This shot is mediocre and it could be sharper.. but it is fun to try something different once in a while.. I thought of Eric Clapton's "Tears in Heaven" hence, the title.. me and my puppy (Ysabelle) are perfectly happy with each other (minus the times when i lose sleep over her crying). 😅

Wishing you all a very wonderful day!!!
PS: I saw faces in the clouds - an animal with a pointy nose in the center one and a jolly old man in the right hand side, staring at each other (see notes)! 😁
PPS: "Pikachu, I See You!" joined in for the fun, maybe I should re-title it to "Three's A Cloud". 😝

Intro - My life motto: killing & action brings me great erection
I never lost my precious time on election
In the youth I had a dream
To become a star in a Major League Baseball
Life path bring me to other direction
And now I am stacked in this crappy doll
I can still play with baseball bat and a ball
I can kick some jerks while listening
Metallica album Kill ‘Em All
I am a ballbreaker
The mean pain maker, I am a soul taker
Hey bitch throw the pitch
Let the fun begin
In this game I would always win
I would never become a movie star
Like Pierce Brosnan in a James Bond
But I can hit my enemies harder
Than a baseball player Barry Bonds
Bloody Baseball bring me so much excitement
I can already see against me new brutal indictment
P.s. Chucky recommend you a classic song Babe Ruth - Mexican.

The morning 7th of February I woke up to see Amsterdam covered in a coat of fresh snow. The snow fell in sudden flurries and gusts and turned the world white and wonderful. With the canals in the city and occasional high winds, there can be a nip in the air, but packing gloves and a scarf should keep you warm enough. There is something very beautiful about Amsterdam in the winter. It snowed for the second time this winter in Amsterdam. Because the temperature was -4 degrees Celsius the snow stayed. The real feel temperature was -11 degrees Celsius cause there was a strong wind and drifting snow. It got more than a few centimeters of snow. The best advice is to stay indoors and turn the stove up a bit. Or of course to go outside to take some nice pictures. The snow is a rare highlight in these February dark days, especially when you have small children. It is quite difficult to come up with something fun in these Covid-19 lock-down days. After a while, sitting indoors becomes quite monotonous for such a toddler. This is a welcome change. The snow also provides a lot of fun for children here in centre of Amsterdam. Snowball fight, make snowmen or go sledding. All fun activities that children do in this beautiful snowy world.
Those who think away for a while can imagine themselves in Hendrick Avercamp's world today. As one of the first landscape painters of the 17th-century Dutch school, he specialized in painting the Netherlands in winter. Some 400 years on, our image of life in the harsh winters of the Golden Age is still dominated by Avercamp’s ice scenes with their splendid narrative details of couples skating, children pelting each other with snowballs and unwary individuals falling through the ice. The snow is during the lock-down days an uninhibited winter fun in the streets of Amsterdam. Since the first snow had stuck to the ground, the neighborhood has turned out for a carefree winter entertainment. The next days it will keep on snowing. Expected more than 17 cm snow in Amsterdam. Enjoy a thick layer of snow in your own neighborhood.
Vanmorgen 7 februari werd ik wakker en zag Amsterdam bedekt met een laag verse sneeuw. De sneeuw die vannacht viel bedekte de wereld om ons heen wit en prachtig. Ik heb mijn camera gepakt en op pad gegaan in m'n buurtje. Ik geniet van het geluid van knarsende sneeuw onder mijn schoenen en het prachtige gezicht op de Amsterdamse grachtenpanden. Het is min vier graden en het blijft vandaag de hele dag sneeuwen. Met een stevige wind is de gevoelstemperatuur zelf -11 graden. Mijn handschoenen en m'n sjaal houden mij warm genoeg. Er is iets heel moois over Amsterdam in de winter. Amsterdam is bedolven onder dik pak sneeuw zoals hierboven op het Weteringstraat. Het beste advies is dan maar om lekker binnen te blijven en de kachel iets hoger te zetten. Of natuurlijk even naar buiten te gaan om wat mooie plaatjes te schieten. In Amsterdam heeft het nu voor de tweede keer deze winter gesneeuwd. Bij deze temperatuur blijft de sneeuw liggen. Er is meer dan enkele centimeters sneeuw gevallen. De sneeuw is een zeldzaam hoogtepunt in deze donkere dagen in februari, vooral als je kleine kinderen hebt. Het is best moeilijk om iets leuks te bedenken in deze Covid-19 lockdown-dagen. Binnen zitten wordt na een tijdje behoorlijk eentonig voor zo'n peuter. Dit is een welkome afwisseling. De sneeuw zorgt ook voor veel plezier voor kinderen. Sneeuwballengevecht, sneeuwpoppen maken of sleetje rijden. Allemaal leuke activiteiten die kinderen doen in deze prachtige besneeuwde wereld. Wie even wegdenkt, waant zich vandaag in de wereld van Hendrick Avercamp. De komende dagen blijft het sneeuwen. Verwacht meer dan 17 cm sneeuw in Amsterdam.
I had so much fun with the one can for macro Mondays I figured why stop. Not constrained to the 3" rule I thought I could work with the whole can. Sourcing empty cans was easier than I thought, a quick walk along a back road provided all I needed. It seems that after consuming a can of this stuff, the arm goes into motion mode that inevitably leads to the can winding up on the side of the road.
Each can was shot individually with my Nikon 55mm f/2.8 NIKKOR Micro with about a 6 image focus stack. They do seem to have a lot of potential for art. Three cans, a wavy window and yummy glow colors make this slider complete!
Happy Slider Sunday - HSS
On rare occasions, I post black and white..and dry lands. Yes, I do not live near the sea..sadly.
This is the skyline of Metro Manila. The City of Manila is just one of the 16 cities that formally make up the metro. With 13 million population in a limited space, the metro is very dense and a breeding ground for the virus. And we are on a semi-lockdown again. Just like the picture, things are looking bleak.
I'll post a beach picture next time. Let us focus on things that make us happy 😊

