If you feel a little down you should try this:
put your camera on the floor. Switch off the flash. Set 2sec autotimer. Jump!
And see what happens!
(Works as well if you only want to heat up a little bit)
added to "Cream of the crop" as personal favorit
Once I bought a series of Penguin Pocket Books. One of them was a Poem by Robert Frost where he talked about how we "bury the living dead". We take trees, cut them down, then rebury them and strings go across our sky, like a guitar.
Why does this bother me so damn much?
I pretty much had most of the Center to myself last night. Not that I was after social shots, the fog was pretty enough.
Photography is not prohibited inside Saint Isaac's Cathedral, a perfect opportunity for some fisheye shots!
Temps are dropping very quickly. Ice peppers the river and the air is full of muggs. A blanket of fog covers the area and makes the upper floors vanish.
I am sending ludicriously expensive, handmade, hand-calligraphed Christmas cards this year using materials from Paper source and a bokeh Christmas tree photo of mine.
However, I realize that I've acquired a lot of Jewish friends over the past year or two, and so I think I will go back and buy silver and blue materials, and will place this photo on the front. I think I might end up liking them even better, as I did most Hanukkah merchandise when I was a kid.
Off the Towanda attraction is a perfect tribute to the great state of Illinois: the Illinois State Flag, a Route 66 flag and the U.S. Flag.

We are going in the cable car on the Teide volcano :)
Mount Teide is a volcano on Tenerife in the Canary Islands, Spain. Its 3718-metre summit is the highest point in Spain and the highest point above sea level in the islands of the Atlantic. Teide is an active volcano: its most recent eruption occurred in 1909 from the El Chinyero vent on the northwestern Santiago rift. The volcano and its surroundings, including the whole of the Las Canadas caldera, are protected in the Teide National Park, which has an area of 18,900 hectares (47,000 acres) and was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO on June 28, 2007. A cable car goes from the roadside at 2,356 m (7,730 ft) most of the way to the summit, reaching 3,555 m (11,663 ft), carrying up to 38 passengers (34 in a high wind) and taking eight minutes to reach the summit. Access to the summit itself is restricted, a free permit is required to climb the last 200 m. Numbers are normally restricted to 200 per day. Because of the altitude, the air is significantly thinner than at sea level. This can cause people (especially with heart or lung conditions) to become light-headed or dizzy, to develop altitude sickness, and in extreme cases to lose consciousness. The only treatment is to return to lower altitudes and acclimatise. Teide is the most visited natural wonder of Spain.

Wjeżdżamy kolejką linową na wulkan Teide :)
Pico del Teide – szczyt wulkaniczny położony na wyspie Teneryfie (Wyspy Kanaryjskie). Szczyt ten o wysokości 3718 m n.p.m. i wysokości od dna morza około 7500 metrów jest najwyższym szczytem w Hiszpanii i najwyższym szczytem na jakiejkolwiek atlantyckiej wyspie. Jest to typowy stratowulkan. Obecnie Teide jest wciąż uważany za czynny wulkan, ostatnią aktywność notowano w 1909 roku. Ważniejsze erupcje następowały też w latach 1704, 1705 i 1706. Pod szczyt wulkanu można wjechać kolejką linową Teleférico del Teide, która ma swój początek na wysokości 2356 m, a stacja końcowa znajduje się na wysokości 3555 m. Wejście na wierzchołek główny wymaga uzyskania darmowego zezwolenia, które można otrzymać m.in. poprzez stronę internetową parku. Jednakże wejście na szczyt może być obciążeniem dla osób z chorobami serca, nadciśnieniem lub problemami z oddychaniem. Rozrzedzone powietrze i mniejsza zawartość tlenu jest tam mniej lub bardziej odczuwalna (przyspieszony oddech, szybsze męczenie się, zatykanie uszu, zawroty głowy). Stożek wulkanu wraz z ogromną kalderą o średnicy do 15 km i obwodzie około 40 km oraz otaczającą je równiną, objęty jest od 1954 roku ochroną w ramach Parku Narodowego Teide. Park zajmuje 18 900 ha powierzchni, co czyni go piątym co do wielkości parkiem narodowym w Hiszpanii. W 2007 roku park wpisano na listę światowego dziedzictwa UNESCO.

Looking upwards through a bright pink sun parasol.
It's an enormous treat to use a parasol instead of an umbrella, England has had such a miserable summer so far, so the sunshine is a very welcome treat.
I spied this glamorous boy at a local nursery. It was all I could do not to tuck him under my shirt and bring him home!
Salso la nebbia, la notte, le linee. Come mettere in crisi la percezione mettendo una linea forte al centro. E' una foto o sono 2?

7DWF Crazy Tuesday Theme: Why do you take pictures?
I took this whilst out with my photography group. We decided not to cancel this outing, even though it was raining a lot (we're a bit crazy like that). By the end, I had a plastic bag over my camera and a coffee cup holder around the lens. Both still got soaking wet and I thought my camera would die after 3 hours in the rain. Good times, good friends, moments worth remembering. Even though it doesn't always feel like it, there are always magic moments worth recording - photograph is memory. :-)
