ABOUT THIS IMAGE

 

"The Marriage of Ocean to Land"

 

The Ocean at each wave, eating away at the Rock, little by little. Each giving and taking in their own way.

Moonstone Beach, Cambria is a great place for shopping, gallery visits, exploration, walking, and for that matter any photography. Wide expanses of sandy beaches and rock outcroppings as well as many species of wildlife. Of course, never forget the restaurants. This day I had just finished a day sitting the Gallery at Marina Square. There was still a bit of light left, so I headed north where I could get some practice with ND Filters. I used several different 3,6 and 10 stop ND Filters experimenting for different effects. I hope you enjoy. Thank you for looking.

Rothenburg ob der Tauber - Kapellenplatz

 

Der Seelbrunnen am Kapellenplatz in Rothenburg ob der Tauber, der zur Versorgung der Obdachlosen im Seelhaus gehörte, ein Fließwasserbrunnen mit ornamentiertem Steinbecken und Brunnensäule und der Rothenburger Minerva mit Wappen und Spiegel, ist nach 1600 entstanden.

The view that greats you following the short journey up the funicular to Fortress Hohensalzburg, Salzburg are amazing.

 

You can see what remain of the old walls that once surrounded the city, the beautiful Austrian countryside and the Alps in the background.

 

We visited at Christmas and enjoyed Christmas carols and gluhwein whilst watching the sun go down.

Found some weird thing in my kitchen (again - my kitchen seems to be full of weird things...). Under the microscope (aka macro lens) it turned out to be someone's or rather something's DNA double helix. Do you remember that scientists found out that we share 99 percent of our genes with mice? I hope that won't apply to bottle brushes, too.

 

The Space In Between: the wire that holds it all together. The brush's width is 1 cm (0,393701 inches), the height of the part you see in the photo is 1,5 cm (0,590551 inches). The blue background is the last daylight from my living room window.

 

Komische Dinge aus meiner Küche, Teil 7: Eine Flaschenbürste, die in der Nahansicht entfernt an eine DNA-Doppelhelix erinnert. Solange wir uns nicht, wie auch mit Mäusen, 99 Prozent unserer Gene mit ihr teilen...

 

Der Draht wäre demnach das DNA-Rückgrat und "The Space In Between". Die Bürste ist 1 cm breit, die Höhe des Stücks im Foto ist 1,5 cm. Der blaue Hintergrund ist das letzte Tageslicht, das durch's

Wohnzimmerfenster hereinkam.

 

Thank you for your kind comments, I appreciate every single one, and your faves!

 

A Happy Macro Monday everyone!

Rom bei Nacht - Piazza della Rotonda (vor einem Jahr)

 

Die Piazza Rotonda wird beherscht vom Pantheon, jenem allen Göttern geweihten Tempel, den Marcus Agrippa im Jahre 27 errichten ließ. Der Brunnen auf dem Platz davor ist hingegen weit jünger, er stammt aus der Zeit um 1575 und wurde von Giacomo Della Porta und Leonardo Sormani gestaltet. Sehr alt ist aber wiederum der Obelisk - er stammt aus der Zeit Ramses II ...

Wien - Maria am Gestade, Salvatorgasse

 

Maria am Gestade ist eine gotische römisch-katholische Kirche im 1. Wiener Gemeindebezirk Innere Stadt, nahe dem Donaukanal. Sie war die traditionelle Kirche der Donauschiffer. Der Name leitet sich von der ehemaligen Lage der Kirche am Hochgestade eines Armes der damals noch unregulierten Donau ab. Maria am Gestade zählt gemeinsam mit der Peterskirche und der Ruprechtskirche zu den ältesten Kirchen Wiens.

ABOUT THIS IMAGE

 

"Awakening from a Dream"

 

I slowly became aware that I was cold, clothed but uncovered. Night had evolved into the twilight rays of morning tearing my eyelids violently awake. I found myself leaning against a large trunked oak tree, my back tight/sore; neck straining, looking to see an Elder Statesman-crusty barked, falling limbs and now way past its prime Elegant Oak with yet so many stories, memories and knowledge. I felt the warmth, heard the stories and became enlightened.

I have been meaning to take a long exposure of the Archibishop's Palace and All Saints Church for a while now, so finally took my tripod and 10 stopper with me.

HMS Belfast, Tower Bridge and The Tower of London - Three world famous attractions along the River Thames split-toned and desaturated in LR6 to give the image a slight yesteryear feel.

München - Leopoldstraße

 

Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg wurde unter dem Eindruck der Zerstörungen und weiteren Folgen wie Vertreibung und Kriegsschuld das Tor bewusst vereinfacht aufgebaut und auf der Südseite eine zusätzliche Inschrift, die Wilhelm Hausenstein entwarf, angebracht: „Dem Sieg geweiht, vom Krieg zerstört, zum Frieden mahnend“. Damit bekommt das Siegestor eine neue symbolische Bedeutung: Krieg bringt nicht nur den Sieg, sondern auch Leid und Zerstörung – er zerstört sogar Symbole des Sieges. Daher kann die Lösung nur Frieden heißen.

Rothenburg ob der Tauber - Galgengasse

 

Die älteste Stadtbefestigung wurde nach Verleihung des Stadtrechts 1172 erbaut. Von dieser Wehranlage sind heute noch der Weiße Turm, der Markusturm und der Röderbogen erhalten.

Der Weiße Turm (auch Galgenbogen oder Inneres Würzburger Tor genannt) steht auf dem höchsten Punkt der Altstadt (435 m über NN) und ist 33,5 m hoch. Erbaut wurde er Ende des 12. Jahrhunderts.

Dear friends, I am realizing that my archives are rich in forsaken treasures – yes, I know that in those days of lockdown you all are realizing the very same thing ;-)

 

This picture comes from a sunrise session at my favourite location, the meanders of the river Adda, dating from April 2015. I would avoid to nag you about this incredibly wonderful location: you can take a look at my album Silent banks, the complete collection of the photos I have taken there; the attached narratives are rich in information about the place, if you are curious enough.

This location is especially renowned for its legendary morning mists, but only a thin layer of milky mist floated above the water that morning.

 

I have picked this specific bracketing for a number of reasons (including the dewdrops you can see on the grass in the foreground), but I suspect that its main merit lays in giving me a feeling of opening to new possibilities. In the same vein, I believe that this pandemic will open a whole world of new paths for us to travel along. After the pain and the sorrow, after having regained the closeness we had taken for granted for so much time before the storm abruptly took it away from us… After we have risen from the ashes of Covid-19 we will be bound to take seriously a huge lot of lessons that this (not even alive) tiny speck of proteins and RNA has taught us. We will have to unveiling our souls because everyone’s soul counts – everyone can contribute to a new way of living, just as now the raging infection requires that everyone accepts and practises the lockdown – and everyone has a role to play in this common struggle.

 

I have obtained this picture by blending an exposure bracketing [-1.7/0/+1.7 EV] by luminosity masks in the Gimp (EXIF data, as usual, refer to the "normal exposure" shot), then, as usual, I added some final touches with Nik Color Efex Pro 4.

I tried the inverted RGB blue channel technique described by Boris Hajdukovic as a possible final contribution to the processing. While this technique (which, its imposing name notwith standing, is pretty simple to implement) often holds interesting results in full daylight landscapes, its effects on a low-light capture (e.g. a sunrise) are utterly unpredictable, so at the end of my workflow I often give it a try to ascertain its possibilities. In this picture I have exploited this technique in a very frugal, yet effective, way – just some touches where needed.

RAW files has been processed with Darktable. Denoising with DFine 2 and the Gimp (denoised and original images blended by lightness).
