These are White-Cheeked Gibbons. The white gibbon was consoling the other for quite some time.
The Primate house at the Brookfield Zoo was great. I'd go so as far as saying it was the best part of the zoo. The only trouble is that it was somewhat overcast and the lighting in the house was very poor. Had to shoot most shots at ISO 400 or 800 with the lens wide over and a shutter speed of 1/15 to 1/50. A lot of the monkeys were very active but all the action shots came out blurred.

Peter Gabriel: Come talk to me
Desde la playa de Hueinahue, en la desembocadura del rÃo, después de devorar un rico arroz y beber un par de deliciosos mostos de estas tierras, la Luna y Venus parecÃan danzar al otro lado del lago. Exquisita el agua para echarse a remojar después de varias horas en la bicicleta.

After the sea-ship, after the whistling winds,
After the white-gray sails taut to their spars and ropes,
Below, a myriad myriad waves hastening, lifting up their necks,
Tending in ceaseless flow toward the track of the ship,
Waves of the ocean bubbling and gurgling, blithely prying,
Waves, undulating waves, liquid, uneven, emulous waves,
Toward that whirling current, laughing and buoyant, with curves,
Where the great vessel sailing and tacking displaced the surface,
Larger and smaller waves in the spread of the ocean yearnfully flowing,
The wake of the sea-ship after she passes, flashing and frolicsome
under the sun,
A motley procession with many a fleck of foam and many fragments,
Following the stately and rapid ship, in the wake following.
After the Sea-Ship

Jeudi dernier après le boulot Yoann et moi nous sommes allés sur la plage de Bourda/Montjoly (entrée Ifremer) pour tenter un coucher de soleil. Malheureusement, elle était pleine de joggers et de kitesurfers. La marée était trop haute pour essayer de composer avec les rochers, donc... encore un autoportrait (désolé ;-). Plage de Bourda, Guyane française.

Last Thursday after work Yoann and I went on the beach of Bourda/Montjoly (Ifremer's entry) to try a sunset shot. Unfortunately, it was full of joggers and kitesurfers. The tide was too high to try to compose with the rocks, so ... yet a selfportrait (sorry ;-). Beach of Bourda (French guiana).

I am very pleasantly surprised at the number of positive comments this upload received. It is my very first 'public' showing of work with textures - a technique that I find that only few can do really well. Thank you all.
I have started a Gallery showing examples of such work
Texture by Boccacino.
some shots taken yesterday afternoon, while I was sitting in this beautiful, small place here in ferrara - having a good time chatting and drinking with friends - lazy summer mood!
actually, I wished to post them last night - but I spent all the time trying to upload them - I'm still having a lot of problems doing that! :-(((( - so I got very angry and I went to bed ... - I hope to find a way, soon or later!, and in the meanwhile today I have changed my provider ... I am trying evrrything!
Have a nice day - here is sunny and is going to be very, very hot! :-)
see you later!
Explored #32. Thanks!
A little break in my cold Finnish seascapes...Back to some hard core urban architecture shots! ;-)
As of October 19th 2008, the height of the Burj Dubai is estimated at 730 meters (2395 feet). Speculated final height: between 800 and 950 meters...Anyway, there is already another project of a 1000 metres tower in the pipe, also in Dubai!
This is a handheld (40mm at f/8 with my Tamron 17-50mm) 5exp tonemapped HDR. This had to be shot very fast as the car was stopped on the emergency lane of a busy highway!
Thanks for the visit, comments, awards, invitations and favorites.

Castell de Montornés, Desert de les Palmes, Benicà ssim (Castelló de la plana)
El castillo de Montornés, situado en el término municipal de Benicà ssim en la provincia de Castelló es una fortaleza de origen árabe del siglo X construida sobre restos de origen romano, que se sitúa sobre una escarpada cima en la sierra del Desert de les Palmes, a 4 kilómetros de la población y a una altura de 500 m en situación estratégica para la defensa de la zona, dominando un gran espacio marÃtimo entre las desembocaduras del Coves y del Mijares.
Esta fortaleza forma un triángulo con la torre San Vicente y con la casoleta de Salandó, que probablemente tuvieron la función de reforzar su defensa.
Se trata de un castillo montano de planta irregular, con tres recintos amurallados.
Cuenta con dos torres, una de ellas de planta cuadrangular que domina el valle de Miravet y la otra cilÃndrica sobre el acantilado situado a espaldas del castillo.
Del primer recinto solo se conservan los lienzos oriental y meridional con algunos arranques de torres y del segundo recinto solo son visibles los cimientos de murallas y un aljibe al interior.
Del recinto interior se conserva varios lienzos en ángulo, situándose en este otro aljibe.
Los terrenos sobre los que se sitúa el Castillo fueron poblados desde la edad de Bronce, y posteriormente en la época de las ocupaciones romana y musulmana.
A finales del siglo XI perteneció a Pedro I el Grande, pero con la presencia almorávide y la muerte del Cid en 1099 las posesiones de Pedro I se ven seriamente amenazadas, siendo conquistado por los almorávides en 1103 y pasando definitivamente a dominios cristianos en 1234. Es abandonado en el siglo XVII.

