I know this vicious minute’s hour;

It is a sour motion in the blood,

that, like a tree, has roots in you,

and buds in you.

 

Dylan Thomas

  

I am following the Igp 52 weeks project. A photo a week, with a theme, for one year.

 

Theme of this week: water .

 

The flowers come from my birthday's bouquet. The shot is dedicated to all the gorgeous girls who remembered my birtheday and sent their wishes to me: thanks a lot, Igpine!

 

Inspired by her :-)

Decided this would be a great place to explore, see how close to the bridge we could get. I was in awe standing under this giant structure, hope you enjoy the view too! Opinions of this one and how to improve it would be appreciated.

Schwarze Weintrauben im Reifezustand

This was a beautiful sunset at Cabo Rojo, in the Dominican Republic. The costline here is very impressive with it's textured cliffs, white sandy beaches and turquoise water.

I've been very busy lately, caught up with some obligations, I have not been able to visit your streams. I'll try to catch up with everyone as soon, as I can.

Hope everyone is doing great. Have a fantastic week ahead!

 

As always, thanks for stopping by and looking. I appreciate your comments and visits.

E' lui, il cigno nero dello stagno di Platamona (SS), il vero RE tra tutti gli altri volatili !

Back in October, I was gallivanting around the countryside when I happened across this restaurant called the Fishermen's Inn. I had planned on eating there someday so I was quite saddened to see that the doors were shuttered. I spent a few hours shooting there ... and I just realized that I had completely forgotten about that folder of images! A lot of really nice fall color in there. I think I'll dig them out when I get tired of winter!

 

I mention this because the photo above, of a snow-laden juniper branch, was photographed at the same location this past Saturday ... after our Friday snowstorm. I remembered the Fall shoot, and how much I loved the location ... remembered that bright red building ... all the wonderful ponds & fences ... and just knew that it would make a fine backdrop against the newly fallen snow. I wore my snow pants so I could frolic & wallow in the snow! It makes me laugh to think about someone trying to figure out what the heck was going on there by the tracks I left in the snow!!

 

And by the way? NO TRESPASSING signs are posted everywhere!!! Not a problem!

 

Seriously, this place is amazing ... and to see it closed is such a bummer. The entire 17-acre grounds, is decorated with nautical whimsy ... a striped lighthouse, a rowboat planted on its end in the grass, buoys, anchors and chains, gazebos, charming little arched bridges .... and really: a photographer's dream! I posted a few images in comments to give you a better sense of this beautiful place.

'Jacob Grimm wrote that by inscribing "aemaeth" upon the ancient Golem's brow, the clay man lived by drawing energy from the word for "truth". But simply removing the "ae" to form "maeth" or "death" returned the Golem back to inanimate clay.'

 

'Whereas NATO Golems turn to metal statues in death, spilling blood and oil onto the paving, right?'

 

'Right, though it takes a little more than harsh language. But the old AE Harpoons are perfect for that. The rocket doesn't penetrate that well-'

 

'snerk.'

 

'-but the ability to fire multiple shots overwhelms it with one clip. And Golem legs are under a lot of stress as it is.'

 

'And Golem jump packs are pretty flammable.'

 

'Got that right.'

This image was taken about 20 minutes after an earlier post, titled “Setting into the Mist”. Therefore, it seemed fitting to post this version as a part 2.

 

The mist had now completely engulfed the valley between my camera and Mt. Rainier. About 30 minutes after this image was captured you could have stood at this exact spot, and you would have seen absolutely nothing but mist.

I found this poem a few months ago - Folded, printed on mimeograph paper. It was tucked between the dog-eared pages of Shange's book. It is a book that I've had since grad school. I forgot how much I love the words, and they just seemed to fit...

 

Happy (abstract with heavy poetry) Fence Friday!

Tripod test: 45 second exposure with very strong wind after today's storm.

 

I was really lucky again - the blue sky came out for about 20 minutes - after that it began to hail...

  

I'm using the Haida 1000x ND filter. I had a B+W before, but it produced a strong red color cast and it cost 90€ with 77mm thread, compared to the 35€ i paid for the Haida, which produces far better colors.

Firstly, a very happy new years to everybody!!

 

Its great to be back on Flickr after a long break. I had a very eventful and exciting road trip across some of the most untouched parts of India. It was a great experience to say the least but our car broke down a couple of times and we wasted a lot of time trying to get the vehicle repaired. But on the whole, it was a fascinating journey and I will be sharing some of the picture with you in the coming days.

 

We ended our trip in Goa, which is arguably the party capital of India. We spent our new years eve with a bunch of friends in Goa before heading back home. The image you see if from the new years eve, the last sunset of the year 2011.

 

This is when we bid goodbyes to the year 2011 only to welcome the new year, which brings a lot of surprising and exciting times ahead of us.

