I experienced a rare sunset while visiting Half Moon Bay, California. The 18th hole overlooks the Pacific Ocean and the sunsets are usually cloudy with no color; however, on this particular night the sky was amazing with wonderful colors reflecting onto the clouds. These golfers were getting out of their cart and walking to the 18th green which overlooks the ocean. (Edited in Lightroom, Photoshop and Topaz)

 

It has been a while since I have experienced the spectacle of college “football” in the U.S. Maybe not as crazy as football in Europe or South America, but it has its own pageantry and craziness…Including the use of live mascots. Pictured here Ralphie #6 or #8 running before the start of the game. I won’t even address the issues of stress for these animal mascots, will save that for another time perhaps, but admittedly it is fun and crazy to see the handlers try and keep up with Ralphie. Past Ralphie’s have dragged handlers, run over them and have generally run amuck! Perhaps a little payback as less than 100 years ago, the American bison was teetering on the verge of extinction. By the beginning of the 20th century, the species' numbers fell from herds of roughly 40 million to less than 1,000 individuals. The impact on Native Americans was devastating. OK dialing down the seriousness it was a great game and went into double overtime and despite rooting for OSU, CU won it and the fans stormed the field, including my son who is a freshman at CU!

Fantasy Faire only has a few more days left, so if you haven't gone by, you should! Check out the beautiful sights, and give to a great cause. It's amazing how much work has been put into every last place, and I can promise you can find at least one sim that really speaks to you. If the people themselves don't. Most, including myself, have experienced the effects this miserable disease can have on themselves and loved ones. Strength comes in hope and unity, however, every little step getting us closer to a brighter future, I'm sure of that.

 

If you want to check out the sims or just support RFL and the awesome creators contributing to the cause, head over to my blog to catch a ride over!

I'm a couple days late, for this tribute. We have all experienced this in some version. If you haven't someone you KNOW has!

  

🎼: Run Away ~Devyn Rush~

 

✈️ : Elvion

 

She sits quiet in the classroom,

hardly talks to anyone

Always wishing she could just fit in,

while the other kids are having fun

She looks for someone who will understand,

but no one ever seems to wanna hear

Tells herelf she's the one to blame

If only she could disappear

 

She cries awake on her bed,

she lays, hoping they'll leave her alone

She thinks her only escape is to run away little girl, run

Run away little girl, run

 

The face she sees in the mirror

reflects the ugly things they say

She doesn't realize the hurt she tries to hide

Is what makes her feel this way

 

She cries awake on her bed,

she lays, praying they'll leave her alone

She wipes a tear from her face

And waits for her angel to come

She blames herself for the words they say

Inside she feels so numb

She thinks her only escape is to run away little girl, run

In the middle of the 17th century Nîmes experienced a period of prosperity. Population growth caused the town to expand, and slum housing to be replaced. To this period also belong the reconstruction of Notre-Dame-Saint-Castor, the Bishop's palace and numerous mansions (hôtels). This renaissance strengthened the manufacturing and industrial potential of the city, the population rising from 21,000 to 50,000 inhabitants.

 

In this same period the Fountain gardens, the Quais de la Fontaine, were laid out, the areas surrounding the Maison Carrée and the Amphitheatre were cleared of encroachments, whilst the entire population benefited from the atmosphere of prosperity.

This is a small part of an exhibit at Birmingham Museum.

 

The artwork was done by Donald Rodney (1961- 1998) and titled as "Land of Milk and Honey II" Rodney was born in Birmingham. He used objects in his work to explore aspects of the human experience. His father migrated to Smethwick from the Carribean in the mid 20th century, in search of a better life in the "Land of Milk and Honey" The Vitrine contains coins and milk. They represent the 'sourced' reality many migrants actually experienced. The material he used will deteriorate and change over time.

When I started doing this an experienced photographer told me 'if you're not careful you end up taking the same shots over and over again'

 

Over time I've come to understand he was 100% correct

 

This shot has shadow., reduced and varied light., in fact it reminded me of an oil painting where the artist deliberately plays with those things to add interest.,

 

It's not 'classic' photography

 

But it was my favourite shot of the day

 

Why? … Simply because it was different

   

From my original photo taken in Brittany in 2007.