AHH. It's winter. I did not expect it to come this quickly! It's been so cold, so I'm hiding in scarves, and Skyrim. It's crazy, I went outside to take a picture, and had to run inside and get a scarf and warmer jacket.
This happened.
My hair is also a really light blue, now, I loove it! I might try to put a baby-blue dye over it, though. :3
Also, the texture I put over it was a picture of sparkling snow, that I took when it snowed for two weeks last winter~ <3
Also, Kaskade's album "Fire & Ice" is amazing. So, listen to this.

Republic forces in retreat! While rescuing General Aayla Secura from certain defeat, Anakin Skywalker has been seriously injured. After a narrow escape, our heroes crash-landed on the remote world of Maridun. Stranded, and with no way to contact the Republic, the Jedi receive medical aid from the peaceful Lurmen colonists. But even on this tiny planet, the war threatens to follow the Jedi....
Star Wars The Clone Wars means so much to me. It defined so much of my childhood all the way into my teenage years, and even now it still impacts me. Then you also have Rebels, it never ends haha :P
I'll currently rewatching Star Wars the Clone wars in canon order and am close to finishing Season 5. Still such incredible content! As I've been going I've been jotting down ideas from episodes I want to build, and this was one of the first on the list. This is of course from the Episode Jedi Crash. I have lots more planned (and currently have 2 others built) So get hyped. But yeah you know, exciting! There'll be MOC's from Seasons 1 through to 5 and most likely even the Lost Missions too.
I know I've watched Seasons 1 and 2 more time then I can remember, and this episode was always a very enjoyable one for me. Not my favourite by any means, but very enjoyable!

Oh how I adore a game of shadows!
I've been dying to take shots but I've just been out of ideas. So here is this!
The light was so bright here, for some reason. My eyes were watering so much as I got up! But I'm just happy I was able to achieve the shot.

97/365 - Just Say Yes - Snow Patrol
Please take my heart... Love that band and that song so much, the lyrics are beautiful, heard it again this morning on the TV, don't know why but it speaks a lot to me.
So I decided to get back on the idea of choosing a music first, and then realize some picture using the inspiration I found. I think it's the most difficult but exciting way to play with lyrics.
So that's what happened today, I decided to use this song and that's the idea I found for today's shot.
This is the Saint Catherine street, just the longest pedestrian street of Europe in the deep center of Bordeaux.
There's always so much people and shops over there, it's amazing.
Spent a great afternoon with my friend Julien, thanks to him for the picture !
One thing you don't know is how much this picture and the concept illustrate perfectly Julien's yesterday !
It's really too funny, the composition and the picture is relatively simple but I'm really proud of this one.

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

Thank you so much to Lizz for her testimonial! :)
Do you ever have that feeling of just wanting to fly?
When you tip your head up and you watch the sky, the clouds scudding by, the birds swooping and falling with ease. The times when the sky is a dazzling blue, I wish I had wings. I wish I could be as free as the birds, as careless and carefree. But my feet are chained to the ground by invisible cuffs known as gravity, and all I can do is look on, but remain where I am.
That's when I feel trapped; suffocated and oppressed by just watching the freedom of something else. And I am reminded of how most of the time, the things that I want, I'm resigned to watch on the sidelines as it remains out of my grasp.
Thank you so much for 20000+ views on my stream. That makes me extremely happy. :)

Do you see the hidden Easter bonus?
I won't be around much today. It is my kid's spring break and we are heading for the beach. The hotel does have wi-fi so I may be able to peek in occasionally. If not, I hope you all have a wonderful rest of the week.
I chose purple for today in remembrance of our Lord's suffering as He died on the cross for our sins. Remember the true meaning of Easter as you celebrate this weekend and if you don't know the true meaning....then I pray you find it. :0)
I sometimes wish I was a child again, so that I had nothing to worry about. I could live life and enjoy everything without a care in the world. I have been worrying about my future lately because there are certain decisions that I have to make that may take me away from my family and friends. However, having God in my life has always allowed me to think and live like a child most of the time. In an instant God is able to take all my worries away. All I know is that my life is in God's hands and everything will work itself out.