 

Hope all of you have a wonderful year ahead, filled with joy and excitement. I will catchup with your streams today.

  

Thanks to all of you for your comments, favorites, invites and inspiration in 2011.

 

Wishing everyone all the best in 2012.

The Grossglockner High Alpine Road is a panoramic road in Austria. The most famous route through the Alps ends just before the jewel in the Hohe Tauern national park's crown: the highest mountain and the largest glacier in Austria, the Großglockner 3,798 m and its glacier, the Pasterze. You will have a driving and nature experience of a special kind on 48 kilometres of high alpine road with 36 bends, and an altitude ascent to 2,504 metres! You pass through a unique world of mountains with blossoming alpine meadows, fragrant mountain forests, massive cliffs and eternal ice to the foot of the Grossglockner, the Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe.

 

The Grossglockner high Alpine road in Austria is 48 kilometers of pure driving pleasure. The route is described in the brochure as a Bikers Heaven. The Großglockner Hochalpenstraße Road was built between 1930 and 1935, to fight unemployment and boost tourism in Salzburg. It is in within the Nationalpark Hohe Tauern. Closed in winter until end of October to beginning of May. Photo taken from the car park of the Edelweisspitze. A beautiful panoramic view on the Fuscher Törl, a 2428 meters high mountain pass.

 

De Großglockner Hochalpenstraße is één van de mooiste bergwegen ter wereld en zeker de moeite waard om te bezichtigen. Deze panoramische tolweg verbindt de deelstaat Salzburg met Karinthië. De 47,8 km lange weg leidt middenin het Hohe Tauern National Park naar de hoogste berg van Oostenrijk, de Großglockner 3.798m en zijn gletsjer, de Pasterze. De Pasterzegletsjer is wel 10 km lang en heeft een oppervlakte van bijna 20 m2. De Großglockner Alpenstraße voert je door een wild en rotsachtig landschap. Maar liefst 36 haarspeldbochten zorgen ervoor dat je uiteindelijk tot een hoogte van 2.504 meter stijgt. Tijdens de rit wordt je getrakteerd op adembenemende uitzichten. Ook kun je genieten van de aanblik van enkele honderden bergtoppen van boven de 3.000 meter. Onderweg op de Großglockner Alpenstraße kun je eventueel stoppen bij verschillende uitzichtplaatsen en informatiepunten. Voor kinderen zijn er speeltuintjes en ook is het mogelijk om in echte sneeuw te spelen. Er zijn tevens 2 kabelbanen die je de mogelijkheid bieden om nog meer van de mooie omgeving te bekijken.

This was the sunrise over Seattle this morning, my friends. It was one of the most phenomenal sunrises I had seen in months. You can see Mount Rainier, Washington State’s tallest mountain (and dormant volcano) that dominates the horizon on unbelievably clear days such as this one.

 

An impromptu decision to curtail my morning workout at the gym gave way to serendipity, which led me to capture this image today. If I had followed my regular routine this morning, I would have completely missed this.

 

This image was taken from the balcony of my apartment. Enjoy!

Here is another shot from our trip to the backwaters in Kerala. this is what people living in these areas see on a daily basis. The beautiful Sunset across the array of coconut tress makes for an enchanting scene and for me, a first time visitor to this part of the world, it was nothing less than magical.

 

On the technical front, I'm not completely happy with this image. The light was too harsh and was difficult to handle the exposure. This is the best I could achieve after processing it but some good GND filters would have made my life easier and I'm planning to invest in them something soon.

 

Have a wonderful day ahead, my friends.

When founded in 1781, the city you see here was coined “El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles”, or "The Town of Our Lady the Queen of the Angels”. It was a northern city of what was then known as “New Spain”, which is present-day Mexico. At the time of establishment by Los Pobladores (“the townspeople”), LA had an initial population of 48 people.

 

230 years later, that population is now 3.8 million. LA is the second largest city in the USA, and the 48th most populous city in the world.

 

New images of LA are now available in the “LATEST HITS” section of TIA’s official website.

ينتابني ذلك الشعور وبشششدة

شكراً إلهي

A temple snuck in at the junction of the hillsides. An oddment in Ladakh as there is no Hindu population large enough to build temples. You have Buddhists in majority and they have their monasteries to go to. There are few Moslems and that is all.

 

This is a temple located enroute to Pangongtso and lies at the base of the actual climb to the Changla Pass. The deft touch of hybrid construction and assimilation with Buddhism is all there to see. The prayer flags in red, yellow, blue and white fluttering briskly in the cold breeze are the visible hallmarks of Buddhist temples.

 

Peace and Prayers flow everywhere, religions are localized. These makeshift temples are courtsey the Army and there you have the Hindu population for you.
