You take the breath right out of me.
You left a hole where my heart should be.
You got to fight just to
make it through,
cause I will be the death of you.
Vento di maestrale incredibile su Rena Majori, una zona costiera molto suggestiva della Sardegna. Il vento, le nuvole, la luce e i colori hanno fatto il resto.
Una lunga spiaggia....lo sguardo spazia lontano.
Con un sole che accarezza, in questo eccezionale inizio d'ottobre, e l'acqua trasparente, non sembra neppure di essere ancora in città.
Si entra in un'altra dimensione, nell'azzurro del mare, nella brezza dell'aria, lontano da problemi e preoccupazioni, per un attimo. E ci si sente felici.
Laggiù un po' di gente, i cantieri navali, l'aeroporto.... Ma non importa

Sea!

"It´s not what you look at that matters, it´s what you see." Henry David Thoreau.
There is in the heart of Dublin a park not as well known as others, but where we can find one of the most unexpected places in the Irish capital. A few minutes walking from the popular St. Stephen's Green, we have the Iveagh Gardens, a green lung much quieter than its neighbor, and where we can travel with our imagination to more tropical latitudes thanks to the impressive artificial waterfall built it here. We just need to get close enough and focus on the torrent of water that falls incessantly, ignoring the cold and some tree whose leaves are changing color by the arrival of autumn, to after a few minutes believe that we are in some jungle thousands of kilometres far from there.
After two failed attempts in which I found the waterfall turned off for no apparent reason, on the third occasion I was again disappointed to see it turned off. However, this time I decided to look for someone that worked there, luckily, a very kind security guard turned on the waterfall for us and finally I could photograph it from different perspectives. Between the different compositions, this ultra-wide angle image was my favorite. To prevent the movement of the leaves by the wind, the base photograph was taken at a faster speed at which I subsequently added the waterfall captured with a long exposure. Of course the use of the tripod for the long exposure is indispensable, in addition to the focus stacking technique to achieve a foreground on focus. I don't know when I will be able to return to tropical countries, but in the meantime I will settle for my Dubliner jungle.

"No es lo que miras lo que importa, es lo que ves". Henry David Thoreau.
Hay en el corazón de Dublín un parque no tan conocido como otros, pero que cuenta con una de los lugares más insospechados de la capital irlandesa. A pocos minutos caminando del popular St. Stephen´s Green, se encuentran los Iveagh Gardens, un pulmón verde mucho más tranquilo que su vecino, y en los que podemos viajar con la imaginación a latitudes más tropicales gracias a la impresionante cascada artificial que en ellos se encuentra. Basta con acercarse lo suficiente y concentrar la mirada sobre el torrente de agua que cae sin cesar, ignorando el frío y algún árbol cuyas hojas están cambiando de color por la llegada del otoño, para tras pocos minutos creer que estamos en alguna jungla a miles de kilómetros de allí.
Tras dos intentos fallidos en los que me encontré la cascada apagada sin motivo aparente, a la tercera ocasión volví a llevarme la desilusión de verla apagada. Sin embargo, esta vez decidí buscar a alguien que trabajara allí, por suerte, un guardia de seguridad muy amable encendió la cascada para nosotros y finalmente pude fotografiarla desde diferentes perspectivas. De las diferentes composiciones, esta imagen con el ultra gran angular fue mi preferida. Para evitar el movimiento de las hojas por el viento, la fotografía base está tomada a una velocidad más rápida a la que posteriormente añadí el agua de la cascada capturada con una larga exposición. Por supuesto el uso del trípode para la larga exposición es indispensable, además de la técnica del focus stacking para conseguir un primer plano enfocado. No sé cuando podré volver a países tropicales, pero mientras tanto me conformaré con mi jungla dublinesa.

A popular spot with Instagrammers, this building is unlike anything else in Sham Shui Po. It’s home to Lung Hing Tong, an institution established in 1931 that offers a range of services from the medical to the spiritual and religious. Its colourful green tiling is in stark contrast to the neutral blocks sitting on either side, and its eye-catching design is topped by a 3D dragon, cranes and deer emerging out of the frescos on the roof.

L'automotrice, partita da Szentgotthárd, al confine con la rete ungherese, percorre il lungo rettilineo fra Fehring e Feldbach, diretta a Graz ed è appena transitata sotto ad un portale per il controllo della sagoma dei treni merci.

The railcar, which started from Szentgotthárd, on the border with the Hungarian network, runs along the long straight between Fehring and Feldbach, bound for Graz and has just passed under a portal for checking the gabarit of freight trains.
Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ying_Lung_Wai:
Ying Lung Wai (Chinese: 英龍圍) is a walled village in the Yuen Long Kau Hui area of Yuen Long District, Hong Kong.
Ying Lung Wai is a recognized village under the New Territories Small House Policy.
Ying Lung Wai was established by a branch of the Tang Clan of Kam Tin, who had set up the nearby villages of Sai Pin Wai and Nam Pin Wai, but later moved to the area to establish the village due to feng shui reasons.
At the time of the 1911 census, the population of Ying Lung Wai was 94. The number of males was 38.
Ying Lung Wai is part of the Tung Tau alliance (東頭約) or "Joint Meeting Group of Seven Villages", together with Nam Pin Wai, Tung Tau Tsuen, Choi Uk Tsuen, Shan Pui Tsuen, Wong Uk Tsuen and Tai Wai Tsuen. The Yi Shing Temple in Wong Uk Tsuen is an alliance temple of the Tung Tau Alliance.
