Explore/Interestingness # 246 January 12, 2013
Zen is the Japanese variant of Chán, a school of Mahayana Buddhism which strongly emphasizes dhyana c.q. concentration-meditation. This gives insight into ones true nature, or the emptiness of inherent existence, which opens the way to a liberated way of living.:credit-wikipedia

Do not note on my images.
Merry christmas and happy new year! Let's hope the new year of 2012 will be favorable for photography and exploring of nature. Ofcourse couple of volcanoes and unexpected adventures would be great too ;-)
This is a self-portrait inside a recently formed ice cave in the glaciers on the south coast of Iceland. Entering this cave is only possible in a freezing period due to the "floor" is actually a small lagoon.

Savernake Forest | Marlborough | Wiltshire
[EXPLORED] 25th October #56: I am really pleased to have this image included in EXPLORE (My 6th EXPLORE to-date). Thanks for all the faves and nice comments. I really appreciate the support and welcome any constructive critique, while I continue to grow and develop my skills as a landscape photographer.
I went on a lovely walk around Savernake Forest this afternoon with my family. Autumn is most certainly upon us. I love this time of year, with the stunning colours nature dishes up for us.
Taking The Shot:
Hand-held using auto-ISO. I'm really impressed with how the D610 handles high ISOs! Barely any visible noise, even when zoomed right in!
Background:
Savernake Forest is a surviving remnant of one of Wiltshire's ancient 'Royal Forests' much beloved by Norman kings. Today the forest is leased to the Forestry Commission and access is via many paths and tracks. It remains a place of mystery and imagination and an important habitat for a number of wild birds, plants and animals.
Location:
(67/365) I was busy washing up when I noticed a Dung fly caught in a cobweb outside the kitchen window. Quick as a flash the spider pounced on the fly & it was a wrap. I popped outside to get the photo. View Large to see the black dog hair! Poor spider, those dog hairs get everywhere. HWW x 3 and HBBBT!
This photo was taken at Thanga Campsite on Bali Pass Trek. Thanga campsite provides excellent view of Garhwal Himalayan peaks such as Swargarohini, Black Peak etc. in Bandarpunch range.

I have some boat cruising videos here youtu.be/AXq1iSp_YDw
on my You Tube Channel. You will probably enjoy watching them.
Barbie the barefoot Rebel biker-chick leaving it all behind and heading out to explore the universe on her Harley Davidson motorcycle.
Old soldiers never die they only fade away.
But the young ones do not die, no they are cut down instead.
And someone pulled the trigger, gave the order, held the sword,
And some one wrote the advert in the paper that they read.
Thy will be done,
But you won't get your hands on my son.
You can wait till kingdom come.

I didn't do much about this picture when I posted it in 2007... I ran across it today looking for something for my blog and had a rush of emotions. It was a long story... you can visit it at www.physicianmusician.com if you'd like...
This morning woke up to something unusual ice all over everything thing in the woods..It was like a dream really something that doesn't happen to often here in East Texas ..I bundled up and took out to see this beautiful ice..It was so beautiful with the ice all over the trees and just about everything you could see..I was cold but had a wonderful time looking at the beauty of it . Even though the plum tree blooms were covered in ice and the thought of no plums you could not help to be in the moment of this different place and beauty..I was all inspired and the cold was secondary as I explored this ice world

Liffey Head bog complex Wicklow
This was taken in 2008 when I had just bought my first DSLR but it did not originally look much like this - shot on auto, jpeg, no real composition, washed out colour.
It has been cropped and re-processed in photoshop (colour, light, de-noise and a few other things) and finally run through RNI Film app on iPhone to have a Technicolor look applied to it.
It is not an image that will appeal to many I suspect but I really like its simplicity in capturing Wicklow in winter - iron hard ground and glacial blue skies.
