View down one of the side streets at UCSD (University of California, San Diego). It is one of the most modern universities I have seen.
Men exercise on a streetside "fitness centre".
Dalian, Sept 2008
I feel I'm neither finding many street situations right now, nor composing well what I do find, but I got sufficient motivation last night to wander for 2km through downtown Dalian with a 50mm (80mm on DSLR). Although when I began taking photos seriously I used almost nothing but a 50mm prime lens, these days having now used wide angle a lot, I seem to find it harder to "see" this distance. With a wide you first get in close to the subject then try and frame it with whatever geometry, blocks of space, colour, or any significant details around it. With a 50mm though you kinda have to pick the frame first, and stand back. Having learned to get "in there" it feels odd now to have to stand back. I might even sell my 50mm.
In a couple of days I go to Beijing, then Pingyao, then fly down to Guizhou province, and then maybe more places afterwards. So this will be my last activity on Flickr for a while. Hopefully I'll bring back plenty to upload as i'll be shooting projects.
ravenglass-railway.co.uk/ Many regard the seven-mile line as the most beautiful train journey in England. One thing is for certain, for those who visit the Lake District and never venture beyond Windermere and Bowness they are certainly missing something special. Our part of the Western Lake District is a quieter, calmer place, an area of outstanding natural beauty, pretty villages and home to England's highest mountains.
Most visitors start their journey at Ravenglass, often calling in the Turntable café to enjoy the best in home-baking. The trains travel from Ravenglass across tidal Barrow Marsh, home to many birds, including oyster catchers and ringed plovers. The first intermediate station at Muncaster Mill is a request stop. Passing the old water-mill, now a private residence, the train wends its way into Miterdale, still a haven for red squirrels and far away from roads, cars and other signs of modern life. Views of craggy Muncaster Fell dominate, although all should look out for our unique boat-type shelter at Miteside halt.
Probably the most spectacular point of all in Miterdale is Rock Point, a place where the line swings around a rugged promontory high above the river and affording good views of the Scafell range, particularly in winter. The train passes over Walk Mill summit and the line heads straight as an arrow before reaching Irton Road, the main passing place on the line. Look out for Saddleback pigs foraging on the adjacent land!
Irton Road station, the only original building on the line, serves the western end of Eskdale Green village. From here, the line falls some 20 feet to the valley of the River Esk and the skyline is dominated from now by craggy Harter Fell which stands some 2160 feet above sea level. After passing through Eskdale Green Station the engines climb the steepest section of the line known as Hollinghow Bank.
The scene changes once more, as the lone hugs the northern side of valley, providing a break between the ruggedness of the bracken clad hillside and the softer, farmland below. The local Herdwick sheep abound, deer are frequently seen in the woods and buzzards circle in the sky.
A further request stop at Fisherground, mainly used by holidaymakers staying at the nearby campsite, follows, before the line arrives at Gilbert's cutting, undoubtedly one of the most photographic points on the line. The railway runs on a ledge above the valley road, passing the old 250' quarry face at Beckfoot and a final request stop.
The last section of the line takes the form of a further steep climb through Beckfoot Wood, before levelling out and curving round to the new station and visitor centre at Dalegarth, which nestles at the foot of England's highest mountains.
I love how the morning light streams in through the blinds creating patterns on everything.
Lots of parallel lines here!

Nandgaon | India | 2015
More I travel across my beautiful country of India, more I get fascinated by the magical power this place embraces. Its a country which just happens to hold on to its traditions, cultures and charm with ease. Holi at Nandgoan further reassured me of those above said facts. The sheer passion with which the festival is celebrated is beyond words.

So many parallel lines, so many colours, aaahhh, aren't we lucky?
Thank you, M, (*_*)

Part of Bristol Light Festival 2025
Parallels is an immersive installation that uses the precision of lasers and mirrors to transform moving footage into floating abstractions of light. Inspired by movements and tones found in the natural world, Parallels uses footage of natural phenomena to offer a transcendent experience of light and sound. Set to a soundtrack by Max Cooper. Best viewed after dark.

Reflection from the Cloud Gate sculpture in Chicago's Millennium Park

Tonight’s sunset. Some well-positioned aircraft vapor trails and diagonal cloud patterns helped produce this fascinating abstract. I shot this one fully intending to post-process it this way. :-)
I used ArcSoft's PhotoStudio to assemble this abstract.
Lake Erie, Ashtabula Ohio – February 14, 2008
In this unbelievable universe in which we live there are no absolutes. Even parallel lines, reaching into infinity, meet somewhere yonder.
-Pearl Buck
Processing some stuff from a couple of years ago...another version of the Sunset on Turtle Lake. The cloud cover moved fast which created scenes that looked dramatically different from one another. I was lucky to experience such beautiful colors, not something I get the chance to see often.

This is the parallel field which was imaged simultaneously alongside the MACS1149 cluster. It gives you a good idea of what this piece of space would look like if there were not a large cluster sitting within the field of view. One can clearly see there are no skinny, arcing galaxies because there is no obvious gravitational lensing going on.
Imaged in two wideband visible (filter peaks at 435nm and 606nm) and one near-infrared filter (814nm) the collection of galaxies is naturally quite colorful and requires no special modifications to bring out these colors whatsoever. There are only four Milky Way stars that I can count. Everything else is galaxies. Another sample of the Universe. Hubble and its team make this whole business of collecting billions year-old photons look like a piece of cake.
Later this year, Hubble will image this space again in longer near-infrared wavelengths, allowing us to see an even deeper image.
This chunk o' Universe was imaged for the Frontier Fields campaign.

North is NOT up. It is 32° clockwise from up.
