The land speaks it says the first people I am fascinated by the desolate land with always a beautiful sky of clouds . The drive on five California has many miles of nothingness yet I see it as having energy and quite beautiful.. seldom is signs of anyone living there. Obviously, it doesn’t take much to entertain me as I click away admiring the beauty from my seat as a passenger. It is a curious site to see if there is still land undisturbed..

The challenge was to take a photo of land and demonstrate artistic processing.

One of the beaches in San Francisco. The waves were a decent size but the 10-stop ND filter dealt with them.
The search for the balance of two or more stones requires patience and humility, detachment from the passage of time, immersion in nature, listening to sounds and silence. It is a mental discipline that increases the sensitivity and perception of the exchange of energy between the subject and the stone to be placed in balance as reported in the international artistic manifesto of stone balance

It’s ages since I blogged anything by !gO! and I have to apologise to them profusely! They just kind of slipped off my radar which is a shame which I love their quirky rustic fantasy designs. This is an outfit that came out last month and it’s just adorable, especially when I pair it with the second of the new Truth hairs that can be got at Uber. I’ve shown it along with its optional cap, thankfully not adorned with any Tr*mp-like message!
Hoewel we zaterdag 5 maart rond het middaguur weer vanuit de Alpenregio richting de lage landen zouden vertrekken, zou ondanks het korte tijdsbestek om foto's te maken deze dag toch erg succesvol worden. De dag werd begonnen in Niederaudorf waar we eerder die week ook al 's ochtends een kijkje kwamen nemen, helaas met een matig resultaat. Deze ochtend stond er echter wat op de planning en dat betroffen een aantal skitreinen welke allemaal rond hetzelfde tijdstip zouden moeten passeren. Toen we aankwamen op de stek stonden er reeds al een aantal fotografen die vanuit verschillende delen in Duitsland en Oostenrijk ook deze ochtend naar Niederaudorf waren getrokken. Niet lang nadat we alles klaar hadden staan kwam al de eerste klapper van de dag in de verte opdoemen, en dit betrof een trein van Lokomotion met "La Crema" op kop. Deze loc stond voor deze trip nog op het lijstje dus het was wel lekker om deze op het nippertje alsnog af te kunnen strepen.
Nadat Lokomotion de fotografen tevreden had achtergelaten kon nu het wachten beginnen op de eerste skitrein. We hadden inmiddels vernomen dat de eerste skitrein de Urlaubs-Express 1303 vanuit Münster naar St. Anton am Arlberg zou zijn welke werd voortgetrokken door de ietwat opvallende Smartrail 111 057. In principe zou ook het deel van de Urlaubs-Express 1383 vanuit Hamburg-Altona in deze trein moeten zitten, maar vanwege een defect en de bijkomende vertraging reden deze twee treinen apart en werden dus niet in Duitsland gecombineerd. Gelukkig reed het deel met de Smartrail 111 057 uit Münster wel op tijd en zat zelfs al binnen een kwartier op volgafstand van Lokomotion.
Ook kregen we te horen dat de Alpen-Express vanuit Nederland, welke ongeveer twintig minuten achter de Urlaubs-Express zat, helaas met een zwarte Taurus reed en niet met de gehoopte GfF 110 459. De GfF 110 459 had schijnbaar nog steeds geen toelating op Oostenrijkse bodem en moest dus ingewisseld worden voor deze veel saaiere tractie. Dit betekende dus dat de Urlaubs-Express uit Münster de enige echt leuke skitrein zou zijn die we hier in Niederaudorf konden fotograferen, maar gelukkig kwam Lokomotion nogmaals voorbij waardoor dit wel goed gecompenseerd werd.
Zoals gezegd hoefden we na de eerste passage van Lokomotion niet bijster lang te wachten, want zo'n 10 minuten nadat de eerste foto van de dag binnen was, sprong het sein weer op groen richting Kufstein. Enkele minuten later komt er een kort maar zeer bont treintje naar beneden gereden welke zich in het fraaiste ochtendlicht laat zien. Vervolgens is het een kwestie van fotograferen om deze fraaie bonte trein te vereeuwigen...
Het is 8:04 als de Smartrail 111 057 de vele fotografen passeert met op de bok een lachende machinist en aan de haak Urlaubs-Express 1303 vanuit Münster naar St. Anton am Arlberg. Nadat deze foto geslaagd was werd er ondanks de saaie tractie toch gewacht op de Alpen-Express. Echter had Lokomotion nog een verrassing in petto nog voordat de skitrein vanuit Nederland voorbij zou komen!

In 1986, the Netherlands proclaimed the new 12th province of Flevoland but they didn't carve out the province from already existing land nor did they annex the territory of their neighbors - Germany and Belgium. The Netherlands actually grew.
The Dutch and their ancestors have been working to hold back and reclaim land from the North Sea for over 2000 years. Over 2000 years ago, the Frisians who first settled the Netherlands began to build terpen, the first dikes to hold back the water.
In 1287 the terpen and dikes that held back the North Sea failed, and water flooded the country. A new bay, called Zuiderzee (South Sea) was created over former farmland. For the next few centuries, the Dutch worked to slowly push back the water of the Zuiderzee, building dikes and creating polders (the term used to described any piece of land reclaimed from water). Once dikes are built, canals and pumps are used to drain the land and to keep it dry. From the 1200s, windmills had been used to pump excess water off the fertile soil; today most of the windmills have been replaced with electricity- and diesel-driven pumps.
Then, storms and floods of 1916 provided the impetus for the Dutch to start a major project to reclaim the Zuiderzee. From 1927 to 1932, a 30.5 km (19 mile) long dike called Afsluitdijk (the Closing Dike) was built, turning the Zuiderzee into the IJsselmeer, a freshwater lake. (Much of the Netherlands is essentially a delta for the Rhine and other rivers.)
Further protective dikes and works were built, reclaiming the land of the IJsselmeer. The new land led to the creation of a the new province of Flevoland from what had been sea and water for centuries. The collective North Sea Protective Works is one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World, according to the American Society of Civil Engineers.
Today, approximately 27 percent of the Netherlands is actually below sea level. This area is home to over 60 percent of the country's population of 15.8 million people. The Netherlands, which is approximately the size of the U.S. states Connecticut and Massachusetts combined, has an approximate average elevation of 11 meters (36 feet). The Netherlands ties Lemmefjord, Denmark for claim to the lowest point in Western Europe - Prince Alexander Polder lies at 23 feet (7 meters) below sea level.
Spring is approaching and sunny days are increasing. Mt.Chokai was clearly visible again this day.
Here is Okuyama pasture land. There were many tracks where snowmobiles had run. I came here on foot with snowshoes.
春が近づいてきて、晴れの日が増えてきました。今日も鳥海山がはっきりと見えました。
ここは奥山放牧場。たくさんのスノーモービルの走った跡がありました。そして、途中で何台か、爆音を上げながら走り去って行きました。自分はスノーシューで歩いてここまできました。

We were walking along with friends also keen to photography and someone had brought this crystal ball with him. I don't have one so given the chance, I got me a quick shot, just for fun! Turned out to be pretty cute! And... fun!
So... enter the Upside Down Land!!! :-)

Our trusty Toyota Land Cruiser took us all over the Sahara desert. Up and over sand dunes, through rock strewn hardpack and down some truly steep slopes leading to valleys and lakes.
