A lamb on a tombstone usually marks the grave of a child. See the small offering tucked away behind the lamb. Who left it? Was it a relative of this long dead child? A passing adult, honoring historic tragedy? Another child leaving a plaything?

Macro with an ex-ray lens, well with this one you can only do macro as it needs to be to close to the film/sensor to do much else..... but without post camera edits it takes some quite exciting images, focusing on what you want however is a pain. #photography #art #vintagelenses

And another 10 seconds in time, this time using the lens I made myself from an old x-ray lens. The tree is 100s of years old, the people in the image but passing ghosts in time. Even the light comes and goes and the tree remains. #photography #art #vintagelenses

One more from the crazy side with my full spectrum camera. This time no filter, set up in the dark, and a 30 second exposure. During which, I painted the flowers with a 365NM UV torch. This technique is known as Ultraviolet Induced Visible Fluorescence (UVIVF). #photography #UVIVF #UV

This is a dreamy, long exposure image of an old dead pine tree in shallow water at a beach. The clouds are moving against a grey sky. The dead three has lots of roots that support the tree in the surf.
This long exposure infrared image was made on a secluded beach in North Florida. This old snag was such a joy to photograph and we did, day and night. It stood tall until overwhelmed by the storm surge ahead of Hurricane Michael. #photography #landscapephotography #infrared

If a notorious contrarian/heterodox grifter actually does come here, one could keep in mind that yelling abuse at him, whether or not it is deserved, is putting money in his pocket, as he’ll just use it as fodder for the heterodox-victim grift.
