Our current economy system is a global machine that is destroying the environment and producing millions of losers that nobody knows what to do with!

"HDR" from 3 different exposures (3s,7s,13s) - no Photomatix - Mean (smart object function) of 3 pictures - EXIF from +1ev Exposure - Tripod - WB asjusted to 3000K High fluorescent. The real challenge on this one was increasing local contrast and luminosity while keeping the saturation relatively low.

*History: This town was founded in 1284 by the English King, Edward I, who was also had the title of Duke of Aquitaine. It is an example of an almost completely preserved bastides, which were fortified towns, built in the areas disputed by England and France in the 12th century. This attractive and peaceful village has a turbulent and violent history at the hands of various protagonists.
*Histoire: Monpazier est sans nul doute la bastide anglaise la mieux conservée du périgord par sa place à arcades, ses ruelles, ses maisons, ses églises et les vestiges de ses fortifications.
La ville forme un quadrilatère de 400 mètres sur 220 mètres dont le grand axe est orienté du Sud vers le nord. Toutes les maisons sont d'égales dimensions et sont séparées par d'étroits intervalles (andrones) prévus pour limiter la propagation des incendies.
Cette bastide fut fondée le 7 janvier 1284 par Edouard 1er, roi d'angleterre et duc d'angleterre sur des terrains cédés par le baron Pierre de Gontaut Biron. Ses habitants bénéficiaient de nombreux avantages comme l'exemption d'impôt et l'abolition du droit seigneurial.
Pendant la guerre de cent ans, Monpazier changea plusieurs fois de main. En 1637 une révolte de 8000 croquant naquit à Monpazier.

Bro suggested I take his mountain bike and trek out of the campground to get a better vantage point for shooting Mt. Fuji at sunset.
This is the result of his recommendation.

Excerpt from "Ancient Words" by Tiny Malone
"The wind, the light...all sound was still that night as we returned to our home. The bright moon cast rays of blue light on the place I used to live. The stains of blood were still there. The bones of my ancestors had been desecrated. After this long journey, we sat in silence, contemplating if we should have even returned. The stench of rot and death permeated the great walls of our land. We lived in peace. We hunted here. Raised crops here. Made love and raised our children here. Then someone decided we had to die."
See where this picture was taken. [?]

Lo curioso de esta escalera del Vaticano era que los que subian no se veian con los que bajaban, ya que era una doble helice, como la del ADN.

We had an extraordinary weather this last weeks. A summer weather, which is unexpected in April :-)
And tonight we experienced a real summer thunderstorm ;-)
This picture is taken from my flat's window. It looks like a forest! I cheated a little bit on the green channel to emphasize the effect though ;-°
This is my entry for the week for Foreign'r, a group made with friends. We have a common theme per week and we try to show difference between our lives around the globe.
Test shot with the new Polaroid SX-70 I've got from eBay, rather a clever little Polaroid, it's surprisingly small too, I rather like how easy it is to focus and how it look through the viewfinder, much better than looking through my Lubitel 166B viewfinder (quick note - i didn't like having the border on the Polaroid so I decided to just crop to the picture itself, nice and clean).
I managed to modified the 600 films into the SX-70, removing the ND filter on the sensor and set the camera to the darkest setting on the sensor, picture still came out slightly overexposed but not so much.
Who need Photoshop?
Edited - I've notice due to Polaroid announced that they won't be doing instant film anymore, this lead to an increase number of people searching "Polaroid" on Flickr, and since this polaroid came first out of the list of search, I take this chance to show you the Save Polaroid site;
"This site will document the aftermath of this announcement and will serve as a home-base for the effort to convince another company to begin producing the cherished technology that Polaroid has so carelessly abandoned, this is not about saving Polaroid, the company, rather the remarkable invention of Edwin Land, the instant film that made Polaroid a household name."
A fire destroyed the office/clubhouse of a mobile home park located adjacent to the Lakeside Golf Course on North Coliseum Blvd. late this afternoon. There were no injuries. The building was vacant and was going to be torn down.
The site will become the site of the new Red Carrington Field for amatuer baseball in Fort Wayne. The current Carrington Field on the north side of Coliseum Boulevard on the west side of the St. Joseph River is being displaced by construction of the new hotel being built in conjunction with IPFW and the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum.

