featuring photos on Flickr

I had the pleasure to travel to San Francisco this summer with my family. It's such a beautiful city and there are so many wonderful picturesque locations to choose from, truly a photographer's paradise. Since I hadn't been there in 10 years, I decided to reshoot several of the famous landmarks, the Golden Gate Bridge being my main interest as I had never seen it without tons of fog. During the few days I was there, the weather was unseasonably warm and again, thick layers of fog blanketed the bridge nearly every day, almost completely blocking out the sunsets. On the last evening before we had to leave, I decided to make the trek out to Fort Point for one of the many postcard views. Just as I got there, as if on queue, the fog began to lift as the sun went down. I ran (literally) up and down the beach to try and find the best location and fired off several sets. The sunset was amazing... Orange to purple to blue... I had never seen anything quite like it and had a hard time getting back behind the camera as I just wanted to sit there and soak it all in. When I got back home, this was my favorite of the bunch as it really captured the full color gradient of the sunset that had been enhanced by the lifting fog. In addition, I really liked how the last few rays of sunlight poked through and highlighted the trees over on the left, with the one solo tree on top of the hill almost perfectly framed by the bridge arch. The sailboat was a total bonus and couldn't have sailed through at a better time.

About the shot, this is an HDR composed of 9 different exposures to cover the full dynamic range of color in the magnificent sunset as well as the famous red color of the bridge. The longer exposures in the set did a great job of capturing the motion in the waves as they crashed against the rocky shoreline. Once the 9 shots were stitched together, I just did some standard post processing in Photoshop (curves, contrast, sharpening).

Sorry to all my Flickr friends who haven't seen much of me lately. Work has been full of unexpected changes and has taken much of my focus recently. The good news is that I've been out on several shoots over the summer and have at least 20 sets to still sift through and process. I'll post them over the coming weeks. I should be back in full swing and look forward to catching up on my contacts' streams and going through the hundred+ friend requests I've received recently. Please be patient if I don't get to you right away or comment on every image but please know that I enjoy going through everyone's streams and taking time to appreciate all your wonderful work. Hope you all have a fantastic week!

Also, almost forgot, a portion of my portfolio has been featured on the FREE iFolio iPhone application. There are quite a few great artists out there and some awe inspiring work so if you have an iPhone, you can download the app and take the beautiful photos with you in your pocket :-)

For those who watched 1960s US cartoons, this lyric will be a reminder...

Spiderman, Spiderman,

Does whatever a spider can

Spins a web, any size,

Catches thieves just like flies

Look Out!

Here comes the Spiderman.

Skye on the Horizon by jonncrisp

25 2

Taken from the B8021 from Gairloch.

Skye, or the Isle of Skye (/skaɪ/; Scottish Gaelic: An t-Eilean Sgitheanach or Eilean a' Cheò), is the largest and northernmost of the major islands in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland. The island's peninsulas radiate from a mountainous centre dominated by the Cuillin, the rocky slopes of which provide some of the most dramatic mountain scenery in the country. Although it has been suggested that the Gaelic Sgitheanach describes a winged shape there is no definitive agreement as to the name's origins.

The island has been occupied since the Mesolithic period, and its history includes a time of Norse rule and a long period of domination by Clan MacLeod and Clan Donald. The 18th century Jacobite risings led to the breaking up of the clan system and subsequent Clearances that replaced entire communities with sheep farms, some of which also involved forced emigrations to distant lands. Resident numbers declined from over 20,000 in the early 19th century to just under 9,000 by the closing decade of the 20th century. Skye's population increased by 4 per cent between 1991 and 2001. About a third of the residents were Gaelic speakers in 2001, and although their numbers are in decline, this aspect of island culture remains important.

The main industries are tourism, agriculture, fishing and forestry. Skye is part of the Highland Council local government area. The island's largest settlement is Portree, which is also its capital, known for its picturesque harbour. There are links to various nearby islands by ferry and, since 1995, to the mainland by a road bridge. The climate is mild, wet and windy. The abundant wildlife includes the golden eagle, red deer and Atlantic salmon. The local flora are dominated by heather moor, and there are nationally important invertebrate populations on the surrounding sea bed. Skye has provided the locations for various novels and feature films and is celebrated in poetry and song.