 

Vitré is a town located in the Ille-et-Vilaine department of Brittany, France. It has a population of approximately 20,000 people and is known for its medieval architecture, including a castle, ramparts, and half-timbered houses.

During World War II, Vitré was occupied by German forces and its residents experienced hardships and restrictions imposed by the occupying army. The town saw heavy fighting between the German army and the Allies, and was eventually liberated by American forces in August 1944.

The people of Vitré played a significant role in the resistance movement during the war, and their sacrifices and efforts are remembered and honored to this day.

8-Sep Northern Utah experienced a destructive wind storm with gusts reaching 99 mph (159 km/h). 200,000 homes/businesses without power (I am one of those).

 

I prefer not to photograph destruction or bad things and instead try to find beauty in all. So naturally, I headed out to the Great Salt Lake!

 

Photographing out in the open was a real challenge; my tripod would not stay, so I shot handheld. The salt spray was everywhere, and I was coated in salt.

 

The Great Salt Lake - GPS is not the exact spot of the photo.

 

No need to comment – Just enjoy :-)

Experienced one of the worst weathers in recent summers in Iceland that day with extremely windy conditions and heavy rain. Captured this from the viewpoint at Hraunfossar Lava Falls.

  

Hraunfossar - Lava Falls - are beautiful and unusual natural phenomena. Clear, cold springs of subterranean water seep through the lava and run as tiny waterfalls and rapids into the Hvita River.

  

Baby African Bush Elephants, scientifically known as Loxodonta africana, are incredibly adorable and endearing creatures. They are born weighing around 200-250 pounds (90-115 kilograms) and stand about 2.5 to 3 feet (76-91 centimeters) tall at the shoulders.

 

These young elephants are highly social animals and rely on close bonds with their family members for protection and learning. They are under the constant care and guidance of their mothers and other experienced female elephants within the herd. Baby elephants stay close to their mothers, learning essential survival skills, such as finding water, identifying edible plants, and understanding social behaviors within the herd.

 

Play is an essential aspect of their early development. They engage in playful activities, such as mock charging, splashing in water, and chasing birds or other small animals. Through play, they hone their motor skills and social interactions, preparing them for adulthood.

 

Baby African Bush Elephants are heartwarming creatures to observe in the wild, and their presence contributes to the rich tapestry of life in the African savannah.

Business has been slow, so I didn't have to work today. I took a drive to the hill country looking for something to photograph. I got a few I liked and than the sun was just too bright and everything starting looking ugly..:)

Early in the morning on May 24, during the 2015 Texas–Oklahoma floods, the Blanco River experienced catastrophic flooding. The river at Wimberley rose more than 30 feet in less than three hours, and set a new record high crest of more than 40 feet while disabling the gauge.

 

Rainfall totals of 10 to 13 inches were reported upstream in southern Blanco County, and all of this water entered the Blanco River and Little Blanco River. The Fischer Store Rd. bridge over the Blanco River was destroyed by flood waters west of Wimberley. The Blanco River, down stream from the bridge, at Wimberley reached a record crest. The gauge failed at 40 feet and the USGS later estimated the crest at 44.9 feet with peak flow of 175,000 cubic feet per second (5,000 m3/s). This height was more than 10 feet over the previous record height of 33.3 feet from 1929. Homes along the banks of the Blanco River from the City of Blanco, through Wimberley, and down to San Marcos experienced an historic flood. Many homes were totally destroyed and swept down stream. Many homes were struck by large debris, including full size cypress trees which typically lined the banks of the river.

At Eeersterivier, we experienced very high winds and of course equally high seas. Climbing down by the band of rocks which acts as a barrier between the beach and the sea, I had to make a quick getaway, but not before managing this shot!

When I recently spent a weekend in Prague, I experienced and captured many great moments. But there was exactly one that led me to the beautiful city on the river Vltava and that was this one.

I once wished, if only for a few minutes, to stand completely alone on the famous Charles Bridge. A bridge that is crossed by thousands of people every day in a city that never really comes to a rest.

