A remarkable sunset accentuates the colors of the Painted Desert. Captured at the Little Painted Desert County Park, just north of Winslow AZ
A strong westerly wind was blowing over Langstone Harbour, Hampshire yesterday evening at sunset so no reflection around so decided to have a go at some long exposures over the old rotten posts which are the remains of the old Billy Line Station.
Quite like the effect in the sky from the long exposure which looks like it's been painted(badly)!
150 second exposure using a Lee "Big Stopper" 10 stop ND filter + a 0.9 ND grad over the sky.
Thanks for any comments you may wish to leave.

All one's butterfly memories are sunny ones, bright pictures in the mind which colour the dark days of winter.

An older shot I just got around to posting. This boardwalk is located in the Painted Cove Trail section of the Painted Hills Unit of John Day Fossil Beds in central Oregon. The area was formed over 35 million years ago by volcanic eruptions followed by changing climate patterns. The mineral rich volcanic ashes paint the desert dunes in the spectacular colors you see today. Once the area was a river flood plain with a warm tropical climate and lush vegetation and exotic animals. Today an abundance of fossils remain from prehistoric horses, camels, and rhinoceroses making the fossil beds of importance to paleontologists.
As aways, thanks for your comments and have a nice weekend!
I was thrilled to see that my local Painted Bunting has found a lady and she is hard at work building a nest! Hopefully she will be a mother soon if she isn’t already one.
Hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day!

Been trying my hand at some ICM (intentional camera movement).
(You could say the 'slide' was in-camera ;))
I just thought I'd upload one last picture of this fading Painted Lady to make it a hattrick to finish off this series. She's still Beautiful in my eyes and I'm pleased to have captured her...
John Day Fossil Beds National Monument,Oregon.
The black soil is lignite that was vegetative matter that grew along the floodplain. The grey coloring is mudstone, siltstone, and shale.The red coloring is laterite soil that formed by floodplain deposits when the area was warm and humid. An abundance of fossil remains of early horses, camels, and rhinoceroses in the Painted Hills unit makes the area particularly important to vertebrate paleontologists. (Wikipedia)
Scanned from an Ektachrome slide. Last in the Painted Hills series.

Thank you everyone for your kind comments and favs. All are greatly appreciated. HLCoF
I really liked this view and how it framed up with the polarizing filter bringing out the varied colors in the land under the blue sky and pretty white clouds.
I haven't seen a Painted skimmer in a few weeks. These are often our first skimmers on the wing as early as March & can fly into July.
Our rain is supposed to wrap up but we have an Evil East Wind with clouds today - and it rained again last night. Next 3 days are supposed to be sunny & nice ...
"I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colours anymore, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by, dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes..."

This little painted bunting is down low dining on last season's dry seeds. Unusual for this time of year when they dine mostly on insects.
Our beautiful world, pass it on.
You may have heard about California's "superbloom" - vast fields and bursts of wildflowers everywhere. Turns out, it's good for the Painted Lady butterfly migration as well. Hundreds, thousands, millions of them are heading from near the Mexican border to our Pacific Northwest. Finally they found my yard, which is just bursting with color. This one lighted on a bloom of sea lavender. Mostly, I see Monarchs come through here, but the Painted Ladies are only occasional and just darned special. I hung in my yard for about an hour today and watched and photographed them as they flitted silently from flower to flower. What a joy indeed.
