My second attempt at a Monitor Pano, using 2 pano-sabotaged shots I took of my PC monitor - one of Westminster Cathedral that I took in London some years ago and another - more recent one - of a mannequin, recoloured and overlaid.
Questo lavoro è stato eseguito su carta Favini 24 x 33 liscio ad alta grammatura. Le linee del disegno sono state disegnate con una matita HB Koo I Noor Hardtmuth, i colori applicati prima con matite colorate a base di olio della Caste Art e poi sovrapposti con matite colorate acquarellabili della Caran D'Asche serie Prismalo date a secco. Grazie per gli eventuali gradimenti.
This work was carried out on smooth 24 x 33 Favini paper with high weight. The lines of the drawing were drawn with an HB Koo I Noor Hardtmuth pencil, the colors applied first with oil-based colored pencils from Caste Art and then overlaid with dry-dried colored pencils from the Caran D'Asche Prismalo series. Thanks for any compliments.

A row of trees mirrored in still water.
Captured using in-camera double exposure with the ICM technique (Intentional Camera Movement). Two photos were taken and merged directly in-camera. During the second exposure, a preview of the first image was overlaid to guide the composition. The final result is a single JPEG combining both shots.
Still refining the process...

Today we walked along the coast from Reculver Towers towards Herne Bay. as the tide was going out we returned along the beach.
Infrared with the X-E3, again, this time processed in Capture One. Two white balance layers, one on the cloud, the other on the weeds. A third 'deep sky' preset layer, then overlaid using a Kodak UltraMax 400 preset.
There are 85 known species of Adelpha, all but two of which are confined to Central and South America. The butterflies are characterised by having a distinctive blackish marbled pattern overlaid on a brown ground colour; and by the presence of a broad orange or white band on the forewings. The hindwings of most species have a white median band.
Adelpha alala is confined to the Andes mountains, and occurs in Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and north-west Argentina. This is a pre-montane and lower cloudforest species, occurring at altitudes between about 400-2600m on the eastern slopes of the Andes.

Probably a day or so too late to get the sun in the ideal spot for sunrise, so that it crests the horizon centred between the tower, but still a very pleasant morning.
Since I was last here there have been some additional repairs undertaken to the wooden decking of the bridge, but these haven’t been done sympathetically. Large wooden planks have just been overlaid over the existing planks. It looks awful, and I can only hope a more worthwhile restoration will be undertaken on this historically important bridge in the future.
For this shoot I decided to break out my old 24mm tilt shift lens, which I haven’t used for a while. Two shots taken, using the shift mechanism, and stitched together in Lightroom to get the square shot.

Michael Orton invented this technique in the mid-1980's, where he achieved the effect by superimposing two slides (analog), which is why this type of photography is also known as the sandwich - technique.
Once upon a time (LoL) I read about the Orton effect and loved it.
To create an Orton Effect image, first create a sharp, correctly exposed photo, and then a blurred image that is 2-3 f-stops overexposed. The effect varies depending on the amount of blurring. A tripod must be used because the images must be absolutely congruent, the image must be in RAW and in manual mode. Then both photographs have to be overlaid with an image processing program (Photoshop) and then multiplied.
Open the photos in a RAW software of your choice. Make basic adjustments - contrast - white balance ect.
Open the photos in PS. With the move - tool you drag the blurred photo onto the sharp photo. You can then use the blending mode to create the characteristic effect. The best:> Lighten -> Multiply negative and> Soft light. Then go to> Layer / New Adjustment Layer / Gradiation Curves and adjust the photo until you like it. Depending on how picturesque you want it to be. I haven't done much of anything because it's a beautiful tree anyway. I was absolutely amazed how the colors changed. The originals are really different to the end result. My advice is to choose a motif that doesn't have as much empty space as mine here. I will definitely test it more often.
I smiled all over my face, as I went through the variuos steps.
Have fun testing dear HSS people ;-)
Another day when the time ran away from me (compiling a Macro Mondays Blurb photobook).
I had a look at the FCB's 52 week challenge, and Smoke Art was top of the list.

