a montagna avanza abbagliante
nuvole volano sopra
le stelle si spengono a poco
oscuri il sole e tutto il cielo
splendore i monti sopra
poi il giorno
il sole si riempie sale rosa a poco
luce nella luce
maestoso
This wonderful building was designed by one of the most prominent architectural firms in Philadelphia in the early 1900s, McKim, Mead, and White along with Frank Furness, another prominent architect of the time. The building was completed in 1931, one hundred years after Stephen Girard. After completion the building was used as the Girard Trust Company Building as a part of Stephen Girard's banking company. Stephen Girard is renowned for personally saving the United States economy during the War of 1812.
Today, the building is the location of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. The well-known restaurant 10 Arts is located here. As well as the Richel D'Ambra Spa & Salon. I love the old Greek-inspired architecture of Philadelphia!

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruabon_Moors
Ruabon Moors are an area of upland moorland in Wales to the west of Ruabon and Wrexham. They lie partly within Wrexham county borough and partly within Denbighshire.
In the northern part of the moors are the areas known as Minera Mountain and Esclusham Mountain. Further south are Ruabon Mountain and Eglwyseg Mountain. In the west the moors reach their greatest height at Cyrn-y-Brain,565 metres (1,854 ft) above sea level.
To the north and north-east, the moors are bounded by Minera Limeworks and the Clywedog valley. In the east they slope down to the villages of Rhosllannerchrugog and Ruabon. There are several small reservoirs in this area. At the southern edge of the moors the cliffs of Eglwyseg Rocks overlook the River Dee and the Vale of Llangollen. On the western side there are more cliffs at World's End while the Horseshoe Pass separates the moors from Llantysilio Mountain. Llandegla Forest, a large conifer plantation, covers the north-western side.
Ruabon Moors are part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest and hold a wide variety of plant and animal life. Large parts of the moors are covered with heather. Where there are outcrops of limestone on the surface a number of scarce plants can be found such as prickly sedge, dark red helleborine and rigid buckler-fern.
The moors are managed for red grouse shooting. Huge numbers were shot in the past (an average of 4658 per year from 1900 to 1913) but numbers have now decreased dramatically. The area is also home to black grouse and a major conservation programme has caused their population to increase in recent years. Other birds which can be seen include peregrine falcon, merlin, hen harrier, short-eared owl and ring ouzel.
The area has been modified by human activity since prehistoric times when people built cairns and cleared the original forest. Mining has taken place in the area since Roman times and there are still many shafts of disused lead, zinc, silver and coal mines dotting the area. During the Second World War bombs were dropped on the moors by German planes heading to and from Liverpool and a number of bomb craters can still be seen today.
The area is popular with walkers and rock-climbers and the Offa's Dyke Path crosses the region.

Excerpt from www.discoverhongkong.com/ca/explore/unmissable-adventures...:
Shun Ping Street Murals
Shun Ping Street is located near the old fire station. Its name suggests good luck and wellbeing. Along the street, there are two murals depicting the deity-thanking ceremony, a traditional cultural event in Sha Tau Kok. To date, Sha Tau Kok residents still celebrate the Tin Hau Festival annually, and a large-scale ceremony takes place every 10 years. In the murals, you can see one of the most distinctive celebrations — the dragon boat dance performed by Hoklo women.

So many things I would like to say!
First of all, a huge thank you to Nai for exhibiting my works at DBL. Without her constant support and encouragement, I would have been a lot less today.
A huge thank you as well to all who came for the opening, and I MAY be planning something for those who bought my works that day. ;) The works will be up there until the end of May, featuring fabulous work from Zolar Merlin as well, do feel free to drop by slurl.com/secondlife/Casablanca Estates Two/87/234/1927
Well, I can't believe the last time I posted something was nearly two months ago. RL work swarmed in and I couldn't go back to SL at all.
I was finally free last week, but after stopping for so long, it was really very difficult to get back. I'm woefully rusty and behind with everything SL and flickr. I had waited eagerly for the holiday and I thought I could bounce back quickly, but I was wrong; I was generally uninspired and rather confused.
Well, enough of my ranting! I saw an outfit featured by carthalis rossini www.flickr.com/photos/carthalis/4608378193/ and immediately knew that I had to check out AVid. I was amazed by the range and quality, and this outfit really caught my eye, and finally something inspired me to do something. It wasn't easy though, I'm still terribly rusty.
Well, I'm still ranting. Pardon me, I have been saving up nearly two months of rant. Glad to be back and hope to get more inspired and get used to everything again :D

