Chapel of the Madonna di Vitaleta, Val d'Orcia, Tuscany, Italy.

This image is from my Tuscany series. Please view my other Tuscany images in my Tuscany set.

 

The Chapel of the Madonna di Vitaleta is located in the hills of the Val d'Orcia on the road between San Quirico d'Orcia and Pienza in Tuscany, Italy, and is one of the most beautiful and evocative places in this incredible territory, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

 

The small chapel, framed by two rows of cypress trees was built in the spot where legend says the Virgin Mary appeared to a shepherdess. In 1533, a statue of the Virgin Mary by Andrea della Robbia was installed in the church, today conserved in the Church of Madonna di Vitaleta in San Quirico.

 

This shot was planned using PhotoPills. While I had plenty of time for setup I really squandered the opportunity by not exposing for the sun (as much as that is possible). Live and learn. Still, I want to post this image to share what is possible using PhotoPills.

As I waited for the sunset I happened to catch this cloud and structure interaction.

With the 2012/2013 Aurora season coming to a disappointing close, who knows what the 2013/2014 season will hold! So many elements have to align for such an awesome sight to be seen from the west of Ireland. In fact this panorama taken in March 2012 may have been a once in a lifetime event. Delighted to have witnessed it from the comfort of my own home, priceless!

Alignements de Kermario, Carnac, Morbihan, Bretagne, FRANCE.

Thanks for your faves and comments!

The Carnac stones are an exceptionally dense collection of megalithic sites around the village of Carnac in Brittany, consisting of alignments, dolmens, tumuli and single menhirs. More than 3,000 prehistoric standing stones were hewn from local rock and erected by the pre-Celtic people of Brittany, and form the largest such collection in the world. Most of the stones are within the Breton village of Carnac, but some to the east are within La Trinité-sur-Mer. The stones were erected at some stage during the Neolithic period, probably around 3300 BCE, but some may date to as early as 4500 BCE.

Les alignements de Carnac sont situés sur la commune de Carnac dans le département du Morbihan en Bretagne. Il s'agit d'un site d'alignements mégalithiques exceptionnel (la région de Carnac réunissant la plus forte concentration de mégalithes du monde1) constitué d'alignements de menhirs, de dolmens et d'allées couvertes et réparti sur plus de quatre kilomètres. Les alignements de Carnac sont les ensembles mégalithiques les plus célèbres et les plus impressionnants de cette période avec près de 4 000 pierres levées vers 4500 ans avant notre ère.

Planetary Alignment viewed from Philips Lake, Dedham, Maine.

Just noticed I missed removing a couple of plane light trails :-(

The ring doves are still waiting at the top of the trees so they can see when food is arriving. These two managed to get themselves into an intriguing pose this morning whilst fog swirled around them.

This structure sits close to the town of Port Glasgow on the river Clyde. This is a small section of what could almost be called a field of wooden posts. Originally constructed to hold wooden logs for use in the ship building industry which once formed the heart of the work force in the area, they now lie dormant and act as a memory of a long gone industry.

Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Saturn had a rendez-vous in the morning sky today over Alfred Bog.

Project 52 - Week 18 (1/5 - 7/5)

If you zoom in twice, you can see that Mars is right between M20, the Triffid Nebula, and M8, the Lagoon Nebula. If I'd known this, I would have switched to my telephoto lens and got a close-up, like I did with Saturn and the two nebula.

The alignment of a community, is how I saw these house floating in the air at the Tulsa Living Arts, hanging by fishing line with white background, added the texture and the lines disappear.

It was totally unexpected, I only had enough time to get to this spot before the sun went down. To my great surprise, the sun showed up and there was only another tripod behind me :)

A collision of elements: the solidity of the ancient landscape and the absolute fluidity of a fleeting moment. The landscape acts here not just as a backdrop, but as a silent spectator to the continuous flow of time.

Thank you all for your inspiring work and encouragement.

Beyond the fountain, you can see Prince-Regent Street, seen from the viewpoint of the Angel of Peace column, which owes its name to Prince-Regent Luitpold who had it built in 1890.

 

Para lá da fonte, consegue ver-se a Rua do Príncipe Regente, observada a partir do miradouro da coluna do Anjo da Paz, e que deve o seu nome ao príncipe-regente Luitpold que a mandou construir em 1890.

 

Munique/Munich - Alemanha/Germany

Shooting the same locations can have some big drawbacks .. they force us to try to find new angles and takes on things ... New locations on the other hand inspire and enchant us.

 

Well this isn't a new location .. far from it indeed. but, having shot it a 'few' times from all sorts of angles I was blown away when the fates (and a few years watching storms move over the Illawarra) aligned tonight and pinned the tail on the donkey for me.

 

Easily one of my favourite images of 2019 so far.

of Venus, Saturn and the Moon.

Shot in Herne, Germany

Looking West over Cuttagee Lake this evening. Venus, followed by Jupiter, Antares (α Scorpii), Saturn, Galactic Centre and Mars.

Mars is past the zenith.

 

Zodiacal Light too?

 

Taken with a full spectrum modified Pentax K5, but no lens filter in place for the exposure.

Unfortunately hand held with bad alignement, but I liked the light.

By the late 1870s, when this exhibition begins, Édouard Manet had become recognized as a painter of modern life. He had long looked to historical subjects and style for inspiration but in the 1870s grew more and more immersed in the now—eventually proposing a radical new alignment of modern art with fashionable femininity. While he continued to pursue highly finished, heroically scaled paintings intended for the Salon throughout these later years (a time also marked by health problems and limited mobility), he simultaneously approached smaller works more fluidly and spontaneously, taking up pastel and watercolor while unapologetically embracing beauty and visual pleasure.

Rivers of words have been written about the event, so I will not dwell ...

I can say that I hoped to see the biggest moon, but it was at the maximum distance, we can not have everything together; )

 

Thanks for your recent visits, favorites, comments and invitations. I go slow, but everything is very much appreciated, as always....

Here is a shot of Devils Tower at twilight with the Belt of Venus and the Moon serving as a beautiful, colorful backdrop for the scene. I had this entire area to myself, and it really was a peaceful and serene as it looks.

A playground that no longer exists. Behind the fence, a Ford factory that no longer exists.

From nearly 40 years ago, but there will be many a playground that looks like this today.

What I most love about camera paintings is when elements of the same scene get mixed. Here, for instance, the image of the trees has been mixed with the texture of the ground all in the one single exposure. This adds a lot more interest to the image. This piece will be printed 1 meter wide for the upcoming exhibition "Slowlight and the dancing trees" which will be sponsored by EPSON.

The Doric columns in the temple of Aphaia on the island of Aegina shows how the ancient Greeks were very familiar with the idea of alignment. But in nature the cracks in a large, old stump also show a radial alignment, shown using a TextureLabs texture.
