I haven't done a bench shot in awhile ... so when I'm with the girls, I always try to grab a few for later! I had a lot of fun chauffeuring Rachel around San Diego and surrounding hamlets ... showing her what she could do, where she go, etc.
At sunset, our path put us near Carlsbad State Beach. We hopped up on the sea wall and enjoyed a gorgeous sunset ... and of course this bench shot! Loved the couple walking together, hand-in-hand and the fabulous sun flare! This looks much better in the lightbox!!
Happy Bench Monday!
I may have said it once or twice about photos in the past, but if you don't hit 'L" and see this a bit bigger on black you're not really getting the full blast, actually what i should do is deliver a 12 foot canvas to each and every viewer to really appreciate it, but logistically speaking it might just be easier if you all went to Cornwall and found yourself a big empty beach instead?
Slightly insane in the membrane here this morning, the colic thing isn't going away yet despite the millions of wonderful suggestions for which we are very grateful. Actually we're still working our way through the ideas, but i can report that white noise (in various shapes and forms from iphone apps to hair-dryers) can be a useful distraction at times and that infacol, dentinox and colief don't seem to be making much difference at all except for demonstrating how pharmaceutical companies can charge a surprisingly large amount of money for such tiny bottles of stuff.
We've also had a recommendation to try out cranial oestheopathy, and might just give it a go, although the sceptic in me immediately looked it up and found it referenced on badscience.net and wikipedia as having no proven basis in medicine, there is a ton of anecdotal evidence out there from parents who swear it worked for them, and at this stage, thats good enough for me to want to try it.

Another one from the archives - Tanzania, 2009. The original is in the comments and it speaks for itself. This part of the Indian Ocean is right in the downtown of Dar es Salaam, near business district. If my office window was facing the view like that, I wouldn't be able to get any work done. But, luckily, it is facing a boring parking lot, so I am good for now. HSS everyone!

Storia di una lacrima
.
Da un ricordo, una emozione nacque lei,
un flebile pianto, è ai suoi occhi si affacciò.
Trasparente scivolò è lentamente venne giù
sul quel tenero viso per poi volare via con il vento.
Fra le nuvole immense si liberò, con le stagioni
sopra i monti, la vita…. in fretta la cambiò,
adesso trasparente non è più, soffice, leggera
fra le nuvole con la rugiada si sposò.
Ora il vento soffia, sussurra, le dice di
quell’amore intenso, che nascere la fu.
Ma niente amore o sentimento con lei c’è più,
niente più ricordi oramai, è nel cielo, libera, lassù.
Non ascolta più, sola è li più in alto nel sole,
lei libera vola, nell’infinito e immenso blu.
Ma non sfuggire al sole può, come rugiada viene giù,
lentamente muore, fra le grida di flebili e lontane emozioni.
.........................................................................................Luigi Mirto

Story of a tear
.
From a memory, ... an emotion. she was born,
a plaintive cry, .... has appeared in his eyes.
Transparent slipped and came down slowly
on that tender face and then fly away with the wind.
Among the immense clouds broke free, with the seasons
above the mountains, life .... hastily changed,
now no longer transparent, soft, light
the clouds joined with the dew.
Now the wind is blowing, whispering, tells of
the intense love, that made her birth.
But no love or feeling with her no more,
nothing more than memories now, is in the sky, free, there.
Do not listen to more, only is there higher up in the sun,
she flies freely, immense and infinite blue.
But can not escape the sun, like the dew comes down,
....... slowly dies, between the faint and distant cry of emotion.

I really needed to upload this shot...
The weather today in fact is cold, windy, rainy and foggy a rare combination of events for our usually "Sunny Sicily". Weather forecasts actually show that in a couple of days should snow quite a bit....
Only two days ago instead was like in this capture! Go figure.....
Through my friend Iris (eyewrisz) words:
if this is feeling blue
i want to feel it too
color is astounding on petal ribbons all curled
a welcome sight in this complicated world
Iris, the day that you'll get bored and won't write these little gems for my shots anymore, I think I'll stop posting.....You are way too good with me!

This week I'm the featured photographer of the Group: The World Through My Eyes. Have a look: www.flickr.com/groups/the_world_through_my_eyes/discuss/7...

