The short and sweet spring seems to be ending here in Texas. Constant day temperatures in the 90's and a heat that breaks you into sweat as soon as you step outside. However the evenings can still be quite nice so we have to enjoy them while they still last. We spent last Saturday night doing just that. What a place to spend an evening. I hung out with the family sitting around chatting and enjoying the nice evening. We lit a fire as the sun was setting and I decided to set the camera up to make a photo. To capture this scene the way I saw it I had to use an HDR technique and combine the three image HDR with the best photo of the fire and digitally blended this image with the tonemapped HDR.

I was just accused of stealing. My bird mosaic I did for impressed beauty had a comment from this person www.flickr.com/photos/fret/ Now the reason I am doing this is because I do not nor have I ever stolen. I am very proud of my work and I love what I do. I will not go hide in a corner while some A$@hole accuses me of stealing. I really loath nasty people. Go ahead keep accusing me....my challenge to you is PROVE IT!!! THIS IS MY WORK AND ONLY MY WORK~
Excerpt from fpf.ccidahk.gov.hk/en/location/detail.php?id=76:
Tsuen Wan Jockey Club Tak Wah Park was designed along the classical Chinese garden theme. The park, with an area of about 1.63 hectares, is located in Tsuen Wan town centre. Being a Chinese-style garden that is rarely found in Tsuen Wan, Tak Wah Park provides a fine place for relaxation in the bustling town area. Sponsored by the Hong Kong Jockey Club, construction works of the park were carried out in 2 phases. Phase I was completed in 1989, while Phase II was completed in 1995. Modelled on the setup of a classical Chinese garden, the park has rock mountains made from Taihu rock, thick foliage, ornamental lakes, ancient village houses, a "pai lau", stone bridge, a stone boat, a pavilion and a verandah. A "Chess Garden" was built in the park, where giant stone-carved pieces of Chinese chess are used to display the endgame for the deliberation of chess lovers. In addition, there are 2 theme gardens in the park, namely, "Camellia Garden" and "Herb Garden", where different species of Camellia and herb are grown. Tak Wah Gallery and Environmental Resources Centre are converted from ancient village houses on the site. They are managed by Leisure and Cultural Services Department and Environmental Protection Department respectively.

This shot was done for MACRO MONDAYS' theme of 'looking up'.
The title is a reference to the Paramore song 'Looking Up'.
My favourite of my Macro Monday shots this week is something to look up to - please take a look if you haven't already - it is one of those shots where the thumbnail doesn't do it justice!

