For the SoS group: "Blue for You - ME 2021"
This is a good time to highlight ME - or Post-Viral Syndrome as I think of it. Long Covid is the most recent manifestation of the devastation that viral infections can leave in their wake, enduring long after the initial virus has departed. Reading descriptions of Long Covid I find so many nods of recognition, see so many similarities.
When Maria first introduced me to this theme in 2019 I decided to "come out of the closet" and write about my own decades of struggling with ME/PVS Here. And I've written more extensively on my Blog M.E. and me.
It is an area that has been neglected, overlooked, ridiculed, and even dismissed as non-existent. But by tapping into the resource of the existing millions around the world who have been trying to find a way to live with the aftermath of viral infections, maybe the road to recovery (or a way to live with the new reality) will prove to be shorter and less devastating!
Thank you, Maria, for including this topic - and reminding us all that May 12th is a day of special importance!
Have happy and safe weekend 😊

Good morning friends. this is the last shot of my D80, she has accompanied me since 2007, has visited Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, Denmark, Iceland and Morocco.
After this shot it broke, there are no spare parts and it has been discontinued by Nikon.
She has been a great companion and has captured great moments and sweet memories.
She has died with dignity... finding maybe the first amateur photo of the COVID, hahaha!
R.I.P.
I take this opportunity to take a break, friends. See you in July, a big hug and take care! Be safe, and most importantly, be supportive and careful with others!
P.S.: The new D500 has arrived! Wow, it's a machine gun!
Having completed his PhD in Biochemistry, Brian has now begun post-doctoral work on the structure of the spike glycoproteins of coronaviruses - these proteins are needed for viral entry into a host cell, so his research should help with finding effective vaccines. Coronaviruses cause a range of respiratory tract infections ranging from mild to potentially lethal (such as COVID-19), so Brian is taking his work very seriously.
For Macro Mondays theme 'Plastic'. I spotted this strange little pink plastic object at my local charity shop and immediately thought 'virus'. I was very surprised that there were red/green/blue lights inside that came on for several seconds when the 'virus' was jiggled.
No snails were harmed in the making of this photograph.
A spiral orange heating element encased in a glass tube surrounded by a black, perforated, curved column (the really blurry circular foreground that creates the balls of orange, AND the somewhat blurry background that looks a bit like the patterns on soccer balls or viruses). It’s part of a table base that’s also used as an exterior heater during cold weather.
As shot, just cropped.

Eagle-Owl (Bubo Bubo) is one of the world’s largest owl species. It is also one of the most wide-ranging species of owl. It is a nocturnal bird and hunts small mammals and birds. It makes ‘ooh-huu’ kind of sounds. Eurasian eagle owl has 12 subspecies.
Eagle owl eats wide variety of creatures like birds, mammals, insects, reptiles, amphibians and fish. Its diet includes foxes, snakes, young roe deer, snakes, ducks, seabirds and frogs.
During the 20th century the Eurasian eagle-owl underwent a significant decline in Europe due mainly to human persecution. However pesticide use, collisions with vehicles, barbed wire and powerlines have all played a part. Diseases such as myxomatosis and viral haemorrhagic disease which have severely reduced rabbit populations in some areas, have also had knock-on effects for the Eurasian eagle-owl.
In recent years their populations have started to recover to some extent as a result of improved protection, extensive reintroduction and restocking programmes, and the species is not currently thought to be globally threatened, although illegal persecution still occurs, and the population remains below previous levels.

"You had it figured out since you were in school
Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool
So overnight, you look like a '60s queen
Another name goes up in lights
Like diamonds in the sky..."

Macau is always fun to visit. You get the feel of the old colonial times, as well as the bustling casino life. This shot is from the old part of the town facing the Grand Lisboa hotel.
A similar photo called "the Invasion" by Hong Kong based photographer Paul Tsui’s went viral last year.
I processed a balanced, a paintery, and photographic HDR photo from a RAW exposure, merged them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
