My first time exploring the Victoria & Albert Museum today, and was amazed at the absolute scale of the place. So many different rooms and galleries to explore with so many different items. This was the Paul and Jill Ruddock Gallery, but viewed from the second floor at one end where a stone pathway crosses between the gallery and the main entrance. The roofspace is fantastic in its symmetry and using a glass display cabinet I was able to capture the reflection to make an almost futuristic image from a historic building.
Received an Honorable Mention for this image on 2nd February 2021 from the Tokyo International Photo Awards in the Architecture-Interiors (Non-Professional) category!

In my mind, seagrapes are photogenic because of their shape, contrasting colors and the way the leaf surfaces reflect light. They make a fascinating subject for photography.
If I get excited about little things to look at, you'll forgive me; it's what I do. When I find a new image like this of something simple, I'm pretty happy. All things considered, it's a reasonably simple pleasure.
I'm fortunate to have a passion that, at its core, is based on noticing the scenery. For brief moments, it takes me away from all those other things that seem more important. The way I figure it, if you can enjoy the pure pleasure of the sight of seagrapes at sunset, it's not such a bad thing.

While walking the Condor Gulch Trail with a view looking east and then down and across a canyon between ridges in Pinnacles National Park. My thought on composing this image was more of a look back along the path I had just hiked but also a little bit of capturing the view with the nearby ridges the way they opened up with the canyon or draw below and then the more distant ridge. The other thing I had to keep in mind was that the sun was in the direction that I was facing and definitely affecting any exposures that I attempted to capture.
I chose to work with Aurora HDR Pro to better bring that complete setting in the image. I later exported a TIFF image to DxO PhotoLab 6 where I did some final adjustments with contrast, saturation and brightness for the final image.

From Wikipedia:
Goðafoss is a waterfall in northern Iceland. It is located along the country's main ring road at the junction with the Sprengisandur highland road. The water of the river Skjálfandafljót falls from a height of 12 metres over a width of 30 metres. The river rises in the Icelandic highlands and runs through the Bárðardalur valley.

Inspired by +Trey Ratcliff I ordered a copy of Macphun's new software, Aurora HDR Pro.
This photograph is is actually 5 exposures (from a 2014 trip to Dungeness in the UK) - after importing the images into the software I wanted to see which of the presets worked best for me for this scene. I settled on the "Landscape Detailed" preset. Apart from straightening and cropping nothing else has been done to the image.
What do you think?
The trees are mostly pitch pines (Pinus rigida).
From Wikipedia:
Franklin Parker Preserve is an 11,379 acre natural preserve located in the Pine Barrens in Chatsworth, New Jersey. The preserve links Brendan Byrne, Wharton, and Penn State Forests. Franklin Parker Preserve is owned and managed by New Jersey Conservation Foundation.
Geography is typical of the Pine Barrens with sandy roads, pitch pines, cedar swamps, blueberry fields and tributaries of the Wading River. The 53 mile Batona Trail runs through parts of the preserve and the preserve provides habitat for rare, threatened or endangered species including bobcats, bald eagles, barred owls, northern pine snakes and pine barrens tree frogs. The area also serves as a filter for rainwater that makes its way into the Kirkwood-Cohansey aquifer.
Franklin Parker Preserve was a former cranberry farm that was once the third largest cranberry producer in the US. The farm was owned by Garfield DeMarco, an influential Burlington County Republican Chairman. He frequently opposed many of the pineland's preservation regulations but he decided to sell the land at a significant discount versus the lands estimated value in order to preserve it. The land was purchased by New Jersey Conservation Foundation in 2003 after they were able to raise the funds for preservation. After securing additional adjacent tracts of land from private owners in 2015 and 2016 the total acreage of the preserve is now 11,379. The preserve is named after Franklin E. Parker III, the first chairman of the New Jersey Pinelands Commission.
