Iridescence along the River 4
August 3, 2018
The detail crops show more of what drew my eye. The puckering indicates loss of water from the film.

The closer you get the more interesting the images! Are these two separate photos or is the second an enlargement of the first?

The second is just a crop and enlargement of the first. I can’t get my long(ish) lens to work with my “new” camera, so until I do—or until I buy a replacement of some sort—the only way I can get closer is to crop.

I’m with Ken here. I wonder what happens when you get even more close; you might enter a new universe.. 🙂

OK, Harrie. For you I added a crop of the crop, but it’s not much different. The first crop was already pretty severe. I like the idea of new universes—if only I could get close enough . . .

Thanks, Linda! I like the one you’ve added. And yes, the closer you start, the deeper you can ‘get in’…

So I guess what we’re seeing – what I called “rays” in the last post and what you can see in the close-ups here – is shrinkage of the moisture from the films. maybe.
