On classic motor cars ....

Taken with intentional camera movement. Best on black (press Z).

Let's change direction and have an abstract. Explored.

This was a fairly standard macro of a thistle, before I tried some editing. :) Thanks very much indeed to Pam J ( www.ipernity.com/home/pamj ) for the details of the technique. SMC Pentax M macro 100/4.0

Recovered from the dusty archives and re-set with a new date. Best wishes and HFF, everyone. :) Try this on black.

Well, it started off as a macro. :-) Explored.

Ben Hall was a famous Australian bushranger (highwayman/bandit in other countries). While he may not have been a Robin Hood, Hall was considered a "gentleman bushranger" who never killed anyone, kept his word, and stole only from the wealthy. We went to visit the place outside Forbes where a party of police troopers gunned him down, 150 years ago today, on 5 May 1865. Maybe it was appropriate that the heavens opened as we arrived (we were unable to leave the car). This Australian folk song is about him. Explored.

Playing with the "Rule of Thirds" while taking this old abandoned railway wagon. Best on black. Explored.

I gather a new search is about to begin for intelligent life in space. View on black and try this for background music. I'm not in space, but still far from home with limited time online, Explored.
