I am very happy with the editing.
It's my first one in this colour.
I went to Filoli last week to see how the gardens were in August. They are thriving. I took this shot in the "cutting garden", which is their garden dedicated to growing flowers for the arrangements in the house. Filoli is an historic site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, located in Woodside, California and I am extremely lucky to live relatively close to it.
I hope everyone is enjoying their Wednesday.

While the rest of London rioted, I thought I'd show everyone a different side of the city. As it turns out, quite by accident. I was working late and came out around sunset. I had my camera and tripod with me, so thought I'd meander my way slowly to a tube station. I headed toward Westminster and aimed to get the Houses of Parliament. Again. By the time I'd gotten there, the sun had gone to low and all the clouds cleared up.
Not one to give up easily, I headed towards the bigest cloud formation I could see. This took me into St James's Park. Quite by happenstance I spied this quaint little cottage to which I'd never set eyes on before. "What a quaint little cottage! I've never set eyes on this before!" I said to myself. It reminded me of the gingerbread and cake cottage from Hansel and Gretel, the Brothers Grimm fairytale. "I shall take this photo!", I exclaimed out loud! Passing people stared at me like I was a lunatic. I can only assume the riots had made them jumpy.
I decided to process this to give it a more fairytale feel in keeping with my vision. This really deserves to be viewed large and black; it adds a lot, especially to this photo.
It turns out that this little place is the headquarters of the London Parks & Gardens Trust and was built in 1841 as a bird keeper's cottage. It sits upon Duck Island in the St James's Park Lake. At the end of the lake, where you can see the last remnants of the sunset, you can just make out Buckingham Palace.

La vida es un millón de momentos, los tienes de prisa se van.
Las horas nos escriben un cuento, tu boca que me pide más.
Hay mil historias detrás de un silencio, hay olas que se roba el mar.
Tu abrazo se consume en el tiempo, y en ti yo quiero descansar.
Hay noches de hielo, hay alas caídas. Llovizna en la acera, tu cara divina.
Si tuviera que elegir... te elegiría a ti besándome, cuidándome, sintiéndote.
Tan solo esos momentos, son los que guardo dentro.
La vida es un puñado de sueños, y besos en la oscuridad.
Velas que encienden un sentimiento y amores que renacerán.
Hay mil canciones detrás de un te quiero, ternura en un amanecer.
Luces que bajan cuando estás lejos y brillan porque has de volver.
Hay tardes de fuego, hay notas perdidas. Hay pétalos muertos, palabras vencidas.
Hay risas eternas, hay siestas contigo. Hay largos otoños, que hoy tienen abrigo. (NOEL SCHAJRIS )

Amanecer de hoy mismo en el monte Cayón-Infiesto-Piloña. Fue un amanecer muy extraño ya que la niebla no dejaba salir el sol, pero al final aunque ya muy alto y con bastante fuerza (por eso el salir quemado) apareció y nos dejo esta para mi maravilla vista, aunque por momentos la niebla lo hacía desaparecer de nuevo. Creo realmente que mereció la pena el madrugón que nos metimos

Frank had a tough night tonight. With seven other dogs in the house he has lots of playmates and gets worn out. He slipped off to our bedroom and was taking a nap when I finally caught up with him. He had had too much excitement for one day. Good night buddy !

