Le sport condense en un seul geste tout l’éventail des émotions humaines !!!
À gauche, l’athlète bondit de joie, portée par la victoire. À droite, la défaite pèse lourd, et les larmes tracent leur chemin.
Entre elles, l’arbitre incarne la neutralité, ce témoin calme où se croisent triomphe et désolation.
En un instant, tout bascule : la gloire d’un côté, le chagrin de l’autre.
°°°°°°°°°°°°
Sport gathers in one frame the whole range of human emotion !!!
On the left, the athlete leaps with joy, lifted by victory.
On the right, defeat weighs heavy, and tears fall like surrender. Between them stands the referee, a neutral witness where triumph meets despair.
In a single heartbeat, everything changes: glory on one side, sorrow on the other.

"Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy." - Anne Frank. There was a tree that she could catch a glimpse of from an attic window in the place where they were in hiding. She managed to find beauty while immersed in the depths of ugliness. This is a leaf from a huge Water Oak that is in our yard. It's not the same kind of tree as that which Anne viewed but I think she would still see the beauty.
In "representational" photography, I feel that two things are very important: that the gray values carry the bulk of the photographs tactile characteristics, and that preserving a sense of the light quality is extremely important. It's not always easy (or obvious) to achieve both of these things in such a way that they deliver a "believable" photograph. I'd like to think that these qualities are generally present in my work.
Case in point is this photograph, made with the Rolleiflex 2.8E (Planar) on Ilford's exceptionally good FP4+ film. I exposed this roll at 50 ASA, so it received more than one stop more exposure than "box speed", and developed it in Barry Thornton's 2-Bath developer, which is a variation on Divided D-23. This developer never fails to give me exceptionally good negatives that contain loads of usable information, and the images have a smoothness that typically exceed my expectations. The grain structure is always pleasing and there's plenty of sharpness where it's wanted. In many ways, this is the perfect developer.
It's funny, I experimented with Divided D-23 back in 1984/5 and found it gave outstanding negatives, and yet I never used it again, until 2 years ago (in the form of the Thornton modification). Now, it's one of the most appreciated tools in my darkroom.

Beauty is harmony and aesthetics but the small bumps and mistakes give it the individual character
Schönheit ist Harmonie und Ästhetik aber die kleinen Fehler , Brüche und Unebenheiten machen den individuellen Charakter
Defining beauty
Defined as deep darkness, shadow, was often conceived as a primordial deity, representing the personification of darkness; for instance, Hesiod's Theogony places him as one of the first five beings to come into existence, born from Chaos.
A very foggy morning when we went to visit Emsworthy Barn back in December when the trees are completely naked of foliage.
Absolutely love the way the trees are defined in the fog!

**🎥 Prompt cinématographique :**
Une scène épique et hyperréaliste capturée en ultra haute définition 8K, combinant réalisme photographique et fantastique cosmique. Au centre de la composition, un immense œuf de cristal translucide, légèrement luminescent, repose sur une mer agitée aux eaux turquoise profondes. À l’intérieur, un nid délicatement tressé contient plusieurs œufs décorés aux couleurs vives (or, azur, émeraude, pourpre), ornés de motifs baroques et scintillants, reflétant la lumière comme des joyaux précieux.
Les vagues puissantes viennent s’écraser contre l’œuf avec une énergie dramatique, capturées en pose rapide avec des gouttelettes parfaitement nettes et des éclaboussures dynamiques. L’eau est d’une clarté cristalline, laissant apparaître des reflets et des jeux de lumière complexes.
À gauche, une côte méditerranéenne luxuriante baignée par une lumière dorée de fin d’après-midi, avec des cyprès élancés, des maisons en pierre et des fleurs éclatantes au premier plan. À droite, un village perché sur des falaises abruptes, avec une architecture italienne classique, illuminé par une lumière plus froide et contrastée.
Le ciel est scindé en deux atmosphères :
— à gauche, un ciel chaud et ensoleillé avec des nuages volumétriques doux et réalistes, traversés par des rayons divins (god rays)
— à droite, un ciel orageux et cosmique, chargé d’éclairs violets et bleus, révélant une galaxie spirale lumineuse en arrière-plan, comme une faille dans la réalité
Des oiseaux marins traversent la scène en vol, ajoutant du mouvement et de l’échelle. La lumière globale est cinématographique, avec un contraste maîtrisé, des couleurs vibrantes mais naturelles, et un rendu HDR photoréaliste.
**Style visuel :** hyperréalisme, photogrammétrie, rendu volumétrique avancé, global illumination, ray tracing, profondeur de champ cinématographique
**Ambiance :** mystique, épique, symbolique, entre nature et cosmos
**Objectif caméra :** 35mm, faible profondeur de champ, focus net sur l’œuf central
**Qualité :** ultra-détaillé, textures haute résolution, rendu digne d’un film AAA ou d’une cinématique de jeu vidéo