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 ;)
It's been a very long day at work today, left the house at 7:30 this morning, got back at 9:30 tonight and have had a somewhat hectic time inbetween (productive though!) I'm quite surprised I managed to remember to take a photo of the day tonight with the little brain function I have left! LOL!
There is (as often the case!) a bit of a story here. Some of the older children at school were selling flowers this evening as part of their enterprise project. When I left to come home there was just one sad and lonely and very wilted gerbera sitting in a bucket of water. It looked such a sad specimen I couldn't resist taking it home, giving it a trim and some water and then immortalising it with a photo! There's something quite satisfying about taking an ugly duckling and turning into a swan! ;-))
Anyway, the Gerbera has perked up and I'm waffling, I should really go to bed! Will catch up tomorrow! :-)

Today is Daffodil Day. We were all up early this morning in the Murphy house. Just as well, as the sunrise was beautiful. It didn't last long though and the clouds soon turned to rain by school time. I used the diffused light from the cloudy day here. My model was not her usual, obliging self, and took some coaxing. I thought the subject appropriate seeing the time of year and worthy cause. I wanted to try and capture the 'Scent of Spring' - as if a photo could do that! Here the radiance exuded by the daffodil is being absorbed by the little girl. A simple idea. I used colour popping to enhance the effect. I was equally happy with the full colour shot and I combined it with a High Key black and white conversion.
The shot; A single Raw file taken on the tri-pod. Processed with a tone Curve and Saturation boost. From this I made the b/w copy and added it as the top layer to the colour shot. Then erased elements of the b/w layer to reveal the colour elements in the Background colour layer. After flattening, I added some blur to the edges and framed it. ISO 100. 1/60 at f/2.8. No flash used, just the natural unfiltered light from the window. See the set-up below. I never go anywhere without my sheet of Black Felt, truly excellent stuff.

Histoire: Fortifiée au moyen âge en raison de sa position stratégique et surnommée "ville du Pape" sous la protection du pape Clément V, Belvès conserve les vestiges d'un passé tourmenté : remparts, tour de l'Auditeur, beffroi à cloche, tour de la Mairie, ancien clocher du couvent des Frères Prêcheurs, tour de l'Hôpital, château au donjon du XIIe siècle, hôtel à façade renaissance, ancienne maison des Consuls, halle aux bois et habitations troglodytiques. L'église Notre Dame de Montcuq est une ancienne prieurale bénédictine des XIIe et XIVe siècles. Source: Villages de France
History: It was fortified in the Middle Ages because of its strategic position and came to be known as the "Pope’s city" as it was under Clement V’s protection. Belvès bears witness to a tormented past: walls and the auditeur’s tower (11th c); the belfry (15th c) the city hall tower, the castle (14th/15th), the hotel with a Renaissance façade and troglodyte dwellings.

While taking an early morning walk on the famous "orla Bardot" (its a long and beautiful typical sidewalk along the sea) of Buzios (a fantastic seasort-fishing village) in Brazil to get some good light and on my way to the fishermens dock (great experience I manage to dive and jump and swim with huge turtles - lucky omen they said) ... this is a view of part of a great group statue in homage to the local fishermen of this fantastic unique place in the world... all is so peaceful, the gentle sound of the waves, the smell of the sea and fresh fish .. and all kinds of boats from great
yachts to fishermens small little boats so colourful .. a delight and unforgettable walk (I was so lucky to do it with "real" locals) ... after I went back "home" to my dear friend who so kindly invited me over (she knows who she is) ... but I will never forget this very early walk and the feeling of total joy while diving from the dock into the emerald sea with all the kinds of sea creatures (ah the huge sea turtles did not bite me !) - just magical! So my friends have a great Summer (if you are in this part of the world) and if not just enjoy.
Also I would like to THANK all my dear Friends and Contacts for their wishes on my birthday.
