Recently, I rediscovered this photograph as I was going through some of my older files. This was taken one early morning last summer. Some of you may recognize this unique structure from past photographs that I have taken of it. This lovely building is the old water works, found on Windsor, Ontario’s riverfront. I just love the structure, and it’s unique architecture and lovely masonry. The seagulls also love to spend time perching on this building.
Another early archives shot I just rediscovered. This was a special night. We were visiting Port Talbot and were lodged in a hotel right in front of the seaside. At around 3am in the wee hours of the night the fire alarms in the hotel went off and did not stop for an eternity. We got up, went downstairs and learned that it was a false alert. We went back to our room and the alarm started again. So we decided we might as well get up and have a walk along the shore and to our immense surprise we saw THIS! Full "PINK" moon over the sea as it is known for the month of April :)
I just rediscovered my love for lush greens during early and late light conditions :)
Thanks for visits and faves.
Cheers
Joerg

I recently rediscovered this beautiful old graveyard in Windsor, Ontario. As I wandered around on this sunny fall afternoon, I was thinking about these departed souls. As I begin my ‘golden years’, I’m reminded how quickly time goes and the need, even more then ever, to cherish every moment.
I rediscovered an old photography with me (on the right) and friends when I was a student....an amusing similarity with the famous painting from Manet.......
Another picture I rediscovered while downloading and backing up this weekend. Took this in late June of 2014, which surprised me because I've stopped here a few times over the years and the light has always been terrible. Here I was shooting almost into the sun, and didn't like this picture back then, but now that I've learned a little about editing, didn't take much to get this image looking pretty good. This is the Snake River as seen below the bridge (there's a scenic view area there) going into Twin Falls, Idaho.
My little Sony NEX5R always impressed me with the quality of it's pictures. I gave this camera to my daughter so she could take pictures of my only granddaughter at the time. Funny thing is she didn't get serious about photography until I gave her my Sony a7. Sure glad I did.
Macchu Picchu Pérou
The city of Machu Pichu was only rediscovered in 1911 by explorer Hiram Bingham. It is a unique testimony to the architectural science of the Incas. Built a hundred kilometers from the city of Cuzco, it clings to 2,500 meters on the eastern slope of the Cordillera de la Vilcabamba, in the middle of lush vegetation. It is built between two large rocky peaks, Machu Pichu, the old mountain, and Huayna Pichu, the young mountain. This stronghold was practically impregnable, and it served either as a refuge for the ultimate defenders of the Inca civilization, or as a mysterious religious center. The discovery of this site is a real revelation and discovery of the Inca civilization. When you arrive on the site, you find yourself facing a group of houses in the middle of terraces. These houses belonged to the farmers, because the city was undoubtedly autonomous to provide for its needs. It is then necessary to take a small staircase which goes up in the middle of the vegetation, to notice the presence of many small yellow, red or purple orchids, before reaching the level of the house of the guardian of the sacred rock. It was in this place that the ceremonies in homage to the dead took place. It is also from this place, at the corner of the house that is the most beautiful view of the city of Machu Pichu.
La ville de Machu Pichu n'a été redécouverte qu'en 1911 par l'explorateur Hiram Bingham. C'est un témoignage unique de la science architecturale des Incas. Construit à une centaine de kilomètres de la ville de Cuzco, il s'accroche à 2500 mètres sur le versant oriental de la Cordillère de la Vilcabamba, au milieu d'une végétation luxuriante. Il est construit entre deux grands pics rocheux, le Machu Pichu, la vieille montagne, et Huayna Pichu, la jeune montagne. Cette forteresse était pratiquement imprenable et servait soit de refuge aux ultimes défenseurs de la civilisation inca, soit de mystérieux centre religieux. La découverte de ce site est une véritable révélation et découverte de la civilisation inca. Lorsque vous arrivez sur le site, vous vous retrouvez face à un groupe de maisons au milieu de terrasses. Ces maisons appartenaient aux agriculteurs, car la ville était sans aucun doute autonome pour subvenir à ses besoins. Il faut ensuite emprunter un petit escalier qui monte au milieu de la végétation, pour remarquer la présence de nombreuses petites orchidées jaunes, rouges ou violettes, avant d'atteindre le niveau de la maison du gardien du rocher sacré. C'est à cet endroit que se déroulaient les cérémonies d'hommage aux morts. C'est aussi de cet endroit, au coin de la maison, que se trouve la plus belle vue sur la ville de Machu Picchu
A rediscovered/re-edit from the spring of 2014
A Great Horned owlet gives me that one more step and it will be your last stare in the trees of Perrin Park, Jeffersonville Indiana.
Recently I rediscovered this picture from South Africa in my travel photos and it has given me wonderful memories.
On the last day of my trip I travelled around Cape Town with an open bus. The trip went along the beautiful wild coast, when I suddenly saw this beach scene. And so I took this photo from the moving bus... It still fills me with joy when I see these gorgeous waves in the light of the late afternoon.
Rediscovered this when I was searching for something earlier.
Spring painterly flypaper textured. In fact I textured this when we were trialling the new spring textures, when the textures were known by numbers rather than names :-)
Feeling a bit better today thankfully :-)
Tofu has rediscovered the place on the rocks behind the house. This may not be the most comfortable spot in the garden but it's sunny and warm in the morning and later in the year on hot summer days it offers welcome shade in the afternoon.
Taken near Big South Fork, National Park in Tennessee. Talk about forgetting where you parked your car!
I've started with rediscovering parts of my image collection with new editing software.
The image has been processed through Topaz Sharpen AI, Aurora HDR and Luminar AI.
The electrification program of the city Budapest, started with production of electricity at Kelenföldi Erőmű in June 1914. The building with the control center were designed and built by Kálmán Reichl and Virgil Borbíró between 1927 and 1929.
I can understand that this facility has become quite popular in Hollywood productions, and I was happy to be able to get in an shoot some photos between two productions. I hope I one day can revisited and yet again experiencethe light from the glass ceiling.
When Angkor was rediscovered in the early 20th century by French archaeologists, all of the temples had become overgrown–but none so spectacularly as Ta Prohm, built in the Bayon style largely in the late 12th and early 13th centuries and originally called Rajavihara. Nevertheless, as they excavated and restored the other temples, the archaeologists had to make sure that the giant tree roots enveloping Ta Prohm would not further deteriorate the structure or make it dangerous to visit. Though Ta Prohm may look like nature unfettered, the appearance of neglect is in fact fastidiously maintained.
Healing is rediscovering what was always within you.
We are coming from the source of infinite love and we are going to it.
In between we can be infinite love.
Oh, one should live differently,
be different,
more under the sky
and under the trees,
more alone
and closer to the secrets
of beauty and greatness.
Hermann Hesse