And indeed I succeeded. After I had to wait a bit until the last party-goers had more or less straightforward crossed the river on their way to bed, I was the only one. What a great feeling.

It really didn't take very long until the first photographer (the first one after me) joined me and the moment was over. But these few minutes are now mine forever.

 

Als ich kürzlich ein Wochenende in Prag verbrachte, habe ich viele tolle Momente erlebt und festgehalten. Doch es gab genau einen, der mich in die wunderschöne Stadt an der Moldau geführt hat und das war dieser hier.

Ich habe mir gewünscht einmal, wenn auch nur für ein paar Minuten, völlig allein auf der berühmten Karlsbrücke zu stehen. Einer Brücke, die täglich von tausenden Menschen überquert wird in einer Stadt die nie wirklich zur Ruhe kommt.

Und tatsächlich ist es mir gelungen. Nachdem ich etwas warten musste, bis die letzten Partybesucher auf dem Weg ins Bett mehr oder weniger geradlinig die Fluß überquert hatten, war ich der einzige. Ein grandioses Gefühl.

Es dauerte auch wirklich nicht sehr lange, bis der erste Fotograf (also der erste nach mir) sich zu mir gesellte und der Moment vorbei war. Doch diese wenigen Minuten, gehören nun für immer mir.

If you have not experienced the Lion King this may be lost on you but this is where the Mountain Lion King is crowned or so I imagine at least in the misty morning light. I have to believe that any cougar would love the patch of ground between Sedona and Flagstaff as its territory, it meets the mountain criteria and I would be lion if I said it wasn’t beautiful to roam in. With the poor jokes out of the way and Sedona in our rearview we move onto the higher and more northern ground of Arizona

 

I took this on Dec 24th, 2019 with my D750 and Tamron 70-200 f2.8 G2 Lens at 102mm, 1/15s, f11 ISO 100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia ,and DXO Nik

 

Disclaimer: My style is a study of romantic realism as well as a work in progress

 

"Tugs have been towing aggregate-laden barges out of British Columbia’s Pitt River and on down the Fraser River since the days of wooden scows and steam-powered tugs. Since the earliest days the boats have had to contend with the railway bridge about three miles upstream from the Pitt’s confluence with the Fraser River. Over the generations, skippers have learned a lot about the tides and river currents that challenged the old steam power and continue to challenge the modern diesel-powered tugs. This is not stuff that is taught in maritime training schools. It is knowledge that is learned by making the run with an experienced captain and finally by new captains feeling their way into the job."

This Winter we experienced (so far) frost and cold temperatures only for a few days. Nevertheless it was a fresh and exciting experience just as during our hiking tour between Porta Westfalica and Bad Oeynhausen. Ostwestfalen, Germany

I have experienced something serious in my life. I have just returned from the hospital diagnosed with a heart attack. (Exactly they call it "Heart arrhythmia" ). I'll have to adapt and change my whole life now, even on flickr! My time will be even more limited than it is now, but I want to be faithful to all my friends here as much as possible. It may be that my comments will be a bit shorter and that I will not be active on flickr in between for a long time. I hope for your understanding, but my life and my health is important to me in this case. Maby it takes a long way to come back to my normal life. Please excuse me.

THE SWEETEST TABOO - SADE

 

FEAR/TEMOR

 

Standing by and letting me float free

you stand so close; I can taste your breath

my heart is racing, but my soul is slow

I am running to nowhere until I hit the wall

 

You play to me late into the night

you listen to me singing all day long

we hold each other so distantly

both scared to run to where we can't hide

 

let me closer into your arms

wrap me with love and tender kisses

walk out with me; tell me all you know

and dance me to the golden hour

 

I don't think it at all possible

to fall in love and remain as friends

so I let you walk alone on your reconfigured journey

it's the only way this will always end

 

I can write and re-write every tiny detail

but it will always play out just like this

we had a good run for all this time

but it could never be ended so simply with a lover's kiss

 

