Reflecting the glen - An amazing light play on the impressive Aonach Eagach ridge and the view up the glen reflected in the super still waters of Loch Achtriochtan. Looking up from Glencoe, Aonach Eagach dominates the scene up the glen, its hard not to be transfixed by this view when conditions are like this.
Glencoe, Highland Scotland
Driving through the winding back roads in Lane county Oregon looking for magic then boom. This rusty tin roof reflecting in a pond popped out just before nightfall. It was beyond magical. A photograph could never translate the decaying beauty set before my eyes, but I had to try.
a portrait steeped in quiet reflection and timeless dignity. captured at bar cristal on plaça espanya in palma de mallorca, this moment speaks of stories untold and wisdom gained through the years. the interplay of light and shadow draws you in, while the bustling energy of bar cristal fades into the background. this is more than a photographâitâs a window into a life well-lived.
Somewhere along 17 Mile Drive, this cute little squirrel is reflecting it's thoughts over the Pacific Ocean, the deepest ocean there is.

Consecutively numbered GP20C-ECOs (CP 2252 & CP 2253) are reflected in some water as CP F95 heads towards Fleischmann's off the CP Lasalle Loop Spur to lift empties.
It has been almost 4 years to the day that I last took a photograph, when my daughter was just over 1 year old. Today, I finally took both kids to a waterfall i've always liked and got to share it with them. It feels like a new chapter has opened, taking them to amazing locations, and capturing new memories with a new camera. There's a few things that have improved, particularly the photo editing and detail extracted from new camera technology.
With film, everything took time, was slow and every shot considered. I never considered this waterfall good enough for for film (it cost about $20 per shot for film and processing), but with digital it really doesn't matter how many shots you take. Finally, a shot of these cascading waterfalls on my flickr account.
It's important to take time to reflect and remember what is important and what serves you best. Much easier to say than to do....I'm working on it. Hope you have a wonderful Friday!
The sea is always a good place to reflect and regain new energy. What palce do you prefer to reflect and regain energy?
Ox carts, The Thatbyinnyu Temple (Burmese: သဗ္ဗညု ဘုရား, [θaʔ bjɪ̀ɰ̃ ɲ̥ṵ pʰəjá]; Pali: Sabbannu or "the Omniscient") is a Theravadin Buddhist temple in Bagan (Pagan), Myanmar. The temple is recognized as a monument in the Bagan Archeological Area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Completed in 1150–51 during the reign of King Sithu I, the temple reflected the Bagan period's "innovative architectural and artistic creativity" and "an expression of the self-confident Burmese spirit of nationhood."[note 1] At the pinnacle height of 66 m (217 ft), the five-story Thatbyinnyu is known as the tallest temple in Bagan, alongside the tallest stupa in Bagan, the 100 m (328 ft) Shwesandaw.
The temple was badly damaged by the earthquakes of 1975 and 2016. It is undergoing restoration work with Chinese technical and financial assistance; the restoration work is expected to last until about 2028.
The Milky way is the galaxy that contains our Solar System. It's name is derived from it's appearance in the sky as a dim glowing band that arches across the night sky typically most prevalent when no moon is present, and in the northern hemisphere from Spring to Fall. Individual stars cannot typically be seen by the naked eye, but they are what makes up the band we see. Galileo first discovered this. Today, milky way photography has become a fairly common thing. Anyone with a DSLR these days can typically take a shot of the sky by using a tripod, and a long exposure to come up with stars.
The challenge of these types of shots is usually lighting, and star trails. There are methods of stacking that are used to get rid of star trails, or alternatively many use the rule of 400, which says that if you divide you focal length into 400, you approximately get how many seconds you can leave the shutter open without seeing star trails. In practice this is heavily dependent on how sensitive your camera is. One of the methods I used for this photograph is called exposure blending. In order to get light into the foreground, I left the shutter open for a bit longer, and shot the sky separately, then later in Photoshop I combine the two images. This allows me to get a fairly sharp foreground, without star trails.
Reflecting Pool was taken at Beaver Lake in North Pole Alaska...on the way home from walk about in town ...was trying to catch some water fowl photos but they kept flying away ..did not have time to wait them out ....this part of lake is covered with fallen leaves just floating on top ..It snowed today and i managed to get a few shots of snow covered things ..I hate seeing the first snows but am happy when temps spiral down and everything is freeze dry .....

I was fortunate to have a day and an evening to tour and photograph in DC last week. I was even more fortunate to meet flickr friend Scott McLeod there
(www.flickr.com/photos/dscottmcleod) for a walking tour. Scott made the trip a success with his suggestions on places and times and even exposures. Look at Scotts truly great channel.
This is a three shot combination into HDR in LR then I sharpened it in NIK to give the present look.
Having missed a couple of recent sunsets through a touch of apathy I took myself off this morning to capture a sunrise. In fairness to the BBC the forecast of great conditions had changed from yesterday evening by 0330 this morning, but I was already up so decided to press on regardless. Unfortunately the forecast was right; heavy cloud and drizzle greeted me at a variety of lochs on my way down to the Aviemore area. I spent the last 40 minutes or so prior to sun-up in my car along side Loch Morlich feeling a bit sorry for myself. I decided to try a new location, Ruthven Barracks, but made an unscheduled and unexpectedly rewarding stop at Loch Alvie on the way. The low sun was casting some lovely light onto Alvie church and the trees and hills around the loch. The water had stilled making for some great reflections and some now patchy cloud was drifting across the lower hill slopes.
