A horizontal surface of broken rock slabs used as paving stones, framed (bounded) by bricks. Some of the slabs are very rusty (oxidized), a sign of iron content in the minerals making up the rocks. Part of a courtyard-park area next to a school in the Inglewood area of southeast Calgary.

In the east part of the Beltline area (Victoria Park), close to downtown Calgary.
I used to call these "condo towers," but in recent years there has been a depressed or reduced market in Calgary for the buying of condo apartments, and many builders/owners have switched to old-fashioned monthly rentals or yearly leases in order to fill the suites in the buildings. (Office buildings are having similar trouble: approx. 30% vacancy rate downtown. These troubles are the result of a local economic recession caused by recent years of low oil prices in a city that is the headquarters of the Canadian petroleum industry.)

a quick scan off of the first test roll on the soon-to-mine Hasselblad SWC. I was a bit nervous about the range focusing on these, because i like images to be sharp... but every frame I shot the focus was exactly where I was hopping! the deep DOF really helps with that. I can't wait to travel with this camera!

Note the curving snowy hiking trail at lower left. Behind the trees and at a lower elevation are the snow-covered Elbow River and Glenmore Reservoir.

Hele uitdaging om vanuit deze hoek de grote Oosterse plataan te fotograferen. Had mijn camera schuin achterover gekanteld, tegen mijn ingeklapte statief. Met het positioneren werden hierbij een aantal keer per ongeluk knopjes ingedrukt. Waaronder dus de ISO, die op automaat sprong:( Dit zag ik pas thuis, maar desondanks toch maar geplaatst (met flinke ruisonderdrukking). Kon het niet over mijn hart verkrijgen dat alles voor niets was geweest...
A sunset taken this evening at Hickling Broad, Norfolk. Part of the broad is covered in ice adding to the effect. Taken with a Sigma 10-20 lens I've borrowed.
Das Radom oben am Gipfel der Wasserkuppe (950 m) ist ein Relikt des Kalten Krieges. Wir befinden uns hier keine 10 km vom ehemaligen "Eisernen Vorhang" entfernt. NATO-Stragen waren sich über Jahrzehnte einig: sollte der Warschauer Pakt versuchen die NATO anzugreifen (entsprechende Strategien sind nachweislich, von beiden Seiten), dann genau hier, am sogenannten "Fulda Gap".

The radome at the top of the Wasserkuppe (950 m) is a relic of the Cold War. We are located here less than 10 km from the former "Iron Curtain." NATO allies have agreed for decades: if the Warsaw Pact attempts to attack NATO (there are demonstrable strategies on both sides), it will happen right here, at the so-called "Fulda Gap."