A ria de Aveiro estende-se, pelo interior, paralelamente ao mar, numa distância de 45 quilómetros e com uma largura máxima de onze quilómetros, no sentido Este-Oeste, desde Ovar até Mira.
A Ria é o resultado do recuo do mar, com a formação de cordões litorais que, a partir do século XVI, formaram uma laguna que constitui um dos mais importantes e belos acidentes hidrográficos da costa portuguesa.
Abarca onze mil hectares, dos quais seis mil estão permanentemente alagados, desdobra-se em quatro importantes canais ramificados em esteiros que circundam um sem número de ilhas e ilhotes. Nela desaguam o rio Vouga, o Antuã, o Boco e o Fontão, tendo como única comunicação com o mar um canal que corta o cordão litoral entre a Barra e S. Jacinto, permitindo o acesso ao Porto de Aveiro, de embarcações de grande calado.
Rica em peixes e aves aquáticas, possui grandes planos de água, locais de eleição para a prática de todos os desportos náuticos. Ainda que tenha vindo a perder, de ano para ano, a importância que já teve na economia aveirense, a produção de sal, utilizando técnicas milenares, é, ainda, uma das actividades tradicionais mais características de Aveiro.
pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ria_de_Aveiro
The Aveiro Lagoon (Ria de Aveiro) is a coastal lagoon in Portugal. It is located on the Atlantic coast of Portugal, south the municipalitiy of Espinho and north of Mira (to the north of the Cape Mondego). Its average area covers approximately 75 km². It is named after the city of Aveiro, which is the chief urban centre located nearby the lagoon. Other urban centres near the Ria de Aveiro are Ílhavo, Gafanha da Nazaré, Estarreja, Ovar and Esmoriz. Some beaches nearby include those of Barra, Costa Nova, Torreira, Vagueira, Furadouro, Cortegaça and Praia de Mira. There are also beaches in the São Jacinto Peninsula.
Luz de otoño
Afuera; en las calles hay olvido de vehementes tormentas.
Afuera; desde las ramas de un árbol sigue brillando el sol.
Afuera; sopla el viento revolviendo las hojas apagadas
y el silencio se torna más mudo todavía.
Hay un gris que despierta en el aire deshojando mi aliento,
hay un rumbo que me invita a tomarlo por las veredas solitarias.
Seguirlo es, para mí, una manera de decir;
caminemos juntos.
Otoño siempre tiene algo de sueño escondido entre sus pliegues.
Es la manera de decirlo todo sin pronunciar palabra.
Es la pausa de algo, el por qué de alguien.
Es estar solo y a la vez acompañado
en la intimidad indecente de la conciencia.
El repiqueteo constante de una agradable nostalgia
que se vuelca sobre las calles que camino.
Es estar parado donde siempre quise:
sobre la sombra de un árbol desnudo.
Otoño siempre tiene algo de sueño escondido entre sus manos
para dormirlo todo.
Soñarlo es para mí una manera de decir;
ven, el otoño, más que mío es tuyo,
más que tuyo, es nuestro…
ven, para que entremedio de los árboles sin hojas,
por una vez, por esta vez, caminemos juntos.

This is the longest of 3 canal tunnels. It is around 1 km and does not have a footpath - so this girl looking. I was told that you can see the other end. But i was on the wrong side. Also it happened that the majority of this walk were shoot by 50 mm which is not ideal for scenery.
Also i am amazed how little information about the Regent canal is available around - i mean history, pictures, walking guides, current development. I've seen only 1 book on Amazon. It goes through such a vibrant number of areas. And it has been there since 1820.
I found that much however about Islington tunnel

We attended a landscape photo workshop yesterday (Sunday). Not too close - 4hr drive to location in South Moravia, Czech Rep. so we had to wake up at 4am and got back home too tired around 11pm. But it was so worth it. Location was stunning and well known by the pro photographer who was leading the workshop. And he even managed to secure ideal weather somehow LOL. Area was full of rolling hills that are used for agriculture so the fields were vibrant and varied. Sky was nice and blue almost all day with those puffy white clouds moving very fast in the strong wind and that resulted in an amazing light&shadow show on the fields.
At one moment I spotted a triangle illuminated in the sea of shadows so I immediately turned the ball head on my tripod, prefocused manually, adjusted polarizer & 1-stop hard edge grad filter, set the exposure and fired. Post process included only the adjustment of the levels to achieve better contrast, tiny bit of saturation and square crop.
Didn't have time to play with all the photos yet but this one is my personal winner - at least I think so ;) Anyways... expect more photos soon.
Thanks for looking!
Your feedback is always appreciated ;)

"Ho visto cose che voi umani non potreste immaginarvi. Navi da combattimento in fiamme al largo dei bastioni di Orione... e ho visto i raggi B balenare nel buio vicino alle porte di Tannhäuser. E tutti quei momenti andranno perduti nel tempo come lacrime nella pioggia. È tempo di morire. "

Daily Photo - Chicago from a Chopper
Chicago is an awesome city and I always have a good time there. This time of year, it gets a bit cold... and if you don't have a good coat pre-buttoned before you go outside, well, that's a big mistake.
I have a good friend there that arranged a helicopter for me in Chicago and took the door off! I hung out for a few hours battling the backwash as we circled the city and flew in and out of the buildings. This is one of the shots from that series, and I hope you enjoy looking at it as much as I did shooting it!