It seems that I've rediscovered the art of macro and photographing flowers, that being said, I love getting up close and personal with every subject that I've ever photographed as you can tell by my photos. I may not have the best equipment on the market but it suits me just fine, and I love my camera !
This purple flower grows in one of the gardens, the name eludes me, so any help from you plant people is appreciated.
Note..This one is for Angel who has a purple passion, hence the title..enjoy !!
The name of this flower is Astilbe also known as False Goat's Beard..Thank you Angel !!

🍑It's a stale Hershey Bar side lit from the left...;-)
The segments are about 9.5 inch = 1.25 centimeters wide.
Side-lit using a flashlight.
It's three stacked broken chunks of an opened and very stale Hershey's chocolate bar. It still had a heavenly chocolate aroma...
I rediscovered this Infrared photo I shot at the California Coast in 2019. Reworked in the 2020 Covid year. Enjoy . #ThroughHerLens
I rediscovered the Chinese Garden at Stuttgart last year and love this place. It's only a small garden but very lovely and peaceful. On Saturday morning I went there again. It was about 7.30 h when I arrived and I was alone there which was great to take some photos. I will probably post some more in the next days or maybe weeks.

When I rediscovered my love of photography about 10 years ago I decided to combine it with my other passion which was birding, taking numerous bird photos. An insane amount of them actually. So much so that one evening while out for dinner with a friend she basically told me my photos were getting boring because they were all of birds and went on to suggest that maybe I try doing a 365 in an attempt to expand my interest. I accepted the challenge and I have to say it was one of the best things I did as I soon found out I enjoyed so many other aspects of photography apart from bird photos. But every now and again I still like to spend a day wandering the trails and indulging in my first love which is setting a bird in that view finder.
An oldie rediscovered when I was cataloguing -the sea looked a bit like this on our beach walk this afternoon -no rain today thankfully.
Several fly papers used in processing.
Rediscovered this one. We were just taking pics of the lavender field then this old 'farmer' walked into the scene.
Rediscovering the delights of this old Helios 44 (thanks Simon).