Cales Coves has a small coarse beach reached by a short walk down a steep sided limestone gorge. It has two small beaches. Access is from the road between Cala’n Porter and Sant Climent but be warned! The road down to Cales Coves is about 1.5 km long and very bumpy. It is worth the 10-15 minute drive though, as you will discover once you arrive at the small parking area. Apart from the beautiful bays at Cales Coves you will also discover a few fascinating burial caves with its necropolis from 9 B.C. This beach sports more than 100 prehistoric caves that have made it famous. Some you can reach via a footpath over the cliffs, which also takes you over the rock head and on to a second cove. There are many caves high up in the walls of the gorge, making the exploration of this area very exciting for children and their mom & dad as well. Some caves are inaccessible. If you have the time and energy check out Cales Coves smaller second bay by clambering over the rock head, then go for a dip in the bay's other fork. Nudists use the rocky shelves and cave entrances and swim in the waters of the coves. Menorca is laid back and offers many golden opportunities for Naturists on its unspoiled shores. There are several naturist beaches around the island where Nudity is permitted but not required.
Cales Coves is an attractive bay situated on the South East coast of Menorca. Nudists use the rocky shelves and prehistoric cave entrances and swim in the clear waters of the coves getting "back to nature". Naturism is a lifestyle in harmony with nature. Menorca is laid back and offers many golden opportunities for Naturists on its unspoiled shores.
Het kost heel wat moeite er te komen – een ruige rit op vier wielen of een stevige wandeltocht tussen de olijfbomen van Son Vitamina – maar als u bij Cales Coves arriveert, wordt u begroet door één van de meest onvergetelijke plekken op Menorca. De kliffen die op deze beschutte baai neerkijken herbergen meer dan 100 grotten uit de Bronstijd, uit de rots gehakt en gebruikt als grafkamers en woningen – de doden waren de buren van de levenden. De oudste grotten dateren van de 9de eeuw v.Chr.; volg het voetpad over de rotsen aan uw rechterhand en u bereikt een tweede baai. Onderweg komt u langs recentere grotten - 4de eeuw v.Chr., met ramen, binnenplaatsen en cellen. Sommige dragen Romeinse inscripties, wat aangeeft dat ze ook na de Talaiot-tijd in gebruik waren. Er zijn zelfs grotten die nu nog bewoond worden door moderne holbewoners. U ziet ze water halen bij een bron en naakt in de kristallen zee baden. Van tijd tot tijd proberen de autoriteiten deze moderne holenmensen ertoe te bewegen te vertrekken, maar ze keren altijd terug. Als u een kijkje neemt in één van de onbewoonde grotten, ziet u hippieschilderijen met zonnen, manen en bloemen op de muren. De prehistorische bewoners hadden een goede plek uitgekozen – de hoek van de inhammen zorgt voor beschutting tegen de open zee. Dat maakt de baaien 's zomers ook goede ankerplaatsen voor pleziervaartuigen. De stranden zijn eerder kiezelig dan zanderig, maar u kunt vanaf de rotsen goed zwemmen. Cales Coves zijn een ideale bestemming voor rustzoekers en liefhebbers van zwemmen. Naturisme wordt dus in deze afgelegen baai toegestaan.
Find your way...
Si has perdido el rumbo escuchame,llegar a la meta no es vencer lo importante es el camino y en él,caer,levantarse,insistír,aprender.
Si has perdido un beso en un adiós,o huyes de un destino que te negó la oportunidad de ser felíz,jamás te des por vencido,levantate,el camino te espera.
no pierdas el rumbo...

My most fvrt City. The most vibrant port city -having a coast line of 48kms-situated on the south-west coast of the Indian peninsula.It is surrounded by the Western Ghats on the east and the Arabian Sea on the west. It was from Kochi that the colonization of India started.It was/is an important spice trading centre. Now it is a significant commercial and industrial hub of India because of the IT boom.
As a final note?
What makes this city beautiful..The people, the sea, Chinese fishing nets,multi culture, Jew street and kaikas biriyani (a famous shop which provides amazing biriyani),Mariane drive,cherai beach..and many more. For me,what makes this city close to my heart is, my days with my friends here..The short train journeys to this city, window shoppings, those second hand book sellers in the street ( A street version of ebay) and those long walks with friends..
Update: I had given a border earlier defining the boundaries( pixel's/datas )in this frame but after traveling with ajay visual panoram"s remarks about the frame above...yes i feel who am i to give boundaries for mother nature? We, the simple human being, always make this mistakes we define (or predefine) things, we try to define almost everything. We try to provide boundaries from ecology to emotions. We limit ourselves with well defined boundaries or self/ social imposed restrictions. Yes the process of elimination. When will we learn to think outside those boxes????
I deleted the boundaries given earlier to the frame..now it is more than pixels it is a beautiful profile of mother nature. I am glad I am part of mother nature...