Can you see the Little Egret up there in the willow tree ? The banks of the stream are so dense with vegetation I didn't see him (or her) until he flew up from the opposite bank. This is another one taken with my iPhone 11 while out on a morning walk with Marnie very recently.

Thanks for looking - and I hope the weather is nicer for you than it is for us here in the UK - rain, wind, flooding happening right now.
I hope you like this, anyway. Thanks for every view, comment, fave. All is appreciated very much.

Time’s marked and measured in different ways.
The colors of our lives were changing.
The vibrant greens of summer faded beneath the ever-varied canvas of sky,
replaced by the russet tones of autumn,
brown hues of harvest,
and blue-violet shades of indigo dye...

El Mirador Massue en la esquina de Talcahuano y Tucumán (building with red cupola).
The building popularly known as Mirador Massue is located on the corner of Talcahuano and Tucumán streets, in front of Plaza Lavalle in the city of Buenos Aires. Designed in 1903 as a rental apartment building for David Costaguta, in 1989 it was partially demolished and remodeled to transform its use into rental offices, with only its well-known viewing tower surviving. Its current official name is Edificio Tribunales Plaza.

Helgoland is a German island in the North Sea.Helgoland was established around 4000 BC. an island due to rising sea levels after the last ice age. The island was colonized from Friesland in the 8th century. The current residents still speak a North Frisian dialect, the Helgolands or Halunder Freesk. It was incorporated into the Viking Empire. In 1720 a sandbank between Helgoland and the smaller island of Düne largely washed away due to a storm tide. The connection between the two islands was lost as a result. Heligoland remained in Denmark until 1814. The British conquered the island in 1807 from the Danes. The strategically important island. In 1890 the British exchanged Helgoland on Germany for East African Zanzibar. Emperor Wilhelm II converted Helgoland into a naval support point and it remained that way until after the Second World War. In the First World War all residents were forced to leave the island. At the end of World War II, a thousand airplanes from the Royal Air Force carried out a destructive bombing, dropping around seven thousand bombs, making the island uninhabitable and the population to be evacuated. In 1952 the population was allowed to return after long insistence.
The Helgoland museum offers a rich overview as to the history, the folklore and the nature of the island. Helgolander Franz Schensky (1871-1957) is one of the pioneers of black and white photography and has a permanent place in the history of German photography. Franz Schensky has his own place at the Helgoland museum. With his photos he takes you into the breathtaking world of the beauty of the North Sea. View of the west coast of Helgoland with the lighthouse, and its original church, built in 1685 on the Oberland. On the right the lighthouse built under English rule in 1811, demolished soon after the new lighthouse was built in 1902. The latter was destroyed in 1945. Photograph of Franz Schensky c. 1895.
Helgoland is een Duits eiland in de Noordzee. Helgoland werd rond 4000 v.Chr. een eiland door het stijgen van de zeespiegel na de laatste ijstijd. In de 8e eeuw werd het eiland vanuit Friesland gekoloniseerd. De huidige bewoners spreken nog steeds een Noord-Fries dialect, het Helgolands of Halunder Freesk. Het werd ingelijfd bij het Vikingrijk. In 1720 spoelde een zandbank tussen Helgoland en het kleinere eiland Düne door een stormvloed grotendeels weg. De verbinding tussen de twee eilanden ging daardoor verloren. Helgoland bleef tot 1814 tot Denemarken behoren. De Britten veroverden het eiland in 1807 op de Denen. Het strategisch belangrijke eiland. In 1890 ruilde de Britten Helgoland aan Duitsland voor het Oost-Afrikaanse Zanzibar. Keizer Wilhelm II bouwde Helgoland uit tot marinesteunpunt en dat bleef het tot na de Tweede Wereldoorlog. In de Eerste Wereldoorlog werden alle bewoners gedwongen het eiland te verlaten. Op het einde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog voerden duizend vliegtuigen van de Royal Air Force een vernietigend bombardement uit, waarbij circa zevenduizend bommen werden afgeworpen, waardoor het eiland onbewoonbaar werd en de bevolking moest worden geëvacueerd. In 1952 mocht de bevolking na lang aandringen terugkeren. Sindsdien leeft het eiland hoofdzakelijk van het toerisme. Het Helgoland-museum biedt een rijk overzicht van de geschiedenis, de folklore en de aard van het eiland. Je kunt ook genieten van films. De geschiedenis is opwindend omdat Helgoland is beïnvloed door Deense, Britse en Duitse inzittenden. Helgolander Franz Schensky (1871-1957) is één van de pioniers van de zwart-wit fotografie en heeft een vaste plaats in de geschiedenis van de Duitse fotografie. Franz Schensky heeft zijn eigenplek in het Helgoland-museum. Met zijn foto's neemt hij je mee in de adembenemende wereld van de schoonheid van de Noordzee. Uitzicht op de westkust van Helgoland met de
de vuurtoren en originele kerk gebouwd in 1685. De vuurtoren is nog gebouwd onder Engels bewind in 1811, afgebroken kort nadat de nieuwe vuurtoren werd gebouwd in 1902. De laatste werd verwoest in 1945. Foto van Franz Schensky ca. 1895.

