I basically went to town on this older shot. It was already immersed in some fog and I enhanced it with a touch of blur in photoshop. I love this blur effect.

In Rome at the Swedish Institute of Classical Studies - this was 4 years ago, but the view is basically the same. I'm one desk further back in the room, and not much has changed (except for the placement of all books - a major issue when you have to use a library, but from an aesthetic point of view a minor issue!). Even the temperature is the same, at around 35C!

This is the last of my Autumn colored leaves series. My focus was on Japanese Maple (Momiji) leaves with light play in the image. Basically, I was looking for back lit situations, clean backgrounds, and bokeh. I chose the title Maple Burst for this image because of the bokeh balls on the left side of the frame. Hope you enjoyed the series!
Thank you for stopping by and have a great day~!
I found this naturally grown bouquet of poppies inconspicuously at the edge of a field. Since it grew in a ditch, it was basically invisible from the path.
Luckily I hiked cross-country around the field to look for just such things.
Unscheinbar am Rande eines Feldes fand ich diese natürlich gewachsenen Mohnblumenstrauß. Da er in einem Graben gewachsen ist, war er vom Weg aus im Grunde nicht zu sehen.
Zum Glück bin ich querfeldein um das Feld herum gewandert, um nach genau solchen Dingen Ausschau zu halten.

I passed a strange day on Wirral peninsula with weather going through basically three stations: rain, storm, sunshine, biting cold, everything. Here an instance of the sunny period :)
Happy late Textural Tuesday! (been out at the shore all day long)
Basically this is a macro shot of a Coneflower (Echinacea / Sonnenhut) in our backyard. I love the structure of the blossom - it looks a bit like some kind of strange hedgehog. I processed the shot with NIK Colorefex to make it a bit more abstract.
Basically a wall in a small village outside Faro. Photography students at art school were told to photograph a wall as an exercise - I've finally done it.
It basically were the two of us out there, me searching for the perfect shot and him looking for precious metals and other lost stuff returned by sea and storm :)

basically it is a "two-dimensional three-dimensionality" ... which would be nothing special, after all, are all photos "two-dimensional three-dimensionality", but in this style I'm all about minimalism and graphic patterns that reality has created and that we do not always perceive as such ...
the railing brings a denser pattern and to the right angle as to the circle additional diagonals and a slight colorfulness ... and is thus anything but a disturbing factor ...
im Grunde ist es eine "zweidimensionale Dreidimensionalität" ... was ja nichts besonderes wäre, sind schließlich alle Fotos, aber es geht mir bei diesem Stil um Minimalismus und Grafikmuster, die die Wirklichkeit geschaffen hat und die wir nicht immer als solches wahrnehmen ...
so bringt das Geländer ein dichteres Muster und zum rechten Winkel wie zum Kreis zusätzliche Diagonalen und eine leichte Farbigkeit ... und ist damit alles Andere als ein Störfaktor ...

The Metro in Shanghai is quite impressive. 18 lines, 381 stations with daily 10-13 million commuters. There is a speed train to the airport which can travel up to 450km/ hour.
We were staying on outskirts of Shanghai, but using the Metro turned out to be quite easy. Toronto subway is about 60 year old, and about 59 years behind Shanghai in technology. The first line in Shanghai was build 1995. Since 2010 they are building one line every year. In Toronto we have basically 3 lines and little is being build at the moment.

Churning, bubbling, boiling and basically near explosion. It was trapped for so long within, unable to come out. Kept trapped in a prison of protection. Perhaps this was the only way to survive, to not reveal wounds that take lifetimes to heal.
This was his vow, to forever maintain control. No matter how much the dragon was begging him to release, to look up into the flaming sky and just...let go.
Because control equal strength. Opening up was a weakness. He had to maintain his strength to harness as much power. Yet, what he did not realize that with power comes a great sacrifice. To be invisible, to be alone and most of all, to be never understood.
Not everyone is patient in digging for the multiple keys to help him release his fire. Maybe one day he will realize the beauty in being free and facing any consequences as long as he is true to himself.
P.S. I am excited to see his version which he will share soon when he is done, it will be fantastic! Follow Raion Kento's Stream and look out for it ❤
Angram reservoir is basically fed by the River Nidd and Stone Beck. This is Stone Beck just below the weir and you can see that nature has quickly moved back in with the grass returning to the mud banks which are normally underwater. This is obviously to the delight of the sheep who graze on the rough fell sides.
Strangely they have been planting a few trees in the gully's that feed into Stone Beck to soak up moisture
(Beck is another name for a stream)
Angram Reservoir is the first of three reservoirs on the River Nidd in Upper Nidderdale, North Yorkshire, England, the others being Scar House Reservoir and finally the compensation reservoir Gouthwaite. Angram was built in 1918 by Bradford Corporation

