The sky is still clearly overexposed but the fairy tale landscape might compensate that, at least a little.
The Pyrenees mountain range forms a fantastic backdrop to the entire Ariège Department, rising some 3,000 meter (10,000 feet) in the Montcalm Massif, along the border with Andorra and Spain. The highest peaks are clearly visible visible from Toulouse in the Haute Garonne. It is one of the least populated and most unspoiled regions of France. The locals enjoy keeping traditions alive, especially old farming techniques. Consequently, as fewer insecticides, for example, have been used, the flora and fauna of the area continue to be rich in both diversity and numbers. Butterflies are common and birds are numerous; particularly noticeable are large birds of prey, including the magnificent Griffon vultures.

Manila is the capital of the Philippines. Metro Manila is the most populous metropolitan area in the Philippines and the 11th in the world with an estimated population of 16,300,000. The greater urban area is the fifth-most populous in the world and has an estimated metropolitan population of 20,654,307 people.
Numerous notable landmarks are located in Manila, such as Rizal Park, and the historical Intramuros. Rizal park is a crescent-shaped 58 hectare park that lies within the heart of Manila's cultural and business district, as an honor and dedication to the country's national hero José Rizal, who was executed in the same place where the park was created by the Spaniards on charges of subversion.

Enjoy an image of the Seattle skyline from the northwestern neighborhood of Magnolia. In the immediate foreground is Smith Cove Waterway, part of the Port of Seattle that houses extremely large cruise ships during the summer months.
In the center, the mill with the green lights is actually a grain terminal (still in operation) and is located adjacent to a fishing pier that’s open 24 hours a day.
The very scenic Elliott Bay bicycle trail goes through the area, known as Myrtle Edwards Park. I take this route to and from work eight months out of the year. In fact, bike season, for me, starts on the first Monday in March! Can’t wait!

A different view of the same scene here.
Last week I rented a Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 lens from Borrowlenses.com. This lens is truly a thing of beauty and awesomeness.
Funny story, actually. So, I rented the lens last week and headed to this very same spot to take some wideangle sunset shots. I spent a good hour on that windy ridge snapping away as my fingers got more and more numb. Anyway, I got some great shots that evening. Well, I thought I had gotten some great shots, but when I processed them they were covered in dust. Every single one. And I have no idea how all that dust got on my sensor. Anyway, yesterday I ran into Borrowlenses.com's San Carlos, CA location and had my sensor cleaned while I waited. Tonight I took the rented lens out for the last time (it goes back tomorrow) and took the shots I had wanted to take last week. And guess what? Tonight's sunset was ten times better than last week's...and dust-free to boot! How's that for luck? This lens is going on my wish list. It really is an amazing, amazing lens.

Continuing my Toy-ronto Life series...
Happy Miniature Sunday, Purple Hour edition yet again :-)
This is from the last Sunday, when I had a great roof-top photo-session during the snowy purple hour. Captured this purple magic in many of my fave places I tend to photograph from the roof-top, of course, Toy-ronto spots included :-) So do expect more of this long-exposure purple goodness in the near future :-)
More of toy-some tilt-shift fun is coming - stay tuned / bientot a l'ecran ;-)
Part of my Magic Purple Hour series.
Yesterday night went to photograph the street art in back alley ways of china town. This was the first shot I took handheld (with ISO 2000, f/8, 1/13sec) just to check the composition with wide angle, before setting up the tripod. After that I took around 15 shots. Interestingly this one I like the most!
Well, again uploaded two photos in one day and in reverse order!! this one is yesterday's shot! Was too sleepy when came back home to process and upload!
Day 116 of 365
Not the best conditions, it was raining and the sea was flat calm... apart from this little bit of swell in one place on the beach.
First time I've been to this bit of coast as a photographer, it's fantastic, I will be back !

Xcaret Park near Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo, Mexico.
At this point, all three of the underground swimming channels come out to one point. A bit further along, they exit near the sea, where people can shower and pick up their towels. This time we swam the one that I am almost standing on to take this picture ...
One of the last beautiful autumn days in Stuttgart, Germany.
Warmly recommended to view Large On Black

A wonderful weekend to you all! I hope you have the opportunity to hand around like these three guys.
I've been back from vietnam for more than a months - I didn't touch my camera ever since. This morning I had the feeling to grap it for the first time after the trip. It's itching again even though it is insanely cold around here. I can't wait to work on something new during the next weeks.

My first ever star trail :))
Had a great time last night with Flickr buddy Rohit Ganda as we went out for our first ever star trail photoshoot!
It was a very difficult location by a lake here in Hyderabad, with a lot of rocks and slush and mud all around and without much lights it took us a long long time to find a right spot to catch the trails.
After nearly an hour of scouting around in the dark, we both managed to find a decent location. I stacked 10 shots here, each exposed to approximately 10 mins (600 seconds) so overall about 1hr 40 mins of exposure in here and am sure a little bit longer would've been better.
Being a sucker for the human element in the frame, on my last shot I went and climbed those rocks and stood there for about 3-4minutes after which I got dizzy and decided to sit down by the side so I did that for another 3-4 minutes. Thats how I got two of myself in the frame, which I'm not sure is particularly exciting but thats how it is.
Am not 100% satisfied with the overall outcome here but considering it was my first time, I will take this. Will certainly try for a better one next time.
A happy weekend to all my friend.

As teenager I wanted to have a motorbike which could be driven without licence but my pocketmoney was not enough to buy one. So I had to work and delivered newspapers every morning one and a half hour before school. It was not easy to stand up every day at 5 o'clock in the morning but I did it. One day I could buy my Mofa. You surely can imagine how proud and happy I was!
The photo was taken with a Rolleicord in 1970 in my hometown Diepholz, Lower Saxony, Germany and now scanned.

