Der Münchener U-Bahnhof Harthof: Die säulenlose Bahnsteighalle strahlt eine gewisse Nüchternheit aus, ist sie doch in ihrer Gestaltung vergleichsweise "unaufregend". Bei näherer Betrachtung fallen jedoch die durchdacht integrierte Beleuchtung und der behutsame Umgang mit Formen, Farben und Materialien auf. Die gefaltete Dachkonstruktion dient gleichermaßen als Lichtreflektor wie auch als gliederndes Element des Bahnsteigs, hat man doch das Gefühl, in einem Bauwerk mit herkömmlichen Dach zu sein. Die mit hellrosa und granatroten Glasfliesen verzierten Wände nehmen Bezug auf das kräftige rot des Linienbandes. Geplant wurde der Bahnhof vom Architektur-büro Obermeyer in Zusammenarbeit mit dem städtischen U-Bahn-Referat. Eröffnung:

Munich’s Harthof Underground Station: The columnless platform hall exudes a certain sobriety, since its design is comparatively “inexciting. ” On closer inspection, however, the well-thought-out integrated lighting and the careful handling of shapes, colours and materials stand out. The folded roof construction serves both as a light reflector and as a structural element of the platform, since you have the feeling of being in a building with a conventional roof. The walls decorated with light pink and garnet red glass tiles refer to the strong red of the line ribbon. The station was planned by the Obermeyer architectural office in collaboration with the city’s subway department. Opening: 20 November 1993. (Source: www. u-bahn-muenchen. de)

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!

Here's my first post of IR picture.
Since several months, I did some tests, looking for the good conditions with the light and doing many post processing trials.
Not easy, but I personally appreciate the final visual rendering.
Hope this can be shared !
"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.
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!

When viewed small this image seems to be one thing but as it get larger it switches and it's true perspective emerges. I liked the pattern but also the surprise.
SOOC - pretty much.
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!

M+ Art Museum; West Kowloon cultural district
A museum "dedicated to collecting, exhibiting, and interpreting visual art, design and architecture, moving image, and Hong Kong visual culture of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries"
Shot at an art exhibition that was celebrating interplay between ideas and cultural multiplicity. The theme was to showcase how artists do not confine themselves to a singular art-making language, medium, or style—but, rather, range across a spectrum of possibilities.
Personal note: I really did not understand most of the art work or the idea behind it, but they were nice to look at !

An image taken when I was in New Mexico photographing an Indian Day School in Sanostee, near Ship Rock. It was a pretty breezy evening with red dust blowing. I turned around to get the wind out of my face, and this is the view I saw. That's Mitten Rock on the right and the road is Indian Service Rte 13 heading towards Arizona.

Bookshelf Theater
Surrounded by eight-meter-tall bookshelves, the library houses about 30,000 titles, including next to KADOKAWA publications also items from the private collections of Genyoshi Kadokawa, Kenkichi Yamamoto, Rizo Takeuchi, Shuzen Hokama. It also serves as a stage for audio-visual projection mapping events themed on "playing and interacting with books."
(Quote from the museum's homepage)
In dreams, I see shapes and colors like these and I hear music as the shapes and colors change. It seems perfect to imagine those feelings and sensations with fractals.
AB FAV for today…

I had been 'playing' with this concept for a while in my head. I called it (instead of the Silence of the Lambs) the Silence of the Bird. When I had the final result, it came to me immediately: VISUAL SILENCE.
I don't often 'dive' into the digital 'magical' darkroom that photoshop can be, but for certain projects it is a great creative tool!
Here, in the case of visual silence, what is being absorbed is not sound but gaze.
If silence is the absence of noise, then this visual silence is defined as the gradual absence, the vanishing, of what surrounds it, where we burrow from the visible surface to the invisible core. Our focus on the image involves a diminution of the optic field:
in this sense, visual silence is like a poem, its power arising from its sheer vulnerability. The image cannot be penetrated even by the most powerful of gazes because it is already open, in full view... and yet the transparency of the image, one that does not attempt to hide anything, is still capable of mystery.
Visual silence arrests us because it is the interface between two realms of partial knowledge: between he who does not know he is being watched and those who do not know what they are watching.
Some images leave us speechless, we watch them in silent awe.
Ultimately the camera is merely an extension of the human eye, it only sees and cannot wholly know what it is seeing.
May PEACE be with you and thanx for everything, M, (*_*)

Visual Magick’s Igneous mods for the Kobold are beautiful beyond words! I’m wearing Lava, and its definitely HOT! I had a lot of fun playing with particle fire to take the last 2 photos. :)
Well I’m sure it’s pretty obvious where this started from, not.
It’s another great photographic idea that flopped on implementation and subsequently to be repurposed for Sliders Sunday. Originally it was a picture of water boiling in the bottom of a pan, taken on a whim while on holiday.
Great idea. Pity about the steam clouding the image, lol.
The Topaz Glow filter, for me, is a bit like a banned substance I guess (and I have to guess ;) )...I have withdrawal problems if I don’t get a regular dose of it...
Glow needs two things to work well at this abstract end of its possible uses: some sort of linear structure to seed its collagen building algorithms and some interesting colour. The boiling water (so the idea went) was all interesting circles for the structure, but the question was how to add colour, zap, zing, pizazz and general psychedelia?
So I created a layer formed from two overlaid conical rainbow gradients and blended that with the bubbles using Soft Light. I then used a Mirror distortion filter with 6 mirrors to get the sixfold symmetry (I’ll link to the original bubbles and this interim stage - where you can just still make the bubbles out - in the first comment).
Then the real fun started. Into Topaz Glow starting with one of the Neon presets, and then sliding the sliders to taste…
Back into Affinity Photo for mangling with the hue, saturation, contrast, colour curves (LAB) and a bit of Clarity filter. And there you have it, well apart from a black frame and a blue internal shadow :)
Thanks for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image (legally) :) Happy Sliders Sunday!!
Here is my first attempt at architecture. I admire people who can just take those photos that are perfectly aligned or even know how to edit them so they are straight.
Well I dont know either but I do know that to see all these shapes in one place at a time aligned with the light and shadow is utter magic.
Here is a special thank you to my friend who brought me there. And saw me freaking out at this sight (:
