The most iconic structure in all of Marken is certainly the so-called Paard van Marken ("Horse of Marken"), a monumental lighthouse that rises from the easternmost point of the peninsula; the current structure dates from 1839. The peculiar name stems from its shape, which consists of a 54-ft. (16m) tower attached to two pyramidal-roofed houses. Since the Paard van Marken is now a private residence, it is closed to the public.

A long exposure at Haycock Point near Pambula on the Sapphire Coast NSW. Interesting to see the currents after using a long exposure. I was down on the rock platform earlier but the tide was coming in and later much of the rock platform would be under water. The height above is not as evident in this photo. After the steps there is a sloping rock formation to walk down, which is okay unless you stumble. Much easier climbing back up! The sea is the Tasman. Lee Big Stopper and Little Stopper used.
With the lack of opportunity to move freely during Covid 19, I decided to take a series of shots of reflections in the local streams, ponds, ditches and a short stretch of the River Thames.
I am currently working on some new processing techniques as well as trying to let go of others all the while still learning new things every day that get trialed into work flows and discarded usually without the viewer noticing any course corrections. Despite what is ongoing in the world I am still trying to be a person that will try to make lemonade out of the shitty lemons thrown at us so will use this time to work on being a better me and also I am hoping to emerge from this with some new skills. I hope that everyone has a great New Year and we all have a better year in 2022!
I took this on Oct 23rd, 2021 with my D850 and Tamron 15-30 f2.8 G2 Lens at 26mm, 0.5s, f8 ISO 64 processed in LR, PS +Topaz ,and DXO

Back from the cottage gentrification project ready for the season and our isolation oasis I hope that you enjoy the continuation of my re-edit visit to the Netherlands from fall 2017 to continue on unabated until arriving in Amsterdam for my final post in the series.
Thanks for all the supportive comments on this Dutch Masters process development and those that just like to have something trying to be a little distracting in their feed other than today’s current events,
my goal is to hopefully trigger a memory or the want of a memory of someplace you would like to be.
As mentioned before my short break, Delft is where we will pick up my reverse chronological order Dutch revisit, captured here is what I thought to be Vermeer’s corner but now upon some reflection realize it is not his view but it is a view of Delft just the same and not a bad one.
Delft is an easy day trip from almost any location in the Netherlands making it an excellent day trip, the core is easily walkable, chock full of historic treasures, wonderful shops, warm cafes and beautiful views and should not be missed.
I took this on Sept 17th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 58mm 1/40s, f/16 ISO 100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO

Revisiting an early morning, springtime trip to Prairie Creek Park. This shot averages 15 successive exposures to get that extra-long exposure look without the excess noise.
Description in English, German and Dutch
English:
During my walk from Murnau to Ohlstadt in Bavaria I walked along the Loisach river. The Loisach is a tributary of the Isar and the Isar is a tributary of the world famous Danube. Some parts of the river have a beautiful blue-green color. I decided to get off the trail to get a closer look at the river. When I got close to the current I was enchanted by the beauty of the water and the green surroundings. I was all alone, because the spot I had chosen is not known by tourists, but it is very beautiful. On the waterfront I decided to take some pictures first and then turn my phone off completely. No distraction for a while. With my pants pulled up I walked barefoot into the clear water and that was very cooling on this sun-drenched warm summer day. Staring at the impressive mountains of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, I then stood in the shallow part of the river and decided to close my eyes and think about nothing for a while. It was another special experience in beautiful Bavaria where I experienced a moment of satisfaction and ultimate peace in one of the most beautiful tributaries of the world. All my beautiful experiences of recent times have been made possible by the 9 euro ticket. Unfortunately, everything comes to an end and August 31 was the last day that the ticket could be used. I used it for three months. Only 27 euros for travelling in thee months. Sweet 9 euro ticket, it was an honor to carry you with me in the summer period. I miss you already, but the memories will last forever in the form of my photos. There will therefore be a lot of pictures here on Flickr of my adventures in Germany.

