Like water which can clearly mirror the sky and the trees only so long as its surface is undisturbed, the mind can only reflect the true image of the Self when it is tranquil and wholly relaxed.

A building in Jersey City. All I had was my iPhone, so the quality isn't great.

Svartån in Västmanland County, Sweden is 91 kilometers long. It passes through the towns of Skultuna and Västerås and has its outlet in Mälaren.

My all time high is also from this location:

The 20MP Sony IMX350 in the ultrawide module of the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 in combination with GCam in nightmode producing stacked RAW/DNG images allows night shots without a tripod in stunning quality.

Only lightstars are out of reach as there are no aperture blades.

I never saw a smartphone with so much value for the price.

Too bad that it is not in stock anymore.

108MP sensor producing 27MP RAW/DNG F1.8 OIS AF

12MP 2x F2 module AF

20MP F2.2 ultra wide angle AF

8MP 3.7x module OIS AF

All successors are much more expensive and besides that more limited in camera capabilities.

When I think about that I payed for it less than 400€ new I ask myself where are devices in this range today that deliver only nearly the quality?

Wish you all a very good and sunny weekend

Thanks for your visit and comments, I appreciate that very much!

I shot this one in the harbour of Grindavik. Reflecting in the sea is the piers wood (brown), the painted top of the pier (yellow), a nearby house (red) and the blue sky. The reflections are so sharp that you can see the lines in the brown wood. The bird is a fulmar which is a sebird relatet to the albatros but much smaller.

Habt einen schönen Dienstag !

Reflections on the glasses of the International convention center of Dubai, UAE

I Think Viewing Large On Black Is Better

Taken at Williamstown Beach in Melbourne... We were fishing at the end of a 'breakwater' - shooting back towards the shore...

It was a beautiful night... We didn't catch anything legal size to take home... but at least we were able to take some shots of the night...

This word

Is quite interesting

When you see an image like this

All you think of is the mirror effect it has on the water

"Reflection is a throw back of heat, light, or sound without absorbing it."

But when we reflect, we think deeply about the matter

So the word Reflection has two quite opposite meanings

Maybe that is why we like images with reflections so well

We don't need to deepdive into it because its not needed to be absorbed, we can just enjoy

Enjoy is super duper important

Either you are on your own

Or you are with someone

I find taking photos like we do, sometimes a bit destroying for the moments

I did tend to rush off to find more interesting places , other colors and other things to take photos of

I really must have focus on my moments of pure joy

Luckily I'm aware of it now, so I'm getting better at it

Beause I do enjoy my moments immensely

Just sitting in the glory and take it all in, it's an amazing feeling

When I'm in that special mood I also miss my lover and my best friend, so it's kind of a bittersweet experience not to share

Sometimes, well pretty often, it hurts like He........

But that comes with having feelings, and I for one is happy to have loads of them

Amen to that

I think, lol

Here is Yiruma for you, if you like piano:

And here is a video for you who wants to touch your feelings, as well as mine:

Btw, this shot is taken from a rather long distance, you'll see the size of the sheep if you look to the left of the house

I'm not always good in composing and cropping, so I was wondering if I should have cropped it a bit more, with less water

If you have any views on that I appreciate what you have to say

The photo was taken @ Torrey Pines, San Diego.

A still morning on a beautiful sunny May day when staying at a hotel at the London Docklands before flying to Florence. The buildings in the middle are of the Canary Wharf financial skyscrapers.

For "smile on saturday" and

"reflection on black"!

This is my first attempt to shoot reflection on a black background. I spent a lot of time on this task, but mostly cleaning up black smooth and shiny surfaces and mirrors. Even the dust dropped from the feather, so at the end I had to remove those tiny dust particles in Lightroom.

Have a great day and thank you for visiting,

HSoS!
