This image of the iconic Durdle Door on England's Jurassic Coast is brought to you by 8 hours in the car over 320 miles; 6000 footsteps; sub-zero temperatures; cold fingers; wet jeans; and darkness so extreme my 30 sec test shots at ISO6400 were only just usable. Hope it was worth it?
With the aforementioned factors in mind, I now have a pretty good idea why there are very few other star trail images from this location... a few more details on my blog.

Retiring hogger JW heads under the Ackerville 164 bridge one last time while a CN employee. While I never met him before, it was still cool to be a part of his last day, and not too shabby power either!
Went for a walk in Jack Point Park Sunday afternoon and found a Starling nest right at feeding time.

Geceye dogarken ay
Siliverdi adımlarımı zaman
Yaşlı kaldırımlardan.
Bir nagmedir,
Alıp başını giden ıssızlıkta bir hicran.
Dur dedi bir ses
Nereye kadar?

Once I saw Fashionistas4U93's picture of Chandra in front of this H&M shopping bag as a background www.flickr.com/photos/fashionistas4u93/11260250384/in/pho... I knew that I had to use mine for a photoshoot with one of my models in the near future as well. And since my FF Summer just got a body-upgrade I thought that it was her time to shine ;-)

Unfinished Buddha is the name given to a statue which is believed to have originated from the largest stupa of Borobudur. It is currently located in Karmawibhangga Museum.
The Unfinished Buddha is so-called because of its incomplete nature; the hands of the statue are not fully carved, the right arm is longer than the left and one of the shoulders is bigger than the other.
The large central stupa that crowns the Borobudur monument has a hollow chamber within, that is completely walled off from the outside. When opened during the monument's restoration, it was found to contain an unfinished Buddha image that may represent a transcendent spiritual state.
Although the original location of the statue has been a matter of dispute, it is now appears that the statue was probably originally in the stupa: there is, however, a possibility that it might not have been established there as a religiously significant item. Some scholars argue that the statue is unfinished because it was deemed flawed. Rather than destroy a Buddha statue, the supervisor of the project may have placed it in the stupa simply to get rid of it.
From 1907 to 1911, Theodore Van Erp supervised the restoration of Borobudur. He found the main stupa was empty, but discovered the Unfinished Buddha buried in the dirt inside it. For there was no proof about its origin at the time, Van Erp had it put under a pili tree next to the temple. He believed that those statue was a failed one and was thrown away. His opinion was supported by Prof. Soekmono in 1973, because the statue was never mentioned in the time of Borobudur's recovery in the era of Raffles in 1814.
Van Erp's action didn't go without negative critics by some archeologists, they commented that he should put it back inside the stupa instead of leaving it outside the temple. According to Bernard Kempers, those statue was intentional left unfinished, and from the Chinese record of 604 CE, there was a same misshaped Buddha statue in India.
In 1994, Prof. Soekmono wrote an archeological journal in which he told the true reason why he didn't put the statue back inside the main stupa. The reason is that they would have had to partially dismantle the stupa which was restored by Van Erp, and that that action would clash with the spirit of reconstruction of that time. But he believed that the misshaped statue was indeed originated from the inside of the main stupa. Based on Serat Centhini chapter 105 verses 8–9, Prof. Soekmono found a story about the statue. One night, Mas Cebolang, the main character of Serat Centhini, was sleeping next to the main stupa of Borobudur and saw a big Buddha statue which was unfinished. Cebolang asked why there was the unfinished statue in the top, and he considered that those statue was intentionally left broken.
