A Flanders' winter-sunset
waited a long time for the right moment, was on my way home when I saw this in the side mirror.
I left my car on the side of the narrow road, grabbed my camera.
Nikon F4 and 400asa film, scanned from neg and comp in camera!
This is so very typical, the gnarled willows to keep the flat land 'dry', the sky reaching poplars, the majestic elm trees standing tall against the North wind.
In winter the sun just drops,he?
Ah well I got it... M, (*_~)

A Winter Past
A journey through the hills near Leadhills on one of the snowy winter days in South Lanarkshire.
I always like a nice curving road, especially when it leads you somewhere.

A Very Happy Christmas to all my flickr friends! Another splendid year on flickr; seeing all your great pictures and exchanging thoughts and comments. Very Best Wishes to you all! Looking forward to 2009....!
Jornada a recordar por la cantidad de Zygonyx torridus que pudimos ver nada más llegar. En este momento (3'30 pm) Pipa y Pepe Ros los buscaban posados a la sombra cuando encontré a este macho de Onychogomphus forcipatus posado en la vegetación sobre el curso del agua.
Deseaba una cenital así por el fondo, y el ser un curso de agua con poca profundidad, y corriente lenta sobre lecho pedregoso, lo facilitó.

A day to remember for the amount of Zygonyx torridus that we could see as soon as we arrived. At this time (3'30 pm) Pipa and Pepe Ros were looking for them perched in the shade when I found this male of Onychogomphus forcipatus perched in the vegetation above the water course.
He wanted such a zenith at the bottom, and being a shallow watercourse, and a slow current over stony bed, made it easier.

Location: Hasselbrock (Emsland) Germany.
Description: This shot was taken about 6am yesterday morning at a small pond. Apart from a slight PS color contrast and white-point adjustment, to emphasize the given temperature, this shot comes straight from the small sensor.
Exposure: 0.5s at f/8, mounted on Manfrotto 190.
Technique: Color Contrast enhancement, whitepoint adjustment and sensor noise removal.
An old shot of Rebecca I decided to edit. It's a little different from what I normally do (noise added).
See you all soon. I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!
p.s- to those of you who won the print contest, your photos will be in the mail within a couple of days!

Thanks for looking,
Chris.

A group of Elk walk along the Snake River in Grand Teton National Park just south of Moran Junction.
This was taken from the side of road through the passenger window as I sat in the drivers seat. I saw these guys grazing so I pulled over, grabbed my camera, and framed the picture. In just a few seconds they began walk right through the image keeping a close and very leary eye on me.

A Vesper Sparrow, with food in the form of a grasshopper, paused briefly at Red Rock Coulee Natural Area south of the city of Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. It was presumably on its way to nearby young to sustain, though I did not see a nest. (The small chestnut patch visible at the top of its wing is a diagnostic feature for this species.)

I wish all my friends a
Sunday morning, up with the lark
I think I'll take a walk in the park
Hey hey hey, it's a beautiful day
I've got someone waiting for me
And when I see her I know that she'll say
Hey hey hey, what a beautiful day
Hi hi hi, beautiful Sunday
This is my my my beautiful day
When you said said said said that you loved me
Oh my my my its a beautiful day
Birds are singing, you by my side
Lets take a car and go for a ride
Hey hey hey, it's a beautiful day
We'll drive on and follow the sun
Making Sunday go on and on
Hey hey hey it's a beautiful day
Hi hi hi, beautiful Sunday
This is my my my beautiful day
When you said said said said that you loved me
Oh my my my its a beautiful day
As already earlier described I am not really a peoples photographer. I always feel a little bit embarrassed when doing it, but in Central Asia there were so many situations with lovely people, heartbreaking situations, or people that show the vulnarability of life, that it was difficult to shut my eyes.
This shot is somewhat funny, but also it shows that life in these areas can be tough. People make long days to earn a little bit of money, so sometimes the body is just too tired to keep going.
For me the remembrance of the wonderful people in CA is something I will never forget in my life, and it has changed my opinion of these countries (and people in general) in a definitive way. This shot is to honor them.
20 September 2019 I came back from my journey over a part of the Silk Road to and through Central Asia. 4 months of traveling through 14 countries (Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran) before I flew home from Teheran. An impressive journey in countries that are extremely beautiful, with lovely and welcoming people and diverse cultures and history.
Intense traveling with more than 20000 kilometers in our mobile home on sometimes roads that hardly could be called that way. We saw many villages and cities (some wonderful, others very ugly), countries that are transforming from the old Soviet era into something more related to older cultures and the way people live, often funded by oil readily available around the Caspian sea. We saw the amazing mountains south of the Black Sea, the wonderful Caucasus, and the high mountains in the far east close to China with peaks over 7000 meter, and not to forget the (Bulgarian) Alps!
We crossed the great steppe of Kazakhstan. a drive of at least 5000 km, the remnants of lake Aral, once one of the biggest lakes of the world, saw a rocket launch from Baikonur (this little part is Russian owned), we crossed many high mountains passes, and drove the breathtaking canyon that comes from the Pamir, beginning at ca 4500 meter, and going down for ca. 400km to an altitude of 1300 meter, driving for 100's of kilometers along the Afghan border.
And then the numerous lakes with all sorts of different colors from deep cobalt blue to turquoise, and one rare spectacle in Turkmenistan where a gas crater is burning already for more than 40 years. And finally and certainly not the least to mention an enormous amount of wonderful, hospitable and welcoming people. The woman often dressed in wonderful dresses, and bringing a lot of color in the streets of almost of all countries we visited.
These lunch walks...Etty says it below so well...it takes time to absorb the wonder that surrounds us. The camera makes me look at the detail in the ordinary. In the ordinary is the HOLY. I feel so blessed...

“Slowly but surely I have been soaking Rilke up these last few months: the man, his work and his life. And that is probably the only right way with literature, with study, with people or with anything else: to let it all soak in, to let it all mature slowly inside you until it has become a part of yourself. That, too, is a growing process. Everything is a growing process. And in between, emotions and sensations that strike you like lightning. But still the most important thing is the organic process of growing.”
― Etty Hillesum, An Interrupted Life: The Diaries, 1941-1943; and Letters from Westerbork
“One must marry one's feelings to one's beliefs and ideas. That is probably the only way to achieve a measure of harmony in one's life.”
