Time after time
Alone in the city of whirling blossoms
Those petals fly in the whirling wind
The miracle of meeting you
In a city where the wind whispered through
The hanamidou tells of the end of spring
One petal from this misty flower.
Time After Time (花舞う街で) // In the Street of Dancing Flowers — Mai Kuraki

Good things come to those who BELIEVE, better things come to those who are PATIENT, & the best things come to those who NEVER GIVE UP!
My outlook to my inner compassion & outer tolerance, can easily make a new world a better world, this is my experience in becoming a Light Chaser & a Chasing Light family. My first step to my new, old world in a better version I should say.
Practice, practice & more practice, to make it perfect, I promise my self to never give up, no one can stop me but myself, God has given me so many talents and I would like to share it to you all.
"Landscape Photography is not for the lazy, it does not reward excuses" CL Motto
My first experience to see the aurora borealis, amazing! My husband acccompany me for the night, I want him to see the spontaneous life of a photographer, where you have to be ready in a battle. Gears ready, set ups, message comes & you have to go & run :-)
Run to succeed in the outer world, become to proceed in the inner world, even in the abysmal abyss, hope knows no fear, trust God and BELIEVE.
This is the first step of my journey and it will be miles & miles to go, join me in my walk!
Thank you to the master of Landscape Photography Instructor: Mr. Edwin Martinez

We tend to celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied ad multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.
We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.
“A concise poem about our work as stated elow
A place without being
a thought without thinking
creatively, two dimensions
suspended animation
possibly a perfect imitation
of what was then to see.
A frozen memory in synthetic colour
or black and white instead,
fantasy dreams in magazines
become imbedded inside my head.
Artistic views
surrealistic hues,
a photographer’s instinctive eye:
for he does as he pleases
up to that point he releases,
then develops a visual high.

Before people start to mention Trent Parke, yes of course i know and i've seen and i admire what he does. And probably i would not see this if i did not know his famous pictures. But this one is more about the colour for me.
26 March 2014: Took some of our guests to Abisko for 2 nights to get away from the bad weather around Tromsø and was rewarded with this beautiful, colorful display!
“Light makes photography. Embrace light. Admire it. Love it. But above all, know light. Know it for all you are worth, and you will know the key to photography.” ~ George Eastman

We all know that light is the key to photography. It is always about the light. I am always 'chasing it down' ... but I don't think I know it for all its worth yet! That is a good thing because that means the search is still on!!
For this image, I bracketed the shot ... really detested two of the images [delete delete] and picked the underexposed image [because the areas with light interested me the most]. My favorite Photoshop plugin: Nik's Viveza. I love the 'localized editing' approach to image editing. By the time I finished sliding, this is what I ended up with [SOOC in Comments].
I started out with an inspirational quote and I'll end with this one:
There are 3 key things for good photography: the camera, lighting, and... photoshop ~ Tyra Banks
That gave me a good laugh on this early Sliders Sunday morning!! I thought my fellow sliders would agree!
~
Happy Sliders Sunday Folks!

We are passionate about bringing a relaxed approach while creating beautiful, natural and vibrant images.
You are my broken someday.
The one lost in the seams of my notebook, and the one that slipped through my hands like sand from a beach I've never visited nor have my fingers even touched.
You are my every "maybe" that will never come to pass, wrapped up in the sighs that comprise this one word that has come to mean "never."
Chase that light, lean on me
Face that fight, lean on me
Catch your fall, lean on me
End it all, lean on me...

DEPICTIONS: A tale of PORTRAITS
Before my marriage to landscape, I was a disciple of portraits.
I missed shooting portraits.
That is why I would like to share some of my collection of portraits taken during a trip with Manny Librodo in Pagsanjan.
I wanted to rekindle my love for portraits and here are some of my work...
All the fields were "just around the corner"… but somehow I still ended up walking like I was chasing lost Wi-Fi 🌾📵
Planning like a heist, waiting like for concert tickets, and nature still did her own thing ️
But when the light finally hit just right — I forgot I was only supposed to be out for a minute 😅
Took a trip to Yosemite on a whim. This was my first trip here and I pulled an all-nighter with a friend. Worth it for this gorgeous morning light.
We arrived at 11:00 PM. There are so many riders, that we are released in waves. We were in the fourth wave (orange), so we had to wait until 1:30!! AAARGHH! We just wanted to get ridin'!! We rode until the sun came up (frustratingly slow at times due to the density of the 'pack' ... it was humid with nary a breeze) ... but we still had a blast. Jackie's sense of humor is always a bonus!!
Riding through the hoods (Chinatown, Greektown, etc.) is always a rich cultural experience. You'd be amazed (or not) at how many people were out. Folks were pouring out of the bars, drunk ... and cheering us on and high-fiving us ... all of this at 3:00 in the morning!! The City was Alive! Or the City Never Sleeps!
The sunrise wasn't as spectacular as we hoped, in fact we didn't even see the sun till it came up over the clouds. We waited for that (so I could get my photo) ... and then flew out of the city and straight to our beds. In all total, I was up for 28 hours straight!!
I loved the barren trees along the lakeshore at this location, remnants of the 1988 forest fire. Such desolate beauty ...
The sliding here is from Pro HDR, an iPhone App ... with a touch of vintage tossed in. Still wading through all my trip photos ...
HSS!! Hope everyone is having an awesome Sunday!
Like everyone else, my thoughts have been on 9/11 this past week. I will never forget where i was and exactly what I was doing when I heard the first reports. Thinking of it right now gives me the chills.
On that day a nation was devastated.
Today, with the dedication of the 9/11 Memorial, a nation will come together on the 10th Anniversary to remember the victims and honor the courage of those who risked their lives to save others.
I did a lot of sliding to bring the light & color out of the shadows on this beautiful morning at sunrise. I spent a lot of time on this bench in solitude ... the only sounds the lapping of water, the cry of gulls and insects buzzing in the reeds ... contemplating life ... and now thinking how fortunate I am to be able to do this ... the freedom ... what freedom costs ... and how deeply thankful I am for all of it.
~
A dedication in honor of the lives lost on that fateful day ... to remind myself to 'never forget.'
