I have no idea where that quote is from, but whatever. :)
I really like this project so far. So far it has pushed me out to shoot, pushed me out to explore and pushed me to think ideas. Yesterday I was exploring one part of where I lived, today I explored the other side. And I remember this place, last time I was here was in august when I just had gotten a little more interest of photography. I know now, that if I were there in august right now I would take so many different photos. I have a completely different mind now :)
And it took me forever to edit the flame! But at least now I know how to make a flame in photoshop! :D

My dear contacts and visitors!
I’ve read lots of comments, blog posts and forum topics about my photographs, whether I use photoshop or not, and should photoshop be used at all. It’s an honest question, but, as far as I’m concern, I had a goal to use photography as ‘prima materia’, a base, and through editing create a fusion of reality and vision.
I am not a photo reporter, so I don’t feel obligated to honour every detail. What I’m trying to achieve is to emphasize the whole potential of a shot, creating a sight that I'd like if existed.. And since it’s impossible in real life, I do it in virtual :) My work is maybe more similar to ‘photo-painting’ than photography.
Join me! After all, there is a reality of everything you imagine :) If you had recognised my work, than we share the same vision, and they are yours as much as they are mine!
It’s a harmless illusion – your personal, real life reality is only a click away... :) :) :)
«Non avere paura. Il mio racconto non può farti del male malgrado quello che ho fatto e ti prometto di rimanere sdraiata buona buona al buio — magari a piangere o a vedere ancora il sangue ogni tanto — ma non distenderò più braccia e gambe per alzarmi scoprendo i denti. Mi spiego. Puoi pensare al mio racconto come a una confessione, se vuoi, ma piena di curiosità familiari solo nei sogni o quando il profilo di un cane gioca nel vapore dell'acqua che bolle. O quando una bambola di cartocci di mais su una mensola poco dopo è per terra nell'angolo di una stanza e la cattiveria che l'ha fatta finire lì è evidente.»
[Toni Morrison, “Il dono”, incipit, 2009]

Image taken with a 50/600 mm refractor with a glass Sun filter and a Sony DSC-W30 Cybershot (a compact camera) with the afocal method. The eyepiece I used was a Huygens 20 mm (24,5 mm diameter).
The Ultaran, being the decendants of Makaan, are firm believers that superiority over 'inferior races' is achieved through the construction of giant, powerfull war machines. The Ultaran Dreadnoughts are feared in every corner of the galaxy because their sniping power is immense. They deliver fantastic damage over great distances. However these ships lack the electronics to deliver that pain so far on their own. They require a couple scouts (housed within the ships docking bay) to 'target-paint' coordinates. Therefore, ironically, the immense power of these ships rely on the very fragile nature of the scouts.
------------------------------------
It's finally finished! This one is a bit bigger and more complex than what im used to, and required a couple BL orders of light grey bricks. Its inner structure is quite sturdy and the armor pannels are angled using many different techniques.
I will detail and compare the evolution of the ship through sketches and pictures at a later time. Inspired at first by Vaygr Battleships, i realize that it has more of a Sajuuk shape.

The New City Hall or New Town Hall in Hanover, Germany at night, is a city hall and was opened on July 20th, 1913, after having been under construction for 12 years.
It is a magnificent, castle-like building of the era of William II in eclectic style at the southern edge of the inner city (outside of the historic city center of Hanover).
The building is embedded in the 10 hectare Maschpark. The Old City Hall is no longer used as the main seat of administration, but houses businesses and the registry office.

Ruta de Bustelos a Ventín, dentro de la etapa 4 del sendero das Greas o GR-58, por tierras de Fornelos de Montes en O Suido......con paraguas, que es como se anduvo por nuestros montes toda la vida.
La estampa típica de un paisano gallego siempre fué con un paraguas colgado de la chaqueta a la altura de la nuca, asunto tremendamente práctico que también solucionaba la reprimenda al ganado.

