Watsisname and Antza2, you are really really good.

Yesterday I made a quick video for an experiment I wanted to do for my Optics Course at Madrid's University. It's about photoelasticity observed with a polarizer.

The video is in Spanish, and it's filmed with a potato, but maybe you can enjoy it smile

Photoelasticity is a beautiful part of optic physics. smile The demonstration with the stretching/snapping tape is great. Very nice vid!

That video was so cool that i wanted to try it out myself. smile

Not nearly as nice as yours, but this is all i could do with the stuff i had available.

biggrin wow! that was awesome. Yours is way cooler. I recorded the video with a mobile phone and a very bad camera with a polarizer that was quite unclean (I did everything possible to clean it, I promise) tongue

Your camera captures the vivid colors very very good. I liked a lot the ripping apart of that plastic.
Do you mind if I put your video in the description of mine explaining that to demonstrate that the laws of physics are valid everywhere in the universe a finnish friend has repeated the experiment? smile

Thanks for the interest

The fly on the yellow flower is pretty good, easily my favorite out of the bunch.

I like that one as well; that's a great capture. smile I also love the water droplets (first image), and the ninth and tenth where the drops act to magnify and focus the detail on the petals. Then I like the colors and organic forms in the seventh and eighth shots. Lastly, I want to comment on the the sixth ("Silver Spruce"). There's something about the soft unfocused whites leading up to sharp points that I find very interesting. That's a cool minimalistic use of macro photography which you don't see very often. I'd love to see you explore more with subjects like this.

Great work! smile

24h timelapse of yesterday. A typical summer's day in SE Norway. Remember your umbrella.

Couple pictures of same spider.

For scale here is a US dime set right next to the spider from behind




I really need a real macro lens for such things, but for $60 of macro attachments and a telephoto I'd say its pretty impressive.

Posted this before, but this is what I use

Interesting way of holding his legs together; never seen a spider do that.
