Focal B&W
View allAll Photos Tagged Focal
This is what a visitor sees when exits from the other side of the upper Antelope Canyon. I've made this photo for the second time after seven years and the result is almost the same; but this time I was more prepared to capture its stunning textures details; then I underexposed a little in order to capture all blue and purple hues that the sensor was able to register, maintaining the strong light coming from the outside. The result is something that I printed on a metal surface like aluminium in a vertical, supersaturated composition.
I've always been intrigued by the texture and look produced by shooting with a long focal length lens in a snow storm. This year with COVID and staying home I've had more time to study my everyday surrounding like this view from my deck of the trees and woods at the back of my property, I look at them everyday and especially when it snows. I've been trying different compositions but none were exactly what I wanted. That being said, I did use one in the icicle shot that I posted. I thought I'd try again and I think I found what I was looking for. A nice composition with pleasing lines and balance. I like it because it sits good with me, the chaos of the smaller branches with their horizontal and diagonal flow support the strong near vertical lines of the trees leaning to the left and then leaning to the right. Then the cold texture of the snow completes the image! Well that's what I was thinking anyway. I hope you enjoy this bit of my winter snow storm.

Something different today. Something dark and eerie:

The images are the result of refinement with the help of weighting "::2 and ::3". The chaos parameter c30 in combination with s1000 makes for a certain self-willedness of the AI.

EPOD ( Earth-Science Picture Of Day ) #1 - April 13, 2021
DESCRIPTION:
On 16 February , at about 17:00, there was a short but violent eruption of volcano Etna. The eruption begun with an explosion followed by a massive lava fountains rising from the South-Est crater, one of the summit craters. This phase lasted just under two hours, then quickly the phenomenon decreased in intensity and after few hours the volcano went back to sleep. The picture shows the South Est crater at a time when the paroxysmal phase is over, but the lava keeps to coming out from the cracks of the crater created by the explosion . The incandescent fumes that partially cover the crater , come from the Central crater and from the other summit craters.

The Wood Duck is one of the most stunningly pretty of all waterfowl. Males are iridescent chestnut and green, with ornate patterns on nearly every feather; the elegant females have a distinctive profile and delicate white pattern around the eye. These birds live in wooded swamps, where they nest in holes in trees or in nest boxes put up around lake margins. They are one of the few duck species equipped with strong claws that can grip bark and perch on branches.
A marshy swamp in the mountains? I know, crazy right? This sits at around 3,800ft in elevation between Clay and Macon County in Western North Carolina. I had considered doing a big impressive sunset over the swamp here, but found this composition by the lakeside as the light was waning a bit. So I scuttled my plans to try and get some decent light shooting from the road and hunkered down on the soft wet ground shooting across the swamp into this mountain top in the distance. Found this log in the foreground, unfortunately I ignored my own advice and didn't bend this sapling back and it sits prominently in the bottom right. Otherwise I enjoy this shot, the colors, contrast, light reflections.

A K&F CPL to help brighten the blues in the sky, cut through the reflections a bit.. This is a focus stack of 42 images.
Caught a glimpse of a gentleman with a hat while I was turning round and managed to take a last second snapshot
While geocaching, I drove on Grandpa's Road, heading south.
The drive was a challenge for the rental midsize SUV, but the view was great!

Dieser muntere Geselle saß auf dem Dach und hielt Ausschau. Ein schönes kräftiges und gesundes Tier.

Australia is suffering a major climatic disaster. Those infernal fires are of gigantic proportions, that are hard to imagine for most of us. Climate change is real. Young people have realized and are shouting for help, but sadly, politicians seem to don't care. In Mexico our ignorant president are supporting fossil fuels instead of renovable energies, which is a tremendous error for our future. Hope we can make a change before this is unavoidable.

Exploring the "Blue Hour". The period before, and in this case, after the sun has set and everything goes from a light blue to a deep blue (or vice-versa). Makes a change from the sunset shots.....
Once again this is a stitched panorama, favouring combining multiple images at a longer focal length rather than one image at a short focal length, capturing more detail.
The new colourful pillars outside of the central station in The Hague caught my attention. Wanted to include people to create a focal point, but in a blurry manner. I went for the correct exposure of the pillars because I liked how the overexposed part let the travelers stand out more.
