This weekend i was back in the place where i did the first mountain hike, but this time a totally different season and much more difficult to walk as well because of the snow and some very dirty locations. The weather was not that promising but i decided to wait for the sunset anyway, and on the road to my favorite locations i came across this scene which i liked, and i spend almost half an hour finding a composition that suits my taste
I did use only 2 exposures, the -1 and 0 ev to blend this shot, and i wanted to create a different kind of mood on this shot that i usually do, and i think i have achieved that... Let me know if you like it I did use some very recent techniques i have been learning in developing the images i like and i think im getting to the point i have always wanted to be, but that process takes a lot of time and practice
Hope you like it, feel free to share the images

(...) we can make our own.
One of my friends was with me when I took this shot. He said that in the moment he saw that man passing he knew I would take the shot and exactly how this shot would look like. Let me see if he gets his confirmation ;)
Thank you to all for your comments, faves, notes and expos!.-

This was the residence of the chief retainer of the house of Doi that ruled the Koga domain. The Takami family held the hereditary position of chief retainer. The house dates back to 1633 and was built with extra wood that wasn’t used for the construction of Koga Castle’s 3rd floor. The most famous chief retainer of the Doi clan was Takami Senseki (1785-1758) who also served as respected advisor to the Tokugawa shogunate as an advisor on all things “western”. A student of Dutch studies, Senseki was instrumental in creating modern maps of Japan and engaging in the diplomatic negotiations with the western powers in the waning days of the Shogunate. Senseki was fond of corresponding in Dutch and even signed his letters under the pen name Jan Hendrik Daper. An extensive collection of his work is on display at the Koga City History Museum.
Koga City, in Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan, has a history that dates back to ancient Jomon times and was even mentioned in the Man’yōshu anthology of poems that was compiled in the AD 800s. During the Muromachi period, Koga became the base for the Kantō branch of Ashikaga under the leadership of Shigeuji, who led a rebellion against the Ashikaga shogunate.
During the Edo period (1603-1868), the fief of Koga was ruled by many hereditary daimyo whose families had pledged loyalty to Tokugawa Ieyasu prior to the battle of Sekigahara in 1600. The families that ruled Koga included the Ogasawara, various branches of the Matsudaira, Okudaira, Nagai, Honda and Doi. Perhaps Doi Toshikatsu, who became tairō (chief elder of the council of elders - rōjū) during the reign of Shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu, was the most famous ruler of Koga.
Another famous ruler of Koga was Doi Toshitsura (1789-1848), who is sometimes called the “The Snow Lord”. Apart from being a key advisor to the Tokugawa shogunate, he was the first person in Japan to seriously study the designs of snowflakes. He illustrated his findings in a book Sekka Zusetsu (Pictorial Illustrations of Snowflakes) and some of the patterns became popular for clothing and decorative purposes.
Today, there is nothing left of the Edo period Koga castle, but numerous old temples, shrines, samurai and farmer homes remain. Unfortunately, many of these buildings suffered damage during the magnitude 9.0 earthquake that struck northeastern Japan on March 11, 2011 and repairs were ongoing when I visited.

Really struggled for time and inspiration for this one. Unfortunately didn't work out quite as I envisaged, but hey - not every photo can be a masterpiece!. Still it's a photo for the day!!
After Waking Jack and a good breakfast in Rochester, we went back up to Bluebell Hill for a walk through the wood in the rain to the Whitehorse Stone. Because we are basically a pair of mad old hippies who don't know any better.

I took the Olympus OM-10 to work with me on Monday and grabbed the chance to go for a walk lunchtime. My office is right next to Blackfriars Station so I did a circular tour from there over the Millenium Bridge, back past the Tate and back across Blackfriars Bridge. Am pleased with how some of the shots came out. More to follow. Best viewed in Black.

Voilà, il y a du vert au Sud, quand même.
ese es el caminito que hace mi vecino para llegar a sus conejos. Y con metros de nieve igual.
Some green is trying to make it !
