EL HOTEL.
- ¿Hotel ROYALE AMBREE.COM?
-Sí dígame, en que podemos ayudarle.
-Quería una habitación para la semana del 7 al 15 de Agosto.
-¡Un segundo¡
.................
-Sin ningún problema, pero le tengo que informar que después del cambio de dirección y una completa remodelación de nuestras instalaciones, ahora nos llamamos, apunte si es tan amable:
RUBENS AT THE PALACE SUITS ROYALE AMBREE BOUTIQUE, SPA.COM.
-Un nombre bien bonito que seguro hará honor a su exclusividad.
-No lo tome a broma caballero, todas nuestras suits son lo último en tecnología NFC inalámbrico que permite el intercambio de datos entre dispositivos Smartphone, inteligencia SHAR ROOM KEY, un sistema que no solo permite abrir su habitación, adecuar la iluminación a su gusto sino preseleccionar la comida y peticiones de servicio de habitaciones.
Nuestras suits cuentan con cuarto de baño con flora autóctona donde un toque primaveral convertirán ese instante intimo en una exótica experiencia.
Y por no hablar de nuestra gastronomía. Contamos con un restaurante donde este verano reinterpretaremos recetas tradicionales de la cocina Andina a cargo de nuestro joven chef Louar BROUCHER, seis estrellas Michelin que sin caer en tópicos, le demostrará que la exquisitez puede ir de la mano de la sencillez, todo un universo estético, caprichoso y
subversivo. ¡Caerá rendido amigo mío, se lo digo yo ¡
-Impresionante, se me está haciendo la boca agua.
-Pues aún no hemos terminado y agárrese, este verano contamos con noches mágicas a cargo de los mejores djs del mundo bajo la batuta y dirección creativa de RIHANNA.
-¡ No me lo puedo creer, RIHANNA ¡
-Tal cual, “ Fashion and Music “ se llamarán estas jornadas musicales.
Y también contamos en nuestro hotel con una galería de arte exclusiva donde acogeremos esta temporada obras de Manuel Sierra, Barceló y Edgar Plans.
Invertir en obras de arte se puede convertir no solo en una forma de rentabilizar sus ahorros sino en una forma de vida diferente.
Y para terminar, decirle que todas nuestras habitaciones cuentan con mayordomo personal las veinticuatro horas del día a su plena disposición.
-¿Y no podríamos quitar lo del mayordomo?
Se lo digo porque soy más de pueblo que las amapolas y si se enteran por aquí que voy a hoteles con mayordomo se están “ descojonando “ un año entero y no podré salir de casa en una buena temporada.
-Creo señor que no estamos hablando el mismo idioma, nosotros lo que vendemos son sueños, instantes únicos, irrepetibles y singulares.
-Vale, vale, era una broma, me deja usted anonadado, ya veo que sabe vender bien el producto. Y llegados a este punto creo que ya solo nos queda hablar del precio final de esos sueños tan singulares.
Y me dijo la cantidad……y me quedé sin palabras.
-¿Sigue usted ahí? dijo una voz desde el otro lado del teléfono.
-Si, sí, sigo aquí. El caso es que tengo que consultarlo con mi suegra que en definitiva es la que paga las vacaciones ¡ le hace tanta ilusión¡
A ver cómo le cuento lo de los djs. Es que a mi suegra le sacas de dos gardenias para ti y clavelitos, clavelitos de mi corazón y a la pobre se le alborotan las neuronas.
Lo consulto y le llamo lo antes posible, se lo prometo.
-Pero dese prisa porque ya tenemos casi todas las fechas cerradas.
-Lo tendré muy en cuenta. Ha sido un placer hablar con usted.
-Lo mismo digo caballero.
-Adiós.
-Adiós.
Autumn was in the air, finally. The clouds were gathering, rain was on the way, and I was keeping close to my truck, just in case. At least, if the storm came up quickly, I was always safe underneath the old covered bridge. And since there is a separate 'driveway' and sidewalk through the bridge, no problems if cars came through.
A great storm hideout!
The colors were beginning to show, how ever so slightly. Another couple weeks and they will be in their glory.
No question about it, the Fall is my favorite time of year........

