La segunda de la serie, no se puede disfrutar más haciendo fotos que aquella tarde,la marea perfecta,un cielo jaspeado de nubes y el sol intentando hacerse paso por entre ellas.Son de esos días que sabes que no puedes fallar,así que allí me veis a mí con mi habitual flujo de trabajo "ordenadito" y "limpio" (juas!!!) intentando subirme a la piedra más alta para tener una perspectiva que me permitiera mostraros lo que alli aconteció.Esta se la dedico a mi amiga Sonia,por su generosidad en regalarme este bonito título que tan bien casa con lo que sentí.
-TÉCNICA: Como en la anterior de la serie ,ND 64 + degradado inverso Hi Tech de dos pasos + Black Card.No me extenderé en como use la tarjeta pues el método es el mismo que usé anteriormente,en este caso como el reflejo ocupaba más espacio en el encuadre, desplacé la tarjeta e introduje varias veces una de las esquinas para tapar la zona inferior izquierda y evitar el "quemado".
Los datos exif los podreis encontrar en la WEB.
-COMPOSICIÓN: El protagonista de la imagen es la luz que acompaña a la escena,las lineas que marcan una clara dirección hacia el horizonte se ven reforzadas por una luz a 45º que revela volúmenes y enfacita texturas creando , a mi modo de ver , una bonita atmósfera.Los dorados del sol contrastan con el resto de tonos frios de la escena.
-EDICIÓN: En el DPP de Canon,corregir horizonte,balance de blancos auto,curvas para mejorar el contraste general.En PS contraste por zonas,capa saturación (esta va por ti Jose Luis....duplico capa-ajustes-saturación (aquí a gusto del consumidor,general ,un sólo tono...)-filtro ruido-mediana (3)-desenfoque gausiano (5)-acoplar capa -modo color-y aquí jugamos con la opacidad de la capa .Si no te quedó claro te lo vuelvo a contar ;)) tus deseos son ordenes para mi ji ji ji .Por último ligero enfoque para la web.
A partir de hoy también podreis encontrar mis imágenes en linkingoo.

La playa de la Pared es una lección de geología en vivo. Las montañas que respaldan su arena dorada han sido erosionadas por la acción del viento, de gran potencia en esta zona de Fuerteventura, lo que convierte la playa en un paraíso para los surferos y demás cabalgadores de las olas.

The beach of the Wall is a lesson of live geology. The mountains that endorse his golden sand have been eroded by the action of the wind, of great power in this Fuerteventura's zone, which turns the beach into a paradise for the surferos and other horsemen of the waves.

I actually wanted to upload another shot of the huge miners lamp from my last upload, but the weather was great last night to get out and play with some light painting. I was inspired by some shots of Vicki Tate who gave me some advice how to do shots like this. I think for my first try the result is not that bad :)
Have a wonderful weekend every one!
This weekend I had the pleasure of catching up with Paul C Stokes, Martin Turner and The Green Album for some photography. First off we started off shooting in Bristol but after an hour or so we made it over to Weston-Super-Mare to catch a sunset. There were some very nice looking clouds in the sky and I was really looking forward to grabbing a rare sunset picture to add to my collection; unfortunately it was low tide so there wasn’t the opportunity to get a perfect reflection of the pier but I decided to try and see what the wet sand would offer.
Many thanks very much guys for driving me around!!!
I’ve got a few more pictures to go through but after a long journey home, the travelling has finally caught up with me, so I’ll have to take a look at these later in the week.
Have a great evening all and I’ll catch up with you guys tomorrow :-)

Quick candid shot of a Venetian local enjoying his Sunday paper in a strong winter sun, with fashionably attired dogs in attendance.
Hope everyone is having a fantastic week!
Digging through my archives, I found this image. This was shot in Subic Bay, Olongapo City, Philippines and this location used to be the biggest overseas US Naval Base until its closure in 1991. There are more interesting spots to shoot in this location and I know I will be back. However, the question is when?
Have a nice Wednesday to all! :)

