a welcoming gradient is a photograph I took late at night while on the road. this was created in-camera with minor exposure tweaks in post processing.
Thanks for viewing and your comments are always inspiring.
Powering up the gradient on a dull, overcast day in the Hope Valley, is Stanier rebuilt 'Royal Scot' 4-6-0 no.46100 'Royal Scot’ with the Saphos Trains Wolverhampton-York "White Rose" tour.
a life is not a flat plane. it is a steep and unforgiving gradient. a hard line drawn between the shadow of the past and the bright, unknown summit. there are no spectators. there is only the rough texture of the concrete and the solitary rhythm of the climb. the destination is not the point. the upward movement is everything.

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Previously unpublished shot from June 2017.
While I am not out on the street, thankfully, I am now officially homeless and am on the list for emergency temporary accommodation. I may find myself in a place without Internet access and could be in that position for 6-8 months or more.
Also realising just how small one bedroom apartments are means that in the next 4 weeks I have to streamline my life like never before. I will have to get rid so much of my life I fear there will be nothing left to hang on to. I know that possessions are ultimately unimportant, they are a part of our own personal stories and I am not ready to rid myself of so much of them. I have little choice.
In the 'temporary' accommodation I could also end up in the middle of nowhere. Isolated. I cannot express how terrifying this all is while suffering from C-PTSD where comfort, continuity and safety are paramount. It is taking almost all of my effort to remain in a position to be able to do even simple things.
I know that you must all be sick of hearing negative things from me. It helps me to write out and share these things and please know that when, or if, positive things happen, I will share those with fervour.
I thank you for all of your support. Every little helps. Take care.
I do find this island photogenic and the weather was great for LE work, processing was minimal here, spot removal, a little contrast and sharpening on the island and a slight gradient to the sky, it took several shots as the incoming tide was disturbing the tripod legs, exposure time was 4 1/2 min with a Heliopan ND 3 (a 10 stop I think) a great filter, I have dropped it from ten feet up and although it's a bit loose in it's mounting it didn't even scratch! I also converted it to B+W
When leaving my home through the front door, I have two options: going uphill or downhill. Down to the village and the small river (River Ver) or up to the top of the Chilterns with their fields, paddocks and woods. The brick wall gives you a reliable impression of the gradient one has to face when going up (or down). Walking is okay, cycling is a challenge. Leica M246 Monochrome, Elmarit-M 2.8/28.
Country Life, my cosmos garden
田舎暮らし・コスモス園
Of all the plants I planted this year, this was the only one with small, gradient-colored cosmos flowers. I liked it so much that I have already harvested the seeds.
今年植えた中でこのグラデーション色の小さなお花のコスモスが一本だけ含まれていました。気に入ったので、種を収穫済み。来年のお楽しみです。

SAMUEL BECKETT, >Watt<
The Keighley and Worth Valley Railway in West Yorkshire have historically held Spring Galas in early March, but because of COVID this year's event had to be cancelled.
The Railway, however, is once again planning to re-open on Saturday 17th April when hopefully the present restrictions will be lifted.
So by way of a personal homage, I'm posting three further shots this time taken during the final day of 8th March 2020.
Secondly, at 15.00pm en route to Oxenhope, we see BR Standard 2MT 2-6-0 No. 78022 piloting LMSR Stanier "Jubilee" Class 6P5F 4-6-0 No. 45596 Bahamas - both working hard as they climb the steep gradient after departing from Keighley.
A colorful winter sunset taken in high-res mode through my Agfa Agnar 85mm f4.5. This lens came off of an old Agfa Isolette that my Grandfather bought in Germany during his time in the army in the late 40’s. It’s an interesting, surprisingly sharp, lens with extra sentimental value.
....gradient experiment with a previous work....

Caen Hill Locks, Wiltshire
Situated on the Kennet & Avon Canal the 29 locks have a rise of 237 feet in 2 miles (72 m in 3.2 km) or a 1 in 44 gradient. The locks come in three groups: the lower seven locks, Foxhangers Wharf Lock to Foxhangers Bridge Lock, are spread over 3⁄4 mile (1.2 km); the next sixteen locks form a steep flight in a straight line up the hillside and are designated as a scheduled monument and are also known as one of the Seven Wonders of the Waterways. Because of the steepness of the terrain, the pounds between these locks are very short. As a result, fifteen of them have unusually large sideways-extended pounds, to store the water needed to operate them. A final six locks take the canal into Devizes. The locks take 5–6 hours to traverse in a boat
One I had not got around to posting. Back in September I went on a couple of days to see if I could get the sun rising over the locks between the trees. Alas I gather I was probably a day or 2 late but I did get one of those misty mornings where the mist hung over the canal and was gradually burnt off as the sun rose. Nice to get the narrowboats moored there and quite an atmospheric morning with just me and a couple of other Togs around.

Another of the places that most impressed me of the Cantabria Coast.
Photographing the north coast, it becomes a difficult task for all the variables to fit, coincidence of sunrise-sunset with high-low tides depending on each place, having good lights and whenever you can look for less-seen frames, it complicates a lot things.
On the technical side, say that I used the combination of a ND four steps filter and a soft gradient ND three steps filter.
I hope you like it. Have a nice Sunday. :)

No.6233 Duchess of Sutherland climbs up the gradient from Whitacre Junction with Vintage trains "The White Rose" from Tyseley to York on a gloomy December morning. 15-12-2021.
Taken from behind the fence on a public footpath.
Hiking the San Tan Mountains and messing around with my zoom lens.
I always find the mountain ranges fascinating as the sun sets, and how the color gradients subtly change the farther you look. Such a beautiful sight.
Took a PhotoShop tutorial and made it my own
I was bored on the WWW so I started looking at GIMP tutorials on Youtube. Found one on Gradients and Layer Masks that looked interesting but it was for PhotoShop so I kind of wrote down the steps and adapted it to GIMP.
This is a first attempt, same photo in B/W and Color that you kind of "blend together" with a gradient and a layer mask. Still needs some work on the process but I'll get it figured out eventuallly.
FWIW this is a shot of the waterfront in Barcelona Spain. I took this on one of our transatlantic cruises back in '22.
