Enquanto o Sol ainda estava se espreguiçando atrás do mar, a manhã vinha avançando lentamente pelo rio, tomando o lugar da madrugada, que já seguia longe para o seu novo destino...
A Guarda do Embaú, em Santa Catarina é uma das mais belas praias do Brasil e uma de minhas preferidas.
Neste dia, tive o grande prazer de estar na companhia de pessoas que amo muito.

One of the unique features of this light is the distinctive base that give the impression of part of a ship.

Animal, vegetable or undiscovered alien critter? It's at least part anemone or antimony. Who the heck let those blue streaks in? Trump blasted me again on the Twittzler and decreed predominantly orange fireworks. Yassuh boss man! Right afterward, I got a heads up from Goosifrier 9.11. They must be cohorts of Putin? The meeting MUST go on. Trump HAS to report per contractual agreements. Disclaimer: no 1 percenters were injured by having to pay for this display!
This followed up my quick start and chat on my nice park bench over at Roger's Grove Park after I heard the previous double blast that pierced my reverie. OMG, it's more orange again! Boy, is Trump ever giving my evening shots a terrible name! This looks like some amount of zoom on the telephoto and of course, the usual jiggles.
According to the city's web site: "Roger's Grove Nature Area consists of 54.9 acres adjacent to the St. Vrain Greenway and includes Fairgrounds Lake, trails, a shelter, outdoor amphitheater, restrooms, native landscaping, demonstration gardens and an apple grove with fruit free for your harvest! Design and construction of the nature area was primarily funded by the Roger and Roberta Jones Foundation. Roger Jones (1915-1995), enjoyed walking along the river with his wife Roberta (1913-1992). Both educators in the St. Vrain Valley School system, the Jones' wanted to contribute an environment for children and adults to visit, learn and enjoy. Roger's Grove was developed as a nature area, arboretum and outdoor learning center. Additional funding came from the Colorado Lottery and Great Outdoors Colorado."
I am rolling out this year's Fourth of July celebration using action on the medium telephoto-zoom. This looks like nebulae many light years away and many millennia ago. It seems a star field exploded in the background. I particularly like the veils slung by bony fingers that happened over the hand-held three second exposure. I got hand-held veils that trailed during hand holding. I do like those hand-held telephoto traces. This EXIF reports 200mm but I used a long zoom range over the reddish explosions happened as I triggered the zoom.

I think the two pieces complimented one another quite well to give this image. Summer 2016.

The clean lines and geometric curves of the Da Lat opera house create an abstract composition. I focused on the play of light and shadow across the structure, simplifying the scene into a study of form and symmetry.
Vista en gran angular de la santabarbara d'una de les torretes triples del creuer HMS Belfast. Aquesta sala, amb un centre giratori conectat a la torreta amb els canons, és des d'on es proporcionen els projectils de 6 polzades per mitjà d'elevadors. La cordita per propulsar-los ve del pis inferior. Un video molt ilustratiu, tot i que d'una torreta encara més gran d'un cuirassat, és aquest:

El HMS Belfast és el més gran supervivent de la Royal Navy que lluità a la Segona Guerra Mundial. Veterà de la batalla del Cap Nord (on ajudà a enfonsar el Scharnhorst) i del desembarc de Normandia, es pot recorrer en detall en el seu moll davant la Torre de Londres.

==============================================
This is the ammo handling level of one of HMS Belfast's gun turrets. Here the projectiles are prepared and hoisted to the guns on the upper levels of the turret. The cordite is hoisted from an even lower level. Here you can see the operation of an even bigger US battleship:

