More variations in the colors that ripples can reflect. [These colors are intensified, but other than that, it's just a straight shot.]

The purple hues were intensified…for Sliders Sunday.
HSS, everyone!
Yesterday was a beautifully calm day along the Linville River. The touch of fog only served to intensify the colors of autumn. This was among the last shots of my two weeks in the mountains of North Carolina... if I had waited until today to shoot this and other colorful images there, it would have been too late. That area has seen some really rough weather over the last 24 hours, including tornado warnings. With gusts up to 70 miles per hour in this very spot, all these brilliant leaves have likely been stripped. I’m happy to have walked away with this image that reminds me so much of a Tiffany lamp, but I’m not so happy for the ones who live and make their living in places along the affected area, like Newland, Sugar Mountain, Linville, and the community of Linville Falls, among others. Please keep these folks in your thoughts and prayers, as flooding is imminent there.
When I was about to call it a night, the glow crept in. And with due time, it intensified. Glad I stayed!
After 3 hours in the cold waiting for the train to pass and coming out empty handed, we decided to give it another shot the next day. We did a happy dance as the deep rumbling sound of the train intensified.

Dichotomy
“There are two kinds of light - the glow that illuminates, and the glare that obscures.”
― James Thurbe
EN: In this day the sky was full of promises.
The storm was coming form the north and i tried to intensify, even more, the feeling of dichotomy that i could see in front of me.
The storm that was coming from the north was taking over the last breath of the sun on the south side...
In this session i just was able to shot 3/4 shots before the sky come pourring down on me and had to rune and take cover.
PT: Neste dia o céu prometia...
Procurei intensificar ainda mais a dicotomia entre o norte e o sul centrando as minhas atenções na tempestade que se aproximava do norte em contraponto com os resquícios de luz que tentavam sobreviver a sul...o sentimento de divisão era óbvio!
Nesta curta sessão de fotos, decidida mesmo em cima da hora, apenas consegui fazer 3 ou 4 fotos pois a chuva que começou a cair era tanta que fui obrigado a procurar refugio e dar a sessão por terminada.
Agradeço toda a partilha que possam fazer do meu trabalho se for do vosso agrado.
Hope you all like it as mutch as i loved to shoot it :)

Redstart (m) - Phoenicuros Phoenicuros
The common redstart (Phoenicurus phoenicurus), or often simply redstart, is a small passerine bird in the redstart genus Phoenicurus. Like its relatives, it was formerly classed as a member of the thrush family, (Turdidae), but is now known to be an Old World flycatcher (family Muscicapidae).
Common redstarts prefer open mature birch and oak woodland with a high horizontal visibility and low amounts of shrub and understorey especially where the trees are old enough to have holes suitable for its nest. They prefer to nest on the edge of woodland clearings. In Britain it occurs primarily in upland areas less affected by agricultural intensification, but further east in Europe also commonly in lowland areas, including parks and old gardens in urban areas. They nest in natural tree holes, so dead trees or those with dead limbs are beneficial to the species; nestboxes are sometimes used. A high cover of moss and lichen is also preferred. They also use mature open conifer woodland, particularly in the north of the breeding range. Management to thin out the trees is thus favoured.[5][6]
In England, where it has declined by 55% in the past 25 years, the Forestry Commission offers grants under a scheme called England's Woodland Improvement Grant (EWIG); as does Natural Englands Environmental Stewardship Scheme. It is a very rare and irregular breeding bird in Ireland, with between one and five pairs breeding in most years, mainly in County Wicklow.
It is a summer visitor throughout most of Europe and western Asia (east to Lake Baikal), and also in northwest Africa in Morocco. It winters in central Africa and Arabia, south of the Sahara Desert but north of the Equator, from Senegal east to Yemen. It is widespread as a breeding bird in Great Britain, particularly in upland broadleaf woodlands and hedgerow trees, but in Ireland it is very local, and may not breed every year.
The males first arrive in early to mid April, often a few days in advance of the females. Five or six light blue eggs are laid during May, with a second brood in mid summer in the south of the breeding range. It departs for Africa between mid-August and early October. It often feeds like a flycatcher, making aerial sallies after passing insects, and most of its food consists of winged insects. The call is chat-like and the alarm a plaintive single note, wheet, like that of many other chats.
The male’s song is similar to that of the Robin, but never more than a prelude, since it has an unfinished, feeble ending.

