I have been playing about with the Monochrome vol 2 LR presets from www.olivejuiceshoppe.com. For this photo I used "bw [juno]" with "tint [sand]".

 

Lighting is from the window, hence the high ISO and therefore noise/grain.

Prelude FPSO is the longest boat in the world with nearly 500 m long. I am here at the top of a mountain in Korea contemplating this huge boat, getting finished in its yard.

*Contemplating:

1. looking at thoughtfully; observing deep in thought;

2. thinking intently and at length, as for spiritual purposes;

3. reflecting deeply on a subject

"One has to tiptoe lightly and steal up to one's quarry; you don't swish the water when you are fishing. I believe that, through the act of living, the discovery of oneself is made concurrently with the discovery of the world around us."

-Henri Cartier-Bresson

 

PixNote:

Cadillac Mountain is the highest coastal point on the East Coast of the United States, at 1,532 feet (~500m). Thousands ascend by car to the mountain's summit to see what they believe is the United States first sunrise and to see the rest of the island.

 

Slow down, take a deep breath and just contemplate the beauty of big white clouds hanging over the sea. This view gives me a great sense of peace.

Where I choose to self-isolate. Sending love out to the world 💛

The view's not so bad from there, but you can do it from any position. The formalities aren't all so necessary.

At times a "Pause" becomes a "Need".

Inspired about how often people sit on the couch (or sofa) especially during the period of lockdown. Previously it was seen as a place of comfort and rest but now it feels like a trap or prison.

... can you make the jump?

My friend relaxing in front of Lake Sabrina in the Bishop area of the Eastern Sierra Range as the Milky Way rises up over the horizon.

 

As I was taking the photos I asked him what he was thinking, He said "absolutely nothing", he was just enjoying staring up at the starry night.

Our lovely holiday in Hickling seems like an age away now. Since our return home, Oldmangellyroo's health has not been at all good (a dicky ticker!) and he is now in hospital, so if you're wondering why I haven't been posting, or been out and about taking snaps then this is why. Probably comments and faves on your photos have been a bit random too, so apologies. Hopefully normal service will be returned in the future! Meanwhile, happy memories!

Big surf this morning at South Avalon. This surfer was heading in and just had to wait for the sets to end. Glad he stayed still for me.

For one minute,walk outside,stand there in silence,look up at the sky, and contemplate how amazing life is♥
