Dawn at the Moselle near Trier-Ehrang. Small cloud gaps in the direction of sunrise gave a spectacular coloring game, as I have rarely experienced.

Yesterday morning I experienced dense fog over the Moselle instead of the expected sunrise. So for a change there is a different morning mood than usual.
Gestern Morgen erlebte ich statt des erwarteten Sonnenaufgangs dichten Nebel über der Mosel. So gibt es zur Abwechslung mal eine andere Morgenstimmung wie sonst gewohnt.

We had a couple of walking holidays here. A beautiful County, full of diversity, small towns, coastal walks, boat trips and gardens. It has a bit of a mini climate. In the times we visited Seahouses, it has always been sunny or cloudy and mild, we’ve never experienced bad weather there.
Here are some of the many images I have taken, you’ll see what I meant about the skies but also, what a wonderful part of the country to be in.

Despite all I have seen and experienced, I still get the same simple thrill out of glimpsing a tiny patch of snow in a high mountain gully and feel the same urge to climb towards it.

Another photo of the special sunrise I recently experienced at the Quitzdorf reservoir in Saxony. The colors and mood are so completely different from what I'm usually used to from a sunrise.
That's because of the dome of Saharan dust that hung over the country that day, filtering almost every color out of the light except yellow.
Of course, this doesn't make the photo really spectacular, but it's definitely something special. Best of all, the haze in the air allowed me to get an enlarged shot of the sun without overexposure. You can see the results here shortly.
Ein weiteres Foto von dem besonderen Sonnenaufgang, den ich kürzlich am Stausee Quitzdorf in Sachsen erleben konnte. Die Farben und die Stimmung sind so völlig anders, als ich es normalerweise von einem Sonnenaufgang gewohnt bin.
Das liegt an der Kuppel aus Saharastaub, die an diesem Tag über dem ganzen Land gelegen hat und die außer gelb so gut wie alle Farben aus dem Licht gefiltert hat.
Dadurch wird das Foto natürlich nicht wirklich spektakulär doch es ist sicherlich etwas Besonders. Das Beste daran war, dass der Schleier in der Luft es mir ermöglicht hatte eine vergrößerte Aufnahme der Sonne zu machen, ohne dass es zu einer Überbelichtung gekommen ist. Das Ergebnis seht ihr hier in Kürze.

Experienced one of the worst weathers in recent summers in Iceland that day with extremely windy conditions and heavy rain. Captured this from the viewpoint at Hraunfossar Lava Falls.
Hraunfossar - Lava Falls - are beautiful and unusual natural phenomena. Clear, cold springs of subterranean water seep through the lava and run as tiny waterfalls and rapids into the Hvita River.
8-Sep Northern Utah experienced a destructive wind storm with gusts reaching 99 mph (159 km/h). 200,000 homes/businesses without power (I am one of those).
I prefer not to photograph destruction or bad things and instead try to find beauty in all. So naturally, I headed out to the Great Salt Lake!
Photographing out in the open was a real challenge; my tripod would not stay, so I shot handheld. The salt spray was everywhere, and I was coated in salt.
The Great Salt Lake - GPS is not the exact spot of the photo.
No need to comment – Just enjoy :-)
When I started doing this an experienced photographer told me 'if you're not careful you end up taking the same shots over and over again'
Over time I've come to understand he was 100% correct
This shot has shadow., reduced and varied light., in fact it reminded me of an oil painting where the artist deliberately plays with those things to add interest.,
It's not 'classic' photography
But it was my favourite shot of the day
Why? … Simply because it was different
False Creek _ Blue Hour
Vancouver
British Columbia,
Canada
Evening reflections
False Creek is a short inlet in the heart of Vancouver. It separates downtown from the rest of the city. It was named by George Henry Richards during his Hydrographic survey of 1856-63. George Richards named False Creek during his survey of the coast in the mid-19th century. While traveling along the south side of the Burrard Inlet, he thought he was traversing a creek; upon discovering his error, he gave the waterway its modern name. Wikipedia
The Burrard Bridge (also referred to as the Burrard Street Bridge) is a five-lane, Art Deco style, steel truss bridge constructed in 1930-1932 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The high, five part bridge on four piers spans False Creek, connecting downtown Vancouver with Kitsilano via connections to Burrard Street on both ends. It is one of three bridges crossing False Creek.

I enjoy all the individual perspectives on how photographers
view and shoot their images, and how, over time we all seem to adapt styles and make them our own.
I also, enjoy reading the ABOUT section on people's galleries, describing their love and interest of photography, all written uniquely in their 'own' chosen words. It's very interesting to see what makes the different artists 'click'.

