Radio Kootwijk Netherlands series: image # 1
Radio Kootwijk is a small town in the Dutch municipality of Apeldoorn, with ca. 120 inhabitants. It is situated in a heather- and forest-rich territory in the Veluwe region, east of the sandhills of the Kootwijkerzand and the town of Kootwijk.
The housing accommodations of Radio Kootwijk arose as a result of the building of a shortwave transmitter site with the same name, starting in 1918. The transmitters played an important role in the 20th century as a communication facility between the Netherlands and its then colony of Dutch East Indies. In 1923 Dutch PTT started trans-oceanic telegraphy using a longwave transmitter (a 400KW high frequency alternator) from the German Telefunken company under the callsign PCG, in the 24 kHz and 48 kHz. By 1925 the longwave transmitter was changed by a shortwave tube based, electronic transmitter which had a much better performance due to the better propagation of shortwaves. With this new technology, in 1928 a radio-telephonic connection was established. At the end of World War II, the German occupying forces blew up the transmitter. Afterward some of the radio towers were rebuilt.[1]
Due to the development of new technologies like satellite communication, Radio Kootwijk lost its position as main overseas wireless connection point of the Netherlands. In 1980, the last transmission mast was blown up. In 2004 the park lost its last transmitter functions, and was transferred from the KPN company (successor to PTT) to the State Forestry Commission, which started attracting new buyers. The main building of the former transmitter park, designed by Dutch architect Jules Maria Luthmann and named 'Building A' or 'The Sfynx' (journalist refer to it as a cathedral, which it is not), was officially appointed as a monument. It was used as scenery for the American film Mindhunters in 2004.

Yesterday (10/15) was my 17th birthday! A lot of you probably thought i was an adult, but I'm actually only 17. So now you know ! :)
This is a wider version of my most popular shot ever (46k views) that i posted last week, so i figured you wouldn't mind. Can't get over this sunset!
Before I went home for the Holiday's, I finally agreed to to teach my first Private Workshop! To be honest I didn't think I would like it but I was proved completely wrong. I loved it! I did an 8-hour workshop going through my workflow, photo backup, lightroom, photoshop and so on. We then went and shot an incredible sunset at Marshall Beach.
Be sure to check out Eleanor Preger's incredible shots from that night. She killed it!
One thing I went over on the beach was timing and paying attention to the water. I use a remote so I can catch the perfect streaks when the waves get pulled back out or the flow of the water comes in. Setting a fast shutter, mine at 1/6 of a second, allows me to grab a few shots just as the waves come at you.

A small, broken seashell reflected on a gloss black floor tile and split toned. I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's something about this composition that makes me feel uneasy. But I decided to go with it and see what reaction it generates in others.

ABOUT THIS IMAGE
Flowing Falls Into Froth Like Lace
McWay Falls in Big Sur, California is an incredibly scenic waterfall. McWay Creek drops 84 ft. off a cliff onto the beach nestled in a pretty little cove. The overlook view of the cove where the waterfall drops, is stunning to say the least. Unfortunately, you cannot get down onto the scenic beach (legally), as the cliffs are too crumbly and dangerous to descend (and if you try it, be prepared to receive a very hefty fine). I think, though, if it were possible to get down to the beach, this waterfall would lose something of its grandeur and mystique. The view is stunning, and the waterfall is alluring and out of reach. It adds to the beauty in my opinion.
The great thing about McWay Falls is that it flows year-round. The waterfall is fed from underground springs on McWay Creek, and the waterfall thus has constant flow throughout the year (though of course, the flow is stronger in the spring).
The path continues past the waterfall a short distance to some ruins of an old stone "waterfall house", owned by Lathrop and Helen Hooper Brown in the 1940s. Not much is left of the house, but it is an interesting site. The park was named after Browns friend, Julia Pfeiffer Burns, who was a pioneer and cattle ranch owner in the Big Sur area. There is also an awesome view of the Big Sur coastline in the other direction. The entire Big Sur coastline is outstanding. The best photo opportunities of McWay Falls and the coastline are at sunset. I highly recommend being at McWay Falls at sunset, though it is a popular place for other photographers and sunset gawkers.

ABOUT THIS IMAGE
Lalush’s Beast
I saw an image of this rock a Flickr contact had beautifully made and vowed to find and photograph it. I emailed him asking for the location with no response. I even used Google Earth trying to locate this rock. It was more difficult because the photographer had used a 15mm lens down low and very close making the rock look huge. After a 4 month search I finally saw the rock for the first time. It was right in front of my nose at a location I frequent many times. It took 3 times of going back before the conditions were somewhat close to capturing an image. The tide was too low, kids were climbing all over it, there weren’t any clouds or the sand was trampled. Finally I was able to click a few frames, but the sky was blown out. It was a very contrasty scene. So I salvaged another image of a beautiful long exposed sky I had taken months earlier a mile north of this location and merged the two.

This image was taken on day one of the "rising" before the "shine" at 3am to catch the light with my Palm beach Photographic Centre's workshop with the Buffalo Bill Center in Cody Wyoming.... An hour and a half drive fueled only by the french press cup of Peet's ((the 50/50 blend Arabian Mocha Sanani/French roast I have found makes the best cup of coffee I have ever had.) AND yes I do travel with a grinder and whole beans and a french press). This image was shot on June 21st, the longest day of the year and that far north Sunrise comes really early. Must admit every one of us forgot how tired we were when we saw this.
Image wast taken with a D610 with a 24-120mm Nano coated VR lens recorded to a 128GB Lexar flash card used post processing with Capture NX 2 then Photoshop CC and Nik Colorefex 4.0, Induro C414 carbon fiber tripod and BH3 ball head

ABOUT THIS IMAGE
Morning Serenity II
(I was going to call this “A Growing Light of Awakening,” but through a mishap I had previously named it as it is on another site.)
I sat there as my camera was exposing for 10 minutes and 52 seconds, always hoping for a correct exposure. I contemplated my surroundings and enjoyed the fresh, clean air, seabirds and the sounds of the ocean. I breathed in deeply and serenity engulfed me. It was a glorious morning and I didn't care if the image worked or not.

My friend slipped walking on the moss!
I'm reading my "Outdoor Photographer" magazine i get monthly as i type this, and i see this quote "The shot that's the hardest to get is the shot you want." :)
This is what I looked at this morning out my bedroom window.
I am now heading for a bit of cabin fever again I think...
more snow yesterday and over night...and still falling....
And we thought we were finished with it.....
Left my house last night to do a 15min trip
and turned back after an 1hour plus.....
:-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-(
So if any of you are out and about
Be safe if you are walking or driving...
Thanks for stopping by.....
While this is not one of my best photos; it is definitely decent enough to be posted. A major issue with point-and-shoot cameras is that they cannot be adjusted quickly for different lighting conditions.
I used Topaz Adjust and Nik Sofware's Color Efex Pro to compensate a bit for the lighting conditions.