So you walk off like a cowboy into the sunset

and I'll drive alone along parallel lines

you take the right road, it's the right road for you

and I'll take what's left of the setting sun

 

The power lines above us are filled with energy

I can feel the tingling in my head

but they can't raise the flatness all around us

or erase the memories of the things we said

 

Fear is something that I learned from the age of seven,

do you remember that day, the day I drowned

I knew then what I'll always know

when something's lost, it can never be re-found

 

What you've got to do is create

your own sweet reality within your pure but burgeoning mind

nothing and no-one can take this from you

so you learn to be cruel just to be kind

 

You'll be ok; I know you'll make it

you're not so lost you can't be found

but what love has taught me; I know that life has brought me

the imagination and strength to stand my ground

My artwork is a compilation of 5 of my photographs

 

I was uninspired trying to come up with something interesting for this theme until I looked in my "Measure & Level" drawer and found a couple old rulers that have obviously been around for a while.

 

The green smear of paint on the top ruler was my grandfather's tool color and the one on the bottom is actually stamped "Made in the U.S.A."-- very uncommon these days.

 

Anyway, Happy Macro Monday everyone! :)

2020 Lamborghini Adventador SVJ Coupe

With wild-looking bodywork and dramatic performance, the 2020 Lamborghini Aventador is spectacular in every sense of the word. It's also the last of a dying breed, with hybrid technology expected to enhance future iterations of the V-12 supercar. Still, this wedge-shaped, scissor-doored Lambo blasts into the sunset with neck-snapping acceleration and a maniacal exhaust note.

The 2020 Aventador powertrain hierarchy begins with a mid-mounted naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V-12 that develops 730 horsepower and 509 lb-ft of torque that is transmitted to the wheels via a seven-speed automated-manual transmission. This basic setup is shared among the three distinct variants, but the track-focused SVJ (which stands for Superveloce Jota) has various enhancements that unlock extra horsepower and torque that meet the pavement through all four wheels. We drove this brutally powerful monster—along with its roofless counterpart—and experienced their tremendous acceleration and kidney-crushing cornering forces firsthand. The hefty machines heaved through the corners, but their incredible grip and rear-steering system helped it change direction.

"Solidão is a Portuguese term meaning loneliness or abandonment. It is an emotion experienced by many people and can take various forms, such as emotional distance, lack of social connections, and feelings of isolation. It is important to acknowledge that solitude is a human experience and that support and help is available for those who are dealing with it. It is also important to seek connection and community with others, which can alleviate the effects of solitude."

Ships to Shore 2017 - Steveston

 

One of the world’s largest tall ships, the Kaiwo Maru made a special guest appearance to Garry Point Park in Steveston, BC in honour of Canada's 150th anniversary.

 

Built in 1989, this majestic tall ship sailing from Japan is 361 feet in length and has over 29,000 square feet in sails.

Also known as the 'King of the Sea'.

 

Kaiwo Maru is a Japanese four-masted training barque tall ship.

She was built in 1989 to replace a 1930 ship of the same name.

 

The Ships to Shore celebration attracted thousands upon thousands of people, anxious to catch what possibly could be a once in a lifetime glimpse of this magnificent sailing ship.

In the background there were nautical displays, carnival activities, food concessions, fireworks and much more...

As night fell, a live band drew and captivated a large audience of people.....truthfully, none of that seemed to distract myself nor many other dedicated photographers..

I know I couldn't 'steer clear' (so to speak) from this extraordinary ship's side, nor could I afford wasting one precious moment of what night fall was offering.

The dimming sky provided ongoing colour and light photog opportunities that enhanced the magic of this fine lady and her scenic surroundings.

A sight to 'sea'

Melbourne experienced a colder and wetter than average winter this year, which then became the wettest spring ever recorded. Now however, it seems that summer has finally arrived, albeit late, with glorious days of summer sunshine that bring out beautiful blooms on all the flowers.

 

This includes my "Nahema" rose in my rear garden which grows by my back terrace. My garden is quite shady, but it does live in a spot where it gets afternoon sun.

