I hope this is how a crosspost works. ๐Ÿ˜…

 

Watched this little fella during Hanami today.

 

It was bedtime but I wanted to take a quick snap without setting up the tripod. So I couldn't close the aperture in the dark.

What about Grayjay? Haven't seen that mentioned.

When I was 14 I played Ladder.

So no, not my favourite era for games.

Could also have been Miyajima.

What does it say in the original French version?

Reminds me of when people try to invalidate bar codes that way.

Then how do you explain the bottom side? (And that the rest of the spoon looks regular silver /gray)
Serious question.

Edit: okay, I found that it starts at yellowing through reds then blues towards black. Can the back side have anything to do with the aluminum sign that hangs below?
And I still find it weird that there's some kind of aura around the magnets contact area.

That would make sense. I searched for neodymium coating and found that they're often coated with Nickel-Copper-Nickel or Zinc. ๐Ÿค”

Why did it spread from the magnet?


Not sure what exactly that means.


There's another magnet below to hold the other metal sign. The stainless steel fridge looks fine.

I read everything. (Even changed to my mother tongue.)
Didn't find anything about interactions of different metals. It only said something about interactions of metals and non-metals.

Thanks for the link.

That just doesn't explain the reaction between the two metals.

silver needs hydrogen sulfide to tarnish, although it may tarnish with oxygen over time. It often appears as a dull, gray or black film or coating over metal.

Somehow the silver got colourful instead of the usual grey.

 

I have my late grandpa's silver spoon attached to my fridge with a neodymium magnet. What kind of chemical reaction causes that discolouration?

Lots of big black vehicles..
Those are the villains of this movie, right?

I didn't have a wide enough lens for the aurora yesterday. (20mm f1.8)

 

That was a nice encounter in Finland. (Dec. 2024)