**🎥 Cinematic Prompt:**
An epic, hyperrealistic scene captured in ultra-high-definition 8K, blending photographic realism with cosmic fantasy. At the center of the composition, a massive translucent crystal egg, softly glowing, rests in the middle of a turbulent turquoise sea. Inside, a delicately woven nest holds several ornate eggs in vivid colors (gold, azure, emerald, and violet), each adorned with intricate baroque patterns and shimmering like precious jewels.
Powerful waves crash dramatically against the egg, frozen in sharp detail with dynamic splashes and perfectly defined droplets. The water is crystal-clear, revealing complex reflections and refracted light patterns beneath the surface.
On the left, a lush Mediterranean coastline bathed in warm golden-hour sunlight, featuring tall cypress trees, rustic stone houses, and vibrant flowers in the foreground. On the right, a dramatic cliffside village with classic Italian architecture rises above the sea, illuminated by cooler, more contrasted lighting.
The sky is split into two distinct atmospheres:
— on the left, a warm, radiant sky filled with soft volumetric clouds pierced by divine sun rays (god rays)
— on the right, a stormy, cosmic sky charged with purple and blue lightning, revealing a glowing spiral galaxy in the background, as if reality itself is tearing open
Seabirds glide across the scene, adding motion and scale. The overall lighting is cinematic, with balanced contrast, vibrant yet natural colors, and a photorealistic HDR finish.
**Visual style:** hyperrealism, photogrammetry, advanced volumetric rendering, global illumination, ray tracing, cinematic depth of field
**Mood:** mystical, epic, symbolic, blending nature and cosmos
**Camera:** 35mm lens, shallow depth of field, sharp focus on the central egg
**Quality:** ultra-detailed, high-resolution textures, AAA film or video game cinematic rendering

Hello to anyone that read this! It's been a long time since my last upload... I was on a trip and had a lot of stuff going on when I came back to my home and I have just recently been able to work on my photos again.
Anyway, about this picture. Have you ever feel like you are walking on an already defined path but somewhere along the way you started to feel... doubtful? There should always be more possibilities out there. Are they reachable? What if I stray away? Would I be able to come back?
Well, I tried to materialized that feeling.
So many times, I let myself feel overwhelmed, like the walls of my world are pushing in on me, and all I can do is cower, or deflect.
This shot reminds me that I define my own world, as much as it defines me...and this shot aligns me in the direction of what is most important...
Hannah and TheBoo...apart, together...
If I were to ever be asked to define a perfect day in a single photograph, this may very well be the photograph I would submit. Absolutely breathtaking view atop Redwall as Long Beach and the wide open Pacific Ocean gleam in the evening light.
We climbed the NW Ridge, a wonderful but rarely climbed island classic in a surreal setting. It was an intense 23 hour, alpine style, day-trip from Victoria. We both had to work the next morning, but the weather was too good to pass up the opportunity. The reward, an astonishing climb and the best views on the island.
A fisherman returns to the Milang Jetty, Souh Australia.
A Pod of pelicans, also gathered like peas in a pod, wait with expectations of a tasty treat from the fisherman.
