After arriving in my hometown last December I woke up for a few hours at night because of jet lag. My hometown Schuders is in the Swiss Alps, 9 timezone hours away from home in California. I went to the balcony to take this moonlight shot. A few impressions:
- No sound at night, absolutely nothing - I only hear my own breathing and my hart beat
- When the sun comes up, the wooden house wakes up too, making cracking noises - houses here have a personality too
- My mom recycles everything, even a small bucket for metals - very little waste, she avoids products with plastic where possible
- My mom left her car for me in the village down the valley where I arrived by train (she had an operation on her hand the day before, and could not drive up to Schuders); she left the keys in a restaurant with a waiter she did not know - people trust each other here
- Yogurt here is so much better - no non-fat crap
- Eggs from the farm have a lot of flavor - food intake by chickens makes a big difference

There is a difference in altitude of 3400 m (11 155 feet) between the bottom of Death Valley and the top of Telescope Peak, only 300 m (1000 feet) less than altitude between Everest summit and the base camp...!
What a difference a change of colour can make. This is a Mono conversion of my last post. Think it turned out quite dramatic.
This is a very long exposure of 601 secs, using a Lee Big Stopper together with a Little Stopper.
Taken from my back window at 6.25 am today and what a difference in two days . e.g. the high winds that we had yesterday have died down, our son who'd been laid poorly with Covid tells me that he's fit and well to go into work tomorrow so all is well in my world - but I sat there as the moon set in the West and the sun rose in East being thankful, counting my blessings and thinking of other places in the world such as the people living in the Ukraine and other war torn countries...

What a difference a couple weeks makes!
This was the scene at MP 83 on the Boston and Albany on the Friday morning before Halloween. What a different scene from when I shot here two weeks prior as seen in this image: flic.kr/p/2jW9fTk
Reminding me more of Alaska, winter swept in with an October Surprise this morning nearly two months before its official start.
But the trains keep rolling as they always do...be it sun or clouds, rain or snow, some things are consistent as they have been here for some 180 years on the rails of the old Boston and Albany.
This is just another Q436 (Selkirk to Worcester manifest) pulling in to work the yard this time with only a single unit up front.

Location: Canola field on a farm near Durbanville.
Description: Every time I drive past this canola field, the yellow seems brighter and more intense than it did the previous time! Every time I notice it (its hard to miss) I tell myself, hey Paul, you’d better make a plan to shoot this yellow landscape soon, before the farmer decides to harvest his crop!
When I arrived at the scene yesterday afternoon, I couldn’t believe my luck!! The farm road that I’d followed to get to the flowers, actually passed right through the middle of the field… presenting me with another perfect vanishing point!!
Technique: Fortunately I’d remembered to bring my step ladder to this shoot, because the extra two meters of elevation made the world of difference here!!
Equipment: Sony Alpha 100 (11-18mm ultra-wide)
GPS: -33.748943 (Latitude) - 18.657974 (Longitude)

Smile in the mirror. Do that every morning and you'll start to see a big difference in your life.

Obviously the same village church in Pulham St Mary. Taken with the same in camera Fuji settings for jpeg as the other day and from a similar position. The only real significant change is the natural light between the two days. The building itself seems to change in terms of texture! I much prefer the first image for the light but I thought it was interesting the difference between the light conditions and why we chase it so much. Anyway I decided to post this today.
18th December 2020:
What a difference a day makes. Raining again and blowing a howler, so a quick photo out of the hall window of the December view.
Hadn't got the camera on the right settings, but then couldn't be bothered with a retake. Partly because as I'm also waiting for important news from my sister and don't want to be far from the laptop.

Im Spätherbst fuhr ich bereits schon einmal diesen Weg durch Thüringen. Es war damals ein trüber Morgen. Heute war ich kurz vor dem Sonnenuntergang unterwegs...
Überwältigt vom Unterschied, den lediglich ein paar Sonnenstrahlen und ein imposanter Himmel machen können, muss ich euch hier noch mal beide Bilder zeigen!

This image is one of a series of five or six photographs, and both images in each diptych were all taken within half an hour of each other, the only difference being the length of exposure time.

The difference between technology and slavery is that slaves are fully aware that they are not free..ILD,my Sunbeam,you help me to see with my own eyes again💕
Earlier this year Grocery Outlets had umbrella stands for about $18 and I bought a few, for my house and my daughters at the lake. I have great fun in finding different perches and positioning them to create different bokehs...this one being against the hill with brown grasses and oak trees. I can sit here for hours at a time as the birds come to the feeders. When this one male finally landed on this carefully placed perch and started looking around, it was fun to see 'what a difference' a turn of the head could make!
Shot photo as square. First used Adobe photoshop beta wallpaper 14 effect. Then used contrast punch effect. Then went into the normal oil painting screen, but chose the difference effect at 95%. Then used the summer effect. ( I normally use contrast punch again, but the result was way too intense...beyond bright!!) Finished with a fine lime green border.
Some of you will remember me making this 3 ton excavator last year. A few weeks ago I called to see my friends at Clem Jacob Hire so I brought the bucket of the 90 ton excavator with me to show them the difference. It got a few laughs I can tell you. 😂
In the top left square the Rose's Bud and the Rose-tubular (both designed by Toshikazu Kawasaki), are next to each other, in normal position and upside down.
Hope you see the difference between these two roses, closely related and yet different.
I had some fun changing the colors and making this family gallery ;-))
Happy start of your week!!