This is Fluorite from Dal'negorsk (Дальнегорск), Russia at the Tucson Gem & Mineral Show.
www.mindat.org/locentries.php?p=2635&m=1576
A famous mining region centered on the city of Dalnegorsk in eastern Russia, 300 km northeast of Vladivostok. The name "Tetyukhe" or "Tetjuche" (meaning "valley of the wild pigs") is the old Chinese name for Dalnegorsk and can be encountered on a few old mineral labels.
The Verkhnee deposit was first developed in 1912. Boron mineralization was prospected in 1945.
The region comprises 9 different deposits.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorite
"Fluorite (also called fluorspar) is the mineral form of calcium fluoride, CaF2. It belongs to the halide minerals. It crystallizes in isometric cubic habit, although octahedral and more complex isometric forms are not uncommon.
Pure fluorite is colourless and transparent, both in visible and ultraviolet light, but impurities usually make it a colorful mineral and the stone has ornamental and lapidary uses. Industrially, fluorite is used as a flux for smelting, and in the production of certain glasses and enamels. The purest grades of fluorite are a source of fluoride for hydrofluoric acid manufacture, which is the intermediate source of most fluorine-containing fine chemicals. Optically clear transparent fluorite has anomalous partial dispersion, that is, its refractive index varies with the wavelength of light in a manner that differs from that of commonly used glasses, so fluorite is useful in making apochromatic lenses, and particularly valuable in photographic optics. Fluorite optics are also usable in the far-ultraviolet and mid-infrared ranges, where conventional glasses are too opaque for use. Fluorite also has low dispersion, and a high refractive index for its density."
www.visittucson.org/tucson-gem-mineral-fossil-showcase/
"Every year the world-renowned Tucson Gem, Mineral & Fossil Showcase is like a time portal, a trip around the world, and a treasure hunt all rolled into one. Every winter, more than 65,000 guests from around the globe descend upon Tucson, AZ, to buy, sell, trade, and bear witness to rare and enchanting gems, minerals, and fossils at more than 50 gem show locations across the city. If you're planning a winter visit to Tucson, you won't want to miss this three-week-long event filled with shows, related events, a free day at the gem & mineral museum, and much, much more!
"Whether you’re looking for a $5 shimmering crystal necklace or a show-stopping $200,000 crystallized rock from an exotic location, the Tucson Gem, Mineral, & Fossil Shows have something for everyone."