No texture! :D
Premessa: questi dovevano essere i miei primi scatti con una Bencini Koroll II, che qualche tempo fa ho visto sola e triste in un mercatino dell’usato e siccome ho il cuore tenero l’ho subito adottata, pulita, curato una piccola ferita, e dato da mangiare nuova pellicola.
La piccola mangia rullini 120, gliene dò uno a colori e lo porto a sviluppare assieme all’altro rullino 120 che ho dato in pasto alla Brownie n°II, e al 35mm che si è mangiata la più piccola dippold-pin(h)ola.
Di tutti e tre chiedo la scansione dei negativi ma, sorpresa sorpresa, quando vado a ritirarli non ci sono le scansioni del rullo della Bencini. Il ragazzo del negozio, tra l’altro molto gentile nonché bravo fotografo, mi dice che dal laboratorio hanno rimandato indietro il rullo perché sono rimasti perplessi di fronte allo strano formato dei fotogrammi. Io rimango più perplesso di loro, perché se hanno fatto le scansione del 120 della Brownie (che produce un’immagine in formato 6x9 sul negativo, tra l’altro più grande di quella della Bencini), che ti sembri strano o no, non capisco quale sia la difficoltà da superare nello scansionare immagini più piccole, ancorché di formato e disposizione inusuali o poco diffusi.
Che poi questa storia della Koroll II due che produceva immagini in un formato strano l’avevo già sentita… altra storia che, una volta avuta la Bencini in mano e andato a vedere qual’era questa mitica “stranezza”, mi aveva lasciato un po’ perplesso. Perché in realtà il formato in sé, non ha proprio niente, ma proprio niente di niente, di strano e nemmeno di poco comune. Ma continuo qua sotto, così posso inserire delle foto ed esser più chiaro…

Music was my first love
And it will be my last
Music of the future
And music of the past
To live without my music
Would be impossible to do
In this world of troubles
My music pulls me through
Music was my first love
And it will be my last
Music of the future
And music of the past
Music was my first love
And it will be my last
Music of the future
And music of the past
To live without my music
Would be impossible to do
'Cuz in this world of troubles
My music pulls me through.

a vedere con l'orecchio e a udire con il cuore." (K.Gibran)

On Black really is better large
Decided to go to a different site to see if I could photograph some Linnets, no Linnets
but there were some Skylarks. So I decided it would be great to capture them doing their Song flight. Hundred odd shots two hours , and a series of colourful metaphors later, Kay managed to persuade the gibbering foaming at the mouth photographer, that it was time to leave. This way maddness lies !!!
Overview
The skylark is a small brown bird, somewhat larger than a sparrow but smaller than a starling. It is streaky brown with a small crest, which can be raised when the bird is excited or alarmed, and a white-sided tail. The wings also have a white rear edge, visible in flight. It is renowned for its display flight, vertically up in the air. Its recent and dramatic population declines make it a Red List species.
Where to see them
Found everywhere in the UK. Likes open countryside, from lowland farmland to upland moorland. Often inconspicuous on the ground, it is easy to see when in its distinctive song flight.
When to see them
All year round.

How do you tell someone you want them naked on top of you?
We can get a little crazy just for fun, just for fun
Don't even try to hold it back, just let go (you want me)
Tie me up and take me over 'til you're done, 'til I'm done
You got me feeling, and I'm ready to blow
Push up to my body, sink your teeth into my flesh
(Get undressed, t-taste the flesh)
Bite into me harder, sink your teeth into my flesh
(Pass the test, t-taste the flesh)

Credits are important to me as I don't make the stuff and Second Life would be very dull if it weren't for all the creators who do. The variety here is amazing. In a lot of ways, making a photograph here is like making a movie -- you need people who make stuff from trees to monsters to clothes to poses, people who create the sets, the actors (avators) and photographers. It is a wonderful collaboration between a lot of people that results in one photograph.... well, ok, a lot of photographs, lol.

Typical Cliched View of Big Ben and the London Underground Sign shot the day I bought the Fish Eye Lens.
The highlights were blown on Big Ben and I needed to test Lightroom's ability to recover details . . . well, that's my excuse anyway!
I haven't got to grips with Lightroom's handling of colors (far too many sliders controlling color) so the ones I've processed don't "pop" as usual.
I am also looking for a preset that calibrates my 20D and 5D for Lightroom; I recall that I had to do this with RawShooter Premium as well before I got the colors I liked.
