ROSE photos on Flickr

Well this wasn't what I was expecting when I set off at about 04:30am to go and shoot some heather with the hope of some mist. I went to Bratley View to see what was going on and was pretty disappointed as when I got there not a hint of mist and no obvious shots 'near' the parking area as light was flat and I could not spend long as had to get to work. I thought I'd go scout the area around Mogshade pond on the other side of the road whilst I was there.

Started shooting but light remained mostly flat with the odd burst of light when the sun briefly found a gap in the clouds.

However, across to the east there seemed to be some light coming through and when I glanced back the next time a small area of the landscape was really kicking off!

I quickly banged on the 70-200mm lens and forgot about heather and just started snapping away. It was just a few mins then the sun rose a bit too high but for those few mins the mixture of light generating the heat to create the mist was fabulous to see. It was no more then a few degrees on the horizon but the power of the zoom really brings the image to life. Wished I hadn't left the 100-400mm in the car!

Thanks for viewing.

Un pote m'a demandé de lui faire une couverture de single, j'avais fait ça mais il voulait un fond blanc .. COOL !

A friend wanted me to do his cover for a single, I did this one but he wanted a high key pic ...

All the Snowflakes Floating There by SolanoSnapper

27 29

And did you know

That every flake of snow

That forms so high

In the grey winter sky

And falls so far

Is a bright six-pointed star?

Each crystal grows

A flower as perfect as a rose.

Lace could never make

The patterns of a flake.

No brooch

Of figured silver could approach

Its delicate craftsmanship. And think:

Each pattern is distinct.

Of all the snowflakes floating there –

The million million in the air –

None is the same. Each star

Is newly forged, as faces are,

Shaped to its own design

Like yours and mine.

And yet… each one

Melts when its flight is done;

Holds frozen loveliness

A moment, even less;

Suspends itself in time –

And passes like a rhyme.

Snowflakes

I decided on a rose wax seal stamp for this week's challenge. I love the marbled effect created by mixing different coloured wax beads. The stamp is about 1¼" wide.

For this week's Macro Mondays group theme, Stamp.
