A long exposure amde at Peveril Point (minutes after smashing a second Lee BIg Stopper - many thanks to the wife for letting me borrow hers!!). Very stormy so the tripod was as low as it could go and bungeed to my rucksack for ballast. Wonderful light though.
After the success of our workshops in Cornwall and Dorset recently, Antony Spencer and I are running a one day workshop in that will take a small group to two of the finest bluebell woods in the UK on Monday 2nd May 2011.
Just one place remains due to a cancellation. If you would like to join us please see the workshops page of my website which is linked from my profile page below.

Found it hard to find compositions in these tank traps ....
Pentax K1 w DFA15-30/2.8 ISO100 f/9 @15mm
Single frame raw developed in DxO PhotoLab 5, colour graded in Color Efex Pro 5 finished off back in PhotoLab.
Captured in Sept. 2012 in Blaubeuren Germany with a Panasonic DMC-ZS20.
It was edited in Alien Skin Exposure 5, with two variations of Old Kodachrome faded options and the layers blended with a blend mode.
This mill wheel used the water power to drive a hammer that forged iron.
This pond was really green in color, yet very clear.
There is a very busy hiking path that goes up the hill behind the wheel.
There is also very deep blue pond here. Its gets its color from its depth. At one point they thought it was bottomless. But divers finally reached the bottom and discovered the its greatest depth 20.6 m, volume approx 5,500 m³. with a constant temp in the depths of 9.4 °C.
I seem to remember that there were also some prehistoric settlements and artifacts associated with that hill.
Blaubeuren is located west of Ulm. There is an Abbey and some castle ruins nearby. It is considered a Town District, and I was told that they keep the area its serves historic records there. I am guessing it is kind of like the Market town in the UK.
It has some really nice old architecture with great details.
I missed a few more while moving around so it was 12 minutes before shooting train number 29, out of 54 trains I ultimately photographed in the span of 4 hr 45 min here at Dobbs Ferry.
Metro North train 853 a 5:30 PM out of Grand Central Terminal is on its 1 hr 34 minute express trip to Poughkeepsie. The train consists of seven cars (various models of Bombardier 'Shoreliner' coaches of which MN operates 133 in east of Hudson service) led by GE P32AC-DM 212 (blt. Mar. 1998 and one of 31 on the roster including four owned by CDOT and dressed in New Haven McGinnis style colors).
This is MP 20.5 as measured from Grand Central Terminal on modern day Metro North's Hudson Line, the four track former New York Central water level route which traces its history here back to 1849. In 1913 the NYC installed third rail electrification through here as far as Harmon, 33 miles north, a system that remains to this day.
Today this route is astonishingly busy with over 150 MNCW trains passing this point on weekdays with electric MUs operating as far as Croton-Harmon and diesel powered trains to Poughkeepsie, 73 miles north. In addition another 22 Amtrak trains pass to and from points as far flung as Burlington, VT, Montreal and Toronto in Canada, and Chicago. Lastly rounding out the parade is a nightly CSXT road freight between Selkirk Yard near Albany and Oak Point Yard in the Bronx.
In the background can be seen the silhouette of the city with the 604 ft east tower of the 4760 ft long George Washington Bridge eleven miles distant. The ever changing skyline of Manhattan stretches out behind it with 18 buildings over 1000 ft in height. Sharp eyes will recognize the iconic profile of the 1250 ft Empire State building 19 miles distant and now the 8th tallest in NYC. If you find vertical construction almost as fascinating as horizontal transportation check out these links I found interesting:

The thing about this view at Point Lobos was the tree on the right, what an amazing sight. And one pick of it wouldn't be complete unless in a pan grabbing the small bay as well.

Candid street portrait taken in Glasgow, Scotland. Not sure if she is just gesticulating to him or if he has some food stuck around his mouth somewhere. Either way I love the many stories that this image can conjure up.
Mulholland Point Light, 1B4, Narrows Road, Welshpool, New Brunswick, Canada
Captured from the other side of Union Cove with the International Bridge in the background.
I wasn't sure how much lens I would need to make this capture, so I brought the 150 - 600 mm zoom on my little hike along the north shore of Union Cove to make this capture. Luckily 150 mm was short enough to include a good part of the bridge, since I feel it adds an interesting element to the image. And made even a bit more interesting in that there are quite a few lighthouses in Maine that have bridges from the mainland (or larger island) to lighthouses on smaller islands just off the shoreline. The International Bridge, of course, doesn't go to the lighthouse, but I liked the way the short tele stacked them up and made it look like it did.
Regarding distances:
The lighthouse was about a quarter mile from the camera, and the bridge was about another quarter mile from the lighthouse, so distance and perspective play a big role in how things line up in this image.
One of the coolest places I have been. Lighting was all wrong for pictures, but the area was incredible. After a very remote drive on the Navajo Indian Reservation, we had this point to ourselves and did not see a person for almost five hours. Beautiful Views, wild horses, California condors and crazy roads!
Souter piont. After a really wet day yesterday the next morning looked quite promising for a sunrise photo. I decided to go to Souter Point, south end of Jackies beach, Whitburn, to see what I could conjure up. I'm lacking inspiration at the moment, so I struggled with a composition. Using the beach peebles as a lead in I've focus stacked to get the cliff in the background sharper.

Coal Chute Point. Point Lobos, California. March 15, 2015. © Copyright 2015 G Dan Mitchell - all rights reserved.
A bench on the bluff at Coal Chute Point, with inlet and peninsulas leading toward green hills, Point Lobos
A few days ago I needed to go make photographs, following a period during which that has not been possible, so I headed off towards the Monterey Peninsula with a vague plan that might have ended up here at Point Lobos or could have taken me further down the coast highway. It was overcast further north and inland, so I figured that by going south a bit I could find better light. In fact, I did, though it was not without its challenges — though the challenges of thin clouds (with their softened light) and haze usually appeal to me.
Without thinking about it a lot I ended up at Point Lobos, a place I have visited regularly since my family first came to California when I was four years old. Needless to say, this is familiar territory for me! I arrived shortly after the park opened and I headed straight to Whalers Cove and soon saw the peninsulas across this bay fading into atmospheric haze and finally to the "impossibly green" hills of the coastal range — and I knew that this would be my first subject for the day.

Kodak 100VS, LOMO LC-A + @ Milsons Point, Sydney, Australia
This is such a small amusement park !
But, it is still ok to walk around and see kids playing.
In my case, I jog around here at night and I see a whole bunch of small lights, so I get some kinds of amusement feelings everyday.
夜にジョギングするようになって、海に向かって走るんだけど、
ミルソンズポイントの遊園地は夜はいつもきれいなんだよね。
小さいけど10時まで開いてるから少し気分を味わえる。
