After the thunderstorms Saturday and Sunday, the weather cleared for Sunday evening. Steam rose from the wet roads as I drove towards Burbage. There was a little mist floating here and there.
It is not a story of single page
life is nothig but living on the Edge.
Stand along the thunder storm
don't care what the world says,
make the hell your new home
live the life in your own ways.
Get that spirit at any stage
life is nothing but living on the Edge
Don't follow the world
you are not blind,
create a new way &
let the world walk behind
Ask youself for freedom or cage
life is nothing but living on the Edge
Dry up the tears in your eye
hide the pain behind your smiles
you are alive my man, no matter
happiness is away miles.
Nightmare passes without damage
life is nothing but living on the Edge

the eternity between Monday and the next weekend...
Happy Macro Monday everyone!
This cube is part of a perpetual calendar I have, consisting of four cubes (weekday, 2x date, and month), its edge length is a little less than 1 cm (= about 0.3937007874 inches). I put it on a mirror and used a table-top tripod. Light sources were the ceiling light and a little bit of blue hour remaining light from the window.

Found this one that I didn't process from 8 years ago. I got a few good shots this evening.
For this set, I couldn't decide on a shot with the foreground in shadow or lit, as I have both. In the end I went for the foreground shadow with the middle distance the focal point.

From this exercise, I learnt that drips drop much faster than you might expect!
The other day, on the rather testing climb to the top of Mt Amos, I stopped for a breather and found myself in good company: a cluster of ancient lichen-covered rocks doing exactly the same thing. We sat there in companionable silence, admiring the view they’ve been enjoying for a few million years longer than me.
Mt Amos sits within Freycinet National Park on Tasmania’s east coast, part of the Hazards range of pink-granite peaks overlooking Coles Bay and Wineglass Bay. It’s one of my favourite spots in Australia. Though, to be fair, so is everywhere else I visit!
And when I say, “the other day,” these days that could mean anything from yesterday to about twenty years ago. 😉
Fun Fact: Many mountains are made of granite - which is gneiss of them. Geologists have been known to take them for granite ... but only once. 😉
Happy Hump Day everyone!

¿Podemos sonreír cuando estamos al borde del abismo? Supongo que solo si hacemos equilibrio... ;)
Wer meint, das Kloster oder der Leuchtturm seien die Gebäude, die der Steilküste vom Cabo Espichel am nächsten stehen, der irrt.
Hilde und ich, wir täuschten uns auch darin.
Nachdem wir den hübschen weißen hohen Turm des Leuchtfeuers entdeckt hatten, machten wir uns nämlich sofort auf den Weg dorthin... und mussten feststellen, dass es bis zur "Ecke" doch noch fast eine Stunde Weg war... die sich allerdings absolut gelohnt hat! (Flickrianos mit großem Monitor können den Fußpfad gut nachverfolgen, wenn sie 2x in das Foto klicken)
Leider konnte ich trotz intensiver Nachforschung nichts herausbekommen, was die frühere Nutzung der Häuser dort oben angeht...

With the heather already looking fantastic but a long spell of high pressure on the way, I thought I'd better pull my finger out and do a sunrise shoot.
It's been 10 years since I've photographed Bamford Edge. I've avoided it due to how busy it gets. But this morning I had the place to myself.
It was lovely to get a little mist which I wasn't expecting. I like this frame as the mist surrounds the rock formation at Great Tor. The rest of the composition is a little compromised as I wanted to include the heather, Win Hill and the reservoir with Ashopton Bridge.

One from the archives. I'd overlooked this previously but when I opened the RAW file in daylight white balance it popped.
Rare conditions at sunset after rain. The mist rose up and over the edge really quickly giving an almost sunrise quality. This was taken after most of the mist had dissipated.
Next place on my list was Birchin edge, a pleasant 45 minute walk from White edge. This is a much more interesting spot, standing just over the 1000ft mark, my map says 310 metres...it will always be feet for me, cant be doing with metres...a nice rocky edge this one with lots of short climbs and scrambles for the novice climber. on the top most rocks stands the Nelson monument erected in 1810 to the memory of Admiral Lord Nelson and to commemorate the Battle of Trafalger. Nearby a few feet from the edge there are three large boulders carved with the names of three of Nelsons ships Defiance, Royal Soverign and Victory.

Fabulous view from Offerton Edge across Bamford to Win Hill and beyond.

With the skylight in your eyes
Reaching out to gods
The sun says it's goodbyes..."

Some fabulous light yesterday afternoon. Strong winds made for some great, transient light.
The better photogenic conditions were earlier on as the clouds dispersed towards sunset.
I walked from Hooks Carr, past High Neb to Stanage End and back along the road.
