ꒌ НАЛИЧЈЕ ПОСТ-ИНДУСТРИЈСКОГ друштва —Тачан моменат заласка сунца (које је заклоњено зградом са леве стране овог кадра), мразно ветровито вече пред Божић Јелинима и Сиријцима.
► █░▓ CHRISTMAS EVE day-to-night border line. The very moment of astronomical sunset. The Sun was blocked by the nearby shipyard. It was the first clear sunset this winter here (after December solstice launch last Sunday afternoon). It took place at 231°, which is the southernmost place on the horizon in the whole year's season cycle. Just to the left beyond this frame.
This is a strange capture, a compound of extremely busy lower half and the negative space in the upper half. A mayhem. This might work better in total monochrome. There is too much to name everything. Lower left the shipyard offices. To the right behind the trees a narrow strip of Avelingen, the Boven Merwede right riverbank. Behind the river: De Werken shipyards. Further behind: De Biesbosch. In the background De Dordtse Biesbosch.
► The symbolism of this borderline industrial landscape may be obvious. The conclusion of Advent, the Christmas Eve is telling you: look at the world on the ground! It's one big mess, or made mess, skyline pollution, waterline pollution, wiring, heavy machinery dissecting the Earth, a conundrum of human attempts to reach happiness through pandemonium of tumultuous undertakings and enterprises. Most of which are destructive, or at best ludicrous. But not far from it — just a little higher — there is peace and calm, invariable space of original perfection, the gentle clear skies, the vestibule of Heaven. How many of us turn our eyes away from the ground and up into the free areas above?
Lumix G9 / Leica 100-400mm f4.0-6.3 fully zoomed in (800 mm the full-frame equivalent). Underexposed ⅓ of a stop. Handheld with support. Aperture priority f/9 resulting in 1/80 of a sec for ISO fixed at 200. AWB, sooc jpeg edited in Photos 10.0. Uncompressed, slightly cropped from 4:3 format, + Flickr B&W/'Sepia' filter (~30%). It was unattainable to get rid of the excessive orange sky colour without deteriorating the rest.

They say the weather is very changeable in Scotland , which I've always found to be true, today being no exception, the day started off in a full on blizzard in Glencoe and I didn't even get the camera out at sunrise as you couldn't see a thing, driving was hazardous to say the least as well as just narrowly missed an oncoming lorry on the A82 which had swerved onto my side of the road to avoid a large ice deposit off a previous lorry right into my path, luckily it missed me.
Headed out again after breakfast through it once again and decided to head South towards Taynuilt and Oban, once out of the snow it just didn't stop raining, all day apart from a few moments at Kilchurn Castle on Loch Awe where I managed a few shots. After spending the afternoon in Oban I decided to scout out the best vantage point for Castle Stalker for a better day as the advertised viewpoint is really poor in my view, once I found my spot the rain was easing off but the weather was still pretty poor with low cloud, and hardly any light apart from a promising tiny patch
over towards Mull, with nothing spoiling I decided to just wait here on the offchance of a break.
about 40 minutes it really picked up and I was rewarded with what turned out to be a phenomenal sunset, this image was just the start of it before the sun had fully dropped under the large bank of cloud at the top of the frame, the light was just sublime, there is no way you could have envisaged this sunset at the start of the day or even an hour before, just goes to show you really cannot predict the changes in the weather up here off sight alone, I'll post a few more of these images in the coming weeks as they are quite different, the afterglow after sundow was a stunner as well with some great pinks and purples kicking off over the loch. Spent about 2.5 hours here and loved every minute of it, only realised how cold I was once I'd got back to the car!