The cruiser HMS Belfast is the largest survivor of WW2's Royal Navy. A veteran of North Cape battle and D-Day, it lays in front of Tower Bridge, perfectly preserved.
A reflection shot of the side of Bath college, taken during a lovely sunny day a few weeks ago. So many angles going on in this shot.
I isolated this architectural corner to create a study in pure form. The converging lines and subtle gradations of light transform a utilitarian structure into an abstract composition of light and space.
Now that I've fully deboxed both the LE 2500 and the Harrods LE 100 Frozen Elsa 17'' Dolls by the Disney Store, here they are in a side by side comparison. Following is a feature by feature comparative review of the two dolls, followed by purchase details.
Comparative Review of Elsa LE 2500 vs LE 100 17'' Dolls
Outfits: LE 2500 Elsa is wearing her Snow Queen outfit, that is similar in design to that of the Harrods LE 100 Elsa doll, but is less detailed and less full. The light blue green satin inner dress is very similar in both dolls, but the Harrods doll has a few more round crystals just below the bodice, and it is longer and wider at the bottom. The front of the bodice is covered in rectangular crystals representing icicles. The skirt has a slit in the front for the legs and has a diminishing density of round clear rhinestones closer to the hemline. The skirt has a dark blue satin lining. The attached over-sized cape (or gown overlay) is made of double layered organza, with dark blue embroidery and jewels. It is shorter, narrower and much less detailed than the Harrods cape. In particular, the icicle and snowflake embroidered patterns with the accompanying jewels are only near the edges of the cape, and there are no jewels in the area between the icicles and the snowflakes. Instead, there is a covering of clear hexagonal glitter. Fortunately, the glitter is glued very securely to the cape is sheds very little. There are also fewer blue jewels in her sheer long sleeves than on the Harrods doll. Her high heeled blue shoes are same snowflake design as the Harrods, except that the color is a plainer blue, without the iridescence or silver paint making it look metallic.
Face: My LE 2500 Elsa has a beautiful angular face with an elfin appearance. She as large blue eyes, small pointy nose, thin deep red lips in a slight closed mouth smile, and rouge on upper cheeks. She has a few freckles on her upper cheeks, in an identical pattern to the Harrods Elsa. Her skin is a very pale purplish pink, that is smooth and dull in appearance. She is slightly paler than the Harrods doll, who has shiny pearly textured skin. The Harrods Elsa also has considerably darker rouge on her cheeks, and her ears are reddened as well, representing her exposure to cold weather.
Hair: My LE 2500 Elsa doll has the same hairdo as the Harrods Elsa. Her light blonde hair is formed into a long braided ponytail. There are long curvy bangs that are combed back and heavily gelled to form a sort of crown over her head. There is a solitary curly bang on the left side of her head. She long curving rooted eyelashes, that are not as curvy or well formed as the Harrods Elsa (or the LE 2500 Anna), but that is just a factory variance. There are two snowflake jeweled ornaments that are sewn to her braid. The Harrods Elsa has a third snowflake of the same design on the side of her head.
Body: The LE 2500 Elsa has fixed angled feet, same as the Harrods, so she looks elegant in her high heels. Other than that, she has the same articulation as the most current Disney Store 17'' Limited Edition Princess dolls. She has ball jointed neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists and hips. Her knees are external hinge joints. She can free stand with the help of her gown, but only with great difficultly, and is very unstable in that pose, the same as with the Harrods doll. She also has an upper torso joint of limited movement side to side and back to front.
Both Elsas are very beautiful dolls, with their unique and exotic faces and hairdos and commanding presence. She has a dramatic outfit that fits her role as the Snow Queen. She is also very movie accurate. The LE 2500 is one of the better LE dolls that Disney Store has produced, and is well worth her price. The Harrods doll has many enhancements (and other differences) from the LE 2500 doll, in her face and skin, her gown, her accessories and her shoes. But those are clearly don't justify four times the cost of the LE 2500 doll, rather it is due to the exclusivity of the release.

Focus stacked image taken in the early morning under natural light. This work is a gift for me, regarding the weather it was made in. Stacking living insects usually requires cool and windless weather. This time it was a warm morning with 25°C! However, the fly was friendly enough and stayed still throgh the stacking sequence.