Looking at the south celestial pole.
About 65 minutes worth of shots each with 20 second long exposure and about a 5 second interval in between each shot.
I loaded all the photos into Photoshop as layers and set the blend mode to 'Llghten'. That caues all the layers to form into the star trail.
I also took one light-painted photo of the stone work so I overlaid the light-painted stone work part into the final image.
I didn't bother with gaps or aircraft lights..
Honeymoon Cove
Palos Verdes Estates, CA
01-22-25
One of two "hidden coves" on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, I've shot from this vantage point in the past, but even using my older 10mm lens, I never got the vista you see here. I haven't "lens corrected" much in Photoshop either. Except for the slight warping of the tree trunk on the right, you might not even think "extreme wide angle" when first seeing this picture. (And I could have nudged the right side a bit with the distort tool to "correct" the warping, but I like this just as it is.
There is one tree on the south side of Honeymoon Cove, and it's a bit dicey getting down in the exposed roots so that one can get a shot like this. One slip, and, well, it's a pretty steep fall to the water. The sunrays shining through the palm fronds are "real" (as real as you've going to see in a 3 exposure HDR image.) I haven't added any "sunray" effects in any of my programs to make it appear brighter or have more individual rays. In fact, the opposite is true. I overlaid a "non HDR" image of the sunrays on top of the HDR image, to get a more natural look.

It's a single photograph of what I think are Cotinus leaves in their autumn colours, layered, overlaid in different positions, and blended with different textures.
All images and textures used are my own.
Hazy Days.
Beautiful early morning walk today but nothing I shot really did it for me.
Sony double expo app opened this evening and overlaid various areas of bokeh from my back garden on top of a shot of Lauren walking down a lane from this morning.
A Neotropical Fruit Bat (Artibeus jamaicensis) captured in the lush La Primavera forest, near Guadalajara, Mexico. While the originally photographed moon was indistinct, the more detailed lunar image is a composite from the same night, precisely overlaid to reflect its actual position in the scene. This individual was temporarily part of a research study before being safely released back into its natural habitat.

Three black and white frames shot with different filtration overlaid and coloured in PhotoShop in an attempt to mimic the look of the discontinued Kodak Aerochrome infrared film. I didn't have a proper set of filters for this at hand, though, so the colours are a bit off.
Black and white image of bare trees among winter tumult. Photograph overlaid with ink printed textures.

Original photograph made today using a Zorki 4 with a Chroma Double Glass lens and a roll of Ilford HP5+. Film developed in Microphen, digitised with a Fuji X-H1 and post-processed in Snapseed on a tablet. Textures overlaid in the Distressed FX app also on a tablet.
I am in such a position myself at present. Being still unwell I have cut down on those I follow but it’s not a reflection on their prowess as a photographer. Just who I engage with the most on Flickr.. I cant always find the words to comment so I have turned comments off on my photography for now. I can sometimes find words to write and sometimes not. I am printing more too and that is also time consuming. I took this photo on my desk in my PC room but have no memory of how it got a reflection. The scene overlaid is the gateway to someone's private property in Lincolnshire a short drive from our caravan. It looks a beautiful place and now Devon and Cornwall are getting overloaded by those rich enough to buy real estate in the beautiful Lincolnshire Wolds is getting bought out by people with the money to do so. The 'green belt' is disappearing at an alarming rate but not for those without a very healthy bank balance....
I turned comments back on as I am in the slow process of catching up :)
Lindos is an archaeological site, a fishing village and a former municipality on the island of Rhodes, in the Dodecanese, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Rhodes, of which it is a municipal unit. The municipal unit has an area of 178.9 km2. It lies on the east coast of the island. It is about 40 km south of the city of Rhodes and its fine beaches make it a popular tourist and holiday destination. Lindos is situated in a large bay and faces the fishing village and small resort of Charaki.
According to myth, Lindos was founded by the Dorians led by the king Tlepolemus of Rhodes, who arrived in about the 10th century BC. It was one of six Dorian cities in the area known as the Dorian Hexapolis. The eastern location of Rhodes made it a natural meeting place between the Greeks and the Phoenicians, and by the 8th century Lindos was a major trading centre. In the 6th century it was ruled by Cleobulus, one of the Seven Sages of Greece. The importance of Lindos declined after the foundation of the city of Rhodes in the late 5th century BC.
In classical times the acropolis of Lindos was dominated by the massive temple of Athena Lindia, which attained its final form in around 300 BC. In Hellenistic and Roman times the temple precinct grew as more buildings were added. In early medieval times these buildings fell into disuse, and in the 14th century they were partly overlaid by a large fortress built on the acropolis by the Knights of St John to defend the island against the Ottomans.

