A calm and peaceful moment in Penzance harbour. The film like colour tones were added using Topaz, and I was struck by how they give the scene a timeless mood.
The "old" Veijo District of Habana, Cuba with it's busy narrow, cobblestoned streets. Dating back to the 1500's it is now a UNESCO Heritage site & is being continually restored. Characterized by Hispanic-Andalusion architecture. Time seems to stand still here but it does not feel like a museum.
My interest in photography started many years ago when I took a black&white photography course while in university and learned to process film in the darkroom. Although I have always been attracted to photography, for over 25 years I was too busy with work and family to pursue it. Three years ago I purchased my first DSLR and it has quickly become a passionate hobby. Since I mainly enjoy landscape photography I always try to plan trips around being at locations during the golden hours of sunset and sunrise. Although it is immensely rewarding when conditions come together and you catch that magic light, it can also be frustrating since many times you put in a lot of effort into photographing a place and things just don't pan out.
While scouting the rim at Toroweap for my sunset and sunrise shots, I came across an older gentleman with a large format camera (the big old-style ones on a tripod) happily snapping away photographs in the blazing sun and a plain blue sky with no clouds. I asked him if he would be around for sunset and he said "No, I am working on black&white".
That rang a bell with me and although I knew no color shots would be keepers with the light conditions as they were, I decided to go back to my origins and take some shots as I walked around which I could later look at in B&W. This one turned out to be the best, and to me it has a distinctive timeless feel which is different than what you get with color. I will work on learning B&W processing and going forward hopefully I will be able to capture some images that otherwise I would have missed.
Toroweap is a National Park on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. It is the only viewpoint in the Grand Canyon from where the Colorado River can be seen vertically below. It is a relatively remote area only accessible by a 60 mile drive on a dirt road. The last stretch is rough and more suited for those with a high clearance vehicle.
A junk sails along Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong, China.
A “junk” is a very ancient and sturdy ship created by the Chinese to transport goods over long distances between major ports. Although not commonly sighted today, junks have been in existence for almost 2,000 years. They are identifiable by the authentic shape of their sails, which are designed so they can actually sail into the wind. If you visit Hong Kong, you can still observe some junks sailing through the harbour. They are beautiful, historic specimens of nautical architecture sailing along the water.

Landscape in gelderland, The Netherlands. It feels timeless to me, this view. I'm glad I captured it on a polaroid.
I don't feel like new uploads or taking pictures. I haven't felt very good lately, out of place. (I have to take photos on Saturday for school, those I will share.)
Perfect time to upload some archive photos, then.
I've got a little project coming up involving polaroids. I'll keep you posted.

I took this photo while scouting Praia da Conceicao for sunrise the next morning. The sun was blazing and high in the sky so I knew I would not get a good image in color, but I thought the high contrast and silver sheen on the water might work in B&W. Visiting Fernando de Noronha felt a bit like going back in time - walking on beautiful beaches which still look today as they did decades ago. B&W images to me have that same timeless feeling and this turned out to be one of my favorite photos from the trip.
Fernando de Noronha is an archipelago of 21 islands and islets in the Atlantic Ocean, 354 km (220 mi) off the coast of Pernambuco, in the northeast region of Brazil Only the main island is inhabited; it has an area of 18.4 km2 (7.1 sq mi) and a population of just under 3000.
In 1988, Brazil designated approximately 70% of the archipelago as a maritime national park to preserve its environment. The number of tourists is still limited by the three daily flights to the island and controls on the development of infrastructure.
In 2001 UNESCO designated it as a World Heritage Site due to its importance as a feeding ground for many different aquatic species, its large dolphin population, and as protection for the endangered animals like the hawksbill turtle.
The beautiful, sexy, fun curves of the Porsche 550 Spyder. Even though this may be a replica, it doesn't negate the inviting curves this design tempts you with. You know you want to jump into this seat and take it for a spin!

Magnolia is an ancient genus. Appearing in history before bees did, the flowers are theorized to have evolved to encourage pollination by beetles. Fossilised specimens have been found dating to 20 million years ago, and of plants identifiably belonging to the Magnoliaceae date to 95 million years ago!
