This is Devils Ditch on the Pegsdon Nature Reserve
3 Exposures at 1EV
This is my second proper attempt at HDR, in my first attempt I had problems with the foreground movement (flowers on a windy day) causing blur with the blended exposures.
The wind was less for this shot but still caused some blur in the foreground grass.
I tried the automatic alignment features in Photomatix and this improved the foreground but produced blur elsewhere in the shot.
So I blended both HDR conversions in Photoshop with a layer mask to help improve the sharpness.

Trông cái nến nủng có vẻ hơi giả giả nhưng mình cảm thấy khá phù hợp với bối cảnh lạnh lẽo chết chóc:))
I've been reading a lot of Jack Kirby lately. Specifically his 70's material that was "Edited, Written and Drawn by Jack Kirby"
Until recently, I'd only read bits and pieces of the material through random quarter bin finds and loner copies from friends. I've read bits of everything but never a full run of any of it.
Now over the next month or so, I'm gonna read all of it in it's entirety!
So far I've finished the 1st Fourth World Omnibus and the Devil Dinosaur collection.
So far, I'm much more affected than I thought I'd be. The way the random Fourth World concepts weave in and out of each other is fascinating to watch. One idea is tossed out randomly as another is forgotten all while keeping the entire thing moving along a hidden track. Knowing how quickly the material was produced amazes me too. It's like some sort of Free Jazz experiment done in comics form. I look forward to see what's to come.
Devil Dinosaur in all it's wackiness has some really nice moments and some fun ideas. Time travel, alien robots. dino riders, and a bible parable are served out in primordial glory.
Having read the entire 9 issue run of Devil Dinosaur I thought I'd see what I had come away with. The brotherhood between Moon-Boy and Devil is the main focus of the series and what I tried to convey here.
Expect Inks soon.

We spent a day a Port Arthur and visited Devil's Kitchen and Tasman's Arch on the way back. Great coastline, very very warm weather.
This amazing exhibition tells the story of arguably the Greatest Munitions Factory on Earth, which was constructed on the Anglo-Scottish Border between scenic Dornock in Scotland and bustling Longtown in England. During 1915, Britain was at a massive disadvantage in the early part of the Great War through lack of a decent and consistent supply of quality ammunition.
That is until 30,000 women and men travelled from all over the world to come and work in this one massive factory, purpose built by the government on the northern shore of the Solway Firth specifically to mass manufacture cordite: a smokeless explosive usually made from nitro-glycerine and nitro-cotton that would go on to turn the battle around! Within 2 years this one uber factory was producing 1,100 tons of cordite a week, which was more than all the other munitions plants in Britain put together!
This is Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. 22 beautifully crafted islands in Lake Superior positioned off the coast of the Bayfield Peninsula in northern Wisconsin.
Centuries of wave action, freezing, and thawing have sculpted shorelines throughout Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. Some of the Great Lakes’ most spectacular scenery occurs where these forces interact with sandstone of the Devils Island Formation to create extensive sea caves.
Nature has carved delicate arches, vaulted chambers, and honeycombed passageways into cliffs on the north shore of Devils Island, Swallow Point on Sand Island, and along the mainland near the Lakeshore’s western boundary. The sea caves is Superior’s ever-changing handiwork.
It was such a hot day, maybe our last of summer who knows, but there was like a slight mist that sat on the Downs
Devil's Gap is a Natural Pass through which the Northern Extensions Railway was built in 1875. To-day this natural rock-cut still in use by the CNR, can be seen from looking west from Highway 11, just south of the Muskoka Store, about 5 kilometers south of Gravenhurst.
The Tasmanian Devil is endemic to Tasmania [Australia] and the Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD) has had a devasting impact on their population.
16th December 2007. I volunteered on the Corinna/Savage River 'Devil' monitoring trip.
Alex - female weighed 6.2kg, born 2005. Had 4 active teats. Showed no signs of DFTD.
The Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment continues to monitor the population and research DFTD.

The Devil's Chimney is a limestone rock formation that stands above a disused quarry on Leckhampton Hill, near Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.
It is named for its peculiar shape, that of a crooked and twisted chimney rising from the ground. It is a local landmark, but its origins are uncertain. In 1926 it survived an earthquake, but not without a few cracks. In 1985 it was repaired and protected from further erosion.
Legend holds that the Devil's Chimney is the chimney of the Devil's dwelling deep beneath the ground. Supposedly the Devil, provoked by the many Christian churches of the area, would sit atop Leckhampton Hill and hurl stones at Sunday churchgoers. However the stones were turned back on him, driving him beneath the ground and trapping him there so he could not further harass the villagers. Now he uses the mass of stones as his chimney to let free the smokes of hell.
In the past, when the “chimney” was accessible, visitors would leave a coin on top of the rock as payment to the Devil in exchange for his staying in his underground home and not leaving to create mischief and spread evil in the local area.
The 19th-century geologist S. Buckman suggested that the strange shape of the Devil's Chimney could be put down to differential erosion, involving the softer outer rock being worn away to leave only the inner harder rock remaining. However, this would require some explanation of why there was a column of harder rock there in the first place.
The truth is probably that the Devil's Chimney was left behind by 18th-century quarry workers, who quarried around it as a joke.

He's so awesome and evil. XD I'm so glad to finally get him, after waiting for such a long time! Anyway, I think he's going to be my Neo Noir's boyfriend, because they look quite similar. Sebastian didn't arrive alone, so I'll take some more photos of my other new arrival soon ^_^

I love deviled eggs. Today's recipe uses curry powder, toasted coconut, chutney, ginger, and cilantro.
Taken at a bike rally. Wish it were a little more clear. The smoke is from a biker in the backgroud doing a burnout.
