Península de Maraú

Ilha da Pedra Furada

Bahia / Brasil

Connection, Macro Mondays.

Enamored by the photography of the mid-nineteenth century with it's attitude toward such elements as scale, linear overlapping, and presence of space, I attempted such in this composition.

 

I am simply astonished at what those photographers created with their early photography cameras, lenses, and developing techniques.

 

Sure I took a dozen shots with the digital camera - that's the luxury of what they do... quite an abomination of artistic talent.

Only one shot worked - where the central characters are composed as a stretched diamond and suspended in a jumble of converging lines.

How the masters of the nineteenth century managed to compose their masterpieces with one shot using a view camera is beyond my comprehension.

The fascinating thing of chameleons are their eyes. They could be moved in every different direction. So they could watch back and forward at the same time!

Clark's Woods - Iowa

 

Didn't have to venture out very far to capture the early morning delights. Buds, blossoms and leaves are finally "popping" announcing that spring is here in the heartland!

 

The variety of colors, shapes and size makes a walk in the woods worth the effort!

"If you want to express yourself you must present something tangible. But after a while this has only the function of a historic document. Objects aren't very important any more. I want to get to the origin of matter, to the thought behind it." Joseph Beuys, 1969. Ignore the Exif data, this shot was done with the Helios 44M-7 wide-open.

I must admit this hasn’t been the first time to have experienced this unique bonding, when the bird accepted my presence and wouldn’t fly away. Call it “interspecies communication" if you wish, or telepathy - I don’t know (smile).

After taking a few good shots with my 400mm f5.6, I have decided to take the chance and switch lenses, for a shallower DOF. The cute owl didn't move a bit. I must admit having experienced a feeling of acceptance and trust. I gave the owl its space by not getting too close.

Shot taken at f2.8 with Canon 5dIII coupled with canon 70-200 f/2.8 II.

An ominous view over Clear Lake yesterday morning as the weather forecast was predicting freezing rain, sleet mixed with snow for our area starting late last night!

 

Well guess what? The weather man must know what he is doing because that is just what we are experiencing here this morning!

 

Sigh . . . not good!

For the first time, I fully understand where turtle necks came from.

 

A Painted Turtle in the wild.

Despite wind gust of over fifty miles an hour, tranquility and calm prevailed as I climbed Kane Mountain's 98 year old fire tower. The views are of a small corner of the southern Adirondack mountains, but amazing from any direction. Located near Caroga Lake, New York in the 518. Pentax.
