"Digital pixel pusher" I have way too many cameras, lenses and computer stuff. Inspired by fractal-generators, math art apps, Terragen renders, photo manipulations, and a few other mutilations.

I know I'm spamming you all with the world's largest flower this week but look at THIS! A rare glimpse inside Rafflesia arnoldi!

Exterior of laundromat in a small rural town. A dark red couch is placed under a large community bulletin board; a chair and vending machine are on the other side of the door. There are two sets of windows on the upper level that have plywood behind the glass.

Hanging on in the mid November garden, a single opened rose bloom of ‘Princess Anne’ in morning sun this week.

🌱🌶️ Enjoyers of red chili pepper flakes, does this look like the right ratio of seeds to flakes? I sifted out a lot of seeds, considering adding some back in though.

Wow! 🌱

Psychopsis, the butterfly orchid. It's one of my favorites, not just because it looks so beautifully unique, but because it is a sequential bloomer, and will reflower on the same spike for years, with the right care.

Psychopsis Mendenhall 'Hildos' has three very long and thin petals on the top, which look like a stylized crown, to me. Then fringed, long sepals along the lower sides, and one large, fringed lip. The whole flower then has striking yellow and dark orange striping and dappling. This picture was taken near a South facing window.

What can ionised bubbles tell us about the expansion of the universe?

I was never any good at Terragen renders. It "used" to be simple to use. Every new version was more complicated than the last. It morphed into full screen movie effects and I just gave up. This is a heavily edited .OBJ (object file) of a tree in a 3D render experiment. Last one!

drooping green Christmas cactus sits in a weathered blue-and-yellow pot on a dark woven outdoor table. Several pale yellowing segments hang down the sides, and small round buds appear at the tips. Behind it is a bright concrete patio, a tan chair, and a screened-in yard with grass and trees in soft evening light.

S&P Oyster House, Mystic, Connecticut.
We were the first to be seated on the patio. Empty restaurant shot, before the lunch rush. Photo manip, edited in Photoshop, and ON1 Effects. Too many layers to count.