Description :
Oslo, Norway: The suspect in Norway's twin attacks that killed at least 92 people says he acted alone, police said Sunday, after some witness accounts said a second gunman had taken part in a mass shooting.
But police are still trying to establish whether there was "one or several" shooters at Friday's attack on a Labour Party youth meeting on Utoeya island, northwest of Oslo, police commissioner Sveinung Sponheim told journalists.
Norway suspect 'deemed killings necessary'
A suspected right-wing fanatic accused of killing at least 92 people deemed his acts "atrocious" yet "necessary" as Norway mourned victims of the nation's worst attacks since World War Two.
Police were hunting on Sunday to see if a possible second gunman took part in the shooting massacre and bomb attack on Friday that traumatised a normally peaceful Nordic country.
Anders Behring Breivik comments
In his first comment via a lawyer since he was arrested, 32-year-old Norwegian Anders Behring Breivik expressed willingness to explain himself in court at a hearing likely to be held on Monday about extending protective custody.
"He has said that he believed the actions were atrocious, but that in his head they were necessary," lawyer Geir Lippestad told independent TV2 news.
Police said Breivik gave himself up after admitting to a massacre in which at least 85 people died, mostly young people attending a summer camp of the youth wing of Norway's ruling Labour Party on an idyllic island.
Breivik was also arrested for the bombing of Oslo's government district that killed seven people hours earlier. Norway's toughest sentence is 21 years in jail. Survivors, relatives of those killed and supporters planned a procession to mourn the dead at Sundvollen on Sunday, near the island where the massacre took place.
Police defend delays
The comments from Breivik came as reports said police arrived at the island massacre about an hour and a half after he first opened fire, slowed because they didn't have quick access to a helicopter and then couldn't find a boat to make their way to the scene just several hundred yards offshore.
Survivors of the shooting spree have described hiding and fleeing into the water to escape the gunman, but a police briefing Saturday detailed for the first time how long the terror lasted - and how long victims waited for help.
Manifesto and video against multiculturalism
King Harald would attend a service in Oslo cathedral, a few hundred metres (yards) from where a bomb devastated government buildings including the offices of Labour Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg.
Breivik hated "cultural marxists", wanted a "crusade" against the spread of Islam and liked guns and weightlifting, web postings, acquaintances and officials said.
A video posted to the YouTube website showed several pictures of Breivik, including one of him in a Navy Seal type scuba diving outfit pointing an automatic weapon. "Before we can start our crusade we must do our duty by decimating cultural marxism," said a caption under the video called "Knights Templar 2083" on the YouTube website, which took down the video on Saturday.
A Norwegian website provided a link to a 1,500 page electronic manifesto which says Breivik was the author. It was not possible to verify who posted the video or wrote the book.
"Once you decide to strike, it is better to kill too many than not enough, or you risk reducing the desired ideological impact of the strike," the book said.
Norway has traditionally been open to immigration, which has been criticised by the Progress Party, of which Breivik was for a short time a member. The Labour Party, whose youth camp Breivik attacked, has long been in favour of immigration.
About 100 people stood solemnly early on Sunday at a makeshift vigil near Oslo's main church, laying flowers and lighting candles. Soldiers with guns and wearing bullet-proof vests blocked streets leading to the government district.
"We are all in sorrow, everybody is scared," said Imran Shah, a Norwegian taxi driver of Pakistani heritage, as a light summer drizzle fell on unusually empty Oslo streets.
Some terrified survivors of the shooting rampage said bullets came from at least two sides. "We are not at all certain" about whether he acted alone, police chief Sveinung Sponheim said. "That is one of the things that the investigation will concentrate on."
Witnesses
Witnesses said the gunman, wearing a police uniform, was able to shoot unchallenged for a prolonged period. He picked off his victims on Utoeya island northwest of Oslo forcing youngsters to scatter in panic or to jump into the lake to swim for the mainland.
"I heard screams. I heard people begging for their lives and I heard shots. He just blew them away," Labour Party youth member Erik Kursetgjerde, 18, told Reuters.
"I was certain I was going to die," he said. "People ran everywhere. They panicked and climbed into trees. People got trampled."
Home-grown militant
The suspect, tall and blond, owned an organic farming company called Breivik Geofarm, which a supply firm said he had used to buy fertiliser -- possibly to make the Oslo bomb.
Home-grown anti-government militants have struck elsewhere in the past, notably in the United States, where Timothy McVeigh killed 168 people with a truck bomb in Oklahoma City in 1995.
The district attacked is the heart of power in Norway. But security is not tight in a country unused to such violence and better known for awarding the Nobel Peace Prize and mediating in conflicts, including the Middle East and Sri Lanka.

youtu.be/eRM1z-r3ekk "Malas compañías " Joan Manuel Serrat
Mi santa madre
me lo decía:
"cuídate mucho, Juanito,
de las malas compañías".
Por eso es que a mis amigos
los mido con vara rasa
y los tengo muy escogidos,
son lo mejor de cada casa.
Mis amigos son unos malhechores,
convictos de atrapar sueños al vuelo,
que aplauden cuando el sol se trepa al cielo
y me abren su corazón como las flores.
Mis amigos son sueños imprevistos
que buscan sus piedras filosofales,
rondando por sórdidos arrabales
donde bajan los dioses sin ser vistos.
Mis amigos son gente cumplidora
que acuden cuando saben que yo espero.
Si les roza la muerte disimulan.
Que pa' ellos la amistad es lo primero.
My sainted mother
me said:
"Take care, Juanito,
from bad company. "
That's why my friends
I measure with a rod of rasa
and I have very elect
are the best of each house.
My friends were criminals,
convicted of dreams caught on the fly
applauding when the sun climbs the sky
open your heart and I like flowers.
My friends are dreams unforeseen
seeking his philosopher's stone
hanging around seedy suburbs
where the gods come down without being seen.
My friends are people dutiful
who come when they know that I expect.
If death is rubbing the hide.
That pa 'them friendship comes first.