As the siege tightens and bombing intensifies, this young Syrian man defies all faces of death in the streets of Jobar. He collects wood to burn, the only way of keeping warm and cooking in this town. Why do you think he is smiling, even in such a dark place?
Eastern Ghouta
After a week when temperatures across the UK have hovered above a sweltering 30C/85F, I found myself longing for the chill and fog of early spring, and revisited a shot which I captured at the centre of Richmond Park in early April. On many mornings I'd hoped for calm conditions that would bring heavier fog, and before this particular sunrise the low wind speed and near-freezing temperature near the Pen Ponds created fog so dense that, for a couple of hours, visibility dropped to about 20 metres. As the sun finally crept above the woodland and created various shades of orange and pink on the horizon, I came across the bare branches of an oak tree, and next to it the remains of a broken tree trunk, part of which now lay on the ground. Something about this scene captivated me, so I stopped to capture it.
The image is a blend of seven bracketed exposures, and proved to be a fun editing project because of the contrast between intense foggy light around the sun and deep shadows covering the trees and foreground. I began by blending my exposures using luminosity masks, bringing up visibility of the tree trunks while toning down brightness around the sun. I then refined my own masks in order to select and intensify the fog in the background. This was achieved by duplicating the blue channel in the Channels Panel and using a Levels adjustment to increase the channel's contrast between Darks and Midtones, effectively removing the trees and grass from the selection. After extracting the highlights around the sun using a selection from my Brights luminosity masks, I was left with a selection of just the foggy background, where I blended in my brightest exposures using a combination of linear and reflective gradient masks.
Colour-grading the image was very straightforward, as the mixture of early-morning blues across the landscape and intense warm tones in the sky only needed a little emphasis. Using Colour Balance adjustments with Apply Image as a layer mask, I gave the midtones and shadows a colder finish, and targeted the brighter area around the sun to increase the reds and magentas in the highlights. Setting two low-opacity Colour Lookup adjustments to Soft Light, I then used the Foggy Night preset for the foreground and the Soft Warming preset for the sky.
Using Nik's Colour Efex Pro, I brought out a little of the tree trunks' texture using the Detail Extractor filter, and at the same time softened the detail in the sky using the Sunlight filter, which helped to bring out the hazy glow across the scene when I'd captured it. While I thought that viewers' eyes would gravitate to the sun emerging between the tree's branches, the tree and the trunks among the fog were what drew me to the scene, and I felt it was important to try to emphasise their weathered texture and, ultimately, their "character". There was something hopeful about the colour spreading across the horizon as the sun rose, but at the same time something poignant about a scene that seemed to tell a story of nature's brutality and illustrate how certain things, once broken, can't easily be healed or repaired.

Cpatured just as the storm started to brew at the Auden's Col base. The cold had intensified and wind speed made it worse for the tripod to stay steady but still I got a shot where the clouds covered the Col just up ahead.

No clouds in the sunrise this morning but Farmer's Pond isn't frozen anymore, so the reflections are amazing. This is my favorite time of the morning, when the Belt of Venus intensifies.
A modern hotel complex in Amsterdam, located near the water and photographed during golden hour in the end of the afternoon. This describes the original image I made and in my edit, I enlarged and intensified the whole experience. The hotel became larger, the sunlight and the reflections more luscious. The golden shine of the orange bricks and their reflections in the water contrasts beautifully with the patches of blue reflected sky. An unforgettable experience that needed to be the subject of this artwork
The work creates a contrasting sense of cold, mystery, and vitality. The black and white imagery intensifies the harsh winter atmosphere, while the figure's breath, exhaled in the chilly wind, becomes a striking visual focal point, suggesting survival and resilience in a harsh environment.
The dark background, blurred mountains, and distant buildings create a mysterious and desolate atmosphere, as if transported to a secluded world of ice and snow.
The backlit shot sharpens the figure's outline, making the breath stand out against the light, creating a strong contrast between light and dark, adding drama and artistic tension.
Despite the chilly environment, the figure's breath is full of movement, injecting a sense of life into the image and imbuing the static scene with vitality. Photographed by Liu Huanqing in Hemu Village, Xinjiang

