Fall in Minnesota is exquisite pain. The multi-colored beauty of sunrises, sunsets and fall foliage threatens to overload the senses. But behind all that we experience, there is a whisper warning us it won't last. Whatever.
My first attempt at HDR so yes, I did go overboard!
3 Exposures, steadied the camera on the bridge railing. Used Photomatix tone mapping and Photoshop for noise reduction, sharpening etc.
For centuries, Boudhanath Stupa has been an important pilgrimage site for Tibetan Buddhists.
The streets outside the temple are pure chaos!

Cuteness overload alert! This trio of recently fledged barred owlets last spring had just been delivered a meal by mama, who subsequently took off. Not the best technically, but I'm thrilled to have some live action memories since my stills did not turn out so well; it was late in the day and and the remaining sunlight was not in the optimal direction. If your sound is on you will hear loud "machine gun" firing of multiple cameras, as these babies were in a popular state park and easily accessible from a parking lot. I actually hope the parents reconsider nesting in that cavity this year.
While visiting in Vegas we had to make a stop at Fremont Street. The combination of lights, people, sound, and even the overhead zip line was sensory intensive to say the least. A far cry from the serenity and natural beauty of Valley of Fire experienced a few hours earlier!
I'm still not sure how the D800 will perform in low light at high ISO so I decided to start out slowly and used ISO 800 for these shots - no problem here with noise. My gut says it will not match the D3s but I will reserve judgement until I've had a chance to push the D800 a bit.

We have just finalized plans for our Yellowstone Fall Workshop. You can get more information on my blog.

When it feels like losing the ground below the feet, taking a time-out to reconsider the situation might be the only promising option.
My answering machine is full of election messages and my brain is full of confusing ballot propositions. But I have voted and must simply wait to see what happens.

Ok, sono un idiota. L'avevo scattata per il GSFP, in tempo, ma non mi convinceva... ora la modifico per benino in Post produzione e mi piace molto... vaffangalaaa D:

During Spring Break, there was a lot of leaves & branches that were cut up. So my family decided to bring out the Otto Edge since the rehrig was full.

We do get a lot of rainbows in Cork :-)
blow me down with a sausage - this made no. 5 on Explore for 19-11-07 - thx to you all !
If you look at this shot full size you can see a few faint supernumerary bands (esp the yellow/green one)
This was tough to capture as the clouds were moving at a serious speed (about 40 mph) and so the rainbows came and went very quickly.
More pics (same rainbow in fact just further up the bow) and yet more pics of supernumerary rainbows.
Info from the wikipedia on Supernumerary Rainbows: Infrequently, another beautiful and striking rainbow phenomenon can be observed, consisting of several faint rainbows on the inner side of the primary rainbow, and very rarely also outside the secondary rainbow. They are slightly detached and have pastel colour bands that do not fit the usual pattern. They are known as supernumerary rainbows, and it is not possible to explain their existence using classical geometric optics. The alternating faint rainbows are caused by interference between rays of light following slightly different paths with slightly varying lengths within the raindrops. Some rays are in phase, reinforcing each other through constructive interference, creating a bright band; others are out of phase by up to half a wavelength, cancelling each other out through destructive interference, and creating a gap. Given the different angles of refraction for rays of different colours, the patterns of interference are slightly different for rays of different colours, so each bright band is differentiated in colour, creating a miniature rainbow. Supernumerary rainbows are clearest when raindrops are small and of similar size. The very existence of supernumerary rainbows was historically a first indication of the wave nature of light, and the first explanation was provided by Thomas Young in 1804.
there is an even more indepth discussion of supernumerary bows at this most excellent site.
All three of these last shots are taken from our house in Co. Cork, Ireland (but not all on the same day!)
Argh - I tried adding smoke coming out of the outlet and I just couldn't get it to look realistic enough. I decided to stick with this simple version.

In the age of digital media more and more people are experiencing information overload. Introducing well thought out infographics into your communication mix can be a good way to make your information and ideas more "sticky".
This photograph was taken from Dhaka's Airport Train Station. People were returning home during Eid Holiday to celebrate. Eid Ul Fitar with their family. There were no seat inside the train but they took maximum risk to join their family during Festival
Sometimes our heads get overloaded with daydreams and our imagination goes too far. Or is there such a thing as too far? Sky's the limit.
With enough EMD's to make just about any railfan rejoice and forget for a moment about the ge world we live in, T4 heads west just out of Eagle as they hustle parallel to highway 59. Not many railroads today can offer this good of a lash, and do it with some consistency.

India - I think it has a load of cotton bolls. The wheel dropped off ! :)
Sights like this are common in India - a lot of the time it is the camels who carry loads similar to this (relative in size). You just see legs and a head. :)

Blue Bell's chocolate ice cream is terrific all by itself, but adding peanut butter cups and cookie dough adds up to one delicious treat. (It also adds up to 280 calories, but at this point, who cares?)
Even better, the store required the purchase of two to qualify for the sale price (which is the only way I can afford this stuff) so there's another half-gallon of Cookies & Cream after this tub bites the dust.
