...and here are the muted colours of a rainy day in January.
Colours are brighter when the mind is open. (Adriana Alarcon)
A quiet reflective time spent wandering around the mountains. Spending time just looking. It often turns out that the simple streams and heather capture the moment rather than the epic landscape that we chase.
Taken this morning on the small island of Pulau Ubin with my buddy Rajesh. Sadly my last photo shooting in Singapore with him, as I will be relocating in Dubai in two weeks. And Rajesh is traveling to the US tomorrow.
Well bud, this shot is dedicated to you and thanks again for all the great early morning photo shootings we spent in Singapore, and also for your passion and enthusiasm!
But anyway, on the bright side we have already setup our next photo shooting which should happen in Iceland in May 2009!
I won't be posting much for the next 3 weeks, unless I can find some decent shots in my archives. But I'll still be visiting your streams regularly.

This week's theme for Mosaic Montage Monday was Muted Tones. Muted Tones, but an unmuted Stretch Eldorado! It's even a Biarritz! HMMM!
A cloudy sunset leads to more subdued, though still rich colors in the rock layers of Canyonlands. The storm that has covered the La Sal Mountains for most of the day is clearing off, revealing fresh snow on the slopes and peaks.
I toned down the color because the original was just toooooo bright (the flower I mean) that it was just too distracting if you know what I mean! Some things are just Too Colorful sometimes!

Muted colours on this cold frosty morning. The sun beginning to rise behind me adds a hint of colour to the high level mist.
A ceiling display in a music room of the V&A museum in London. I don't know the story behind why some instrunents appear to be damaged. Just liked the display in the dome.
The Mute Swan is not silent because it has nothing to say. It is in silence because the winter still has the last word.
September wildfires created a lot of smoke, which clung to the sides of Mount Shasta on the last day of our trip home from Canada. I desaturated the color a bit to emphasize the mystical and mythical sense of this gigantic volcanic mountain.
Hope everyone has a great weekend. Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.
