One of the most visited religious structures in the United States, the Chapel of the Transfiguration frames some of the most gorgeous landscape America has to offer.
After composing a few HDR of the interior, I stepped outside and headed back to my truck. I was very happy to follow the fence line and discover these yellow beauties growing up along the fence, and had to compose them with the church.
If anyone can tell me what they are, I'd appreciate it. Probably some sort of flowering weed, but "The More You Know!"

Sometimes some shots you don't think are all that great just take on a life you never expected. This was one. I was processing it as I posted the first shot from the Ottawa River shoot. Forgot it was processing (got lost looking at y'all's streams!) and just as I was about to shut down for the night realized it was waiting to be tonemapped.
So I said, "oops" and proceeded to tonemap it.
That's when I went, "Oh wow!"
Hope you like it.
This one MUST be seen in Large On Black. Particularly the mid-ground looks so cool and soft-focused because of the HDR processing.
I've chosen to feature this castle in sepia to emphasize its history, its place in a bygone age and above all, its sense of mystery and yes, even romance.
"The castles which are today such an unmistakable feature of the Rhein landscape date back to the Middle Ages. Their founders were feudal overloards, who, so far from cherishing any romantic notions, built them with one simple aim in mind: to protect their lands from marauders and predatory neighbours. They chose mountain-tops as strategically ideal situations, and we today, looking back through the haze of ninteenth-century medievalism, are still often prone to see them as objects of mystery and splendour, forgetting the warlike function for which they were built and the back-breaking labour of the feudal serfs, whom we must presume to have been forcibly employed in quarring the huge stone blocks and dragging them up the mountain slopes.
Since Roman times the Rhein valley has been a line of communication of vital strategic importance. In the Middle Ages the German emperors used it for their frequent progresses into Italy, and rich merchants sent their goods to and fro along it. Obviously anyone owning a castle overlooking the valley was in a powerful position, since he was able to survey and regulate the flow of traffic across his particular territory and levy tolls on merchants. This accounts for the large number of castles along the Rhein from Mainz to Bonn, particularly in the narrow gorge connecting Bingen and Koblenz. Along this stretch of river, which has a length of only thirty-five miles, there are more castles than in any other river valley in the world. "

Thanks for visiting and have a lovely day!
Chambered Tomb in South Glamorgan. The Welsh name for this site is Gwal-y-Filiast, the Greyhound Bitch's Lair. There was once a mound of earth or stones covering this Neolithic burial chamber, but only slight traces remain.
Now there are three upright stones supporting a 14-foot long by 10-foot wide by 21/2-foot thick capstone, truly a remarkable feat. There are no excavation finds, but one 19th Century researcher recounted seeing bones and pottery mixed up with earth thrown out of the chamber.

Giving this a go in the deleteme group. We shall see.
She is the hider. NOT the seeker. During our walk i told her to go hide so Lola could find her, and this is her interpretation. To be a 2 year old. :)
Another from my first attempt at RAW in CS2, enjoying it. I used a bit of vignetting in this one too, more obvious here.

Música : Eres para mi la más bella del mundo
Sabes que para todos no serás el mundo
Pero siempre habrá alguien que para él o ella seas todo su mundo,…
El centro de su universo…
Aquél o aquella que sentirás que te mima y cuida
Que te hará sentir especial y diferente….
Distinto o distinta…..único…única.
Y que te exhibirá orgulloso u orgullosa de ti ante todos...
Y , de repente…
Nos hará sentir ser el más bello centro del bouquet de su vida
Y sin necesidad de preguntas...
Sin necesidad de respuestas.…
Así nos querremos, también,...Tú y Yo.

After a few posts from other parts of Brazil, I am continually drawn back to my favorite location there, Iguazu Falls. The name "Iguazu" comes from the Guarani or Tupi words y [ɨ], meaning "water", and ûasú [waˈsu], meaning "big". wiki That said, I'd be hard pressed to not call this place "land of the waterfalls" or "terra das cachoeiras".
This is a 6 shot vertical pano (w/reverse ND Grad) taken 10 mins. prior to and up stream from this post. With the nice light, I was really hoping this pano would turn out. You can see all of the mist, so I was kept busy wiping off the lens in between shots. I couldn't get Photoshop to stitch these together, so after numerous tries I went a different route and am very glad I was able to salvage it.
Thanks for looking!

Red Powder Puff or Fairy Duster.
Calliandra is a genus of about 200 species of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae, subfamily Mimosoideae, native to tropical and subtropical regions of southern Asia, Africa, Australia and the Americas. The genus comprises herbaceous perennial plants, shrubs and rarely small trees growing 0.5-6 m tall, with bipinnate leaves. The flowers have numerous long slender stamens, and are produced in cylindrical or globose inflorescences; the stamens give rise to the common name of Powder-puff/ Powder puff Plant and Fairy Duster.These plants flower all year round, but the best blooming is in spring and summer. They can be easily pruned.

Have a lovely Thursday and thanks for dropping by.
Experimented with DoF, this one was interesting, the bigger flower was little away from my focus and smaller one was my PoF, and as always this piece of nature also has a great message for us, not every body is equal in this world, some are rich, some are poor, some have disabilities and some have rare abilities, but no matter who you are and how you are there is something special in everyone of us, everyone one of us are special in some way are the other. Never underestimate yourself, if you are not special to yourself then don't expect others to expect that you are special. Belief in yourself, you are special, no matter who you are. Thanks for all your comments and fav

With the company of mister Nelson Bolinhas.
Despite the bad weather, we decided to shoot another sunrise, to remember how good it feels to wake up at 5:00 ...
The aim was to repeat the visit to the piers in Povoa de Santa Iria, but after an attack of thousands of mosquitoes we decided to look elsewhere, and we went to this place never after photographed.
The weather was bad, the colors and the sun didn't appeared and this was my last record already in the rain.
Apesar do mau tempo, decidimos fazer mais um nascer do dia, para recordar como é bom acordar às 5:00...
O objectivo era repetir a visita ao cais palafítico da Póvoa de Santa Iria, mas depois de uma ataque de milhares de melgas decidimos procurar outras paragens, e fomos até este sitio muito pouco fotografado.
O tempo estava mau, as cores e sol não apareceram e este foi o meu último registo já debaixo de chuva.