"All men have the stars," he answered, "but they are not the same things for different people. For some, who are travellers, the stars are guides. For others they are no more than little lights in the sky. For others, who are scholars, they are problems. For my businessman they were wealth. But all the stars are silent. You--you alone--will have the stars as no one else has them--".
The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint Exupéry
For me? They are my dreams, my hopes, my wishes, my sighs and that very special quest for mistery that does never leave my soul.
Silenziosa luce delle stelle
"Gli uomini hanno delle stelle che non sono le stesse. Per gli uni, quelli che viaggiano, le stelle sono delle guide. Per altri non sono che delle piccole luci. Per altri, che sono dei sapienti, sono dei problemi. Per il mio uomo d'affari erano dell'oro. Ma tutte queste stelle stanno zitte. Tu, tu solo avrai delle stelle come nessuno ha... "
Il Piccolo Principe, Antoine de Saint Exupéry
Per me? Sono sogni, le speranze, i desideri e quella voglia di mistero che non mi lascia mai.
Hope everyone is well, apologies, looks like flickr absence could be a while, current estimate is somewhere between 2 weeks and 5 years before life gets normal again. Finding it tough with William having pretty bad Colic at night, and next to no sleep, any suggestions are very welcome!!
I did get a few photos of him recently, and will hopefully find time to share something soon, had a load of coastal scenes ready to post for Getty so i'll be sharing them first.
Thanks again for all the kind words and best wishes over the last week or so

Watch the Before-and-After Comparison to see where this photo comes from!
Success story:
> This shot is the 2nd most interesting photo uploaded on February 12th 2011 - has not been explored though
> It is among the top 10 HDR uploads of all times (last check: May 2011)
> It is an Editor's Pick at "HDR Spotting".
The story of this photo:
This HDR vertorama was taken in the Basilica St. Martin in Weingarten, Germany. This wonderful church was built between 1715 and 1724. The white interior creates a fantastic light, and when the sun is shining, this place lights up. This is a classical example of a scene that requires HDR. In a normal shot, you could never capture how the sun shines on those pillars without the rest of the shot being hopelessly underexposed.
While processing this shot, I discovered that my usual HDR Vertorama technique lead to a strange problem: Usually, I stitch the 32bit HDRs in Photoshop before the tone-mapping. However, I found that Photoshop drastically loses details in the highlights during this process. I tried it with this shot and the spots where the sun shines on the pillars became big ugly white blobs without any chance of recovering details. The information in these spots was just lost. Strange! I did not find any explanation or a way to cure this yet. Photoshop just mysteriously loses this data. If you have an explanation, let me know. To avoid this effect, I have tone-mapped the individual images first and then stitched them in Photoshop.
Take a look at my "HDR Cookbook"! It contains some more information on my techniques.
How it was shot:
> Taken handheld (Read more about the technique!)
> 5x3 autobracketed shots (three exposures each with 0, -2, +2 ev)
> Camera: Nikon D90
> Lens: Sigma 10-20mm F3,5 EX DC HSM
> Details can be found here
How it was stitched and tonemapped:
> Created 5 tone-mapped images directly from the RAW files using Photomatix Pro 4.0 (Detail Enhancer)
> Saved the images as 16bit TIFs
> Stitched the 5 TIFs using Photoshop
> Take a look here for a more detailed description.
How it was post-processed:
> Post-processing was done in Photoshop
> Topaz Adjust on the entire image to get back the colors and the details [details]
> Topaz Denoise (more aggressively on the white walls) [details]
> Topaz Infocus on the entire image for sharpening
> Saturation layer on the white regions (desaturation)
> Saturation layer on the windows (master and blues)
> Levels layer on the upper middle part of the ceiling (masked with an oval selection to brighten this area)
> Saturation layer on the paintings (master and reds)
> Vibrance layer on the paintings (for a more even saturation)
> Color balance layer on the paintings (for cooling the colors a bit)
> Curves layer on the floor (enhancing the reflective look)
> Curves layer on some parts of the ceiling (more contrast)
> Vignette effect using a masked fill layer [details]
> Sharpening using the high-pass filter [details]
> Watermarking

The final morning of our phenom female photog weekend (Myself, Jean Day, & Robin Black).
The weather looked dreary & rainy before sunrise. Looked like we would get skunked. Jean & I opted to take the risk & hike into Point Lobos Sate Reserve.
It stopped raining, but no sunrise color.
We did see a lot of great wave action though.
Can't wait to return here in better weather conditions.
Thanks for stopping by to have a look. =)
A low tide at sunset during the winter time is the only time when this view can be seen. Usually this spot is underwater and large waves pass through submerging this place under 5-10 feet of water. I've been waiting a long time to capture this scene! No HDR.

