Say no more!
The things you see on the shoreline of the Great Salt Lake, Utah, USA. This particular grouping of crystals and general weirdness was on the White Rock Bay beach on Antelope Island.

THE WEIRD 2012
I love these things......
Cuttlefish are sometimes referred to as the chameleon of the sea due to their ability to change colour almost as often as me on a Sunday morning after a dodgy curry!
No, these aren't weird space mushrooms. Just an abstract-ish photo of frozen bubbles in a lake in Governor Dodge. I've always loved photos of frozen methane bubbles in Lake Abraham in Canada, so when I saw these little bubbles I really wanted to make a poor man's version. Wisconsin weather has been pretty up and down lately, and it's looking like it will be warm again next week. I wanted to put this photo out there while it's still cold! :)

More aurora, these from New Years Day 2025, early evening. Weirdly in the west, started with pastel colours, but progressed to strong, dancing columns in reds and purples. So different to the Hogmanay display.
This is the color version of an earlier Monochrome post. I really liked both, but didn;t want to put them up side by side.We awoke to this stark, appropriate for the desert light at the base of the Panamint Mountains in Death Valley National Park.
Sunset over Richmond Park - taken with RMC Tokina Mirror lens. Out of focus light sources appear as doughnuts!!! Weird!!
tried asking him why he needed 3 bodies for the event but got a weird reaction/response....never did find out...not sure this guy has all his marbles there
no i did not spend my one morning off this week creating a pattern and sewing Leia's senatorial dress out of thrift store bed sheets and making hairpieces. because that would be weird and obsessive and totally crazy.
okay. i lied. i totally did all of that stuff. i have an illness - and it is called 'flickr friday'. or 'star wars'. take you pick. in my defense, i have four halloween parties to attend this year, and i am wearing this one to my kids' party.
it has a few things i need to go back and fix editing wise, so forgive any incongruence.
i originally titled this "Vader's Daughter", but it felt wrong. I felt that the nod to Anakin was needed.
this is a tribute to the painting Whistler's Mother. the art in the frame was pulled from this interview with Mike Mayhew about working with George Lucas (it is the final installment of 3 interviews which are all interesting reads if you are strong in the force).
anyway - i am going to go let go of any hope that i may be a cool, well-adjusted adult. xoxo.

another one of those rescued Holgas - I have now taped up the B button so hopefully now more mishaps! - still got a few of these I am starting to like tho!!!
I think I know where JW Turner got his inspiration from for his style of Impressionism; looking at the back of gravestones.
Jay and I have a fondness for what we call, with our weird sense of black humour, stalking the dead, i.e., visiting graveyards and cemeteries. We find them fascinating and strangely soothing places to be in…and a target rich environment for photography. It's possible to spend hours in them, finding all manner of subject matter to capture.
The above gravestone is located at a small village chapel tucked away on the slopes of Bickerton Hills. Fortunately, for the lichens that adorn the gravestones, and for we as photographers, there's a large mature stand of pine trees that shields the backs of the gravestones from direct sunlight thereby giving the lichens a perfect environment to grow in. Most important of all, though, unlike a lot of gravestones which are made from granite/marble, those at this graveyard are made from the local sandstone, which means they have a rough, porous surface which holds moisture and gives the lichens the best surface to grow on.
It was while I quietly walked amongst the graves searching for subjects that I saw this gravestone from behind. It stopped me in my tracks. I was stunned by the colours, textures and sheer variety of lichens on display but it was the Impressionistic quality that made me catch my breath. I immediately sat down, put my camera to one side and just stared in astonishment. It was like looking at a Turner painting, done at his most wildly Impressionistic! My imagination went into overdrive, to my eyes I saw woodland ablaze with green flame and smoke…
Slowly coming to my senses I picked my camera up and took this shot. I then spent the next 30 minutes checking the backs of all the other gravestones and shooting what I could before the light died. My face hurt from the stupid grin that was plastered to my face. I resolved there and then to create a series of images of these wonderful, living natural art creations. I'm fortunate that there are many similar chapel graveyards in the area so I should have quite a choice of subject matter to choose from.
So you think trainspotting is a weird hobby. Here's another one. Today I noticed a group of men with huge telephoto lenses next to the appartment building where I live. Subject of their visit was a rare bird, that had landed in a lawn. Bird in question is a hoopoe (Upupa epops, hop in Dutch).
It seems to be very rare in The Netherlands, as it normally lives in warmer areas. I must admit the bird looks fantastic. I was able to get a shot of the bird, but as I don't have a mega telephoto lens, I couldn't get a close up.
I really like birds, but I don't think I'd lay down in the grass like these guys do. The lawn is a popular place for people walking their dog too...

There's just too much to se here on the the internet xD and i'm just too much of a distracted person.. really, even an ant distracts me. But today is friday which means I can work on the pictures I took the past days and post them!