Basically the silhouette of a Hawaiian fisherman on a jetty in Kailua Bay, the morning sun’s rays iridescening on the moving waters surrounding it. - [ ] #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america #omsystem @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany #usaprimeshot @oahu_hawaiii @visit.hawaii
Blondie brought her kids around last night for the first time. She has five of them. Now we know why she was always resting when she got here. Five kids will definitely tucker you out. This one was very adventurous. Mom had to come to the rescue a few times. This one walked right up to another adult and did not heed the growls it was getting as a warning so it got swatted in the face. Blondie came running to the little ones rescue and flattened the other adult and that basically was the end of that. Hopefully lesson learned by all.
Thanks for all your faves and comments everyone!
I really appreciate them!

This is INSANITY.
Basically called it this because the lightning strikes I think look insane!
I didn't plan this shot/shots of lightning. I was looking out the window at home to see if there was going to be a good looking sunset, but it was getting really dense, dark clouds rolling in so I thought id give it a miss. but then I went out to the car a hour later and there was a massive crack right above my head. That was pretty much it. when I see lightning I'm out. I ran and grabbed my gear and was on the road. I made a call not to go beachside this time because I was following the directions of the strikes and they were heading south easterly inland. I pulled up near the freeway to an overpass and decided to get a 2 in 1 shot of some light trails and lightning. It was the best i could do with the timing and situation i was in. This image is a 4 image stack. I will be uploading some of the single image strikes over the next few days when I get around to it. I was considering uploading this one last, but I couldn't bring myself to do that. hope enjoy your viewing as much as I enjoyed taking the shot :)
Feel free to tell me what you think.

There is so much to discover in macro images. Because sometimes it's the little things that rarely attract attention, such as the rose hip bush at the edge of the path, which still had a few brightly colored leaves in December. I usually walk past ... ;-)

A German phrase I've always loved for which I have no real English equivalent that says it so succinctly and with such cheer :-). (Pronounced: Fy-er arb'nt) It basically signals 'time to go home/end of the workday/you're free to go home - have a good night/weekend!'
Happy Fence Friday :-) from Isle D'Orleans in Quebec ...so I probably should've given this a French title ...maybe - but when I look at the floral energy bouncing through this scene, I think of how that word 'Feierabend' makes you feel energized, like you've been freed/released to go relax and have fun. Just as the flowers in this scene seem to be springing over the fence and off to do whatever the night holds in store for them. :-)
Basically, a conglomeration of light, color and utter confusion!
Thank you so much for your awards, faves, comments and visits!!
Oh I put the rental Renault duster to good use in this one. I tried to go there last year but the road was closed due to a landslide, that road is open now, but it's still basically 4x4 on that side, I found another way, after reversing on many tracks that led to nowhere. If I went back there now, I still wouldn't know where to turn, and oh, google maps is useless, it thinks you can drive on goat tracks.
The Metro in Shanghai is quite impressive. I was actually expecting to be crowded, but it was not too bad. We did not travel in the rush-hour. It was busy in the city center and on stations, where 2 or more Metro lines intersect. Shanghai has 18 lines, 381 stations with daily 10-13 million commuters. There is a speed train to the airport which can travel up to 450km/ hour. We were staying on outskirts of Shanghai, but using the Metro turned out to be quite easy. Toronto subway is about 60 year old, and about 59 years behind Shanghai in technology. The first line in Shanghai was build 1995. Since 2010 they are building one line every year.

