exploring corners of cities & places in this wonderful world we all inhabit (before it gets Nuked) that you'd never previously bothered checking out
Hasn't that got to be a great thing???
Let's be honest - I'm not the only one
This wasn't the easiest of shots trying to guess what the lasers were going to do & avoiding blown highlights from the mall opposite.
This was my favourite angle but there was a never ending stream of Bumboats into the bay from the Singapore river leaving skid marks on the water as you can see here.
Don't worry, you can relax, Bumboat doesn't mean what you might think - it comes from the Dutch word "boomschuit" meaning canoe :))
Many thanks to everyone who took the trouble to view comment or fave.
I repurposed my old B&W enlarger to become a photo copy stand. It works brilliantly in its new job because it was originally built to be perfectly square between the base and the tower that used to hold the light, lens assembly and negative holder. All the parts to make a print from a negative have been removed in favor of the ability to mount my Canon R7 body easily to the rig and then I can "scan" other images and turn them into a digital file.
I've been doing this with my family pictures that don't exist anywhere else except in these images.
But what to do with all the left over parts?
This is what I did with the lens.
Shot using a El Omegar 50mm f3.5 enlarger lens.

The chickadees use this soft moss to make their nests inside a tree cavity or birdhouse. I caught her resting on a branch in between gathering the moss from the ground and flying off to place it in her nest. This little lady and her babies are going to have a very cozy nest. I have some pictures of the nests that I'll try to find someday. They are really very beautiful, and look so soft and cozy:)

The use of strong light and shadow to define the structure enhances the dramatic effect and creates visual depth and dynamism through the contrast of light and shadow.
The composition captures an unconventional perspective on the architectural elements, making it appear like an abstract work of art.

By using a combination of a "detail extractor" and a "contrast only" filter in Color Efex Pro 4, I found the image had what could best be described as "drama." That's what this image in essence is about. I took several images while at this point just north of the Meeting-of-the-Waters Viewpoint. What I then noticed was just an amazing set of contrast that came out, especially in the rivers with the rapids and the trees with the various leaf colors. Then there was the mountainside and then the dark clouds above. With all that, contrast and drama just seem to be a way to entitle this image.
Griffon vultures have been used as model organisms for the study of soaring and thermoregulation. The energy costs of level flight tend to be high, prompting alternatives to flapping in larger birds. Vultures in particular utilize more efficient flying methods such as soaring. Compared to other birds, which elevate their metabolic rate to upwards of 16 times their basal metabolic rate in flight, soaring griffon vultures expend about 1.43 times their basal metabolic rate in flight. Griffon vultures are also efficient flyers in their ability to return to a resting heart rate after flight within ten minutes.
As large scavengers, griffon vultures have not been observed to seek shelter for thermoregulation. Vultures use their bald heads as a means to thermoregulate in both extreme cold and hot temperatures. Changes in posture can increase bare skin exposure from 7% to 32%. This change allows for the more than doubling of convective heat loss in still air. Griffon vultures have also been found to tolerate increased body temperatures as a response to high ambient temperatures. By allowing their internal body temperature to change independently of their metabolic rate, griffon vultures minimize their loss of water and energy in thermoregulating. One study in particular (Bahat 1995) found that these adaptations have allowed the Griffon vulture to have one of the widest thermal neutral zones of any bird.
It declined markedly throughout the 19th–20th centuries in much of Europe, North Africa and the Middle East, mainly due to direct persecution and "bycatch" from the poisoned carcasses set for livestock predators (Snow and Perrins 1998, Ferguson-Lees and Christie 2001, Orta et al. 2015). In some areas a reduction in available food supplies, arising from changes in livestock management practices, also had an impact (Ferguson-Lees and Christie 2001, Orta et al. 2015). It is very highly vulnerable to the effects of potential wind energy development (Strix 2012) and electrocution has been identified as a threat (Global Raptors Information Network 2015). Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) used for veterinary purposes pose a threat to this species. One case of suspected poisoning caused by flunixin, an NSAID, was recorded in this species in 2012 in Spain (Zorrilla et al. 2015). Diclofenac, a similar NSAID, has caused severe declines in Gyps vulture species across Asia.
