Very strong low angled winter sunshine emphasizes the colour of the dead bracken. East Force Garth farm on the hillside in the distance.
This is Yakiv Trachenko, talented Ukranian actor who was forced to take arms and defend his country from full scale invasion of ruzzia into ukraine. He was killed in action defending his people and soil to the very end.

A lone silhouette climbs the steps beneath a dark archway on the way up to Prague Castle. The bright courtyard beyond contrasts sharply with the shadowed passage, creating a dramatic black and white moment that captures the quiet, timeless atmosphere of Prague’s historic streets.

Some extraordinary and rapidly changing lighting conditions as very brief periods during which the sun almost breaks through the cloud cover create a dramatic view up the dale. Taken from Stable Edge above Newbiggin, with less zoom and a little further right than the previous image, this includes most of the Ettersgill farms centre and right of the picture.

the world is full of complicated answers.
long explanations, soft evasions.
but sometimes, there is only a simple, direct question.
it hangs in the air, heavy and warm in the late sun.
it is not an accusation.
it is an examination.
and in the silence that follows,
in the steady, unflinching gaze,
the real truth is found.
In normal light, this iris looks dark purple...almost black. I bought the bulb in Texas a couple of years ago, and it's called "Hello Darkness" after the Paul Simon song.
This was lit with a strobe equipped with a snoot underneath the flower, and a strobe in a softbox on either side of the flower. I just adjusted the flash output until I got the result I wanted. It looks entirely different lit like this which is why I used Halloween in the name.
Other plants and flowers that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my strobe lit plant set. In the description, I list resources that I've used to learn how to do this. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/...

A panoramic view of a swollen River Tees flowing over the horseshoe shaped cascade just above the main waterfall in strong early spring sunshine.
A mint-green Victorian catches direct sun on its bay-windowed corner, the saturated turquoise siding practically glowing against an impossibly deep blue sky above. Security bars cover the ground-floor arched windows, a practical addition that speaks to the realities of urban living layered onto this century-old facade. Decorative cornice brackets and paneled trim still show off the building's original ornamentation, even as chain-link fencing and a couple of trash bins occupy the small side yard below. A darker, shingle-sided neighboring building presses in close on the right, its own windows shuttered, illustrating the tight lot lines typical of this part of the city. The dramatic contrast between the vivid paint color and the near-cloudless sky turns an ordinary residential corner into something almost graphic in its boldness.

FR Le regard s’attarde, chargé d’un silence qui ne cherche plus à se dire.
La pose enferme doucement le visage, comme pour préserver ce qui vacille à l’intérieur.
La lumière effleure puis s’efface, laissant derrière elle une mélancolie calme, une émotion retenue, presque murmurée.
EN Her gaze lingers, carrying a silence that no longer needs words.
The pose gently encloses her face, as if protecting something fragile within.
Light brushes past and fades, leaving behind a quiet melancholy, an emotion held back, almost whispered.
Happy Saturday! Just learned that we are going to be hit with another round of -20F / -30F degree weather tomorrow and wanted to think about a much more enjoyable time of the year.

Qatar is a small (11,000 sqkm) but indubitably important Persian Gulf nation; aside from oil, more natural gas reserves are found here than anywhere except Iran and Russia. It is nearly totally surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Arabian Gulf. The country is flat with some rocky outcrops up to 130 feet (40 m) high, with the desert landscape ranging from rocky shrub-land to beautiful sand dunes, and some bleak salt flats in the centre of the country.
On my way from Nepal I've decided to have half a day stop over there too. Rented a car and went directly to desert to be rewarded with some stunning desert shots which I didn’t hope for. This one was taken just before sunset. The wind was blowing strong and dust was flying in the wind with wonderful evening light. I particularly love this shot for its timeless feel.

Spring in Tashkent carries the scent of renewal and sunlight. In the heart of Navruz Park, amidst the festive bustle of the holiday, the light itself chooses where to set the accents. This shot is a quiet ode to the Tashkent sun, which feels especially brilliant and sharp during these celebration days.
This is a photo I took on my friend's balcony in Dubai over my birthday this past February. I love how you get such an amazing reflection of the sunset and the Persian Gulf.

Sur is a fishermen's town on the east coast of Oman. In the past it has been well known for its Dhow building and was Oman's main centre of trade with East-Africa. Dhows are still being built in Sur today but there is no trade with East-Africa any longer. Nowadays Sur is a quiet town. You can wander in its authentic souk with Middle-Eastern ware; it has that genuine Arabic feel with locals wearing dish-dash or abaya. You can even treat yourself to a bit of culture by visiting one of the forts in Sur, the marine museum and dhows, or go for a stroll along the quay.
Sur has an ideal location; it is a great starting point for exploring Oman. It has great beaches and several interesting things to see and do nearby. For example turtle watching at Ras Al Hadd is only 45 km along the coast or The Wahiba Sands (Oman's beautiful desert) is reached within a one hour drive. Oman, with its quickly developing tourism, is a beautiful and friendly country and very suitable for people who like camping, boating, wadi trips, the beach, culture etc. Sur is 350 km from Muscat by the inland road and 150 km by the graded coastal road.

"Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering."
--Paulo Coelho
I've spent so much time waiting for things in this exact spot.
I was feeling very uncreative today. It was perfect light outside, but everything I tried was crap. So I plopped down on my front room couch and pouted til I got a last minute idea.
I love grain. I love high ISO. I hate the person who first decided that it was a sign of bad quality.
I chose to have my white balance on shade because I thought it was ironic to marry a really sad, empty feeling with warm, inviting colors.

Raouche is a residential and commercial neighborhood in Beirut, Lebanon. It is known for its upscale apartment buildings, numerous restaurants, cliff-side cafes and its wide seaside sidewalk, the Corniche, where strollers and joggers crowd the pavements in the evenings and weekend. Off the coast of Raouche, there is a natural landmark called the Pigeons' Rock (also known as the Rock of Raouche). Located at Beirut's western-most tip, the two huge rock formations, which stand like gigantic sentinels, are a popular destination for locals and visitors alike. Raouche's Pigeons' Rock has recently been featured on the front page of Microsoft's Bing.
When I had to pick my first blue hour/sunrise location in Beirut, I decided to go to Pigeons' Rock, even thought the sunrise would not provide dramatic colors as the sunset due to the location position as I already had plans for the evening time somewhere else. I was hoping for some nice clouds that would reflect the rising sun from the other side. Fortunately luck was on my side and I got some nice pink color on that lovely cloud.

Barningham village lit by bright sunshine through a hole in the cloud cover, but with an approaching heavy snow squall blotting out the moor in the background.
Photographing these flowers, for me, is all about the lighting. In this case, I wanted to back light the flower to show the translucent quality of the petals, and to make the flower glow. It also provides some rim lighting. I positioned a YN560 with a Rogue grid behind and to the left for the backlighting, and once that was adjusted the way I wanted it, I placed a YN560-III in a 24 inch soft box, in front and to the left side for a little fill light. The strobes were in manual mode and were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.

In Iceland's northern winter, it wasn't always immediately obvious where the clouds ended and the mountains began.

A day of stong breeze producing fast-moving patches of sunshine. This one falls on Cronkley Farm (right) and Hill End - the whitewashed one on the left. The Pennine Way long distance footpath passes to the right of and behind the large barn (centre right).
