A hectic season for stacking photography is drawing to a close. Leaving behind it the not unexpected chaos in the stacking room ...

(This is the actual setup for my prior entry, "Dark side of the Moon").

Dark Side of the Moon

or not ... a section of the drupe fruit of a Spiral Tasselweed Ruppia cirrhosa. Shot with D810, Mitutoyo 5X/0.14, Zerene Stacker.

Looks like the bright side of an avocado.

September 8.  Taken at around 11:55PM.  It was so dark that the cumulonimbus was almost invisible to the naked eyes.

The Society of German Architects, Section Bonn and some others regularly invite to visit places of city development. Here a new city quarter is planned to be developed, up to 350 new flats for rich, poor and average income people are projected. A local politician was there and told us that they are not sure if in the end anything will be build there at all. in the underground there seem to be non toxic wastes making the ground less dense than desireable. It is possible that the houses foundation need to go 15 meters deep into the ground to meet rock. That might be a risk noone wants to take financially esp not if the next door neighbours are insinuated to be of a clan criminal profession and the quarter does not have a very good reputation in general, with hookers on the street in the evenings and burning oil drums as a winter heating for outside amusement of the people living there. A bit of a strange but interesting event today...

The streets of Oslo are flooded with big Tesla cars ... however, nearly all of them in drab black, dark grey or navy blue hues.

The main Tesla repair facility is situated next to my photo dealer's, so naturally I have a quick peek inside ... Same drab colour scale on the cars there, too. I thought electric cars should be all fun, but apparently I'm mistaken?

Yes, they are rather drab. 

Here in Australia the colours are a little nicer including two shades of silver plus pearl white, a metallic blue, and yes a red.  Still have black and obsidian as the dark options.

No yellows, browns, or greens.

Open monument day. 

Today at a convent which was never open before for the 'outside world'.

One of three round windows in the church, the thistel, to symbolize a sober life.
