Light and life are two strangely intertwined mysteries. In the beginning, the One, absolutely dark and cold, congeals into an original soup from which emerges the light that illuminates the world. Then, billions of years later, tiny floppy thingamabobs, by the grace of ingenious engineering, wriggle to the bottom of warm oceans, absorb shards of light to climb patiently the path of evolution and become living beings, sharp thoughts, brilliant ideas, beauty and art, love and observers of the world that created them. Why is there something rather than nothing? Why are we its spectators?

A new year, new challenges and one of my new year resolutions is to try out more different kinds of photography. Minimalism fascinates me and I love photographing in shades of white. For this photo I placed a white sheet of cardboard on an outside table and photographed the white egg in hard sunshine so that I would get a strong shadow. The result seemed perfect for representing a new beginning.

I grew up during the so-called Cold War, with a constant threat that was intangible.

Right now I feel a threat like I have never known in my life.

I am afraid. I am sick. I do not know what i could do to stop it.

Men attack women in the train just because they want to. A man that did not get enough psychological help killed a two years old kid.

Our politicians have no other idea than closing the borders, which, say it out loud, was always one of the beginnings of totalitarianism and fascism.

I am without further words.

Another image from the trip up to the Lakes a couple of weeks ago, the weather had been largely poor but this morning was looking decent on the forecast and early on I opened the curtains to a world of foggy goodness covering the entirity of Windermere.

 

This was shot looking down the Lake towards Boness from Ambleside with the prominent hill of Latterbarrow at 244m managing to poke its head above the inversion. You can actually just see a little bit of Windermere in the shot with some trees reflected into it.

 

This was taken about 10 minutes prior to sunrise over the mountains with the sky coloring up but the colour still not quite reaching right across the frame but just warming the trees in the foreground up nicely picking out some Autumn colours. The drop in the temperature was very noticeable in both my hands, and the battery life of the drone!

This photo was taken on the morning as storm Arwen raged, as I was adjusting my composition tuning the camera on the tripod to vertical I glimpse this wave starting. I quickly took several shots as I tightened my tripod. This first shot was the only one I caught full frame as it soon rose higher and started to exit right, that photo I called "The jaws of Arwen”.

The Gäuboden is a region in Lower Bavaria that covers an area about 15 kilometers wide south of the River Danube and the Bavarian Forest, beginning opposite Wörth an der Donau and stretching as far as Künzing. The largest town in the region is Straubing, which is often called the center of the Gäuboden. The Gäuboden is one of the largest loess regions in southern Germany and thus became a center of industrialized farming. As a consequence, only few hedges or alleys survived. Now and then, one can find a chapel or a solitary tree.

Last year, a few friends and I flew off to Minnesota to visit with the various owls found in Sax-Zim Bog. We donned our heaviest of jackets, warm boots, gloves, and head gear ... braving temperatures of minus 45 degrees with the wind chill. Lucky for us, it was an irruption year, meaning higher numbers of these amazing creatures. Yes, it was absolutely frigid, but I sure warmed up when we encountered them. This absolute cutie is the Boreal Owl, a small, but chunky owl, normally very difficult to find in the daylight hours, but this one just made my day! Still warms my heart even just looking at this image. LOL. In all, we spotted 6 different species of owls, but none as special as this one. :-)

 

Happy New Year everyone!!
