Taken from the London Monument. The Shard puts on its own show, supplementing a perfect sunset.
For an extra bonus, zoom into the top third of the building to see a host of people reveling in the sunset from the observation deck.
Honestly, I'm not convinced by the result of my new experience ... I always try to keep the natural light as much as possible, this time I had fun with filters and here is the result.
What do you think ?
Thanks a lot for all your comments my friends !

UNDER LAYERS is an innovative project that unites the street art of Alice Pasquini with the 3D photography of Stefano C. Montesi. This interactive experience with the spectator starts August 3 along the Lungomare Paolo Toscanelli in Ostia, bringing them on a journey into the picture, flying between reality and illusion. Alice Pasquini’s art, with its pictorial representations of the small, everyday moments of the human experience, will be transformed via an optical illusion created with camera of photographer Stefano C. Montesi. The result brings the viewer inside the fantastical world of the artist. Moving beyond the limits of wall painting as a two-dimensional experience, the installations in Ostia, in the niches along Lungomare Paolo Toscanelli (in the vicinity of number 186), will take places in three phases from August 3 until October 3, giving the city the possibility to participate in this unique art installation.
The 3D effect is created by simultaneously photographing the subject, in this case Alice’s artwork painted on different level, with two cameras. Only the “live” image, and not a subsequent conversion from 2D to 3D, assures a proper stereoscopic image for the human eye. The images seem suspended on different planes and gives the spectator the sensation of being an active part of the artwork.
The poster installations are also pleased without glasses, yet when seen with traditional (analog) 3D glasses, Alice’s drawings transform into a world that flies out of the wall, blurring the lines between fantasy and reality. The glasses will be left at various drop off points in the area of the wall, including the Teatro del Lido di Ostia (via delle Sirene 22), as a way to have citizens actively participate in the experience.
The project is being promoted in cooperation with Culture and Tourism Assessor of Rome.
From 23 to 25 October, in Rome, the project will culminate in an event a OPENGRA in via Francesco Negri 51/53.

Tibet Blog - Day 1
I have access to my own oxygen bar, sucking back air from a tube is quite a fun experience I did not expect to encounter. Luckily I didn’t actually have to experience this pleasantry for my siblings got to do that for me. I slept.
The flight from Beijing to Lhasa left at 7am on August 6th 2009. That means in order to get your lifeless body to the airport in time to make the flight, you needed to wake up at the ghastly hour of 4am. Or maybe it was actually closer to 5am. All I know is that I never fully woke up.
Halfway through the flight I felt myself becoming incredibly tired. It was as though I had awoke at 4am. And not just that one morning, but every morning previous for as long as I could remember. Needless to say, I fell asleep. This brought me one disadvantage, I missed all offerings of water during the flight which meant my mouth was about as dry as a mouthful of instant coffee. (The kind of coffee one has when they wake up at 4am and are not awake enough to realize that these instant coffee grounds need water. Or maybe that’s what they really mean by “instant”. No water.) I was parched to say the least, but worse yet, I was not feeling too well.
Lhasa, “The Roof of The World” (many probably claim this title) sits at about 3600 meters above sea level. There are over 3000 hours of annual sunshine, magnified due to the high altitude. For the average bloke like me, these statistics mean trouble. There is essentially no air for one to breathe, and your skin roasts the moment it encounters a ray of sun. Sunscreen is a good idea even though it is akin to rubbing yourself down with yak butter or other oils (depending on where you are from) 15 minutes prior to any outdoor activity.
This high altitude means altitude sickness. Somehow I managed to get it while I was on the plane. I had never heard of pre-altitude sickness before (neither has Microsoft Word) but apparently I had it. Before departing Beijing I took Diamox. It is a drug that is supposed to help one adjust to altitude sickness. I just took it because my mom said so, and you always listen to your mother right? Anyways, this drug has a countless number of side effects, all of which I experienced on route to Lhasa. Headache, nausea, extreme tiredness and lack of energy, tingly fingers and toes, the list goes on. So I slept.
I woke up in time to see the flight attendant walk down the isle carrying everyone’s empty water cups. How I craved water then. More interesting and captivating at the time was that I could see in front of the plane! The pilot had turned on a camera underneath the plane so we could see all the mountains and rivers below. Everything looked so green until I looked out of the window. Brown. Not a lot of rain this year at the right time so none of the green things were able to develop properly.
Soon enough we were there! I would have been much more excited had I not felt like an almost lifeless form, one still with enough life in him to wait at the baggage pickup before shuffling over to the awaiting van. I couldn’t wait to find a pillow to lay my head on! The trip from the airport to the hotel took much longer than I would have liked. I was grateful for the new road built which shortened the trip from 100km to 60km. Still, the new road very quickly turned into the old bad road. When your head hits the roof more than once you know the road is bad. I shouldn’t have sat in the back. Nausea was one of the side effects of the drug and this didn’t help.
Things were looking up for me once I took a 4-hour nap at the hotel. For supper we ventured across the street to eat because we were all to weak to go much further. We ended up at a bar/restaurant. I thought it best not to have alcohol due to my slight reaction to the anti-altitude drugs and the altitude itself. I compromised by drinking my ice tea out of a shot glass. We ordered a light Tibetan meal to accompany our drink. Noodles, yak curry with rice, and cucumbers. The food was probably more of a Chinese/Tibetan fusion, but tasty just the same. Following dinner two of the waitresses sang two Tibetan songs for us. One was about love, and the other about a father passing on. Personalized entertainment is the best. Though sleep is better, at least it was then, so that’s what I did. Slept.
Brading, The Experience opened as The Brading Waxworks, entertained visitors with its quirky exhibits and displays for 45 years from 1965 to 2010. The museum was in the Old Rectory Mansion, which is thought to be the oldest building on the Isle of Wight.
Falling visitor numbers, increased costs of running the site, and maintenance of the site were all factors in its sad demise. Closure for the last time came on 3rd January 2010, with the taxidermy exhbitis, historical artefacts and vehicles being auctioned off in April that year,
I visited the waxworks at least three times and personally was very sad to hear it had closed.
This past week I got to attend The Ajax Experience conference in Boston, MA. The Ajax Experience had a West Coast venue in San Francisco, CA earlier in the year, which I also got to attend. Outside of being a Denverite in Boston during the World Series, the conference was fantastic. TechTarget does a fantastic job of running the event for both the vendors and the attendees.
Another great aspect of the event was that Zach Pinter from EffectiveUI was on hand to help out at the Adobe table. I had a pending jury duty earlier in the week, and wasn't able to get to Boston until Wednesday night. The conference started Wednesday, and Zach was there to answer questions. Not only did he answer the questions, but he also captured many of them in a report.
The Ajax Experience is kept to a small number, which for me generally equates to fewer, but far more productive conversations with community thought leaders and customers. Rey Bango and I talked extensively about his work at Ajaxian (who actually hosts the conference), jQuery and Ext. Rey then got John Resig to help me debug an XMLHttpRequest problem for the JavaScript Share API I'm working on. I also got to plot strategy with Andre Charland and Dave Johnson from Nitobi.
