Color RGB Tint Shade Tone - 200919Sa

  Color RGB Tint Shade Tone  
.
(ColorRgbTintShadeTone [2] based on an inspiration)
Version: 200919Sa
.
Until a few days ago I was sitting as an attendant with my niece during her online classes. I was not only enjoying those study sessions but was also revising my earlier school days. One day during online class session in drawing class teacher taught about colors, especially how tint and shade from any color can be made, giving practical examples. This was new to me so I also took keen interest in the class.
.
Drawing teacher was teaching that for making tint of any source color we mix source color with white color and for making shade of any source color we mix source color with black color. Tint is lighter then source color and shade is darker then source color. As much white color we mix with source color as much tint (lighter version of source color) we get. As much black color we mix with source color as much shade (darker version of source color) we get.
.
I am trying and making since around one year some interesting and simple computer educational games for my niece, based on her school lessons. This time also I made an idea of making a simple computer application for my niece so that she can play with colors, tints and shades. As a side effect and/or bonus I will also get opportunity to play with colors, tints and shades.
.
Application's user interface is simple and easy to understand. I named this application ColorRgbTintShadeTone. On the top left of the application are menu options and on the top right are toolbar options. At the bottom is status line and under it is progress bar. In between is the play area.
.
In play area Under Action column:
To the right of the RGB is the area for color selection via track bar.
To the right of the Tint is the area for Tint selection via track bar.
To the right of the Shade is the area for Shade selection via track bar.
To the right of the Tone is the area for Tone selection via track bar. (Not made yet).
.
In play area Under Value column:
To the right of RGB player can select respective values for Red, Green and/or Blue via menu.
To the right of Tint player can select Tint value via menu.
To the right of Shade player can select Shade value via menu.
To the right of Tone player can select Tone value via menu. (Not made yet).
.
In play area Under Parts column to the right of RGB, colors for Red, Green and Blue selections are displayed.
.
In play area Under View column:
To the right of RGB, Color made by Red, Green and Blue selection is displayed.
To the right of Tint, selected Tint of the color is displayed.
To the right of Shade, selected Shade of the color is displayed.
To the right of Tone, selected Tone of the color is displayed.
(Right now it displays random color).
.
Following are the photos/screenshots of the application I described above.

Application looks like this.

Bye bye Goldi FISHY - 200905Sa

  Bye bye Goldi FISHY  
.
(Photos taken by me on 2020 Sep 05 Sat)

.
We have a good looking aquarium since a few years which was brought by parents of my niece for turtle which we had during those times. Because I thought that the aquarium they brought was not fit for turtle so we ended up not keeping our turtle in that aquarium. .
.
But then parents of my niece brought a pair of good looking golden fish as a present for her birthday therefore that aquarium became home of small and beautiful fresh water fishes since then. We kept adding more fishes to that aquarium from time to time. Some time we had as many as around 10 fishes in that aquarium and some time as less as around 2 fishes. I do not know why but fishes kept dying in regular intervals although we do clean aquarium regularly and change it's entire water at the same time also..
.
I observed that almost on all of the times when our fishes died their body started floating at the surface of the water in the aquarium. A few days ago a beautiful colored golden fish from our aquarium died but it's body remained at the bottom of the aquarium. Before dyeing that fish kept swimming on or near the bottom of the aquarium for a few days as if she was having problem in swimming up wards.
.
For safety of other fishes in the aquarium I shifted the sik fish to another fish bowl. I kept observing that fish very closely and regularly as slowly, slowly she stopped moving and then become totally still and remained still for around a day. There was no movement of her gills as well.
.
Then I decided to remove that fish from the bowl I was keeping her since a few days. But before removing that beautiful golden fish from that bowl I took a few photos of her as a pictorial bookmark.
.
Following are the photos I took of above mentioned Golden fish using my mobile nokia c1-01.

