Crescent City, California
Sea stacks and rocks along the coast near Crescent City. A setting sun gives the warm glow and a telephoto lens the apparent compression.
South Stack Lighthouse, the iconic view for anyone who goes to South Stack, I keep saying I have taken enough, but then think well one more...
This lightning composite occurred as the last of twilight and moon were visible. 8 raw frames were stacked and lightened in Photoshop. This developing thunderstorm remained nearly stationary for several minutes allowing for this concentration of cloud to ground strikes. I regret not having my Fujifilm camera with a longer lens on this spot.
Concrete swirling up the the atrium at Salvador Dali museum, sort of like Salvador Dalí's signature mustache did.

Using a video clip of 9.5 minutes long from a Fujifilm X-T5, 16-55mm f/2.8 lens @ f/5.6 & 55mm, I screen saved the best lightning bolts that failed to reach the ground. There are about 2 dozen frames that were stacked and lightened in Photoshop. Note fireworks on the horizon.
Because these strokes never grounded, their brightness was not blown out. I then took the grounded lightning and stacked 8 images to produce: www.flickr.com/photos/cloud_spirit/54632788645.
Looking directly down upon dead and drained C40-8M locomotives siting awaiting their fate at the scrappers torch.
Of course, I made a point to look for empty chairs and tea sets to photograph on the holiday....
A few of you seemed to like Zoey Van Goey yesterday, so here's another. Sadly, they are no more, but they left behind some good tunes. This one is "We Don't Have That Kind of Bread": youtu.be/W3h7nmL9PKM
A sluggish, wet bumblebee (species unknown) afforded me a close-up photo, shot on my smartphone, with a homemade macro add-on lens.
This is my first attempt at focus stacking. I took two photos with my phone, which naturally had two slightly different slices of the insect in focus. I manually aligned them in GIMP, and selectively erased as appropriate.
I know, some people do this a lot and are far better at it than me, but doing it for the first time did give a small sense of achievement.
My trusty magnetic measuring spoons, dressed up for Macro Monday.
I had the "clever idea" of putting different colors of water in each spoon, but ended up spilling it instead. But as I started to clean up, I noticed the spilled dye made great color reflections and --- voila!
The spoons are 2 inches long from front to back and 1.5 inches tall.

Loaded and empty T-Bird trains sit single file outside of the Thunderdome. The 2112 will take the loaded T-Bird south after a stack train off of the DWP clears the interlocking. Both the C40s and ancient ore cars are gone from this operation.
These stacked Ferraris can be seen at the Ferrari dealership on Burrard St. in Vancouver, BC...They switch out the showcased cars occasionally...The cars are not always a Ferrari red colour...
These massive Limestone Stacks provide home for nesting seabirds for part of the year. They are named after the Guillemot's that thrive here, Elegug being the Welsh word for them.
I visited 3 times during my weeks stay here and got very different conditions. This particular evening the light was pretty good, but the sky was spectacular. I tried a few different techniques, LE, Grads and this one with a circular polariser which gave more emphasis on that sky (Not to everyones taste I'm sure).
I had the place more or less to myself on all 3 evenings, which was a surprise. The dry weather had certainly killed off a lot of the cliff top foliage, but I did manage to use this hardy little plant to provide a modicum of foreground interest.
Cheese burger with lots of yummy layers for the Looking Close... On Friday challenge: "Food With Layers."
A lovely visit to South Stack Lighthouse with my brother. We gave this location three chances for colour. First evening, you couldn't see it, the fog was so thick. Next morning was promising and it gave colour, greens, blues and greys but sadly no lovely sunrise and then again in the evening, it was not too be. Ended up coming home early, due to a raging tooth infection and swollen face, so there will be a revisit!
One of my favorite, more colorful stack trains on this route heads by the transitway with a sea of red stacks in tow. They will make a quick stop for a crew change at 44th Avenue before heading across the Staples Sub.

Rose, stack of 8 images. Now that we are confined to our home it is time to do some long due experimenting.

No.1 Croydon office block (formerly called NLA Tower, but also nicknamed the 50p building because of its multi-sided shape).
Designed in a brutalist style by architect Richard Seifert & Partners and completed in 1970.
The "stacked" bubbles of Abraham Lake are indeed interesting, especially when they form stacks with interesting shapes like you see here. We had a fun time finding cool bubbles like these to photograph!
Picked some shells from a nearby beach sometime ago.
The smallest shell on top is about half an inch.
For Macro Mondays, Stack.
A sea stack is a large stack of rock in the sea that looks like a tall stone tower, separated from the main shoreline. They can occur wherever there is a water body and a cliff. Sea stacks can be found on all seven continents, and each highlights a subtle difference in how they are formed. Famous examples exist everywhere from Australia to Ireland, Iceland, and Russia. Some of them are long and flat, while others are tall, thin, and pointed.
Coastal erosion or the slow wearing of rock by water and wind over very long periods of time causes a stack to form. All sea stacks start out as part of nearby rock formations. Over millennia, wind and waves break the rock down. The force of the two creates cracks in the stone, and, little by little, cracks become chips, which fall off the main rock.
When enough chips fall off, holes are created that extend from one rock outcrop side to the other. Eventually, the wind and water break through to the other side, creating a cave or arch. Over many more generations, this arch also falls away, separating one part of the rock from the original cliff, resulting in the sea stack.
I waited at this spot on the Chattooga River until dark hoping a colorful sunset would emerge but the sky just turned gray instead, This image was made about 1/2 hour before sunset when the setting sun illuminated the underside of the clouds, casting a golden light on the water. I got a nice 2 hour hike in the dark back to my truck, but a lovely day on the river, so worth it.
