In this case rows of diamonds.
Diamond knurling on a blue anodized aluminum (aluminium) flashlight (torch). The complexities of English English and Canadian English.
This is my day 25 contribution to Becky’s October Squares challenge on the theme of Kind.
This is my contribution to the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #111: Everyday Objects.
I had a couple of ideas for this challenge, one of which stood out. Then when I started picking photos for this post I changed my plan completely.
Some unusual perspectives on everyday objects taken in the last six months.
This is my contribution to the Cosmic Photo Challenge: Surrealism which is an expansion of last week weeks challenge Abstract.
The wire mesh of a kitchen sieve.
Detail of the knurling on a blue anodized aluminium flashlight (torch).
Hoarfrost on chicken wire.
This is my contribution to Cee’s On the Hunt for Joy Challenge: Week 15 – Change Your Lightbulbs.
I seem to have photographed a variety of electronic light sources over the past few months so here’s a small selection.
A variety of lightbulbs illuminating Berford Street, Wiarton on the South Bruce Peninsula shortly before Christmas.
A desk lamp bulb and reflector with Photoshop filters applied to the photo.
A small flashlight clipped to the shoulder strap of a camera bag.
A ceiling light and fan.
This is my contribution to Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Week 5 – Pick a Topic from this Photo.
I went with the colours red and green from the list of prompts provided by Cee and then decided to go with photos taken within the past year.
Red anodized knurling on a small aluminium flashlight.
A red section of a sunrise isolated with a telephoto lens.
Red and green leaves in early autumn.
A green fern frond taken with a 35mm CCTV lens adapted to a mirrorless camera.
Overlapping green Hosta leaves.
On reading the prompt for the Cosmic Photo Challenge: Pick a Colour I immediately thought of blue. In part because when I read the prompt I was picking photos for the Friendly Friday Photo Challenge: Yellow and blue is the complimentary colour to yellow.
I suspect that another reason for thinking blue was because of the blue, yellow and red butterfly garden ornaments I walk past on some of my walks around the neighborhood and that I have been taking photos of for the past few winters.
Blue on blue. The giant blue butterfly garden ornament against a blue sky taken on a walk around the neighborhood last week.
Blue rain. Or at least raindrops on the roof of a blue car.
Blue aluminium. Knurled aluminium anodized blue on the body of a small torch (flashlight).
Blue dawn. A 60 second exposure at dawn allows the clouds to move across the sky over Colpoy’s Bay.
Blue ripples. The blue sky reflected in the ripples on Georgian Bay, Ontario.
Blue in the snow. The giant blue butterfly garden ornament in the snow last autumn.
A bit of a cheat, as a Brit I’ve always called them torches but if you say torch to someone in North America they think of mobs with pitchforks and flaming torches.
For day nine of Becky’s January Squares: Light photo challenge I went with a flashlight.
This is a small flashlight clipped to the strap of a camera bag. I keep one clipped to the strap of each of the bags I use regularly. They’re useful for finding my way when heading out an hour or so before sunrise. Then when I get to a location in the dark I can unclip it from the bag if I need to check something in the dark.
