As an isolated, late-afternoon shower tries to take off between Becker and Big Lake, as a pair of SD60Ms take a westbound manifest through the curve in Clear Lake and head for Dilworth.
Form, light, shade and aesthetic purity coalesce in the historic tenth century royal palace in Seville. Formerly the site of the Islamic era citadel of the city, the citadel was developed into a larger palace complex by the Abbadid dynasty and Almohads through the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries. A difficult image to capture.
Developing a series for my final year of university took me to the top of the Churchill Square car park in Brighton. The city is relatively flat and so you can see quite a bit from up there, although always within the looming gaze of the two tallest buildings. Nearby stands Sussex Heights; a particularly horrible 20th Century tower. Right next to us was Chartwell Court, an unusual block of flats that begins on top of the car park itself.
It was a quiet night and, whilst sorting out the shot, I imagined a timelapse of the rust dripping down the white paint across from me.

A tropical heliconia plant with striking orange and red bracts. Photographed indoors at the Des Moines Botanical Garden in Des Moines, Iowa.
Developed with Darktable 4.8.0.
Developing 35mm Tri-X in Rodinal isn't something I tried again after shooting this roll in 2012, due to the amount of grain; but a bit of grunge now and again may be appropriate.
Developed this film at college the other day first time in 10 years,
Scanned the negs with my shit printer and made them into positives.

Burrowing Owl
The Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia) is a small, long-legged owl found throughout open landscapes of North and South America. Burrowing owls can be found in grasslands, rangelands, agricultural areas, deserts, or any other open dry area with low vegetation. They nest and roost in burrows, such as those excavated by prairie dogs. Unlike most owls, burrowing owls are often active during the day, although they tend to avoid the midday heat. Like many other kinds of owls, though, burrowing owls do most of their hunting from dusk until dawn, when they can use their night vision and hearing to their advantage. Living in open grasslands as opposed to forests, the burrowing owl has developed longer legs that enable it to sprint, as well as fly, when hunting.
Burrowing owls have bright eyes; their beaks can be dark yellow or gray depending on the subspecies. They lack ear tufts and have a flattened facial disc. The owls have prominent white eyebrows and a white "chin" patch which they expand and display during certain behaviors, such as a bobbing of the head when agitated.

"The line_up is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The“liners” are made out of paper (Din A3),
oil paint and graphite, the theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers."

For my offering for Super Saturated Sunday today I thought I would take an innocuous, unprepossessing photograph (of which I have a vast collection) and quickly turn it into some lurid faux Modern Art that might vaguely emulate the kind you see for sale in galleries for tens of thousands of pounds.
This is a picture of bubbles in the frozen water in a broken mug in my garden taken at the end of December. (For a more normal version of another image taken at the same time see flic.kr/p/2kpGhPy ).
It was developed and processed in Affinity Photo, but the fancy stuff done using Nik Color Efex. The bulk of the effect was due to solarisation combined with a bi-colour filter to create more of a colour gradient across the image, a technique I have used often for this sort of overcooked colour from nothing approach.
A total stack of eight or nine filters was used (it was playtime after all) with some contribution from things like glows and soft focus, selective contrast and graduated ND filter effects. (If you’d like the preset I made from this do ask :) ).
So that was the first twenty minutes dealt with so what should I do with the rest?
Well, I decided to extend the gallery metaphor and make the work look a bit as if it had been hung on a wall. I combined broad frame with directional drop shadow and embossing and then used the Lighting filter to add three spotlights pointing downward as if had been lit from above. I also used the same filter to add a textured, impasto element to the painting and give it some relief.
So there we are. You know where to send those five-figure cheques, don’t you?
I’ll add a link to the in-camera original so you can see where we came from.
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you are wearing your sunglasses. Happy Sliders Sunday!! :)
Newburgh is a large stone-built village on the wide sandy estuary of the River Ythan, close to the point at which it is bridged by the A975. he origins of the village date back to 1261 when a charter was drawn up by Lord Sinclair establishing a settlement here. A little later it acquired the Chapel of the Holy Rood and St Thomas the Martyr in Inch Road. The Chapel is long gone, but the Udny Family Mausoleum which formed part of it can still be seen in the Holyrood Cemetery. art of the name of the original chapel also survives, in the imposing Holyrood Chapel on Main Street. This was originally built as a school in 1838, and the clock tower was added in 1892. The village itself developed as a centre for salmon fishing, and later as a small port. By the 1850s there was a steady traffic of boats and barges calling at the newly built quays on the River Ythan. And by the 1880s there was a small fleet of sailing vessels based here, alongside a dozen resident fishing boats. A little earlier, in 1828, Newburgh became the first port in Scotland to have a Lifeboat Station, then called the Shipwreck Institution. The RNLI, as the Institution became, based a lifeboat in Newburgh until 1961, when it moved to Peterhead. In the 1950s Newburgh remained an active port with quays and a mill. Much of its economic base had declined by 1970, but the corner was turned - as with so many settlements in north east Scotland - with the discovery of oil under the North Sea. Newburgh, with its attractive setting and within commuting range of both Aberdeen and Peterhead rapidly became a desirable place to live. Today's Newburgh is an active and thriving settlement. At its centre is the Udny Arms Hotel providing accommodation, great views over the River Ythan, and an excellent restaurant. Beyond the River Ythan lies one of the oddest landscapes in Britain. Forvie Sands comprises an area of dunes some three miles long and a mile wide. At its heart are the remains of Forvie Kirk, built in the 1100s. This is all that can now be seen of the village of Forvie, once a thriving community but buried by shifting dunes during a storm in 1413. www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/newburgh/newburgh/
Sands of Forvie Nature Reserve: www.visitscotland.com/info/towns-villages/forvie-national... Shifting sands and seabirds The stark beauty of empty sand dunes is complemented by the call of eider ducks, wafting like gentle gossiping across the Ythan estuary. With the constant shifting of the dunes, layers of history have come and gone, revealing the half buried remains of a twelfth century church. Bird life is plentiful and you can watch the summer acrobatics of diving terns or the determined stabbing of the carrot-coloured beaks of wading oystercatchers.
Is anybody out there?
This little Voigtlander Vito B continues to surprise me. I got it in another batch of potentially dodgy cameras at an auction. I haven't been fair to it. Up until now, it has only been used for testing incorrectly stored expired films, where I didn't expect to produce anything. This was the first roll of film used with serious intent and it delivered again. It is built like a brick but is a little gem. The film was Ilford HP5, box speed and developed in 510 Pyro.

The original Párisi Udvar (Parisian Court) was built in Budapest 100 years ago as a department store. From 1909, the City Savings Bank occupied the site, which was developed by German architect Henrik Schmahl. The arcade is two stories high, with a vaulted roof made of coloured glass and a striking hexagonal glass dome designed by Miksa Róth. The crystal glass domes of the passage create a special atmosphere. The floors have beautiful mosaic tiles, and there are balconies, and windows with bar tracery, pediments, and sculptures. You can also see reliefs of bees, symbolizing thrift, a reference to the bank that commissioned the construction. Henrik Schmahl sure wasn't in a thrifty mood when he created this masterpiece.
The building is now part of the unbound collection by Hyatt, and the passage is open to the public.

Back for another year. We observed an Osprey family developing through last year and now the pair has returned within the last week to start all over again. While the male was enjoying the Goldfish his partner was refurbishing the pole mounted nest with new supplies.
While it looks threatening, this storm dropped just a few lightning strikes (closest was 3 miles) and only a trace of rain fell. Winds gusted to 34 mph in mostly virga that produced evaporative cooled downdrafts.