Here is a view of Seattle’s Public Library in downtown. Alongside the Space Needle and Pike Place Market, the downtown branch of the city’s public library system is also a well-known landmark and attraction -- both its exterior and interior -- especially for photographers! Fortunately, I had my ultra-wide angle lens to capture the entire building in this instance, taken during the city’s “Fog Affair” of late January. This was on a Saturday morning, when the city was still in slumber with very few people walking the streets of downtown.
Given the fog cover and emptiness, the downtown area actually seemed abandoned to some degree, except the occasional taxi or automobile that passed by, driving through a modern-day twilight zone and serving as a reminder of the existence of other people.

I went back and reprocessed the source files for this image, this time using the 32-bit HDR Pro engine/feature in Photoshop CS6. One of the biggest differences I noticed when comparing the CS6 method with Photomatix (my normal process) is that the CS6 process results in much less noise. It's pretty amazing, actually. The other noticeable difference is that I think the CS6 version results in a more subtle and more easily fine-tuned image. Of course, that comes at a cost. As I've already mentioned in a previous posting, the resulting TIFF files using the CS6 method are twice the size. In my case that means almost a half gigabyte file. Ouch.
On a related note, I finally decided to pull the trigger on an high-performance external storage system. My new Drobo box and drives should be arriving on Wednesday. I'm looking forward to a much quicker and less frustrating photo processing and archiving workload.
The other thing that's going to help me with my photo storage is a set of neutral density filters that I have ordered. I love doing HDR, but I also want to start to even out the light in a scene using filters rather than tonemapping in software. Using filters will mean fewer photos to move and store because where I now take five to seven bracketed shots per image, with filters I should only one shot per image. The filters should arrive in the next few weeks and (fingers crossed) the lens should be as well.

Six miles high! You can see the snowdrift being carried off the top of Annapurna South and the main peak, Annapurna I, by the hurricane force winds of the jet stream. Annapurna I looks like its a part of the "South" peak but they are separated by a deep valley. Annapurna I is about 800 meters higher and set further back, hence appears level and connected with Annapurna South.
I love it when I'm out shooting and something like this happens.

Getting a full moonrise over Yosemite Valley had been on my bucket list but had eluded me for some time. My original plan for the day was to shoot the full moon rising over the Painted Ladies with the San Francisco skyline during blue hour. However, the forecasted clearing storm in Yosemite was too promising to pass up.
While shooting sunset at Tunnel View, I was so engulfed watching the epic conditions unfold I nearly forgot about the moonrise. Once the sunset show was over, all the photographers began chattering about the impending full moon rise.
Somehow, no one seemed to know where or when exactly the moonrise was to occur. Figuring that we had already driven 4 hours to Yosemite, Alan, Aaron, and I decided to wait it out. Twilight began kicking in and all of a sudden, the moon appeared on the horizon north of Cloud’s Rest. At that moment, the entire crowd of photographers flocked southward at the Tunnel View overlook.
Initially I focused on shooting the moon using my tele lens in hopes of getting a giant moon framed with Half Dome. However, the moon’s position had too much spread from Half Dome and the wider angle shot seemed more optimal. For my last shot, I threw on my 24-70 lens for a midrange shot with hopes of a light star from the moon. I really did not expect much out of the shot but was pleasantly surprised with the result. It was an evening worthy to remember: an epic sunset followed by a full moon rise over Yosemite Valley.

From my sons I've got a GPS tagger as Christmas present. Since 2 years I wanted to buy one but I never knew which one I should take. Therefore I'm really happy about this gift!
These days I have tested the tagger and have tried it first in my neighborhood in the late afternoon. The tagger works very well and is easy to handle.
I've taken the shot above during this test walk ... nothing spectacular but I like it somehow and on the left you can see my beloved walnut tree.

