The topic I'm repeating is "Defining Beauty". I love poinsettias this time of year.

Dead Camelthorn trees in Deadvlei, shot on our Namibia photo tour a couple of years ago in rare foggy conditions. The giant Namib sand dunes are towering above the fog in the background.
Every time a publisher asks me for an image, or someone orders a fine art print, the same thing happens. I search for the file on my computer, open it in Photoshop, and think: why did I process it like this? Then I start fine tuning the image, correcting small mistakes, and I end up with a version that is much better. Every single time. The differences are never big, but big enough for me to put in the effort. Some of my older images have been through this process quite a few times, and it’s interesting to see them evolve over time.
I get great satisfaction out of reworking my images for two reasons: the images will be better afterwards, and the fact that I’m working on them again means that my vision and taste evolves. What I thought looked good three years ago, now often doesn’t look that good anymore. And that’s a great feeling.
Yesterday I opened this image to prepare it for printing, and after a short inspection, I decided to rework it. Sometimes I only the settings of some of the adjustment layers, or add a couple, but in this case I started all over again from scratch. I think the end result is much better than the previous version from 2012, even though most people won’t see the difference - especially at this size. The large print now shows much more detail in the foreground tree, and the overal contrast and color has also improved.
What I also like about this phenomenon is that in order to find the original NEF file in Lightroom, I had to visit the folder again and saw all the other images that I shot around the same time, but hadn’t processed yet. So after I had finished processing this one, I ended up processing two other images and two panos that I would otherwise have forgotten about.
If you would like to join us to Namibia, then you’re in luck - our 2016, 2017 and 2018 (!) tours are already fully booked, but we have added extra tours for 2017 and 2018. Those tours will be led by one of the finest landscape photographers here on 500px and beyond: Ryan Dyar. Ryan is also a post-processing wizard, and he will show you a bunch of tricks to get the most out of your images.
If you want to visit Namibia, look no further. We were the first company to offer photography tours to Namibia, and there is no better organized Namibia tour out there. Also, we are still the only company that offers microlight flights over the famous Namibian sand dunes, which happens to be the best way to do aerial photography, and also the most fun.
If you're interested in joining Ryan to Namibia, please check out our website for more information, images, video clips, and a very detailed tour PDF: www.squiver.com
Hope to see you there!

I've been back to this location a few times since my initial long exposure shot with my phone a few weeks back. Here's another take on the scene using my Fujifilm X-T2 ...
Another rain storm, another plant with raindrops picture.
Besides, it gives me another chance to use the word "Redux"

The Adventurers are back! The original team this time accompanied by Johnny’s friend Mike are back in Egypt for the search of the Staff of Anubis!
This figure line-up is a redux of the original Adventurers line from 1998 + Mike (Dino Island) and Anubis (Pharaoh’s Quest). All of these were mostly designed in 2019-2020 so I’m happy to finally having been able to put them together, and now also to reveal them. Considering this theme is my all-time favourite original LEGO theme, I just had to make modernized versions of them, and I’m super pleased with how they look.
I’m hoping to feature these figures in at least another 3-4 builds the next few years. Thanks to all of those who have inspired me to get back into the rhythm of things with LEGO and also inspired me to build from this great theme. Stay tuned for the MOC reveal tomorrow!
Smoke 18/10/2021 Smell 13/09/2021 smoke-smell are the themes I have chosen, these are my favorites and those that stimulated me, perhaps because they are impalpable

A b+w treatment of a previous image. I thought the starkness of the scene would work well without colour.

march 6 : egg
This are springtail eggs, propably from Entomobrya sp. (E. multifasciata and E. nigrocincta where present.)
With so many good themes to choose from for "Redux 2019" I decided to go with Vasanthi's theme White on White from January 2019.
To all our Macro Mondays Members HMM and a very Happy and prosperous New Year for 2020
Better than the textures and colors of the rock, even better (maybe) than the variety of arches, was the variety of contrasting backgrounds.
