These Valentines were seen this winter on Black Point Wildlife Drive in Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. The American Avocet is one of my favorite birds and I felt incredibly lucky to get these two in synch.

Oh my, how I envied them and their ability to zone-out. I just can't seem to sleep on planes or in airports no matter how many time zones keep piling up. How about you? Hope they didn't miss their flight! ;-)
Until 1958, these columns were used in the U.S. Capitol. Now, you can find them on a Hill that borders Maryland and Washington D.C., at the National Arboretum. They are a bit spooky looking, if you ask me.

have a funky weekend my friends :))
My first early morning trip to the coast this year, brought a brief, but very vivid burst of colour before sunrise. Not the best composition of the day, however this shows the colour at it's most intense.
226 seconds... the sea was half way up those rocks when I started the exposure!
Worth a look larger :-)

Seen this afternoon straight ahead from my balcony in Fellbach, Germany . How I already told you I often watch the beautiful sky with completly different scenes from my balcony.
You can see some of them in my comment ;-).
Update ... just heard from my dear friend Maria (many thanks Maria) that this cloud formation is very rare and called "Fallstreak hole". I searched for it Wikipedia:
A fallstreak hole, also known as a hole punch cloud, punch hole cloud, skypunch, canal cloud or cloud hole, is a large circular gap that can appear in cirrocumulus or altocumulus clouds. Such holes are formed when the water temperature in the clouds is below freezing but the water has not frozen yet due to the lack of ice nucleation particles. When a portion of the water does start to freeze it will set off a domino effect, due to the Bergeron process, causing the water vapor around it to freeze and fall to the earth as well. This leaves a large, often circular, hole in the cloud.
It is believed that a disruption in the stability of the cloud layer, such as that caused by a passing jet, may induce the domino process of evaporation which creates the hole. Such clouds are not unique to any one geographic area and have been photographed from many places.
Because of their rarity and unusual appearance, as well as very little exposure in media, fallstreak holes are often mistaken for or attributed to unidentified flying objects

Diese Wolkenformation habe ich von meinem Balkon aus gesehen. Ich habe einen tollen freien Blick auf den Himmel und beobachte die vielfältigen Veränderungen sehr gern.
Neu: Wie ich gerade von meinem lieben Kontakt Maria (herzlichen Dank, Maria) gehört habe ist die Formation mit dem Loch selten. Ich habe in Wikipedia gesucht und das gefunden:
Eine Hole Punch Cloud (von englisch hole punch = Locher, auch Punch Hole Cloud und Fallstreak Hole) ist ein sehr selten zu beobachtendes Wetterphänomen und bezeichnet eine kompakte Wolke mit bizarren Spitzen, die sich durch einen deutlichen kreisförmigen bis ovalen Freiraum von den sie umgebenden Wolken – zumeist Altocumulus oder Cirruswolken – absetzt.
Die genaue Ursache, die zu der Entstehung der Wolke führt, ist noch nicht erforscht. Es wird vermutet, dass sie durch schnell herabfallende Eiskristalle entsteht. Flugzeuge als Verursacher werden nicht ausgeschlossen.
Die fallenden Eiskristalle stammen entweder aus einer höhergelegenen Wolke oder sie wurden von den Triebwerken eines darüberfliegenden Flugzeuges produziert. Das Fallen der Eiskristalle ermöglicht es, Wasser aufzunehmen, weil sich die Luftfeuchtigkeit am Eis bindet. Im Zentrum der Wolke kommt es bei ihrem Entstehen zu Schneefall, die Wolke wächst an und der wolkenfreie Abstand zu den Altwolken wird größer. Die Eiskristalle wachsen bei ihrem Sinken in tiefere Luftschichten an und entziehen dabei der Umgebung Feuchtigkeit. Auf diese Art entsteht dort, wo dieses Phänomen auftritt, eine große Lücke in der Wolkenschicht. Warum die Entstehung lokal begrenzt ist, wurde bislang noch nicht wissenschaftlich erforscht.
Die Eiskristalle werden durch die zusätzliche Wasseraufnahme zunehmend schwerer und fallen schneller in Richtung Erdoberfläche. Dauert der Prozess lang genug, weil entsprechend viele Eiskristalle herabfallen beziehungsweise viel umgebende Luftfeuchtigkeit vorhanden ist, formt sich am unteren Ende der Hole Punch Cloud aus den Fallstreifen eine trichterförmige Struktur, die man aber nicht mit Tornadowolken verwechseln sollte. Der Schnee erreicht aber nicht die Erde, weil er in tieferen Luftschichten erwärmt wird und schmilzt beziehungsweise direkt sublimiert.

