Since I need some winter images for a proper photo calendar i looked for something worth capturing during those days when we had at least a little bit of snow.

Actually the amount of snow we had wasn’t even enough to cover the grass on this hill, so I cloned out hundreds of grass blades, which was great fun.

Not.

If you are into counting, you are welcome to check my assertion based on the original image:

The spectacular Loup of Fintry on the River Endrick

The sunset hits the Bridge of Sighs in this way almost everyday and it stays that way for a few minutes before it spreads over the rest of the beautiful enclosure and makes it all the same color. Visiting Oxford University is like a trip through history. Some of the greatest minds in human history have studied there, going back hundreds of years, The list of Oxford alumni contains the names of some of the most historically significant world leaders, writers, inventors and scientists. Even Albert Einstein attended Oxford for a time, but it soon became obvious that there wasn’t much they could teach him. The Bridge of Sighs Is just one of its many famous and beautiful iconic landmarks. The Bridge of Sighs – is called that, because of its apparent resemblance to the structure of the same name in Venice It links Hertford's old and new quadrangles across New College Lane. It was officially opened in January 1914 and has since gained worldwide renown as an Oxford icon.

 

This young capricorn in the Julian alp mountains of Slovenia is obviously surprised looking into the lens of a bridge camera, but it's not scared.

With one coming into land on some poor Puffins head by the look of it.

Iceland is a place of rich folklore and abounds in many ancients myths and Viking tales. Most of the Viking mythology was written down in Old Norse language in Iceland to be preserved and passed onto future generations. It is hard not to feel the power of these myths when one is confronted with rugged and surreal Icelandic landscape. Stokksnes is one place that made me feel the awe of this land. I could lose myself completely in the rugged and dark beauty of Vestrahorn mountain surrounded by the black sand dunes and listening to the sound of the ocean.

A sunny afternoon with the typical Dutch white clouds against a blue sky on the dike of the island Marken. The group houses with their red roofs and green painted wooden walls, is called the Rozewerf. Marken, 2018.

 

Again, I would like to thank everyone for your support, views, faves and comments!

 

Rozewerf is een buurtschap in de gemeente Waterland, in de Nederlandse provincie Noord-Holland.Het is één van de buurtschappen die het leef- en- woongemeenschap van het voormalig eiland Marken vormen. Rozewerf is gelegen net ten zuiden van Grotewerf. Andere spelling voor de buurtschap is Roze Werf en oudere spellingen zijn Rozenwerf en Rozen Werf.

 

Rozewerf is van oorsprong een terp, dat een werf wordt genoemd. Deze terp is niet vernoemd naar de kleur maar meer dan waarschijnlijk naar de persoon of familie Roos of Rozen, die de eigenaar of aanlegger is geweest van de werf. Net als de andere ten noorden van Rozewerf gelegen werven stammen de meeste huizen uit de 18e en 19e eeuw. In de loop van de tijd zijn deze wel flink verbouwd. Rozewerf kent net als Grotewerf nog het meest oorspronkelijke uiterlijk van deze oude bewoning waardoor het nog de karakteristieke en monumentale panden heeft. Rozewerf is een kleine buurtschap en de huizen staat ook erg dicht op elkaar, er is smalle doorgang door de buurtschap. Rozewerf ligt echt maar net aan de dijk die het beschermt van het water, ooit de Zuiderzee thans het Markermeer. Rozewerf lag van oorsprong niet aan het water maar in de loop der tijd is een deel van het eiland verzwolgen door de zee.

The leopard (Panthera padrus pardus) is a solitary animal of the bush and forest and is mainly nocturnal in habit, although it sometimes basks in the sun. It is an agile climber and frequently stores the remains of its kills in the branches of a tree. It feeds upon any animals it can overpower, from small rodents to waterbuck, but generally preys on the smaller and medium-sized antelopes and deers. Leopards are very stealthy and like to stalk close and run a relatively short distance after their prey. They kill through suffocation by grabbing their prey by the throat and biting down with their powerful jaws.

 

The beautiful Luluka, female Leopard, gave birth to a cub 2-3 months ago. They normally move their dens so as to keep other predators away from the cub. Luluka was seen holding her cub in her jaws and moving dens nearly 3 kms away. Photographed during a photography safari on an early morning game drive in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, Kenya.

Probably the most famous view on all of Lofoten islands, and with good reason. The incredibly picturesque setting of Reine on Moskenesøya, the outermost island accessible by road. It has been photographed a million times. Here you see my interpretation: A cold and quiet winter afternoon when it was just late enough for the village lights to turn on but still quite some time before blue hour... what I started to call the 'pink hour' because of the sometimes almost eerie arctic winter light.

Continuing this brief series of cool sights I saw on a single morning outing to Grasslands, the park at my doorstep. These two Moose with their calves were a surprise; I tend to see moose more often in fall and winter. And last year there was considerable noise and commotion as contractors built a new bridge across the Frenchman River - resulting in many wildlife species, including moose, steering clear of the area until things settled down.

