A color version from this spot. Careful balancing required because it's about a nine-foot drop down to the bottom of the circular pit the track turntable sets into.
Back to RIAT 2018, and the Ukrainian Sukhoi SU-27 turns hard in front of the FRIAT stand, burners blazing.
If only I could have captured the sound and visceral feeling of power!
With its train safely stashed between the two legs of the why, PM 1225 slowly creeps out of the east leg of the wye in Cadillac as one of the conductors stands guard at the switch. This wye is very light rail and listening to it creep and pop as the berk creeps around it is a interesting sound and feeling.

A little yacht, making its way down river: I know not from whence it did come nor where it did hope to go, it was zig-zagging against a firm wind and the turning tide (rising) as it headed past. Nothing large on the river in the immediate vicinity but a number of ships coming in on the tide. Good luck to them.
It's possible that zig zagging is the best way to sail into a wind and against the tide: I remember years back being told to zig zag when walking up steep hills rather than try to go straight up, which, for me, did actually help !
The camera was on its Defocus Background setting.

About:
One should think this is a sunset over the Oslo fjord. But on the shortest day of the year, this is just about all we get to see of the sun :) I was at home preparing for Christmas, when I saw these fine clouds. So I strapped Ludo (my Alaskan Husky) to my bike and went out to Huk on Bygdøy, a small peninsula on the western side of Oslo. This is my favorite place in Oslo at winter time, when there is almost no people :)

I tried my Cokin ND8 grad filter on this shot. But didn't do much for me :( Guess there is no point in using that when I think in HDR :)
Post Processing:
I turned the temperature up a little bit from 4700K to 6250K in the individual RAW images, giving the scene a warmer tone.

Noise reduction has been applied to get rid of the noise in the sky from the HDR process. A little cloning to fix some lens flares.

The man was demonstrating wood turning in Castlewellan in Northern Ireland. He turned a simple piece of wood into a toy with ease. I used a higher ISO and wide aperture to get the shutter speed up to catch the saw dust as it sprayed off the wood.

sorry for being so absent, but life got in the way and I also got a strep throat. Fun times. This picture was taken before I fell of the grid, when we were attending an Indian wedding. I wanted to fit in :)
