L'actualité locale donne songe à de nombreuses tracasseries administratives...

Ah là là ! Les soucis et la paperasse, un avant-goût de la damnation administrative pour les petits commerçants. :-))

I'm always looking for interaction shots. So I was excited when I saw these two Northern Harriers playing - a bit of drama in the sky.

Yesterdays moon shot was taken on the drive back from Steart looking for Short-eared Owls - we saw two of these glorious birds however each bird seemed to have very little time to itself without getting persistent hassle from the crows in the area. One bird made it's way over to hunt the eastern bank of the Parrett and it may be worth spending time there too. I found this female/juvenile merlin perched on the fence in magical light and took a few shots. It was a long way of so there's not so much detail in the bird but you may get a feel for the place and time of day.

When I'm there, sometimes I'm worried about just getting the shot, about whether I brought the right filter, or whether I'll be hassled. It can be a tense time, especially before you feel more at home.

This was taken at the first or second location at the magical Sink House. I was still unsure of my surroundings and the grass was incredibly wet. It was an uncomfortable situation all around.

If I had a better handle on exactly what I was shooting, I would have spent more time in composing the various angles and lines of the house. But even this photo holds a bit of that. Some part of my tiny reptilian brain saw the angles and mutter, "oh pretty!" long before the rest of my brain caught up.

What caught my attention was showing the old windmill and making sure there were some defined grasses in foucs. I couldn't wait long because that cloud wasn't going to stick around forever.

But that early morning light was just beautifully distracting. That's why we're there, right? That's what we tell ourselves. "Look at the light! Ohhh the light!" and before we know it, all we care about is light. But there's so much more to photography than light.

I'm not unhappy with this photo (though my use of the 90mm lens was lazy - I should have used the 135mm and backed up - but the wet grasses and my delicate little feet - just dumb of me), but it's interesting to get home, develop it and then see what could have been.

It's like arguing. You always think of the best comeback after you leave.

“Avoir l’esprit d’escalier” apparently. Your mileage may vary.

Clemome hassleriana.

Dite " Fleur Araignée".

hassled by a crow, so took the opportunity for a spin when the crow left to go get something to eat.She saw the crow return so she quickly came back to the nest.

Dora came to hassle me in the study. She jumps up on to my desk and investigates the mouse cable. She has already wrecked one.

When an APC isn't necessary but armour still is, the CDU deploys Wolverines. With armour sufficient against small arms and light anti-armour fire, it can get a soldier from A to B without much hassle, and can even act as a stand-in for an IFV with its dual 5.56 (7.62 for FH variant) TATO machineguns.

This summer I was enjoying my very fist can of Focal Banger in Burlington, VT with a bud, when I looked outside and noticed this sky & sunset happening over Lake Champlain. I quickly abandoned both my beer and bud to run (like REALLY run) down the hill from the center of town to Waterfront Park, so that I could snap a shot or two before losing the light.

I made it just in time, out of breath and amused by all of the strange looks I received. It had been a particularly challenging day and everything about the experience felt really epic and symbolic. It was a really nice moment.

This photo was such a hassle! Not the taking photo part, but the editing! Picmonkey doesn't have Gooify which I always used for the smize on my doll photos, but now that they don't have it, I had to do it on Google+ but Google+ freaking shrink your photo's! D:< So I had to go on the edit and print screen it into 3 different sections and form them together using paint. Such a hassle!

I'm hoping Ribbet will have gooify. If they don't, I'll be annoyed beyond belief. What does everyone else use to get the smize on your photos?

Anyways, I hope you like it! I went for a high-fashion editorial twist to this theme. :)

Myself & a friend are being hassled by a guy here. He was, up until now attacking my friend, but now he has started to attack me. I have had a year from hell & things are getting worse & rubbish like this I just don't need:

www.flickr.com/photos/28691202@N03/

I have used the report abuse button countless times & nothing has happened. This guys IP address needs to be blocked or something. He is spamming people with comments from this user id & also this 1:

These are also all the same person:

What happened to people only being allowed to have 1 flickr account? & not using it for comercial gains? How can things like this be constantly be let go by flickr bosses? I am wondering am I the only one who has found flickr bosses very lax of late? Is it any wonder peoples shots are being stolen & sold left right & center?

I wonder is there anyone of you out there with any ideas on how to deal with this guy? Also if any of you get comments from him just block him. His intelligence level isn't very high & he thinks this is fun.

View On Black

The Big Apple

This was taken on the very first night of my NY trip (well second really if you're squeamish and don't want to discount the night I arrived there)! I was looking for a vantage point to take some pictures of the Gotham city and came across a gentleman with a 5D Mk II and tripod. Right away I knew he was my GPS! I followed him, and wallah got to this amazing spot. I don't really know the name of this place, but I believe this is one of the best locations to get a grand view of the city! I took a few shots and was fairly happy with the outcomes. But the night was only starting to get unforgettable, as soon afterward I'd meet some of the most amazing folks (who would then treat me dinner). Trust me that's not why I consider them so amazing :)

Wicked day with MR-g at the most famous St johns!

Great all day explore with no hassle!!

Hassler was a Swiss-American surveyor who is considered the forefather of NOAA. Wikipedia. Shot taken at the ferry terminal in Astoria, Queens.

A shot from my upcoming short movie called HASSLE, to be shot on locations in Russia, Finland, Norway. Keeping fingers crossed

I shot this earlier this year in Canary Wharf on an evening where I was less likely to be hassled by security guards.

