Raggi di Luce dal Cielo sul Mar Morto! / Light rays = Holy Light from Heaven?!
Peace, Peace, Peace in the Holy Land!!!!!
Il Mar Morto (in ebraico ים המלח, letteralmente mare del sale e in arabo البحر الميت) è - propriamente - un lago situato tra Israele (e il territorio della Cisgiordania) e la Giordania. Chiamato anticamente "Asfaltide", il mar Morto si trova nella depressione più profonda della Terra, a 413 metri sotto il livello del mare. Lungo 76 km e largo 16 ha una superficie di 650 km².
L'acqua è troppo salata e questo non consente alcuna forma di vita fatta eccezione per i batteri: da qui il nome mar Morto.
È un mare chiuso che ha come immissari le acque del fiume Giordano, del fiume Arnon e di altri corsi d'acqua di minore importanza, senza avere però alcun emissario.
La sua salinità aumenta con la profondità. La superficie è la parte meno salata, diluita dalle acque del Giordano che trovano difficoltà a scendere negli strati più bassi: scendendo a 40 m di profondità, la salinità diventa di 300 g per chilogrammo di acqua[1], circa 10 volte quella degli oceani. Verso i 100 m di profondità la salinità aumenta a 332 g per ogni chilogrammo di acqua, saturandosi: il sale precipita e si accumula sul fondo del mare.
Le acque del Mar Morto vengono usate per la produzione di cloruro di potassio sia da società israeliane che giordane: vengono anche estratti bromo e magnesio, di cui il mare è ricco. L'estrazione viene fatta partendo dalle saline, visibili dallo spazio nella estremità sud del mar Morto.
L'acqua del Mar Morto è talmente salata da permettere a chiunque di galleggiare senza alcuno sforzo.
Le sue acque erano conosciute fin dai tempi dei Romani per le loro qualità curative.

Another photo of Ari-Corea taken on the Royal Mile in 2005. Just as the light was starting to go, the light became interesting.
Wolves were hunted to extinction in Germany during the 20th century, and only began returning to the country as late as 1998. These Wolves are thought to have migrated from western Poland. Currently, there are around 35 wolves in 4 packs now roaming the heaths of the eastern German region of Lusatia, and they are now still expanding their range to the west and north.

After another 3am start, I managed to place myself in front of an incoming westerly snow storm, with the sun rising in clear skies to the East, this made for some very interesting results when the storm passed over my head and collided with the warm light from the rising sun. Light catching the millions of snowflakes made for some impressive light rays and the effect of the swirly snow in the distant valleys just added to the atmosphere of the photographs.

Conisborough Castle was lit up on Armistice Day, to commemorate all the soldiers, the ones that died, and the ones that lived through the war to end all wars, and wars that followed since.
Without what those people sacrificed, I may have never been here to take this shot.

Light rays from the sunrise dance out onto the Caribbean Waters off the coast of Ambergris Caye, Belize.
Brilliant golden light rays beaming over the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee. The distant ridge is Clingman's Dome, it's peak just outside the left edge of the frame. Image taken from the Blue Ridge Parkway, some twenty miles away, with a telephoto zoom.

Watched the amazing light rays over the Black Mountains today, was so cool. Waited for ages to see if the clouds would open a little to allow the light on the foreground but no joy. Oh well was lovely to watch the light paint the fields from a distance.

For me the creation of a photograph is experienced as a heightened emotional response, most akin to poetry and music, each image the culmination of a compelling impulse I cannot deny.

Luckily there's no one when I did this self portrait, if not, it will be awkward though.

A simple but interesting shot i must say... Love the effects of fisheye!

The central circle isn't designed to sacrifice virgins to some satanic deity (they're a pretty scarce commodity these days except in some muddy interpretation of a certain religious text), in fact it is engraved with zodiacal constellations.
I'm a Scorpio in case you're interested, characterised by a sting in the tail etc, but I hear you can get antibiotics that will clear it up super quick :D
.I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

This was only my second visit to Porth Nanven Cove - nestled within Cot Valley and accessed through narrow winding roads near St Just (close to Land's End).
The hour drive was woth the effort this time - as the setting sun washed diffused light over the cove's characteristic granite boulders to fill the scene with pastel colours. As the sun descended into the low cloud bank, light rays radiated from behind.

After a big day at a theme park, shooting with a camera I can't talk about yet, I came home to find the sun hiding behind a cloud, and I managed to capture sunbeams! Actual sunbeams. Apparently they're called "crepuscular rays" but that sounds less romantic. Captured them with the Nikon D5 in manual mode. And no, I haven't returned it yet. No one dob.