Yerterday in the morning I saw this beauty of flower in my garden, and I thought that my family nor me did not have to be the only ones in being able to enjoy its view. It is for that reason that I shoot several photos. All you see here is natural, without post-processing. The water drops are because the rosebush was watered some minutes before.
And I give this rose to all my female friends of Flickr because today is the day of Sant Jordi. The bright, sunny color of yellow roses evokes a feeling of warmth and happiness. The warm feelings associated with the yellow rose are often akin to those shared with a true friend. As such, the yellow rose is an ideal symbol for joy and friendship.
La Diada de Sant Jordi, also known as el dia de la rosa (The Day of the Rose) or el dia del llibre (The Day of the Book) is a Catalan holiday celebrated on April 23 similar to Valentine's Day with some unique twists that show the ancient practice of this day. The main event is the exchange of gifts between sweethearts, loved ones and respected ones--historically, men gave their girlfriends and wives roses, and women gave their boyfriends and husbands a book to celebrate the occasion. In modern times, the mutual exchange of books is customary. Roses have been associated with this day since medieval times, but the giving of books is a more recent marketing ploy. In 1923, a smart bookseller started to promote the holiday as a way to honour the nearly simultaneous deaths of Miguel Cervantes and William Shakespeare on April 23, 1616. Barcelona is the publishing capital in both Catalan and Spanish and this heady one-two punch of love and literacy was quickly adopted.
On Barcelona's principal street, La Rambla, and all over the city, hundreds of stands of roses and makeshift bookstalls are hastily set up for the occasion. By the end of the day, some four million roses and 400,000 books will have been purchased in the name of love. You will be hard-pressed to find a woman without a rose in hand, and half of the total yearly book sales in Catalonia take place on this occasion.
And while La Diada de Sant Jordi is not an "official" holiday, most romantics ditch the office to stroll the beautiful streets of Barcelona and to take in the sultry springtime weather. Love is definitely in the air, but even if you don't have a novio to smooch on a park bench there are still plenty of things to see and do.
For example, the sardana, the national dance of Catalonia, will be performed throughout the day in the Plaça Sant Jaume. And many book stores and cafes host readings by noted authors (look out for 24-hour marathon readings of Cervantes' "Don Quixote"). And there will be a variety of street performers and musicians on hand to add a romantic ambience to nearly every public square and plaza.
Additionally, April 23rd is the only day of the year when the Palau de la Generalitat, Barcelona's principal government building, is open to the public. Inside this Gothic architectural masterpiece you'll see huge displays of roses created to honour Saint George.

Peaches is not actually the mother of all the kittens - but she took over the rearing of all of them. She is also my tortie girl, Liza's, mother.
This is the picture we're going with for the final. I think the composition is more balanced, the tones more intense, the lighting dramatic. I might have to add some elements for the final (bringing more definition to the light going out, etc).

想說今天是白色情人節，101搞不好會有特殊的燈飾；結果如各位所見，撲了個空...
不過去拍拍車軌也是不錯滴...順便還可以試試米蟲大爺慷慨借我的超廣角鏡頭...
後記：回來後才發現ISO忘記調回來，現場就覺得奇怪，怎麼曝光時間這麼短？ 囧
If you should ever come to my village, rebelxtned, I hope, you will find the way to the lonesome tree by having this picture in mind!
okay, ^o^ here is a photo taken with my favorite natural lighting condition and subject… yeah, ö_ö the precious & gorgeous golden lighting at sunrise with those translucent back-lighted wings.
Õ_õ before shooting this frame, those little egrets were flying with an incredible synchronism, together all the time, quite like an egret carrying a mirror aside; ö_ö many times they were showing off some incredible maneuvers right in front of my nose. lols… ò_ó frustrating for me, because the fact was happening at very near time of dawn and i hadn’t sufficient light to click the shutter. ó_ò hmmm… increasing iso for more than 400 would give me too much granulation in the entire composition and the use of flashlight *even with a diffuser* most probably would be disastrous. ö_ö yeah, it was hard to remember constantly that they were wild, they could get scared easily and pluff… ö_ö disappear in a blink of an eye. ~_^
ö_ö i was lucky, they came back later on and eventually, i got this shot. controlling lens flare was a bit difficult but my crew were very cooperative, they promptly answered my request of *don’t move, be quiet, no breathing and heads down* and ö_ö i could maneuver my big lens comfortably. ^o^lols
photography taken in Nusa Dua - Bali – Indonesia - Southeast Asia
hi there! it’s monday, hope you’re all fine and happy ^o^
see you y’all later and have a super week!
Better view at… / Um close melhor no... Original Size
simultaneidade... ♫
certo, ^o^ aqui está uma fotografia feita com o assunto e condição de luz natural favorita. sim, ö_ö a preciosa & bela luz dourada do amanhecer com essas asas translúcidas iluminadas em contraluz.
Õ_õ antes de clickar este enquadramento, estas garças-brancas-pequenas estavam voando com um sincronismo incrível, juntas todo o tempo, muito como se a garçota tivesse um espelho ao seu lado; ö_ö muitas vezes elas exibiam algumas manobras incríveis bem na frente do meu nariz. rsrs... ò_ó frustrante para mim, porque este fato sempre acabava acontecendo numa hora muito cedo, pertinho do amanhecer e eu não tinha luz suficiente para clicar o shutter. ó_ò hmmm… aumentar o iso para mais que 400 daria-me muita granulação na composição inteira e o uso do flash *mesmo com um difusor* provavelmente seria desastroso. ö_ö yeah, foi duro lembrar constantemente que elas eram selvagens, elas poderiam assustar-se facilmente, e pluff... ö_ö desapareceriam em uma piscadela de olho. ^_~
ö_ö eu tive sorte, elas voltaram mais tarde e ao menos consegui esta foto. :P controlar o reflexo de lente foi um pouco difícil mas, a minha equipe foi bem cooperativa, prontamente eles responderam meu pedido de * não movam, calados, não respirem e abaixar cabeças* e ö_ö eu pude manobrar a minha lente grande confortavelmente. ^o^rsrs...

vejo vcs todos mais tarde e tenham uma semana super!
