In this image I've tried to experiment with several ideas:
1) I've taken the motif of the first ever photography, "View from the Window at Le Gras," created by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce between 1826 and 1827 in Saint-Loup-de-Varennes, France
2) The theory of creating colour images after James Clerk Maxwell's three-colour method first suggested in a paper on colour vision (1855).
3) The application using a carbon print - an image consisting of a pigment, rather than of silver or other metallic particles suspended in a uniform layer of gelatin invented by Alphonse Poitevin in 1855.
4) The use of the carbon process, as it was was later adapted to colour, through the use of pigments, by Louis Ducos du Hauron in 1868. The carbon process can be used to create colour images by using a three-transfer process with three seperate negatives exposed through red, green, and blue filters. These negatives are then printed on separate sheets of carbon tissue, each containing a different pigment (cyan, magenta, and yellow). The resulting images are transferred one at a time onto a final support, creating a full-colour carbon print.

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated
A very quick run out yesterday morning to catch sunrise, then back home for breakfast. The colour turned out really good so was definitely worth the early start. This was taken with my old 35mm f2.8 AIS lens which has been sat in my drawer for the past couple of years. I had forgotten just how sharp this little lens is!
/@Work with cracking great light today, Enjoy! :-)))

Slains Castle is said to be the inspiration for Dracula's Castle in Bram Stoker's novel. Bram Stoker used to holiday at nearby Cruden Bay and went for walks to the castle.
The castle was a home (home of the Earls of Errol who were the chiefs of the Clan Hay) until the 1920s when the roof was removed to avoid paying tax.

A few years old now, I decided to have a proper "go" at getting the look I really wanted from this shot, and think I got it somewhere close. I really wanted to express the light in this, the way it flooded through this misty woodland as the sun rose above some low cloud and mist. To help achieve this, I accentuated the highlights a little throughout the image, whilst keeping some dark shades to help create the impression I was looking for. Some attractive colour contrast between cool and warm helped give the image a sense of fleeting change, the moment just as cool, misty shadow changed to bright, warm sunlight.
"My only concern is putting the right shapes in the right colours in the right places. It is always the geometry." - Jeffrey Smart.
I've always been fascinated by the work of Australian artist Jeffrey Smart (1921-2013). www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/collection/artists/smart-jeffrey/
Smart lived most of the latter part of his life in Italy, but his mature work identified the shapes and colours of industrial landscapes wherever they be in the world. Industrialism is a truly global phenomenon.
Whenever these sorts of scenes present themselves, I always think of (and miss) Jeffrey Smart. It seems to me he continued the surrealism of the early Giorgio de Chirico, and extended it into the realms of hyperrealism and Modernist abstraction.

I know, the colour of this bird has nothing to do with the Holidays, but it does look rather festive! A Spotted Towhee (Pipilo maculatus) is a nice addition to any winter scene!
La Charité-sur-Loire, known simply as La Charité until 1961, is a riverside commune in the western part of the French department of Nièvre. It is located on the departmental border with Cher, which is also the regional border with Centre-Val de Loire
I cant think of anything that has such a varied display of shape, texture and colour than the world of plants and flowers, trees and shrubs. This is a May picture taken in Greenwich Park and has all of those attributes.
Apart from the Acer in the bottom left hand corner, I can't name any of the items paraded but am happy to marvel at the superb
blending of colour provided by nature.
A colour edited Another Place sculptures by Antony Gormley on Crosby Beach, north of Liverpool in Merseyside.
Another Place consists of 100 cast-iron, life-size figures spread out along three kilometres of the foreshore, stretching almost one kilometre out to sea. The figures, each one weighing 650 kilos, are made from casts of the artist's own body standing on the beach, all of them looking out to sea, staring at the horizon in silent expectation.
Having previously been seen in Cuxhaven in Germany, Stavanger in Norway and De Panne in Belgium, 'Another Place' is now a permanent feature in the UK, at Crosby Beach.
According to Antony Gormley, Another Place harnesses the ebb and flow of the tide to explore man's relationship with nature. He explains: The seaside is a good place to do this. Here time is tested by tide, architecture by the elements and the prevalence of sky seems to question the earth's substance. In this work human life is tested against planetary time.
This sculpture exposes to light and time the nakedness of a particular and peculiar body. It is no hero, no ideal, just the industrially reproduced body of a middle-aged man trying to remain standing and trying to breathe, facing a horizon busy with ships moving materials and manufactured things around the planet.
