Lulworth is considered to be one of the most perfectly shaped coves in the World.Its shaped like a Scallop shell. Clays and sands formed the front of the cove which eroded over time allowing the sea to carve out its wonderful shape. The area along the shoreline is formed from Portland Stone, from which cement is made. lots of historic buildings world wide were built from the stone, and it is extremely tough stopping further erosion inward though the cove is widening and the cliffs on the west side are in a dangerous condition. The waves enter the cove radiating out in a circular direction as can be seen in the photo and its this that creates the perfectly symmetrical shape.
It is part of the Jurassic coast and is a World heritage site visited by over a half a million people each year.
I loved the place as it was a real working harbour with proper fishing boats and fishermen mending their nets and getting their boats ready for the morning. The little town is totally unspoiled and I found it charming!
Most photos of Lulworth show the complete shell shape of the cove but they have all been taken from the air as its impossible to view it in its entirety, any other way.
I suppose this photo is a bit more unusual as its not the normal touristy snap which Im not a fan of. I did have to post process it quite a bit as the light was almost gone.Its the best I could do and Ill just leave it as it is.
Its a great place to visit so do go there! Ill certainly be back next year and you could meet me.
I hope you may like my effort and I welcome your input etc.
Hope your week ahead is as special as you are to Flickr.
Thank you,
Pat.

I heard today that the region had the lowest solar input for the month of January since they started keeping those records - meaning that we hardly saw the sun - not the kind of record we like to break. This male cardinal did his best to brighten up the last cloudy day in January though.

Another night shot from this year's harvest. We finished this year's harvest yesterday right before a big change in the weather- Yesterday's high of 75° was replaced today by a high of only 35°. But it's the midwest so anything goes when it comes to the weather! Yields ended being better than last year and some of the best we have had. But we need it,expenses are basically double or more than what they were just 2 years ago!

Trans World Flight Center, the original terminal building, or head house, operated as TWA main terminal from 1962 to 2001.
Designed for Trans World Airlines by Eero Saarinen and Associates, with inputs by Howard Hughes. Design incorporates elements of the Futurist, Neo-futurist, and Fantastic architectural styles. It featured a prominent wing shaped thin shell roof supported by four Y-shaped piers. Inside an open three-level space with tall windows enabling views of departing and arriving jets. Two tube-shaped red-carpeted departure-arrival corridors extended outward, connecting to the gates.
Saarinen described the head house form as being like the Leonardo da Vinci flying machine, from Howard Hughes vision of what he wanted. I want to say the two hit it right on..
While driving along the Kings Canyon we realized it was only a couple hours to sunset. Importantly we had not decided any place where we wanted to get the sunset. For a change it was drizzling all afternoon and I was thinking of getting some nice post-rain clouds for the sunset. We finally decided to drive back to Sequoia and get the sunset at the Moro Rock. It was about an hour away from the Kings Canyon National Park.
As we arrived at the spot after climbing like 500 stairs, we were greeted with this awesome view. This is the west side where all the magic was happening.
The stairs go right to the top, an exasperating climb but completely worth the effort. At times a bit unsafe as the railings are absent, but no biggy! Excellent place to watch stars if you stay late on the top. This was taken from about half climb where there is a small balcony put out to watch the wavy valley.
The windy roads down the valley looked tempting. I instantly wanted to get the light trails of the cars driving back from the NP. I stayed up late and tried many exposures before I was sure about the settings. About 20min after the sunset I started to see the trials in 3-4min exposures but still the top of the photograph was too exposed. Had to wait a bit more for the light on the top to get less intense. The worry was the valley can get too dark! This was my third and final shot with a 6min exposure after the sun was completely down. Eventually, I realized its only a 15min window when the light is right to expose the shot right and get the trails distinct enough to stand out of the scene. The lights in the back is Visalia and Tulare.
Will post a few more shots from a day before.

