This is a photo I took in August 2018 in Copenhagen. It was a very nice evening with beautiful light on the clouds. In the original photo however, the reflections were mostly blocked by some plants on the water. I took it as a challenge to use some photoshop tricks and replaced those plants by coping the upper part of the image, rotating it and giving it some water effects. If you look closely you can still see, that the reflections are not completely natural for my point of view but at a glance I think it works quite well.
Manmade backdrops can (sometimes) wreck an otherwise good shop
They can also enhance an otherwise 'average' shot
It's all a question of taste of course
Photography has it's technical side but in the end it's a subjective pastime
I've seen and admired terrific shots taken with a simple phone device
But anyway., this one most definitely falls into the latter average shot/enhance category
If these two sunlit (plus reflector) artificial tulips had a conversation, would they complain about childlessness and the fact that bees and other pollinators are not interested in them? Would they come up with a philosophy of life - and death, as they would know about being unceremoniously dumped one day? If or not if, they add colour and even a bit of beauty to our life. Would somebody say the same about me? If ...

El castell de Fenís, a la Vall d'Aosta, és impressionant, amb les seves multiples torres i muralles. El fet de estar situat al mig de la plana, i no dalt un cim com altres castell de la zona, fa pensar que el seu paper principal fou administratiu i de prestigi.

=============================
Fenís Castle, in the Aosta Valley, is impressive, with its multiple towers and walls. The fact that it is located in the middle of the plain, and not on top of a peak like other castles in the area, suggests that its main role was administrative and prestigious.

A quite different (and more common) view of my daughter... Captured under a beautiful afternoon light during her rowing workout on the Ebro river, on a short visit back home berfore leaving (again!) for the World Rowing U23 Championship training camp past summer.

Una vista algo distinta (y más habitual) de mi hija... Tomada bajo una bonita luz vespertina en un entrenamiento en el Ebro, durante una breve visita de regreso a casa antes de partir (otra vez!) para la concentración de cara al Mundial S23 el año pasado.
Fuegos del dia grande de Gijon en la noche de Begoña pillados desde el puerto del Musel.
Es un acomposicion lograda mediante el metodo de la cartulina
El sistema de la cartulina es poner la cámara en Bull y con una cartulina negra tapar el objetivo con ella y apartarlo solo cuando el fuego artificial estalla, así se consigue simplemente el momento más bonito y esto se hace también para pillar varios fuegos juntos sin tener que fotografiar cuando el fuego ya se descompone que esto haría que la foto estuviese demasiado cargada y sin definición
Espero sea de vuestro agrado
Mejor ver en grande sobre fondo negro