Blanca sleeps in bed right next to me. In the morning when she feels it's time to get me up, she will just stare at me like this. It is silent but surprisingly effective. I actually took this picture right after waking up. Then I pet her and she licks my hand tenderly. It is a wonderful way to wake up! And then we get ready for our morning beach walk. The overlaid sunbeams are from our visit to China Beach last week.
Art - Double image on pencil sketch
1. I took an image of the wolf saved a copy
2. then I applied pencil sketch to it from Photoshop
3. I copied the wolf from the original image and pasted it into the pencil sketch image and overlaid his face (only over the sketch image at 50% to soften and that image).
4. then I pasted the whole wolf image next to the other wolf and adjusted the size and placement.

Glass - designed by Freia Schulze
Glass artist: Freia Schulze
1950 Born in Lübeck, Germany
1967–1971 Schwäbisch Gmünd State School of
Applied Arts (artistic glass grinder)
1971–1975 University of Applied Arts, Vienna, and
Stourbridge College of Art, England
1977 Freelance artist for the Hergiswil
glass manufactory, Switzerland
Since 1988 Studio in Lübeck
The designs of the vases, glasses and flacons created by Freia Schulze are refreshingly modern and elegant. Their abstract or floral ornamentation, engraved in the ground glass in lively yet regular patterns, makes for a relief-like surface. When we look through them, the ornamentation multiplies like the patterns in a kaleidoscope. In addition, thanks to their ground and engraved surface, the vessels take in and reflect the light with a soft colored shimmer. Freia Schulze first hand-blows her creations according to her designs and then subtly and imaginatively works on their decoration.
Since the Studio Glass movement started presenting free-blown objects in the 1970s, there are only few artists who also use Schulze’s technique of manually grinding glass. After the elaborate grinding process she engraves and sometimes also enamels the glass. Her clearly structured, yet at the same time markedly feminine glass work, has been honored with several prizes – for example the Justus Brinckmann Prize in 2007 – and by being exhibited in several public collections.

As winter begins to fade, I'm finding image potential once more in the roadside puddles and ditches. The melting snow produces standing water which then freezes overnight. Get out early with a tripod and macro lens, and a whole new world of possibilities unfolds.
Here, last year's fallen weeds lie suspended in and under thin ice, overlaid by a million frozen bubbles. An abstract tangle of shapes and textures; a transient moment in an ancient process of death, decay, and rebirth. A minor miracle. A wild moment of imaginative connection that, for me, transformed the ordinary into the extraordinary.
The pano crop was an afterthought. Last spring I started shooting "macro panoramas" - consciously - applying a format usually reserved for landscapes to other subjects. Why not? The standard 2:3 ratio is just fine as a default, but there's no reason we can't push the boundaries of conventionality when other options arise. A panorama seemed just right for this shot.
I added a 1.7x teleconverter to the 105mm macro lens for this, allowing me a little more working distance from my subject. It also meant I didn't have to lean over as far to frame the shot - my back isn't what it used to be, and the less strain I put on it, the better. These roadside ditches are less fascinating if you fall face first into one.

