Long exposure at Fairmount Park, Riverside CA

Morant's Curve, Banff National Park, The Canadian Rockies

instagram.com/melvinnicholsonphotography

 

I took this long exposure shot of the Canadian Pacific Railway Train at Morant's Curve on Sunday morning during an extreme cold spell in the Rockies. I decided to shoot this slow shutter image of the Canadian Pacific Railway Train as I thought it looked interesting when set against some stunning scenery. The red and green double-stacked carriages make for a really interesting trail.

It's hard to resist taking photos at the Land Park duck pond as there are 100s of blooming lotus blossoms. They're particularly lovely in the soft early morning light

 

Day two of using a tripod and using the camera's mirror lock-up feature. What a difference it makes!

Quanto mi manca la voce dell'acqua in questi giorni di magone.

 

Family lexicon

I miss the voice of water very much in these days of captivity and nostalgia.

The duck poind in Land Park in Sacramento, California is lush with lotus blossoms.

 

I did something I almost never have done which was to finally use the Benro tripod and geared tripod head I bought about a year or so ago. And I used the mirror lock-up feature on the D750 .

Taken this morning during a good wander around a local reservoir.

Didn't want to go to far due to not understanding rules fully and then constantly changing.

During lockdown and not being in work for a few months have been trying to improve my knowledge of post processing, as its not something I do much of, nor enjoy.

This is first attempt at new processes.

Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London built between 1886 and 1894. The bridge crosses the River Thames close to the Tower of London and has become an iconic symbol of London. Because of this, Tower Bridge is sometimes confused with London Bridge, situated some 0.5 mi (0.80 km) upstream. Tower Bridge is one of five London bridges now owned and maintained by the Bridge House Estates, a charitable trust overseen by the City of London Corporation. It is the only one of the Trust's bridges not to connect the City of London directly to the Southwark bank, as its northern landfall is in Tower Hamlets.

Meols lies on the Wirral Peninsula, between Hoylake and Wallasey, just off the A553.

At low tide the small stretch of shingle beach here becomes a wide expanse of sand and mudflats.

Sand buggying and horse riding are popular here, and in the winter months this can be a good place to go birdwatching.

There are dozens of boats that at low tide rest on the sand, or in channel of water that have been left.

An Old Barn In Western Kentucky

The magnificent natural limestone arch was formed when the power of the waves eroded the rock and forged a hole through the middle. The name Durdle is derived from an old English word ‘thirl’, which means to pierce, bore or drill

Ok the alarm went off at 4am today in a bid to catch a spectacle that only happens two weeks in the year and in December. Down on the beach at 6am in pitch black and huge waves(not the best idea I know) under crystal clear, star Leiden skies. Eagerly awaiting sunrise and the sunburst through the key hole and to have a cloud bank roll in. All in all an exhausting 8 hours of climbing and walking and photographing, well thoroughly enjoyable. All led by Professional land scape photographer Simon Garrett. This was my final pano of the event but more to follow once I have sorted the hundreds taken

Sunset at Elgol Beach, our first visit back to Scotland since January 2020, I'd been wanting to take this shot for a while now and last week gave me the opportunity, this image was actually shot from the car park, my right ankle had been playing up for a day or so and I didn't fancy risking the walk over the rocky beach, as it turned out I actually broke my right ankle later in the week whilst visiting Neist Point, to help bring out the definition in the sky I used a V5 pro holder, Landscape CPL and a 0.6 stop grad.

 

Taken a few days ago, during a fantastic but very misty sunrise at Crime Lake.

This location is within 20 minutes of where I live, and somewhere that I visit regular ish inorder to try to capture a sunrise.

Crime Lake is halfway between Woodhouses and the Visitors' Centre and forms part of the Daisy Country Park.

It resulted from canal works at the time of construction in 1794 .

As built, the canal severed the course of a brook and a culvert was made below the canal to accommodate this. A landslip blocked this and the waters were impounded on the offside of the canal.

The new lake and canal became one and the lake was officially known as Crime Bank Reservoir, but it is far better known by its later name of Crime Lake.

The name 'Crime' may have come from a local word for "meadow" or a local name for a particular meadow, rather than anything untoward

St Mary’s Lighthouse, Newcastle

The 5 Sisters of Kintail, a 6 shot panorama of this stunning location, this was taken at the view point halfway up the old military road that leads from Ratagan near Sheil Bridge to Glenelg,

Looking for mist and or cloud inversion but alas no.