This early morning shot flood the bird with light but basically I just got a silhouette of the bird and fence, Post photo aps helped pull just some detail out of the dark side.
This is the small moorland road (Bents Lane) from the farm at High Askew to Low Askew as it leaves the moor into pasture land in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park. The grid is designed to stop sheep wandering off the open moor into the pastures
Low Askew is basically a farm and a small row of cottages
The River Seven runs down the valley to the left
A personal favorite bird from our Pantanal trip was the Cocoi Heron. It basically looks like a fancy version of the Great Blue Heron and there was an abundance of them. This one was hunting around a pond behind our lodge on our last morning of the trip.

After basically 100% cloud on the 100% supermoon, I managed to get this one on the day after showing 99%. This is looking across Botany Bay to the shipping container wharves which is also in the flight path for Sydney Airport. A 2 shot simple HDR in Lightroom.... and yes the plane was in the shot :-) The HDR is just to get the moon's landscape (moonscape?) visible.
Basically it's mainly monks who a long time ago have decided to cut down from civilisation and live in those monastery . Really advise you to visit as it was wonderful landscape and immersion into greek way of life.
People always try to get involved
I feel like I'm done, and don't know where to run
People always trying to take a bite out of my mind
If you need a fight, maybe we could start
I feel I might just be coming undone
Tell me why you can't be found?
It's so unreasonable, I know you
Love is a difficult life
Maybe we should take it to the streets
Basically, I might not be weak
Basically, I might not be falling
Basically, I might be used to this

Basically no wind to create an almost glass like reflection on the pond in front of the Capitol Building at dawn
The geranium flower symbolizes happiness, good health, good wishes, and friendship. They are associated with positive emotions, with the exception of the Victorian symbolism of stupidity or foolishness. This old symbolism has basically fallen to the wayside as this cheery flower is typically considered a harbinger of happy thoughts and emotions.

No matter how large or how small a given space may be there’s always room for colors to share that space. A tree has so much space to share with lots of vivid colors. Look at the colors or shades that Autumn provides us at its peak. A Maple tree is a good example. On a smaller scale look at the most colorful fish in an aquarium. One fish can house several colors within its body. Though many flowers appear to represent basically one color such as a Red Rose, a Yellow Rose etc., this rose caught my attention in that there are no less than two beautiful “Colors Sharing Space” Nature continues to amaze and impress us with miracles (plants, animals and people) that come in many colors yet sharing small spaces. Thanks for viewing my work.
This year, we have never seen so many Maple seeds fall from our trees.... they are everywhere... and even manage to catch the fishing lines we have stretched across out pond (to protect the koi from egrets & herons)... I was inspired to capture some.
We basically have to empty the pond skimmer at least twice a day!!!
Basically you sit and smash at the water....well it worked in this instance. This bear was scrambling when it had 3 fish out of the water but it only walked away with one, after all you can only eat one at a time.

Another Bacon Roll ( good ones and all ) and another visit to Earlswood Lakes and the Lakes Cafe . The weather was rubbish so no walk around the water this week other than a quick jump out of the car when there was a brief lull in the precipitation . Only a couple of mediocre swan shots and duck shots and this one of the sign with a gull posing for anyone with a camera .
With the white sign I just thought what a lot of words just to say " No Fishing In The Dark " !!
Undoubtedly one of his greatest artistic endeavors even though a pope has to basically coerce him to take on the project, the paintings on Sistine Chapel Ceiling in the Vatican have been masterfully reproduced by using licensed high definition photography and then a specialized printing technique that emulates the look and feel of the original painting. Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel: The Exhibition a traveling exhibition that allows one to see Michelangelo’s masterpieces up close and on Sunday my west coast damsel and I went to the Northern California exhibition at Davis on the grounds of U C Davis. Amazing the detail and accuracy of each biblical character definitely recommended for anyone who like me hasn’t been to the Vatican or the Sistine Chapel, plus this got us closer than one would ever get in Rome. The reluctant painter considered himself a master sculptor, but the Pope at the time needed the chapel to be finished under his watch, so Michelangelo would have to address the Sistine Chapel before he could sculpt the Pope’s tomb which he had already been commissioned. This image is of the creation of man, Adam as God provides him with the breath or spark of life. #sistinechapelexhibit
