Same clematis, but shot with my 16mm lens instead of a zoom. The 16mm1.4 has the benefit of a super-close focusing distance, but I had to stick the camera and my hand way into the rose bush to get close enough. The bokeh is nice, and it captured the shadows and dappled light well, but the other two shots were more dramatically lit..-- May 25, 2020
On a morning walk in the thick and busy forests of CNY, I usually struggle to find something worthy of capturing with a wide angle lens, but the dappled morning light through the canopy never fails to offer wonderful contrast ... even if only for a few moments.
Another cemetery location, this time London Tower Hamlets, one of the Victorian Magnificent Seven graveyards. Unlike Highgate, Kensal Green or Brompton most of Tower Hamlets is in the true grasp of natures reclamation.
This is a photograph I took last summer of sunlight and willow reflections in a stream close to where I live. The scene and the colours made me think of the paintings on Chinese and Japanese fans, so I rounded the corners. in imitation.
Textures:
Poor Freckles, the dog up the back. She really wants to 'play' with our cat...
Making the most of dappled light, it's tricky to work with!
Taken with the zoom to exploit the compression effect. I really should use it more in landscapes. Another end of day shot & a bit different for me. Went home happy.
No textures, no filters used.
Thanks for passing by.
An unexpected snow storm completely changed Zion Nation Park and made it a winter wonderland. This image captures the famous Three Patriarches after the stormy weather. The dappled light and soft clouds between the rocks make the landscape extra dramatic.
A little experiment in shooting dappled light in the 665 nanometer infrared spectrum. City Creek park -- Salt Lake City, Utah.
This was one of those rare moments where it felt like
the woods was watching me back.
Have a lovely evening..
On the western side of Thirlmere in England's Cumbrian Lake District is a narrow winding road along the length of the lake. Several parking places give access to woodland walks to the shore of the lake. This bridge is on one such walk near the southern end of the lake, crossing a small but torrential stream tumbling down the hillside. It's the sort of bridge that invites you to cross it - just to see where it leads!
Our moment-to-moment happiness is largely determined by our outlook. In fact, whether we are feeling happy or unhappy at any given moment often has very little to do with our absolute conditions but, rather it is a function of how we perceive our situation, how satisfied we are with what we have ~ Dalai Lama
Nothing competes with the beauty of a rough mountain. I hope you enjoy this one as much as i did being there.

I was fortunate to get some nice dappled light rolling through on my visit to Bryce Canyon early this year. Very little processing went into this one, the light did all the work here. Although it was already late march it was still pretty darn cold even by my standards. I am sure a lot had to do with the howling wind. Still plenty mounds of snow and patches of ice around the high points. Definitely a beautiful must see location in the desert southwest.
The historic Grosse Point Light is located in Evanston, Illinois. Following several shipping disasters near Evanston, residents successfully lobbied the federal government for a lighthouse. Construction was completed in 1873. The lighthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 8, 1976. On 20 January 1999, the lighthouse was designated a National Historic Landmark. It is maintained under the jurisdiction of the Evanston Lighthouse Park District, an independent taxing authority.
The site of the Grosse Point Lighthouse is the purported site where Father Jacques Marquette landed in 1674 during his trip down the west side of Lake Michigan to visit various Illinois Native American tribes. This tale is largely anecdotal as there is no real historical proof that this ever occurred.
We visited Villecroze yesterday morning for Bob's first visit to the vet. Afterwards we had a coffee in this beautiful square, just right of the photo. Some local men were playing pétanque. I took a photo of this same square in the winter when the trees were bare. How different it looks in the summer!
This Saturday afternoon in Summer was very pleasant. A large group of people had gathered to engage in some exercises under the shade of some of the oldest planted trees in Australia - the oldest going back to 1820 when the City Park was founded. The dappled light of the sun left its mark on the grass.
An early Fall photo,taken the second week in October 2014..I just wanted to capture the dappled light coming through the trees when I took the shot.To see what the fountain looks like see the tag below.The 1932 fountain was funded by financier and philanthropist Frank Bailey as a memorial to his wife.It was renovated twice since then in 1956 and 2005,respectively.Please comment.Thank you for viewing.
Magnolia Plantation & Gardens
Charleston County, Lowcountry South Carolina
Date taken: March 2018
I've always liked this particular bridge at Magnolia Plantation and Gardens. Located at the rear of the property along the banks of the Ashley and away from the throngs of crowds, this bridge offers a few moments of solitude in an otherwise very lively spring garden. It appears, to me at least, that the bridge builder even tapped into the creative vibe inherent to this location as witnessed through the playful patterning of the structure.
I arrived to the Lowcountry this year a bit too early for peak azalea bloom. The flowers were largely bud stage. Many of the classic shots were not quite cooked enough. I was surprised, however, to find the resurrection fern and flowers to be particularly nice at this back bridge, perhaps due to greater sun exposure near the open water. A bit of dappled light and this was the result. Nothing tricky or special here. The work was in getting myself out of the way and letting the scene simply speak for itself.
Despite winter holding court this spring, things are finally blooming and my wheels are rolling again towards light and landscape. My bests to everyone in their own adventures behind the lens.
At the end of April, 2023, golden balsamroot glows along the trail to Chatfield Hill in the Columbia River Gorge. Low morning sidelight peeks through the forest to make the balsamroot glow.
Best viewed in the darkroom.
As expected, this very steep track or trail goes up Avalanche Peak. We did a loop, going down Scotts Track. The end of the town of Arthur's Pass is visible below. The Bealey River flows into the much larger Waimakariri River, in a mile-wide valley full of sediment at the upper right. Many rockslides are visible here, no doubt contributing to the high sediment load. Treeline is rather abrupt here. This shot is taken from just above the treeline on our ridge. The V-shape of the valley suggests that this area was not glaciated; alternatively, the slopes above have eroded enough to restore the V shape since the last glaciation.
