I’m thrilled to share this image with you! In my latest video, I hinted at capturing a portfolio-worthy shot during my recent adventure to Crystal Crescent Beach, and here it is, a moment I’ve dreamed of photographing almost since I first picked up a camera.
I always thought I’d need massive waves to create an image like this, but I was wrong (though I still think it might be easier with bigger waves). What inspired me to try shooting waves that morning was the way the wind caught the spray, blowing it back into the ocean and creating a mesmerizing effect. I capture this effect better in my next video, but that spray gave the scene the atmosphere I was chasing.
To achieve this shot, I slowed the shutter down by stopping down the aperture, creating the dreamy motion I envisioned. From there, it was all about timing and capturing that perfect moment, which sometimes means taking a lot of shots.
This was taken at 600mm with a 1/8-second shutter speed while panning with the wave, a technique that added a sense of flow to the image.
I’d love to hear your thoughts, was waiting nearly 8 years for this shot worth it?
The was a chilly wind blowing up here at the Rowena Crest viewpoint next to the Columbia River. I got one cold hand for sure- the one with a tight grip on the tripod as I had it stood on a wall overlooking this drop. Tried really hard to capture car light trails but there was just not enough traffic on this quiet road.
This is how he looks when he smooths that crest down. A bit goofy.

I used to work in the Hudson Valley, and the best part was seeing the peaks lit up pink on my commute. The worst part was not being able to pull over and get a shot!
Today, since I have the day off work, and since it just snowed, I thought I'd drive down and show everyone what my commute used to look like.
The final shot in Scotland of a fabulous few days sees 37607 and 37218 breast the summit in the Pass of Druimochter heading for home on Easter Monday. A first for me this, a truly wonderful spectacle, with the use of the pole allowing the summit board to be visible in the background.

The sun rises over the eastern crest of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. A storm system snows on the ridge line and buries the tallest peaks, such as Lone Pine Peak (12,949') and the apex, Mount Whitney (14,508'). Mount Whitney would be visible above the valley just to the left of the road that leads up to Whitney Portal. In the foreground huge granite boulders foreshadow the towering rock piles of the Alabama Hills just behind the photographer. To the east clouds filter the sun's light into a narrow band that slices across the range.
The idea was to upgrade the 75292 to the UCS level while keeping as much elements as possible.

When I started this MOC a long time ago I was sure that we would never get a UCS razor Crest from LEGO ...
another image from exactly a year ago today, when the snow-wave was big and cresting — we’re back to freezing today, and should get snow again next week…
I love photographing the goldcrests that I have come across on my local lockdown walk. I have been fortunate to get a number of decent close up shots considering how quickly they dart about. This set however is quite special. The male was literally chasing the female in and out of the trees and bushes. His crest was raised and quite orange compared to normal, all part of the courting display which I was fortunate enough to witness for the first time...
A relic from the battles fought around the small French village of Fromelles during WWI. I think the helmet crest is for a Bavarian regiment.It is on display at the excellent Battle of Fromelles Museum after laying buried for almost a century.
PW 4302 leads CORP 508 over the last challenge before arriving in Eugene, Oregon - Divide Hill south of Cottage Grove. A water car is behind the last motor to make sure the dry summer brush does not catch fire.
It's 35 degrees. The wind is blowing. Rain and ice are pelting the ground. Only thing that would bring anyone out in those conditions is a steam engine. Especially if that engine is the famed Big Boy. Here, at the crest of Utah's Wasatch Range, the Big Boy puts on an amazing show for the 500 plus spectators enjoying the show, and braving the elements. The train is approaching the old station of Wahsatch (yes, that's the actual spelling).
CN 2950 leads a mixed freight train out of Tunnel Yard and on the downslope of a 2% gradient. The train will quickly speed up to around 60 mph as it reaches the St. Clair River Tunnel, bound for somewhere in Canada.

Surfer dude riding the crest off Long Beach with Cape Ann Light in the background. Hurricane Bill helped push the waves on Long Beach in Rockport to very un-Massachusetts like heights (4'-7') on Saturday (when these were shot). The surfers came out in droves. Because of the high waves and undertow, the beach closed for swimming for a while on Saturday afternoon, and many MA beaches were closed on Sunday.
featured on Universal Hub ( thanks @agaffin3 !) and made Explore (thanks everyone!)
As seen climbing the Big Collin near Ballyclare. This guy just zipped up the hill at a pace I would reckon most folk could hardly sustain on the flat.
Tribute to The Razor Crest.
5 months, 5k pieces, 3 kilos and far more work than I expected to be honest.
Features 3-seat cockpit, interior with carbonite blocks and gun cabinet, 3 opening doors, 3 additional hatches for access and internal lightning. Instructions are in progress - given how large the model is, I wanted to show the MOC during airing of The Mandalorian, and it will take probably about 2 months from now on to finish everything off.
Also considering that this is a stage which can still be slightly updated, if there is something you'd like to see - please tell me! It might be possible!
Instructions are not done yet, but you can pre-order them for reduced price at
