These paper wasps have build a nest larger than a human head on a smoke bush near the road at the front of our property. It's amazing and they are furiously continuing to build.

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. An irresistible capture with the collection of curves and lines in the architecture and girl. I love that this looks almost posed yet is completely candid. I'm certain she knew that I was capturing this but she didn't move or change her expression or posture at all, which I am very glad about. Enjoy!

Neoclassical Symi was created between 1860 and 1910, all of this is the result of a mere 50-year period, but things started to go downhill with the arrival of the Italians.

An HDR composition
Location: Ter Apel - at the Bosbeek - the Netherlands.
Exposure: 3 brackets of -2 Ev, +/-0 Ev and +2 Ev at f/8, mounted on a Manfrotto 190.
Description: During the grubbing of the so-called "Bourtangermoor" - in the Northern provinces Groningen and Drenthe - the whole old peat-mouth scheme was nearly replaced by straight canals. At the end of the previous century the convalescence of several old peat-flows - such as the Runde and the Ruiten Aa - started to develop.
This picture was taken at the Bosbeek (forest-branch), which has been dug in 2000. This new piece of water-plan connects the Runde with the Ruiten Aa (canals).
Due to house construction it was no longer possible to maintain the original flow of streaming water from the bayou. When the complete route has been gradually recovered, peat-water from the highmoor-reservoir Bargerveen will flow to sea once again.
Technique: HDR Tone Mapping & PS color and contrast enhancements.
Two layer copies with corresponding masks used for selective sharpening and sensor junk removal. A custom double-s curve for overall contrast. A selective Levels layer to brighten the trees in the background a bit. Another custom one-point curve layer for a second contrast adjustment throughout the scene.
The warm subdued color toning was inspired by 17th century paintings, those by William Blake in particular. The end-result was achieved by using three adjustment layers: Photo Filter (orange), Hue/Saturation and Selective Color.
A blueprint of real world grain - Agfa Scala 200x - was sampled and applied as well as a soft Gaussian Blur for the overall effect as a final touch.

VIA Rail Canada's flagship train "The Canadian" is seen rolling across the historic Seguin River Trestle in beautiful Parry Sound, Ontario. The leader, no. 6416, is an F40PH-2 decked out in the funky Canada 150 scheme. On this gloomy morning in October, the Canadian was running about 5.5 hours late, which allowed for some fairly uncommon photos of it on the trestle in daylight.

I got her awhile before PUDDLE, but I was too busy to do much more than debox her. I also didn't get around to trying out the photo backdrops that I got from Tiny Frock Shop: tinyfrockshop.com/collections/fashion-doll-diy-photograph...
