Macro Mondays - Snack
Happy Macro Monday everyone.
As it's not a high day or a holiday, there aren't any naughty snacks in the house, so some walnuts and an apple will have to do :))
A Black Walnut branch fills this mosaic with beauty and subtle color. The shining sun beams through the nine leaves on the branch.
The original image was captured with my iPhone 11 in my right hand, while my left hand held the branch up against the sun.
This collage was created in picmonkey.com using my one original image and replicated six times here.
Beauty is everywhere. Reach out and capture it!
If you offer various types of nuts to the squirrels at Monrepos, they will go for the walnuts first. Walnuts in shell are carried away and buried somewhere for later use whereas unshelled walnuts are eaten right away.
Sorry, another squirrel image, and there will be more as due to the ugly weather it's difficult to take new photos. The truth is, though, that I would probably return to the squirrels rather quicky if the weather got better and take even more photos. Visiting Monrepos and watching the squirrels is among the few things I enjoy about the cold season.
Back in August I found some walnuts on the ground beneath a walnut tree. I've let them mature in the garage and after removing the green pulpy outer layer, I cracked one open today to see what was inside. Surprise surprise, a walnut!!

We drove to the Hope Valley in California to see the fall colors in the Sierra Nevada mountains. On the way we passed by a walnut tree farm near Lockeford, where we noticed a lot of dust in the trees. We stopped, it was a good photo opportunity! It turned out that the walnuts just were getting harvested. One machine drove along the nicely arranged trees to shake them one by one to make the nuts fall to the ground, another machine arranged the fallen nuts and debris in the middle between tree rows, and a third machine scooped it up. All that created a lot of dust, to the delight of us three photographers.
I processed a balanced, a paintery, and a photographic HDR photo from two RAW exposures, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