Here is the view I went to capture in Iceland. It is a truly beautiful spot, but it was ruined for me by photographers being I suppose people. I hiked out before dawn the weather report was for sun the weather report in Iceland was never right but then the weather seam so local changeable by that I mean local to around 100 meters or so! Anyways I hiked out to this amazing spot I’d read about seen so many pictures of, I was the first one there I set up started taking a few shots .Just as the light was about to get interesting from nowhere carloads of photographers ruck up at surround me hedged in far enough I’ve got my spot. It’s fair game anyone can come and do this no problem then some start setting up in front of me and probably all the other ones as well! Now call me old fashioned but that’s just rude! We are all there with the same cause. So here is the image with the rude people photoshopped out lol. And please forgive my giving off about photographers! It’s a bit like complaining about traffic we are traffic… One thing it forced me off road which was a good thing to start finding spots that people didn't go to and thats when I realy started to enjoy Iceland!
Walking Harvey long before the dawn avoids the problem of pheasant shooting (and his fear of gunfire)... but there's no light for my photography addiction. Except moonlight!
Shot taken beside the River Rother at Woolbeding.
I write this with a heavy heart. The last couple of years have found me with a progressively debilitating spinal column and joint problems. If it were just me, I would never ask, but I have 2 young daughters that look to me for support, so I have to swallow my pride...
If you are in a position to help, I have setup an account to accept donations, even as little as the price of a coffee. Anything would be greatly appreciated. See my "About" page on Flickr for the link. Thank you.

New Arrivals - August 6 2020 - TS2 LR
I’m so fucking happy all time
Also, I’m really good at telling lies
My friends they always call me for advice
But they don’t know
I’ve been crying
For the past seven nights
This happens every single time I’m drinking
Like I can finally hear the thoughts I’m thinking
Fake bitch, fake bitch
Running from her problems
But she makes it look so good when she ignores them
And she puts them on a shelf
And she whispers to herself
It’s okay, bitch
Don’t ever change, bitch
Sorry that I didn’t say goodbye
Life’s a bitch, but so am I

This is the north end of main street on a very foggy early Saturday morning. This is quite unusual for it to be this vacant and lonely looking!
It was during our warmer and foggy weather after Christmas. Climate change . . . always a great debate!

I had problems getting the color balance to be consistent. Perhaps I shouldn't use Auto White Balance.
When you can see something like this, -15ºC isn't a problem.
The first time, you can't close your mouth, it's hypnotic and absolutely incredible.
Sure? Is it real?. Yes, it's real and an unforgettable experience.

Up Helly Aa procession, Lerwick, Shetland. A French uniform theme, I think, and maybe a problem with sparks from the torches.
Hasselblad, PXP @400 in eco film developer.
Foma Retrobrom
Überbelichtung ca. 2 Blenden, ermittelt mit Heiland Splitgrade Controller (Papierspeicher Festgradationspapier).
SE5 Lith (A+B+D+water) 50+50+10+1000ml 7:30 minutes.
Hinweise für die Verarbeitung.
Bei Entwicklungszeiten über 10 Minuten können sich Snowballs bilden. Versucht man durch längere Belichtungszeit auf eine kürzere Entwicklungszeit zu kommen, verstärkt sich das Problem, falls die Überbelichtung dann schon über 2,5 bis 3,5 Blenden liegt. In solchen Fällen ist es erfolgversprechender, den Entwickler etwas fetter einzustellen, oder den Gehalt an Lith D zu reduzieren.
Hinweis zur Trocknung auf Sieben.
Dieses Papier ist relativ schwach gehärtet. Bei der Trocknung auf Sieben mit der Schichtseite nach unten kann es zu Schichtverletzungen mit punktuellen Siebmustern kommen.
Processing instructions.
Snowballs may form during development times exceeding 10 minutes. Attempting to achieve a shorter development time by increasing the exposure time will exacerbate the problem if the overexposure already exceeds 2.5 to 3.5 f-stops. In such cases, it is more promising to adjust the developer to be slightly richer or to reduce the Lith D content.
Note on drying on screens.
This paper is relatively weakly hardened. When drying on screens with the coated side facing down, the coating may be damaged, resulting in selective screen patterns.
All your problems will be caught and understood by me, because you are the only encounter that touches me from within and gives outward appearances only a beautiful supporting role

