Finally :) It is so good to be back!
I got back from my work trip just today so just posting another image from the archives. I'm off to shoot again this weekend and I hope to get a few good shots to share with you all.
This is another image from the town of Hue, which was the ancient capital of Vietnam. The architecture is very much influenced by Chinese and we were treated with some beautiful structure, mausoleums and the grand ancient citadel.
Hope everybody is doing good. Will catchup with your stream today. Thanks for dropping by!

One of three photographic partial views of "Endlessly Repeating Twentieth Century Modernism", Josiah McElheny, 2007. Blown mirrored glass, mirrors, metal, wood, and electric lighting. Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
Curator's description: "McElheny hand-blew the dozens of glass vessels in this perfect machined, mirrored box, basing them on 20th-century designs. Their glinting reflections reed in an infinitely repeating pattern. The work is inspired by an enclosed and completely reflective world of pure form imagined by architect Buckminster Fuller and sculptor Isamu Noguchi in 1929. By crafting a version of their idea, McElheny reveals what a world purged of human presence and individuality looks like. Though brimming with beautiful objects, it is a place apart, devoid of life."
As I recall, the box is square, maybe a cube, about 2m on a side, with windows all around, containing various arrangements of bottles, with the tallest maybe about 0.3m. _0706h
I took an image of this tree in the fields between Bromsgrove and Kidderminster....the rest is me playing around with it in Adobe Photoshop! Now I've uploaded it I can see where it needs improvement! I'll leave it up for a bit, while I improve my beginners skills in Photoshop. As you can probably see I'm learning how to use layers.

Castle at Disney World. There were some ducks swimming around that gave the reflection a ripple effect, but it will have to do :).

Got something to say, sit down on the bed
Something that I usually leave unsaid
It doesn't come so easily, I guess that's no surprise
I wanna see my heart's reflection in your eyes

Reflections
If you enlarge the water droplet on the right hand petal of this snowdrop you will see a reflection of the church which has very special memories for Mrs P and I from many many years ago, ding dong💕🎉💃😎
Right, back to serious stuff, in the early hours of this morning Nipper went out into our garages and fired up the Jensen Interceptor.
I hear you all say what is Nipper still doing at your house.
Well lend me your ear, as you all know Mrs Penberthey went to Jamaica on a last minute holiday deal and asked Horace to look after Nipper, her young Jack Russell.🚙🐶🐾🐾
Now as her homeward flight was hurtling down the runway of Montego Bay a thrust bearing broke up in one of the engines of the coffee machine.
Therefore the aeroplane had to taxi back to the stand, as ‘Village Airways’ have extremely high standards.
Mrs Penberthey face timed Nipper with this information and guess what, Nipper was straight on the phone to the bearing manufactures and told them not to supply a bearing as he was having so much fun with Hoof and Horace, so keep the plane there as long as possible.
There you have it.🐶😉
Where were we, yes the Jensen, Nipper drove it around to Hoof’s shed, hitched up a caravan, not any old grockle box, this was a state of the art command centre.
We are talking communication systems not even thought of yet that have been fitted to this CC. Forget 4G and 5G, these are more Ali G.📡
Hoof and Horace collected a large tarpaulin from the shed, a few tent poles and pegs the three of them then set off to West Cornwall on a mission.
Their aim is to suppress Storm Dennis, the plan is to erect a piece of tarpaulin from Land’s End across to The Lizard, in turn this might deflect a large percentage of the winds coming in from the Atlantic and send them skywards helping to protect large areas of the UK.⛺️⛺️💨💨💨
As Nipper was driving past Land’s End airport Hoof asked him to drive in as he felt he should inform the ground staff of their high tech plan and that he would be operating highly sophisticated communications systems in this area.📡📡
So the boys were invited in for elevenses in order to discuss the windbreak plan (steady) During these discussions Nipper noticed a policeman wearing a pilot’s uniform and said to Horace “that’s a bit odd” Horace said “it’s okay it’s a plane clothes cop.👮♂️🚓
I will leave you with this thought, Hoof was recently checking in his suitcases at an airport and asked the operative who was weighing them, “could you send one of my bags to Miami, send one to Florida, send one to Boston”.
They said “we are very sorry we can’t do that”
Hoof said “why not, you did it last time".✈️
Stay safe over the weekend.💨💨💨⛈⛈⛈⛑
Thank you very much for looking at my shots, your comments and banter are so appreciated. 👍🍺🍺🍺🍷🍷🍷🐎🐷🐶💃😎😂😂😂

I have uploaded this as part of my reflections collection, i also love the detail in the foreground, you can even see the mounds of sand that the lugworms have made
Reflection #4....beach towels drying on the side of a boat and reflecting in the water on Spa Creek.
I am now
In a world where I
Have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow
I will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am

Second picture of my series Reflections, all taken in the Albufera of Valencia.
(This time a self-portrait in the blue hour, just after sunset, between day and night.)
Albufera means, according to its Arab origin, small sea.
In some poems it was called the Mirror of the Sun.
On the technical side, say that I only used a neutral gradient three steps filter. I put the camera on the tripod and put the ten-second timer.
I did several tests, I had to run a lot to get to the end of the old pier and then I stayed for 20 seconds still as a statue, then ran again to the beginning and shoted two times of manual flash in hand to illuminate softly the wood.
I hope you like it. Have a nice Friday. :)
