A gathering of 'Grandessa' hybrid argyranthemum daisies, in my garden during Spring of 2020. The image has been refined in Adobe Lightroom and given a slender black frame. These are one of my favourite types of daisy to have in the garden. Always available in Bunnings garden centre at Dural, where else? lol

And here's my new thing on Spotify and Youtube Music - an amazing group of artists from around the world called 'Playing For Change'. They do cool cover versions of famous songs, and have really good video clips. This is their version of Stevie Wonder's 'Higher Ground':

I like joking about Coldplay but at last... I like their music because of the emotions that goes to the heart.
Hear "Higher Power“ with me and enjoy the sunrise that I caught in Altnau of Switzerland!
Thank you very much for your kind visits, your faves, comments and group awards!

The berlin cube cloudified and kaleidoscoped for Sliders Sunday. Composite made of two images taken there in mid July. The first image is a capture I took standing right next to the cube's facade and pointing the camera straight up. In Photoshop, I copied the layer with the original image, flipped the new layer horizontally, and cross-faded it with the first layer by using the blending mode "Overlay" at 75 % opacity. 100 % would have resulted in a punchier look on the right side, but I rather liked the softness and that it somehow looks as if the cube would slowly dissolve into or merge with the clouds. The next step was to replace the sky above the cube(s). For that I used a small part of the very first image I'd taken at the cube; I was just about to compose the image in the viewfinder when I noticed the bird, and decided to skip the composing part in favour of the bird ;-) (Birds, just like photographers, love the new berlin cube. There was a constant coming and going on the cube's roof, and it seems that, while not even all new tenants have moved in, yet, the cube's roof has already been occupied by the bird population that lives in the Hauptbahnhof area.) Next, I gently HDRified the finished composite in Aurora, then went into ON1 where I added some sunbeams to the upper sky part of the image, and added a soft glow for an extra airy look.
Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone, have a nice and safe new week ahead!
Kleine Spiegel-Spielerei vom "berlin cube" für den Sliders Sunday. Dieses Bild ist zusammengesetzt aus zwei verschiedenen Fotos, die ich dort Mitte Juli gemacht habe. Für Foto Nr. 1 hatte ich fast an der Fassade des Cubes gelehnt und die Kamera direkt nach oben gerichtet. Dieses Foto habe ich in Photoshop auf einer kopierten Ebene einfach horizontal gespiegelt und mit dem darunter liegenden Originalbild bei 75 % Deckkraft ineinanderkopiert. Danach habe ich den Himmel über "den Cubes" ersetzt, und zwar mit einem kleinen Teil des allerersten Fotos, das ich dort gemacht hatte. Ich war gerade dabei gewesen, eine gute Position zu finden, um den Cube möglichst sauber ausgerichtet fotografieren zu können, bemerkte dann aber den Vogel und beschloss, das saubere Ausrichten zugunsten des Vogels auf das nächste Foto zu verschieben ;-) Überhaupt ist der neue Cube schon sehr beliebt bei den Vögeln, die rund um den Berliner Hauptbahnhof leben. Während längst noch nicht alle Mieter in den Cube eingezogen sind, hat die Vogel-Gang vom Hauptbahnhof bereits das gesamte Dach in Beschlag genommen ;-) Bearbeitungstechnisch habe ich das fertig zusammengesetzte Bild erst in Aurora sanft HDRisiert und dann, in ON1, dem oberen Teil ein paar Sonnenstrahlen und zum Abschluss dem gesamten Foto ein leichtes Leuchten verpasst, um den luftig-leichten Look zu betonen.
Ich wünsche Euch einen guten Start in die neue Woche, bleibt gesund, liebe Flickr-Freunde :-)
This is about 140 meters higher in elevation than the location in the previous photo. Here, the autumn foliage would soon come to an end.

ここは前の写真の場所から140mほど標高の高い、竜ヶ原湿原です。ここでは紅葉は間も無く終わりを迎える様子でした。
Poor Santa was getting so cold sitting in the snow, he decided to climb the tree to get some sunshine. And this way, he can keep his eyes on the chimney :)

.... the sheep are taken down from the higher ground to the lower land at lambing time. An interesting feature of this landscape is that in the middle ground you can still clearly see the outline of what were known as Lazy Beds. In Famine time when the potato crop in lower areas was being destroyed by potato blight people moved higher up - often into areas with little or no soil, and unsuitable for tillage - trying desperately to grow enough potatoes to feed their families. The hope was that their might be no blight on the higher ground. Sadly they were wrong. Their futile efforts at cultivation still mark the landscape in many areas such as this in West Mayo, one of the areas worst hit in famine times (Circa 1847).

A nice old stone bridge spanning river Meavy near the small village of the same name. We spotted some trout in the crystal clear and still water. I especially like the gnarly and moss-covered tree mirrored on the water surface and framed by the arch.
I've been meaning to try this technique for ages. Unfortunately the shutter speed needs to be a bit higher, making the iphone picture look slightly blurry.

The blown out background sometimes impossible to avoid in a city grid at higher latitudes and perhaps why this shot was left in the archive so long. Enjoy.

From our hike last Saturday, windy and sunny on the hills surrounding Belstone, in the north of Dartmoor National Park. There are some signs that granite has been extracted here in the past, the split boulder in the foreground has a row of holes in it, lining the split, possibly to create this break line. A wonderful remote area, only the Dartmoor ponies were all gone....maybe too windy for them?!

I should've checked my settings before firing off this shot of tonight's sky, at F22 and ISO 6400 it's grainy, but I'm like a man possessed when I see something like this, rushing through the house to grab my camera and shooting before the scene changes!
Music recommendation from my nephew Dylan:
I continue to be amazed at how many abandoned schools there are in this area, and that most of them appear to have really new roofs
The Andrew Jackson Intermediate School ( which had several other names over t's lifetime ) was built in 1928 in Detroit and closed for good in 2012, with the damage to the building occurring primarily in the 2 years that followed the closing.

Thanks to all who take the time to view, comment on and favor my images. It is very much appreciated.
Piping Plovers are nearly invisible until they run a short distance, stop, and tilt forward to pull an insect or worm from the soft sand. They tend to forage alone or in small groups sticking to the higher parts of the shoreline relative to other shorebirds.
