Went down to Melbourne for a few days to see some friends and ended up spending two nights in Nagambie with some friends of friends...best way to do it. For these photos, I pretty much rolled out of bed and was at the lake...this is the view from their property.
Shift panorama with TS-E 17 of one of the main squares in Boston right near Boylston St. Busy city morning!
In addition both exposures were shot with the Fotodiox Wonderpana kit, 155mm Circular Polarizer, and a 6x8 3-stop graduated neutral density (GND) filter.
Got some great shots over London on approach to landing at Heathrow. I tried a tilt-shift filter on this one...
The sand dunes and the whole of East Head is slowly changing shape as the years go on . Playing with my new ND grads today.The 0.6 was perhaps too strong against the beach but the effect is quite dramatic all the same.

Nakayan says:
The miniature garden photograph of Hibiya Line was taken from the Royal Parks Tower Minamisenju.
Although a route is Hibiya Line of Tokyo Metro, the train is a train of Tobu Isesaki Line.
Hibiya Line and Tobu Isesaki Line are connected at the next Kitasenju station.

DIY 6x9 monorail camera made of beech wood.
Shutter and lens are from a Polaroid CU 5 camera. It's a Copal shutter with up to 125th of a second and a nice T mode where the shutter stays open without being pressed like in B mode. It closes if the shutter is triggered again. The lens is a Tominon 75mm f4.5 which is a wide angle lens equal to 30mm on 135 film. The lens is able to cover 6x9 (2x3 inches) and allows some tilting and shifting too. Unfortunately the tilting is limited, as you can see in the image because the focal point at infinity is at a distance of 60mm between the front and back standard :-(
I'm using a filmback of a defective Mamiya Press. All the other stuff is custom made (like the bellows, the frames, the lens board etc).
Now it is time to take her out for some serious tests...

I've come so far since I was a young girl, bouncing through my life, barely seeing what was in front of me for the thrill of the next experience. . . as if my real life lived somewhere over the horizon. I don't know if it was motherhood that helped me to slow down (not always in the literal sense), or the shelter of a loving man, or the graces that come with unwanted illness. Perhaps it's just time and living itself that have been my teachers . . . but each moment comes to me now like a gift.
My life is about to shift, in small but dramatic ways. Yesterday, we had a second interview for the school initiative that I've been a part of for two years. It was intense and they ask us some really tough questions, but there is the real sense, this time, that the approval will go through, and we will move into the building and implementing phase of the project. It's been an amazing experience to create this vision with such a wildly talented and dedicated group of educators. . . to imagine young beings waiting to enter our school, and to consider what it is that they'll really need to learn and grow into capable, compassionate adults.
And in two weeks I'll begin an Applied Arts training that I have dreamt of for a very long time, to prepare me to teach handwork in our school. The idea of being the handwork teacher, as opposed to a main lesson teacher (which I also considered) thrills me. In this age of fast and "what's next", it seems such an important task to teach young people how to slow down and to create something useful and beautiful with their own two hands.
So, although I am looking ahead to all the new opportunities headed my way, it's different now. I'm taking in everything . . . savoring each and every new moment with the heart, mind and spirit of a woman that no longer squanders the gifts of this precious life.
Keys on my old Underwood typewriter I picked up at a flea market. This is my first attempt at photography for art, really.
Here's a slight shift from scenery to a few images of activity in the seaport at Portland, Maine.
We enjoy staying at a place with a view of the harbor where we can watch cargo ships, ferries, sailboats, tugs, tankers, pilot boats, coast guard vessels, and scores of private boats. It's interesting to see the activity in a busy harbor.
We were surprised on the visit by the arrival of a few large cruise ships. While there was a lot of activity associated with their port calls, we missed the wider view of the port.
When this Carnival ship arrived early one morning it was very interesting to watch it turn around in its own length under its own power and settle next to the dock. It was truly an amazing sight to see a large ship turn around in such a small space without assistance by other vessels.

We love miniatures: Legos, Playmobil, Plan City. Recently I ran across a web tool that manipulates real-life scenes to look like photographs of models. You can look at some more here or play with the tool yourself here.

These trigger shifters from the 1980s are a recent purchase. They will operate the 1987 SA 5-speed S5/2 hub gear on my 1980 Peugeot build. A RH trigger will attach to the RH toggle that shifts gears 2, 3 & 4 - like a normal 3-speed. A LH trigger will attach to the LH toggle that shifts to gears 1 & 5. I'll fit them under the brake lever hoods.
This was the closest we could get to this bird colony on the St. Lawrence (Bergin Island). Also, what started out to be clear and calm was changing by the end of the day as a cold front swept into the area binging more snow. Time enough for a few quick shots, a video or two then it was back to shore. Just like any ship plying ice filled waters, it's possible for the canoe to be trapped when an open lead closes due to shifting ice. Unlike other boats, the canoe can be lifted out of the entrapped ice (provided the paddler's are able to portage on the ice flows).

Last minute run up to Mt Tamalpais with Maximilian Laue to shoot the sunset. Not a whole lot of color since the fog was pouring over the ridge right as the sun was setting, We were buried in fog 5 min after I took this picture.
Inbound from Colombo, Sri Lanka, MAERSK SEMBAWANG hit severe weather conditions in the Bay of Biscay. 26 containers were lost in the sea and 47 were damaged on deck. The ship is now in Le Havre for inspection and unloading.
