Took a quick snowshoeing trip overlooking Donner Lake last Friday. I shot these few snaps at the top up by the old train trestles. It was a perfect afternoon and I'm ready to hit the fresh mountain snow again after the next storm.

ICM, intentional camera movement, adds a bit of mystery and saturated color to this passageway. Gold and blue join forces to add energy. Patterns reinforce. Color decorates shapes and defines space. Spatial relationships are strong. It's easy to see they are walking in grandeur.

Background Mountain - Mt. Shukstan
June 4, 2016
At top of Mount Baker (Lummi: Qwú’mə Kwəlshéːn; Nooksack: Kw’eq Smaenit or Kwelshán), also known as Koma Kulshan or simply Kulshan, is an active[9] glaciated andesitic stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc and the North Cascades of Washington in the United States. Mount Baker has the second-most thermally active crater in the Cascade Range after Mount Saint Helens.
About 31 miles (50 km) due east of the city of Bellingham, Whatcom County, Mount Baker is the youngest volcano in the Mount Baker volcanic field. While volcanism has persisted here for some 1.5 million years, the current glaciated cone is likely no more than 140,000 years old, and possibly no older than 80-90,000 years. Older volcanic edifices have mostly eroded away due to glaciation.

I almost trashed this image {see the SOOC in comments to see why}. Just for the heck of it, I ran it through camera raw defaults. Sure enough, there was something lurking behind all those black pixels. So I had some fun sliding this around. I kinda like the dreamy result!!
By the way, a few minutes later, I took this image: Waning Gibbous. What a difference a few minutes can make!!

Happy Sliders Sunday Everyone!!
Fluttering wings caught my eye - that and the sound of music catching my ear - brought me to the perfect spot to capture the action. A musician serves as the focal point with a supporting cast of fluttering feathered friends. Shutter speed captures both crisp focus and allows movement to show. The birds create whimsical patterns and an implied diagonal line to draw interest to the frame. The shot is well anchored by columns that serve as a backdrop to the action. Shot from almost ground level, the perspective brings me into the action. Rich details aplenty. There is enough in the frame to keep the eye busy exploring. And maybe one can even hear the music.

Just Above Ceiling Height
Looking barely down on a ceiling holding lamps in suspension is a perspective that gives a different view. Closing time leaves mostly darkness but they hadn't turned out these lights. The array forms a pattern that joins a ceiling sporting patterns of its own. Splashes of light illuminate just enough to show off details. Spots of other colors offer punctuation - a bit of added interest.
It's a diptych in appearance, even though it's been done in a single frame - either side could stand alone.

Il riflesso del cielo nell'acqua ci invita a scoprire un universo parallelo, dove realtà e immaginazione si intrecciano. Ogni increspatura modifica il disegno, trasformando il familiare in qualcosa di straordinario. Non esistono regole, né limiti: solo la libertà di sognare. In questo gioco di luci e ombre, il confine tra ciò che è reale e ciò che è possibile si dissolve, e siamo liberi di vedere il mondo con occhi nuovi. Lasciamoci trasportare dall'illusione e scopriamo la bellezza nascosta nelle pieghe dell'immaginazione.

Surfma took me to all the cool spots! This was another one on my list. It was very cold, and very windy out there ... but we stayed well past sunset. She got a most excellent shot of me: "The Lone Photographer" ... and it was explored!! How cool is that?
This is a long exposure shot ... and I got quite a few ... but I liked the framing in this particular shot the best. I'm still working on the rest of that photoshoot ... some really nice ones with the sunset nested in the rocks. Most of the sliding on this image was to lighten up the image {it was way too dark}.

DAY 5 - MORMON ROCKS AT SUNSET
Mormon Rocks at sunset
Then, the sun dropped behind Circle Mountain in the far distance. The lingering clouds helped the sky turn pink and orange. And the earth beneath it was slowly getting soaked in pink. The colors were subtle and yet very palpable.
The trail led the eye around this massive sandstone protruding up off the hillside towards the groupings of sandstones in the distance. It was mind boggling to think that such a vast field of unique and almost out of this world sandstone formations was pushed up unearthed by the massive force. Thanks to Andreas fault, we get to see this unique scene. And I get to enjoy this without a single soul around.
The sense of calmness slowly set in.
And it felt like everything just stopped all around me, as if frozen in time.
Mono Lake on Christmas Eve
The rain this winter brought plenty of snow in the mountains of California, and I wanted to see them in the Eastern Sierra. Besides, what else would I do on Christmas Eve and Christmas? So, I headed out to Mono Lake, which has always been one of my favorite spots to see them.
The cold temperature (32F) certainly kept visitors at bay. No one was around at South Tufa, and I thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the day of solitude.
I took this as a test shot, but I like it a lot, so I decided to share it. Before completely disappearing, the soft giant softbox, aka clouds diffused light, cast a beautiful light on the Tufa towers.
And look at the reflection of the puffy clouds in the center of the frame! You can’t plan those.
THE ENTRANCE
Going to Haukland beach...what a beautiful place!
It is snowing again today in Bonn, Germany. Will it ever end? ;-)

Mono Lake on Christmas Eve
The remaining light in the sky was fading fast. Even after I switched the 10-stop ND filter to 3-stop, it took 45 seconds to take the shot that I liked in terms of exposure.
Once the subtle pink of the Earth’s Shadow was completely gone, the world turned blue. And I thought that the saturation would fade soon, and it would leave the world with nothing but grey and black.
I don’t know why but the blue reminded me of 37° 2 le main (37.2°C in the morning), aka Betty Blue. Quite melancholic about the past.
The evening of solitude allowed me to look back at another year fading into a distant memory.
I have been having an on and off affair with Photography the past two years or so. One of my goals is to shoot more this year.
I have shot this spot many years back on a cloudless evening. This time around, there were a few clouds to add more drama to the scene. I am still struggling fiddling around with my gear due to lesser practice. Back then, all those adjustments were done with ease. Well, I'm still trying to bring back my muscle memory!