Well what an incredible sunrise me and my three clients experienced this morning on my one day autumnal Lake District workshop at Windermere.
We were driving en-route to Rydal to shoot the tree when the colours in my minibus wing mirrors lit up with stunning pinks and blues. Without hesitation I decided to park up at Waterhead and walk down towards Holme Crag. It was an inspired choice due to the copious amounts of beautiful little boats that made for great subjects. Here's one such boat that enjoyed being surrounded by the mist that rolled on the surface of the water.
HUGE thanks to Carl, Dave and Dean for their company today. It was a really enjoyable day's photography and a quick hi to Chris Sale, a YouTube vlogger who I bumped into on the shoreline of Rydal mid-morning. It was great to chat with you Chris.
You can follow Chris's YouTube channel here and don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to his channel if you like what you see. www.youtube.com/channel/UCaR849-KG86v4UgD52PLT4g
Okay, that's it for today. I will edit another image tomorrow from today's workshop and I shall make a start on my New Zealand blog including plenty of my 'yet to be seen' images.

"I climb mountains so I can see where the sun spleeps."
(stumbled upon that lovely quote on the Internet, but don't know who the author is)
We were heading back from the Sass de Putia (Dolomites, South Tyrol) to our holiday residence and stopped at this point hoping to see the alpenglow on the peaks of the Geisler Group (Odle)
And we were very lucky and experienced a breathtaking alpenglow that evening (I might upload an image of it when I finally was able to sift through the many photos I took that evening) ... this photo was taken while we were waiting for the alpenglow to begin. The sun was slowly setting behind the mountains and created lovely golden hues : )

"Ich besteige Berge, um zu sehen, wo die Sonne schläft."
(bin im Internet über dieses schöne Zitat gestolpert, weiß allerdings nicht, wer der Autor ist)
Wir waren auf dem Rückweg vom Peitlerkofel (Dolomiten, Südtirol) zu unserer Ferienwohnung und hielten an dieser Stelle an in der Hoffnung, das Alpenglühen auf den Geislerspitzen (Odle) zu sehen
Und wir hatten Glück und erlebten an diesem Abend ein atemberaubendes Alpenglühen (ich werde vielleicht ein Bild davon hochladen, wenn ich endlich in der Lage war, die vielen Fotos, die ich an diesem Abend gemacht habe, zu sichten) ... dieses Foto habe ich aufgenommen, während wir auf den Beginn des Alpenglühens warteten. Die Sonne ging langsam hinter den Bergen unter und erzeugte schöne goldene Farbtöne : )

THE SWEETEST TABOO - SADE
FEAR/TEMOR
Standing by and letting me float free
you stand so close; I can taste your breath
my heart is racing, but my soul is slow
I am running to nowhere until I hit the wall
You play to me late into the night
you listen to me singing all day long
we hold each other so distantly
both scared to run to where we can't hide
let me closer into your arms
wrap me with love and tender kisses
walk out with me; tell me all you know
and dance me to the golden hour
I don't think it at all possible
to fall in love and remain as friends
so I let you walk alone on your reconfigured journey
it's the only way this will always end
I can write and re-write every tiny detail
but it will always play out just like this
we had a good run for all this time
but it could never be ended so simply with a lover's kiss
So you walk off like a cowboy into the sunset
and I'll drive alone along parallel lines
you take the right road, it's the right road for you
and I'll take what's left of the setting sun
The power lines above us are filled with energy
I can feel the tingling in my head
but they can't raise the flatness all around us
or erase the memories of the things we said
Fear is something that I learned from the age of seven,
do you remember that day, the day I drowned
I knew then what I'll always know
when something's lost, it can never be re-found
What you've got to do is create
your own sweet reality within your pure but burgeoning mind
nothing and no-one can take this from you
so you learn to be cruel just to be kind
You'll be ok; I know you'll make it
you're not so lost you can't be found
but what love has taught me; I know that life has brought me
the imagination and strength to stand my ground

Melbourne experienced a colder and wetter than average winter this year, which then became the wettest spring ever recorded. Now however, it seems that summer has finally arrived, albeit late, with glorious days of summer sunshine that bring out beautiful blooms on all the flowers.
This includes my "Nahema" rose in my rear garden which grows by my back terrace. My garden is quite shady, but it does live in a spot where it gets afternoon sun.
"Nahema" was bred by Georges Delbard, in France, from "Grand Siecle" and "Heritage" in 1991 and released in France in 2006. "Nahema" has established a reputation as one of the best fragrant climbers on the market. It produces masses of highly fragrant and deeply cupped old-fashioned blooms with velvety petals of delicate almond blossom pink. This rose blooms in profusion throughout the season with a strong perfume of citrus, peach, apricot, pear and rose. The renowned perfume of the Guerlain range of perfumes is based on the essence of this rose.
I experienced a beautiful sunrise at Lake Sempach. The sun rose brightly in front of me and a small mist shone like pure gold. I turned and noticed that amazing pink sky behind me. It had significantly more color than against the sun. It's worth changing your perspective.

