Sometimes you hike up a mountain, get both feet soaked crossing a river, get lost, and then find that one waterfalll you had been looking for, only to get home and find that all your photos were terrible. You got skunked. Then other times, you are in just the right place, at just the right time, the batteries are full and the memory card is ready, and you get magic. There are some shoots when you come home with so many keepers that you feel spoiled! That was this shoot. I live in Oregon. I love the State, but I have to say, we are not the best when it comes to Christmas lights. Sorry, it's true. So, to get the full experience and we drove all the way out to Idaho, where they seem to get it right. This is Caldwell. This was actually about 3 years ago in Caldwell, but I got so many great images that I keep going back to that well for Christmas images.

 

In fact, I tried to shoot a different Christmas light image this year, but Oregon got me again. There is a covered bridge about an hour and half form where I live that gets a full Christmas decorating every year. I called the City to see when they would be up, she told me, so we headed out to shoot it. Well, I guess I got the info wrong, because there were no lights. So tried again the next weekend, only to find that the official lighting of the bridge was the next day. Oh Oregon. So about $150 in gas and 6 hours of my life would never get back, I still have no image of that bridge. If you want Christmas, go to Idaho.

This QM was the size of a Comma - but had the diagnostic question mark on its wings below. Black is their summer form - and they have that beautiful lavender trim.

Watson Lake was formed during the early 1900s by the construction of a dam on Granite Creek. It is a reservoir for the City of Prescott, AZ and is located about 4 miles outside of the city. It is known for its scenic granite dells. The area has camping and picnic facilities, but when we visited on a late September afternoon we only encountered another photographer and a couple of hikers and the lake was remarkably tranquil.

Prescott is located in central AZ and at an elevation of just over a mile so it is both cooler and greener than the Phoenix metropolitan area. The city was the territorial capital of Arizona in 1867 and the downtown area holds on to its history with numerous small shops and restaurants in an area surrounding the Yavapai County Courthouse and park. One of the streets adjacent to the courthouse is known as "Whiskey Row" and apparently was a notorious red light district.

I petali degli Iris, che risplendono al sole di maggio, somigliano a vele, dispiegate a catturare la luce. Una soluzione adattativa enfatizzata, quest'ultima, per attirare l'attenzione, ma che presenta evidenti limiti. Con i primi temporali primaverili, infatti, le vele, collocate all'estremità di lunghi steli, finiscono per catturare le raffiche di vento e per causare l'abbattimento del fiore. In realtà, a ben vedere, non è stata la Natura a "inventare" queste forme, ma l'uomo ..... ..

An image I’ve been pondering over for a while. It was nearly the first photo to post on my return from the Lakes early November but for some reason I didn’t and moved on to other images, now with 4 seascapes in row it was time to move inland.

The Himalayas, or Himalaya, form a mountain range in Asia separating the plains of the Indian subcontinent from the Tibetan Plateau.

 

The Himalayan range has many of the Earth's highest peaks, including the highest, Mount Everest. The Himalayas include over fifty mountains exceeding 7,200 metres (23,600 ft) in elevation, including ten of the fourteen 8000m peaks. By contrast, the highest peak outside Asia – Aconcagua, in the Andes – is 6,961 metres (22,838 ft) tall.

 

The Himalayan range is bordered on the northwest by the Karakoram and Hindu Kush ranges, on the north by the Tibetan Plateau, and on the south by the Indo-Gangetic Plain. The Himalayas are distinct from the other great ranges of central Asia, although sometimes the term Himalaya is loosely used to include the Karakoram and some of the other ranges. The Himalayas – inhabited by 52.7 million people – are spread across five countries: India, Nepal, Bhutan, China and Pakistan, with the first three countries having sovereignty over most of the range. Some of the world's major rivers, the Indus, the Ganges, and the Tsangpo-Brahmaputra, rise in the Himalayas, and their combined drainage basin is home to roughly 600 million people. The Himalayas have profoundly shaped the cultures of the Indian subcontinent; many Himalayan peaks are sacred in Hinduism and Buddhism.

 

Lifted by the subduction of the Indian tectonic plate under the Eurasian Plate, the Himalayan mountain range runs, west-northwest to east-southeast, in an arc 2,400 kilometres (1,500 mi) long.

The sensuous forms of the huge leaves of the Sierra Corn Lilly plant. I never tire of the amazing patterns. Hopefully, before I pass on from old age, I can master enough of Topaz etc. to change the background...........hopefully.

In the foreground are the hoodoos of the Chiricahua Natinal Monument (see below for another view of these geological structures).

 

In the distance is the caldera of the Turkey Creek volcano, which erupted 27 million years ago.

 

An information placque says, "The eruption of the Turkey Creek Caldera was 1,000 times greater than the 1980 eruption of Mt. St. Helens. It spewed more than 100 cubic miles of magma, in the form of incandescent ash and pumice, into the atmosphere and buried a region of at least 1,200 square miles. This thick blanket of ash and pumice fusd to form the rhyolite tuff we see today. Tn places it is 2,000 feet thick. The ash clouds circled the globe, affecting weather for years afterward.

The ice crystals formed at the base of stems of Frostweed, Verbesina virginica (Asteraceae) have been given many names - among them: ice ribbons, ice flowers, ice fringes, ice fingers, ice filaments, ice leaves, frost flowers, frost ribbons, frost freaks, frost beards, frost castles (Forrest M. Mims III www.forrestmims.org/gallery.html), crystallofolia (coined by Bob Harms at The University of Texas), rabbit ice and rabbit butter. It is the sap that crystalizes in freezing conditions that we experience now in Texas.

I think of the brown tint images here as fighting forms. More detailed descrption to come. Below is a basic meaning of the title series.

 

Tenkō (転向, literally, changing direction) is a Japanese term referring to the coerced ideological conversions of Japanese socialists and communists who, between 1925 and 1945, were induced to renounce leftist ideologies and enthusiastically embrace the Emperor-centric, capitalist, and imperialist ideology favored by the state. Tenkō was typically performed under duress, most often in police custody, and was a condition for release (although surveillance and harassment would often continue thereafter). But it was also a broader phenomenon, a kind of cultural reorientation in the face of national crisis, that did not always involve direct repression

Mist forming in Little Langdale on the drive in was encouraging, although a stiff breeze on the Wrynose Pass wasn't promising. However, it seemed like the cold valley air was being pushed up Great Langdale from the south, and rising over the Langdale Pikes to give some amazing atmospherics for a couple of hours around dawn. Coupled with haze in the valleys gave a wonderful start to the holiday.

These were formed by splashing water along the edge of the Ottawa River.

I set off form the great ocean road 2 days ago with the main goal of getting a shot of this iconic pier over the next 7 days or so before I duck back to Sydney for a few days.

 

From about lunch time today I had my eye on the forming clouds just hoping they would hang around until sunset. They didn't, they rarely do. However this set rolled over the horizon and put on a real welcome to SA show.

 

Uploading late as it took me ages to align the pano, I hadn't though to re-adjust the pivot point on my pano head for the new lens. So I had to manually align then use auto blend cs5, got there in the end.
