This was taken on our first visit to this beach.

Usually I prefer to shoot early or late in the day when the light & colour are more special & I've posted one from here at sunset before.

However, I think the really blue icebergs look better in diffuse light - on this day the sky was very dark & dramatic.

The older & more stressed the glacial ice - the bluer the icebergs & these would have been very very old indeed, (& had a stressful existence probably crushed hard & bumping along the bottom of the glacier).

 

It had been snowing - you can see some snow on top of the iceberg although by now it was raining, which meant literally wiping the filters after every single shot, waiting for the wave then taking the cloth away & hoping that the filters would stay dry long enough to get the shot which was a bit of a bummer (but at least you know you're filters aren't dusty).

Needless to say we only got a few before packing up!

Quite liked the moody drama in this one which only served to highlight the intensity of the blues

 

If monochrome is your thing - just look away now or pretend that this is merely an illusion, & that the icebergs are in reality a humdrum shade of greyishness! ;)

 

Many Thanks to Everyone who took the trouble to view comment or fave :)

Another view of the slip at McCrae showing the other houses and large hole where the house had been!

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth,

And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth

Of sun-split clouds, --and done a hundred things

You have not dreamed of --Wheeled and soared and swung

High in the sunlit silence..."

 

John McGee

The comings and goings on the corner of Church Street and Shoreham High Street. 3 buses, cars passing and turning in and the nicely lit record shop helped create the image.

My monthly shot using this technique.

Didn't notice when i shot the scene but how many faces can you see in the concrete. Lost souls?

 

Good-bye 'little one'.

We'll miss you! This song says it perfectly...

I read the news today, oh boy,

About a lucky man who made the grade,

And though the news was rather sad …

I’d love to turn you on”

I’ve seen a lot of photos in the news lately with “1.5° to Survive” written on people’s palms. Then this morning saw that 200 nations attending COP27 have agreed to start (yet another) fund to assist developing countries with adaptation to climate change; but the conference made no progress on cutting emissions. So I wrote “1.5°“ on my never-calloused, winter-dried fingertips, because the opportunity has slipped away. No surprise, sensible people have known for awhile, The Economist finally said so in plain English earlier this month:

Slip, slip, slip, please oh please slip

As it maneuvers through the dense thicket, its large hooves make minimal noise against the forest floor, displaying a remarkable agility for its size. Its senses are keen, ears swiveling to catch any rustle or snap of a twig, while its keen eyes scan the surroundings for any sign of danger or opportunity.

Slip Sliding Away (8770)

Imagine walking carefully on a flat white valley floor completely aglow from the light of a full moon on a whisper-quiet evening. That is Racetrack Playa in Death Valley N.P., CA, far from anywhere, and utterly enchanting. For the longest time, none of us were sure these mysterious stones left these tracks while sliding across the parched desert floor. Although we know now, it's still magical.

I met up with my friend Lance Keimig (National Parks At Night) and a beautiful group of people in DVNP. We went out late nights to photograph the amazing sites. This was my last photo of the evening, as it was cold and others had retreated to the car or were packing up. I knew I didn't have enough time for star trails, so I set the camera to a shorter exposure. I ran around, illuminating the rock and the flat white ground with white and red light from my handheld flashlight while the tripod-mounted camera shutter remained open. Thanks, and feel free to share!

I know that this is just a weed, but I think that it is kind of COOL! The two on the top look like they are going to slip away! Have a super afternoon! Made Explore!!

Time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping into the future...

Canada Geese on Sloan's Pond.

Have a nice Sunday!

From last spring, finding this spot required a combination of interweb searching for the legal trails, bouldering down hills in the rain, avoiding poison oak and snakes... but sometimes as crazy as that might sound, I’d do it again in a second for the peacefulness of that blue water.

On the drive home from work I was compelled to take a few shots. After flying 1.7 hours and having a 30 mile view of this beautiful country I had to document some of it..

Slip showing...lovely.

Wet rocks are SUPER slick. One wrong step and you're sitting down.

Might want to see this one LARGE!

 

Slipping and sliding is what it took to get this image. I had 6 falls, about 5 close calls, got a sprained thumb from one of the six falls, a wind burnt face from the 30mph freezing cold winds and one frozen foot to get this shot. It was worth it and would do it again. Hope everyone is have a great week, looks like the snow is finally coming, and I guess it will be a while before we see frozen lakes again. Thanks for the visit.
