Icebergs are the perfect symbol of life. Only a small portion of who we are is visible to the world, while the vast majority remains hidden and undiscovered.

A winter storm has moved out of the area, leaving behind a brilliant, but frigid afternoon. Here we caught up to Wisconsin & Southern's T4R as they worked through Williams and toward Janesville.

MT7 4+2+4+2+450ml 45 secs,
Lead acetate toner about 1% sol.15 secs.
The Iron toner starts in the lights, after 20 secs the shadows are still red, but a longer time is necessary in order to get a little more than the desired density. The following lightly alkaline Lead solution acts as a slicer, it removes the cyan colour from the shades and turns the lights to a brighter and more bluish tone.
Better known as Blue Primulas,
Very floriferous and vigorous, Primula 'Belarina Cobalt Blue' is a short-lived, semi-evergreen perennial forming a rosette of bright green leaves, topped with sturdy stems bearing large, fragrant, rich blue, double flowers...
"The deeper the blue becomes, the more strongly it calls man towards the infinite, awakening in him a desire for the pure and, finally, for the supernatural... "
- Wassily Kandinsky
“If you see a tree as blue, then make it blue.”
- Paul Gauguin

Splendid Fairy-wren
Scientific Name: Malurus splendens
Description: The breeding plumage of the male is predominantly blue, varying from cobalt-blue in the east of its range to violet-blue in the west.It has black bands at the base of the tail (absent in the violet-blue birds), across the breast and from the beak, through the eyes to join a band across the back of its neck. Its crown and cheek patches are paler blue. Wings and long tail are brown with a blue wash. His beak is black and his legs and feet are brown-grey. In non-breeding plumage, called eclipse, he is very similar to the female, being pale brown above and buff to white underneath although he retains the blue wash on wings and tail. The female does not have the blue wash on her wings, but does have a reddish-tan line from beak to eye that extends into a ring around her eye. Her beak is reddish-tan.
Similar species: The male in breeding plumage is quite distinct but in eclipse he is similar to the males of other fairy-wrens in eclipse. A faint wash of blue on male wings during eclipse distinguishes this species from others. The female is similar to females of other fairy-wren species, but has a bluer tail than most.
Distribution: These birds are widely distributed across Australia in two areas. One area is from about Shark Bay south through WA, through SA except the coast to about the Flinders Ranges and the southern and central parts of NT. The eastern area include SA from the Flinders Ranges, the far north-western tip of Vic, NSW east to about Moree and Balranald and south central Qld.
Habitat: These birds live in arid to semi-arid areas, in mostly dense shrublands or woodlands of acacia, and mallee eucalypt with dense shrubs.
Seasonal movements: These birds are mostly sedentary, defending a territory all year, but the younger females may disperse to another territory. In some areas they are semi-nomadic, depending on local conditions.
Feeding: Like most of the fairy-wrens, Splendid Fairy-wrens eat mostly insects and forage on both the ground and in shrubs. They live in groups which forage together.
Breeding: The Splendid Fairy-wren female builds an oval domed nest of dry grass, strips of bark and rootlets, with an entrance two thirds of the way up one side. The female is the only member of the group to incubate the eggs, but all members of the group feed the chicks.
Calls: A rapid series of slightly metallic, high-pitched pips that blend into an "undulating" call.
Minimum Size: 12cm
Maximum Size: 14cm
Average size: 13cm
Average weight: 9g
Breeding season: mostly September-December, but can extend from August to April
Clutch Size: 2 to 4, mostly 3
Incubation: 15 days
Nestling Period: 11 days

This is Lake Salimu(赛里木湖), which is called "last drop of tear from atlantic", locates in Xinjiang, China. you can see Tianshan mountain with belt cloud around. This lake is much more beautiful than i can show it on photo. The first glance shocked me.
While in Whistler recently, I saw this row of rental e-bikes. And as I had my Oreston lens on my camera, I thought I could get lots of bike bokeh with the lens wide open. Shot at f1.8.