Went up to try to capture this lighthouse with Stephen Price a few weeks ago, and have a play with new camera.

Plover Scar is also know as Abbey lighthouse

The lighthouse was built in 1847, as the lower light of a pair of leading lights, and is therefore also called the front or Low Light.

The rear or High Light, known as Cockersand Lighthouse, once stood next to the Abbey Lighthouse cottage on Slack Lane.

It was a square wooden tower supported by angled wooden struts. The leading lights helped ships navigate into the Lune estuary, to reach Glasson Dock and then onwards via the Lancaster Canal to the port of Lancaster, with Plover Scar marking the rocky outcrop at the edge of the deep water channel into the estuary.

Both lighthouses were equipped with a pair of paraffin lamps mounted in parabolic reflectors, each displaying fixed light seawards.

In the early 1950s electric lamps replaced the oil lanterns; at the same time the wooden High Light was replaced by a metal framework tower. By the end of the decade the lights were fully automated; the High Light was deactivated some time after 1985 but Plover Scar remains

Taken approx 30 minutes before actual sunrise.

The light has started to show, and a bright streak started to show its face.

The reservoir scheme in the Greenfield Valley and Chew Valley by the Ashton-Under-Lyne, Stalybridge and Dukinfield Waterworks Joint Committee commenced in 1870. The scheme was completed with Dovestone Reservoir in 1968 to collect water from the surrounding moorland.

The main contractor was A.E. Farr (Civil Engineers) of Westbury, Wiltshire. Its construction was opposed by local mill owners, who claimed that damming the river would cut off their water supply.

Benro Tripod.

Taken this morning at Poynton Pool.

Fog, Mist & A Bit Of Snow.

Poynton Park is situated just a few minutes walk from the centre of Poynton village. It is a valuable amenity with its pool, ancient trees and wildlife. The Park covers 21 hectares including the pool.

 

A surfaced circular path takes you from the car park at South Park Drive, alongside the pool, the lime avenue and through the grassland. There is also a linear public footpath from the car park at Anglesey Drive, which takes you alongside the western edge of the pool.

This is "stormy safety beach". This one is a shot I took on the way home from the new location I found with the deconstructed pier... which I will upload in the next few days. I had to stop here because iv only had luck at this spot once or twice. I drove past and know one was at this pier.. it usually has fisherman or other people walking up and down the pier. but saying this I set up and was trying to get this long exposure panorama. It was difficult to get it with storm fronts coming past every few minutes and then a rude lady that when I had three four shots at around 130sec each she walks up and goes "i want to get past".. so I moved my tripod and gear so she could walk 10 metres up the pier look over the edge and walk straight back of the pier... thanks for ruining 10 minutes of my l.e images...

in the end I managed to get all my shots off just before a big storm front swept in.

thanks for viewing

The Cenarth Falls is a cascade of waterfalls just upstream of the road bridge in the village of Cenarth in Ceredigion, bordering Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire, Wales

Taken a few weeks ago with the beautiful Spring light. In my garden

Taken yesterday on a very enjoyable wander around NT Dunham Massey.

 

Dunham Massey is an Elizabethan house which was extensively remodelled by John Norris in 1732-40 for the 2nd Earl of Warrington.

On the 2nd Earl’s death in 1758 the house passed through marriage to the Earls of Stamford.

In 1789 the entrance front was remodelled by John Hope of Liverpool, and then again in 1905 by Compton Hall who created a neo-Caroline façade loosely based on Sudbury in Derbyshire. Hall was also commissioned to design Dunham’s sumptuous Edwardian interiors.

Much to Hall's annoyance, much of the interior decoration was carried out by Perry Macquoid, an interior designer and furniture historian who was married to Lady Stamford’s cousin.

The 10th Earl, who did a great deal to preserve the estate from development in the mid-20th century, left Dunham to the National Trust in 1976 – one of the most generous gifts in the Trust’s history.

 

First outing with my new Benro Rhino CF Tripod.

Strumble Head Lighthouse stands on Ynys Meicel, also known as Strumble Head, a rocky island at the northwest corner of Pencaer area, five miles west of the town of Fishguard, in northern Pembrokeshire, Wales.

 

Strumble Head Lighthouse was built by Trinity House in 1908, marking the dangerous stretch of coast for vessels between Ireland and Wales