Looking at one of the best Calatrava shot I've ever seen in the last time (btw - chapeaux, boss!), I realized how much I'm missing architecture shots!, but since it is snowing, and I'm in a renaissance town - not so much modern architecture here!, and blah blah blah (quote from the "horrible" ;-D) - and this, and that - ok, stop talking! -
... have a nice evening :-)
(back later, dinner time here!)
This was not my original idea, I had something planned out, and it would have really been something. but, it didn't work out. That's something that happens with me, i can never plan out a shot, i get too excited about it and it falls short. This time I just couldn't get past the NO TRESPASSING gate. but, I love this shot more than I think that original shot.
totw:: movie lines- from casablanca, but more so, from "As Time Goes By."
like my switch from yesterday's shot to this? haha from OMG scurry to aw flowers. heh
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I’m done.
And my oh my, that’s nice to say :) So I’ll now go through the typical 365 final shot description part…
I started flickr because someone told me about it and figured it would be a pretty good place to get some feedback on my photos other than my friends on myspace and facebook. I didn’t have much to use, and my stream was less than buzzing with comments. Then I found this group for a “One object 365 days project” and thought that would be pretty cool. Each day do something different with the same object. So I chose this little stuffed rat “Felix” and got pretty far, around day 23 I found FGR. Then little by little my “One object 365” dropped and I started doing more self portraits. Then, when I decided to do a Self Portrait 365 project I dropped my other project and started one Tuesday in August. The date meant nothing to me, and it doesn’t now. August 12th. It was just a day. Just a day that started this whole mess of amazingness. Just a day. But, I really think every time August 12th rolls around, I’m going to remember it was the start of something more awesome than I ever though possible.
I didn’t grow up knowing I wanted to work with art. I switched around with my “future plan” a lot. But I’d always loved to take pictures. I used to own a Polaroid and I would run out of film faster than we could buy it. Then I obviously went mad and sold it. Dumb. It wasn’t until high school that I realized that I belonged in some sort of art field. And it wasn’t until flickr that I knew it was photography. And, now, it’s switched again. I’ve fallen in love with theatrics. Theatrical makeup is where my heart is now. And I’ve got you all to thank for that. I used to play with my makeup in my mirror late at night. Trying to do what the makeup artists do in movies. Halloween soon became my favourite time of year because I could actually SHOW people what I did, without looking foolish.
I owe so much to this photo sharing site and this 365 project. It’s silly sounding, but it’s true. It has become a sort of therapy for me. I’ve let so much out with each picture I’ve posted. I’ve shared with you all more than I’ve shared with my family. I had no idea it would be so easy to tell you all everything that I have. My secrets, and quarks, random facts and tidbits. I suppose it’s because it’s just text on a screen rather than face to face.
I’ve met so many amazing people. Please, if I don’t include you personally, if you’ve followed me this far, know you mean a lot to me :) These are in no particular order.
-Abe.Oh Abe. I don’t even know what to start with. You’ve helped me so much more than anyone knows. When I was ready to give up you were there ready to pick me up. I’ve cried to you, and laughed with you. You’re an inspiration. Each day, each time you ABE a damn photo ;-) I am reminded how lucky I am.
-Liina. :) You, like your sweet hubby, have helped me so much. I hope one day, I’ll be able to meet you in person just to give you the hug you deserve. ♥
-Steven. I just can’t think of the words. You’re more amazing each day. I doubt you even know how much I look toward you. Each time you upload something it’s something new, something exciting, something beautiful. You’re one of the most amazing artists I’ve ever ‘met’ And hell, you’re funnier than most people in the world :)
-Erin and Ashley. You girls are freaking amazing. Everything you do. Erin with your film work, oy I just love you. :D and Ashley…you’re just the bees knees!!! Hehe. I love you girls. I know one day, when I move to LA we are going to have a road trip and have slumber parties and we’ll play with makeup and have pillow fights and prank call steven and vic :)
-Justin. My asian friend. Heh. You’ve been just one of the best contacts. You’re always so honest in your photography. And lets face it, you’re just awesome. Who else gives asian hugs? No one. Not like you. Hahaa
-Jenni. You were one of my first favourite on flickr. :) I think the first picture I saw of yours was “To Flickr with love”. I knew I had to follow you from what I saw. You’ve been the biggest inspiration here. Your art is just perfection, and you’re so natural at it. It looks like just another part of you. I’m completely envious of your ability to show so much in a photograph. From the simplest photographs to the most complex, I’m always amazed. Whenever I find myself in an idea slump I always find myself looking through all your photos and each time I’m amazed.
-Michelle. You’re my lovely, and I miss out note battles :)) you know you mean a lot. ♥♥
-Maite. Aw, maite mouse :) you’re like the cool aunt who buys me beer and sneaks me into bars. I look up to you. And your epic paleness ;-) Love you. Xoxo
-Carrie. You’re like the cool sister-in-law who drinks the beer with me Maite bought and dances in the club. You’re just wonderful. YOU’RE an angel sent down to make the world brighter ;-) I love you. xoxo
-Brookie. My skype buddy. You are just fucking amazing. You’re so real, that’s something I truly admire. You know what you want, and you’re doing anything to get it. I’m so proud to call you my friend. I wish I knew what else to write. You know how much you mean to me. You’ve been someone I can talk to about anything with. You’re an amazing person. A beautiful person. I hope you know that. ♥
And everyone else:: Hannah, Annick, Ellie, Tom, Julia, Jen, Vic, Joel, Charlie, Pete, Wendy, Tony, Rea, Dave, Martha, Paula, Kimmers, Pixie, Rich, Charlie, Ryan, Bex, Gooner, Flooz, Mike, Amanda and K. I love you all. I wish I could write to everyone. I know I’ve forgotten someone.
I know I’ve written a novel. But, I can’t help it. I just have to thank you all for following me through this crazy journey. Now I'm ready to start a new one.
NO not a year two. Not any time soon at least. but Something better. I've learned so much through this project. I've got to put it to use other than photographing myself everyday.
Thank you guys so much. for everything ♥
I wont disappear. I've got my 52 weeks. I'll be around watching your streams ;-)
I love you kids.

