Sunset Crater Volano National Monument, Arizona
The moon and the Milky Way typically do not make happy photographic partners. But here I managed to capture both in a seconds-long window of opportunity before the moon rose higher and completely washed out the Center of Galaxy. It was a tricky shot, difficult to capture enough light from the stars yet avoid overexposure from the moon. And the light pollution from nearby Flagstaff made it even more challenging. I credit PhotoPills for enabling some solid planning for the photography here.
Sunset Crater is an incredible volcanic landscape, with vast fields of cinders and basalt lava flows that killed all life around for 900 square miles, one thousand years ago. There's ponderosa pine and juniper trees here, but not much life otherwise, and as a result it is stunningly quiet at night.
Nothing, and I mean nothing, made a sound that night.
This national monument is rated a Dark Sky Park. A 3-minute exposure long before moonrise did not bring out any details of the landscape. Only the silhouette of Sunset Crater against the stars provided any hint of the cinder cone's existence.
In near complete darkness, and in complete silence, the mystery of the moon and Milky Way made for a truly majestic experience.
Single long exposure processed in Capture One Pro.

The Bearded Guy: Punishment Backdrop
Putting precious moments on a chip or a disk and forgetting about them until years later
At least - hopefully they aren't hidden forever....
"Oh, do you remember
How young we were
How happy we were
I was so in love with you"
Good thing we can forget the roughest times, but we do learn from them, more than we do from the good times
"Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."
Pablo Picasso
A rainy day and watercolors....the perfect combination. What bliss!
The grevillea bush, which my graceful model chose, was located in a place that allowed for some unconventional captures.

Someone has captured what it is that you have guarded for so long and you cannot do anything about it. Inspired by the "Captured Heart Brooch" by Chop Zuey Couture Jewellry.

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Previously unpublished archive shot from February 2014 and captured with my old Canon 400D early in my Street photography journey.
I love the eye contact in this one and want to wish Flickr a very Happy 20th Anniversary. There are some awesome images in the Explore Take-over today including one from an old street photographer friend here on Flickr who passed away a few years ago. He would have been thrilled to get an Explore on such an occasion.
I wish you all a wonderful weekend of photography my Flickr friends. Stay safe, keep the shutters clicking and keep sharing your wonderful photographs. Enjoy.

The nature reserve is very popular among photographers, especially at this time of year. Most of them seem to be more patient than I am. I saw this guy when I arrived in the morning and when I came by the same spot about one hour later he was still there. I'm still wondering what he was waiting for. The perfect light, a duck in the perfect position .... ?
happy roid week 2013!

This is an old Bascule Light.
"In 1705 the Danish postal service established a bascule light on the island of Bågø in the Little Belt on the mail route Assens-Årøsund." (wikipedia)
My photo is showing a replica light built at Verdens Ende, Norway.
It is located on the southernmost tip of Tjøme, an island on the west side of the entrance to Oslofjord.