I tried to shoot this wide with a Sony 20mm f1.8 lens as far back as I could without tripping over tables and chairs behind me. It still doesn't seem far back enough and to remedy this, I'm going back next month with a Sony 14mm G Master to get it all in!

These stairs lead you from ground level to a view beyond belief.

The previous church on the site was built in the Middle Ages and demolished in 1878. The current church was built in 1878–1879 according to drawings by architect Albert Törnqvist (1819-1898). In addition to a number of civil buildings, Törnqvist designed 29 churches.

The church is a listed building (Swedish: kyrkligt kulturminne), protected by law. It is situated in Mariestad municipality and belongs to Lyrestad parish in Skara diocese.

A Jimbo snakes down the 10th sub just outside of Missoula with pieces of a partially scrapped rail grinder in tow. The Loram grinder had been sitting in Sandpoint for years without any maintenance, and finally it was decided to scrap it. I guess the MRL came in and offered to buy some tanks and the caboose from the train to be rebuilt into a firefighting train.

Completely unrelated, I shouldn't have this photograph. Our trip was planned to end the Tuesday of this week, but with bad weather our Denver-Milwaukee flight was cancelled. After trying to reschedule a few times and getting flights cancelled again, I did a few quick searches just for fun for flights out of Missoula. They had one for a good price on Saturday to get us home, and also give us a few more days in God's country. Tom and I decided to go for it and after some angry calls from our girlfriends, we were in the air northbound again. It was awesome to make this work out, as shooting this Jimbo and chasing the gas this afternoon was totally worth the hassle.

Pelicans are a genus of large water birds that make up the family Pelecanidae. They are characterised by a long beak and a large throat pouch used for catching prey and draining water from the scooped-up contents before swallowing. They have predominantly pale plumage, the exceptions being the brown and Peruvian pelicans. The bills, pouches, and bare facial skin of all species become brightly coloured before the breeding season. The eight living pelican species have a patchy global distribution, ranging latitudinally from the tropics to the temperate zone, though they are absent from interior South America and from polar regions and the open ocean. Pelicans frequent inland and coastal waters, where they feed principally on fish, catching them at or near the water surface. They are gregarious birds, travelling in flocks, hunting cooperatively, and breeding colonially. Four white-plumaged species tend to nest on the ground, and four brown or grey-plumaged species nest mainly in trees. The relationship between pelicans and people has often been contentious. The birds have been persecuted because of their perceived competition with commercial and recreational fishing. Their populations have fallen through habitat destruction, disturbance, and environmental pollution, and three species are of conservation concern. They also have a long history of cultural significance in mythology, and in Christian and heraldic iconography.

The Australian magpie (Gymnorhina tibicen) is a medium-sized black and white passerine bird native to Australia and southern New Guinea. Although once considered to be three separate species, it is now considered to be one, with nine recognised subspecies. A member of the Artamidae, the Australian magpie is placed in its own genus and is most closely related to the black butcherbird (Melloria quoyi). Currawongs have yellow eyes, whereas Magpies have red-brown eyes and Butcherbirds have very dark brown, almost black eyes. It is not, however, closely related to the European magpie, which is a corvid. The adult Australian magpie is a fairly robust bird ranging from 37 to 43 cm in length, with distinctive black and white plumage, gold brown eyes and a solid wedge-shaped bluish-white and black bill. The male and female are similar in appearance, and can be distinguished by differences in back markings. The male has pure white feathers on the back of the head and the female has white blending to grey feathers on the back of the head. With its long legs, the Australian magpie walks rather than waddles or hops and spends much time on the ground. Described as one of Australia's most accomplished songbirds, the Australian magpie has an array of complex vocalisations. It is omnivorous, with the bulk of its varied diet made up of invertebrates. It is generally sedentary and territorial throughout its range. Common and widespread, it has adapted well to human habitation and is a familiar bird of parks, gardens and farmland in Australia and New Guinea. This species is commonly fed by households around the country, but in spring (and occasionally in autumn) a small minority of breeding magpies (almost always males) become aggressive and swoop and attack those who approach their nests. 40794

Do light pollution filter improve astro imaging from moderately light polluted sites?

The theory is clear: These filters help to reduce the sky glow from warm light sources, especially sodium vapor streetlights, but they will not help much against the newer generation of LED lights. While you therefore cannot expect wonders, you should be able achieve better contrast from sites with a fair amount of older streetlights.

On the other hand, I have never done a comparison of what I can achieve with and without one of these filters. While taking my first Milky Way core shots of this season from a Bortle class 4 site, I took the chance and shot same panorama back to back, first without and then with my light pollution filter.

During post processing, I independently processed both panoramas with my normal workflow. The results show that it is possible to correct moderate light pollution during post processing to a big extent, but processing the unfiltered image was more difficult and there still is slightly better contrast in the filtered image.

In the filtered image however, the brightest stars and Jupiter on the very left have slightly more glare and if there is stray light, I have a hard time controlling reflections, as I cannot attach the lens hood with my 150mm filter holder in place.

Another drawback of any filter is that it reduces the light arriving at the sensor. With the light pollution, I lose about halve an f-stop and have to expose about 50% longer. This is not a big problem if you are tracking the sky, but might be a deal breaker if you shoot from a fixed tripod

.

So wat do you think? Are light pollution filters worth the price and hassle?
