The rising winter sun over the magical Jökulsárlón lagoon on Iceland's south coast.
Looks best on black.
Comments as always appreciated, but please no flashy award codes.
A water collision in a bubble as the bubble dissipates, the light is bounced off of a coloured background with 4 speedlight flashes, this is the first time I've tried to get a splash within the bubble as it bursts.
Mid-pop. I really like how you can see here that they don't just pop all at once, but they tear apart starting from the initial rupture point, racing across to the opposite side.

Canyonlands most iconic location at spring with Milky way rising. Reached here few minutes before 3 AM and got the whole place to myself and the star studded clear skies. I was at these location a day before with 10 people already and clouds around same time. I enjoyed that eerie lonely time here felt like I went to mars and touching the stars with my fingers.
The shot is composed of two rows 15 images each for the sky, came to a total of 30 images on my 28mm. Setting 10s ISO 1600 f1.4. Exposure was complete around 3:45 AM for sky. Then had to wait till the twilight and shot about 14 images of the foreground. At the foreground exposure time there were around 12 people and everyone was kind enough to move back their tripod few steps back so I can finish my foreground pano without their tripod on the way. So completed foreground exposure around 6 AM. Sunrise time on this day was 6:45.
For Purists:
Even though this is a blend of shots two different times at same locations, I did not move milky way rising location it was at same location from 3:30 to 3:45 AM.
As much I enjoyed editing this huge panorama, hope you enjoy too.
Thank you....JD
Well, the 2002 Ford Exploder made a milestone today...200,000 miles! It hasn't been all fun and roses in the man vs. machine relationship, often times cursing Ford engineers. But we have been on some memorable trips and some incredible chases over the years. I pretty much know her faults and quirks, rely on her 4 wheel drive and tight turning radius. I guess the peeling hood paint (Thanks again Ford) and oncoming rust just add character.

Found this sitting on my hard drive and thought today is a good day to share it with you.
Sometimes, spring explodes in glory unexpected. Colour, light, and, location come together, bringing breathless wonder, and promises of summer. New life, new hope, new outlook on life.
This was just an experiment which turned out to look pretty cool. Here, the Allium wasn’t flourishing yet and hence I focused on the center of the flower head, where I turned it into black and white to enhance the exploding look. I hope you like it and I wish you good start into the new week!
Hmmm it's so hot the slabs are exploding in the Grassmarket.
And if you are interested - here's the story...

Exploding Grassmarket slabs just couldn't stand the heat
Date: 11 June 2009
By MARK McLAUGHLIN
IT has taken almost a month of investigation by engineers but the mystery of the exploding Grassmarket pavement has finally been solved – it couldn't stand the heat.
Two slabs newly laid as part of the multi-million-pound revamp of the area cracked last month, with everything from a gas blast to an electrical fault being blamed.
Now experts have ruled that "thermal expansion", in the sweltering May heat of 16
was to blame for the Caithness slabs breaking.
They are confident, however, the problem was caused by a fault in two particular slabs and that the piazza should survive the summer unscathed.
City centre councillor Joanna Mowat said: "My sources tell me that it wasn't a mythological creature or some such thing that caused it. The answer was firmly in the realms of engineering.
"The council got an expert to look at it and he found that it wasn't an explosion underneath, but that it was due to thermal expansion.
"The heat causes the slabs to expand and the reason these two slabs had come up was because they were slightly flawed.
"I did initially find it hard to believe that this expansion could just affect two slabs, but I was assured that they were faulty.
"My immediate concern was that we were going to have stones erupting throughout the Grassmarket, but the project manager who assigned the expert to look at the slabs said it was isolated to these two stones."
A city council spokesman said that no other slabs in the area appeared to be affected.
He said: "(Engineers] did identify that there was something wrong with the thickness of the slabs. As you would expect, these slabs come under the influence of external forces, and as long as all of the slabs are of an even depth and width they can bear it, but if the slab is faulty and can't absorb that level of force it will 'pop'.
"They have identified these particular slabs as the only ones that are faulty.
"The contractors have accepted the liability for this and are making the necessary repairs at no extra cost to the council."
He added: "The contractor is currently on site carrying out the necessary remedial work. The area will reopen on Friday."
The area had been fenced off for the last month, to the annoyance of local traders who hoped that the workmen had gone for good when the £5 million revamp was completed in December.
Susie Christie, manager of Costume Ha Ha, whose shop stands close to where the slabs erupted, said the constant work has affected her trade.
She said: "Our recent footfall figures show that we were 40 per cent down last month, compared to the same period the year before.
"It's not been helped by the fact that there is currently refurbishment working going on in the building above us, and we're obscured by scaffolding.
"The work on the Grassmarket just seems never ending."

The next set of pieces in the pool are here in the center and I was really taken by the selection and color combination. There were the creamy oranges mixed with the yellows and greens. It's almost as though these pieces exploded out of the water to bloom in the sun. Enjoy!

About the series
This series of shots were taken on 10-22-2010 at Cheekwood Botanical Garden. Dale Chihuly, world renowned glass artist, was having a garden exhibition where he installs pieces into the gardens to enhance the appeal of both the gardens and his work. This is the fifth Chihuly exhibition that I've gone to and the fourth that I've been able to shoot. I really enjoy the mixture of the glass and the gardens, and it makes for great photo opportunities.
"I love to juxtapose the manmade and the natural to sort of make people wonder, is it manmade or did it come from nature? That's a very important part of my work."

I'm well outside my comfort zone today.....
I nearly deleted this shot when I downloaded Sunday night's pictures to the laptop. But there was something about it that I found appealing. It's a shot of the sun setting over Earlswood Lake and I was trying out that 'zoomy' thing where you shift the zoom as you're shooting. Maybe someone can tell me if there's a better, more technical term I should be using :))
Part of the common and the ministract sets.
went to my studios rooftop and found this beautiful sunset, unusual during this season, just when I pointed my camera; the crows started flying all over. Probably they felt threatened.....Thanks to the crows...ha ha!
