RUST NEVER SLEEPS

It's always important to check if it is christmas or not. Time can fly when you're not paying attention.

This is an image taken during the night of opposition (9th May 2018) at 01:40am using a 8" SCT telescope.

 

The atmosphere was very steady, even the view through the eyepiece was mesmerizing...

 

The moons are Io on the right and Europa on the left.

Yes indeed, Autumn is a feast of color, shapes and beauty. So much to do as a photographer in this season, it truly is an inspiration. I keep remember what my photographer teacher tells me once in a while, "don't let color fool you, you need light too to have a good photograph". Of course it has to be the appropriate light, no too much, not too little...

 

I've been absent of Flickr for a while taking care house renovations, trips and more. I missed you all, and hope that all of you are doing well.

 

Have a fantastic season, and for the ones that celebrate Halloween, have a great time, and be safe, most of all...

 

Somehow Fall brings peace and serenity, take a look at this, and enjoy this awesome song...

I enjoy nature photography the most, since I love the outdoors and long hiking trips. Macro photography is a true passion for me, since I get to watch a miniature world that opens without limits, before the camera makes the funny sound.

 

Graphic design is another way to express myself. I love reinventing a photo that I have seen in different ways. Sometimes, I use my own textures to do so.

Chloé is a badass. This shoot was rainy, cold, dirty and pretty physically intense. She was totally down with it all. Champ.

Thank you for letting me take your picture lady, you were wonderful. Think up some way to equally torture me and I'll do it no questions asked.

The Jackdaw is Britain’s smallest black crow ( a family of birds collectively known as corvids), which also includes ravens, crows, rooks, jays and magpies. With a distinctive silvery sheen to the back of its head. The pale eyes are also noticeable. The jackdaw call is a familiar hard ‘tchack’ from which it gets its name. It will commonly nest in chimneys, buildings, rock crevices and tree holes. Jackdaws can be found in fields, woods, parks and gardens. They’re social birds and roost communally in woodlands. They’re widespread and common across the UK, except the Scottish Highlands. British birds are mostly resident, though upland breeding birds migrate south and west to lowland regions and Ireland for the winter. Meanwhile, the wintering population is increased by immigrants from northern Europe, which arrive along the east coast in the autumn.

Very random pic. I think Mai is so hard to photograph :(

A cockatoo is any of the 21 parrot species belonging to the family Cacatuidae, the only family in the superfamily Cacatuoidea. Along with the Psittacoidea (true parrots) and the Strigopoidea (large New Zealand parrots), they make up the order Psittaciformes. The family has a mainly Australasian distribution, ranging from the Philippines and the eastern Indonesian islands of Wallacea to New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and Australia. Cockatoos are recognisable by the prominent crests and curved bills. Their plumage is generally less colourful than that of other parrots, being mainly white, grey or black and often with coloured features in the crest, cheeks or tail. On average they are larger than other parrots; however, the cockatiel, the smallest cockatoo species, is a small bird. Cockatoos prefer to eat seeds, tubers, corms, fruit, flowers and insects. They often feed in large flocks, particularly when ground-feeding. Cockatoos are monogamous and nest in tree hollows. Some cockatoo species have been adversely affected by habitat loss, particularly from a shortage of suitable nesting hollows after large mature trees are cleared; conversely, some species have adapted well to human changes and are considered agricultural pests. 9128

This is a shell that I brought back from Baja California, Mexico at least seven years ago. I couldn't always catch big fish, but I could always find shell to light and photograph.

 

Lighting is from a Yongnuo manual strobes in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box positioned on the right side of the shell. Fill light is from a hand held mirror at camera left. The strobe and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Objects album. For each image in the set, and there are over 2000 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/

 

Other picture of shells that I've posted on Flick can be seen in my Shells album: www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/albums/72157626043932290

This is one stretch of the bamboo forest, part of the Pipiwai Trail to Waimoku Falls near Hana, Maui.

When the wind picks up, the bamboo sways and makes a fascinating sound.

Thank you, your views, favs and comments are greatly appreciated!

 

I got Lego Dimensions and the portal pack and it is an amazing game! Batman in Springfield, Chel in the old west, Awesome!

 

After I played that for a while I got back into portal, and passed the first one in a few hours, so decided to make this little guy because the one that comes with the Portal pack is way too big.

 

Please comment if you favorite, and let me know what you think of Dimensions!

This is my favorite pine tree (or at least what's left of a pine tree). And it's got a pretty decent view of the landscape as well.

Passu is a small village on the Karakoram Highway, beside the Hunza River, some 15 kilometers from Gulmit, the Tehsil headquarters of Gojal in the Gilgit-Baltistan region of Pakistan, and about 150 km upriver from Gilgit. It lies very near the tongue of the Passu Glacier, and just south of the tongue of the Batura Glacier. The latter is the fifth longest non-polar glacier in the world at 56 km and reaches very near to the highway. The people are Wakhi and speak the Wakhi Language. Religiously they are Ismaili, a sect of Shia Islam.