After I got off of work yesterday I quickly made my way out to the coast to try to catch what seemed to be shaping up to be a really killer sunset. I had plans to get farther south than this spot (San Gregorio), but there road to the coast is one lane in each direction...and I got stuck behind a big slow truck. Once I hit the coast road, I tried to hurry to get as far south as I could, but by the time I hit San Gregorio I could see the sun was quickly taking a nosedive over the horizon. Not a problem - San Gregorio State Beach is a great spot in its own right. Due to storms and unusually high tides a few weeks ago, there was A TON of wood debris on the beach. In fact, getting to the beach itself meant climbing over much of this debris.
It wasn't a super colorful sunset, but I loved the way the thick clouds broke in spots to allow rays of golden light to shine through. And the ocean looked a bit angry, so I quickly ditched the idea of taking HDR shots and instead set out to capture the drama shaping up in the sky and the ocean.
I'd like to thank the flock of seagulls for being in the perfect spot to be included in the photograph. How considerate!

It took about twenty minutes in the middle of the night to set up in the middle of a wintery pool, wellies full of water by the end of it. Five minutes later my flash, which I'd brought out solely to test, stopped working... If anyone knows about fixing Metz flashes, please message me! It still makes noises, and the button glows, it just doesn't flash. In this case "two out of three ain't bad" ceases to apply.
Anyway, having set up I figured I'd just trying gelling my flashlight/torch instead, and ended up with a shot I'm happy with and some neat lessons around lighting a scene.
Lighting is from a Lenser MT7 flashlight - first with a turquoise gel beneath the water (in a zip lock freezer bag), then with an amber gel aimed along the wall from the right, and vertically down on the scene from the top of the wall. I've included a flat white lit shot of the scene in the comments so you can see how it transformed things - without the lighting, this was pitch black bar a tiny sliver of moonlight on grey rock and brown water.
More to follow from the location in future. Hope every one is having an amazing Christmas/holiday run.
A Ponte Presidente Costa e Silva, popularmente conhecida como Ponte Rio-Niterói, localiza-se na baía de Guanabara, estado do Rio de Janeiro, no Brasil, e liga o município do Rio de Janeiro ao município de Niterói.
O conceito de seu projeto remonta a 1875, visando a ligação entre os dois centros urbanos vizinhos, separados pela baía de Guanabara ou por uma viagem terrestre de mais de 100 km, que passava pelo município de Magé. À época havia sido concebida a construção de uma ponte e, posteriormente, de um túnel.
Entretanto, somente no século XX, em 1963, foi criado um grupo de trabalho para estudar um projeto para a construção de uma via rodoviária. Em 29 de dezembro de 1965, uma comissão executiva foi formada para cuidar do projeto definitivo de construção de uma ponte.
O Presidente Costa e Silva assinou decreto em 23 de agosto de 1968, autorizando o projeto de construção da ponte, idealizado por Mário Andreazza, então Ministro dos Transportes, sob a gestão de quem a ponte foi iniciada e concluída.
A obra teve início, simbolicamente, em 9 de novembro de 1968, com a presença da Rainha da Grã-Bretanha, Elizabeth II e de Sua Alteza Real, o Príncipe Filipe, Duque de Edimburgo, ao lado do ministro Mário Andreazza. As obras tiveram início em janeiro de 1969.
