A construção da Estrada de Ferro iniciou no ano de 1910, idealizada pelo médico sanitarista Emílio Marcondes Ribas, apoiado pelo Dr. Victor Godinho. As antigas máquinas à vapor levavam até 12 horas para completar o trajeto de 47 quilômetros de trilhos de Pindamonhangaba à Campos do Jordão. Hoje as máquinas são movidas a energia elétrica, mas a maior parte da tecnologia utilizada no início do século perdura até hoje, conservando o estilo e romantismo antigo.
A partir de Campos do Jordão é possível fazer um passeio pelas principais vilas da cidade: Capivari, Jaguaribe e Abernéssia, num percurso de 4 quilômetros . O passeio se dá através do bondinho urbano (conhecido como camarão), uma simpática e charmosa máquina em estilo inglês, que proporciona a oportunidade de apreciar imagens de um ponto de vista exclusivo, entre as duas principais e mais arborizadas avenidas de Campos.

Starry Night sky over Balanced Rock in Arches National Park. As tall as 23 men, or a 13-story building --the total height of Balanced Rock is about 128 feet (39 m), with the balancing rock rising 55 feet (16.75 m) above the base. The big rock on top is the size of three school buses. This sandstone formation has been light painted from a distance of about 250 feet by a moving, diffused, quartz halogen light (from camera left). Camera direction is east. Photographed about three hours after sunset. (See the "notes" indicating Taurus, Pleiades, and the planet Jupiter.) You gotta see this on black and larger (click on image, or press the "L" key)!

Please enjoy this very colorful, southwestern view of the Seattle skyline at sunset on what was probably the warmest day of the year so far at 73F / 23C. It was a gorgeous day which, of course, transitioned into this marvelous, warm, and breezy evening.

After hiding out during the winter months, the summer Milky Way rises during the early morning hours. This area is near the center of our own Milky Way Galaxy. The yellowish stuff is stars and stardust combined. Dark nebula can be seen interrupting the stardust regions.

Just a quick hello - received my new camera today :)
The D800 is mighty awesome. Please have a look at the full size - i uploaded it with the maximal pixel size this time.
Look at the first comment to see how it looked out of cam. There's an unbelievable amount of detail to in the shadows. Shadow lifted with +100 in LR. It feels like the D5100/D7000 in post processing in this regards, but it's even a tad better regarding the noise in the shadows
Please note that I did not apply ANY noise reduction - not even in Lightroom
Inside the Mount Bromo crater - Gunung Bromo - an active volcano and part of the Tengger massif, located in East Java, Indonesia.
The volcano belongs to the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park. The name of Bromo derived from Javanese pronunciation of Brahma, the Hindu creator god.
At 2,329 metres (7,641 ft) it is not the highest peak of the massif, but is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Java island.
Noppharat Thara Beach, Ao Nang, Krabi, Thailand
11.36pm, 19.Nov.2011, f5.6, 30sec, ISO-800
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!!!!!!
I can finally lay this location to rest. This was my fifth visit to this spot and I finally captured what I wanted: raging surf and cloud action. The combination of conditions has always eluded in my previous visits, only getting one or the other. This shot was taken down in Point Lobos State Reserve, the northern edge of Big Sur. Point Lobos is one of my favorite areas of the California central coast. It has coastal forests, various coves, beaches, wildlife, and has endless compositions for photography. If I lived closer to here I would probably be down here almost every weekend for the spectacular views it offers.
Enough with the background info, here’s the story behind the shot. The Bay Area was rocked by some of the largest thunderstorms the night before. I contemplated heading out to SF to capture the epic storms but ultimately ended up sitting at home. In my almost four years in the Bay Area, the series of thunderstorms was the most intense I have encountered. The main cells passed the night before but a few patch thunderstorms remained throughout Friday. On my way down to Point Lobos, I encountered one of such patch thunderstorms on Hwy 101. I felt like I was driving through monsoon season in the southwest.
The central coast was full of drama from the passing thunderstorms. The surf was much more rough and higher than I had ever seen at Point Lobos. This shot was more difficult to pull off than appears. Though I was well above Pinnacle Rock, the high surf continuously kicked up significant mist that kept bombarding me. On top of that the surf created foam that tended to blow out my highlights or created wave action that appeared like a giant swatch of white. I realized I had to time it with the right sized wave and with an exposure not too long to get the shot I wanted. I waited, shielding my filters from the mist, and I sprang into action when the proper waves moved in. I managed to capture the rough wave action detailing the unrest of the ocean, light beams behind the clouds, and a patch thunderstorm that appeared out of nowhere on the horizon.
Hope you enjoy!