(mammamia, se ci penso...)
ieri sera, la tua prima notte prima degli esami.
ed eri magnifico, nel non saper ancora nuotare bene nell'inevitabile ansia, ma nello stesso tempo, nel tenere a tranquillizzare tutti sul fatto che sapevi che era normale, e che sarebbe passata, sai?
beh, da oggi pomeriggio, giustamente, tu te la godrai, leggero e spensierato, per almeno 3 mesi, e poi, con calma, in bocca al lupo...
che t'aspetta la vita (ma quella sempre) e t'aspetta il liceo (e lì, scoprirai cos'è studiare sul serio, vecchio mio :)

Snow can wait, I forgot my mittens.
Wipe my nose, get my new boots on.
I get a little warm in my heart when I think of winter.
I put my hand in my father's glove.
I run off where the drifts get deeper.
Sleeping Beauty trips me with a frown. I hear a voice,
"You must learn to stand up for yourself 'cause I can't always be around."
He says, when you gonna make up your mind?
When you gonna love you as much as I do?
When you gonna make up your mind?
'Cause things are gonna change so fast.
All the white horses are still in bed.
I tell you that I'll always want you near.
You say that things change

Btw, what's wrong with flickr. It's so F***ing slow! Sorry I cannot help it.
Here is a shot of the beautiful wildflower filled meadows on the flanks of mount Rainier. This shot is from last fall near panorama point at 6800 ft and features views of the Tatoosh mountain range with mount Adams off in the distance. This particular day was beautiful. I saw at least a dozen deer, but as you can see in the valley below the clouds came rolling in fast and by the time I got back to my truck a light rain started. This is how fast weather can turn on Rainier which creates it's own weather, you can go from crystal blue to a white out in a matter of hours.
Thanks for taking the time to drop by I really appreciate it. Have a great week
«Una volta, nel bel mezzo di una partita di tennis, la racchetta le cade di mano, rimase immobile in mezzo al campo, guardando con occhi sognanti verso il cielo; un'altra volta lasciò cadere il cucchiaio nella minestra mentre tutti erano a tavola; mia madre si mise a gridare, lamentandosi delle macchie sulla tovaglia e sul vestito. Henriette non la sentiva nemmeno, tolse soltanto il cucchiaio dal piatto, lo asciugò nel tovagliolo e riprese a mangiare. Quando cadde per la terza volta in quello stato, mentre stavamo giocando a carte davanti al camino, mia madre si arrabbiò veramente. "Questo maledetto sognare a occhi aperti" gridò, e Henriette la guardò tutta tranquilla: "Che cosa c'è? Non ho più voglia ecco tutto" e gettò le carte che aveva ancora in mano nel fuoco del caminetto.»

The tomb of Shah Rukn-e-Alam was built between 1320 and 1324, is an unmatched pre-Moghul masterpiece. The Mausoleum of Rukn-i-Alam could possibly be considered as the glory of Multan.
From whichever side the city is approached, the most prominent thing that can be seen from miles all around is a huge dome. This dome is the Shrine of the saint. The tomb is located on the southwest side of the Fort premises. This elegant building is an octagon, 51 feet 9 inches in diameter internally, with walls 41 feet 4 inches high and 13 feet 3 inches thick, supported at the angles by sloping towers. Over this is a smaller octagon 25 feet 8 inches, on the exterior side, and 26 feet 10 inches high, leaving a narrow passage all round the top of the lower storey for the Moazzan, or public caller to prayers. The whole is surmounted by a hemispherical dome of 58 feet external diameter. The total height of the building, including a plinth of 3 feet, is 100 feet. As it stands on the high ground, the total height above the road level is 150 feet.[4]
Besides its religious importance, the mausoleum is also of considerable archaeological value as its dome is reputed to be the second largest in the world. The mausoleum is built entirely of red brick, bounded with beams of shisham wood, which have now turned black after so many centuries. The whole of the exterior is elaborately ornamented with glazed tile panels, string-courses and battlements. Colors used are dark blue, azure, and white, contrasted with the deep red of the finely polished bricks.

Cotton-top tamarins are one of three Amazonian species of tamarin and are found in a small area of northwest Colombia in a range bound by the Cauca and Magdalena Rivers and the Atlantic coast (Snowdon & Soini 1988; Groves 2001). Though the overall area bound to the north by the Magdalena River and the west by the Cauca River has historically been suitable habitat for cotton-top tamarins, they are now only found in fragmented parks and reserves throughout this area. One of the strongholds of the remaining cotton-top tamarins is in Paramillo National Park, a 540 km² (208 mi²) park containing primary and secondary forest (Mast et al. 1993).
One of the only long-term studies of wild cotton-top tamarins was started in the mid-1970s by primatologist Patricia Neyman. Not only did she habituate wild groups but she also live-trapped and marked them, allowing for qualitative research on group membership changes and life history characteristics of individual animals (Neyman 1977). More recently, Anne Savage and her colleagues began working on a long-term research and conservation project in La Reserva Forestal Protectora Serranía de Coraza-Montes de Marìa in Colombia, another principal refuge for cotton-top tamarins (Savage et al. 1996a).
It is estimated that there are between 300 and 1000 cotton-top tamarins left in Colombia (Savage 1990). There are 1800 cotton-top tamarins in captivity and of those, 64% are found in research laboratories (Savage et al. 1997a).