Today I digged out one of my old New York photos. New York is a great city. Much too great to be discovered in only 3 days.
There are some really pretty motives over there. If you want to see some really mind boggling New York shots go over to Philip Klinger. He did a great Job over there.
Besides I used a wicked processing on this image. I actually didn’t really know why I did it. But you might be wondering why the image looks a bit blurry even though you have the impression of sharp lines and clear parts. That is because I used the Orton Glow style in the beginning. All the things I did after the glow effect where based on it. I was too lazy to do it all over again. Somehow I like the effect because it makes the water in the upper right image golden shivering and it also amplifies the sunrays you can see in the clouds.
If you turn over to full size you can see the boundaries of my equipment. There are colourlines around the houses. This is because of the Tokina 12-24mm I used here. I am really waiting to have enough money to buy a nice D700 and a really good lens to get rid of these things I can’t really stop.
Also I am happy to see all the great photos on your streams. I am really comfortable with all the different styles I see there. As I am most of the time do City, B&W and symmetry photos I am really impressed by your landscape, flower, family, sports and lightpainting shots!
Have a great Sunday!

The Nazca Lines are a series of ancient geoglyphs located in the Nazca Desert in southern Peru. They were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994. The high, arid plateau stretches more than 80 kilometers (50 mi) between the towns of Nazca and Palpa on the Pampas de Jumana about 400 km south of Lima. Although some local geoglyphs resemble Paracas motifs, scholars believe the Nazca Lines were created by the Nazca culture between 400 and 650 AD. The hundreds of individual figures range in complexity from simple lines to stylized hummingbirds, spiders, monkeys, fish, sharks, orcas, llamas, and lizards.
The lines are shallow designs made in the ground by removing the ubiquitous reddish pebbles and uncovering the whitish ground beneath. Hundreds are simple lines or geometric shapes; more than seventy are designs of animal, bird, fish, or human figures. The largest figures are over 200 meters (660 ft.) across. Scholars differ in interpreting the purpose of the designs, but in general they ascribe religious significance to them.
The geometric ones could indicate the flow of water or be connected to rituals to summon water. The spiders, birds, and plants could be fertility symbols. Other possible explanations include: irrigation schemes or giant astronomical calendars.
Due to the dry, windless, and stable climate of the plateau and its isolation, for the most part the lines have been preserved. Extremely rare changes in weather may temporarily alter the general designs.
En el concejo de Cudillero, en el pueblo de Santa Marina, se encuentra una pequeña y recogida cala con forma de concha, poco conocida al estar cerca de la más turística y conocida playa del Silencio.

The thing I'm seeking for, is LIFE. We born, we love, we die. Is this life ? To me LIFE means the most beautiful and precious gift. Life has everything if you think positively; the color, dream, smile, happiness and above all here I chose the RHYTHM.
I've found the LIFE in the earth, in the clouds, in the air and inside her.

Spray Falls is one of several waterfalls in Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. The 70' waterfall plunges over the cliffs at Pictured Rocks and lands in Lake Superior. It took my wife and I about three hours to hike to this lookout of the falls , we stopped a couple of times for a drink and to take other photos.

Have fun, and enjoy your summer!!

I tried taking bubble pictures before, but had to re-take for Cliche Saturday Scavenger Hunt. Of course, I forgot how hard it is to get a closeup of a bubble. It keeps moving, so lens is confused about where to focus. And often, when bubble is perfectly in-focus, shutter refuses to work because lens "thinks" it is not done focusing yet. And when you are about to take a shot, bubble pops and you start all over. I seriously need to remember to buy glycerin next time - it supposed to make bubbles indestructible. Which is just another way to say "less fragile".
Another version is under the fold. And, it goes without saying, this is my "Bubbles" cliche category entry. HCS, everyone!
09:50 pm CEST -> Parece un buen día; las pocas personas que había estaban haciendo fotografías. Este vez una barra de nubes justo sobre el mar hicieron que el sol se metiera demasiada pronto. Sólo pude tirar 3 fotos antes de que se ocultara completamente, sin tiempo para montar filtros ni trípode. Al final no fue necesario.

I love getting shots tight against bridges with a wide-angle lens. I love the lines that it gives. Although Battersea Power Station isn't as well-known as the Houses of Parliament or as architecturally beautiful as St Paul's Cathedral, it is still an iconic landmark in London (albeit South London...).
I was going through shots from my photowalk with Murphyz and I asked on Twitter which shot I should put up. Without hesitation, Vulture Labs said Battersea Power Station. "Can't get enough of that building".
This shot was taken at around 23:00 hours on a Sunday night and used my remote shutter release for longish exposure of a minute. I like how, despite the light pollution, you can still make out stars. It's surprising how much they travel in this short amount of time! One of my favourite things about this image are the reflections of the lights across the Thames.
This looks much cooler when viewed in the lightbox. (Press L) (You can see so much more detail).
