Well, when you're sitting there
in your silk upholstered chair
Talking to some rich folk that you know
I hope you won't see me
in my ragged company
Cause you know I could never be alone
Take me down little Susie take me down
Cause I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
You can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
Well, when you're sitting back
in your rose pink Cadillac
Making bets on your Kentucky derby days
I'll be in my basement room
with a needle and a spoon
With another girl to take my pain away
Take me down little Susie take me down
Cause I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
Send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

My photo trips are always *so* meticulously planned, it’s really nice to just ‘come across’ a place unexpectedly. On the walk from one spot to another, we passed this short dead end alley. To say it was grotty was an understatement- leaks, mould, dirt and grime… Still, it’s one of my favourite shots from the whole trip.

I know, I know. Hong Kong, again! I’m not wealthy- I just keep spending all my money on going there. I don’t think they say ‘Fourth Times the Charm’ but this trip was just that - a success. For almost the entire time I kept my mental health issues at bay. It was a good trip. After three disasters - It is really nice to say that.

Photography workshop with Ryan Dyar

Of all the kazillion times I’ve been to Deadvlei, Namibia, I’ve only witnessed fog only four times. When it happens, it takes the most surreal place on this planet to the next level - total amazement.
Every time I go there, I am fully prepared for it to happen. I have an entire shot list in my head and I know exactly what to do and in what order. When there’s fog, it usually doesn’t last long, so time is of the essence. It’s the only reason why I managed to shoot the entire series that won me first prize in the Travel Photographer Of The Year in under an hour (www.squiver.com/galleries/awards/beyond-veil-death-i/).
Checking the weather forecast, however unreliable it may be, is obviously crucial. By doing so, I was able to anticipate fog when setting up my gear for a time lapse sequence. The resulting scene ended up in the award-winning video Namibian Nights, and one of the stills I shot was awarded in the Wildlife Photographer Of The Year.
My point: the difference between a good shot and a great shot very often lies in the amount of preparation and pre-visualisation. At least, for me it works that way.
This image is basically another still from the above mentioned time lapse, and it’s one of my favourite Deadvlei shots - it’s got stars, fog, light beams, and a pretty eery constellation of dead trees.

If you want to visit Namibia, look no further. We were the world’s first company to offer photography tours to Namibia, and there is no better organised Namibia tour out there. Also, we are still the only company that offers microlight flights over the famous Namibian sand dunes, which happens to be the best way to do aerial photography, and by far the most fun. We end the tour with a few days of serious safari in one of the best and most productive wildlife areas in Namibia - better than Etosha!
This photography tour will be led by one of the finest landscape photographers here on 500px and beyond: Ryan Dyar. Ryan is not only a great guy to travel with, he is also a post-processing wizard, and he will show you a bunch of tricks to get the most out of your images.
If you're interested in joining Ryan to Namibia, please check out our website for more information, images, video clips, and a very detailed tour PDF: www.squiver.com
There are only 3 spaces left, so don’t hesitate too long…

The Dead Sea is the lowest point on earth in any land mass (417 meters below sea level, to be exact). The quantity of water that evaporates from it is greater than that which flows into it, such that this body of water has the highest concentration of salt in the world (340 grams per liter of water).
It is called the Dead Sea because its salinity prevents the existence of any life forms in the lake. That same salt, on the other hand, provides tremendous relief to the many ailing visitors who come here on a regular basis to benefit from its healing properties.

Its certainly a learning curve trying work out how to achieve the results I want to get when doing infrared photography. I am still going through the thought process that it is not perhaps my kind of photography...we will see.

" Dead bodies are buried under the cherry trees!
You have to believe it. Otherwise, you couldn't possibly explain the beauty of the cherry blossoms. I was restless, lately, because I couldn't believe in this beauty. But I have now finally understood: dead bodies are buried under the cherry trees. You have to believe it. "
– Motojirō Kajii, opening of "Under the Cherry Trees" (a popular Japanese quote, especially the first sentence)

Was startled the other day by the long, loud blast of an automobile horn while I was out in the yard. Thought at first it was a road rage incident. Only later I discovered a dead squirrel directly in front of my driveway. Then I connected the horn with the driver's futile attempt to warn the squirrel out of the path of his oncoming car. The squirrel didn't make it and his limp body lay exactly in the position where his life ended. Just a rodent but sad nonetheless. Standing there looking down at the remains, I was reminded of the split second timing that often separates life from death. A fraction of a second either way and the squirrel would still be alive, probably eating seeds from my bird feeder. Instead it lay lifeless and mangled before me. I got a shovel from the garage and carefully scooped up the little guy and carried him off of the road. No intention of conducting a squirrel funeral but I couldn't bear the thought of seeing him every time I left the house. His tail moved just as I lifted him onto the shovel and it frightened me momentarily thinking he was still alive. Then I realized it was just the wind blowing it. Just the wind. This incident reminded me of a photo I had taken a few weeks ago of a small figurine in a nearby cemetery. It stirred the same emotions in me as the dead squirrel. I see toppled funerary statues all the time. But something about this one seemed especially desperate. The gaping mouth, blank eyes, and the limp, lifeless pose. It was immediately distressing but at a level I couldn't fully appreciate until the squirrel incident. Another life metaphor I suppose. The impact or meaning of things sometimes isn't apparent until later, if ever.
On a late summer evening Ogilvie Ridge offers panoramic views along the Dempster Highway in Canada's Yukon Territory.
Here, the highway crosses the continental divide on its journey north to the Arctic Ocean. The landscape bears the marks of frequent fires, evident from the dead trees and the regrowth of vegetation. Looking east, you can see across the Ogilvie River valley to the Ogilvie Mountains. The Ogilvie River drains via the Peel and Mackenzie Rivers to the Arctic Ocean. Rivers on the other side of the continental divide drain into the Yukon River and ultimately the Bering Sea. Interestingly, the region's drainage patterns have shifted over the past 30,000 years. The massive Laurentide ice sheet, which once covered most of Canada, advanced to divert the drainage to the west through the valley now occupied by the small Eagle River. As the ice sheet retreated, it allowed the rivers to carve new channels northwards. This dynamic history is etched into the landscape, offering a glimpse into the powerful forces that have shaped this remote and beautiful part of the world.