The heat was intensifying rapidly and my usual haunts were not accessible so conventional (after a fashion) beach photography became my thing for an hour. It is a lot more difficult than I had previously imagined. Enjoyable though.
For Sliders Sunday, brought down the shadows and upped the contrast to intensify the low key effect.
Bright and fierce is the summertime in Colorado's high country. At altitudes above 10000 feet (~3000 m), UV radiation really intensifies, and alpine plants have to have ways of coping with the radiation dose while keeping their photosynthetic machinery intact and protected from UV induced free-radical damage. Additional ferocity comes from the monsoon-driven thunderstorms that rake the Front Range with lightning and provide core-rattling entertainment in the form of Thor's Hammer being thrown around the halls of Valhalla.
Here, we're looking West over the top of Goose Lake toward South (far left) and North Arapahoe Peaks and the Continental Divide in the Indian Peaks Wilderness. An eye-catching patch of Stemless Hymenoxys (Tetraneuris acaulis) fills the foreground, along with other more diminuitive flowering cushion plants.
To achieve clarity from front to back, I focus-stacked 7 images. Thanks for your visit and comments!

Lonely dead tree in Mammoth Hot Springs (Yellowstone, Wyoming, USA). The dark clouds mixed with the water vapour contributed to intensify this apocalytic landscape.
One of the coolest butterfly species out there. One of these visit our garden every day for some nectar. It is very difficult to take a decent capture. Yesterday after 8 p.m. It flew around again. It is much slower in the evening, and so an easier target. But the lighting conditions are difficult. I had to crank up the ISO, took 61 pictures and there were three decent ones. This one is without cropping, a fairly sharp head (could be just a tad sharper though) and a nice soft background. I had to denoise a lot and intensify the colours.I hope you enjoy it.
Continuing post from Storsteinnes, near Tromso, Norway, on a trip with Wandering Owl. As time moved on, the aurora intensified. Even with the naked eye we could start to see a red band rise behind the trees (we were looking east-northeast-east, ENE) and the show started! over the next half hour, the aurora intensified, eventually filling the entire Eastern sky with green Pilars emanating from a spot overhead where intense swirls of color were dancing. The swirl must have been a particle shower hit, and when it faded, it dissipated and the Pilars started fading from right above us back toward the ground, like falling confetti. the entire show took about 30 min. We were so mesmerized that it did not occur to me to run back to the camera and restart the capture... oh well (this is why I would always set the interval shooting to 999 frames in the future). I still do not think I could have done it justice without a fisheye lens!!
I will post a few more frames growing in intestate and two time lapses, one right of the sensor then another enhanced version. it was AWSOME. I hope you enjoy this depiction of the event. Get north if you can in 2025- sun activity is at its peak!
"Skógafoss is a waterfall situated on the Skógá River in the south of Iceland at the cliffs of the former coastline. After the coastline had receded seaward (it is now at a distance of about 5 kilometres (3.1 miles) from Skógar), the former sea cliffs remained, parallel to the coast over hundreds of kilometres, creating together with some mountains a clear border between the coastal lowlands and the Highlands of Iceland." - Wikipedia
Long exposure shot of the amazing Godafoss waterfall in Iceland on an overcast day. The grey sky and clouds created a sombre yet beautiful light and served to intensify this eerie and otherworldly mood.
A vivid sunrise illuminates the sky pink over two icons in Yosemite National Park. Arriving early in the morning at dawn, the light intensified with the silhouettes of El Capitan and Half Dome prominently in the frame.
This nearly dead rose falls into the category of "it ain't over till it's over"!!! I bought it to photograph well over a week ago and , although darkened, browning around the edges and limp, it has a beauty that I cannot bear to part with just yet! The colour has intensified ( although it was a very velvety rich red to begin with), the textures have become more distinct and the fragrance is stronger. Age becomes this bloom. Wish it did that for all of us!