«Ho posato la maschera
Ho posato la maschera e mi sono visto allo specchio...
Ero il bambino di tanti anni fa...
Non ero cambiato per niente...
E' questo il vantaggio di sapersi togliere la maschera
Si è sempre il bambino
il passato che resta,
il bambino.
Ho posato la maschera e me la sono rimessa.
Così è meglio.
Così sono la maschera.
E ritorno alla normalità come a un capolinea.»

L'Erythronium dens-canis (dente di cane)
è una pianta erbacea bulbosa appartenente alla famiglia delle Liliacee. Ha fiori rosei e solitari, che sbocciano all'inizio della primavera, nei prati delle Prealpi, in zone fredde ma riparate. La specie vive solo nel continente europeo. È una pianta commestibile, consumata a crudo, insieme ad altre insalate, o lessata, è una liliacea graziosissima con fiore di colore rosa con petali rovesciati all’infuori che lasciano in vista le antere bluastre e lo stimma trilobo. Fiorisce tra marzo e maggio. E’ tipico dei boschi e degli incolti. Ha bulbi rigonfiati inferiormente dai quali nascono due foglie, di colore verde scuro macchiato di rosso - bruno, a forma ovata o bislungo - lanceolata. Il nome "dens-canis" (volg. dente di cane) è dovuto alla forma del bulbo che è piccolo e acuminato superiormente, così da ricordare un dente di cane.

All of them are driven by poverty and many of them even can not get to eat three times in a day. Still,
you can see the unique joy in their faces while you meet them. Our poor children other than their
poverty-struck life. That is their innocence and simplicity that keeps them happy, smiling and gives
mental strength to cope up with a life that is full of hunger, poverty as well as natural calamities.
Harry Potter and Mickey Mouse may not reach to these poverty-hit children, but you will get to know that these children also have their own playing stuffs like clay, sand, water, tress, they also playing in the seashore, laughing, flying kite, bathing in the river without caring anything else and the other things from the nature. Nature and children are very closely in my country and they do seem no less happy than the children who have access to Harry Potter and Mickey Mouse.

When I said in the previous post that the next few uploads will likely be more of the same, I meant more from Scotland, not necessarily more sunsets. So here's another, from the same day as the bike ride along Loch Shiel.
In my Flickr profile I mention how there is potential for truly staggering images when landsapes and abstract collide. This is exactly the kind of thing I mean, with the blurry reflections. But you can judge for yourself whether this is truly staggering or not. It was taken in the middle of the day so the light is quite flat, but I don't think it is too bad a shot! :-)
There is a lot of truth in the saying that "less is more" Showing the sky in this particular shot does not add anything to the image. In fact, I would say it takes away and "more is less"!! :-)
Chances are somebody will say "show us the version with sky so we can compare" so here it is in the comment box below. This is a different shot by the way, I didn't crop it from the one below.
The late lamented Theatre Royal on Hawkins Street in Dublin.
Thanks to swordscookie for this information on the monument in the foreground:
"Monument to Constable Jeremiah Sheehan, 6' 4" tall of the DMP who went down into a drain at this point to rescue some council workmen who had been overcome with sewer gas and lost his own life!"
Niall McAuley contributed this brilliant link outlining the long history of the Theatre Royal "including the programme of the final show, the "Royale Finale", which was on Saturday 30th of June at 8pm, just three months after this photo."

