We took a sunrise hike at Lost Dutchman State Park in Apache Junction, Arizona yesterday. That's Superstition Mountain behind Jasper. I think it's a dramatic looking mountain with it's sheer cliffs and spikey bits at the base. The slightly hazy atmosphere gave it almost a painterly look yesterday.

 

At first Jasper was a little slow on our hike. He's 10.5 years old and he moves pretty good, but he's not quite as spry as he was at 5. But then we saw a herd of deer prancing through the desert. Well that's what it takes to motivate our old boy. He practically dragged us up that mountain. Very exciting indeed.

 

Thank you in advance for your support

motivation is all what one needs :-)

About the location:

Last night I was lazing around the house, not really motivated to do anything. At around 2:00am I realized that sunrise was only a couple of hours away so I checked the Yahoo weather map conveniently located in the titlebar in Flickr, and it was showing a thin cloud layer to the west moving around 5 mph in my direction. This location is only 35 minutes from my house so I decided that I would stay up through the night and get a super early start. I always face a difficult choice on my way up into the mountains. If I head west on Hwy 138 then I have only this view without any backup locations, but if I head east I have several other options but no view that includes the city, so I have to feel pretty confident about the cloud coverage to head west but I could feel the light coming on this morning. This is a view over Lone Pine Canyon road, the city in the distance, because of the angle looks like one but is actually 3 cities, San Bernardino, Redlands and Beaumont blending together and leading up to Mount San Jacinto in the background.

 

About the shot:

This was shot using a technique in which you trick the camera into thinking something it's not seeing. I first set the camera to spot metering and metered the sky. Then it set the camera to underexpose by 2 stops switch to manual focus and refocus on the city lights, then I light painted the foreground with a couple of lights at a WB of 5000k.

 

Thank you for taking the time to visit and as always, your views, comments, faves, and support are greatly appreciated!! :)

 

If you have any questions about this photo or about photography in general, I will do my best to help, just post a comment or send me a Flickr mail and I will respond as quickly as possible.

Someone asked me recently if my St-Paul Island Album on FLickr reflects what you can see when you visit the Island... the answer is Yes and No. At the time of the year we were there ie end of July, some of the species are already starting to quit the Island. It was for example almost impossible to see a Red Legged Kittiwake after the first day we arrived. So we ended up seeing less than 20 species of birds, the fur seals and the Pribilof Subspecies of the Arctic Fox. However, over 300 species of birds have been recorded in the Pribilofs. Spring and Fall apparently are very good for rare birds visiting from Asia... I only remember seeing a couple of vagrants while visiting the Island. I have several photos from St-Paul which have never been processed but all the species encountered are at least represented once in the album. When you return from a trip, you get motivated to process a bunch but then you get saturated or busy with other trips and activities and several good pictures remain dormant.... until things get quiet again like this weekend. I may post a few more from St-Paul Island over the coming days. St-Paul Island can be a challenging destination to reach but it is among the prettiest location of Alaska I have seen and it can be extremely rewarding for the wildlife photographer.... and no... Nobody has paid me to say that :)

Vast potential in the right hands.

Hope your day is off to a good start? I must admit that this seasons transition period can be a bit boring here in Chicago. I’m struggling to stay motivated lately but I’m excited about new IR season being just around the corner. This was shot with IR Chrome filter. What do you think?

Last night Richard an I engaged in one of our hour-long phone conversations in which we exchanged insights on life and art. He has survived his first encounter with COVID, and it motivated him to try painting digitally. His results have been phenomenal. I create this piece in honor of his fine character and his extraordinary artwork. We also discussed some upcoming changes to the PANO-Vision group which we hope will rejuvenate interest in it. Thanks, Richard, for all that you do.

There I was, wondering how a book report on Steinbeck’s “The Grapes of Wrath” is supposed to help me crush a future job interview. Honestly, maybe I just think way too much.

 

I hope you like it.

The honey bee is only motivated to collect pollen and nectar for the hive, but while doing so she unwitting provides a service to the hazel as she helps to disperse pollen grains into the breeze.

 

BTW I don't often photograph honey bees, and I know some of the bee groups on Flickr actually ban them because they are not truly wild bees (though some are feral). But I thought this was an interesting thing to see.

Of course she was motivating me to stay home and give her cheese instead of going for a bike ride… but still motivating me.

A Honey Bee focused on working the flowers. The only processing here is reducing the saturation for this effect.

The thing is: I don't have any new pictures, I was busy rearranging my living room and all in all I'm not really motivated.

Today was one of those lazy days when it comes to photography, I kept putting off picking up the camera and finally as the light was starting to sink I figured I'd better get moving.

 

What better for a day of procrastinating than a photo of a motivator... that and I was a little stumped on inspiration and coffee is always a good model!

 

Anyway hope everyone has had a good day, and a Happy Independence Day to all my American friends!

*Working Towards a Better World

 

Appreciation is a wonderful thing: It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well. -

Voltaire

 

The more one does and sees and feels, the more one is able to do, and the more genuine may be one's appreciation of fundamental things like home, and love, and understanding companionship. - Amelia Earhart

 

The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page. - Saint Augustine

 

Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.

