Highlight Towers - Munich - Germany
The Highlight Towers are also called "the northern gate", because the towers are located at the end of Highway Nr. 9 (Berlin - Munich).
The Highlight Towers are twin office towers located in the the Parkstadt Schwabing area of Munich. With a height of 126m resp. 113m they belong to the tallest buildings in Munich.
The towers are connected by two glass/steel bridges, a double bridge at the 9th/10th floor and a single bridge at the 20th floor. Design by Murphy/Jahn (Chicago, USA).

A Green heron feeding in the canal, along the tow path. This particular area is under a tree canopy, creating some great light effects. Wildwood lake, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
The new growth found on the ends of coniferous trees, is often a much lighter hue of green than its older sibling. Add a little highlight to that same branch and the color stands out even more.

A lovely sunrise this morning but unable to rush out due to cracked ribs after a heavy fall on the ice onto my back last Monday which has all but laid me up.
This Eurasian whimbrel (numenius phaeopus) was highlighted by a narrow shaft of sunshine from a mainly grey sky. The effect was to make the bird's plumage appear a lighter shade of brown. Photographed near Belle Mare, in Mauritius.
Continuing my look back over the last year and posting some of the shots that didn't make it first time around. Part 4: Autumn
No Review of the year could be complete without yet another shot of the fabulous Red Backed Shrike that graced Newhaven for 12 days from 21 September. What an amazing bird, surely a feature in the 2016 highlights of every Sussex birdwatcher.

Late afternoon at Hambersham is always a dramatic spot especially in Fall as late afternoon sun highlights the trees and exhaust of a southbound coal train trying to climb Duff Mountain.
Shooting with the Fuji X I can imitate the Nikon photo very closely but chose to do what Fuji X does best: be creative. I started with an in camera processed JPEG image, Softened the highlights & shadows. then ran it through photoshop for a different look: this is the result
While Fuji will never replace Nikon, [but would like Nikon to be more like Fuji X]. It is a viable camera that is easy & fun to use and takes quality photos.
I shot this about an hour earlier than the original, so the light is a bit stronger, and had to compensate by under exposing by about 1 to 2 stops to bring highlights into about zone 6 /7. Then bring up the shadows & blacks in Lightroom.
I have given serious thought to trading in my Nikon gear for a Fuji XT4. WE will see.
Another luxury British car that has come to the end of its road....
This one was sitting on top of another car, hence the easy access to a low POV!

HMM!
There is no sin in being on the pathway; the spiritualists are wrong. But there is a sin in loving our road instead of our home; the materialists are wrong. There is no sin in being on the road, in being corporeal, in being finite, in being homo viator, in having responsibility for things outside, below, and now; there is only sin in settling for the lesser, and not letting it awaken an appetite for the greater.
