The hill as seen over the River Cannich, Scottish Highlands.

A fair bit of cloud movement here so opted for a long exposure.

 

This gem is tucked in the the south west corner of St Mary le Strand church. It is a tight spiral, with very plain Portland stone treads.

The church was designed by James Gibbs and was built between 1714 and 1723. It was part of the Queen Anne Commission for Building Fifty New Churches.

Τα Κορέστεια είναι μια ιστορική περιοχή της Δυτικής Μακεδονίας. Πρόκειται για μια συστάδα ορεινών οικισμών (Άνω και Κάτω Κρανιώνα, Χάλαρα, Άνω και Κάτω Μελάς, Μακροχώρι, Μαυρόκαµπος, Άγιος Αντώνιος, Γάβρος) που παρουσιάζουν έντονο αρχιτεκτονικό και πολιτισμικό ενδιαφέρον. Η παραδοσιακή αρχιτεκτονική των χωριών είναι ιδιαίτερη για την περιοχή της Δυτικής Μακεδονίας. Τα παλαιά σπίτια είναι κατασκευασμένα με πλίνθους με κοκκινόχωμα και άχυρο, που δίνουν το κοκκινωπό χρώμα στο τοπίο της περιοχής. Ο τρόπος κατασκευής των σπιτιών διατηρήθηκε έως τα μέσα του 20ου αιώνα και έπειτα εγκαταλείφθηκε.

 

Korestia is a historic region of Western Macedonia in Greece. It’s a cluster of mountain villages (Ano and Kato Kranionas, Halara, Ano and Kato Melas, Makrochori, Mavrokampos, Agios Antonios, Gavros) exhibiting strong architectural and cultural interest. The traditional architecture of the villages is great for the region of Western Macedonia. Old houses are constructed with handmade bricks with red clay and straw, giving a reddish color to the landscape. The construction of the houses was maintained until the mid-20th century and then abandoned.

Autumn, Abraham Lake, Alberta, Canada

Magic happens at sunset on the flood plains of Chobe Park. The animals can almost hide in the encroaching darkness, but there is always a hint of their presence.

August means sunflower season and it's always great to spend some time amongst them feeling their warmth and wonder.

Nikon F2 / Kodachrome 64

Created for and inspired by jOe Vance aka oliver.odd in appreciation for his assistance admining "The Hypothetical Awards and associated groups"

 

jOe besides defying gravity, has been in the really secret service, a galactic explorer extraordinaire, a swashbuckling cape wearing chick magnet and has been known to be a danger to low flying aircraft from time to time.

 

In his spare time jOe profusely creates some of the most amazing eclectic art imaginable.

 

Mirror images abound combined with pointillism, melded geometrized abstractions, animals birds,and other species that Darwin could not have envisaged plus the odd trip to places totally of the map.

 

But wait there's more,but I suggest you take a look at jOe's amazing stream yourself ... word of warning though "you will never see things the same again"

Von dieser Anhöhe hat man einen schönen Blick in Richtung Süden gen Alpen.

In Real waren die Alpen gut zu erkennen, da dort auch die Sonne schien. Da der Himmel hier ziemlich trübe war, die Sonne aber trotzdem durch schien, hab ich mal eine Belichtungsreihe probiert.

Mit Lightroom zu einem HDR zusammen gefügt und in Photoshop einige störende Elemente entfernt.

Danach den Feinschliff mit ON1 Photo 10.

Perhaps another image which finds its beauty in B&W. The original green color was not a shade I was fond of! This was the parting glimpse I had of the beautiful canal that feeds into the lake of the backwaters. There are a few more images of the lake that are coming soon before we leave this beautiful place.

A brand new early autumn day at our local nature reserve. The stars are beginning to fade, one by one. I thought this scene so beautiful I made a panorama. I hope you like it too - I am so blessed living near this lovely place. All too soon autumn will turn to winter - so let's make the most of it !

Ein kurzer Lichtblick!

Ich habe sie gesehen - die Sonne! Nach einem grauen Tag heute hat sie sich kurz vor Sonnenuntergang am Himmel gezeigt - bevor die graue Wolkenwand sie wieder verschluckt hat. Hier ist sie - kurz vor ihrem Abschied :-)

After being in Tasmania for 10 days and nights we had a starry sky to shoot for a few hours

We arrived here about 11pm after capturing the sunset at Binalong Bay

I got up at 3am to capture this as I needed to wait for the Milkyway to position itself east/west over the Eddystone Point Lighthouse in the Bay of Fires .

There was suppose to be low level Aurora activity most of that week

I used the parking lights on my car to light the lighthouse

I probably should have still lightpainted the immediate foreground

The grounds here were full of wildlife including several wombats feeding on the fresh grass shoots

I went back for a quick sleep before sunrise only to wake to a windy and wet change , so I just got these shots

This is a seven shot stitch

A magnificent bull elk pauses as he is about to cross the deep water portion of the Snake River. Taken in Grand Teton National Park off of Oxbow Bend Road. I love how the early morning sun lights of the tips of his antlers and face.

 

Thanks so much for your views and comments!

I saw the early morning autumn sun shining on this birdhouse... It was just calling to be photographed... I stopped... I obeyed.
