What I most love about camera paintings is when elements of the same scene get mixed. Here, for instance, the image of the trees has been mixed with the texture of the ground all in the one single exposure. This adds a lot more interest to the image. This piece will be printed 1 meter wide for the upcoming exhibition "Slowlight and the dancing trees" which will be sponsored by EPSON.

I just got back from an amazing weekend in Charleston, SC to celebrate the 4th of July. I'm really content on where I am right now.
A seagull sitting on a flagpole in front of the sun setting over Saint-Quay-Portrieux.
Tried different exposures but went with this silhouette version in the end.
Here is a shot of Devils Tower at twilight with the Belt of Venus and the Moon serving as a beautiful, colorful backdrop for the scene. I had this entire area to myself, and it really was a peaceful and serene as it looks.

Sounds like a Bourne novel title doesn't it? Was trying to find a clever title for an image that is [to me] interestingly framed. The two churches along the Limmat river form the "goal posts" and between them you have two bright stars visible in the blue hour night... except that these aren't stars, this is Jupiter (on the left) and Venus (on the right) and they are getting closer in alignment all through the month of June until they appear nearly converged towards the end of June. This is a rare alignment and I had no idea as I was framing the shot. In fact, I hadn't intended to capture any stars at all, was hoping for some sunset color reflected in the water between my Zurich "goal posts", but sunset was a total bust (almost no color whatsoever).
Taken with Pentax K-3 and trusty Pentax 12-24mm.
HFF!
I found this fence while out for a drive in the countryside. The fence posts were in perfect alignment...straight as an arrow! You don't see that very often in rural areas.
The 5 planets from Rippon Tor which visible in the pre-dawn sky. Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter.
I keep being inesorably attracted by this kind of landscape views, just close to my home environment.
The edges. The light and the darkness.
The frozen land and the warm embrace of the first light.
The flat ground and the steep hills.
It's only one moment: everything just happens and lines up perfectly.
Sometimes I just feel that it was written. And I was so lucky to be at the right time in the right place, with the right mood. But when every thing lines up just perfectly, I realize that it can't be no more a matter of Chance. It's a matter of will. And the strive for the need of romance.

Gli allineamenti perfetti
Continuo a sentirmi inesorabilmente attratto da questo tipo di immagini, più o meno tipiche della mia terra. I confini. La luce, il buio.
Il terreno congelato e il caldo abbraccio della prima luce.
L'orizzonte piatto e le colline ripide.
E' solo un momento: ogni cosa accade e si allinea perfettamente.
Qualche volta mi sembra quasi che sia stato già scritto. E che sono stato solo fortunato nel trovarmi al posto giusto, al momento giusto, con il giusto animo. Ma quando ogni cosa risulta perfettamente allineata, mi accorgo che non è sempre frutto del caso. E' un atto cosciente. E lo sforzo per la ricerca di un po' di poesia.
Da ascoltare: Norah Jones, Sunrise

Last week the conditions were perfect for the full moon and Trans America Building to intersect each other in perfect harmony. I met up with Tim McManus, and we walked down to Kirby Cove. For the long walk down, I brought a large wagon filled with two big lenses, tripod, and camera gear.
It was probably the warmest evening I have ever experienced at the Marin Headlands. We got down to the beach, and there was hardly a breeze. We set up our gear, and watched San Francisco reflect brilliant light towards us as the sun set behind us. The Golden glow from all the building's windows was amazing to watch. You could just tell with these conditions it was going to be a good moonrise! Nick Steinberg, and Stephen Boyle were set up next to us, and we waited for the moon to rise with some of the best conditions anyone could ask for.
Watching the moon ascend behind San Francisco on this evening was amazing! There were so many great moments during the moonrise, but this shot was my absolute favorite.
This is a single shot taken with a 600mm lens @ F/4 @ 1/4 second @ ISO 100.
My 600mm has no cpu chip, so my camera never records accurate exif info.
A big thanks to Tim for all his help!
Thanks for looking!

As we approach the Jupiter/Venus conjunction on 2 March, the Moon and the two planets align as they slip down to the south west soon after sunset.
It's not often that I manage to capture an image that exceeds my expectations.
I noticed this alignment of pine trees a couple of months ago, and wondered how it might look with the sun setting perfectly within the gap.
There are only a few days in any year where it would be possible to capture a photo exactly like this. Would the weather play along with my plans?
I've been returning to this exact spot most evenings this past week... hoping to capture my pre-visualised shot. Every previous attempt was a failure, with the sun disappearing behind the clouds before it appeared in my frame.
But then yesterday evening I got everything that I was hoping for... and more. I'm stoked! :)