 

But.. they're ba-ack!

 

I'm so happy. They add an extra touch of wildness to the prairie landscape. Twenty-four years ago, when I first spent some extended time hanging out in this place, moose were a rare sighting. In the interim, they have arrived to occupy the valley, and other prairie locations, too; biologists are not sure why.

 

My theory? They find ample food and shelter here, where there are no natural predators, no hunting, and an abundance of peace and quiet. Essentially these are the same reasons I moved here full time in 2011. I'd like to think I'm smarter than the average moose. But maybe I'm not.

 

More to come...

"Get Down on It" Week Continues! A 7-day celebration of looking down our noses at our subjects, much like King Henry VIII did.

 

Painting: Chicago was thunderstorming all day yesterday, so I spent the morning in the corner of my studio where I go to paint, but mostly I watched the rain pelt the windows. Ahhhhhhh. Well, you know what happened next: a click of the shutter...then a nap. :)

 

My talented friend Kim also shot paint brushes yesterday, because great creative minds think alike. :)

This year marks the 200th birthday of this great Austrian composer. Here you can see the Bruckner bust in Vienna's Stadtpark, which was unveiled three years after Bruckner's death.

 

Bruckner ‘was an Austrian composer of the Romantic period as well as an organist and university teacher. Only recognised by his contemporaries late in life, he was nevertheless one of the most important and innovative composers of his time and his works had a great influence on music history well into the 20th century.

His most important and probably best-known compositions are his large-scale eleven symphonies.’

The Alcázar of Segovia (literally, "Segovia Fortress") is a medieval alcázar located in the city of Segovia (Castile and León, Spain), a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Rising out on a rocky crag above the confluence of two rivers near the Guadarrama mountains, it is one of the most distinctive castle-palaces in Spain by virtue of its shape – like the bow of a ship. The Alcázar was originally built as a fortress but has served as a royal palace, a state prison, a Royal Artillery College and a military academy since then. It is currently used as a museum and a military archives building. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alc%C3%A1zar_of_Segovia

This image is another from my Puyallup Fair captures and it features a moderate moving Ferris Wheel captured at about a 30 second exposure. I was interested in this image to not only capture the motion and vivid colors, but also, a lot of the black detail in between. The crazy thing about this fair (referencing my earlier write-ups) is the fact that by the time you have entered the gate, ate some food, rode a couple of the rides, you will have no doubt spent about as much as you would at Disneyland, if not, a little more. And this is definitely not a Disneyland experience. But for capturing these images it is definitely worth it. This image was captured in September 2009 with my Nikon D90. Enjoy!

Iceland was fantastic! With practically no visible signs of the recent volcano eruption, the country is as beautiful as ever. We (Michel Geven and I) had the best of times. I think he must be getting on a bit because this time, he didn't even knock my room door down at 4AM èvery night! :-)

 

The 9 day trip led us from Reykjavik, via Vik, to the Jokulsarlon Glaciers; back North to Borgarnes; with the ferry to the West Fjords, with an unforeseen but very welcome night at the wonderful island of Flatey, due to missing the last ferry - I was súre I read somewhere that it would go at 8PM! :-) - west to Latrabjarg to the Puffin cliffs, and back again to Reykjavik.

 

Gained 2 kilos from the countless bags of M&M's, winegums and kokosböller :-) and nòt because of the regular evening dinners, which Michel manages to make us miss every time because of òne more shot of some Skua or another. Only on the Ferry I could corner him into eating something that had at least more than one vitamin in it :-)

 

But Michel, you're the best travel companion one could wish for on a photo-trip!! Already looking forward to next year!! :-)

 

Thanks to the valuable directions we got from one of Iceland's most skilled bird photographers, Sigurjón Einarsson we found this lupin field where two pairs of Short-Eared Owls had their hunting grounds. An incredibly beautiful sight! Unfortunately, in the limited time we had, they didn't come really close to our cameras, so this is quite a heavy crop, but seeing those magnificent hunters with their piercing eyes, flying completely silent over that vast sea of blue, was a sight I won't easily forget. Thanks so much, Sigurjón!

 

I promise to update the diary on my website with the Iceland trip asap!

This was taken at the Valley of Fire in Overton, Nevada. I used the Sigma Fisheye lens. Haven't time to be on Flickr and photograph for some time due to working a lot of my days off.

This is how the slopes of trek to Khaliya top looked, snowy and grassy near the top and perfect 45° inclination.

The Guard of the 4.00pm to Sikar Junction looks thoughtful as the train negotiates the pointwork going out of Jaipur. The couple of European snappers active around the metre gauge lines possibly serve as a reminder that the route will be closing in a matter of months for gauge conversion work, and the quaint MG rolling stock, which makes an easy step down to the ground, will soon be gone.