Mary Ritter Beard

 

A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving. - Lao Tzu

 

I've always enjoyed traveling and having experience with different cultures and different people. But it's also a wonderful thing to be able to benefit and enable research, not only in our country but around the world. -

Laurel Clark

 

I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.

Robert Louis Stevenson

 

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page. - St. Augustine

 

The use of traveling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are. - Samuel Johnson

 

We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open. - Jawaharial Nehru

 

Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends. -

Maya Angelou

 

Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white. - Mark Jenkins

 

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo❤️

France, Alsace, Strasbourg, medieval bridge “Ponts Couverts”, the covered Bridges over the L’Ill, built from 1230 to 1250 on four arms of the Ill to protect the city. In the middle ages they were wooden bridges with a roof, therefore the name, protected by four square stone towers. Along the centuries, the bridges were modified & built in stone, finally when the progresses of artillery made them useless as a protection of the city, the roofs were removed but the name remained.

Muse closes Rock in Rio 2019 in a fancy show with a sci-fi face.

 

Oct 7th., 2019 - from 0:40 A.M. to 2:35 A.M.

 

Band brought great show, but part of the audience left after Imagine Dragons. Biggest news was the 'Black Mirror' look, with futuristic dancers and giant skull.

 

The end of Rock in Rio 2019 was like a science fiction movie. The Muse show was also all about Rock in Rio: arena rock and theme park look.

 

The seventh and final day of this Sunday's festival was the only one with two main attractions. But the English trio was the closing band after the Imagine Dragons Americans.

 

If the show was grand, the audience was smaller than the previous attraction as part of the audience left. But there were enough people to make big choirs like "Uprising", "Plug in baby" and "Hysteria".

 

Flasher and 'Postman'

 

The show began with army of dancing trumpeter dancers in flashing clothes. Vocalist Matt Bellamy came dressed as an android. Then the dancers come back dressed in something like nuclear power plant workers.

 

Bellamy's clothes vary throughout the show. On the bis, rises an inflatable doll-like allegory of the giant post, with the figure of an android skeleton.

 

Iron Maiden, with their theatrical horror tour, would be jealous. Another thing I would like is Pink, who played the other great show in the Cirque Du Soleil trilogy of this Rock in Rio 2019.

 

***

 

Muse's current aesthetic is reminiscent of synthwave and vaporwave, a modernist, retro aesthetic that was in vogue a few years ago, and has recently been appropriated and adapted by far-right internet activists.

 

But apparently Muse does not support these new conservative supporters. They only arrived late on the same wave, just as they did on the album "The 2nd Law" (2012), influenced by dubstep when the serious electronic style had passed its peak.

 

Future of the guitar?

An undeniable merit is that the three make, with little help, a more impactful sound than most metal day bands, which had three people just to play the guitar.

 

They still make a U2 scheme of making the most of the stage and the catwalk, moving a lot, so that the trio is worth ten. All right, Chris Wolstenholme's way forward in the incredible bass riff of "Hysteria" is awesome.

 

The ending of Rock in Rio was a good demonstration of two bands that continue to bring rock to the masses with opposite strategies: Imagine Dragons tries to do different with little guitar and Muse tries to use a lot of guitar in different ways.

  

***

 

Muse is voted the best show of the last day of Rock in Rio 2019.

 

Imagine Dragons and Paralamas do Sucesso complete the G1 poll top 3. Festival ended this Sunday (6).

 

The Muse show ended Rock in Rio 2019 and was voted the best show on Sunday (6).

 

The English trio started at 12:20 am, later in the entire festival, had a grand sci-fi show, but part of the crowd was already gone. They took the G1 poll with 53.8% of the votes.

 

Co-headliner Imagine Dragons was second after a presentation with motivating speech and competent show on the fourth coming to Brazil.

China, Shanghai, Anting, "Shanghai Automobile Museum", officially opened an area of 11,700 square mtr, with a construction area of 27,985 square mtr, a building height of 32.45 mtr & a total exhibition area of about 10,000 square mtr to the public in January 2007.

According to its functions, the interior space of the Shanghai Automobile Museum is divided into five parts; the historical museum, the collection hall, the exploration hall, the temporary exhibition area & the conference & leisure area.

The Collection Pavilion stages milestones in automobile development from the years 1900 to 1975 with a collection of 39 classic & antique cars of more than 20 brands. Highlighted, on shiny aluminium platforms, are so-called "dream machines", dream cars that were considered unaffordable at all times. Original design products as well as films, photos & sound complete the automotive experience & allow visitors to immerse themselves in bygone times. The Collection Pavilion is located on the first upper floor of the Shanghai Auto Museum.

All-in-all, there are around 100 cars on display in the museum, dating back to the earliest automobiles from the late 19th century to the modern electric cars of this era. The accompanying documentation is also very well done, in both English & Chinese, also French & German-language audio guides.

 

The Shanghai Automobile Museum is a five-storey building with the essence of communication & integration of space, visual penetration & communication. The building’s façade is covered with a large area of transparent glass, allowing to enjoy the natural landscape of the surrounding park, there are several different levels of terraces, roof terraces & the interior of the building is designed to be open & closed.

The shape design of the venue uses a flowing curve, symbolizing the trajectory of the car at high speed, reflecting the sporty theme of the car museum & its architecture is also like a superimposed book, metaphorizing the museum’s knowledge & cultural taste.
