Reykjanesbaer stacks - a climb down to sea level from the lava rocks and in a cave looking out on this scene about to get soaked, but this is what was needed to get the best view of these dramatic sea stacks.
Some rework using Define 2 to improve the image.
Image data :- Nikon D750 with Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8, f/7.1, 24mm, shutter 1/400, ISO 125.
Lockdown has caused so much to disruption to every day lives. Here we have Staithe's crab and lobster cages all stacked up waiting to go.
With a long intermodal train in tow, CP 8747 races eastward past the 10,600 ft siding at Gap, Alberta. The train has conquered the climbs of Rogers Pass and Kicking Horse Pass, so from here it's all a gentle downgrade along the Bow River to Calgary.
In the distance are the peaks of Mt Lawrence Grassi and Ha Ling Peak, part of Bow Valley Wildland Provincial Park.

These are old long play records (LPs) from the older, slower days. They rotated at 33 1/3 rotations per minute.
This is a composite of 14 stacked photos (adding to the theme).
When stacking lighting frames (in this case 18 frames), there is always a tendency to overdue the number of strikes. A balance between too many and too few is challenging. In this image, I could've used more than twice as many frames but the impact due to the loss of detail would have been obvious.
This lightning storm was captured using my Fujifilm X-T3, Fujinon 16-55mm @ 16mm, f/2.8, iso 3200, 0.25s exp per frame (movie mode @ 4K), I cropped the clip and extracted only the best strikes. Most lightning occurred between 15 and 25 miles to my south. This activity was over a 6.5 minute period.
Yes! Quilt top in a day! I am convinced quilting is best as a team sport, after yesterday's session with The Aunts.
Now I have to wait until July to get back together with them to finish it. Meanwhile, I'm dreaming up my next top.

South Stack Lighthouse was built by Trinity House in 1809, marking a tiny islet off Anglesey at the north west tip of Wales. The lighthouse is built on Ynys Lawd, a small rocky island just off the edge of Holy Island, which itself is an island just barely separate from the main part of Anglesey Island.
This amazing stack is at Cathedral Cove Beach, Coromandel Peninsula, NZ.
Very many thanks to Nick Twyford www.flickr.com/photos/67654596@N04
I spent a number of memorable days in his company visiting various locations around Coromandel.Peninsula and out to West coast beach's
On this occasion we trekked down to Cathedral Cove from Hahei with our torches at 0430hrs hoping to find an empty beach and catch a sunrise. Unfortunately no clouds.
A magical time..

peace!
The South Stack Lighthouse has warned passing ships of the treacherous rocks below since its completion in 1809. The 91-foot (28m)-tall on South Stack was designed by Daniel Alexander and the main light is visible to vessels for 28 miles, and was designed to allow safe passage for ships on the treacherous Dublin-Holyhead-Liverpool sea route. It provided the first beacon along the northern coast of Anglesea for east-bound ships.It is followed by other lighthouses, fog horns and other markers at North Stack, Holyhead Breakwater, The Skerries, The Mice, Point Lynas and at the south-east tip of the island Trwyn Du. The lighthouse is now operated remotely by Trinity House.
Visitors can climb to the top of the lighthouse and tour the engine room and exhibition area.
PLEASE VIEW LARGE! As an added point of interest, there are exactly 400 steps down to reach the island!!
This is a quick and dirty stacking of 21 lightning images. The quick part is to place the images in camera raw, reduce exposure so only lightning is clearly visible, save, then stack into Photoshop, lighten resulting image then lighten exposure as necessary to bring out the foreground.
This method avoids using masks for nearly each image in the stack. The downside is that some movement (leafs, clouds, cars, etc.) will not be fixed and sharp. That's the dirty side of this technique. Sometimes the images can tolerate less post-processing.
iLightningCam2 app was used for this night display.

These huge sea stacks are located at Duncansby Head, the far North Easterly point of the UK mainland, very close to John o Groats. I wasn't quite prepared for just how impressive they are in real life, they are magnificent. The beach there is fantastic for foregrounds which I've tried to capture the essence of here. The day wasn't the best for photography and so I waited until there was a hint of the coming twilight before I took the shot.
This was part of a curtailed trip doing the NC500 route and can be seen in my latest vlog here: youtu.be/AyCevz-0vUY
This focus stack turned out better, although the constant wind was giving me a hard time. Still room for improvement, and maybe next time under better environmental conditions.
9 towers 7 cd's tall; three rows are joined to the center, then the centers are all joined in the very middle... which has a spiral stack on top.
sorry, the Requiem is somewhere in the spiral stack, however, Rimsky-Korsakov's Sheherazade now has the spot of honor.
this is it: I've run out of cd cases :(
Just outside of CN's Kirk Yard near Gary, Indiana, freight moves arrive and depart simultaneously, making scenes like these relatively commonplace anytime a visit is made.

I've photographed this sea stack before but was never very happy with the outcome so this morning, after waking up at just before 4am, I thought I'd head back and have another go at it.
A double stack train for the Ports of LA and Long Beach is next in a long parade of westbounds at Verdemont. In the background, M-BARSDG rests on the main. Cargill's grain elevator is visible on the left side of the frame.
This 6x77s interval stacked image was lightened in Photoshop. Fire Skies are one of the best uses of this type of post-processing. In this equivalent 7.7 minutes elapsed time, the start and end of the fire sky is depicted.

Rock balancing can be a performance art, a spectacle, or a devotion, depending upon the interpretation by its audience. Essentially, it involves placing some combination of rock or stone in arrangements which require patience and sensitivity to generate, and which appear to be physically impossible while actually being only highly improbable.
