Here is DTW's airport tunnel again but this time in green. I wish I had gone back to capture all the colours. This space is always how I imagined something in the future would be...
I decided to take this photo because the water was so clear it was possible to see how deeply it plunged into the pool. This is a picture of how I imagine a waterfall to be.
Ein kleiner Junge am Wegesrand vom Karnevalsumzug, hat schnell bei den großen abgeschaut und hält, statt sich zu bücken und die Kamelle von der Straße aufzuheben, mit bittendem Blick seine Tüte hoch.
Das Wort Kamelle “Karamell” ab – und in der Tat hat man früher während der Karnevalsumzüge vor allem Karamell-Bonbons unters Volk gebracht.

This is an image I've had in my mind for over 7yrs since I first went to take a look at the quirky Glasgow Kelvin College (known as the Springburn College which was formerly the John Wheatley College, the North Glasgow College and Stow College). That marvelllous sharp, pointy edge is a really eyecatching, architectural flourish. I imagined it at sunrise reflecting dark night with stars to the north (left) and to the south(right) the warm skies of sunrise. Turns out my memory is not so good because when I got there today there's actually no real window surface for reflection. This image is unashamedly edited to produce the kind of idea I'd had in mind all that time. Today became the day to try and execute it. I'd hoped to get out late last night for landscapes with the Milky Way bit it was cloudy and clear skies not forecast till well after midnight so I turned in, knackered. I optimistically set my alarm for 5am hoping to get out somewhere and catch dark skies (moonset 4am) then some sunrise shots. But at 5am I was too cosy so I turned on the radio instead and caught England winning the superover versus New Zealand in the deciding T20 match of their series. I lay in bed till about 6.30am when my inner voice screaming 'lazy git!' in my head finally drove me for my longjohns and woolly hat and I headed forth deciding today was the day to prowl the surprisingly empty streets of Springburn.
Moving in the direction of Night landscapes with Architecture, the Shard is one of those buildings that simply cannot be ignored, viewable from almost every corner of central London this skyscraper caters for every commercial need, from offices to hotels, restaurants to viewing platforms.
The Shard also referred to as the Shard of Glass, Shard London Bridge and formerly London Bridge Tower, is a 95-storey skyscraper in Southwark, London, that forms part of the London Bridge Quarter development.
Walking alongside the Thames at 4am it's hard not to miss the bright lights and colours of London Bridge Quarter development, access is surprisingly easy, but you should keep your wits about you, for its easy to get distracted by the big city and place yourself in a vulnerable position. Thankfully I was buddied up with Mark so safety in numbers and all that.
One thing I would have liked to have done on this adventure would have been a series of long exposures of the London buses, in preparation for a talk I have managed to rope myself into giving. oh well, I can always pop to Worcester one night :)

These two visitors to Orkney were clearly enjoying their meal and drink, in addition to the harbour view out of the first floor window earlier this evening. I was delighted that they both agreed that I could post my photo to the Internet!
We saw these birds all over Zimbabwe and Botswana. It's a glossy starling (i think it's the cape/red-shouldered although I'm not sure). They're very eyecatching due to the gorgeous teal/blue/purple feathers and also their startling orange/yellow irises.
This is this year's art installation up by Grand Pre, Nova Scotia. It's called "Door 17" and is by Nicole Evans and Pat Farrell.

Bridges in Singapore at night look stunning from below.
From a late night shoot with the gajman. We drove up to Punggol to shoot something different, and were very happy with the results.

Wax, metal, heat, & rust make this texture. The art department uses these sheets of metal to put out fires on burning wax. The texture created is absolute art!

Moments later I showed Diana my photo of her bicycle - however she was too occupied in painting a nice harbour scene to be able to discuss its "photographic merits" with me!
Incidentally all of the high hills in the background are on Hoy - Orkney's second largest island, which lies between the "Orkney Mainland" and the County of Caithness, which is south of the Pentland Firth.
The Devon General Metro Cammell bodied 'Sea Dog' class of convertable Atlanteans were the stuff of legend to most enthusiasts of the day. They were both eyecatching and long-lived in most cases.
A late friend of mine liked them so much, even though he lived the best part of 200 miles distant from their operating area, he bought one for preservation when they were withdrawn. That example was 932 GTA seen here in the picture (and during his ownership) on a return visit to Torquay to attend an event.

Preso Ao Tempo
Perco sono
Prezo o tempo que me apressa
Peço a pressa que me acalme
Paro e penso em não pensar.
Perco a pressa
Prezo a alma minha calma
Peço a calma que se apresse
Paro e penso em me apressar
Saudadeio
Prezo o vento busco ar gentil nas profundezas de si
Que se perde o presente, nos segundos .... A cada segundo...Acabam os segundos
Nem me apresse
Calmaria que se acalme
Guarde o tempo num vestido
Pra sambar no carnaval
Nem se apresse
Nessa terra nada foge
Onde aqui ninguém se morre
Penso e paro em me apressar
Nem me apresse
Calmaria que se acalme
Guarde o tempo num vestido
Pra sambar no carnaval
Nem se apresse
Nessa terra nada foge
Onde aqui ninguém se morre
Paro e penso em não pensar.