 

"Nahema" was bred by Georges Delbard, in France, from "Grand Siecle" and "Heritage" in 1991 and released in France in 2006. "Nahema" has established a reputation as one of the best fragrant climbers on the market. It produces masses of highly fragrant and deeply cupped old-fashioned blooms with velvety petals of delicate almond blossom pink. This rose blooms in profusion throughout the season with a strong perfume of citrus, peach, apricot, pear and rose. The renowned perfume of the Guerlain range of perfumes is based on the essence of this rose.

This track runs through a field edge in Somerset, it is parallel with Hollow Lane, a road that runs off a hill into the village of Montacute, Hollow Lane is now a tarmac road. In days gone by these lanes would become progressively deeper,as heavy rains washed away the soil, loosened by the action of carts. Eventually the sides of the deep lane would collapse and a new route would have to be found. I wonder if this short section was part of a deep lane that experienced a collapse and that the current Hollow Lane may be the replacement.

** One of the places Mary wanted to revisit was the Devils dyke which is just a few miles from Brighton. It was a place she came too when she was a young. It's certainly a beautiful landscape. It is a coincidence that she now spends a lot of time in the East Yorkshire Wolds whose chalk landscape is so similar to the Sussex Downs . After a walk in the Dyke we went to a pub that Mary had been fond of the Shepard and Dog in the village of Fulking. It a pleasing pub in a wonderful landscape the only downside was being charged an obscene amount of money for two pints but thats southern England for you .

 

Devil's Dyke is a 300 foot deep V-shaped dry valley on the South Downs in Sussex managed by the National Trust it is about a mile in length . The valley is the result of solifluction and river erosion. More than fourteen thousand years ago, the area experienced an intensely cold climate (but not glacial conditions). Snowfields capped the South Downs. Permafrost conditions meant that the chalk was permanently frozen. In summer, the snowfields melted and saturated the top layer of soil, because the water could not permeate the frozen chalk underneath. Waterlogged material situated above the permafrost slid down the gradient, removing material by friction, exposing deeper layers of frozen chalk. When the Ice Age ended, the snowfields covering the South Downs melted, and rivers formed across Sussex. The Devil's Dyke valley was completed by one such river.

I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO

Melbourne experienced a colder and wetter than average winter last year, which then became the wettest spring ever recorded. However, summer did eventually arrive, albeit late, with glorious days of sunshine that brought out beautiful blooms on all the flowers. This included my Elina Rose, which is one of the strongest rose bushes in my front garden.

 

Elina is a very prolific, constantly flowering Hybrid Tea rose bred in Northern Ireland by the Dickson family in 1983. It was released in 1984. Each rich cream coloured flower comprises around 25 petals. Elina’s perfect classic rose shape, long straight stems, mild fragrance and attractive foliage ensures it is a popular cut flower variety and sought after by florists.

Lindesnes Fyr

 

One of the warmest days we experienced in Summer 2022 in Norway, up to 23 degrees centigrade and pleasant water temperatures of about 19 degrees, ideal for a refreshing swim :-). For many this may be too cold, but for me it is more bearable than the sultry heat of the Mediterranean. In the future I will spend my summers more often in the north...

" ...she experienced each year this lifting of the spirits as August slipped away."

 

I know many who don't share my sentiments for the passing of summer....yet, I dearly love this time of year and look forward to the cozy, nestled at home coming months....my most loved of all.

Experienced yesterday!

WOW, what a sunset me and my 1-2-1 tuition day client Ian experienced this afternoon in the Lake District. This sure was an incredible sunset. The clouds were amazing.

 

This photo is a blend of two photos, the mountain and sky were taken at 1/15 second while the water was shot at 3.2 seconds. The reason for blending the two together is that I felt that the clouds were just a tad soft at 3.2 seconds and I preferred the sharp and detailed look of the clouds instead.

 

It sure was the most impressive and evocative sunset that I have ever witnessed in the Lakes District to date and I have been photographing the Lakes twelve years now and visiting it a great deal longer.

 

This image is a blend of two photos. One for the clouds and the fells and one for the water. This allowed me to capture the clouds nice and sharp and detailed and the water a short exposure to soften it down a little.
