This is a similar idea to the previous photo (although in colour) with one exception: It is 8 separate versions of the one shot. Yes, I was so determined to get the right exposure I actually took 8 handheld shots in relatively quick succession (but not using continuous mode).
So here the shot had been determined, but I was simply mapping it in my mind. It looks a lot like ICM, but I assure you it isn't. So I put this forward, like the previous shot, merely as an experiment in where my camera moved in time and space around the shot.
Vidéo-mapping sur le Stengel
Aux confins du quartier Saint-Roch/Saint-Jacques et du centre ville, la résidence de standing le Stengel était autrefois une importante caserne de cavalerie, dont elle n’a gardé que la magnifique façade du XVIIIe siècle.

Video-mapping on the Stengel
On the borders of the Saint-Roch/Saint-Jacques district and the city center, the luxury residence Stengel was once an important cavalry barracks, of which only the magnificent 18th century facade has been preserved.

Cool ice formations in front of the dock. We should have total ice out in a day or two. Most of the river is free in the center of the channel, but the sides are still icy.

I got up early yesterday to try and get a sunrise series of images around the theme of fruit tree blossoms here in the Niagara Peninsula. Such was the plan. But, as it generally the case, things did not go exactly to plan. So after a period of getting what I could before blossom season ends, I headed home and, more out of frustration than anything else, headed over to the mouth of the Forty Mile Creek in Grimsby, Ontario to try an capture some sunrise-over-Lake Ontario images. Luckily the light was a bit odd and very harsh. But that meant I could get a shot of the point of land, with its marker light, at the entrance to the local harbour. Hence a silhouette opportunity, admittedly assisted by a bit of under-exposure. The yellow hue was there and I took advantage of it in PP to bring it out a bit more and this is the result. - JW

The memory of what has been real, it’s already a proof of the absence, the
landscapes where the other one is missing... it has been for real? Only the
lines, strokes, stains, the gesture, the partial, the oblivion… The memory
beyond the landscape, recreated inside the interior arquitecture, broken,
incomplete, as the geography of the contemporary identity.

Nous avons survolé la zone démilitarisée et lourdement gardée qui chevauche la frontière entre la République populaire démocratique de Corée et la République de Corée. Le contraste est très visible de jour mais il est encore plus marquant de nuit : les lumières du sud et de Seoul se transforment en obscurité totale dès la frontière passée, à la rare exception de Pyongyang, seule tache de lumière dans un pays obscur. Peu de gens ont l’opportunité de zoomer sur Pyongyang, ce qui fait de ce photocollage une bonne occasion de l’explorer : vous ou moi n’approcherons sans doute jamais la ville de plus près.
We flew over the de-militarised zone, the heavily guarded border between the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and Republic of Korea. You see the contrast by day, but it’s even more striking at night: the brightly lit area on the left is Seoul and the south of the Korean peninsula, and it turns into almost complete darkness right after the border... the only small spot of lights is Pyongyang. I could zoom up on the capital city of DPRK, not many people are in a position to do so… explore the city in the Big Picture mapping, that’s probably as close to it as you’ll ever get to the city, and me too: www.esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2021/09/Pyongyang_photo...

Well, another Monochrome Monday has rolled around. To celebrate, here is an image of Terrace Creek Falls located in the Short Hills Provincial Park just West of St Catharines, Ontario. I have photographed this waterfall several times but in each case the flow has been no more than a trickle. Rain over the preceding several days had increased water flow in other streams nearer home (in Grimsby, Ontario) so I assumed it might be worth a hike into Terrace Creek to see if it too had benefited from the rains. And it had. First time in five years of trying to get a decent water flow shot. That said, the sun was harsh in the time slot I had available, so I took the image with the intention of a B&W end result. Colour is bland for this image. A nice Spring day on the Niagara Escarpment. - JW

Tech Details:
Taken using a tripod-mounted Nikon D7100 fitted with a Nikkor 12-24mm lense with a 10-stop Neutral Density/GND filter, ISO100, Auto WB, Manual mode, f/8.0, 25 sec. PP in free Open Source RAWTherapee from Nikon RAW/NEF source file: scale image to 9000x6000, enable Graduated Neutral Density tool and then rotate and shift it to darken the bright sunlit area in the diagonal lower right part of the frame, enable the Tone Mapping tool and use it to get a better balance between the dark wall of the rock wall forming the falls area and the rest of the image, boost contrast and Chromaticity in L-A-B mode, boost vibrance, sharpen, save. Note: result is a bit flat in colour but good for B&W conversion in the next stage. PP in free Open Source GIMP: convert image to B&W using the film simulation tool with the Ilford Delta 100 model, duplicate to create three layers each with black/transparent layer mask and, using a large, soft-edged brush, paint white on each one so you wind up with one layer masked for the sky area, one for the rock wall that forms the falls and one for the brightly lit foreground area, adjust each layer using the tone curve tool to get a good looking representation for each of the three areas, create new working layer from visible result, sharpen, save, scale image to 6000x4000, sharpen slightly, add fine black-and-white frame, add bar and text on left, save, scale image to 1800 wide for posting, sharpen slightly, save.

Mapping à 360°, projeté sur les 1500 m² de murs et de coupole du Grand Salon, proposé au visiteur, afin de rendre hommage à l’amitié entre La Fontaine et Fouquet au travers de la fable Le Renard et l’Écureuil.
Contée par Laurent Stocker, sociétaire de la Comédie Française, cette fable, qui circulait sous le manteau à l’époque de La Fontaine, et n’a été publiée qu’un siècle plus tard, plaide en faveur d’un dénouement heureux du procès de Fouquet.
(source site officiel du château de Vaux-le-Vicomte)
Le château de Vaux-le-Vicomte, situé sur le territoire de la commune française de Maincy (Seine-et-Marne), à 50 km au sud-est de Paris, près de Melun est un château du XVIIe siècle (1658-1661), construit pour le surintendant des finances de Louis XIV, Nicolas Fouquet. Il appartient désormais à une branche cadette des marquis de Vogüé.
Fouquet fit appel aux meilleurs artistes de l'époque pour bâtir ce château : l'architecte Louis Le Vau, premier architecte du roi (1656), le peintre Charles Le Brun, fondateur de l'Académie de peinture (1648), le paysagiste André Le Nôtre, contrôleur général des bâtiments du roi (1657) et le maître-maçon Michel Villedo. Leurs talents avaient déjà été réunis par le jeune Louis XIV pour construire des ailes au château de Vincennes en 1651-1653. Le roi refera appel à eux pour construire le château de Versailles, celui de Vaux-le-Vicomte servant alors de modèle.

The Sun's axis of rotation varies in relation to the solar North pole over the course of a year. Interesting article in Sky at Night magazine about using freeware programs "Helio" and "Tilting Sun" to measure the tilt and overlay a grid for any solar image taken at a particular time. 0-180 line is true North-South and on the 30th September 2017, the axial tilt (P0) was 25,93 degrees.
There is also variation on the forward tilt of the Sun over the year. You can see more grid lines at the North Pole than the South in this instance. The angle of tilt is given as B0 and varies between plus and minus 7 degrees over the year.
The article also quoted the Mount Wilson Solar Seeing Scale - there was good seeing on the day this image was taken - probably a 4:
4: Sun is sharp for more time than it is fuzzy. Solar granulations visible for most of the time. Limb motion and resolution are in the 1-2 arcsecond range.
