Well here it is, my favourite shot taken in Cornwall last week (and probably of the year so far). This was the one of the views from the balcony of our lodge, taken early in the morning just as the sun was rising. The position of the bird on the wire couldn't have been more perfect.

I have seen so many great images of Convict Lake with the fall colors on
flickr.com I decided to go up and try and catch some of that fall color for
myself. (See my previous images) So I headed off on the long drive over to
the Eastern Sierra. As it turned out Convict Lake had experienced an early
freeze which had turned the trees brown. To boot the day I picked was right
in the middle of a $10,000 fishing tournament. Needless to say fishermen
lined the banks and boats filled the lake as the sun arrived so it was a
good thing I turned up early as I managed to squeeze off a few shots as the
sunlight just started to cause Mt. Laurel to glow.
I dragged my camera and tripod out at O dark-thirty and stood there freezing
my butt off on the shores of the lake. The sun had not yet rose
sufficiently to actually light Mt. Laurel but the stars were awesome. Even
at a 30 second exposure the image needed some lightning and noise reduction
in Photoshop but turned out great. The light you see on Mt. Laurel in this
image is referred to as Alpine Glow and occurs before the mountain was
directly being lit by the rising sun. The stars are streaked slightly
showing you just how much the Earth rotates in 30 seconds.
Convict lake sits at the base if Mt. Laurel (11,812 ft). In the spring you
can see small waterfalls on the far side of the lake and a good size stream
feeds the lake. Convict Lake sits just off Highway 395 which is one of
most spectacular drives you can take in the US. It starts in the stark
deserts of Southern California and runs along the back side of the Sierra
Mountains which just up suddenly out of the high desert. I highly recommend
this drive to photographers in both spring and then once again in the fall.

مابنكسر صابر لو فرصتي تمضي
والحظ لو عاثر بصنع انا حظي
لو تنثر احلامي برجع ارتبها
ولو تصعب ايامي بعيش وما احسبها
يامسهل الدنيا مهما تعاندنا
عادي التعب عادي والهم هو ملحه
ولو مالحزن بادي مانفهم الفرحه
مابنكسر صابر لو فرصتي تمضي
والحظ لو عاثر بصنع انا حظي
Instruction #38
“I belong here where you arranged for me to meet your son for the first time. He never came. I’m……………..”
An evening stroll around Bristol Docks snapping but not happy. Just about to go for a coffee and I saw this sad message chalked upon the dockside. It can’t have been there long with all the rain we have been having.
Not defending this or saying it's good.
But this is me thinking about how I can possibly get done what I need to.
Noting green boards as I followed the Canadian Pacific mainline northwest between Velva and Minot, North Dakota, I pulled off of ND 52 into the town of Sawyer, framed up by the elevator and waited. Approaching at 60 mph CP GE #8622 flew past with mostly empty containers while DPU CP 8926 gave assistance. The show was over in a minute.

This is Sundays run over to the mud cobra field ;-0
Note the color of the splash, that's Not mud color !
Heavy toxic laden foliage killers, such as
"Agent Orange", leaves a reddish color !
Last Sunday we only stayed 33 minutes
then came straight home and did a real
thorough decontamination scrub-down.
Might be awhile before we
return to the mud cobra field.
Sad, as I've been taking dogs
over there for about 11 years.
There's no other place 2 go !
Thanks for stopping by and a
big thanks 4 your support ;-)

First view:
"From row 16 backward / the prices are USD 60 / and it is advised / to bring binoculars / to see the pianist strike / the chords. // It should be memorized / that Strawinski Igor, / once played the piano / though only three notes."
Second view:
"These words were found on a have digested sheet of paper: 'In a forlorn barnyard / I found some conserved wooden boards / that by adjustment with my jigsaw / delivered dozens of identical elements. // By repetitive fixing on iron threads / these small bats / via parts of felt / can hit other woven metal threads.
The whole assemblage / I feel can be used to play minimal musix. Preliminary name is a pianola'.
With some difficulty, I think the signature reads Carl Bechstein"
Creating a little special atmosphere around my grand piano... hope you all like it my friends =)