A combo of 3 Wombos, blended in Pixelmator Pro.
Style used for all 3 images was Abstract Fluid
I used that same female red wing blackbird as input photo for all the images.
I do enjoy the magic that Abstract Fluid creates. And by using the same input image on normal, but with different prompt words (flower, butterfly, etc.), I've been able to combine different images very easily.
Happy Friday to all and thank you for all you faves, comments and invitations!
Maybe this was the lull during Super Saturday. Remember Super Saturday? It was the day when the Snaefellsnes peninsula was our world and we explored it royally. From mid morning at Grundarfoss until after sunset under an enormous pink swirling cloud at the black church of Budir we stopped here there and everywhere on a day of maximum input and an output that will have me reaching into the archives for months, possibly years to come. I have no less than eighteen separate folders full of RAW files from that finest of days, some of which contain large numbers of images to pore over, while a few, such as the group I took from a layby on the road to Hellnar have just two or three files, little more than handheld snapshots.
By the time we arrived here, we’d already had a very agreeable few hours at the lesser known Svodufoss on the northwest corner of the peninsula, where we’d bathed in autumnal sunshine under the majestic white peak of Snaefellsjokull. We’d paused briefly to photograph the church of Ingjaldsholl in front of the glacier, before sauntering happily along the remote and empty Utnesvegur, passing a discarded landscape of twisted forms. A crater here, a lava field there. For now we were just driving through the landscape, enjoying the privilege of witnessing this extraordinary peninsula. We’d stop at Arnarstapi and photograph the white house again next, we decided. But for a moment we’d take that side road to Hellnar and pause in the layby for a snack, from where we could gaze down at the church we’d abandoned all intentions of photographing twenty-four hours earlier. I’d seen some very agreeable images of the subject in these pages, but from wherever you looked it was surrounded by clutter, and the most compelling pictures I’d found for reference had been simplified by a blanket of snow. Reluctantly we’d agreed that there probably wasn’t a shot here for this trip. I took a couple of snaps with the long lens and duly filed the results, instantly forgetting the episode as we moved on to the next stop where there was an already tried and tested composition to revisit. The lull was over, and the feeding frenzy of Super Saturday had resumed.
It was only much later, in one of those moments when I decided that while I wanted to play around with some shots in the editing suite, I wasn’t in the mood for sifting through a large number of candidates. I wanted simple, and simple didn’t come easier than a folder with only three RAW files, two of which appeared to be almost identical. The shortlisting would take approximately zero seconds. Maybe I could declutter the space around the church? Another monochrome conversion with a bit of contrast would help to simplify the scene, and perhaps there was an image hidden in plain sight that was worth persevering for. Just a quick half hour before I moved away from the computer and did something else with my Sunday afternoon, I thought to myself. And so I started to tinker, gradually removing one distraction after another with varying degrees of success, until the white church stood alone in its space against the quiet ocean. A dodge, a burn or several, a pair of levels and curves adjustments and the shapes of distant mountains somewhere closer to Reykjavik appeared across the water. Now an image that initially offered little promise began to take shape. It still wasn’t one I planned to share – at least not until the moment that I began to rather like what I was looking at. Somehow, an image had evolved from a messy starting point and I was happy.
It makes me wonder what else I’ve got lying around in my saved files; what images are hovering one step away from the dustbin of eternity that might have a hidden promise just waiting to be hatched from chaos. When there are so many fantastic moments still waiting to be captured, it may be a while before any more of the lesser lights appear, but anything is possible. “Never delete anything – just in case,” seems to be the lesson I’ve learned, not that I often do. You never know when you might see something in an unloved snapshot that you overlooked in the first place.

Even though the weather feels like Winter, buds are starting to plump. Looking forward to all the color!
In the previous photograph I explained the physical law of entropy. It is actually the most fundamental law in the universe. The only way entropy can be overcome is with an additional input of energy, i.e. work.
Here we see a once workable hut reduced to a ruin by the law of entropy. All things must return to their natural state. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. You get the idea. So here we see the old hut's iron roof rusting away, its wooden boards rotten, and within a few short years (perhaps less) it will collapse with only the brick chimney left standing.
Already the trees are starting to grow inside and twist the building around on its axis. I didn't go inside because I'll wager there were one or two snakes in there too. And all Tasmanian snakes are venomous.

