Oi queridas! Como estão?
Hoje aproveitei o lindo esmalte Fascínio Violeta da Jade para fazer uma gradiente holográfica inspirada neste post da Kelly no blog Esmaltes da Kelly.
Pela primeira vez depois de muito tempo postarei fotos da minha mão esquerda porque achei que a gradiente ficou mais bonita que a outra mão...rs. Mesmo assim também postarei as fotos da mão direita porque gosto delas! Rs (para quem não sabe sou canhota, por isso sempre posto fotos da mão direita).

Another sunset view, taken from my window, during a stormy evening, the sky was really marvelous this time...
37196 stabled to the left. This part of the yard was primarily used for departmental trains. Note in the centre left what was referred to as the “ Kip road” with the line of brake vans on it. The siding was on a slight gradient which allowed the van to be run off just by gravity to be used for unfitted engineers workings. Image taken by Bill Wilder. Shared kind permission of the WRMS.
Kirkjufell, near Grundafjordur, Iceland.
I took this image shortly after 430 or so on one clearish dawn on Snaefellsness peninsula. The lighting was striking for a transition between red and blue across the horizon. The rocky beach on the coast is beautiful in the still morning air. I tried to capture the gradient (enhanced with a colour gradient layer) and the triangles in the scene from rock to reflection to mountain to cloud. Broke the rule of thirds but hey, I wasn't fussed this time.
LMS steam locomotive 46100 Royal Scot at 50 mph on the Severn Valley Railway - twice the normally permitted speed limit. The SVR was granted permission to carry out the speed test in preparation for the newly overhauled Royal Scot working on mainline services. The picture was taken between Bewdley and Kidderminster on the gradient approaching the tunnel at Devil's Spittleful nature reserve.

Waikanae Beach, Gisborne, New Zealand.
The sunset was not to epic, but I loved the way the light was casting the long shadows.
I've seen a lot of nice B/W landscapes lately, so I decided I'd have a go, well, not 100% B/W just a slight desaturation. Do you like the bonus sun rays ;)
I have other shots from this night. On the far left is the stature of 'Young Nick'

About the Young Nick Statue - (seen in the distance)
Young Nick's Head is a headland at the southern end of Poverty Bay in New Zealand's North Island. It is clearly visible from the nearby city of Gisborne.
The promontory was the first land sighted by the crew of Capt. James Cook's ship, Endeavour on October 7, 1769, Cook having promised a reward to the first crewman to sight land. This reward was delivered to 12-year-old Nicholas Young, assistant to the ship's surgeon, in the form of a gallon of rum and the name of the headland.

Looking at a particularly beautiful image of the sun helps show how the lines between science and art can sometimes blur. But there is more to the connection between the two disciplines: science and art techniques are often quite similar, indeed one may inform the other or be improved based on lessons from the other arena. One such case is a technique known as a "gradient filter" – recognizable to many people as an option available on a photo-editing program. Gradients are, in fact, a mathematical description that highlights the places of greatest physical change in space. A gradient filter, in turn, enhances places of contrast, making them all the more obviously different, a useful tool when adjusting photos. Scientists, too, use gradient filters to enhance contrast, using them to accentuate fine structures that might otherwise be lost in the background noise. On the sun, for example, scientists wish to study a phenomenon known as coronal loops, which are giant arcs of solar material constrained to travel along that particular path by the magnetic fields in the sun's atmosphere. Observations of the loops, which can be more or less tangled and complex during different phases of the sun's 11-year activity cycle, can help researchers understand what's happening with the sun's complex magnetic fields, fields that can also power great eruptions on the sun such as solar flares or coronal mass ejections.
The still here shows an unfiltered image from the sun next to one that has been processed using a gradient filter. Note how the coronal loops are sharp and defined, making them all the more easy to study. On the other hand, gradients also make great art.

Not the image I had in mind, in fact, it was facing the opposite direction, but sometimes you just have to go with the conditions you're given. The plan was to photograph The Beehive, a mountain on the eastern side of Mount Desert Island near Sand Beach, as light caught the peak and reflected in the lagoon below. The image was there to be made, but for whatever reason, I didn't feel it was as strong as it could be. Maybe it was the lack of clouds in the sky or lack of water for the reflection, but I just wasn't feeling it. In any case, the light behind me, and particularly the gradient of color, was too good to pass up. I quickly found a composition, choosing a low angle to add depth and show some of the character of the area, all while the color intensified... and just before another photographer stepped in frame in the gap between the hillside and grasses in the distance.
Thoughts on this version ... I added in some contrast to the clear sky in this version. First time really attempting this so feedback appreciated for ways to possible improve. Original mono processed shot below.
Oregon Coast (Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area)
Once again, sometimes you just have to keep your eyes open and be ready for the proper occasion. This shot has been taken five minutes from home. It's a secret spot, so don't tell anyone... ;)
Are you alive ? Most likely if you're reading this, but are you truly experiencing it to the fullest ? take a deep breath, think about it.
Maybe an hour after sunset the sky was still light in the west. There was a storm approaching which made part of the sky very dark. I was hoping to catch lightening in the distance when it started getting closer. I took a couple photos and then fled.
I cleaned out some small bottles of shower gel the other day. Came up with this little idea last night. Different amounts of blue food dye in bottles.
Modéstia parte acho que de todas as unhas que eu fiz na vida essa foi a mais linda!
Usei:
Quase para sempre - Avon
Sweet Dream - Capricho
Estilosa - Lorrac
Branco para carimbo - Blant
Plaquinha M57-1
Extra brilho - Argento (não mancha o carimbo)
Ficou lindo demais!
A foto num tá aquelas coisas porque o dia tá super escuro hoje, mas pessoalmente tá muito lindo! Espero que vcs gostem tanto quanto eu.
