Less than a week before the winter solstice and even though it's only just past lunchtime the shadows are already beginning to encroach on the trackside.

-Il rosso è uno dei colori dello spettro percepibile dall'occhio umano. Ha la frequenza minore e, conseguentemente, la lunghezza d'onda più lunga di tutti gli altri colori visibili (tra 630 e 760 nanometri).

 

-Frequenze ancora minori ricadono nell'infrarosso.

 

-La parola rosso deriva dal latino rŭssum corradicale di rŭbeum.

 

-Il rosso è il colore più stimolante e coinvolgente di tutto lo spettro. Esprime slancio, velocità, potere e gioia, ma anche pericolo e passione. È un colore eccitante perché stimola il sistema nervoso centrale, aumentando il battito cardiaco e la pressione.

Recently, tourist boats have been visiting less and less.

Eddie enjoys his sweater. Maxwell has never enjoyed wearing a sweater. He may change his mind once the real cold and snow arrives much less the cold winds.

Yes, I did enhance the colors on this photo in Lightroom. Maybe I did it too much, but I enjoy looking at it with vibrant colors like this. I have been thinking about it, and I feel like I’m doing art, not journalism or legal evidence, so the goal is to produce a photo that I like looking at and that hopefully other people will also enjoy looking at, even if that means playing with the color levels a bit before posting it. If I were painting, I would use bright vibrant colors.

 

Also, its hard to measure what is accurate for something like a sunset, since the camera captures the light and dark so differently than the human eye perceives it in the moment. This version is probably more vibrant than I remember seeing in person, but in the other direction, the out-of-camera raw file was much less vibrant and more flat than I remember it looking in person.

 

What are your thoughts on this?

Sorry I've been MIA...it's always hard starting a new assignment. There is so much to learn and never enough time. I haven't lifted a camera in two weeks...but I will try for a photo shoot this weekend :).

 

I'm trying some different styles of photo processing and this one is inspired by one of my favorite photogrophers, Shana. Check our her stream...it's fantastic!

I wish everyone a great week ahead.

When I got up this morning, the smoke looked like this to the east. It's not that the worst is over, far from it. The worst is not over. But the winds have died down, which kept the smoke from being pushed towards the southwest and into Glendale. For this morning, the smoke drifted to the south. Once could still smell the smoke in the air, and during most of the morning ashes would float down like snowflakes. That ended by the afternoon.

 

As long as the Troy Burger restaurant remains open I am optimistic about the fate of Glendale.

Less than two weeks after being released from rebuilding, GP28P 1594 leads a B30-7A and SD40-2 south on the Hinckley Sub with train 836 (Superior-Northtown). This unit was rebuilt from BN GP9 1747 (NP 309).

Since my previous outing in Hawrelak Park was so productive, I decided to give it rerun honors and was not disappointed because I came across two more duck species I had not encountered before. After much ado, I believe this to be a Lesser Scaup male, simply because the highest point of the head seems to be at the rear of the head (reverse true for the Greater Scaup) and because we see purple iridescence on the head which we would not (according to my sources birding.about.com/od/identifyingbirds/a/scaupidentificati...) on the Greater Scaup. Nothing in life ever is easy and one of the markings, the black nail at the front of the bill extends beyond the nail which is a sign for a Greater Scaup. However, since this was seen in a fairly small pond and not in coastal waters, that also points to the Lesser Scaup. But, really, I’ll let the experts make the final call on this and may end up revising the title and the byline. Some people find it exciting to research and find out what actually it is you got a picture of; I’d much rather take a picture and know what it is (gives you way more time for concentrated beer consumption). Regardless, I was happy to be able to run across him and he seems to have a bit of a dreamy expression, possibly caused by the female being in the area and he’s wondering perhaps perhaps perhaps.

As usually a little drizzle didn't spoil our hiking adventure. It added a bit of extra magic to the forest. The autumn leaves and the grasses were - from my point of view - even nicer than in bright sunlight. All in all we were lucky. Only when we were back home, the less than stellar hiking weather started.

I took my chrome OM2 for a roll and fresh air as in my recent uploads. I do feel that chrome body is too pretty and less romantic in some sense. The brassings at the edges of my black OM-2n has more romance in it - so are my black FE2 and F3.

 

Just my two cents :-)

The Way is like an empty vessel

that yet may be drawn from

without ever needing to be filled

it is bottomless:

the very progenitor of all things....

it is like a deep pool that never dries...

 

When you look at it you cannot see it

it is called formless

when you listen to it you can not hear it

it is called soundless

when you try to seize it you cannot hold it

it is called subtle

no one can measure these three to their ultimate ends

therefor they are fused to one.

it is up, but it is not brightened

it is down, but it is not obscured

it stretches endlessly

and no name is to be given

it returns to nothingness

it is called formless form, shapeless shape,

it is called the intangible

you face it but you cannot see its back

Holding on to the Ancient Way...

This juvenile must have gotten lost from the flock and was trying to hang out with any other ducks that would not run it off. Not a great image but I don't run across these guys very often and decided I'd post it anyway.

Listening to the songs from the Tender Love playlist, a follower, palioxis commented that he or she, I'm not sure, felt less alone... Truly healing power music provides. I hope my images provide similar effects as well... Have a delightful Wednesday, my dear friends!

Do you feel less alone after listening to the songs? ;-)

清爽些了嗎?

最近發現這個Youtube頻道,所列的歌單蠻療癒的,有網友說聽了他們所精選的歌曲,日子變得比較不孤單了,我也希望我的照片有類似的效用... 週三愉快,好友們~