  

Tupopdan, 6,106 metres (20,033 ft), also known as "Passu Cones" or "Passu Cathedral", lies to the north of the village; it is the most photographed peak of the region.Also nearby are the high peaks of Pasu Sar, Shispare Sar, and Batura.

Istanbul , historically also known as Byzantium and Constantinople , is the largest city in Turkey and fifth largest city proper in the world with a population of 12.8 million. Istanbul is also a megacity, as well as the cultural, economic, and financial centre of Turkey. The city covers 39 districts of the Istanbul province. It is located on the Bosphorus Strait and encompasses the natural harbour known as the Golden Horn, in the northwest of the country. It extends both on the European and on the Asian sides of the Bosphorus, and is thereby the only metropolis in the world that is situated on two continents.

In its long history, Istanbul has served as the capital city of the Roman Empire (330–395), the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire (395–1204 and 1261–1453), the Latin Empire (1204–1261), and the Ottoman Empire (1453–1922). The city was chosen as joint European Capital of Culture for 2010. The historic areas of Istanbul were added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1985.

''Mi mundo es tuyo porque nadie lo quería.

Aún sigo buscando convertir mi ruina en gloria.

Mi objetivo es marcharme con un legado,

pero me han quitado de en medio sin dejar ni una historia.''

Fort Lauderdale station is an inter-city rail station located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It is served by Brightline, which connects Miami, West Palm Beach, and Orlando International Airport. The station is located in downtown Fort Lauderdale, on NW 2nd Avenue between Broward Boulevard and NW 4th Street, adjacent to the Broward County Transit's Central Terminal.

 

Construction for the station began in October 2014 with the demolition of existing structures on the site. The complex consists of an elevated concourse above an 800-foot-long (240 m), 35-foot-wide (11 m) island platform for the trains. The station is a modern-style structure with illuminated V-shaped columns supporting the upper concourse, echoing the designs of the Miami and West Palm Beach stations on the line. It was planned and designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in association with Zyscovich Architects, and was completed in January 2018.

A shot from last Sunday`s frost, a spider web in a bus shelter, it`s amazing the images you can find , because we are in lockdown don`t put that camera away take it on your exercise walk and shoot different subjects you never know what you may find. Shelob is a giant spider in Lord of the Rings living in a cave in Cirith Ungol leading to Mordor who attacked Frodo Baggins. Yes i`m a LoR fan.

this is the beginning of the second series of bodyscapes. again Anna was the model.

This is a repost of a sunflower macro (from last Thanksgiving) to honor the passing of the Philippines' first female president, Corazon Aquino.

 

I was aware of but a little clueless about the Revolution during my last visit to the Philippines in 1986. Reading President Aquino's biography made me appreciate how much she meant to Filipinos all over the world.

 

How wonderful--this photo won 2nd place in the KARMA group's photo contest the week of 08/01/09! Thanks for all the votes, everyone. =)

This is one of the images I captured during the trip to my hometown recently. And it is one of the images that I love too.

 

I used the bright morning light coming from the right-hand side of her face and capitalizing on the poorly-lit living room for the dark background as she sat in the front porch of her house. It turns out to be nice with my choice for Aperture Priority of f/5.6 and the camera chosed to click at 1/30 sec for the shutter speed. No Photoshop was used, only a slight touch-up in Nikon PictureProject software.

 

Talking about her…. She’s my relative that her life has been reduced to taking care of her hemiplegic husband for the past 6 years. Both of them are staying in a small house at the corner of the village next to the rice field. I could see how well she appreciated my visit to her house. It perhaps alleviates some pain since it’s been many months already their grown-up children who are staying in Kuala Lumpur didn’t pay them visit.

 

This is another shot from my weekend trip to the hills. It was a very warm day, and late in the afternoon there was a bush fire. There was this beautiful orange hazy light, and the ground still green from winter. What I love are the little patches of orange light on the green plants in the foreground. But, you have to look closely.

 

I would like to ask a favour - please leave a comment, even just one word. What do you think? Be honest. When it comes to landscape I can rarely translate what I see to a photo. Whilst I appreciate your faves I want to know what works and what doesn't. My husband thinks I have whackadoo taste in photos, well I think his words were 'not mainstream'!

Is there something in my hair?

 

I ended up tinting the grout on her face so it was a more peachy colour.

No ? So why are you wasting my time and asking me to go out ? I know that the sun is shining but it's cold. More than cold, it's icy. And we have snow and snow is wet. I don't need to go in the garden to find out about something I already know. And don't tell me again that fresh air is healthy. It's NOT healthy, it's only FRESH !

 

That was yesterday and today I tend to agree with Cleo: it's really only fresh !!!

Heron that's not impressed with the weather

Art is not something i particularly approve of meself. Much like terrorism, it's defined not by the thing itself but by who did it and why. This though, this is definitely Art, or at least a picture of some in its natural habitat, the Royal Academy of Arts.