I'm feel a bit uncomfortable with uploading self portraits, especially this one. I think its because this is so photoshopped. I do not have clear skin or so "clear" eyes. But how fun isn't it to perfect yourself in photoshop..
“Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”
to begin with, i'm retiring my 365. i'm entirely too far behind, and there's always a nagging feeling in the back of my mind to create for this and not for me, so it's done. i may attempt another in the future. :)
secondly, thank you to Joel for renewing my Pro Account! :D
next, i am having a GIVEAWAY over at my facebook page. i'm giving away some prints and a book all about photography! details are at the link!
finally, this is a large screengrab. photoshop quit in the middle of saving, but i had quick fingers and was able to screengrab the finished piece. it'll do. :)
this really represents my struggle with anxiety. i have a lot of anxiety issues and i often feel lost because of them. it's incredibly frustrating all the time, and i'm really, really trying to work on it. small steps, though. <3
also, thank you lana and alia for the help on this shoot!
here is a link to my second q&a video. i'm only answering a question or two at a time. :)
Selling prints on Society6.com now! If you want to see anything in the shop, let me know and I'll add it. :D

I'm organising a photographic trip through the highlands of Scotland in late October 2012 and still have a couple of spaces to fill. The trip will take take in some of the most iconic photographic spots in Scotland as well as some of my own personal favourites. Part tutorial, part guided tour, part philosophy....
If you are interested in this kind of thing drop me a message to angusclyne@hotmail.com and I will email you some more information.
I also have one spare space for a weekend in March in and around Dunkeld, Perthshire, let me know...

Description :
Life is for those who are smart. Those who can pretend, those who can smile, and even smile at people they do not like. Life is for those who want something, those who have other goals than just to die. Life is a game, and I have no plans to play with.
I haven't been feeling so good with photography as I would like. I don't have a lack of inspiration, just that its bad weather, no colors nothing here now.
I have felt really desperate and taking this shot was a big relief for me.. I hope people don't find the watermark so distracting, I'm still trying to find a good way to watermark my photos.

The small fishing village of Arnarstapi in Iceland. There certainly are iconic and picturesque places on earth. I'm very happy to be able to enjoy a lot of such magnificence quite often - as well as some bad weather too, for the sake of appreciating the good (let's say that).
Behind that mountain there's a volcano that can't be seen on my shot due to the haze. It would be Snæfellsnes. In Jules Verne's "A Journey to the Centre of the Earth", the Snæfellsnes crater is the entrance from where the adventurers descend into the bowels of the earth.

Taken out of the archives. A maternity shoot for my friend back in the fall. I had all these shots tha probably would have never seen the day of night again since the last time I had given them the photos.
Love is in the air, so I'd thought it'll be nice to look back at an example of true love from someone very close to me :) Happy Valentine's Day!

