Mungo National Park Desert sky for Skywatch Friday

 


The shot was taken using a Voigtlander 12mm f2.8. It was a tiring trip to access the location. I regret taking this lens only to a night shoot. The colour is not the same as Sony FE 14mm f1.8

Chironomids for Saturday Critters

 


Found this on wiki 

Chironomids as a group are very diverse in their life histories and exhibit a variety of behaviours during their development. Due to their species ambiguity and this diversity of behaviours, there is much controversy in research on their feeding habits, particularly as adults.

Many reference sources in the past century or so have repeated the assertion that the Chironomidae do not feed as adults, but an increasing body of evidence contradicts this view. Adults of many species do, in fact, feed. The natural foods reported include fresh fly droppings, nectar, pollen, honeydew, and various sugar-rich materials.

Skipping Girl Old Sign Richmond for Sign2

 


I grew up looking at this sign. Not standing out on its own. But there is a growing cult regarding the sign in photographer community.

This was what we did after sake drink with Joel last Thursday.

The other old sign is Nylex which is no longer lit at night. Otherwise I would love to do a long exposure on it.
