Happy Sunday Everyone 😊
So, I'm doing a thing - to try to get myself to take more pics and be a little more active in my stream here, I am doing a 30 day photo challenge for November. . . we will see how it goes 😊 Here is today's photo "Fav Fall Drink" and what you ask is my fav fall drink? Pumpkin Spice Latte, right there in that adorable cup and here is my most very favorite PSL recipe, try it, you will love it, I promise, no I pinky promise 😊💖
I make a huuuge pot so I have some for a few friends, or just for me for a few days.
I can organic pumpkin puree
4 tsp organic pumpkin spice mix
15 tbsp organic honey
8 tbsp vanilla
8 cups almond milk
8 tbsp organic coconut milk
1-2shots espresso
for garnish:
homemade whip cream
pumpkin spice mix (dash on top)
1. Heat up pumpkin puree with pumpkin pie spice in large saucepan or dutch oven over medium/low heat. Stir constantly for 3 minutes, until fragrant and cooked ( it will begin to smell like pumpkin pie!)
2. Stir in honey, mixing just until combined.
3. Pour in almond milk and coconut milk and simmer until warm (watch carefully that it doesn't boil over!) Remove from heat. Add in vanilla extract and whisk until light and frothy. 30 seconds to 1 minute.
4. Pour espresso or coffee in a mug, and add the pumpkin spiced milk, and top with whipped cream and a touch of pumpkin pie spice.
I hope you enjoy!
love, light and peace,
Nadia 💖
un altro esperimento, questo è un panorama multi-fuoco, ovvero lo scatto in basso a fuoco sul mare, lo scatto in alto a fuoco sul sole... sono un deviato?!

just another experiment, this is a multi-focus panorama, focusing the sea, at the bottom frame, and focusing the sun at the upper frame ... I'm sick?!
Having a play when out on a night shoot. this is 2shots stitched together taken with the 50mm lens. The sony 50mm never fails to impress me with how sharp it is.
This is a 2 shot panorama taken in Kananaskis Provincial Park, Alberta. The pond was just starting to freeze.

Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.
Großglockner Hochalpenstraße, Nationalpark Hohe Tauern, Austria
As we continued our drive up the mountains we passed by the Margaritzen reservoir far below. Margaritze, at 2,000 m, is a basin formed by a glacier and situated below the Pasterze Glacier, which has receded and left the Margaritze ice-free. The River Möll, which rises in this basin, has been dammed up to form the Margaritzen reservoir, from where water is drained off to Kaprun through the Möll tunnel.
In this shot, which is a pano of two HDR shots, Austria's highest mountain, the Großglockner would be on the right, but is hidden behind those ominous looking clouds.
Brickell Hammock, Miami, FL
Finally we got some clouds tonight and I just made it in time to catch the sunset on Virginia Key. On the way back I stopped at Hobie Beach Island Park to get a few shots of the Brickell skyline at low tide. I haven't seen such a low tide in quite a while (it's almost a years since I took this shot) and for a change it also wasn't windy resulting in some nice reflections in Biscyane Bay.
Downtown Miami, Shot from Watson Island, Miami, FL
Here is a pathetic attempt at some sort of a vertorama. I am still trying to figure out how to do that with a wide-angle lens and not having distortions messing things up.
I shot this from this from the sea wall on Watson Island, a place you are not supposed to be apparently. "This is trespassing!" Yes, security strikes again, not when I shot this but on Saturday, in the rain, when I went there with my friends... GIRLS, YOU MEAN TROUBLE!
I'll upload the 1001s skyline shot later, because for a change there are no cranes spoiling the skyline (well there are two, but they are not very obvious), can you believe that?
Explore/Interestingness: #41 on Wednesday, October 29, 2008 - Thank you, my friends.
I liked the flat parts of Yorkshire immediately to the south of York. It's a different landscape for me, the way you can see for miles and how sometimes the trees line up to give perspective.
And Happy Fence Friday!
... and not 100 miles away.
Little Maule Lake, Aventura, FL
I drove to Florida's west coast yesterday for a whole day of shooting including a nice sunset at Naples Pier.
And guess what? I didn't take a single shot the whole day and the sunset at the pier was a cloudless, boring, not-interesting-at all, not-worthy-to-take-photos-of sunset. I took a few there, but none look like much.
I still had a great time with my friends, though. I am wondering if they got any good sunset shots? They probably did, but by the time we got to the pier I was so not in a picture-taking-state-of-mind... maybe I should have eaten something, didn't have a bite all day (don't tell my Mom)... although I am not sure how low blood sugar would affect inspiration. :-\
And this shot I took today less than half a mile away just outside my apartment complex.
I went out one starlit night to photograph the two grain elevators at the edge of town. This is the older of the two, renovated a couple of years ago. For this image I made two separate exposures, defocussing on one, and then in Photoshop I added some gaussian blur to further fuzz the shot. Then I blended it with a tack sharp version until I had the effect I wanted. The light on the elevator is ambient, from village street lights.
It's a bit like an Orton image, the technique perfected a few decades ago by Mike Orton with slide film. He would shoot the same scene in and then out of focus, then sandwich the two slides in a single slide mount. The result was a slightly surreal view with a strange glow.