A couple of local jobs switching around Pomona Yard, both sporting former N&W SD40-2s, pause beside each other for a moment, allowing one to see the distinct differences that time has brought to these sister engines.

What a difference a few days can make, last week the weather was so bad the water in the reservoir looked as choppy as the North Sea, the water was spraying over the dam wall, where I’m standing. The whole scene, even though it’s August, looked like something from a winter storm. Yesterday evening about half an hour before sunset, there was hardly a breath of wind and everything was calm. A large family of ducks were creating a few ripples in the distance but that was all.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
The same spot on the Eldred river with high water flows, shutter speeds of 1/20 and 1/640 of a second.
without branch - this was kindly done by a fellow flickerite - who has photoshop - the magic wand of the photo world. It makes a difference don't you think?
All thanks to Greg fellow flickrite of GBurwash - he's the man with the photoshop - and the skill of course - Thanks Greg. Diolch
Just messing about with some filters on my phone, I was taken by how different this scene at Stoney Clouds looked with brighter colours and thought it would be interesting seeing them together!
I know this picture is quite simular to the last one, but it is from the same series- I hopethis isn´t any problem and you will like this picture anywaaaays :-)

I've always struggled to tell the difference between left and right when I'm pressed. It makes me a poor navigator when I'm asked to provide directions in unfamiliar places and even worse at taking instructions if I'm behind the wheel. Jab me in the ear and I might just about work out that you want me to take the next right, but if you say "right at the next junction," there's still a fifty percent chance I'll turn left. I even failed my driving test the first time because I gave way to a car to the left that was patiently waiting for me to enter the roundabout first. The second time I passed after having written "L" and "R" in the spaces between my thumbs and forefingers - although I had to get someone to check to make sure I'd got them the right way around,
The reason I mention this apparently irrelevant back story is that this inability to distinguish the dexter from the sinister also let me down close to the top of the Pap of Glencoe. It's not the biggest mountain in Scotland by a long chalk; as you can see here it's dwarfed by the peaks of the Aonach Eagach that climb ever higher out of the left (had to think about that) hand side of the frame. It is however achingly steep on the approaches to the summit from the south side out of Glencoe village. By the time you reach the more gentle slopes of its shoulder and gaze up grimly at the seemingly vertical sides of the rocky dome you might be forgiven for turning around and stumbling back down the track behind you. But on that warm and clear July afternoon when I'd stood on top of far higher mountain summits on each of the previous two days I kept on going - I wanted to see that view along Loch Leven.
And so I soldiered on, soon arriving at the last hundred feet of ascent over the rocky slopes, until I reached a point where I realised the path had somehow deserted me. After a brief hesitation I went to the left, when I should have gone to the right, which found me scrambling up uncharted crags over the last few yards before landing in a happy heap near the summit cairn.
Nobody else had come the same way as me, and as I sat on top of the mountain sipping Glenmorangie from a hip flask given to me by Jim from Clydebank at the foot of Ben Nevis the previous day, I gazed at the dreamy landscape far below. I could see the whole of Loch Leven, from where the West Highland Way footpath leaves Kinlochleven to the point at which it flows into the much larger Loch Linnhe under Ballachulish Bridge. Beyond that lay the Ardnamurchan peninsula where the lighthouse marks the most westerly point of mainland Britain (go on admit it - you thought it was Land's End didn't you?). It's moments like this that stay with you forever. It's moments like this that make you want to return and stand on as many summits as possible in the years to come. Would you like to see that view? Oh go on then:

For a pleasingly long period of time I had this lofty Caledonian kingdom all to myself, but as my time here passed, small groups arrived and left, their departures revealing the easiest way back down to safety. At least I wasn't going to have to go back down the mountain the way I'd come.
Seven months later I was back with Dave and Lee on another unforgettable visit to Scotland when we'd come to photograph as much of this impossibly beautiful part of Britain as the time and conditions would allow. There was only a small amount of mountaineering on that occasion, although it did bring the happiest morning with the camera of my entire life:

Later we arrived here, close to Kinlochleven on the banks of the loch where I found myself gazing lovingly at the perfectly shaped dome across the icy blue water. "I climbed that last summer." I announced to my very tolerant companions for the umpteenth time. They tutted quietly to themselves as they went about their compositions, while I continued staring at this breathtaking landscape in front of me. Once you've stood on top of a mountain, you feel that unbreakable bond each time you see it again afterwards.
The Scottish Highlands have probably affected me more deeply than any other place I've visited. Some places just do that: they get under your skin and stay there. You keep hearing that distant northern echo on the cold Arctic winds and daydream about the time when you can be there again. It may not be for a while yet, but when we can roam once more I'll be answering that call and setting the compass towards the northern skies.
Every color,
every perspective,
every triumph,
every defeat,
every me,
and every you —
lies in the mirrors
of this kaleidoscope.