"Solidão is a Portuguese term meaning loneliness or abandonment. It is an emotion experienced by many people and can take various forms, such as emotional distance, lack of social connections, and feelings of isolation. It is important to acknowledge that solitude is a human experience and that support and help is available for those who are dealing with it. It is also important to seek connection and community with others, which can alleviate the effects of solitude."
by my dear friend Ben The Man
I was uninspired trying to come up with something interesting for this theme until I looked in my "Measure & Level" drawer and found a couple old rulers that have obviously been around for a while.
The green smear of paint on the top ruler was my grandfather's tool color and the one on the bottom is actually stamped "Made in the U.S.A."-- very uncommon these days.
Anyway, Happy Macro Monday everyone! :)

Melbourne has experienced a wonderful Indian summer this year, and as a result, not only are the Autumnal colours starting to appear, but there are still plenty of beautiful blooms.
I spotted these "Red Cherry" French Marigolds on a walk. They stood out against their green backdrop with their showy red and orange petals.
Tagetes is a genus of annual or perennial, mostly herbaceous plants in the sunflower family Asteraceae. They are among several groups of plants known in English as marigolds.
Melbourne experienced a colder and wetter than average winter last year, which then became the wettest spring ever recorded. However, summer did eventually arrive, albeit late, with glorious days of sunshine that brought out beautiful blooms on all the flowers. This included my Elina Rose, which is one of the strongest rose bushes in my front garden.
Elina is a very prolific, constantly flowering Hybrid Tea rose bred in Northern Ireland by the Dickson family in 1983. It was released in 1984. Each rich cream coloured flower comprises around 25 petals. Elina’s perfect classic rose shape, long straight stems, mild fragrance and attractive foliage ensures it is a popular cut flower variety and sought after by florists.
I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.
Mother Teresa
Love is an emotion experienced by the many and enjoyed by the few.

Hell must be experienced
A world unique has been opened in the Czech Republic - HELL, which has no analogues in Europe or anywhere else in the world. You can find it near Hlinsko in Bohemia in the village Čertovina. The exceptional structure reaches a depth of 12 meters below the ground, where there are hundreds of meters of corridors and caves, and then the sky is eight meters.
The building resembles a giant overturned ship 65 meters long and 14 meters wide. A legend is attached to it, which says that in 666 devils sailed on hellships and searched for sinful souls. One night, however, they were caught in a violent storm and the whole ship turned upside down. Lucifer took his huge pitchfork, stabbed it directly in front of the bow of the overturned ship, and said, "Hell will never go to heaven!" He ordered all the furriers to kick and dig until they dug their HELL. And sinful souls in the earthly world who were not afraid to settle nearby called this place Devil's.
Melbourne has experienced a colder and wetter than average winter this year, which is now bleeding well and truly into a wetter and greyer than average spring and summer, however on the rare sunny days we are currently getting, the showing of flowers and blossoms is beautiful.
This includes my "Nahema" rose in my rear garden which grows by my back terrace. My garden is quite shady, but it does live in a spot where it gets afternoon sun. We have had a few sunny and warm days the last week or so, so it has finally started blooming! This is my first flower for summer!

We experienced a lot of rain and cloudy weather while staying in Page, Arizona. The back country roads we wanted to travel were largely inaccessible. Thus we visited Horseshoe Bend several times because we could travel there on paved roads. The 1,000 feet deep canyon is amazing. While we did see the sun burst through storm clouds during our stay, I confess it wasn't at the time of visiting Horseshoe Bend. But the magic of Photoshop helped me get the sky I wanted!
Happy Slider Sunday!
Experienced some moments of disassociation the other morning as I ventured out into a thick layer of ground fog. The fog created a weird mental disconnect as the ordinary landscape was rendered as a monochromatic otherworld. This alone was more than plenty for my creative mind to act upon. But as I lingered, I found the brightening sky to the east particularly fascinating. I tend to be a creature of the night and my time here (and in general) is usually the later part of day and evening, sometime even past sunset. My entire psyche revolves around sunset and seeing (and composing photos) with light emanating from the western sky. My small world looks completely different during those rare occasions when I am out shooting in the early morning. Invigorating to see the visual tables turned in this manner and sense that I am exploring familiar ground for the first time. I invariably find myself shooting from angles that make absolutely no sense at other times of day. Here I love the layering effect of diminishing clarity as the landscape is enveloped by fog as it recedes from the lens. In my mind, nothing exists beyond what I can see. In these moments my tiny universe shrinks even further. Very odd to feel such confinement when standing outdoors in an open space; a rich visual and visceral dichotomy.
