This place is in german called "Meerauge" and is located in southern Austria. The pond with it's crystal clear water gets the cyan color from algas.
One more re-processed oldie. This newer version is much warmer and less HDR-ish than the original (in Comments).
It is estimated that there are more than 120,000 Black Bears in British Columbia and over 7000 Black Bears on Vancouver Island making it one of the more dense places in the world for this bear population. The Vancouver Island black bear is slightly darker in colour and larger than the mainland bear and is considered one of 6 subspecies in British Columbia.
Nada me gusta más que recorrer las antiguas carreteras de la Ribeira Sacra para seguir descubriendo lugares mágicos.
Muy cerquita del impresionante "Penedo do Garabullo" nos encontramos esta recóndita fervenza.
En la parte alta del río, escondida y despues de gatear por las rocas y abrirme camino pude disfrutar en soledad de este bello rincón.
Espero que os guste!

This is part of a large addition that I am making to my Bay View album. Bay View is a community of summer cottages near Petoskey, Michigan. Most of these additional photographs are highlighting the great number of porch styles in the community. Taken on an drizzling, overcast day.
And as Gina said under my “Seven Up” porch, the houses in this community are “all-American”, not a cookie-cutter in the place. Available at 17-robert-carter.pixels.com in the “Bay View” collection.
Johnston Canyon, Banff National Park Alberta, Canada
So I just got back a few days ago from a solo road-trip up to Canada. I had snagged a campsite at Lake O'Hara back in April and have been eagerly awaiting the trip since. I spent 4 nights between Lake O'Hara, Banff, and Jasper. I went on glorious hikes and made about a million side excursions. I'll have more details written up later in an album description when I have more patience. In a nutshell, I had a blast despite a little bad weather and experienced incredible natural grandeur.
This location is along the super popular Johnston Canyon trail (there were hordes of people on the trail, almost making it unbearable for me). I knew about this little spot and had done a little research as to what to look for but even then, when I "found" the trail it was still a surprise to me since I wasn't 100% sure where it was. I was absolutely thrilled to have found it, and basically had the whole place to myself (there was a couple there doing some shots, but they were respectful and didn't detract from the splendor in any way) for a good 30 min or so. It is probably the coolest thing ever to see. And even though that rock looks like an island, it's just a matter of perspective and is actually a jutting, curved land mass.
This is also my first true HDR photo, and I think I did an alright job; no over-the-top glow effect or details. If you think I could do better, I would appreciate any advice since I am new at this and am really just sort of winging it.
I will have a ton of photos to post, but I won't inundate you with all of them at once, and I still have hundreds to go through. Just thought this would be a good start.
Cheers!

Spotted this 'treasure' during one of my walks ;-))
Happy Friday!!
One of the attractions about Seaside is the tide pools. Once a year, in winter, we have very low tides that expose pools that are created by the tidal flux. People come from all around to see creatures stranded in pools, waiting for the tide to rise again and wash them away. So each year I add to my series "Exploring the Tide Pools" where I capture a small slice of life with people interacting with this natural wonder.
The estate of Clement Studebaker in South Bend, Indiana. Designed by Chicago architect Henry Ives Cobb, the house remained in the Studebaker family until 1933. In the following years the mansion was the home of the Anerican Red Cross and a school for handicapped children.
We have always known it as Tippecanoe Place Restaurant which opened in the late 1970's, where we still enjoy having a fabulous dinner once in a while. The neighborhood is still very intact with many beautiful mansions from the Studebaker era, unlike nearby downtown South Bend which has been largely replaced with new buildings.
What is the difference between the transparency of space and the presence of place?
Inspired by Harry Gruyaert. photo; Ouarzazate.
For months I have been studying and shooting the transparency of space like Stephen Shore. Then I was introduced to this cat Gruyaret and his compelling embracing of empty place.
This is supposed to get easier not harder !!!!
The relationship between the runner and that car are vital to the structure of the center stage. While the people and poles at the periphery are important in creating the gateway to the back of the picture.
Today I returned to the place that I spread my big boy Milo's ashes. In the week since we have experienced 14 inches of rain, a destructive east coast low we haven't since the likes of since in the 1990's and finally the huge swells from a cyclone just off our coast. Nobby's beach has changed dramatically in that time. I kind of think the Good Lord took Milo's ashes out to sea in a way I could not.
