The Zlatorog is a superb Slovenia folk beast/hero, who when shot by a hunter goes wild in rage and gores out a valley from rock.
A chamois or mountain goat, I kind of saw his determined, wild eyes and horns in the flow of the water. It's shot just downstream from this light painting at the Mala Savica stone bridge which I took last year.
If you get there early and work as the night falls, you forget how horrifically scary it is when it's dark. And by then you have to leave anyway. It's easy to understand how these folk tales, and grimmer ones, came to life in Central Europe. Walking along with a military spec LED and second torch to light my way is a thing of terror, even though there's nothing in the woods. Try that with whale oil in a sputtering lantern and bears, wolves, bandits, etc. lurking in the shadows.
Still - this was an experiment. The left is lit with feathered continuous light from an LED. The right is lit from below with a single 1/8 power zap from a Canon 600EX-RT. Without adding light the scene would have been black.
I started shooting long exposure in urban surrounds, looking for scenes with movement that could be blurred over ten minutes. As I started to shoot long exposure in the country, things looked flat. Movement being blurred, it turned out, isn't what appealed to me in the urban environments - rather it was the way that light sources were limited, and how that changed the mood.
The more I shoot rural long exposure, the more I find that means adding light to sculpt the scene to your vision - or you are left, to my mind, a little flat.
Hope everyone is having an incredible start to the weekend!
It’s the subtle things that are significant in our lives, yet we too often miss to notice them.

Sleeping Swan II
A re-edit of an image I took 2 years ago today. Since then I feel I have grown as a photographer in many ways including gaining far more skills in post processing.
I have been using @captureonepro for nearly a year now and as I needed to learn how it worked, it almost reset my editing approach. I think I had become too complacent and reliant on presets. I have found many benefits to Capture One Pro which I will put down in a future blog post.
This image was edited in Capture One Pro and the first thing I noticed was the colours. Capture One’s RAW processing appeared to make the colours pop more than before.
Let me know what you think.

This stream crosses I-5 near Canyonville several times as it works it's way down the mountain. It's mostly hidden from the highway, but if you look closely as you drive by you can catch a small glimpse. I had missed two spots before pulling over to walk a little ways into the woods where I thought it might be. Got lucky.
Last month on one of my walks at American Canyon a raptor flew up quite a ways ahead of me and proceeded to fly right past me...this gave me plenty of time to aim and focus on him as he went 'whizzing by' me. When I returned home I realized it was a young Merlin carrying a Dowitcher...can't help it...poor Dowitcher!

today's the 24th of dezember, which marks christmas eve and the day I was born, nineteen years ago.
I woke up early this morning with the weirdest feeling inside that I ever have when it's my birthday. but this time it was different. I had the feeling that something was wrong, that it is acceptable for me to get one year older.
a friend of mine just asked me how I'd feel to be nineteen now (she asked me that question as a joke, saying that she doesn't like to be ask that question every year). I replied that my self-esteem isn't growing as I don't have a job or a place to study yet. it rather makes me said to know that there's so much ahead and I haven't done anything of it in this past year. I want to go to university now, I want to have a job, I want to live on my own.
it's saddening as well that my brother was one step ahead as he was turning nineteen.
but I am pretty sure that I'm going to achieve all my goals set for the next year. I'll go to university as soon as I can and I will make my dreams come true.
as I stepped into the woods some days ago, the dog by my side, I came across this beautiful tree lying on the ground. I fell in love with its branches and the way they run. I liked it a lot to make it to a symbol of my life. for all the ways I've already walked in my past nineteen years and for all the ways lying ahead. I don't know which one I'll take but I think that each way will hold something for me.
to all the people who liked my art and supported me for what I am doing, I'd like to wish you a merry christmas and may all the dreams come true for you!
thank you all for the support. I love you as much as I can!
Which way to go? The shortest way, the straight one? Or the most beautiful? Or the one that leads to the ocean? Or towards the sun? Which way to go?
