Suddenly before my eyes
Hues of indigo arise
With them how my spirit sighs
Paint the sky with stars
Only night will ever know
Why the heavens never show
All the dreams there are to know
Paint the sky with stars

Rodas es la ciudad principal de la isla griega de Rodas, en el sudeste del mar Egeo, y la capital de la prefectura del Dodecaneso. Rodas ha sido famosa desde la antigüedad por ser la sede del Coloso,una de las Siete Maravillas del Mundo Antiguo.
Su posición la convierte en un cruce de caminos entre Europa, Oriente Medio y África. Esta localización ha supuesto que a lo largo de la historia hayan pasado por la isla diferentes culturas, arquitecturas, lenguas, etc., lo que ha dejado una gran riqueza cultural en la isla. Se cree que está habitada desde el período neolítico.
En el centro de la Ciudad actual de Rodas está el núcleo antiguo, dedicado en su totalidad al turismo junto al puerto de Mandraki. Lo forma la ciudad medieval, con sus calles empedradas, las fortalezas y edificios antiguos reformados, y alguna mezquita. Cabe mencionar las murallas y fortalezas, el Palacio de los Grandes Maestres de la Orden,el Hospital (hoy Museo Arqueológico)... La ciudad vieja está llena de tiendas donde trabajan seis mil personas y se venden toda clase de recuerdos, con el centro comercial en la calle de Sokratos.

This photo was taken on a trip from Tórshavn to Stóra Dímun on 1 August 2010 with the schooner Norðlýsið. I have only been there once. Beautiful green island. 8 people live there. Their ancestors settled here in 1807. People have been living on the islands for more than 1000 years. The families website: www.storadimun.fo/
Stóra Dímun is one of the smallest of the 18 islands in the Faroe Islands and one of the southernmost, it is located between two other small islands: Lítla Dímun, which is not inhabited and Skúvoy. It is also near Suðuroy, the southernmost island and Sandoy. I live in Suðuroy, and every time I go to the capital Tórshavn, I pass by Stóra Dímun.
Just had a look in my archive and found this one. It was taken last year in spring in the surrounding of my hometown Fellbach (Region Stuttgart, Germany). The path goes up to a small hill from which you have a beautiful view at the forest and the river Neckar.
I like the curves and the way in which the trail runs through the photo.
Bei einem Blick in mein Archiv fand ich dieses Bild. Ich habe es letztes Jahr im Frühjahr hier bei Fellbach aufgenommen. Der Wanderweg führt auf einen kleinen Hügel von dem aus ein wunderschöner Blick auf den Wald und den Neckar möglich ist.
Mir gefielen die Kurven und die Art wie der Weg durch das Foto verläuft.

El día cuatro de Junio de mil novecientos ochenta y cinco, a primeras horas de la tarde, despega de San Javier la formación "AGUILA" compuesta por cinco aviones C-101. La misión: realizar un entrenamiento de maniobras acrobáticas en formación y tratar de hacer un primer estudio del comportamiento del avión al ser sometido a las exigencias específicas de un vuelo de exhibición".
Son las primeras palabras escritas en el Diario de Operaciones de la Patrulla Aguila, heredera de la tradición acrobática del Ejercito del Aire y fruto de la ilusión y esfuerzo de un grupo de profesores de la Academia General del Aire, apoyados siempre por todo el personal destinado en la misma. Es justo recordar aquí al entonces capitán CARRIZOSA, auténtico impulsor, líder y "alma mater" del equipo, y sin el cual probablemente no estaríamos leyendo esto.
Feliz dia a tod@s

[en] italian and foreign street artists will be leaving a tangible sign of imagination and rebellion on certain walls. Ericailcane, Dem, 108, Allegra Corbo, Hitnes, Kabu, Run and Zbiok will be reinventing the town’s public spaces with their work, creating a sort of alternative map where animals, shadows, fantastical bestiaries and hybrid and surprising creatures will interrupt the usual townscape.

I just started using Google+ and its a great place to show your work and find great photographers, here's an invite.
About the Photo
*Camera: Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS *Lens: EF-S 18-55mm ƒ/3.5-5.6 IS *Shutter Speed: 20.0 Sec. *Aperture Value: ƒ/22.0 *ISO: 100 *Focal Length: 18mm (28.8mm Equivalent in 35mm Film)
I shot this on a tripod, using a polarizing filter to make the sky a darker blue to contrast the bright lights, and a 2 Sec. selftimer. I like the diffraction stars created by the small aperture that I used.
I opened the RAW file in ACR and used a new preset I made to give an image a slight HDR feel by increasing the contrast and recovering the highlights and adding detail to the shadows. Pretty well it increases the fill light and recovery sliders, then compensates for lack of contrast by increasing the blacks. The detail is added by the clarity slider and the tone curve is manipulated to tune the global contrast of the image. Since I agressively increased the contrast of the image I decreased the saturation and increased the vibrance to compensate and tweaked each colour's hue to make them look the way I wanted.
I opened the RAW file in CS4 and blended it using luminousity blending mode with another layer that didn't have the ACR adjustments that I had done, I lowered the layer's opacity to control the HDR-like effects to the image and removed some of the annoying halos around the shadow areas. I used the patch tool to remove a large pole to the left of the frame and finished it off with the cloning tool. I cropped the bottom of the frame slightly to remove a boring portion of the image. At the end I saved a 16 bit TIFF file, converted to sRGB colourspace and saved as a JPEG to upload to the internet.

One of our tours in northern Spain along the Atlantic coast brought us to the fishing village Bermeo, which still preserved the atmosphere of a typical fishing port.
As I discovered the ropes with the boats in the background, they encouraged me to play with the depth of field. You can see the second picture in my comment.
If you like please tell me .... which one do you like more?
Bermeo is a town and municipality located in the province of Biscay, in the autonomous community of the Basque Country, which lies in Northern Spain. Bermeo has 17,049 inhabitants, and it is the most important fishing port of the Basque Country.
Bermeo is linked by EuskoTren to Bilbao. Bermeo - en.wikipedia
Nice to view Large On Black
Eine unserer Touren in Nordspanien entlang der Atlantikküste brachte uns nach Bermeo einem Fischerort, in dessen Hafen die typische Fischereiatmosphäre noch erhalten ist.
Der Anblick der Taue mit den dahinter liegenden Booten reizte mich zum Spiel mit der Tiefenschärfe. Das zweite Foto seht ihr in meinem Kommentar.
Wenn Ihr mögt, verratet mir welches Foto euch besser gefällt ....
Bermeo ist eine Stadt mit 16.932 Einwohnern (2005) im spanischen Baskenland.
Sie liegt direkt an der Atlantikküste, etwa 25 km nordöstlich von Bilbao, in der nordspanischen Provinz Bizkaia.
Der Küstenort verfügt über einen wichtigen Fischereihafen. Durch eine Eisenbahnlinie ist Bermeo mit Bilbao verbunden.Wikipedia

I took this shot during the channel boat parade that the city of Amsterdam organized for the Dutch (orange) soccer team for reaching the second place at the Fifa World Cup 2010. It was an amazing party and I had a lot of fun. This shot was taken just before the boat with the players arrived and as you can see the people where ready for them. Oranje boven!!!!!

We didn’t win the gold against Spain so we have to make doe with silver and I’m very happy with this result. I’ll be in Amsterdam tomorrow when the Dutch (orange) soccer players take the channel Crouse trough the waters of Amsterdam. Hope we’ll have as big a party as we had in 1988 (that’s when we won the European Cup)
Does the bee care what happens
After it had its fill of the flower…...
Am I the wasted flower and
you the bee….
Be careful,dear
Love is a double edged sword,
It can pierce with love
or it can enter with hate.
You heard the words often
“Hell hath no fury like a women scorned’
hear the words now…
“Revenge has no face like the women deceived”
Think well Dear, Think twice
it is your life in the making…
Lest you have to look over
your shoulder again and once more.

Hello everyone!
Here is one from last summer. Lately I've been shooting everything in HDR and felt like I wanted to step away from that for a minute. I shot this photo about 15 minutes after sunset from the Fort Point National Historic Site. I was there for the full sunset and was shooting off multiple bracketed exposures. As things died down and I was getting ready to leave I decided to capture a few non- bracketed photos.
This one is my favorite of the series. For the most part it's SOOC... I say "for the most part" because I adjusted the clarity and contrast. I also leveled the horizon and gave a small crop.
For more info on Fort Point:
Fort Point is located at the southern side of the Golden Gate at the entrance to San Francisco Bay. This fort was completed just before the American Civil War, to defend San Francisco Bay against hostile warships. The fort is now protected as Fort Point National Historic Site, a United States National Historic Site administered by the National Park Service as a unit of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area.
