Heidens sinterklaas, overal in Europa
Background: in Memphis for work and took the 5DIII, EF 17-40, GP-E2 and Benro tripod for some Beale Street night shots. I got lucky and it was bike night ... didn't know.
For the night shots I was using in-camera HDR, Art Standard and either +1/-1 or +2/-2.
Post was Lr5 moving the needle on shadow detail, vibrance and sprinkle of saturation.
Only issue I had was wishing I had my bike.
I can't tell if the blurry tram adds or takes away from this pic, but I had to work with the light provided so of course the blurry tram tram was intentional

Today I needed a sanity check. Life has changed so dramatically in the last few weeks that it has left my head spinning. I'm a born nester. I guess it's my feminine side trying to assert itself. I can handle just about anything if I can get back to my nest every night. Get out to raise a ruckus and create chaos every day and then fly back to the nest and watch it on the news - that's my idea of the proper life for a man.
Alas, ruckus raising and chaos creation aren't high on my priority list now and I don't have any time for those rolly-coaster rides. However, I do have a treasure trove of images and stories saved up. A huge part of it has never been seen before. For today, I chose a few of my favourites from past posts and gave myself the luxury of an hour to pretend to be an artist. It's one thing that stimulates me without having to leave my temporary desk on a big, round table in front of the couch.
This one is called Buddy. It is one of several images which I had reproduced in large format for sale. I did manage to sell most of them, but I decided to keep the original of this one, since I like it so much. It's a Red and Black Anemonefish (Amphiprion melanopus):
I ran this one through the Photoshop grinder pretty thoroughly to get the nearly cartoon-like look. The fish is still the focal point, but the filter effects changed the Bulb Anemone (Entacmaea quadricolor) into a fantasy foreground.
You first saw these dolphins in Happy Accidents. I see magic in that original image every time I look at it and it seems all the more special because it was a snap shot taken in a one-second window of opportunity. These are the ones which tickle me - the ones that were gifts:
I decided to try to turn it into a rough watercolour.
Both of the following shots first appeared in The Aquarium in My Front Yard. I've put the original references for some of these into links so that you can compare the originals, if you are that hard-up for amusement.
This grumpy little critter is a Freckled Hawkfish (Paracirrhites fosteri):
My goal here was A Grumpy Clown, you know, like Krusty the Clown on The Simpsons. I think that my have nearly achieved it.
This one from the same post, of a trio of Anthea, I'm titling, Are You Talkin' to US?
They also seem a little grumpy, though not so tough.
Of the lot, this one I like best. It took the most time to get it right. A click to enlarge it will be more rewarding.:
I'm calling it Refuge. Maybe that has to do with my mood. It is an evening view across the harbour from our house in Madang. I don't know when I will see it again.
Eunie is better now that she began taking the powerful anti-inflammatory which she mistakenly stopped the day after the ERCP. I am going to have to monitor her medications - yet another something which I've never had to do before.
I'm learning a lot of new stuff. None of which I ever wanted to know. If you're going to win at poker, you have to learn to play the cards.

Bath is a city in the ceremonial county of Somerset in the south west of England. It is situated 97 miles (156 km) west of London and 13 miles (21 km) south-east of Bristol. The population of the city is 83,992. It was granted city status by Royal Charter by Queen Elizabeth I in 1590, and was made a county borough in 1889 which gave it administrative independence from its county, Somerset. The city became part of Avon when that county was created in 1974. Since 1996, when Avon was abolished, Bath has been the principal centre of the unitary authority of Bath and North East Somerset (B&NES).
The city was first established as a spa with the Latin name, Aquae Sulis ("the waters of Sulis") by the Romans in AD 43, although verbal tradition suggests that Bath was known before then. They built baths and a temple on the surrounding hills of Bath in the valley of the River Avon around hot springs. Edgar was crowned king of England at Bath Abbey in 973. Much later, it became popular as a spa town during the Georgian era, which led to a major expansion that left a heritage of exemplary Georgian architecture crafted from Bath Stone.
The City of Bath was inscribed as a World Heritage Site in 1987. The city has a variety of theatres, museums, and other cultural and sporting venues, which have helped to make it a major centre for tourism, with over one million staying visitors and 3.8 million day visitors to the city each year. The city has two universities and several schools and colleges. There is a large service sector, and growing information and communication technologies and creative industries, providing employment for the population of Bath and the surrounding area.
Gah! I clearly accidentally turned on HDR Art mode when taking this picture!
