I want flatlands

I never cared about money and all its friends

I want flatlands

I want flatlands

I don't want precious stones

I never cared about anything you've ever owned

I want flatlands

I want simplicity

The west bank of the River Nene as it completes its journey to the sea outside Sutton Bridge. Very flat man-made country which will disappear again under the water one day, possibly in our lifetimes.

Dear Flatlanders and Flat-earthers, beware! A recent scientific expedition to Earth's outer edge, "The Great Beyond", has found an alarming change in the cohesion of our planet's inner core and its upper and lower outer layers, the magma and the ocean layers. They start peeling off! Even worse, Earth stands at a 90-degree angle above the Sun at the moment. What would happen if both the ocean and the magma layers started dripping onto the Sun? Would the dreaded "Great Sunshine" happen again? The last time this happened, millions of years ago, the dinosaurs had left our beloved Flat Earth, stating they were looking for a safer "3D planet". Whatever that was...

 

OK, so inspiration came late, but it finally came at the last minute. Whatever subject I tried for "Layers", I didn't like the outcome. I couldn't make my original idea work (the lens "cap" of an old point-and-shoot camera: those plastic blades that open when you switch the camera on, and that are constructed like layers), because I couldn't get the illumination right. I photographed a measuring tape – nice, so I'll keep that in mind for another theme. But it wasn't what I had imagined, which was something colourful and sci-fi-themed.

 

The rescue came from the most unlikely item possible: one of my makeshift reflectors, a cardboard foodboard coated with a thin foil of sorts, silver-coloured on one side, gold-coloured on the other. And at its rounded edges, the foil had started to peel off. Even better: The cardboard itself is made of layers as well.

 

At first, I didn't quite know where I was heading with it, but when I illuminated the shiny foil with blue light from above, and some red light from the left, the idea started to form (and I quite bluntly mixed up Edwin Abbott Abbott's/A. Square's novel Flatland with the "Flat Earth" theory).

 

Focus stacking (in-camera but as usual, I combined the 15 images in Helicon Focus, method A, R21, S4) yielded the best results and the most pleasant balance between sharpness and blur.

 

A late HMM, Everyone!

My first attempt with extended exposure time (using a ND1000 filter)

An MLW RS-18u and an RS-23 head north out of Saint-Pie, Quebec through the healthy farmlands toward Saint-Hyacinthe.

Happy MLW Monday!

A foggy day in the flat land near my home town Ferrara. Miles of flat land, with three and ancient farmhouses.

Wimmera farming country...no rain in those clouds

Especially in the north of the Netherlands, the landscape is very flat. Outside towns or villages, you can often see the horizon all around you.

The expanse of Utah’s Bonneville Salt Flats stretches into the distance.

Rural countryside of the Netherlands.

 

Thanks for all the faves and comments, even for just taking the time to view my photo's, much appreciated.

The fields just look so bare after the crops have been cut .
