Though Travus loves to surf and spent the better part of the day doing so, his day wasn't going to be complete unless he got some fishing in ;-)
1xp HDR rendered photo taken of Travus doing some fishing in the surf at the West end of Tatado Beach in Shimoda, Japan.
Úbeda, Jaén (Spain).
ENGLISH
Real Street, one of the main streets of the old town of Úbeda. Photo treated with Artizen HDR to clarify the heavy shadows.
***
Úbeda (IPA: ['uβeða]) is a town in the province of Jaén in Spain's autonomous community of Andalusia. It had about 36,000 inhabitants in 2003. It is best known for its association with the writer Antonio Muñoz Molina and the singer Joaquín Sabina. Despite opposition from the ICOMOS, UNESCO declared its Renaissance monuments a World Heritage Site in a cultural unity with Baeza in 2003.
The town lends its name to a common figure of speech in Spanish, andar por los cerros de Úbeda (literally 'to walk around the hills of Úbeda'), meaning 'to go off at a tangent'.

Úbeda es una ciudad de la provincia de Jaén en Andalucía (España). Capital de la fértil comarca jienense de La Loma. La ciudad está declarada Patrimonio Cultural de la Humanidad por la UNESCO desde el 3 de julio de 2003, junto con la ciudad de Baeza, debido a la conservación de sus buenos y numerosos edificios renacentistas así como todo su singular entorno urbanístico.

Part religious observance, part cultural education and part kiddie entertainment, the kopeng sidekarya dance is performed only by a trained few. In this performance for the village's ngeroras celebration, the dance drama was performed by two male dancers, alternating roles with different masks. Combining morality tales and mundane jokes, the performers know how to rivet and engage the crowd. Interestingly, this show was performed while the family members were still going about their processional chores. Each one has a role to fulfill.

Είπε, και την ευκή του επάκουσεν ο Απόλλωνας ο Φοίβος,
κι απo την κορφή του Ολύμπου εχύθηκε θυμό γεμάτος, κι είχε
δοξάρι και κλειστό στις πλάτες του περάσει σαϊτολόγο'
κι αντιβροντούσαν οι σαγίτες του στις πλάτες, μανιασμένος
καθώς τραβούσε· και κατέβαινε σαν τη νυχτιά τη μαύρη.
Κάθισε αλάργα απo τα πλεούμενα κι ευτύς σαγίτα ρίχνει,
και το ασημένιο του αντιδόνησε τρομαχτικά δοξάρι.
(ΟΜΗΡΟΥ ΙΛΙΑΣ )
Thus as he pray'd, his pray'r Apollo heard:
Along Olympus' heights he pass'd, his heart
Burning with wrath; behind his shoulders hung
His bow, and ample quiver; at his back
Rattled the fateful arrows as he mov'd;
Like the night-cloud he pass'd, and from afar
He bent against the ships, and sped the bolt;
And fierce and deadly twang'd the silver bow.
(HOMER'S ILIAD)

I think kids by their very innocent nature will play with fire when first getting hold of matches. Call it excitement with sparks. Must be the same with me when tinkering with the camera. So here's me playing with the shutter and overblowing the light. Now let's see if I will overgrow the habit...

fr: Un coup d'oeil sur la bastide à travers les arcades, Monpazier, Périgord, Dordogne, France
"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.

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. [?]

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.
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.