“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more”
― Lord Byron
apologies to my friends for i haven't been
around much this week,
been weathering a nasty stomach virus,
i promise to catch-up today!

At the gates of La Paz, the Valley of the Moon is a sort of desert of rocks sculpted by the elements, with lots of fairy chimneys.
The site is well laid out with trails on which we can discover this geological curiosity.

Tonight, we sleep in an Indian community on Lake Titicaca, we are at 3812 m (12507 ft) altitude .
A change of scenery guaranteed !
The comfort was rustic, and there was no heating to overcome the cold of the night at this altitude. But fortunately, big wool blankets locally made kept us warm.

Ce soir , nous dormons dans une communauté indienne au bord du lac Titicaca, on est à 3812 m d'altitude. Un dépaysement garanti !
Le confort était rustique, et il n'y avait pas de chauffage pour pallier au froid vif de la nuit à cette altitude.
Mais heureusement, de grosses couverture en laine faites sur place nous ont tenu bien chaud.

Crazy Tuesday: #NEW
Laowa C-Dreamer 7.5 F/2 | Photowalk with Sabine.R
Not taken this week, but I didn't get around to go out on a photowalk (ghastly weather, grey days, too) with my brand NEW ultra wide-angle lens, the Laowa C-Dreamer 7,5mm F/2. However, this one was taken with that new lens, so I hope it qualifies; I promise that I will take the capture in the week after a new theme will be announced the next time I participate :-)
Now for the title: You might wonder why I chose "Topless" as a title. Well, if you take a look at my capture of the Berliner Fernsehturm (Berlin TV Tower) taken from the platform of the Park Inn Hotel (please see first comment), and you take a closer look at the TV Tower's base in that capture, you will get an idea what this building is - yes, right: it's the TV Tower's base building complex which is used as an exhibition center ("Body Worlds", "Little BIG City"), it also houses restaurants and shops; the building on the right is the city hall of Berlin, known as Rotes Rathaus (Red City Hall). But where is the TV Tower? I seriously debated with myself whether I could actually dare to remove it from the capture or not. In the end I decided to upload the retouched version, as it gives the building a lighter, aerier look, almost that of a spaceship that has just landed. With the TV Tower (which you would normally see on the left upper corner behind the base building) it looked like a building on a stick from this point of view, and you wouldn't have seen much of the tower anyway. Please forgive my little Photoshop shenanigan :-) After all, photos don't lie, do they ;-) ?
And because two are always better than one, I would like to wish you all a very Happy 2019 once again, and a relaxed first week of January as well :-)
Oben ohne
Laowa C-Dreamer 7.5 F/2 | Fotowalk mit Sabine.R
Die Nicht-Berliner unter Euch werden sich vielleicht fragen, warum ich dieses Foto "Oben ohne" betitelt habe. Wenn Ihr Euch noch einmal mein Foto vom Berliner Fernsehturm anschaut, das ich von der Aussichtsplattform des Park Inns aufgenommen habe (im ersten Kommentar zu finden) und Euch dort einmal den Sockelbereich des Fernsehturms anschaut, könnt Ihr sehen, was dieses Gebäude ist - richtig: der Sockelkomplex des Berliner Fernsehturms. Der Komplex wird für Ausstellungen genutzt (u. a. "Körperwelten" und "Little BIG City"), er beherbergt außerdem Gastronomie und Läden; rechts vom Sockel ist das Berliner Rote Rathaus zu sehen. Aber wo ist der Turm? Eigentlich würdet Ihr ihn links hinter dem Sockelkomplex sehen. Ich habe lange darüber nachgedacht, ob ich ihn tatsächlich wegretouschieren soll oder nicht. Am Ende habe ich mich dafür entschieden. Aus dieser Perspektive sieht das Gebäude mit (ein ganz klein wenig) Turm wie ein Gebäude an einem Stock aus. Ohne den Turm wirkt es leichter, luftiger, fast wie ein Raumschiff, das gerade gelandet ist. Verzeiht mir meine kleine Photoshop-Schummelei. Fotos lügen doch nicht, oder ;-) ?
Und weil doppelt besser hält, möchte ich Euch an dieser Stelle auch noch einmal ein schönes neues Jahr und eine entspannte erste Januarwoche wünschen :-)