The Story
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grey Whale Cove, about 20 miles south of San Francisco is an excellent beach for photography and for just playing around. Yesterday afternoon was warm and sunny (75f, 24c at sunset) with some high thin clouds which are best for creating those brilliant red sunsets just as the sun drops below the horizon. This evening did not disappoint.
Be careful what you ask for. I was hoping that these clouds would make a red sunset, but the camera had a a tough time with it. It was incredible to see with my own eyes but the reds were getting blown out and the clouds were turning into red featureless blobs. So I had to move into a position where I was pointing away from the sun and then angle two strong grads over the bright parts on the left side of the sky. Most of this picture is not darkened by the grads at all, just the bits in the upper left. And even then, I had to desaturate the reds a bit in Photoshop to get back the detail. For that, I selected the red parts of the sky, feathered the selection, chose the red channel in Levels, and lowered the brightness.
There are lots of elements here that are difficult to capture all at once. Winter is the only time to get light on the monolith rock because the sun sets to the left of the frame. During the rest of the year, the sun sets behind the rock, making it a silhouette.
Another element is that it must be a very low tide in order to get into this spot because there is a cliff right behind me with limited escape options. (This was a 0.0 ft. tide. A minus tide might be even better but the waves would not be there.) And this beach has a habit of sending these sleeper wave surges in avery 5 minutes or so. Just when you get used to the patterns of the waves, a surge will come in and the water rises about 4-5 feet even with small waves. So you have to look constantly out to sea to give yourself time to prepare for a quick escape!
Other elements include that I waited for the sand to become reflective so capture the relection of the monolith rock and for a wave to strike the rock. And I wanted to show a big wave in the distance. About 20 seconds later, that wave flooded this area quite efficiently I must say!
The map shows the exact location.

Simply the best way to scout out locations that there is. You can see sun angles and pre-visualize light under lots of different conditions. Sometimes you can actually pre-compose your shots! This has saved me many thousands of vertical feet of climbing by avoiding spots with blocked views etc.

Larmes et sourire

Souvent même pire
Il nous secoue
Nous traîne dans la boue
Nous donne souffrance

WOW! Thank you so much everyone, for getting my first picture on Explore. It's most likely due to the million of people I tagged, so thanks! Just the other day I put "get explored" on my Bucket List, now its happened!
I am aware you can't read this, so there are other views in comments.
Thank you Sydney!! For the tag!
Now if I tag you all you have to do is make a page of things you love. I thought this was cute so I will tag a lot of people. :D
This is a different winter scene I've taken in April 1998 in Boulder, USA with my old Minolta SLR and now scanned.
Boulder is the county seat and most populous city of Boulder County and the 11th most populous city in the state of Colorado. Boulder is located at the base of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains at an elevation of 5,430 feet (1,655 m), Boulder is 25 miles (40 km) northwest of Denver.
The United States Census Bureau estimates that in 2008 the population of the city of Boulder was 94,268, while the population of the Boulder Metropolitan Statistical Area was 293,161.
Boulder is famous for its status as one of the most liberal cities in Colorado, its colorful Western history, being a choice destination for Hippies in the late 1960s, and as home of the main campus of the University of Colorado, the state's largest university. (Source: Wikipedia)
Warmly recommended to view Large On Black

Boulder (englisch für Felsblock) ist eine Stadt im Boulder County im US-Bundesstaat Colorado, Vereinigte Staaten, an den Ausläufern der Rocky Mountains. Boulder liegt etwa 45 km nordwestlich von Denver.
Boulder ist die größte Stadt im County und die achtgrößte Stadt in Colorado. Die University of Colorado at Boulder ist die bedeutendste Universität des Universitätensystems von Colorado. Fast ein Drittel der Einwohner Boulders sind Studenten – dies prägt die Atmosphäre der Stadt, die als liberal gilt. Das Bildungsniveau der Einwohner ist überdurchschnittlich hoch.
Aufgrund seiner Höhenlage von über 1600 m und seines trockenen Hochgebirgsklimas mit fast 300 Tagen Sonnenschein im Jahr wird es gerne als Trainingsort für Ausdauerathleten genutzt. Möglichkeiten zu Wintersportaktivitäten sind vielfältig vorhanden. (Quelle: Wikipedia)

This is the cover photo of my set Life Line DIGOMBOR
This Photo was Taken form one static point on High way Dhaka –Sylhet Road at DIGOMBOR Bazar, and Mile stone -67, It was 25th Dec 2010 in the evening in between 4:00 pm to 05:00pm . The Idea was to Capture Life Style of Sylhet BANGLADESH at High way , The High way code is no factor when question of daily earning comes , This is a normal and a routine activities almost all over BNGLADESH, Rural People takes Highway as there Life Line , and for daily earning hey need to go to market and sell. Buy there goods and daily commodities, So the traffic code is not important here, Life is impotent for survival. I was Noticed by Locals , Every Week in an average >b> 1 / 2 Road accident takes Places over the pedestrian at this point , still there life style do not Change.