I love turtles and often I see them basking in the sun ...; )
Aquatic turtles love basking in natural sunlight. While heat is radiated to their bodies from their shells, they often stretch out their legs which is to collect additional heat.
P.S. After you hit the alarm, stretch! Animals and babies stretch when they wake up, but somewhere along the way, many of us adults forgot how to have a good stretch. Stretching out the muscles after waking up can help you feel more alert and less anxious throughout your day.
Gracias al Photoshop, podemos hacer que nuestras fotos antiguas, pasen a formar parte de esta era digital, después de escánear esta foto mía de cuando era chiquitito, he intantado quitarle algunons desperfectos, no se lo he quitado todos, pero bueno, he ajustado niveles, desenfoques, ajustes de curvas, capa de saturación, capa de opacidad, y por ultimo un enfoque muy leve, cuando ya he tenido más o menos a gusto la tonalidad, le he aplicado una textura al sofá, para darle una nueva sensación de foto de estudio, y este ha sido el resultado.

I have had this shot in my stream for a while but was unhappy with the colour version so thought that mono did the wonderful light on this day more justice...
Eilean Donan (Scottish Gaelic for Island of Donan), is a small island in Loch Duich in the western Highlands of Scotland. It is connected to the mainland by a footbridge and lies about half a mile from the village of Dornie. Eilean Donan is named after St Donan, a Celtic saint martyred in the Dark Ages.
The Palace of Fine Arts was built for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition, which was held in San Francisco. None of the buildings were meant to be permanent. However, the Palace of Fine Arts was so beautiful that it was not torn down after the fair. Miraculously, the palace survived the 1989 earthquake with little damage. The Beaux-Arts style structure features and dome and Roman-style curved colonnades. Surrounding the palace is a park with a duck pond. Adjacent to the palace is the San Francisco Exploratorium, which is a discovery museum with hands-on exhibits on science, art and human perception.
A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE PALACE OF FINE ARTS:
"The Palace was not designed as 'a Valentine for San Francisco.' Maybeck visualized its colonnade streaming with people, finding a reward within the great doors."
The task of creating a Palace of Fine Arts for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition fell to the architect Bernard R. Maybeck, then fifty years old and known for his innovative ideas. Setting to work on this new project, he chose as his theme a Roman ruin, mutilated and overgrown, in the mood of a Piranesi engraving. But this ruin was not to exist solely for itself to show "the mortality of grandeur and the vanity of human wishes .... " Although it was meant to give delight by its exterior beauty, its purpose was also to offer all visitors a stimulating experience within doors.
In playing host to the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, The Fair, which opened on February 20, 1915, San Francisco was honoring the discovery of the Pacific Ocean and the completion of the Panama Canal; it was also celebrating its own resurrection after the shattering earthquake and fire of 1906.
The problems of choosing the exact site in the city had finally been overcome and groundwork had been going on for some time. Last of the buildings to be erected, on the lagoon and close by a group of Monterey cypresses, was Maybeck's Palace of Fine Arts. With its exhibition hall to house the work of living artists (dominated by the Impressionists), its colonnade, and its rotunda -- plans for all of which had dazzled the Commissioners when the huge brown-paper sketch was put before them -- it fulfilled the architect's dream: it was as beautiful reflected in the water as it was against the sky. And when the Palace was completed (Roman in style although a freely-interpreted, purely romantic conception, and Greek in decorative treatment) its exceptional harmony gave it instant appeal to the public.

