Chicago's Lake Point Tower and the harbor breaker in the distance. The water is noisy due to heavy winds.
This was taken at China Camp State Park in Marin County San Francisco Bay Area around noon on a overcast day, my initial thought for this shot was to get a Black & White shot with long exposure to still the water and have some cloud motion to make the scene dramatic but what unfolded was quite a different thing.
I was using a Singh Ray 10 stop Vari-ND filter that has a polarizer and had stacked a 3 stop hard edge + 2 stop ND soft grad + 2 stop reverse grad filters
when i looked at the shot on my LCD it was showing magenta blue color cast ...initially I though it was my WB setting but when I opened it up in lightroom for processing my WB setting was quite normal at 5800K so instead of going with my original composition plan I just worked with the color cast to create this image...let me know your thoughts

For WAH who are visiting isolation - hi guys!
Isolation In Desolation, the famous cottage near the summit of Hartside Pass on the way to Alston. I have passed this place many a time, never really working out the best way to photograph the cottage. Going through a black and white phase i realised within this landscape, a mono shot was best.
A slight re-work of 'The Frosted Tree'. Slight crop change and upped the contrast.
Taken last January. Looking forward to getting the first snow of 2014! ... hopefully we'll get some soon.
Belvedere Giacomo Puccini with view over Lago Massaciuccoli
The Villa Puccini is in our back.
Torre del Lago, Tuscany, Italy
"[...] From 1891 onwards, [Giacomo] Puccini spent most of his time, when not traveling on business, at Torre del Lago, a small community about fifteen miles from Lucca situated between the Ligurian Sea and Lake Massaciuccoli, just south of Viareggio. Torre del Lago was the primary place for Puccini to indulge his love of hunting. "I love hunting, I love cars: and for these things, in the isolation of Torre del Lago, I keep the faith." ("Amo la caccia, adoro l'automobile: e a questo e a quella nelle solitudini di Torre del Lago serbo intera la mia fede.")
By 1900, he had acquired land and built a villa on the lake, now known as the "Villa Puccini". He lived there until 1921, when pollution produced by peat works on the lake forced him to move to Viareggio, a few kilometres north. After his death, a mausoleum was created in the Villa Puccini and the composer is buried there in the chapel, along with his wife and son who died later.
The Villa Museo was owned by his granddaughter, Simonetta Puccini, until her death, and is open to the public. An annual Festival Puccini is held at Torre del Lago. [...]" (Wikipedia)
self inflicted...I couldn't help wondering where it came from, how it got there, if it was the tip of a bigger mass.

this picture was captured at Sungai Panjang, Near Sabak Bernam, on a misty morning. the sun was already high as it was almost 8am, so i took the advantage for some landscape + selfie + backlit photography. am i doing it right? u give the answer :)
I've finally gotten around to making some brand new hairs. It's so good to be back. I'm getting into the swing of things again! Anyway, I hope you enjoy them! <3
Anyway, I think we've improved the lag and Lula should be fine. Come to our little set up and try some demos and find some cute stuff!

Mrs Palmer’s home-baked fruit scones. People in the UK will recognise a scone (although there is regional disagreement as to whether it’s pronounced to rhyme with ‘stone’ or ‘gone’). I guess the nearest US equivalent is biscuits, as in biscuits and gravy, although a biscuit is not exactly the same thing. Our scones are eaten sliced across and each half spread with butter, or as part of a traditional ’Cream Tea’ when the butter is replaced with clotted cream and jam (aka jelly). Another fine argument concerns the order of application of the toppings. In Devon, the cream goes on first, in Cornwall, the jam.

The task is to explore the house, inside and out, finding new ways of looking at the familiar things that surround me every day, and literally shedding new light on them - hopefully producing a worthwhile photograph.
Might not be one every day, but we'll see.

Lighting: Daylight from window camera right.

My mother resides in an old-age home. The other day, I went to visit her. This was the extent of our contact. Single exposure. Covid-19 Series.
