There is another beautiful landscape that lies beneath the surface. A landscape that has designs and hypnotic curves that go on for miles. The flow of these canyons is a work of mother nature’s art. With the right light, the spectrum of colors come to life. You get to see the color transitions from dark to light around each corner, revealing another formation, another chamber, another sculpted design.
Oh my love for sand dunes. A subject that I’ve been photographing for some years now. My first visit to these dunes back in 2008 was overwhelming. The mesmerizing curves, the pristine untouched sand, and the hypnotic light and shadow play was something I had never seen before. The beauty was infinite, and ever since that spring day back in 2008, I made the visit to this area, every year since. For this particular scene, it took a few visits to get the right conditions. There was endless amounts of footprints 👣. But after a few months of waiting, the wind finally wipe the dunes free of footprints. So pristine, so clean, the endless curves and sharp spines of the dunes were back....only temporarily. I was just happy to see the this landscape as it was when I first visited the area 11 years ago.
The Bloßstock is definetly one of the most famous in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. Now it is 20 years ago since I was reaching its top. What a great memory!
Thanks for coming and enjoy your evening!

I was really hoping for the sky to open up with wonderful colours during my sunrise shoots at Kiama earlier this year, however, it was not to be and I had a chance instead to play around with long exposures to catch some dramatic moods.
Shooting long exposures had another great benefit - I was able to look around during each shot and really feel the landscape and sea around me, learn the motion of the water and understand the nature of the waves and the incoming tide a little bit more.
That was a great experience in itself.

My house is built on hallowed ground and land that was reclaimed from the sea. It suits the essence of me and calms my spirit to walk in my garden knowing that it was left for many years, an abandoned place until the house was built and the stony and sandy ground where nothing much grew except ancient plants; wild flowers that blew in on the wind. Then someone planted trees from all four corners of the earth and plants that should not have survived began to flourish as if the roots of these trees breathed new life into the earth. There have been only a few guardians of this magical place and I am honoured to be the current guardian. At first I tried to plant what I liked; tried to enforce my will on this holy place, but in time I realised something … you cannot force a garden to grow; to bend to your will. A garden evolves slowly over time of it's own accord mostly and we, as guardians, should allow it to guide us. In this way I have found peace and happiness here and I embrace the changes of my ever-evolving garden. I seldom buy anything new to plant. I wait for the winds; I wait for the seasons; I witness the changes and I grow and evolve as a person in much the same way as my garden does. It is a joy to anticipate each new season; each new wind; and to see what appears. There is always something unexpected appearing. Life is full of surprises; of serendipitous moments. I wonder sometimes about these old trees. I think whoever planted them was guided and perhaps the garden welcomed the dappled shade on what once was a desert. Certainly I feel myself sometimes directed to introduce a new species. Perhaps I am guided also by a hand that I cannot fathom. We are not meant to understand everything. If we allow ourselves to just be, we may find, without effort, how our path unfolds with relative ease. I have found this to be the case. All those years of struggle and now I can just let go … it really is that easy to be content.
p.s. I was compelled reluctantly to remove a Laburnum tree that I thought might be harmful to my cats. I had always wanted such a tree with it's beautiful yellow flowers … but in it's place a Forsythia grew with a profusion of yellow flowers. I did not plant it! Magic? Yes, I believe so! : 0)