There are 2 typhoons forming and nearby Taiwan. However, the sky is not that clear for shooting. I stay at home to practice my newly learned panorama image merging skill.
今天傍晚臺北天空還是不美，我就待在家裡，練習剛剛學會的接全景技巧，希望下次在拍攝時，就能將全景的構圖一併考慮進去，我一向不喜歡將太陽放中間，但是接了全景後，不得已，還是有這樣放中央的狀況～

Green Cay Wetlands, Boynton Beach, FL
I had the pleasure to meet my Flickr friend Shamik (inanutshell) and Sandy at Green Cay Wetlands. We had a fantastic time.
Both were telling me they hadn’t seen a decent Florida sunset yet - yes I know the clouds can be a bit… umm… unpredictable – and it didn’t look too good, yet again. But we had fun nonetheless shooting and watching birds… and being entertained by Burt. It’s always nice meeting you, Burt, and it was also nice seeing you again, Apryl. :-)
And then, maybe 10-15 minutes after sunset, the sky started turning a pale orange, then a dark orange, then a dark pink, and then dark red… it was absolutely amazing.

Citylights Reflecting in Biscayne Bay
Shot from Watson Island, Miami, FL
While waiting for it to turn midnight and trying not to freeze to death there (I was only wearing a t-shirt after giving my jacket to Rachelle, she was shivering even more than I did) I decided to shoot another city pano. I just loved the colorful reflections in the water.
View from Hoher Krippenstein, Oberösterreich, Austria
Now back to Austria… I am hopscotching around between shots taken at different locations on different days so not to bore you (too much). I still have many more photos from the “Green Lake” and also “Gosau Lake”, Hallstatt, Graz… etc.
This was one of the shots I took after my parents and I decided to take the cable car up one of the mountains of the Dachstein massif, in fact we took two cable cars to get to the “Hoher Krippenstein” and after a short walk we were at the summit at over 6,900 ft looking down on the “Hallstätter See” and its surrounding mountains, most notably the “Hohe Sarstein” (6,480 ft) in the center of the shot. I took several shots from the edge. It doesn’t look too bad in my shots but it went straight down 1,200 ft just a few inches from where I was standing. Well, I had promised Steve not to stand in front of any moving trains this time, but I never said anything about edges and drops… ;-)
In the valley you can see the towns of Hallstatt (left) in Overtraun (center) where we stayed for two nights. In the original 21 MP shots you can even see the house we stayed at… crazy. Unfortunately I couldn’t stitch the original files but had to resize them to 50% and I resized the pano even further for upload. I left it a bit bigger, though, than I normally would do.

Near Oxbow Bend, Grand Teton National Park, WY
It was day 3 of our photo tour and we thought to pay Oxbow Bend another visit in the hope of getting some reflections and a clear view of Mount Moran. On the way there we briefly stopped before reaching the bend to shoot Mount Moran with the Aspen Trees in the foreground - at least I think those are Aspens.
This is a pano of two shots stitched together. I have to get a new stitching program as mine can't even handle two files taken with the 5D Mark II. Last year I thought it's the computer, but I don't think so - Win 7, 64-bit i7 processor and 8GB RAM should do the trick.

