Pilot Knob State Park - Iowa
Out hiking in the park on a beautiful sunny spring day. The air was quite cool, some breeze out of the north, but still great weather to be "Out & About!"
In winter's past this pond was plowed and manicured for ice skating after school and on weekends. It was a busy place, with a warming house and a fire. But now days, there may be some kids sledding on the hill, but no ice skaters.

Pilot Knob State Park - Iowa
This was taken almost a week ago, and the colors are all but gone! The last shot i posted of this very area had our first light snow on 10.14.18.
It's where I go to pause, listen to nature, breath fresh air and hike. It's my "Big Time Out!" :)

On March 2nd, 2028, The North Atlantic Treaty Organization [NATO] established a special operations faction known as the, “Greater Reconnaissance and Negotiation Division,” or more commonly known as “Grand” Faction. This team of operatives had been subjects in an advanced military training program the U.S. created for the purpose of becoming an advanced counter-terrorism division first established in 2022. In the next few years, their main purpose was to respond to the conflict created by Middle-Eastern countries until the introduction of the third world war. Since then, a select group of these specially-trained operatives [Grand Faction] have been reassigned to perform a variety of executive tasks in America, Europe, and Africa.

R.I.B. pilot launch for the Port of Hobart.
The town is having its annual art and culture "DARK MOFO" event at the moment. All the businesses and shops have a red and black theme - lots of red lighting on and around the waterfront. For this reason the Pilot boat has its two red masthead lights lit whilst moored at its pontoon.
Beautiful calm night with full moon overhead, Elizabeth St Pier and the Derwent River in the background. Jupiter in the upper sky.
Playing around with the Z6 at night with the fastest 50mm I have atm, a Nikkor 50/1.4 G
Also playing around in LR, PS and Nik Collection seeking new ways to manage noise in the Nikon RAW files.

In the end I'm not happy that the image looks like an HDR processed imaged as it simply isn't one. Just the way it turned out with the lighting the way it was.

Pilot Island lighthouse sits, as you might expect, on Pilot Island in Ports de Mort or Death's Door, the passage between Washington Island and the tip of Wisconsin's Door Peninsula. Since the lighthouse was decommissioned, it has been taken over by the cormorants who have, quite literally, crapped the island into oblivion, the acidity of their guano killing nearly all of the vegetation on the island. The Friends of Plum and Pilot Island arranged to get a new roof on the lighthouse a few years ago and are hoping to be able to preserve the lighthouse. The island is presently a nature preserve under the control of the US Fish and Wildlife Service.
Only recently, I'd had a discussion with friends about how nuns tend to not wear habits anymore... that years ago, they were given the green light to wear street clothes. I also just recalled being told in grade school that nuns were allowed only to travel in pairs.
So, when I saw this nun in the airport the other day, I was thrilled to see that she was on my flight, that I might get a chance to photograph her. I nearly lept out of my pants (sorry for that visual) when I saw this scene immediately across from where I was sitting. I was very lucky to get this, however, as I shot it just as people were lining up for our flight. Someone had just walked by (to the left) for me to grab this. It's not as sharp as it could be, I suppose, because I wanted so desperately to record it that there's a touch of camera shake.
Cream of the Crop: This is my most viewed, most commented on, most fav'd and most "interesting"!
EDIT (14 December 2005): I'm very excited to have had this photo selected for issue #4 of JPG magazine! It even made the cover montage!!
Selected for publication at the now-defunct FILE on-line magazine.
This photograph is now available for sale at my ImageKind site.
There were lots of comings and goings towards our ship during the afternoon including an early visit from the pilot. He obviously came over for an early meeting for he left shortly afterwards and returned later in the evening to assist us out of the port
The wall work and canvases commissioned by Climb4Freedom in support of A21, an anti-human trafficking campaign. The art, altogether with DanK's section, depicts the journey from despair to hope, from entrapment to freedom of women in bondage. All canvases were auctioned on the night.
Check the time lapse video to see the whole.