Friends, I've been struggling with the crop of this photo. Below is the original version I posted. The version above is smaller. I welcome your input as to which crop you feel is better. Thank you.
To finish up this "Sharp or Unsharp" series, the closing in on an object, from different angles, with different cameras and lenses, one photo digital the other argentic, a word so much better than the plain "analog".
For me, each image has its own charm, and I sometimes wonder if all this quest of mine has anything to do with "wabi-sabi", the Japanese school of thought in which beauty is to be found in imperfection
I would like to thank all for their precious input, their valuable feelings, opinions and suggestions. I guess it will be a while before I take it all in and, somehow, in the process, make it mine.
"Bem hajam" (be well) as people say here in Covilhã in the stead of "thank you".

I keep using my textured photo of the female red winged blackbird because the warm brown tones make such a pleasing background. I started out making butterflies but this lovely girl emerged and demanded to be the star. I hoped she learned to fly.

A fern (Polypodiopsida or Polypodiophyta /ˌpɒliˌpɒdiˈɒfɪtə, -əˈfaɪtə/)[citation needed] is a member of a group of vascular plants (plants with xylem and phloem) that reproduce via spores and have neither seeds nor flowers. The polypodiophytes include all living pteridophytes except the lycopods, and differ from mosses and other bryophytes by being vascular, i.e., having specialized tissues that conduct water and nutrients and in having life cycles in which the branched sporophyte is the dominant phase. Ferns have complex leaves called megaphylls, that are more complex than the microphylls of clubmosses. Most ferns are leptosporangiate ferns. They produce coiled fiddleheads that uncoil and expand into fronds. The group includes about 10,560 known extant species. Ferns are defined here in the broad sense, being all of the Polypodiopsida, comprising both the leptosporangiate (Polypodiidae) and eusporangiate ferns, the latter group including horsetails, whisk ferns, marattioid ferns, and ophioglossoid ferns.
Ferns first appear in the fossil record about 360 million years ago in the late Devonian period, but many of the current families and species did not appear until roughly 145 million years ago in the early Cretaceous, after flowering plants came to dominate many environments. The fern Osmunda claytoniana is a paramount example of evolutionary stasis; paleontological evidence indicates it has remained unchanged, even at the level of fossilized nuclei and chromosomes, for at least 180 million years.
Ferns are not of major economic importance, but some are used for food, medicine, as biofertilizer, as ornamental plants, and for remediating contaminated soil. They have been the subject of research for their ability to remove some chemical pollutants from the atmosphere. Some fern species, such as bracken (Pteridium aquilinum) and water fern (Azolla filiculoides) are significant weeds worldwide. Some fern genera, such as Azolla, can fix nitrogen and make a significant input to the nitrogen nutrition of rice paddies. They also play certain roles in folklore.

What is it that makes us human? Is it that we love, that we fight ? That we laugh ? Cry ? Our curiosity ? The quest for discovery ?
Driven by these questions, filmmaker and artist Yann Arthus-Bertrand spent three years collecting real-life stories from 2,000 women and men in 60 countries.
Working with a dedicated team of translators, journalists and cameramen, Yann captures deeply personal and emotional accounts of topics that unite us all; struggles with poverty, war, homophobia, and the future of our planet mixed with moments of love and happiness.

Sunset at Parkamoor Jetty, Coniston Water, Lake District National Park
I'd like to ask those that follow me and anyone else who has the time/inclination to let me know which of the 3 compositions I took they prefer, and why? I'm intrigued to know your views to compare with mine. All 3 shots were taken within about 10-15 mins of each other. All are a focus stacked long exposure images for the water & jetty blended with a normal sky exposure.
I was looking for something to shoot that was not too far away as the sky was looking promising. Had not really looked at the Coniston Water area before and saw in one of the photo books a couple of jetties on the east shore so picked one and went for it. Fantastic light.
Many thanks for any input made. many thanks in advance.
