Snorkelling in the natural aquarium near Bonito. Known for exceptional visibility and large numbers of colourful fish. To help preserve the balance, visitors are asked not to be wearing sunscreen or insect repellent before they swim.

Whatcha doin', man? I'm cutting up some fresh vegetables for dinner. Yeah? Where's the meat? No meat. That's out. I'm increasing my intake of antioxidants. No meat? Damn. How come? Doctor says I gotta cut down on all those free radicals. Know what I mean? You mean those radicals are still free? Wow. I mean, I thought they was all thrown in jail years ago. What? No, man. So they out. Cool. Sure. Whatever. Have a carrot. I never knew you were so political. Yeah, well these are turbulent times. Right on with that.

Das letztemal habe ich diese 5 Spingfedern vorne und hinten mit Makrolichtern angeleuchtet,hier habe ich wieder einen schwarzen Acrylboden verwendet,ich habe verschiedene,leuchtende Farbkarten ausgesucht und nur von Vorne auf die Karten mit weißen Licht geleuchtet,sodass auch diese schönen Farben auch auf der Acrylplatte wunderbar gespiegelt wurden und habe auch mit den Fokus etwas gespielt :)) Pip1-7: Nahaufnahmen der Springfeder in verschiedenen Farbleuchten Last time, I illuminated these five springs from the front and back with macro lights. This time, I again used a black acrylic base. I selected various luminous color cards and shone white light onto them only from the front, so that these beautiful colors were wonderfully reflected on the acrylic plate. I also played around with the focus a bit. :)) Pip1-7: Close-ups of the spring under different colored lights La dernière fois, j'ai éclairé ces cinq ressorts de face et de dos avec des éclairages macro. Cette fois-ci, j'ai de nouveau utilisé un support en acrylique noir. J'ai sélectionné différentes cartes de couleurs lumineuses et je les ai éclairées uniquement par l'avant avec une lumière blanche, afin que ces magnifiques couleurs se reflètent superbement sur la plaque acrylique. J'ai aussi un peu joué avec la mise au point. :)) Photos 1 à 7 : Gros plans du ressort sous différentes lumières colorées

It was just too hard to resist a fairly clear sky (some low cloud at left horizon) and a new moon. This covers about 180 degrees (stitched panorama). The local town throws up some light at the right. Needs to be viewed large. EDIT: I've now edited and replaced this with a different projection.

Il y a deux ans. On marchait sur le sable , marquant le sol humide de nos pas de promeneurs solitaires. A qui étaient ces traces que l'ombre d'un soir précoce avalait en signant la falaise?

I found this slimey creature wandering around the rim of one of my compost bins. I know......lovely isn't it?