Thanks for looking...
Alle bisherigen Versuche, das Snowball-Problem chemisch in den Griff zu bekommen, brachten nicht den erhofften Erfolg. Der Spezialentwickler für Fomatone hatte mit einigen früheren Chargen funktioniert, mit den letzten Chargen kam die Frustration zurück.
Versuche der letzten Tage deuten darauf hin, dass die aktuellen Chargen eine starke Überbelichtung nicht mehr verkraften. Um den Grad der Überbelichtung zu bestimmen, ist der erste Schritt ein konventionell entwickelter Print (normalerweise schätze ich die Belichtungszeit für Lithprints).
Von links nach rechts.
Nr. 1 Fomatone 132 (Charge 080348-01) in Meritol.
Nr. 2 eine mindestens 25 Jahre alte Charge Fomatone (014326/1 exp. X.2002) Überbelichtung für Lith 3,5 Blenden, (15+15+5+700 ml) Entwicklungszeit 8 Minuten.
Nr. 3 Fomatone 132 (Charge 080348-01) Überbelichtung +1,5 Blenden (30+30+10+600 ml) Entwicklungszeit 6,5 Minuten – Ergebnis: etwas farbiger als Meritol, aber kein wirklicher Litheffekt. Ein stärker verdünnter Entwickler (wie bei Nr. 2) würde zu einer längeren Entwicklungszeit mit erwartbarer Snowball Bildung führen.
Für eine höhere Farbigkeit wird eine längere Belichtungszeit benötig, was dann aber eine höhere Entwicklerverdünnung erfordert oder mehr bremsendes D.
NR. 4 Überbelichtung +2 Blenden (30+30+10+800 ml ) Entwicklungszeit 7 Minuten – Ergebnis: heftige Snowballs.
Fazit: Fomatone-Lithprints mit hoher Farbigkeit, wie früher selbstverständlich, sind zur Zeit nicht möglich.
Aus aktueller Fertigung bleibt also nur noch Foma Retrobrom für farbige Lithprints.
Nr. 5 Retrobrom 152 Überbelichtung 3 bis 3,5 Blenden (30+30+10+800 ml) Entwicklungszeit 10 Minuten – auch bei diesem Papier können sich Snowballs zeigen, allerdings erst bei längeren Entwicklungszeiten, oder stärkerer Überbelichtung.
All previous attempts to chemically solve the snowball problem have not been as successful as hoped. The special developer for Fomatone worked with some earlier batches, but with the latest batches, frustration returned.
Tests conducted over the last few days indicate that the current batches can no longer cope with severe overexposure. To determine the degree of overexposure, the first step is to produce a conventionally developed print.
From left to right.
No. 1 Fomatone 132 (batch 080348-01) in Meritol.
No. 2 A batch of Fomatone at least 25 years old (014326/1 exp. X.2002) Overexposure for lith 3.5 f-stops, (15+15+5+700 ml) Development time 8 minutes.
No. 3 Fomatone 132 (batch 080348-01) overexposure +1.5 f-stops (30+30+10+600 ml) development time 6.5 minutes – result: slightly more colourful than Meritol, but no real lith effect. A more diluted developer (as in No. 2) would result in a longer development time with expected snowball formation.
A longer exposure time is required for higher colour saturation, but this then requires a higher developer dilution or more slowing Lith D.
No. 4 Overexposure +2 f-stops (30+30+10+800 ml) development time 7 minutes – Result: severe snowballs.
Conclusion: Fomatone lith prints with high colour saturation, as was once commonplace, are currently not possible.
This leaves only Foma Retrobrom for colour lith prints from current production.
No. 5 Retrobrom 152 Overexposure 3 to 3.5 f-stops (30+30+10+800 ml) development time 10 minutes – snowballs can also appear with this paper, but only with longer development times or stronger overexposure.
All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.