O banco responsável por parte do financiamento da obra foi N M Rothschild & Sons. Não foi permitida a participação única de empresas inglesas no processo de licitação da fabricação dos vãos principais de aço. Para concretizar a realização da obra, o Ministro da Fazenda, Delfim Neto, o engenheiro Eliseu Resende e a Rotschild & Sons assinaram, em Londres, um documento que assegurava o fornecimento de estruturas de aço, com um comprimento de 848m, incluindo os vãos de 200m+300m+200m e dois trechos adicionais de 74m, e um empréstimo de, aproximadamente, US$ 22 milhões com bancos britânicos. O valor destinava-se a despesas com outros serviços da ponte, totalizando NCr$ 113.951.370,00. O preço final da obra foi avaliado em NCr$ 289.683.970,00, com a diferença paga pela emissão de Obrigações Reajustáveis do Tesouro Nacional. Em 1971, o contrato de licitação para construção da obra foi rescindido devido a atraso nas obras, e a construção passou a ser feita por um novo consórcio das construtoras Camargo Correa, Mendes Junior e Construtora Rabello designado Consórcio Construtor Guanabara, sendo concluído três anos depois.
Extensão: 13,29 km (8,26 mi);
Inauguração: 1974
Limite norte: Av. do Contorno em Niterói, RJ
Limite sul: Av. Brasil no Rio de Janeiro, RJ
Concessão: CCR Ponte norte
> Trânsito sobre a Ponte
A ligação rodoviária foi entregue em 4 de março de 1974, com extensão total de 13,29 km, dos quais 8,83 km são sobre a água, e 72 m de altura em seu ponto mais alto, e com previsão de um volume diário de 4.868 caminhões, 1.795 ônibus e 9.202 automóveis, totalizando 15.865 veículos. Atualmente é considerada a maior ponte, em concreto protendido, do hemisfério sul e atualmente é a sexta maior ponte do mundo. No ano em que foi concluída, era a segunda maior ponte do mundo, perdendo apenas para a Causeway do lago Pontchartrain nos Estados Unidos. Ela continuou no posto de segunda maior ponte do mundo até 1985 quando foi concluída a Ponte Penang na Malásia. Na época de sua construção a sua travessia era gratuita, não existindo a cobrança de pedágio, implantado anos depois. a promessa era que o investimento fosse quitado por recursos obtidos do pedágio num prazo de oito anos, mas que o usuário deveria continuar a pagar o valor após a liquidação da dívida do Estado. Ao ser inaugurada, o pedágio da ponte custava Cr$ 2,00 para motocicletas; Cr$ 10,00 para carros de passeio, Cr$ 20,00 para caminhões, ônibus e caminhões com três eixos e rodagem dupla Cr$ 40,00, e Cr$ 70,00 para os caminhões com seis eixos e rodagem dupla.
Em 1995 foi feita uma concorrência para concessão da administração da ponte para a iniciativa privada, que foi vencida pelo consórcio Ponte S/A, atualmente, empresa do Sistema CCR.
Cinco operários morreram durante a construção do vão central da ponte, devido à altura em relação ao nível do mar.
> Projeto
O projeto da ponte Rio Niterói foi preparado por um consórcio de duas empresas. A firma Noronha Engenharia, sediada no Rio de Janeiro, preparou o projeto dos acessos no Rio de Janeiro e em Niterói, assim como a ponte de concreto sobre o mar. A firma Howard, Needles, Tammen and Bergendorf, dos EUA, projetou o trecho dos vãos principais em estrutura de aço, incluindo as fundações e os pilares.
Os engenheiros responsáveis pelo projeto da ponte de concreto foram Antônio Alves de Noronha Filho e Benjamin Ernani Diaz[1] e o engenheiro responsável pela ponte de aço foi o americano James Graham.
> Construção
O canteiro principal da Ponte Rio de Niterói do Consórcio Construtor Guanabara se localizava na Ilha do Fundão, pertencente à Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. Havia, também, canteiros secundários em Niterói. As firmas executoras da superestrutura em aço foram Dormann & Long, Cleveland Bridge e Montreal Engenharia. A estrutura foi toda fabricada na Inglaterra em módulos, que chegaram ao Brasil por transporte marítimo.
A fabricação final da ponte de aço, com os elementos pré-soldados da Inglaterra, foi feita na Ilha do Caju, na Baia de Guanabara. A montagem das vigas de aço também foi feita pelas mesmas firmas fabricantes da estrutura.
