Very small icicles
(different kind of landscapes)
One day (26 March 2023) there where small icicles at the railing of our balcony in Stockholm - and I thought... let's look at them with a super macro lens (those icicles were already gone in the afternoon) All of the sudden a myriad of fine details emerged in the frozen water, to fascinate the human eye...
The Micro Cosmos is really like a world of it's own, as there is so much too see, which the bare eye can't really see. I only started very recently to explore this micro cosmos world, gradually and slowly. In order to get better sharpness in the details, you use something called "focus stacking" and "focus bracketing" (e.g. you take between 5 to 15 or more images - but with different focus); That expands the sharpness, covering a deeper range of the motive. Because a single photo with a macro lens, has extremely limited depth of sharpness (often much less than 1 millimeter).
But with 'focus bracketing' - you can expand this range of sharpness into much greater depths, making small details suddenly come to life.

Tous les objets, petits ou grands, projettent des ombres et les montagnes aussi. Cependant, sur ce cliché, un pic en particulier projette son ombre non seulement au sol, mais aussi dans les nuages, chose plutôt rare à observer. Cette photo du Mont Rainier (stratovolcan) a été prise par Lisa Bishop. Washington / États-Unis
All objects, big or small, cast shadows and so do mountains. However, in this shot, one peak in particular casts its shadow not only on the ground, but also in the clouds, something rather rare to observe. This photo of Mount Rainier (stratovolcano) was taken by Lisa Bishop. Washington / United States

Un gigantesque trou bleu en plein cœur des montagnes Dinara en Croatie . Autrement appelé "L’œil Bleu" (Modro oko). Remarquez l'homme assis en haut à gauche de la photo pour avoir une idée de la taille de cette ouverture vers les profondeurs de la Terre..
A gigantic blue hole in the heart of the Dinara mountains in Croatia
. Otherwise called "The Blue Eye" (Modro oko).
Notice the man sitting in the top left of the photo to get an idea of the size of this opening to the depths of the Earth.

La météorite de Fukang est une météorite mixte métal-silicate, de type pallasite. Elle a été trouvée en 2000 dans le désert de Gobi près de Fukang dans la région autonome du Xinjiang (Chine). D'un poids initial de 1003 kg, la météorite a été vendue en morceaux à des collectionneurs ou à des instituts de recherche. La météorite de Fukang est classée dans la catégorie des météorites de type Pallasite (moins de 1 % des météorites trouvées) et a une origine qui remonte à la création du système solaire (4.5 milliards d'années). Sa très grande taille est très rare car la plupart des météorites n'ont pas résistées à une désintégration lors de leur rentrée atmosphérique terrestre. Des morceaux de cette météorite se sont vendus de 30 à 50 $ le gramme du fait de sa rareté et de sa très grande beauté. Et dire que cette sublime oeuvre d'art provient du fin fond de l'univers...

L'Eucalyptus arc-en-ciel, autrement appelé l'arbre aux mille couleurs ! L’eucalyptus deglupta, dit eucalyptus arc-en-ciel, est un arbre sans pareil. Il est cultivé pour son tronc décoratif qui a la particularité de changer de couleur avec le temps ! Un arbre haut en couleur originaire des Philippines, de l'île de Mindanao plus précisément. Cette espèce s'est ensuite progressivement répandue en Polynésie française, en Nouvelle Guinée et en Nouvelle-Bretagne. Il est considéré comme un des arbres les plus beau du monde. Pourquoi une couleur arc-en-ciel ? L’eucalyptus arc-en-ciel a la particularité de perdre en permanence (et à différents moments) des bouts de son écorce, qui se détache en longs et fins lambeaux, dévoilant ainsi un tronc qui change de couleur avec le temps. D'abord vert pâle, puis bleu, violet, orange et enfin marron, son tronc est une mosaïque de couleurs donnant l'apparence d'un véritable arc-en-ciel ! On jurerait qu’un peintre y a essuyé ses pinceaux, mais ses couleurs sont bel et bien naturelles. “Degluptere” signifie d’ailleurs “peler” en latin. Chaque arbre perd à un rythme différent ses bouts d’écorce, ce qui fait que chaque eucalyptus arc-en-ciel a des motifs colorés différents. De même, chaque spécimen voit son écorce changer continuellement de couleur au cours de sa vie. Un véritable enchantement pour les yeux ! Cette variété d’eucalyptus est la seule (parmi plus de 900 espèces) à ne pas produire d’huile essentielle. L’eucalyptus arc-en-ciel a une croissance très rapide et peut atteindre jusqu’à 75 mètres de haut ! Sa vitesse de croissance est d’environ 3 m/an. Il est orné de fleurs blanches-jaunes rassemblées en panicules le long des branches. Ses feuilles, de forme ovale, sont persistantes. Bref, un arbre unique en son genre !
The Rainbow Eucalyptus, otherwise known as the tree of a thousand colors! Eucalyptus deglupta, known as rainbow eucalyptus, is a tree without equal. It is cultivated for its decorative trunk which has the particularity of changing color over time! A colorful tree native to the Philippines, the island of Mindanao more precisely. This species then gradually spread to French Polynesia, New Guinea and New Britain. It is considered one of the most beautiful trees in the world. Why a rainbow color? The rainbow eucalyptus has the particularity of permanently (and at different times) losing ends of its bark, which comes off in long, thin shreds, thus revealing a trunk that changes color over time. First pale green, then blue, purple, orange and finally brown, its trunk is a mosaic of colors giving the appearance of a real rainbow! You would swear that a painter wiped his brushes there, but its colors are indeed natural. “Degluptere” means “to peel” in Latin. Each tree sheds its bits of bark at a different rate, so each rainbow eucalyptus tree has different colored patterns. Similarly, each specimen sees its bark continuously change color during its life. A real delight for the eyes! This variety of eucalyptus is the only one (among more than 900 species) not to produce essential oil. The rainbow eucalyptus is very fast growing and can reach up to 75 meters high! Its growth rate is about 3 m/year. It is decorated with white-yellow flowers collected in panicles along the branches. Its oval-shaped leaves are evergreen. In short, a one-of-a-kind tree!

Cette orchidée rare nommée « Fleur du Saint-Esprit » ne fleurit qu’une fois par an. Avant de fleurir, elle ressemble à une mère et son enfant, et une fois qu’elle fleurit, elle se transforme en colombe en vol.
This rare orchid named "Flower of the Holy Spirit" blooms only once a year. Before blooming, it looks like a mother and her child, and once it blooms, it turns into a dove in flight.

Le rhodotus réticulé (Rhodotus palmatus) porte en anglais le nom de wrinkled peach : pêche ridée. C’est un champignon non toxique mais sa saveur amère le rend non comestible. La cuticule de couleur pêche, épaisse, se ride fortement en vieillissant, d’où son nom en anglais. Le pied laisse sourdre une substance gélatineuse sous forme de perles plus ou moins grosses, qui peuvent atteindre un volume important comme on le voit sur cette photo. jamie_hall_definitive_imaging
The reticulated rhodotus (Rhodotus palmatus) bears the English name of wrinkled peach: wrinkled peach. It is a non-toxic mushroom but its bitter flavor makes it inedible. The peach-colored, thick cuticle wrinkles heavily with age, hence its name in English. The foot releases a gelatinous substance in the form of more or less large pearls, which can reach a large volume as seen in this photo. jamie_hall_definitive_imaging
