You might spot me at Kirra Beach, the South-Eastern end of the Gold Coast, Australia, if you like beach walking like myself... but there is more ! My son Jeff (*jif3d*, here at Rendo, it helps to advertise, ooops)... he took this pic of me in 2000, then manipulated it in photo-shop and it's still one of my favourites. Just very briefly about my past... *born in East Prussia; *grew up in Berlin, West Germany; *migrated to "OZ" in 1960, (not the Wizard of Oz) but...AUSTRALIA ! I guess I was more into '2D' since early childhood, and thinking that my son Jeff may have inherited some of my artistic skills, because he translated them into '3D'. I am hooked on photography, since I discovered cameras... that's it in a nutshell. BTW - one of my fav.quotes.... ** I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure - which is trying to please everybody !** that's a wrap... Cheers Brigitte.

His life is hanging by a thread (or is it her life?). Either way, nice capture.

Thank you so much, Brigitte. In zoom, this is a terrific photo: The detail is striking, and the mass of the pupae connected by a tiny thread (actually, I think I see one on the backside as well) is striking as well. And the background is perfectly unfocussed into a big sea of greens and a few other hues and lights. Beautifully caught and handled, I love the shot.
Thank you so much for for making this a birthday gift, it's beautiful. And beautiful words to go along with it. Your description is beautiful---you have a way with words, a Sprachkünstler (ja? ist das richtig? am I close?)---as is your wish to me; and I'm very grateful for all of it. You say it's 'unusual', but all your creations are unusual; perfect designs, one after the next...thank you so much, Brigitte. (I love that you wished that my 'museum' characters should come by and visit: I'd pay to have that happen!) Thank you so much, you always make everyone feel and look so special, and that is one of your many talents. Thank you for this beautiful gift, my friend.

Super amazing Nature shot and birthday card Brigitte.
All the outstanding and intricate details are explained so graciously in your write-up, thanks a bunch.
There is a lot we take for granted in our day, this was a real eye opener..
Great camera work and presentation.

What a beautiful balancing act, caught in a defiant attitude, dear BB-chen! its textures are just brilliant, and I see it has three stripes, which he proudly shows to us. So, it's probably an admiral, or a Knight of Oz. Anyway, it's a beautiful golden gift for our friend Mark.
