Parco Talenti was all kinds of peaceful — golden light, silhouettes, and that perfect hush before night falls.

Recently harvested fields add lines and textures. Gentle hues contrast. Bicycles await. Double exposure enhances the fun.

“It’s one thing to make a picture of what a person looks like, it’s another thing to make a portrait of who they are.”

Don't you?
This was taken on the same morning as my sunbeam fence shot last week. I took this one before I found the farm fence. I was driving back from the lake and a lackluster sunrise and saw the sunbeams pouring through the trees on this country lane. As I was taking my photos, another intrepid soul pulled in behind me (so much for solitude) ... but it was another photographer with Nikon gear, so I forgave him. We talked shop: cameras, photography and this most amazing view unfolding before our eyes. I wish I had gotten his name.
The title (slightly rewritten) is from a song by The Smithereens. Saw them in a tiny club in San Diego in 1989. They rocked that little club; got our $5 covers' worth! Loved the beatnik look they had going on. The old man leapt up and caught the bass player's guitar pick (which Jackie quietly appropriated for her own collection)!
Happy Sunrise / Sunbeam / Smithereen Thursday!

I recently went on a brief road trip with my daughter. I was so sad to see the dry, brown landscape as I traveled up the coast. Yesterday Governor Jerry Brown declared a drought state of emergency in California. It seems like the weather is crazy all over this planet.
Despite the brown, barren mountains, this beach looked the same. I applaud Jackie for hanging out with me in the freezing cold so I could get a few photos of my favorite spot.
Happy Saturday Folks!

Had a wonderful relaxing coastal drive during winter break.
This beach was wonderful for sunset.
Only us and the birds, leaving our marks in the sand.

I do not know what possessed me to brave the arctic chill, but I grabbed the camera and headed down to the Fox River for a few sunrise photos. It was so darned, ridiculously cold! Do they make special gloves for idiot photographers? Because I need them! My fingers were literally NUMB after only about 10 minutes of shooting! I had grand plans to, quickly abandoned, and this is what I ended up with.
ng colors and squiggly lights punctuate this ordinary scene as the shutter stays open to let a bit of time accumulate. The figures are prominent. A line hints at separation and a fleeing figure makes me curious. The story is there and it's for each viewer to interpret.

Cheesy title, I know! 'Tis the Season I Guess!! I can't think of anything else at the moment. And another bird picture? What gives? I'm not sure as birds aren't my usual subject!
Nothing special today; just a Happy Tuesday!
Distincion and details may hide behind glass but the nuances show through delighting my eye with shapes and color and horizontal sweeps of space.

La decorazione musiva di S. Vitale, che non sembra fosse più estesa di quel che oggi è visibile, ha 2 programmi iconografici; l'Eucarestia (raffigurazione dell'Agnello nel clipeo centrale e dei Sacrifici nelle lunette inferiori) e la il piano di Dio della Redenzione dell'uomo (figurazioni di Profeti, Apostoli, Evangelisti). I mosaici si S. Vitale sono straordinari per quanto riguarda la tonalità base che non è oro ma è il verde e l'impaginazione verticale ma anche la complessità del registro figurativo che si consuma al bivio fra partenza naturalistica ed esito astrattizzante, ad esempio nei pannelli con Giustiniano e Teodoroa raffigurati, senza ombra, idealizzati.

I haven't had too much time to look at any of my photos. This is one I really like. A few of you probably already saw this on Facebook. Rachel called me from her morning commute and said I needed to get out there and 'shoot the moon!' And so I did! I had a bit of time to play with my 10-stop ND filter. And of course this was before the baby came!!
Today is the family photo shoot, then grandpa flies back home tonight.
Happy Anything Wednesday Everyone!! I will be around later this evening to see what everyone is up to. Been missing my Flickr peeps!! :-)
Spotted this interesting Ferrari while strolling in Wynwood, Miami. My husband couldn't believe someone would do that. It's definitely one of a kind! and I loved the way the light was beaming down on her.

THE OLD BRIDGE
When I was at the age of 15 my brother and me often drove in his car to the Eifel. He and my uncle Erich introduced me to Blues and Jazz music.
One piece I will never forget was „Even Trolls Love Rock and Roll“ by Tony Joe White.
And it goes like this:
But we came upon a long black stretch of woods
Had an old river running through it
And an old wooden bridge across the river
Well just as I was about to step up on the bridge
Out stepped the troll…
So this was what I was thinking when I saw that bridge in the middle of Norway…of course :-) Have a great day!

Color forms an intended triangle that anchors this street shot. Hues of red knit together pieces of the scene. She is the focal point, as humans usually are, and combined with her brightly lit bike, form the focal point. Strong vertical lines form a frame within a frame while intricate diagonals add interest and a feel of motion. Hot and cool add energy. But it is the light, choosing to dance within the frame at random that makes my eye want to explore the frame.

Mono Lake on Christmas Day
And just like that, the show was over. As all the gorgeous light diminished, there was nothing much to work with, and it was time to pack up and go.
What a thrilling ride that I was able to catch though!
I don’t know when I would be back again, but hopefully I can go back very soon. I was super glad that I was able to catch clouds hovering over the snow-covered mountains while having some fantastic reflections of them.
Okay… Now, I need another adventure...
ICM, interntional camera movement, combines with double exposure to create chaos out of a colorful street scene. Buildings tilt and join forces for a multi patterned backdrop. The white line provides a path of excape. A story only imagined is created with a little camera motion and doubling the fun with darkroom magic.

Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.
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.
