Long exposure light design in the air at night with the help of 24 among candles & lanterns, my two hands & arms and my Canon EOS 250D. No editing nor post-production (except my #WhiteANGEL watermark made with another long exposure shot of light painting).

I painted these wings in a wide portion of my garden, so, they are very large :-) With many light painting sessions I became more skilled in painting in the air at night, till reaching discrete results of shapes and even lettering. My monogram logo was obtained writing with fire, in fact. But I like this early attempt because I can see the raw spontaneous strokes and just in the digital processing I happened to realize they looked like wings.

I bought the Olympus 60mm Macro Lens to get into macro and product photography. The two months that I've owned it, I've been only using it for portraits and street work...

This is a huge tree, a wild prunus that has been heavily bent by the wind and yet survived and still gives its plums in the season.

Edit April 2024:

I would like to dedicate my photo to my neighbour Romeo. This wild prunus plant is placed in his ground, a non cultivated field, at one step distance from my garden. Recently he had gifted me his tree, giving me permission to take care of it during the seasons, included the pruning of the branches. Romeo left us prematurely last January 25 2024 for a sudden heart stroke. He was only 54, a generous guy. This tree bears now his name, Romeo, and, in the moment I'm writing this memory, it's bountifully blossoming white little flowers.

There are two festival in Islam. One is Eid Ul Fiter and other one is Eid Ul Adha. After one month of fasting Muslims are allowed to enjoy Eid Ul Fiter. Around two months later they slaughter animals by the name of Allah. That is Eid Ul Adha. Although In both Eid it is meant to be joy of giving. However it also open the door to all sorts of traders.

After couple of days later of Eid Ul Adha I visited a place where raw-lather of slaughtered animals were stored. It was not easy to work in a sloppy place like that. On the other hand they had no protective gear even during the world wide COVID 19 pandemic situation. This guy in the picture was resting for a while after working long time.

The joy of new life - Beginnings by Sue Lockhart

146 46

I had the privilege of visiting a rural Health Centre in Uganda, with access to the Maternity Unit.

This photograph was taken with the mother's permission, just hours after she had given birth to her child by caesarean section. I loved the engagement between mother and child. It was particularly poignant as it was my son's birthday too (having been born 41 years previous).

The opportunity to visit the village and spend time with so many of the villagers, and our own sponsored daughter of 17 years, was a life changing experience.

Dynamic Diversity 2 - Dynamic Weather (EXPLORED!) by Evan Wexler

179 10

The dynamic diversity found in Everglades National Park is driven by the the sheer dynamism of the weather found in this environment- tropical and rainy, the Everglades can often be gloomy, grey, and wet. On the day that I took this picture, a blanket of clouds covered the entire park and boxed in the scenery. But then, as the sun began to sink towards the horizon and break through the clouds, a magic show began.

The KISS with closed eyes! Macro ph. by #WhiteANGEL #LimitEdition 6 by Ometz-Ma'ayan-Arela 字母面 Yū-Yū-Shi

106 43

A true kiss with closed eyes between my cockatiels Punky and Lidl (see previous poster and description).

This is one of the most special moments of Love, empathy and tenderness among two of my cockatiels that I had the privilege to frame and now can share further on.

This is the photo I chose as epitomic among all those I took during the special meeting when my two cockatiel girls have exchanged many cuddles, caresses and kisses.

The whole sequence with the most tender moments can be visualized at this collage poster: www.flickr.com/photos/white-angel/51851385853/in/photostr...

Taken around the end of November 2021 when Punky was 8 months (a girl) and Lidl (the most yellow one on upper position) was only 44days old. For sure Punky felt that Lidl was a puppy, a smaller creature than her and was full of cares and attentions, completely reciprocated by Lidl.

Faces of St. Pauli IV - Street Encounters by Sebastian Schmidt

29 3

Manche Bilder leben nicht von großen Ereignissen, sondern von den kleinen Momenten, die nur einen Augenblick dauern. Vor einem unscheinbaren Eisladen sitzen zwei Menschen in ihrer eigenen Welt, während das Leben vorüberzieht. Schritte kreuzen Wege, Blicke verlieren sich, und für einen kurzen Moment teilen Fremde denselben Raum, ohne sich wirklich zu kennen.

Genau diese flüchtigen Begegnungen machen das Straßenleben von St. Pauli aus. Jeder ist unterwegs zu seiner eigenen Geschichte und doch werden all diese Geschichten für einen Fotoshot Teil desselben Bildes.

Wie wirkt diese Szene auf euch? Ich freue mich wie immer über eure Gedanken, Kritik und euer Feedback zur Serie.

Some photographs are not about grand events but about the quiet moments that exist for only a second. In front of a small ice cream shop, two people are absorbed in their own world while life keeps moving around them. Paths cross, glances drift away, and for a brief moment strangers share the same space without ever truly meeting.

These fleeting encounters are part of what makes the streets of St. Pauli so fascinating. Everyone is following their own story, yet for the blink of an eye those stories become part of the same frame.

How does this scene speak to you? As always, I would love to hear your thoughts, impressions and feedback on the series.
