Anything else you're interested in is not going to happen if you can't breathe the air and drink the water. Don't sit this one out. Do something.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo❤️ ❤️
I used to have a great view of the sunset from my balcony, but after moving homes I need to actually get out of the house in order to take decent photos of the sunset. This has quickly become my favorite spot... 10 minutes by bike from my home (so I really can't complain :-)).
I've been experimenting with some long exposure shots at the lake, but the time in which the sunset is brightly colourful is a bit short for actually changing the settings, plus the darkness doesn't really help.
Practice will hopefully help, until then I'll keep posting some more imperfect shots.
Have a great weekend everybody!
Beads on black. Experimenting to bring up enough light, but not to blow the highlights.
My sister brought some of these beads from Kenya. She enjoyed bartering for them, she said.
I've not shot into the evening sun so directly before, but I did want to see if I could capture the hay and dust stirred up by our neighbor's tractor.
My husband walked down the lane after I began, and weighed in today: he would have shot a more perpendicular angle with fewer or no sun flares, yet still capturing the light. I mention this so that you'll know I'm open to suggestions. (Previous photo link in first comment.)

Thanks for looking and for your fun comments. I think Flickr tagged this one well: "surreal" ;)
Experiments with trying to backlight the cabbage leaves. I don't like how tightly cropped the image is but my board was my limiting size. I might try again with a more neutral palette. Happy I tried something new, playing helps my mood. Do you post your fails as well as your successes? I like sharing so others know not everything is successful but you try again another day.
In the boundless landscape of pixel world, magic thrives, unconstrained by the limitations of reality. It is a realm where the impossible becomes possible. Aardvark always sprinkle a little bit of that magic into our world, coloring the experiences with wonder and possibility.
Owls and bears seem to have intertwined their destinies, a glimpse into a world where nature’s experiments might lead to the emergence of these charming, fantastical creations...

Perhaps you will understand that this was initially a dandelion photo.
I'm liking this, however I want to see if can acheive it on paper with oils or tea stain or something... we'll see, nothing like experimenting! :)
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️
I've posted shots before of this fountain near me. It's on until 9pm from May to September, and to depict photographically the flow of the water, I've had to shoot it either at night
or at twilight
because I just couldn't get a long enough exposure during the day to capture the flow, not even at f/36!
So this time I tried it with my new 10-stop ND filter, and I like how it came out. I like being able to capture the fountain's flow during broad daylight (this was a 15-second exposure at f/25), and compared to the evening or night shots it's less contrast-y and yet the light is still good. So I think I'm going to stick with this filter for my daytime long-exposure shots.
Actually I want to do some experiment with candle. Suddenly, an idea has been popped up in my mind! Then I did this and took the shoot. It took a lot of time to capture this photo. I didn't get the perfect shot. Finally I captured it.

This is a photo of a curl of smoke from incense I was burning last night.
(Yes, I know everyone was doing this a year or more ago. I just got around to it. :) )
Happy Bokeh Wednesday
Thank you for taken your time to visit me, comments or faves are always much appreciated!

Winkworth Arboretum, near Hascombe in Surrey, is always a lovely place to visit – but in autumn it’s absolutely spectacular.
This magnificent land area hosts more than 1,000 species of tree and shrub, and covers some 95 acres (38 hectares). It’s the result of one man’s vision and passion: Dr Wilfrid Fox, one of Britain's leading dermatologist who bought the land next to his house in 1937.
This was the perfect site for him to experiment with planting styles and different tree species, and wanting to preserve his work for future generaions he donated Winkworth to the National Trust in 1952, ten years before he died.
“It now provides an excellent showcase for what Dr Fox described as ‘using plants to paint a picture’”, says the Trust. Some picture!
