Windmill Bonrepas near Schoonhoven, controlling the water level in two polders. As the thaw is on its way, the ice from the ditches will disappear in the coming days.. It is a sign that the water level can be brought under control of windmills again. That is done by the windmill, which pumps water from one polder to the other, thus controlling two polders.
Conditions on the melting ice can become highly risky then, potentially causing the situation that the icefloor floats on nothing, because the water underneath it has been pumped to another polder by the windmill. When you walk on that ice and you go through it, you will fall deeper under the ice in the water, with the possibility you dissappear under the ice. Very dangerous!
Formerly a beautiful 1920's skylit control room, unfortunately now only half of it left and the skylight is blocked

Control panel for the power generators. there appeared to be a rotary AC DC converter here too. At least that's what i think it was!
Taken at the early stage of the viral epidemic in Qingdao. Since them, that became a habit, part of my daily life now.
This is China~~
Stopped by the remote controlled airfield for short time for the first time in quite a while. A friend of mine was flying a few of the 31 planes he owns. Only got photos of 2 of them while there, the first two red ones and the last six photos here. Fun watching how skillful these pilots are doing aerial maneuvers, takeoffs and landings. I always send any photos I take for them to post on their club site. Sorry for so many photos, just saving to my album. :-)

I took eight photos of this cosplayer. Unfortunately, all except for the very last one was out-of-focus (dang it!). But the last image looked damned good.
I threw many of the post-processing features I had available to me into this one as I wanted controlled chaos going on all around her; matching her mind-set from the end of WandaVision. I used multiple fractal brushes with different "layer style" settings to add outer glows, gradients, color overlays, etc. The background is a seven-pointed star created with Oxidizer. It has been faded to let a bit of original background bleed through adding in some textures and the cosplayer was masked out so that she showed up at 100%.
I used the frequency separation technique to give a smoother yet realistic look to her skin and minimize fly-away hairs on her face.
I think of this photo being possibly a sequel to this picture. In the previous photo the women is swallowed by the chaos of the storm. But this photo shows the hope of controlling the storm. Everyone at some point feels like there life is just a storm of chaos, drowning them in it. This photo shows how at some point you need to take control of the chaos, and use it to empower yourself by learning from it and becoming the better person for it.
When I was thinking about this photo the idea reminded a bit about Wizard of Oz. So keeping that in mind I decided on using this dress, because it reminded me of something Dorthy might wear and it felt appropriate for the shoot.
To take a look at a couple of BTS pictures from this shoot, or to just say hi, visit my Facebook page! I also made a BTS video that follows me step by step during my shooting process, as well as a slow transition of my editing at the end. If you have any questions that you would like me to answer in future videos post them here or below the video.