In winter, Amsterdammers watch the falling thermometer readings with the same focus as people in Aspen and Chamonix. When the temperature drops low enough for long enough, the lakes and the canals become sparkling highways for the skaters. Little kiosks are set up on the ice to dispense heart-warming liqueurs. I really love this part of our culture. Almost everyone, young or old, likes to skate and is smiling and friendly. We already have one week of ice and wednesday 8 Februari I took a day off to skate on natural ice. According to Richard van Ammerzoden, a skater from Rotterdam, skating in Holland originated as a poor man's sport. Isolated by mud and water in the damp winters, rural farmers prayed for ice. When it came, just like Hans Brinker, they strapped on their wooden skates with leather thongs, and traveled great distances to visit friends and relatives they hadn't seen in months. Then they skated home. Perhaps that explains the origin of the Elfstedentocht or "Eleven Cities Tour", a 200-kilometer mega-tour in the province of Friesland known as "the mother of all skating tours." In the 1890s, some Frisian farmer with well-developed leg muscles tried to skate through all eleven cities of Friesland in a single day. He succeeded, and the rest is history.
Photo taken in Holysloot at the Holysloter Die nearby Amsterdam. Father and son skating from pittoreske village to pittoreske village having a skate-break at "Koek en Zopie". A little kiosk which is set up on the ice to dispense heart-warming liqueurs and warm soup. I really love this part of our culture. Almost everyone, young or old, likes to skate and is smiling and friendly. Dutch skaters enjoying the natural ice. Today I enjoy the natural ice too. I did skate a tour from Amsterdam - Zunderdorp - Ransdorp - Holysloot - Uitdam - Zuiderwoude - Monnickendam - Broek in Waterland -Zunderdorp and back to Amsterdam - about 40km. This photo I took on my way home to Ransdorp.
Eindelijk weer een hele week waarin Waterlanders de ijzers konden onderbinden. Ideale condities want de het meeste sneeuw is netjes weggeschoven. Overal is het ijs dik genoeg meer dan 20cm en het heeft maar liefst -20 graden Celcius gevroren de afgelopen week. De bomen en weilanden zijn wit, de sloten bevroren en de adem komt in kleine grijze pufjes uit mijn mond. Handen op de rug. Rustig ademen. Ik geniet van het geluid van de ijzers over het ijs en het prachtige uitzicht over de besneeuwde weilanden. Vandaag op 8 februari 2012 een lange schaatstocht gemaakt van Amsterdam - Zunderdorp - Ransdorp - Holysloot - Uitdam - Zuiderwoude - Monnickendam - Broek in Waterland -Zunderdorp en terug naar Amsterdam - ongeveer 40km. Jong en oud staan hier op het ijs. Het is min zeven, het is onbewolkt. Koek en zopie is present in de pittoreske dorpjes. Wat betekend nu eigenlijk zopie. zopie komt van soope en betekend borreltje. Er werd namelijk vroeger op het ijs nogal alcohol gebruikt. Tegenwoordig betekend koek en zopie: warme chocomel, koek, gluhwein, erwtensoep en een borreltje. Vader en zoon rusten even uit tijdens hun toertocht langs de leuke dorpjes van Waterland. De warme chocolademelk smaakte mij heerlijk met een beetje rum erbij. Ik ben blij dat ik vandaag geweest ben, het was fantastisch. Een winter tafereel die stamt uit dezelfde vervlogen eeuw als waarin de Amsterdammer Hendrick Avercamp begon met het schilderen van zijn vermaarde winterse schaatstaferelen. Wie even wegdenkt kan zich vandaag in Avercamps wereld wanen.

Mont Blanc (French) or Monte Bianco (Italian), meaning "White Mountain", is the highest mountain in the Alps, Western Europe and the European Union. It rises 4,810.45 m (15,782 ft)[2] above sea level and is ranked 11th in the world in topographic prominence. It is also sometimes known as La Dame blanche (French for "the White Lady") or Il Bianco (Italian for "the White One").
The mountain lies between the regions of Aosta Valley, Italy, and Haute-Savoie, France and the location of the summit is on the watershed line between the valleys of Ferret and Veny in Italy and the Arve Valley in France.
The two most famous towns near Mont Blanc are Courmayeur in Aosta Valley, Italy, and Chamonix in Haute-Savoie, France—the site of the first Winter Olympics. A cable car ascends and crosses the mountain from Courmayeur to Chamonix.
Begun in 1957 and completed in 1965, the 11.6 km (7¼ mi) Mont Blanc Tunnel runs beneath the mountain between these two countries and is one of the major trans-Alpine transport routes.
The Mont Blanc massif is popular for mountaineering, hiking, skiing and snowboarding.
The summit of Mont Blanc is a thick, perennial ice and snow dome whose thickness varies, so no exact and permanent summit elevation can be determined. But accurate measurements have been made. For a long time its official elevation was 4,807 m (15,771 ft). Then in 2002, the IGN and expert surveyors, with the aid of GPS technology, measured it to be 4,810.40 m (15,782 ft 2 in).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mont_Blanc
Courmayeur is an Italian town and comune in the autonomous region of Aosta Valley, in northern Italy. It is located at the foot of Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in western Europe, in the Graian Alps range, and is crossed by the Dora Baltea. Courmayeur shares the summit of Mont Blanc with its neighboring commune of Chamonix in France, and owns the title of highest commune in Italy.