Burrowing Owl - Brian Piccolo Park, Hollywood, Florida
I had just dropped my brother off at the Port of Maimi for a cruise with his old schoolmates, and decided to bring my camera gear along so I could drop in on these Hollywood types on my way back to the Space Coast.
There was a junior soccer tournament the day I visited the park, so I looked for these guys away from the noise and traffic around the games. I was just about to give up on finding any out−n−about when I spotted a pair next to the baseball fields hunkered down in their hole. And to my amazement, rather than disappearing completely below ground, this guy hopped out of the hole to keep a close eye on me while his mate watched me from the burrow.
Note:
Ever wonder why so many of my pics
are cropped double-square?
Well, the reasons I like "Double Square" images are that double-square takes maximum advantage of wide-screen monitors while maintaining maximum detail that can be viewed at even higher resolutions by using Flickr's magnifying tool.
And, besides, I'm in pretty good company there,
since Van Gogh seemed to like it 2!
Sculpture by Anna Chromys 1999 located in the old town of Salzburg, 2shots combined in photoshop due to a lack of multiple light sources...
Well, sort of. The ultimate lens swapping has gotta be from a telescope primed back to a std lens. So the 2 small are from the 24-105 and the larger is from the 400mm scoped, but it was way too cold to attempt that. Scoped image blended in via PS.
When I went to bed there were a lot of clouds, but having set the alarm I was pleased to see a break (you can see some coverage in the lower half of the scene) so I grabbed a few shots at a little after full umbra while my fingers were still usable.
Happy Winter Solstice!
Two shots stitched side by side, taken with wide-angle adapter.

A section of the Thames barrier, which lies East of London, protecting the capital from flooding due to storm surges and exceptionally high tides.
It became operational in 1982 and has 10 steel gates that can be raised into position across the River Thames. When raised, the main gates stand as high as a five-storey building and as wide as the opening of Tower Bridge. Each main gate weighs 3,300 tonnes.
In the 1928 Thames flood, fourteen people died. After 307 people died in the UK in the North Sea flood of 1953, the issue of flooding gained new prominence.
It costs £16,000 (2008) to close the Thames Barrier on each occasion. The barrier was closed twice on 9 November 2007 after a storm surge in the North Sea which was compared to the one in 1953.
As well as the Thames Barrier, the smaller gates along the Thames Tideway include Barking Barrier, King George V Lock gate, Dartford Barrier and gates at Tilbury Docks and Canvey Island must also be closed. Once river navigation has been stopped and all subsidiary gates closed, then the Thames Barrier itself can be closed. The smaller gates are closed first, then the main navigable spans in succession. The gates remain closed until the tide downstream of the barrier falls to the same level as the water level upstream.

Long Pine Key, Everglades National Park, FL
Ivan and I went back to the lake this Saturday hoping for a better meaning a more colorful sky than we had a week ago when it was quite cloudy. We left at 4:30 am and had clear skies pretty much all the way down to ENP. Only when I started doing my long exposures to capture the starry sky I noticed the thin clouds that looked more like smoke trails than clouds.
As the early morning progressed we did get some reds, pinks and oranges in the sky, but they were very short-lived. And because there weren't too many clouds I decided to do a pano instead of shooting wide. It's just two shots because my old Autostitch doesn't really handle the big files from the 5D Mark II too well and I just don't do panos often enough to splurge on PTGui.

Anduve caminando por el centro de Lima, y me llamo la atencion la iluminacion del museo del BCR. Desde mi punto de vista tiene buena iluminacion.
Justo despues de haber hecho la toma, me encontre con mi amigo MANNOVER (Andre) y Edwin, quienes estaban tomando lo mismo jejejeje. Buena coincidencia.
Esta toma fue hecha con mi Nikon D100 (6Mp en raw) lente Nikkor 18-55, se usaron 2 tomas apaisajadas debido a que requeria alejarme mas del edificio y las uni finalmente con photomerge (photoshop).
***ENGLISH
The light of this museum building took my attention, that I couldnt resist to shot it.
This shot was taken with my old Nikon D100 (6mp) Nikkor lens 18-55 and it required 2shots in landscape, then blended with photomerge in photoshop