Mingo Monster by Doug Lilly

68 12

The feature article in the January 1977 issue of Trains magazine was Jay Potter’s The Monsters of Mingo Junction, which highlighted Conrail’s assignment of its six-axle Alco Centuries to ore service centered around Mingo Junction, Ohio. Although Mingo Junction was well over 300 miles from my home turf, and a little out of my range at the time, it was immediately added to my bucket list. A year and a half later, a phone call from a college buddy who had already graduated ended up being a planning session for a long weekend in Mingo Junction. By August 1978, many of Conrail’s 32 C628’s, 27 C630’s, and 15 C636’s were retired and in dead lines at Collinwood or Altoona, but some still had a little life left. Here one of the largest, a C636, catches some morning sun, while an SD45 lays over two stalls away, Although the big EMD’s initially drew better assignments than the Alco’s, the fuel guzzlers didn’t last much longer than the Centuries.

Santa Maria de Valverde by Andrew Mitchell

41 12

A vastly important site within this featured array of artificial 'caves', and another example featured within the diagram linked below (second right).

The River Ebro 'highway' ebbs and changes direction just 5km away. Modestly moving on its long narrative of silting the Mediterranean sea with mountain grain. And as it turns from the north, the tight fluvial system provides a clean pointer and link with the Atlantic coast. Approaching the great river's source, the river simply holds a valley and hides its future with local modesty. The valley that confluences at the turning point is the (river) 'Arroyo Mardancho', the same river that flows under this monolithic church site. A sacred spring into the Arroyo Mardancho sits under this sites monolith, providing relentless fresh water to this day.

Both the Ebro and the Mardancho can easily and naturally link with the northern passage to the Rio Besaya and the Altlantic coast, and if the Ebro was once conceptualised as a great west/east, then the Mardancho would have been part of its raison d'etre. The Mardancho is also a key route to the Ebro from the CeltIberic hill fort of Mont Bernedo.

Seen by night this site hides its rarity, and some words are required to show that all is not as it first appears:

The tiled roof is a modern addition, and lifts above an outcrop of sandstone, in effect protecting the rock's surface for future generations. The rock outcrop that makes up the exoskeleton for the interior man-made space, is comprehensively covered with monolithic Sarcophage; many linked, some seeming to indicate a family unit, and some of the dimension of infants and children. A further and detached flat rock outcrop - behind this shot and up the slope, continues the theme, with another 20 or so examples of carved Sarcophage - some with trapezoid form, most andromorphic. Todays church is thus under the imprints of ancestors rather than over their memory, which tends to be the Christian tradition. Other examples of man-made spaces under monolithic necropolis do exist (see future posts), and this is not an example of idiosyncratic design, rather another local example from an upstream Ebro theme.

Organic and oblong openings have been sealed, and at times squared into shape, and the inside has lost much of its organic narrative after being 'modernised' with a tightening of edge and form - probably during a Moorish or Visigoth occupation period, so up to the 10th century.

The exterior shape of the monolith has also been walled up to afford it a clean set of lines. The illuminated Romanesque bell tower is built as a different building behind the outcrop, in the way that Italian bell towers can be separate, and in keeping with the site at Santos Justo y Pastor - just five straight km away (see below).

Socket marks show that a porch or lean-to once 'hid' the scale of the interior vaults. These marks and some other step and bench marks are worn in ways that show a use far beyond those of ideas of lone hermits.

Should I give up... by experimien

or should I just keep chasing pavements - thanks Adele for this great song :)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adele_(singer)

"Chasing Pavements" by Adele

I've made up my mind,

Don't need to think it over

If I'm wrong, I am right

Don't need to look no further,

This ain't lust

I know this is love

But, if I tell the world

I'll never say enough

Cos it was not said to you

And that's exactly what I need to do

If I end up with you

[Chorus]

Should I give up,

Or should I just keep chasin' pavements?

Even if it leads nowhere

Or would it be a waste

Even if I knew my place

Should I leave it there

Should I give up,

Or should I just keep chasin' pavements

Even if it leads nowhere

I build myself up

And fly around in circles

Watin' as my heart drops

And my back begins to tingle

Finally, could this be it

[Chorus]

Or should I give up

Or should I just keep chasin' pavements

Even if it leads nowhere

Or would it be a waste

Even if I knew my place

Should I leave it there

Should I give up

Or should I just keep chasin' pavements

Even if it leads nowhere

Or would it be a waste

Even if I knew my place should I leave it there

Should I give up

Or should I just keep on chasin' pavements

Should I just keep no chasin' pavements

Ohh oh

[Chorus]
