I displayed miniatures with Licca and took some photos of them for a change... It's so fun! ^_^
Finally I decided the color of the sewing boxes and finished painting them. But the work to sand their surface is still left... that's a little troublesome. sigh~^^;
Parallel lines in the Cotswolds Lavender fields reaching over the horizon.
Grass is grown between the lavender to reduce soil erosion, but it also makes a brilliant contrast of colours!
The lavender has now been cropped and the fields will not be open again until next June.

Heaven For Everyone - the genial song performed by Freddie Mercury (Queen) is exactly the perfect title for the region where I live.
Here the road can be seen where I walked some days ago through my beloved Mühlviertel in the Northern part of Upper Austria ...
Don´t forget to listen to the song :-))
A location I've wanted to visit for some time is 'Sculpture by the Lakes' near Dorchester in Dorset. It's a sculpture park featuring many wonderful works by renowned sculptor Simon Gudgeon. The art is thoughtfully placed in the beautifully landscaped grounds, and it's well worth a visit, both for photographers and art lovers alike.

The cataclysmic 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines was the second largest volcanic eruption of the twentieth century, and by far the largest eruption to affect a densely populated area. It occurred on June 15, 1991. I was part of the evacuation and relief effort. It was the last action of any significance I would perform in the US Navy.
The eruption produced high-speed avalanches of hot ash and gas, giant mudflows, and a cloud of volcanic ash hundreds of miles across that ushered in climate change across the globe. The resulting damage to US assets in the Philippines was pivotal in the decision to close the massive strategic US military bases there. Many US servicemen lost friends and family in the ordeal never to be heard from again. The impacts of the eruption continue to this day.
Here are three empty Jelly or Jam jars, except for the one I filled with Jelly Beans.
The jars are strangely crooked, to my eye. When I examined them, after the photoshoot, I discovered that they really ARE crooked... although the Jelly bean jam jar is ok; I just put the lid on crooked!
Anyway, that's J!
Things around here are getting more busy. I haven't taken a K photo yet. We'll see.
This was taken from my holiday in France last month, No words can describe how sad the news is from last night.
This needs to end!
This was from Ile De Re, France.

AAW May 15 - 22: Black and White Shadows
WIT: I was at a restaurant during a rain storm, but the sun shone through the window and curtain for about 5 seconds before disappearing behind the clouds again, so I only had a chance at one shot when I saw the shadows thrown across the floor.
BW conversion was in-camera, and in post just cropped and slightly upped the contrast.

Amboseli’s sunsets are a primordial mixture of dust and mire, serenity and struggle, consummation and genesis. Its skies are infused with the sanguine luster of lives exchanged. Immensely infrequent are those unaffected by its power and allure. Moral turpitude and greed plague those worthless and debased souls who slaughter for perverse amusement. #Elephants #Amboseli
Crazy how a little treat can draw everyone's attention :P!
Truth be told, I rarely use treats to take pictures. Just talking to them usually works for most, those who love their mom more than anything :).
Listen; there's a hell of a good universe next door: let's go.

Actually, for our cat, this enforced lock-in has not been very relaxing. She likes her space, and having all four of us around all the time has resulted in just too much attention.
Snapped with a Pentacon 135/2.8 zebra.

Last week I was in San Diego to help train some of the folks at Best Buy. One of the more extensive retail training programs I have ever seen, Best Buy takes key people out of their store for a week... flies them to someplace like San Diego. There they spend time with professional photographers and manufacturer's reps learning the gear and techniques needed to talk with you.
One of the stops was "Action".
- My page has been visited 346,949 times and I thank you all for taking the time to view my images and follow my work!

This was shot on December 20, the night before winter solstice.
I waited till the last light barely sweeped the horizon and highlighted the details on the waves and pebbles at Larkollen Bay, southern Norway.
My mission was to use the light in a specific way that only the objects just above water surface was lighted, while the body of water itself was cast in shadows.
A tribute to winter solstice you might say ;-)
The winter solstice (vintersolverv) occurs at the instant when the Sun's position in the sky is at it`s greatest angular distance on the other side of the equatorial plane from the observer's hemisphere. This means that from now, the days will be gradually have longer periods of daylight.
Worldwide, interpretation of the event has varied from culture to culture, but most cultures have held a recognition of rebirth, involving holidays, festivals, gatherings, rituals or other celebrations around that time.
The word solstice derives from Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still).
I wish peace and happiness to every living being.

About three years ago now, I really began to look at railroad photography differently, as more of a creative outlet than a documentation of what I see, as I did for many, many years before that. The group of photographers that shoots railroads creatively is a relatively small bunch, but that makes it easier to meet new people, and find inspiration from others.
One of the first that I followed on here was Mike Hurley, a rail enthusiast from the United Kingdom who also had a huge love of American railroading. I was immediately blown away by what he could do with a camera - I had never thought anyone could create such art that involved railroads, but he did it. Countless nights were spent going through his photos on here, again and again, wondering "just how did he do that?" I was extremely fortunate enough to almost instantly get a follow back from him as soon as I followed him, and as I began challenging myself more and more to be creative, he was always quick to comment on my uploads with loads of encouraging compliments, and a genuine interest in the subjects I chose to cover. We also bonded heavily over our mutual love of the dark and moody scenes and, of course, guitar.
Today, I found out that Mike had lost a long battle with depression in May. My heart aches, and to say I'm saddened would be a terrible understatement. I only wish I had known much sooner, soon enough so that I could have told him how much his words meant to me, how much his work inspired me, and how much I owed him for being the one that transformed this hobby into so much more to me.
One thing I repeatedly promised Mike was, on his next trip to the United States, I would give him a tour of this railroad - the South Shore, and I can already imagine his enthusiasm seeing even just a photo of these four geeps on a loaded coal train.
This is for you, buddy.
Rest in peace, Mike. Thank you for making me the photographer I am today.
I call this The Singing Tree as it always look like it's in full song.
"When I Grow Up" is a song from the musical Matilda. Its music and lyrics were written by Tim Minchin. Based on the book Matilda by Roald Dahl. The book Matilda is about bright little girl who is very eager to learn. Eventually, her insensitive parents send her to a school run by Miss (The) Trunchbull. She is a cruel authoritarian that loathes children. Matilda befriends her school teacher, Miss Honey.
The book was a favourite book read for my children growing up. I too loved the book and many years later I love the musical and I love this song and the lyrics AND I love Tim Minchin.
