CMMC July Close Up or Macro

by 2e0mca on July 8, 2023July 8, 2023

Time for me to catch up with Cee’s Midweek Madness Challenge with some close-up’s👍

Here’s a bridge plate with crazed white paint…

…at Gospel Oak station.

West Hampstead station has got a new entrance, bridge, lifts and stairs for accessibility purposes. Here’s a section of the wall cladding on the new stairs…

…Grey seems to be in vogue at the moment🙄

Seat Moquette and Shadows…

…An example of the cloth covering the seats on Southeastern Trains.

Finally – Me trying to work out how to do a selfie…

…so I can show off my new glasses🤣

CMMC: October Autumn Colors

by 2e0mca on October 17, 2022October 17, 2022

After missing last week’s CMMC, this week I’m back with some October colors for Cee’s challenge 🙂

Despite a long dry summer, the Oak trees have a good crop of Acorns…

…Many of them already fallen to earth where the Squirrels and Jays will gather them to store for Winter. The Acorns may be brown, but the leaves are still green.

Autum is favoured by some flowering plants – Michaelmas Daisies being one that is well known. But this year I’ve got some Japanese Anemones to share…

Autumn is a time for Fungi – I believe this is a member of the Omphalotus family…

The days grow shorter as we move into mid-October and if there is a Sunrise, it is often a watery one…

…but, in the middle of the day we can be treated to a glorious blue sky to contrast with the changing colors of the trees…

CMMC – August Pick a Topic from my Photo

After a ‘Truck’ related break I’m back to take part in Cee’s Midweek Madness Challenge. Cee’s photo this week is a rather nice blue vessel – not sure if it’s a fishing vessel or a tug and she has suggested boat, golden hour, night, ship, stormy sky, blue, rock, water, bay, blue, orange, as possible subjects. So lets start with something similar…
