[2021/12/09 09:52] William: stand for me?
[2021/12/09 09:53] Mara Telling: sure ... give me 5 minutes, ok?
it was a 2 hour session... and it was like being inside a real-time piece of art. lights and colors changin' ... glow ... letters appearing ... a metal sphere ... artful "accidents" ... almost philosophical
by slightly moving the mouse ... everything changed .. things and moods appearing/disappearing. magic
for a long time we didn't speak at all. I was just watching and zooming and being in awe.
from time to time he said things like: "see that?"
and: "phototools > choose "Midnight" .... then DoF/Glow tab .. set the strength of glow to zero" ...
and everything changed again.
learning ... changing points of view... evolving ...
these pics are unedited (just cropped). what you see is what I saw... what you see is what I was allowed to experience
it's all from the firestorm viewer and a genius' creative soul
William .... *smile* ... thank you!!
Info: a couple of years ago William published some tutorials on SL photography on Youtube. since the viewer changed you might have to adapt some things .. but to me it's a constant source of knowledge and inspiration. you might wanna check out William's channel
La hormiga atómica. Es increíble la fuerza y capacidad de trabajo en grupo que tienen las hormigas. Los seres humanos tenemos mucho que aprender de estos pequeños insectos.

Phew! That was exhausting. I'm never this gabby with descriptions. 。◕‿◕。
Made him a long time ago... think I started on him back when the first photo of the atom suit for arrow was revield. I've had him done a long long time before I even got flickr but I really think he keeps up and I'm really happy with this figure.
Panopticon at Wycoller, Wycoller Country Park, Lancashire. A viewing point and shelter. Panopticon: "a structure, space or device providing a comprehensive or panoramic view"
RIBA award winner 2003, by Peter Meacock. Ferro-cement with a coating of metal-based bronze paint.
Sadly, there was originally a polished steel sphere within Atom that reflected the entering light, but this was stolen in 2012, leaving just a stump.
Wycoller, Lancashire
This is one of five panopticons’ scattered across East Lancashire.
It was the winner of an international competition for panopticons organised in 2003
Pendle's Panopticon, 'The Atom', rests on the hillside above Wycoller village.
Constructed in ferro-cement with a surface coating of metal-based paint, it is both a striking contemporary viewing point and shelter from which to enjoy Pendle's glorious scenery, and an intriguing and beautiful object which can be viewed from afar.
From inside, its circular viewing spaces frame spectacular views of the surrounding countryside’
Wat Pho, Bangkok, Thailand
"Why I came here, I know not; where I shall go it is useless to inquire - in the midst of myriads of the living and the dead worlds, stars, systems, infinity, why should I be anxious about an atom?"
Lord Byron
"Wat Pho (Thai: วัดโพธิ์ (...) is a Buddhist temple complex in the Phra Nakhon District, Bangkok, Thailand.(...) The temple is first on the list of six temples in Thailand classed as the highest grade of the first-class royal temples. (...) The temple complex houses the largest collection of Buddha images in Thailand, including a 46 m long reclining Buddha. The temple is considered the earliest centre for public education in Thailand, and the marble illustrations and inscriptions placed in the temple for public instructions has been recognised by UNESCO in its Memory of the World Programme. It houses a school of Thai medicine, and is also known as the birthplace of traditional Thai massage which is still taught and practiced at the temple." Wikipedia

Une photo de mes archives avec un traitement pour l'occasion!
An older one from the archives with a bit of editing!
My biggest thanks to a very special friend of mine Lou Santani for making this absolutely stunning picture.
Jokusarlon è un posto pazzesco, siamo riusciti a raggiungerlo dopo aver tentato di visitarlo anche il giorno precedente, ma c'era troppa pioggia e nebbia e ci siamo passati accanto senza vederlo :-S.
Quando arrivi la bellezza di questo posto ti mozza il fiato.
È una laguna ghiacciata piena di iceberg anche molto grandi che si staccano man mano dal ghiacciaio vatnakjokull e rimangono lì a galleggiare anche 15 anni, sciogliendosi e righiacciandosi, fondendosi assieme ad altri iceberg, prima di riuscire poi lentamente a raggiungere il mare o a sciogliersi completamente.
Quando spunta un po' di sole tutto diventa davvero magico, i ghiacci riflettono un azzurro intensissimo, nonostante le striature nere date dalla sabbia lavica.
Mi sono innamorata di questo posto, soprattutto di questi due pezzi di ghiaccio che si sono sciolti così, prendendo questa forma... sembravano troppo una mamma con il suo vitellino visti da questa angolazione.
Bello fare il "gioco della forma delle nuvole", non solo con le nuvole :-)