It was a year ago that I rediscovered Ruth Bancroft (Dry) Garden, dedicated to plants that can survive in our climate. Our climate is akin to much of Australia, and western South Africa, and the plants reflect that. The fact that I don't have enough property to have a garden and, what I do have, is either in deep shade all morning and broiling sun in the afternoon. This does not account for all of my gardening failures.
Today, when I want color, I head to Bancroft Garden as most of you know. One of the first flowers I loved was the Alyogyne, one that Ruth hybridized over 50 years ago.
These two flowers were on an eight foot branch on a 15 foot spreading bush. I kep taking shots of these flowers, sure that they would go out of bloom soon. But, they, and their yellow and pink counterparts, flowered for two months. I'm just trying to transition from present to archives and to where I started 11.5 months ago.
Alyogyne huegelii is a flowering plant found in the Southwest botanical province of Western Australia, extending along its entire coastline. A large flowered shrub, the species favours the sands of coastal shrublands and heath.
The large flower, highly variable in colour, is similar to that of Hibiscus. It was previously placed in that genus, and is commonly named lilac hibiscus and blue hibiscus. It is widely cultivated as a flowering plant for the garden. Previously published varieties and cultivars are no longer formally recognised.
A nose-gay of Anemones, a gift of flowers, a gift of beauty, a gift of love.
Anemone coronaria is a species of flowering plant in the genus Anemone, native to the Mediterranean region.
No, I DO NOT talk to flowers, they talk to me, I listen... with my eyes!
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

Like many others I’ve been mining the archives as opportunities to get out and shoot diminish. This is from our 2017 meet-up in British Columbia with a bunch of the kindest, most talented photographers you could ever hope to meet. Inspired by [https://www.flickr.com/photos/jennilou101] ‘s vibrant greens. F4.5, what was I thinking?
The bridge was built in 1899 and was then the highest bridge in the northern countries. In 1929, the bridge was obsolete to the standard train gauge and it was covered with sand. The sand has preserved the bridge almost without damage and rust. In 2014, the old railway bridge at Gammelstrup was dug free.
While editing old images during lockdown I rediscovered the photo which won a travel competition for the Wanderlust Travel Magazine
back in 2018.
The following two images are alternative frames taken at the same time as the winning shot. I can not decide which one I prefer, and would love to hear your thoughts and reasons why. In addition I have increased the colour saturation in these shots, particularly of the car. I will post the second image shortly for comparison. Cheers!

I am rediscovering X-E1. Combination with manual lens is perfect for slow photography, nature, close ups, but I am struggling a bit to focus properly on the streets.
Contrast, tones, sharpness on this particular image are from camera, no postprocessing. Little crop to center the window frame.
(From the 2010 Archives)
The Backstory: Don and his wife had been in Egypt the day before this shot was taken, and Don, being the adventurer, stopped at a street-side cafe to enjoy one last cup of tea before traveling on to Jordan. Apparently, the tea water had not been boiled sufficiently and Don was extremely ill within a few hours. His wife and fellow travelers managed to get him to Jordan and put him to bed. After a night’s sleep and a large quantity of Imodium, Don was back on the Camel, so to speak, and made it to Petra where he took this photo with his trusty Point and Shoot.
Petra is a historical and archaeological city in southern Jordan. Petra lies around Jabal Al-Madbah in a basin surrounded by mountains which form the eastern flank of the Arabah valley that runs from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba. The area around Petra has been inhabited from as early as 7000 BC, and the Nabataeans might have settled in what would become the capital city of their kingdom, as early as the 4th century BC.
The Nabataeans were nomadic Arabs who invested in Petra's proximity to the trade routes by establishing it as a major regional trading hub.
The trading business gained the Nabataeans considerable revenue and Petra became the focus of their wealth. The Nabataeans were accustomed to living in the barren deserts, unlike their enemies, and were able to repel attacks by taking advantage of the area's mountainous terrain.
They were particularly skillful in harvesting rainwater, agriculture and stone carving. Petra flourished in the 1st century AD, when its famous "The Treasury" structure – believed to be the mausoleum of Nabataean king Aretas IV – was constructed, and its population peaked at an estimated 20,000 inhabitants.
Although the Nabataean kingdom became a client state of the Roman Empire in the first century BC, it was only in 106 AD that it lost its independence. Petra fell to the Romans, who annexed Nabataea and renamed it as Arabia Petraea. Petra's importance declined as sea trade routes emerged, and after an earthquake in 363 destroyed many structures.
In the Byzantine era several Christian churches were built, but the city continued to decline, and by the early Islamic era it was abandoned except for a handful of nomads. It remained unknown to the world until it was rediscovered in 1812 by Johann Ludwig Burckhardt.
Access to the city is through a 1.2-kilometre-long (0.75 mi) gorge called the Siq, which leads directly to the The Treasury.
Famous for its rock-cut architecture and water conduit system, Petra is also called the 'Rose City' because of the color of the stone from which it is carved. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1985. UNESCO has described Petra as "one of the most precious cultural properties of man's cultural heritage".