Update
Reached eXplore #16 today - thx for your visits, faves and comments!
Cool story about this shot
I already told you about Richard Wilson's *sculpture* "Slice of Reality" (from the year 2000), 15% of an old dredger, the other 85% is cut off. I'm a big fan of this location since I 'discovered it' back in 2010.
The funny thing is when I'm in London and I ask someone about this piece of pop-art, nobody knows of its existence. Anyway, it was on my wishlist to visit it at friday night together with Scott Wilson. I googled the Thames tides table, so I knew we would have low tide over there between 8 and 11 o' clock in the evening.
So after doing our bankside and Tower Bridge tour I suggested to take the tube to North Greenwich (O2) and so we did. To get down to the Thames it's a short walk from the O2, and when we descended towards the muddy area alongside the river Scott immediately recognized the photographic possibilites of this awesome place, yelling: "Now this is hardcore photography!" Hehe, and it sure was - especially after doing the 'tourist thing' on the Tower Bridge, LOL.
It's a fantastic place for long exposure stuff, huge clouds (and airplanes) rapidly passing by plus the pretty lights of Canary Wharf. All this, together with that huge, quite absurd sliced ship made it all quite surreal!
So there we were waving about with torches to lit up the intestines of the ship, slipping and sliding over the muddy banks of the Thames, sinking deep here and there, splashing away, while trying to keep an eye on each other not to end up in our shots all the time (we both were working with ULTRA wide angles, hehe). We were having a ball!
Actually, I was so enchanted by the whole 'moment' of being there, in a foreign country, in another metropole, at such a stunning photographic location under such excellent conditions, together with Scott who I only just met in the afternoon... it was mindblowing. I was so perplexed I only took about 25 shots in 2 to 3 hours or something.
Get back! oh wait...
In fact we were so excited we didn't even realize the water came back so fast! The difference between low and high tide in the Thames is about 7 meters (21 ft.) and we we're doing perfectly alright close to the 'Slice of Reality', but we didn't realize the water already got back around the corner, where we entered the area! Thank goodness there were still a few (slippery) rocks along the embankment sticking out above the water which we used to make it back to where we came from. If it wasn't for Scott helping me out with my gear I'd probably be stuck there, waiting for a helicopter! LOL
Whatever, even if we should have waded out of that place it still would be the pinnacle of our London meet-up, I'm sure Scott would agree. I hope you all enjoy the shot(s)!

Another photo from that amazing late afternoon / early evening nature walk last Sunday; it was perfect outside, one of the nicest weather days we have had so far!
Beautiful warm breeze, sun shining down and illuminating everything with a golden glow, trees standing tall, watching over the meltwater streams flowing by, and the river just beyond...really a wonderful time for a walk!
The amazing light was due to the fact that it was late afternoon, getting into evening, and the sun was just beginning to set!
Here we have two creatures that can see in the dark. Demetrius the cat, and the D800. Dark is an understatement. We're talking f/1.4, 85mm @ 1/30th sec, and ISO 25,600. What's more impressive than the low-light handling is the fact the AF locked on with absolutely no problems.
Versus the D700, when downsampled to match, I'd say the D800 is around 1-1/2 stops better. If I nail the exposure, I would definitely feel comfortable with a 25,600 image at 5x7... *maybe* 8x10 if the stars were aligned. I'd say I felt this way about the D700 at ~ISO 8000.
But, that's relative. I say that about the D700, but in practice I would *never* go above 6400 because of the loss of detail. Noise I can deal with, but the problem is that images start to look soft on the D700 when that high. I mean, check out the whiskers in this shot! I'd say it's easily TWO full stops more usable... if not 2-1/3rd.

Unos días más tarde de su alineamiento más próximo, pero aún tuve tiempo anoche de disfrutar del cielo cántabro en el valle de Iguña, una zona con poca contaminación lumínica, salvo la autovía de la meseta A-67.
No tuve paciencia para esperar a la oscuridad de la noche (hoy había que madrugar), así que pude captar este ocaso,con el cielo anaranjado y con el humo de un incendio forestal.
