Early morning at Dunnottar Castle: once the sun rose, the clouds were illuminated in glorious shades of bright warm orange-red.
I was feeling a bit artistic with this one again.
Mixed Light Series:
Daylight just passed into dark night and the parking lot lights wake up. The rural supply store's lights come on highlighting the red awnings and shed light on the stacks of supplies that point to the upcoming Spring chores.

A wee little Metallic Green Bee, AKA Sweat Bee photo bombing my Milkweed photo. From a hike at Wildcat Glades a couple of days ago.
The color on this particular Butterfly Milkweed flower was almost insanely bright. The rest of the plant was the normal orange but this one was much more saturated.
The sun was going down still a lovely afterglow, the people driving home still smiling after a lovely day, the lights came on, back to work for the night, shops and attractions were closing down grateful for the lovely rest, DONE FOR THE DAY...
Photographically an interesting time, this is a pond on the North Beach, in Bridlington, where kids can ride little boats, the promenade light reflecting in the still water.
Another aspect of Summer...
ALWAYS BETTER LARGE!!!
Have a lovely day and thanx for your comments, M, (*_*)

Something about diCorcia and male prostitutes?
DAY 7
After the ceremony, the top brass enter the City Hall of Brugge where they attend a reception up in the Gothic Hall.
Bruges' City Hall dates from 1376, was built in 55 years, and is one of the oldest in the Netherlands, a fine example, copied by many, like Brussels, Ghent, Leuven.
From here, the city has been governed for more than 600 years.
The Bruges City Hall is one of the oldest city halls in the entire Netherlands region.
It is located in Burg Square, the area of the former fortified castle in the centre of Bruges, Belgium.
Responsibility for its construction was given to Jan Roegiers, and the project was completed, eventually, in 1421.
The City Hall is the earliest late Gothic monumental-style municipal council building in Flanders or Brabant: its flamboyant opulence testifies to the city's economic and political power.
The building's admirers highlight the effect of the "Brugian span", referring to the abundance of repeating systematically positioned niches encompassing the windows.
The statues under the stone baldachin-canopies on the building's facade have been renewed several times.
At the time of the French Revolution all the statues were destroyed. A small number of genuine pieces are now included in the collections of the city museum.
I wish you a day full of beauty and thank you for your visit, Magda, (*_*)

Some utterly beautiful woodland - west-coast birch and oak forestry on the way from carpark to Aoineadh Mor.
I don't often tag places "idyll", but this certainly was a perfect moment, a real nemophilist's delight.
Blog: walk in the woods
...came by last night, probably to die in peace with me. It is still sitting over there and hardly moving anymore.

Die Motte neben meinem Bettchen... :-)
...kam letzte Nacht vorbei, wahrscheinlich um bei mir in Frieden zu sterben. Sie sitzt immer noch dort hinten, aber rührt sich kaum mehr.

Fitzgerald Falls, Monroe, New York (Orange County)
I think I've mentioned before that the woods where this waterfall is located is an unusual place. There is strange light and dark shadows, random tumbled stones, and dead fallen trees all along the trail. But it was still somehow a fun place to spend the afternoon in the forest with the sunlight shifting in and out of the clouds.
Barbitistes serricauda (Orthoptera, Phaneropteridae) male.
Photographed with the Sigma fisheye lens on a 8 mm long extension tube. Body length of the katydid is about 20 mm.
Lit with a diffused twin flash.
A few months ago I discovered this unusual location, a reconstructed Black-house in the Allean Forest beside Loch Tummel, and was immediately impressed by the mood of the lighting (or lack of) inside. So yesterday I took a friend to model, a chair and a load of flashes and other lighting tricks including a Rogue Flashbender curled into a snoot.
I’d had this effect in mind ever since the first visit - blending two photos with and without model in the way, with some blur and glow to give the impression of a ghost remembering what it was like to live in the black house for real, a couple of centuries ago.
A favourite view, with the line of the Highland Boundary Fault running along a tree-covered dip in the landscape between Stare Bridge Viewpoint and Rohallion Lodge.

Beside the fact that I can hardly pass up light poles or power lines and poles and towers, I have an affinity for the time of day when there is still some daylight and the electric lights go on. The color of the electric lights have a special presence that passes when night comes on.
I think that one of my "perfect picture" goals is to really capture what grabs me at this time of the day. But I'm thinking I will need to use a tripod to capture that moment, which of course is less convenient and sometimes not possible in every location.
This is not a repost...exactly. It is a very similar photo edited in a very different way. I am really working hard to improved my post processing techniques so that they are less noticeable. No frequency separation here and very simplified dodge and burn. It is a work in progess

Reflected light from the sunset glimmering on the surface of the River Tay as it wends its way out from Perth.

Salamandra salamandra (Caudata, Salamandridae).
Wide angle photo taken with Canon EOS 5DII + Sigma 15/2.8 EX fisheye lens at ƒ/18, 1/25 sec., ISO 400. Illuminated with a soft boxed twin flash. Slightly cropped image.
London, November 2014
(Very similar to the previous one which was processed on a phone and whilst it looked fine on the phone, it wasn't quite the same on a PC screen for some reason.)
While out a few evenings back in the area below the Burlington Bay Skyway between Hamilton, Ontario and its neighbouring city, Burlington, Ontario, I found myself trying to photograph the dual spans of the skyway (background) as it passes over the Burlington Bay Canal as well as the old lift bridge in the foreground. I had found a position on the East pier of the canal to let me get the skyline of downtown Hamilton in the background as well. As I set up, the horn on the lift bridge sounded signaling a ship was about to pass through. The lift bridge raised out of the way and then a large barge proceeded through while I left the shutter open for a fairly long time, thereby getting a good exposure for the scene overall (complete with a few fishermen) and allowing the barge lights to provide some coloured streaks. The result of the crazy mixed lights was the colours seen in the image. - JW
