One of those shots where if I managed to take two steps to the left the composition would have been perfect, unfortunately I was standing right of the edge of the loch as it was. I think it looks good in black and white to emphasise the mist and contrast with the trees in the distance.
des pas sur la neige Debussy ( by Michelangeli )
The sixth of Claude Debussy's first set of preludes for piano evokes a stark, glacial landscape of resigned sadness and solitude.

Have a nice weekend!
'Het Speulderbos' is called ' the forest of the dancing trees'. The forest is not just mysterious, it is also very rare. It's a paradise for birds (of prey), deer, badgers and wild boars.
A day to rejoice in the splendor of all living things. Each and every one of them is a gift that cannot be replaced.
May your day be blessed. Merry Christmas everyone.

Christmas is less than a fortnight away and nature here in Ostwestfalen is like early Spring. We used Sunday afternoon for an extended hiking tour around home waters of the river Werre in the Löhne area.

Located in Brazil, Mato Grosso do Sul state, there is an enchanting river called Rio da Prata (something like silver river in english), which is surrounded by amazing farms and nature reserves in its entire extension.

Thanks so much all My Flickr Friends The Comments & Faves..... ;-)
As you can see on the picture in the first comment Cortez is very skinny, but the good news is he doesnot need insuline anymore since september 2016. And he still is doing well. Allthough he sleeps more, his appetite is good and he still can jump on the kitchen counter to see if their is some food left.

..of the Wittekindsweg you find the Margerethenkapelle. October waved goodby with sunshine and warm tempereratures and we used the perfect weather for an extended hiking tour on the Wittedindsweg, a crest trail on the Wiehengebirge from Porta Westfalica in the East to the Osnabrück area in the West. Before the sun went down we visited the most interesting spots of the Eastern part of the trail.
This is another view of Beaver Dam, a little further north from the previous scenes. There's a very nice park here. Wish I had captured this at sunset...but still a very pretty scene. Hope you enjoy!

FRIENDLY CHALLENGES, won challenge, 050726
A baseball settles into the stitched webbing of a leather ball glove as a catch is made. Unfortunately, I forgot to clean up the baseball before the shot, so you see a bit of dirt smudge on it... Oh well, I kinda like 'em that way, as it shows that they've been used. :-)
Done for Macro Mondays: Stitch theme
An interesting aside about stitches: When Major League Baseball's Chicago Cubs won the World Series earlier this month, it had been 108 years since they last won the championship. A baseball: it has 108 stitches. Coincidence? I hope so, because I don't have time to wait another 108 years for the next championship... :-)
Just home from a sweeping tour of the Southwest. We had done the big stuff on many previous trips, so this time was kind-of the leftover trip. We did less-popular sites like this one, Valley of Fire. Ok, that may not seem like a B-class location, but its one we blew off time and time again. Not this time. I think the overall theme of the trip quickly the underestimated underdog trip. We were very impressed by most of the sites we went to (except Petroglyph National Monument, yuk). This is an iconic part of the Valley of Fire called the Fire Wave. We had to go early to get the place to ourselves. I also wanted to assure I had some shadows, the noon-day sun is not very flattering here.
I wanted to try to use a strong leading line by using the shape of the rocks to put you into the wave. This is actually 32 blended images, its focus stacked and exposure blended. Took some time for sure.
I was planning to do a night image here also, but they close the park after dusk. Why do some parks brag that they are dark sky friendly and then lock you out at night? Stop saying you are dark sky friendly!
Let me know what you think.
Color Efex's Black and white Solarizarion + light toning
The original image was taken in the afternoon. The buildings in the background were blurry (on purpose, I was aware that the train was moving), and the background was dark red with greenish areas. Rails were brown and fuzzy.
My first attempt was to turn it to black and white. Rails were nicer but building were quite white and blurry.
I accidentally applied Solarization to the color image and the result was quite nice. It looks very dramatic, like Film Noir. Solarization provides a much nicer mysterious background and floods rails and seat with light.

It was windy, wet and cold, but me and my doggie went out for a walk on the beach. I'm so happy we did!
Looks like there was a second one forming on the left, but unfortunately it did not.