Bei meiner Wanderung von Murnau nach Ohlstadt in Bayern bin ich an der Loisach entlang gelaufen. Die Loisach ist ein Nebenfluss der Isar und die Isar ist ein Nebenfluss der weltberühmten Donau. Einige Teile des Flusses haben eine schöne blaugrüne Farbe. Ich beschloss, den Weg zu verlassen, um mir den Fluss genauer anzusehen. Als ich mich der Strömung näherte, war ich von der Schönheit des Wassers und der grünen Umgebung verzaubert. Ich war ganz allein, denn der Ort, den ich mir ausgesucht hatte, ist bei Touristen nicht bekannt, aber sehr schön. An der Uferpromenade beschloss ich, erst ein paar Fotos zu machen und dann mein Handy komplett auszuschalten. Keine Ablenkung für eine Weile. Mit hochgezogener Hose ging ich barfuß ins klare Wasser und das war an diesem sonnendurchfluteten warmen Sommertag sehr erfrischend. Mit Blick auf die imposanten Berge von Garmisch-Partenkirchen stand ich dann im seichten Teil des Flusses und beschloss, die Augen zu schließen und eine Weile an nichts zu denken. Es war ein weiteres besonderes Erlebnis im schönen Bayern, wo ich einen Moment der Zufriedenheit und des ultimativen Friedens in einem der schönsten Nebenflüsse der Welt erlebte. All meine schönen Erlebnisse der letzten Zeit wurden durch das 9-Euro-Ticket ermöglicht. Leider geht alles zu Ende und der 31. August war der letzte Tag, an dem das Ticket verwendet werden konnte. Ich habe es drei Monate lang benutzt. Nut 27 euro! Süßes 9-Euro-Ticket, es war mir eine Ehre, dich 3 monaten mitzunehmen. Ich vermisse dich jetzt schon, aber die Erinnerungen werden in Form meiner Fotos für immer bleiben. Daher wird es hier auf Flickr viele Bilder von meinen Abenteuern in Deutschland geben.
Nederlands:
Tijdens mijn wandeling van Murnau naar Ohlstadt in Beieren liep ik langs de Loisach rivier. De Loisach is een zijrivier van de Isar en de Isar is dan weer een zijrivier van de wereldberoemde Donau. Sommige gedeelten van de rivier hebben een prachtige blauw-groene kleur. Ik besloot om van het pad af te gaan om de rivier van dichterbij te kunnen aanschouwen. Toen ik vlakbij de stroming aankwam werd ik betoverd door de schoonheid van het water en de groene omgeving. Ik was helemaal alleen, want het plekje wat ik had uitgekozen is niet bekend bij toeristen, maar wel erg mooi. Aan de waterkant besloot ik om eerst wat foto's te maken en daarna mijn telefoon helemaal uit te zetten. Even geen afleiding. Met mijn broek opgestroopt liep ik met blote voeten het heldere water in en dat was erg verkoelend op deze zonovergoten warme zomerdag. Starend naar de indrukwekkende bergen van Garmisch-Partenkirchen stond ik daarna in het ondiepe gedeelte van de rivier en besloot om vervolgens mijn ogen dicht te doen en even helemaal nergens aan te denken. Het was weer een bijzondere ervaring in het wonderschone Beieren waarbij ik een moment van voldoening en ultieme rust heb ervaren in een van de mooiste zijrivieren van de wereld. Al mijn mooie ervaringen van de afgelopen tijd zijn mede mogelijk gemaakt door het 9 euro ticket. Helaas komt aan alles een einde en was 31 augustus de laatste dag dat het ticket gebruikt kon worden. Drie maanden heb ik er gebruik van gemaakt. Lief 9 euro ticket, het was een eer om je 3 keer bij me te mogen dragen. Ik mis je nu al, maar de herinneringen blijven voor eeuwig bestaan in de vorm van mijn foto's. Er zullen daarom nog een hoop foto's hier op Flickr volgen van mijn avonturen in Duitsland.

The current day Wheeling is soaring over the former NYC on the original Wheeling with 111 cars on the drawbar behind 4 SD40-2's. Both lines are now owned by NS and Oak Harbor has long been a 'classic' railroad location but this perspective is only available from the air. Oak Harbor, OH 3/7/2021
Current
May. Rain has been pounding the Adirondacks for several days, and supersaturated the mountains. Seasonal streams have awakened, runoff and percolation feed the flow, all that water finding it’s lowest level and charging the whole Schroon ecosystem. Some miles below the dam at the lake, the river picks up speed on gradients through boulder fields, now inundated and drowned under the flow. They are immovable, their resistance invisible but for the standing waves throughout the volume. A light mist hovers above the raging current. Standing this close, I can feel the vibration of it’s power, urging my blood pressure higher to match the atmosphere I’m in. Here is spring as allegory to life, the relentless wildness of youth, bursting to race ahead towards that age when you don’t. What I wouldn’t give to truly feel that voltage again, and know the trajectory of where I was headed, instead of treading, spent, looking back at where I’ve come. I stay awhile on the edge of the surge, enjoying the power of the season.
Sheriff Woody (Ooshie)
For Macro Monday - Movie
A bit of a challenge this week. Our children used to have a lot of movie related items but have outgrown them and we had a big clean out earlier this year. Thankfully one of our supermarket chains currently is giving away 'Ooshies' (things that go on the end of a pen/pencil) if you spend a certain amount in store. So I did and got this Sheriff Woody from the movie Toy Story,
He stands 45mm high.
Happy Macro Monday!
Part of the Wind River Canyon (Wyoming), as its rapids work toward the awaking light! Great Trout water with limited access.
Waves and current have kept this section of the St. Lawrence River clear of ice. There's a warming trend now through Christmas, but there's enough snow to ensure a white one.

The current Romanesque and Gothic form of the cathedral, seen today in the Stephansplatz, was largely initiated by Duke Rudolf IV (1339–1365) and stands on the ruins of two earlier churches, the first a parish church consecrated in 1147. The most important religious building in Vienna, St. Stephen's Cathedral, has witnessed many important events in Habsburg and Austrian history and has become one of the city's most recognizable symbols with its multi-colored tile roof. It has 256 stairs from the top to the bottom
Sometimes I just spend to much time in the weeds. There is so much coming at me that I can't focus on one individual task and that everthing start to just appear at once. And just when I think I start to get it organaized, the rain comes...
We are all racist when we turn our back on God.
We say.
I know better than you!
I am better than you!
You don't exist!
I hate you!
I won't listen to you!
IS'NT THAT WHAT WE SAY TO PEOPLE.
I hate you because your black, or white, or green or purple.
I am better than you!
You don't exist!
I know better than you!
the truth is that God had one plan.
God made man and woman.
We don't know if Adam was green purple yellow or orange.
We don't know if Eve had red, black, brown or silver hair.
All we know is that God made man from all of earth's elements and Eve from Adam's rib.
Last time I looked the earth was every color that we could imagine.
Last time I looked at Eve she was part of the earth.
Stop turning away from God. Both turn towards the Creator and there will be no more of these issues. Until then enjoy racism.