I wander in the wilderness
my garden of delights
a jungle by the turquoise sea
a land so flat; the moon at night
shines down with silvery fingers
and touches the ground with magical spells
and come the breaking dawn of morning
all ills are banished and all is well
the dark and mysterious creatures
who loiter in the dusk
emerge in brilliant sunshine
with all-seeing eyes; an elephant tusk
protrudes and scythes the longest grasses
parts the meadow like the ancient sea
leaving behind a trail of crimson
flowers of sorrel and sweet harmony
reigns here as the King of the Jungle
seeks solace in the afternoon siesta
ignores the urban sounds outside
these walls; these trees; a back-firing Fiesta
alerts the songbirds from their idle rest
they flitter and flutter from tree to tree
and as I lie within the striped hammock
I swing and sing low to the sound of the breeze
a mist arises suddenly; springs up from the sea
settles a cloak; an air of mystery
around the shoulders of myself and the limbs
of the ancient trees as I sip my Pimms
I can barely keep my eyes from closing
the warmth of the air so cloying and deep
I find myself falling gently to the humming of bees
as I lapse now into a soundless sleep
I awake to find the blue sky black
lit by a billion diamonds or more
an infinite guide is laid out before me
the wisdom of ancient celestial stars of yore
some say when we see them
they have already died
long ago before our ancestors
what does this imply
do our eyes deceive us
or are we psychic or perhaps
we are more knowledgeable than we realise
all we need falls easily into our laps
but still we often ignore
the instincts that are given
override them; divide them
dilute them; we're driven
to only see clearly to the end of our noses
we fail to stop often to smell the scent of the roses
take stock; stand still
absorb the nature of all living things
for in this garden I discovered
nature brings happiness and happiness brings
peace of mind; plentiful bounty
the sweetest fruits of the earth
the love that will bind us
circumnavigate the world's girth
here I find every day all that I need
the flora; the fauna; all that set seed
and I've no desire to be anywhere else
as much as I desire to be here
in this garden full of Heaven
there is love; there is goodness that I hold dear
from the humblest of creatures
find the beauty in a fly
sing so loud like a blackbird
view the world through a child's eyes.

Colorful facade of the optical shop in Ikebukuro, Tokyo.
Perhaps the shopkeeper likes to do something foolish seriously.
Roughly speaking, more than 3000 sunglasses are displayed for the entire facade. This strange shop has become so famous that sightseeing buses sometimes stop by.
It’s a nice question to ask why this shop has so many glasses.
Management policy of the shop is to get a large quantity of glasses from bankrupt companies, or to buy the entire inventory from other shops to sell them at a bargain price.
Now glasses are too numerous to sell, I heard that part of reading glasses are donated to the needy people around the world.

Riserva Naturale Orientata delle Casse Di Espansione Del Fiume Secchia (Modena, Italia).
Natural Reserve, Secchia river high-water bed park (Modena, Emilia Romagna, Italy).
Created to regulate river flooding, the high-water bed quickly became a nature site of great interest. It covers approximately 200 hectares and is characterized by permanent pools of water of varying sizes which are interspersed with small islands and peninsulas which are periodical submerged. Here, a rich spontaneous vegetation quickly developed. Numerous animals are present and, in particular, various species of birds stop and nest here. The Secchia river flows by this high-water bed, its banks covered with a dense vegetation. The Reserve Area was founded to protect this environment at the heart of this park, but also to upgrade and reorganize the entire surrounding territory, including agricultural areas, sand and gravel pits, water sports and recreation areas, large communications infrastructures, buildings of historic-architectural interest and the areas containing wells for drinking water.

A journey upward, where each step leads to the unknown. The stairway stretches endlessly, vanishing into the shadows, a metaphor for the paths we choose, and the ones that remain unseen. The interplay of light and dark invites reflection on the nature of progress, both seen and unseen
Lit by hand in 4 seconds, with Kim Henry. This is created on the largest mirror of our planet, the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia. I've never see the milky way so bright before. Even the Magellanic Clouds were super visible with the naked eye. Check out the behind-the-scenes video on youtube.com/ericpare
I wish you all a wonderful 2017 with many new opportunities and a wide horizon. And of course good light!
This photo was taken in 2015 in Death Valley. I am not a starskape pro, and this one was challenging for me because there was absolutely no visible feature in the landscape to focus on, it was pitch black dark! I had to focus by taking picutres of the sky and judging on the camera display where the best spot was. Nothing new to some of you, I am sure, but a novel experience for me!
