Oltrepo Pavese, 45th parallel north. Very harsh light, I recommend a walk from Pietra de' giorgi to Lirio during the sunset.
The 45th parallel north is a circle of latitude that is 45 degrees north of Earth's equator. It crosses Europe, Asia, the Pacific Ocean, North America, and the Atlantic Ocean. The 45th parallel north is often called the halfway point between the equator and the North Pole, but the true halfway point is 16.0 km (9.9 mi) north of it (approximately between 45°08'36" and 45°08'37") because Earth is an oblate spheroid; that is, it bulges at the equator and is flattened at the poles.
At this latitude, the sun is visible for 15 hours 37 minutes during the summer solstice, and 8 hours 46 minutes during the winter solstice. The midday Sun stands 21.6° above the southern horizon at the December solstice, 68.4° at the June solstice, and exactly 45.0° at either equinox.

Don't really know how I feel about this just yet.

i like this light.
Sempre lo stesso scopo di fronte a me..andare oltre, guardare ogni cosa con altri punti di vista.
I discovered a new dam near Durbanville on Friday afternoon... hidden from view on the top of a hill and in the middle of a canola field!
I stumbled on it quite by accident while I was walking along a farm road looking for promising compositions. I heard some ducks quacking and figured that where there are ducks... there must be water!? :)

Thought I would trot over to PortStewart this morning to greet the new day.
Wasn't the most brilliant of sun rises, I have photographed much more beautiful ones, but there was some nice cloud action going on.
Actually I didn't see this cloud action until I decided to go to the top of the cliff an hour after I arrived.
I haven't seen so many parallel clouds before, although I do believe that they may be called contrails.
And duh I have just suddenly realised that a contrail is what flows behind a plane just like the one in the photo, ergo that is why these clouds are called contrails.
Definitely having an Amanda moment!!!!
That beautiful light didn't stay long either as it got very murky, very quickly and it hasn't improved as the day has gone along.
I am still waiting for Summer!!!
In these gray days bright colored crayons can brighten up our days, all lines up in their boxes.

The two pedestrians walk apart on either side of the crossing, moving in the same direction without crossing paths. They share the same space but not the same moment. There’s no interaction, just parallel movement, which creates a quiet sense of distance between them. The lines in the road don’t just separate the space, they echo that separation between people; close, visible, and yet completely alone in their own direction.
