As a gesture and friendly greeting  for Paco, a larva of the small fly Hydrellia cf. albilabris made its mining corridor in a frond of the Greater Duckweed Spirodela polyrhiza as the number "13". The larva had no writing education thus the digits are sketched in a crude manner,  but still readable (?)  This is the best it could do.

 Hydrellia cf. albilabris, you did an amazing job, welcome to the 13 club!  :)

Vanishing blue

Z5, Voigtländer 50mm f/1 + extension, IR. The latter lens was imposed on me by Frank so I had to purchase his copy :(

To enter Oslo city limits I did like the Nordmenn do: Travel inside the whale. Notice the ribcage and bones of dying prey colorised for better identification

today Birna sent me to town with a puzzeld puzzling lens that was accidentally assembled in a way that did not allow for focussing to infinity. With all of its other 'features' it resembled more of an effect filter so I tried to use it 'effectively' ...
