In January 2022 I asked a Flickr support hero to remove my accounts from the Explore algorithm. Peace.

Land's End Peninsula, Cornwall

in the blue morning

Lamahatta is surrounded on all sides by pine forests and tea gardens with panoramic views of Mt. Kanchenjungha. Lamahatta is an ideal holiday destination for tourists who wish to get away from the hustle and bustle of urban life and enjoy natural solitude, with its rare and beautiful species of flowers carpeting the landscape and surrounding gardens. Lamahatta is well-connected to all major tourist hubs like Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Kurseong, Siliguri, etc.

My little African statue is holding beach glass (I think that's what you would call it) I am pretty sure it wasn't washed up on any beach though as I bought it in a shop. I think it was put in a washing machine of some kind. Anyway, I don't know why I was so fixated on this, it just had to be done :)

 

or Blue light reception

 

One shot illustration of blue light induced phototropism in plants.

 

Light is one of the most important environmental factors controlling plant development, and is achieved through photoreceptor proteins. Like photoreceptors associated with our vision, plant light sensors can detect the presence, intensity, direction and wavelength of light, and in turn, utilize this information to direct their growth. To date four different types of photoreceptors have been identified in plants. Among them is a small family of proteins known as the phototropins, which are activated specifically by blue wavelengths of light. The activation of these proteins stimulates a range of processes that ultimately optimize the photosynthetic efficiency of plants, including phototropism, a Greek term describing the process by which plants grow towards light, after which they were named.

I was so happy we finally found a Great Gray Owl but I was not too sure how these photos were going to turn.... It was close to 10:00 PM and I had to crank up the ISO to 10,000 to get a barely decent shutter speed.... Well, I like it and I particularly like the blue light rendition in the distance.... Hope you all have a great weekend! My understanding is that it is a light phase one as opposed to the darker phase one I posted previously.

I took this photo on a cold December night at BMW Welt. I liked the blue mood very much.

Ich hatte noch Glück, das letzte Büchsenlicht mit den beleuchteten Kränen vom Athabaskakai zu erwischen. Ich hab einen ND-0,6hart für den Horizont benutzt und einen ND-0,6soft um die Abenddämmerung noch etwas mehr abzudunkeln.

Sala Consilina / Vallo di Diano (Salerno) [on Explore Oct 5-6 2016]

(Press "L" for larger view). Love to see the wonderful effect that the first light bring to the landscape. When the warm light translucent the air and clouds by shinning and bringing out details and contrast, against the cold blue shadows.

(Spanish: Me encanta ver las maravillas de efectos que la Primera Luz produce en la escena cuando llega. Y brilla en el translúcido aire y nubes, trayendo detalles y contraste en relación al frio azul de las sombras).

Technical Info: Canon 5D Mk II, Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L @ 23mm, ISO:100, f/16, 1.6 sec, polarizer, tripod, Edit Raw file on Lightroom CC and Topaz Adjust 5. Location: New Smyrna Beach, Florida.

Finishing an evening photo shoot and walking back to the car, this scene caught my eye - an after thought, if you will. I'm not particularly interested in industrial scenes like this cement silo but the lights and their reflections on the fractured ice added some interest that was worth a try.

... lanterns in the evening at Munich almost at the "blue hour" ...