Red-winged Blackbird
Present throughout Canada during the nesting period, the Red-winged Blackbird nests in all the southern regions of Quebec and the Maritimes, and increasingly spends its winters in the northern United States. It prefers to settle in open and humid places, such as ditches, reed mace marshes and stream or river banks, but will also nest in drier terrain, in pasture and cultivated fields. Its diet varies with the seasons, but it feeds mainly on insects and cultivated seeds, including corn. Besides, it is a menace for farmers who find their fields ravaged by this bird. But in spite of everything, it still does them some great services, such as attacking the insects that destroy their newly-planted crops. The Red-winged Blackbird reaches 19 to 26 cm in length.

Romperá la tarde en mi voz hasta el eco de ayer.
Voy quedándome solo al final,
muerto de sed, harto de andar.
Pero sigo creciendo en el sol, vivo.
Era el tiempo viejo la flor; la madera frutal.
Luego el hacha se puso a golpear;
verse caer; sólo rodar.
Pero el árbol reverdecerá, nuevo.
Al quemarse en el cielo la luz del día, me voy.
Con el cuero asombrado me iré:
ronco al gritar que volveré,
repartido en el aire a gritar: siempre.
Mi razón no pide piedad; se dispone a partir.
No me asusta la muerte ritual;
sólo dormir; verme borrar.
Una historia me recordará, vivo. ♪♫
Veo el campo, el fruto, la miel y estas ganas de amar.
No me puede el olvido vencer,
hoy como ayer siempre llegar.
En el hijo se puede volver, nuevo.

“Y estos derechos... a respetarlos, ¿eh? ¡No vaya a pasar como con los diez mandamientos!” (Mafalda
Cuando uno rememora los cuentos de hadas, las historias que de pequeño solía escucharlas de boca de nuestros padres, o de nuestros abuelos, siempre nos viene a la memoria el escenario en el que se desarrollaban en nuestra imaginación. Un bosque sombrío, húmedo y lleno de grandes árboles, llenaba de misterio y curiosidad las peripecias de Pulgarcito, de Hensel y Gretel, de la Bella Durmiente o de Caperucita Roja. Estos bosques, cuando uno se hace mayor, dejan de existir en nuestra imaginación y parece que se esfuman de nuestra conciencia como un azucarillo en el cafe. Parajes como este, (El castañar de El Tiemblo) nos ayudan a recordar que estos bosques todavía existen, y que tienen una capacidad de sugerencia y evocación suficiente para imaginar el desarrollo de mil y una historias, a cual más fantástica y atrayente. En cualquier época del año es recomendable visitar el bosque, pero hay que reconocer que es en Otoño cuando despliega toda su fuerza, especialmente por el contraste cromático de los castaños con los sotos de robles, servales, acebos y pinos de la zona.

EASY WAY TO SEE ALL MY PHOTOS AS RANDOM
The sky really seriously was that shade of blue over the mountains. I went for a walk with my family just after sunset, it was so beautiful! I have NEVER seen the clouds so blue before! And it didn't even rain. :)
im so excited! Sara and I will be doing a collab... so in about a month or so you can expect a series inspired but Chevelle's new album, Sci-Fi Crimes. if you havent listened to it you seriously should. One of the best albums this year, i think.

View a straight print of "The Moment After" in black, for comparison.
One of my first lith experiments. I am sure it will take me lots of time and effort to get used to printing that way. The little fucker took 21 minutes under the enlarger and 13 minutes in the developer. I feel insecure and leave the print in the developer for more than needed, as it turns out.
Love the look and the colors that Moersch Easylith and Fomatone provide though. It's a whole new different world.

The shot was taken in the early morning hours before sunrise at Punggol. When light was low and long exposure yielded this smooth effect of the water. No filter was applied and the blue tone truely compliments the blue hour at dawn.
Almost same shot from same location after sunrise
This is freshly baked shot, one long exposure of 10 secs to flatten the water and another exposure of 5 secs for the sky. Exif is not 100% correct here. As per editing is concerned nothing done except playing with its curves and bit sharpness.
