Pallastunturi, Finland

Taken a couple of months ago on a day when the mist was just starting to retreat. The bridge is Southwark Bridge, the building in the distance is 1 Blackfriars Road. The lens I used was a 200mm full frame equivalent which compresses the scene nicely.

I've turned comments off for this image as I'm going to be off Flickr for a day or two and I won't have the time to reply to your kind comments.

Steam blow from stack can be seen due to low humidity at that time.

This is a photo taken during a business trip to Fuji City and Fujinomiya City, Shizuoka Prefecture the other day. I get caught in the illusion that smoke is coming out of a paper mill, but when the humidity is high and the sky is cloudy, the water vapour from the chimney looks like this. Moreover, by projecting with a little telephoto, you can emphasise the smoke even more. This kind of technique can be seen everywhere.

This technique, which makes the background look bigger with a telephoto lens, is called "compression effect" or "compression effect phenomenon".

UP 8973 West leads Port Hueneme-bound military train SFCOX 01 past the wash rack at Metrolink’s Central Maintenance Facility, former SP Taylor yard, on a gloomy Sunday afternoon.

From this angle you can see how compressed SP’s Taylor yard was, flanked by the tree-lined LA River on the right and residential neighborhoods on the left, this and other issues were the reasons why it was sold to the Southern California Regional Rail Authority.

A few points of interests, the prominent tan building above is LA County USC hospital used by the soap opera 'General Hospital' in its opening credits and the palm tree hillside on the right is Elysian Park home to Dodger Stadium.

Oxpeckers will sit on certain mammals and target the ticks and other small parasites found on the skin and in the coats of these animals. Oxpeckers’ bills are especially adapted to their lifestyle. The bills are pointed as well as laterally compressed which helps the birds work their way through the coats of the mammals in a comb-like fashion and to pry out well embedded parasites.

The Millennium Pier in Gosport shortly after sunset when there was still a bit of light in the sky.

Not really a new waterfall but with such a dramatic collapse it seems like a new waterfall.

The Niagara Escarpment began to take shape over 450 million years ago as the bed of a tropical sea. During the millions of years that followed, the sediments were compressed into rock, mainly magnesium-rich limestone (dolostone) and shale.

This is sitting on blue and red clay. Which is very visible in the photos.

This waterfalls like Niagara Falls over time recedes when the exposed rock falls. I feel what we are witnessing is a once in a lifetime event

The photo on the left was taken a few years ago, while the one on the right shows the dolostone cap missing.
