This image shows the upper, rotating part of a small, Christmas ornament. Below this there is a tea-light candle, the hot air of which forces the wind-turbine to rotate. Suspended from every other blade of the turbine is a small star-shaped piece of metal. The whole assembly is 75 mm x 75 mm.
The only source of illumination was the single tea-light candle beneath the assembly shown here; this resulted in a 80 second exposure.
Converted to mono in Silver Efex Pro and then split toning applied in Lightroom.
HMM to everyone and many thanks to everyone who views, faves and comments on this image and the others in my photostream.
Kind of all over the place with my processing. Have more images from Ireland and Oregon to work on but I get bored! I guess that is what I do. I get bored with a set, leave it for a while, then return to it later as I did here with this image from a few months ago.
Another fantastic day out with the Ragged Victorians, Re-Enactment group.

A clear, moonless night at Pfeiffer Beach in Big Sur, California.
Jim Weise (www.wiseguysvisuals.com) pictured here was going a little light painting on the famous keyhole rock for one of his own shots. I thought I'd sneak in a quick 10 second exposure while he worked. The Nikon Df is one heck of a camera for low-light shooting.
Some dusty old jars of an un-known substance covered in cobwebs at the abandoned Maison Kirsch.

Here we are, back again from exciting travels. Unexpected physical and emotional challenges were present through this trip which added yet another dynamic to an already busy vacation. Hiking, camping, and family were the true focus of this trip for me. The healing that would accompany that was what I was after. I’ve used my photography to that end as well and what better setting that the U.S. Rockies to stretch my creative muscles.
We split this trip up into two sections. The first section of the trip was spent in Estes Park, CO. There we camped at 8,100 feet at the Moraine Park Campground inside Rocky Mountain National Park. This is easily my favorite camping experience if only for the setting itself. More on that with later photos. The second half of the trip was spent just south of downtown Colorado Springs, CO camping at Cheyenne Mountain State Park. While RMNP has to be my favorite overall experience, my favorite campsite as far as layout goes to my walk-in campsite at CMSP. Again, more on that with more photo editing.
This first photo is an 8 shot panoramic I snapped of Nymph Lake, our first lake on the Emerald Lake Trail inside RMNP. The whole family made this leg of the hike, which made me very proud of everyone involved. It was a beautiful and windy day when we made the hike, which made the unseasonably warm weather easier to deal with. The views were all stunning and just kept getting better, but this sure was a great payoff view to start the trip off on our first hike. I can’t wait to get to more edits of this vacation so I can share them with you and relive this trip as well. Enjoy!

Lake Drummond is one of two natural lakes found in Virginia. It is located at the heart of The Great Dismal Swamp. The hike out to this location is six miles from where you park. This is a view along the Western shore, looking North (taken at about 1:15pm). It was a long, long walk.
There's quite a bit of history regarding this magnificent wilderness. Check it out on Wikipedia

Rudolf Stolz, bekannt vor allem durch sein Meisterwerk, den 1924 geschaffenen “Totentanz” (Fresken) am Sextner Friedhof, wurde 1874 in Bozen geboren. 1943 übersiedelte er nach Sexten. Wie seine Brüder Ignaz und Albert, war Rudolf Stolz ein Anhänger des Historien- und Genremalers Franz Defregger. Zusammen mit seinem Bruder Ignaz verwaltete er auch das Erbe des österreichischen Malers Albin Egger-Lienz. 1960 starb Rudolf Stolz in Moos bei Sexten.
Bereits zu Lebzeiten wurde Rudolf Stolz für seine Werke geehrt, z.B. mit der Verleihung des Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart-Preises (1940) und der Ehrenmitgliedschaft im Südtiroler Künstlerbund (1958). Wenige Jahre nach seinem Tod ließ die Gemeinde am Hauptplatz von Sexten ein Museum nach den Plänen des Schwiegersohnes, Architekt Erich Pattis, errichten. In zwei Schauräumen konnten dort über 160 Bilder und Skizzen zu Fresken, dazu zahlreiche Aquarelle und Studien ausgestellt werden. 1969 wurde das Museum eröffnet. 2010, anlässlich des 50. Todestages, wurde der Hauptraum dann neu gestaltet, großformatige Bilder neu gerahmt und die Sonderausstellung “Die Malerbrüder Stolz” gezeigt. 2011 wurde das Museum um die Dauerausstellung “Rudolf und Albert Stolz als Kriegsmaler 1915/16″ ergänzt.
Der bereits erwähnte “Totentanz” am Friedhofseingang in Sexten zieht zahlreiche Kunstliebhaber an. Siebenmal erscheint im Werk der Tod und tanzt mit verschiedenen Menschen. Und alle sind in seiner Macht… Daneben hat Rudolf Stolz auch die Fresken im Inneren des 1929-1931 erbauten Hotels “Drei Zinnen” geschaffen, die aber nur für Hotelgäste zu besichtigen sind. In Bozen, seiner Geburtsstadt, ist eine Grundschule nach Rudolf Stolz benannt.