Observing Grasshoppers - 200831Tu

  Observing Grasshoppers  
.
(Photos taken by me on 2020 Aug 31 Tue)
Version: 200831Tu
.
Every year after rains a lot of dragon-flies emerge from I do not know where and start flying on our neighboring plot. So since a few days I was telling my niece, who is studying in class-2, that I will capture dragon-fly for her to play and observe. Yesterday evening and today morning I and my niece tried to capture dragon-flies but as I silently walked near the place where dragon-flies were flying they moved away from me and out of my reach. After I found it a little impossible to capture dragon-flies I told my niece that I will try to capture grasshopper for her to play and observe.
.
By chance in the evening when I was going out of the TV-lounge of our home I found a grasshopper sitting on inside of the door of TV-lounge of our home. Quickly I remembered my promise I made with my niece so I went to my room picked an empty plastic box which I am keeping for this purpose and came back and captured that good looking grasshopper. After doing that when I went out of TV-lounge again I found an grasshopper sitting on the floor of car-park of our home. Again I went to my room picked another plastic box came back and captured that grasshopper which by this time had moved a little from the place where I had seen him previously. I took this second grasshopper in TV-lounge and put it in with the first grasshopper.
.
My niece was very jubilant on watching these two grasshoppers. Although she asked me why I captured these grasshoppers and not any dragon-flies she enjoyed observing them very much as they walked and hopped inside the box. Then she asked me to bring some leaves for grasshoppers to eat which I did. Plus I gave them pieces of some fruits as well. They took special interest in banana.
.
After playing with and observing the grasshoppers for some time my niece asked me to release them. I said OK. So I first took some photos of them and then we both went to lawn of our home where she released them. After that she kept observing there movement and when they flew away we came back inside of our home.
.
Following are the photos I took of above mentioned grasshoppers using my mobile nokia c1-01.

Money plants in our lawn - 200817Mo

  Money plants in our lawn  
.
(Photos taken by me on 2020 Aug 17 Mon)
Version: 200817Mo
.
Some years ago I made an idea of planting money plants in a lot of pots and arrange them together side by side in our lawn. So I started doing as I planned and planted one money plant cutting per pot. In a few weeks they all took roots and in some more weeks they started climbing the supporting branches I had fixed in the pot. Slowly and steady they all climbed to the top of the branch. They all together gave a pleasant and green and fresh look to the area where I had placed them. I take special care of them all and almost daily go to them for enjoying their look and feel and for checking for their health.
.
During monsoon of this year (2020) one day I observed that those money plants were looking very fresh and clean and wet and ready for some photo session. In one or two days, my idea of taking photos of those money plants became riper but problem was continuous rains. So on one afternoon as rain took rest for a while I quickly went to place where I had arranged money plant pots. Then I took some photos of money plants from different angles and quickly came back inside the home as rain was giving signs of starting again. I took these photos using my mobile nokia c1-01. After editing those photos of money plants, I uploaded them to different sites.
.
After a few days of above adventure I made another plan of taking photos of the same money plants with a better camera. So this time in one morning I again went to those money plants and took some photos of them. This time photo size and object details were far better.
.
Apart from these we also have other money plants in our lawn and they are all individually arranged between other plants to give contrast. I planted them all in pots of different sizes. In this post I am sharing only those pictures of the money plants that I have mentioned in the above paragraphs.
.
Money plant is also know as Araceae, Ceylon creeper, Epipremnum aureum, golden pothos, hunter's robe, ivy arum, popular houseplant, Pothos, silver vine, Solomon Islands ivy and taro vine.
.
Money plat is a popular houseplant and is commonly found in Pakistan, China, Bangladesh, Cook Islands, Fiji, Hainan, Hawaii, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Java, Maluku Islands, Marshall Islands, Mo'orea, Myanmar, New Caledonia, New Guinea, Nusa Tenggara, Palau, peninsular Malaysia, Philippines, Queensland, Sabah, Sarawak, Singapore, Solomon Islands, Sulawesi, Sumatra, Taiwan, Thailand, Tonga, Vanuatu, Vietnam and Western Samoa. etc.

Following are the photos I took of above mentioned money plants using better camera.