Badly needed a day out today after babysitting for 2 days in a row! Joined my friend in Rowerdennan, where the weather was kind to us. Here’s one of the shots I took using a wide angle.
I’m submitting this for the Recording Images group, which as the theme of “landscapes” for this week.
I have a bit of catching up to do, but hope you’re all having a great week so far!

Lago Chiemsee - Fraueninsel (Isola delle Donne)
Il Chiemsee è il maggiore bacino lacustre della Baviera e ospita diverse isole. Le principali sono due: la Fraueninsel, l'Isola delle donne, e la Herreninsel, l'Isola degli uomini.
La Fraueninsel è un ambiente particolarmente suggestivo e romantico dove ha sede un antichissimo monastero delle Benedettine, fondato nell'anno 772 dal duca Tassilo III di Baviera e ancora oggi abitato dalle monache. Nella chiesa, ricca di elementi dell'arte carolingia e romanica, sono custodite le venerate spoglie della Beata Irmengarda
Nella Herreninsel si trovano il celebre castello di Herrenchiemsee, costruito da Re Ludwig II come copia della reggia di Versailles, e l'ex convento dei Canonici Agostiniani, oggi trasformato in museo.
Entrambe le isole sono raggiungibili dalla costa con un traghetto che parte da Prien, il caratteristico paese che si affaccia sul lago.
La stagione estiva è accompagnata al Chiemsee da un vivace programma culturale con rappresentazioni che vanno dalla musica classica, al pop, al reggae, alla musica tradizionale bavarese.
Spettacoli, concerti e musical si svolgono in luoghi di rara suggestione: in castelli, come a Herrenchiemsee e ad Aschau, oppure anche nel teatro all’aperto “Seebühne” in riva al lago o in aree appositamente attrezzate.
Inoltre è proprio il contatto diretto con una natura incontaminata che contribuisce a rendere indimenticabile ogni soggiorno in questa regione: escursioni, passeggiate intorno al lago, mountain-bike e ciclismo, bird-watching nella riserva naturale, vela, windsurf e trattamenti termali. Da non dimenticare, inoltre, il moderno centro acquatico “Prienavera” allestito in riva al lago.
Niente di meglio per scaricare lo stress!! ascoltare musica e correre in riva al mare, questa è la spiaggia di Fertilia, ad un passo da Alghero: una delle mie mete preferite!

I know this vicious minute’s hour;
It is a sour motion in the blood,
that, like a tree, has roots in you,
and buds in you.

I am following the Igp 52 weeks project. A photo a week, with a theme, for one year.
Theme of this week: water .
The flowers come from my birthday's bouquet. The shot is dedicated to all the gorgeous girls who remembered my birtheday and sent their wishes to me: thanks a lot, Igpine!
Inspired by her :-)

This was a very interesting location. I captured this on a beautiful morning in a completely secluded beach in Harihareshwar, India. I walked along the beach for over 3kms before reaching this spot with all these dead trees right there on the beach.
I would've loved to do a long exposure here with the water flowing along these tree trunks but sadly, the waves didn't reach this point because I guess it was low tide. I was anyway quite happy with how this one came out.
I hope everybody's having a good weekend. Thanks for dropping by :)

I'm stampolina and I love to take photos of stamps. Thanks for visiting this pages on flickr.
I'm neither a typical collector of stamps, nor a stamp dealer. I'm only a stamp photograph. I'm fascinated of the fine close-up structures which are hidden in this small stamp-pictures. Please don't ask of the worth of these stamps - the most ones have a worth of a few cents or still less.
By the way, I wanna say thank you to all flickr users who have sent me stamps! Great! Thank you! Someone sent me 3 or 5 stamps, another one sent me more than 20 stamps in a letter. It's everytime a great surprise for me and I'm everytime happy to get letters with stamps inside from you!
thx, stampolina
For the case you wanna send also stamps - it is possible. (...I'm pretty sure you'll see these stamps on this photostream on flickr :) thx!

The day after Christmas, I did a walkabout at my brother-in-laws house. As you can see, no snow! But the light was heavenly, the fall color still vibrant ... and I so love his little rowboat!!
Happy Cliché Saturday!!
This was a beautiful sunset at Cabo Rojo, in the Dominican Republic. The costline here is very impressive with it's textured cliffs, white sandy beaches and turquoise water.
I've been very busy lately, caught up with some obligations, I have not been able to visit your streams. I'll try to catch up with everyone as soon, as I can.
Hope everyone is doing great. Have a fantastic week ahead!
As always, thanks for stopping by and looking. I appreciate your comments and visits.

Tenaya Lake, Yosemite National Park.
As we view all these once-in-a-lifetime shots of frozen lakes from the comfort of our rooms, it's easy to forget one thing...
Even when the sky's clear, high country winters are FREEZING.
One of my goals when creating/processing an image is to share my experiences with each of you, to be able to help you feel what I was feeling when I was shooting. I hope the intimate closeup and the glacial blue allows you to feel that freezing breeze whipping right through you, just as it did to humble me last weekend. I have used Lightroom to bring out -- not to create! -- the blue in the ice. I normally don't like to post multiple consecutive images from the same shoot, but this one's so different from the last that I thought it was appropriate.
For the record, just a week later, the Sierras are now in the middle of a huge snowstorm and the heart of the high country has returned to its all-but-inaccessible winter state. Amazing how quickly things change up there.
Have a great day!
- Jeff

Shot from the bridge under the round tower on this photo (www.flickr.com/photos/dcdead/6641991393/in/photostream/). You can see the bridge from where the other photo was taken in this one (beside the heating plant).
I also have a similar shot to this from a few years ago. See here
By the way: The Ferrari boat is new. The one you can see in the old shot burned down, but the owner got a new one ;-)