One of the few free-standing structures in Petra, Qasr Al Bint was built in around 30 BCE by the Nabataeans. It was later adapted to the cult of Roman emperors and destroyed around the 3rd century CE. Despite the name given to it by the local Bedouin – Castle of the Pharaoh’s Daughter – the temple was originally built as a dedication to Nabataean gods and was one of the most important temples in Petra.
The temple once stood 23m high and its features included marble staircases, imposing columns, a raised platform for worship, and ornate plaster and stone reliefs – examples of which are housed in the display at the Petra Visitor Centre. The central ‘holy of holies’, known as an adyton, would have housed an image of the deities. The sacrificial altar in front, once overlaid with marble, indicates that it was probably the main place of worship in the Nabataean city and its location at street level suggests that the whole precinct (and not just the temple interior) was considered sacred.
Farbige Entwicklung mit verstecktem Lith.
Mit der Kombination von Lith- und „Normalentwicklern“ habe ich mich längere Zeit nicht mehr beschäftigt. Hierbei haben wir die Optionen, die Farbigkeit der Lithentwicklung zu reduzieren, oder sie zu steigern.
Zum Verständnis der Wirkungen zunächst eine grundsätzliche Überlegung. Extrem stark verdünnte Entwickler arbeiten weicher und farbiger als bei normaler Verdünnung. Wenn stark verdünnt wird, ist eine erheblich längere Belichtungszeit erforderlich und diese erhöhte Lichtmenge verursacht eine Zunahme der Farbigkeit ohne allerdings ein tiefes Schwarz erzeugen zu können. Also holt man sich die tiefen Schatten mit einem „schnellen“ Lithentwickler und die dann noch fehlenden Mittel- und Lichtertöne mit einem Normalentwickler.
Hier vorgestellt mit Meritol (weich arbeitender Warmtonentwickler) in der Verdünnung 1+200.
Papier Select Shedlight (Fortezo)Belichtungszeit 30 Sekunden
Erster Entwickler SE5 Lith (A+B+D+Wasser) 30+30+20+1000 ml fünfeinhalb Minuten.
Linkes Bild
Zweiter Entwickler Meritol 1+200 zwei Minuten.
Ergebnis: Warmer Braunton mit tiefem Schwarz und Zeichnung bis in die Lichter. Der Litheffekt wird überlagert durch den relativ gradlinigen Tonwertverlauf.
Rechtes Bild
Ganz anders sieht das Ergebnis aus, wenn dem Meritolentwickler noch etwas mehr Wasser (200 ml) und Ammoniumchlorid (20% 4 ml auf 1,2 Liter) zugestzt wird. Entwicklungszeit 3:45 Minuten.
Colour development with hidden lith.
I haven't worked with the combination of lith and ‘normal developers’ for quite some time. Here, we have the option of reducing or increasing the colourfulness of the lith development.
To understand the effects, let's first consider a basic principle. Extremely highly diluted developers work more softly and colourfully than those with normal dilution. When heavily diluted, a considerably longer exposure time is required, and this increased amount of light causes an increase in colour without, however, being able to produce a deep black. So you get the deep shadows with a ‘fast’ lith developer and then the missing midtones and highlights with a normal developer.
Shown here with Meritol (soft-working warm tone developer) diluted 1+200.
Paper: Select Shedlight (Fortezo) Exposure time: 30 seconds
First developer: SE5 Lith (A+B+D+water) 30+30+20+1000 ml for five and a half minutes.
Left image
Second developer Meritol 1+200 two minutes.
Result: Warm brown tone with deep black and detail in the highlights. The lith effect is overlaid by the relatively straight tonal curve.
Right image
The result looks completely different when a little more water (200 ml) and ammonium chloride (20% 4 ml to 1.2 litres) are added to the Meritol developer. Development time 3:45 minutes.

Providence & Worcester train WONR heads southbound through Thompson, Connecticut along the French River. The train, which operates between Worcester, Mass. and Plainfield, Conn., has just finished up pulling empties from a customer, and is beginning their trek south.
This was the start of a very productive nighttime chase with Sean Hoyden of Night Stalker Photo Works, who was up here on business, and had a free evening. So naturally we teamed up, and hit the P&W. It wasn't exactly our plan, but things fell into place and we caught this job at a few spots over the course of the evening.
Two separate photos were used to create this - one longer exposure for the sky, and a shorter flash-lit for the moving train. There were no material edits done to either photograph, and they were simply merged together.
Strobist Info: Three flashes. One Alien Bee B800 with an 11" long throw reflector off the frame to the right, one Lumedyne 400 w/s off the frame to the left, on the near side of the tracks and a Westcott Strobelite off the frame to the left on the far side of the tracks. All triggered with Paul C. Buff CyberSync triggers. Flash layout overlaid on Google maps:
The Trevor Carpenter Photo Challenge
Another interesting challenge! I photographed my "Flowers in Vase" in our living room in the early afternoon with very diffused sunlight through a south window. Camera settings: f/4.5, 1/40, exposure -1, ISO 200. First I used a smudge tool to soften all the hard edges and pull out the rectangular side table to extend it to the lower borders. Then I overlaid a number of artistic filters from the PS filter gallery, lots of brush work doing lightening, darkening, erasing, etc. I have a lot of variations of this image, but this is the one I think I like best.