Gargoyle Cat - TS2 . LR PS-3
Old infrastructure problem at Albani Falls Dam in Oldtown, Idaho. The gate is just about rusted through, and the others are not far behind, apparently. I has been intentionally left open to prevent further damage or catastrophic failure. There is about a 15' difference in water level between the 2 sides, creating quite the rush of water! This is the Pend Oreille River, which carries much of the rain and snowmelt water from the NW Rocky Mountains to the Columbia River, and then to the Pacific Ocean.
Years ago, I always find it is easier for me to make vertical (portrait) compositions.
Recently I tried to make more horizontal compositions than vertical ones.
This is one of the archive pictures taken in my Banff vacation which is in portrait format.
Have a great Wednesday!
I showed my Canadian Rockies trip pictures to my friend.
And he quickly noticed my problem here. I had too many portrait (vertical) compositions,
I can easily see vertical scene but not horizontal ones. He advised me that landscape (horizontal) composition is naturally more suitable for scenic and landscape as the name suggested.
How I can practice more on landscape composition? Do you have any ideas and suggestions for me dear friends?
Again another portrait composition in Emerald Lake!
This is part of my Canadian Rockies series. Please also check on the other ones and gives me some comments.
Happy weekend!

Sunset from Many Glacier, Glacier National Park.
We went to the many glacier hotel to have dinner and watch this sunset. I probably burned as many calories as I ate with all the times I went back outside to the lake to take more photos! After a 10 mile hike that day you would think food would come first in priorities, but you're all photographers so I'm sure you understand my choices. :)
ONR train 207 rerailed after hitting a rural road crossing thick with packed down snow and ice jumping a unit off the rails.
The other night for my photo of the Ferris Wheel, I mentioned frustrations I was having with getting the IR remote shutter release working. I was determined to fix it or ditch it....and fix it I did. In celebration we had a Mexican dinner down at Redcliffe where I shot this scene of the quite low light on the Jetty across the road. It was only 6.00pm, we got away early. Winter!

Such a delight to find these on Rogers Pass on the way home! There was probably a hundred other photographers there today...it was a scene I'll never forget viewing these gorgeous and somewhat uncommon flowers that only grow in high elevations! :) I am having a terrible time loading my photos...been trying for several hours...don't know if it's Flickr or internet...anyone else having problems?

Zoals voorgaande edities is de Stoomstichting Nederland te gast bij Terug naar Toen met hun West-Duitse stoomlocs, al leek het tot een paar uur voor de overbrenging vanuit Rotterdam Noord goederen dat de 01 1075 de grote afwezige zal worden tijdens het evenement. Begin dit jaar liep de machine schade aan de wielbanden op (in de praktijk een serieus probleem) en moesten deze voor herstel naar Meiningen gestuurd worden.
Een paar uur voor de overbrenging maakte de SSN tot ieders verbazing bekend dat, mede door de hoge inspanningen van de vrijwilligers in Rotterdam, de machtige 01 1075 tóch nog op tijd bedrijfsklaar was om mee te gaan met het transport naar de Veluwe. Na een succesvolle proefrit op lage snelheid op het emplacement van Rotterdam Noord Goederen ging de 01.10 als tweede loc achter de 23'er mee naar Loenen. Tevens werd de overbrenging ook beschouwd als proefrit op de hoofdbaan.
In het bewolkte Ellecom werd de overbrenging van het geheel uit Rotterdam opgewacht dat om 17:17 aan de aanwezige fotografen passeren en bijna Dieren bereikt hebben. Achterop de trein zat als extraatje de Railexperts 9902, welke tijdens het evenement op het depot in Beekbergen te bewonderen was.
