What's up everyone. After 2 weeks I've finally found the time to do some photo processing. I've taken a bunch of photos over this break and will be making a full return. I've got a lot of Flickr to catch up on this coming weekend. Hope everyone had a great new year and I'm looking forward to seeing all the photos I've missed.
This was taken on a hike at Koko Head Crater in Hawaii Kai. It's a hike on an abandoned rail track going straight up the side of this mountain. The railway and bunkers on the peak were used during WW2 but now rest in an abandoned state of decay. This is a view of Hawaii Kai from the very top about 20 minutes before sunset. Hiking this trail helped me realize how out of shape I was :) New years resolution do more hikes...
First Vertorama of the year for me. bottom and top made from 7 exposures in photomatix. Blended the -3 exposure back onto parts of the sunset sky. Manually stitched both sections, curves, saturation, unsharp mask, and noise ninja.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Shot back in May right before I lost my way and set the camera aside. What is it about bald eagles that stirs such an emotional response from so many of us?

Blueberries is very healthy all the time :-)
Here we enter the macro world with a bokeh capture of an amarican blueberry in Norway.
Wikipedia:
Blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum) are perennial flowering plants with indigo-colored berries. They are classified in the section Cyanococcus within the genus Vaccinium. Vaccinium also includes cranberries, bilberries and grouseberries. Commercial "blueberries" are native to North America, and the "highbush" varieties were not introduced into Europe until the 1930s.
Blueberries are usually prostrate shrubs that can vary in size from 10 centimeters (3.9 in) to 4 meters (13 ft) in height. In the commercial production of blueberries, the smaller species are known as "lowbush blueberries" (synonymous with "wild"), while the larger species are known as "highbush blueberries".
The leaves can be either deciduous or evergreen, ovate to lanceolate, and 1–8 cm (0.39–3.15 in) long and 0.5–3.5 cm (0.20–1.38 in) broad. The flowers are bell-shaped, white, pale pink or red, sometimes tinged greenish. The fruit is a berry 5–16 millimeters (0.20–0.63 in) in diameter with a flared crown at the end; they are pale greenish at first, then reddish-purple, and finally dark purple when ripe. They are covered in a protective coating of powdery epicuticular wax, colloquially known as the "bloom". They have a sweet taste when mature, with variable acidity. Blueberry bushes typically bear fruit in the middle of the growing season: fruiting times are affected by local conditions such as altitude and latitude, so the peak of the crop, in the northern hemisphere, can vary from May to August.
Alone in winter.
The whole time seems to have been white on white, cold, sole. There's more to come... again.
Stay Warm!
Hey, Thanks Everyone -I wasn't aware this one had taken off so well. I think we've all had so much of this winter, that it shows the drear we all feel. Hang in there!

UPDATE: I honestly did not expect this photo to be added to Flickr’s “Explore” page (No. 395 out of 500 on January 15, 2022). What a pleasant surprise! Thank you for checking out my photos. 😁
I truly do not know if this is a Tremella fungus or not. I found a bunch of mushroom spores growing under one of our outside Christmas decorations. Google image search thinks this is a type of Tremella fungus but I think it is growing next to a Parasol or Shaggy Parasol mushroom through the mulch we have in our front yard.
Can these two species grow next to one another?
This is a 1:1 macro shot at an ƒ/6.3 with a Lume Cube helping to lighten up the edges a bit.
An older photo from Costume Con 40 (April 2022). This costume struck me as being in the "Regency Era" and rousse is the feminine French word for "redhead." I know that this is not very original on my part but I don't know who the costumer is nor how to credit her so I came up with the most descriptive title I could.
I used Nik Software's Analog Efex Pro - Wet Plate to mimic elements of an older style photograph (not exactly a Daguerrotype but has some similarities).
UPDATE: Wow!! I did not expect this image to make it on to Flickr's Explore page! Thank you *so* much everybody for the kind & positive comments and faves!
