Shot with a LEE 100 Grad ND Soft 0.3

Stop and calm down before the trip to the deep blue sea

My neighbor's hibiscus blossoms are still going strong. Time to get some shots before summer ends! This shot came out a deeper red than I expected, mostly due to my camera settings (i just got a new lens and was experimenting.) I

I Could Not Love You More

Bee Gees

Now that we're alone.

No more hide and seek.

You are the highest dream to me.

And as you softly sleep

then I can tell you what it means.

Locked in my arms like lovers lie,

I will not let you slip away.

Is this the summer of them all.

Is this my night of nights

that you came to stay.

Here you are, owner of my heart,

just the way that love should be.

And there's something I must say to you,

if you promise to believe

that it's you I'm living for

and I could not love you more.

Seasons may come and seasons go

but these are the truest words I know.

Face to face, eye to eye.

This is the summer of of our lives.

One love that cannot die.

Here you are, owner of my soul,

never let you say goodbye.

And there is something I must say to you,

we leave the world outside

and you have come to me at last, we start.

Open up your heart,

let my deepest love inside.

I'm only doing what I have to do.

If you promise to believe

that I could not love you more.

Here you are (you are), owner of my heart,

just the way that love should be.

And there's something I must say to you,

we leave the world outside

and you have come to me at last (at last), we start.

Open up your heart,

let my deepest love inside (ah).

I'm only doing what I have to do.

If you promise to believe

that it's you I'm living for

that it's you I'm living for

and I could not love you more.

One of the many stunning fjords on the Lofoten islands, near Flakstad and Nusfjord.. This is a vertical panorama taken with a drone... The different levels of deepness of the water are very interesting in this particular Fjord.

Thanks JoesSistah for your beautiful texture.

Afternoon light indoors from a distant window. Light experiments with a Calla Lily cut from my Gold Coast hinterland garden.

This is Middle Falls on Mt Airy Creek. I made this single from the trail about 100 feet above the creek below on river-right. This is probably the best vantage point for a view on the length of the waterfall, as it is practically a slide. There is no way to reach the base of this waterfall from this view, or for that matter, any section of the creek except for the upper and lower extremities. The ridgeline trail is a straight vertical drop to the bottom with no hand-holds. This photo accommodates and portrays the length of the waterfall but how extremely steep it is viewed from this point. I did find a possible entry point about 100 yads downstream off the trail possibly leading down to the creek side, but I wouldn't even think of it without a 100-foot rope. Even if I were able to make it to the creek below, I'm not sure how visible the waterfall would be given the geometry of it's upper height and rhododendron overgrowth. I'm still going to plan an excursion to make it down though.

Äste reflektieren das Licht. Tief blau, am späten Nachmittag.

Branches reflect the light. Deep blue, in the late afternoon.

This is a 2 panel mosaic portrait of NGC 6188, the famous dragons of Ara. Nestled deep in the southern hemisphere in the constellation of Ara, this emission nebula is a magnet for us astrophotographers... and for good reasons, it packs some serious visual punch! With its striking resemblance to 2 dragons and its swirling gas clouds, it's has a very mystic appearance.

At the bottom right corner of the frame you will also find NGC 6164, also called theDragons Egg.

Each year, I circle back to this object to measure how my skills have levelled up. And you're looking at, in my humble opinion, the best shot I've managed yet... I think... My favourite at least !!

In framing this image, my goal was to enhance the sense of movement and flow. By highlighting details in the shadows and striking the right balance with the colours, I've tried to capture the dynamic essence of the interaction between the gasses, the hot and the cold and the dust blocking light.

He was demanding. He always would be. But sometimes, he was so vulnerable and she realized she had power in the relationship as well. She hadn't expected that. He was as vulnerable to her as she was to him. He just acted arrogant and bossy, but deep down, where it counted, he didn't want to lose her either.

A macro view of the business end of a 16-inch chain saw blade. The frame represents a span of 3-inches across.

I recently bought this chain saw to remove some dead trees on the property, which of course means that it first gets hoisted onto the photography table.

Strobist/technical info:

The scene is a 15-image focus stack composite. It was illuminated by two Nikon SB900 and one SB700 speedlights. The SB900s were placed at 9- and 3-o'clock, one-foot above and two-feet away from the blade. They were fired in Manual mode @ ¼ +0.7EV - power through Neewer 24" x 24" soft boxes. The SB700 was placed at one-o'clock for backlight. It also was one-foot above and two-feet away from the blade. It was fired in Manual mode @ ¼ - power through a gridded snoot.

The SB900s were triggered by three PocketWizard Plus X flash triggers. The SB700 was placed in SU-4 mode and triggered by the other flashes.

Lens: Tokina AT - X M100 AF PRO D(AF 100mm f / 2.8 Macro) with a 12mm extension tube attached.

they are pretty boring, the numerous cloudless sunsets at the moment. In principle, one looks like the other, even if the colors are undoubtedly beautiful every time. The special thing is Lake Constance, which is often very calm at the moment - on the one hand there is no wind, on the other hand there are no waves of motor boats that are otherwise constantly present at this time of year. Perfect (or almost perfect reflections are very rare...