Lens: Sigma DX 8-16 HSM
Camera: pointing 45deg up and to the South-West
In the foreground you can see campers at the beach. The lights of Ao Nang town was too bright in this capture. Was almost a moonless night with little clouds.
Actually, on this day, I was supposed to shoot the sunset. During the afternoon, it started raining, so had a short nap in the cool air-cond room. By the time I woke up, it was 8pm! Grrrrr!!!!!!

My youngest grandchild Wilm one year old walked his first steps without taking someones hand during I was in Bielefeld. He simply still loves crawling on the ground and it doesn't matter whether on foliage in the forest or on the street ;-)).
This photo was taken on a rainy day ... Wilm was happy to crawl on the ground despite the wet grass.
Love it Large On Black
(In my next uploads I will share some other photos of Wilm with you.)

Bangladesh is the play ground of nature. She is very rich in flowers vegetation and green fields. The blue sky, the green fields, the yellow corns have an unending fascination for all. They beauties of nature in Bangladesh are sufficient to make even the unpeotical person somewhat of a poet.
The beauties of Bangladesh have been praised greatly by the travelers. The green plains and meadows, the murmuring rivers, the clear blue sky the scenes of hills and montains have made this country unequal in the world in natural beautey.
The padma, the magna, the karnafuly and many other rivers have criss-crossed the country like nest. These rivers have added to the beatuey of this land, The scences of the boats playing in these rivers present a magic beauty. The bosom of the rivers flashes like silver in the flood of moonlight.
The beauty of nature changes with the change of season. Sis means appear here with their special appeal. In summer mango trees, jack-fruit trees and many other fruit trees bend down the ripe fruits and assume and unusual look. This season fills the villages and country side various delicious and juicy fruits. Nature seems dead with scorching raws of the sun.

Y espero,aunque los años pesan,seguir visitando y disfrutando de más ruinas romanas mientras pueda sostenerme.
I wish, althoug the years keep going .., to continue visiting more roman ruins...
El teatro romano de Cartagena fue construido entre los años 5 y 1 a. C. en la ciudad de Carthago Nova, actual Cartagena. Tenía capacidad para unos seis mil espectadores, y estuvo en uso hasta el siglo III, a partir del cual se superpusieron varias edificaciones.
En 1988 fue descubierto y después de algunos años de abandono,se emprendió un ambicioso proyecto de reconstrucción y restauración del monumento.El teatro se había mantenido en muy buen estado de conservación y hasta un 60% de los materiales originales se conservaban enterrados.
En el borde superior del graderío del teatro romano, en la parte más alta de la colina en que está excavado,se construyó en el s.XIII la Catedral de Cartagena. Muchos de los muros de la catedral contienen restos de diferentes épocas...romana,bizantina, árabe....

Here we go again, MacNeill's posting photos of Lake Bled. If you said that, then I can't fault you; it is Lake Bled again and from the same viewpoint as before. I decided to post this one as well, just because the colour changed so much during the sunrise. While the last image was profoundly purple, this one is abundantly blue. I'm guessing this was coming to the end of the blue hour, as I can see some colour from the rising sun just poking up over the horizon in the midst of the serene cyan.
Are you bored of this wonderful sunrise? Perhaps. I'm still going to post it though. I think I may show one more from here in future; the sun above the horizon. Then I shall have exhausted this particular location, although it has served me well. For those that don't know, Lake Bled is in Slovenia and about an hour and a half north from the capital, Ljubljana.
You can see some more of the subtle details of this shot over at SmugMug. Failing that, try the lightbox. Thanks to everyone for getting me to #1 Explore again yesterday.
Edit:
For those people asking, the green light on the left is the illuminated Bled Castle.