The river in shallows murmured and chattered,
In deep pools, sighing, swishing, and swirling.
The sun blazing down on great patches of gold.
The Gorse bushes popping, their seed pods exploding.
While the Broom gently swayed, wafting its perfume
On the delicate touch of the breeze from the river.
Nature could not have been kinder
That day, as we walked in its splendour.
We shyly held hands - it was our first meeting.
Then we sat on the grass in quiet conversation.
Long pauses, deep sighs, then trickles of words,
Nervous laughs, like the sounds of the river
As it flowed past our feet.
We turned to each other with lips slightly pouting,
Both of us nervous of that very first kiss.
Our lips barely touched, like a butterfly flutter,
Or was it a puff from the wind on the river?
Your sweet tiny face seemed mounted in gold,
Eyes open wide and Kingfisher blue.
New love, young love, needs time to mature,
But we drifted apart, then found love once again.
True love, mature love, but not with each other.
Yet still the Broom, its perfume heart stopping,
And the Golden Gorse goes on pleasing,
Down by the river, for other lovers walking,
Just as it did when we were so young.
(David Lewis)
Lutry, my favourite village (actually, it's the most beautiful of Switzerland - in my view), my favourite iron bridge, being populated by a couple in love, a mother with her three children (!!), and underneath neatly arranged a few ducks and water birds... All this gently decorated and framed with the last leaves of a large tree.
The small river is leading here into Lac Léman (Lake Leman or Lake Geneva) which again has EVERYTHING, sandy and pebbly beaches, benches, rocks and the most clear and wonderful (and often cold) water... - and NOW let me go back to my day dreams!:)

A couple weeks ago I organized a "glitter party," which was basically just a mass photoshoot involving lots of people, glitter, and a field. Unfortunately, the internet on my computer is down and has been down for about a week or so now. I can't seem to figure out how to get reconnected to the internet, neither can my brother. So my internet usage is reduced to whenever I can get on somebody else's computer. I don't like it at all.

Petit coin sympathique découvert avec Yoann hier après midi accessible à marée basse après une petite marche sur la plage précédente. Cette plage est bordée de très grands palétuviers et le sable recouvert par endroits de feuilles mortes. Quand nous sommes arrivés, le soleil passait déjà sous l'horizon, il a fallut trouver rapidement des éléments de composition (en évitant de se faire piquer par une escadrille de taons :-).

Sympathetic spot discovered with Yoann yesterday afternoon accessible to low tide after a small walk on the preceding beach. This range is bordered with very high mangroves trees and the sand covered by places with black leaves. When we arrived, the sun was nearly below the horizon, we had to quickly find elements of composition (while avoiding being bitten by a group of horseflies :-). Rémire-montjoly (French Guiana) on November 20, 2008, road of the beaches to the mouth of the river Mahury.

There are days when situations overwhelms us and we are in despair.

The male northern cardinal is probably one of the most easily recognized bird in this area. It is frequently seen at bird feeders. Its hard to miss the bright red feathers. It also likes the vegetation in suburban settings like shrubs and bushes. This fact also makes it seen more frequently.
The female cardinal is a little less noticeable. It is some red around its head, and its beak is red. Other than that, it is mostly a light brown color.
From My Blog
Kind of funny story with this one... The kid was very enthralled with me taking pictures in the park and so I turned around and pointed at my camera and then at him and his parents were extremely happy so I knew they wouldn't mind me taking a picture so I took one, showed it to them on the LCD, and they walked off.
When I got home I loaded this up and noticed that he had wet himself and his pants were almost totally soaked. I had to crop out a large amount of the photo to keep it clean here as well as extend his shirt with the clone tool.
E dimmi a che serve sperare
se piove e non senti dolore
come questa mia pelle che muore
che cambia colore
che cambia l’odore
Tu dimmi poi che senso ha ora piangere
piangere addosso a me
che non so difendere questa mia brutta pelle
così sporca
tanto sporca
com'è sporca
questa pioggia sporca .....
We popped in to Coventry Cathedral today. I've only been once, years ago, and seeing as we have lived in the next town for the last 5 years we thought we should visit!
This is the gorgeous gorgeous stained glass window, or 'baptistry window'.
My still photos of it were not that great as it was fairly dark - so I tried playing with a longer exposure and moving the camera in a semi-circle. LOVE the results.
A circa 15 mesi dal trasferimento del ramo d'azienda da Gemini S.I. S.p.A. alla Libeccio S.r.L. (successivamente gruppo OMEGA S.p.A.) e dalla nascita della società Video On Line 2 S.r.L. si presenta nuovamente, per uno tra i più grandi Call-Center del cagliaritano, la quinta crisi societaria capace di mettere a repentaglio il posto di lavoro di circa 500 famiglie sarde.
Le vicende della Libeccio (amministratore unico Claudio Marcello Massa, Procuratore Salvatore Riccardo Cammalleri), e del gruppo Omega rischia di travolgere la società Video On Line 2.0 con sede a Cagliari in via Montecassino, polo di eccellenza sardo nel settore dei “servizi di qualità” alle imprese.
Quanto è accaduto a più di 9000 lavoratori e lavoratrici di aziende del gruppo Omega: Agile , Phonemedia, RAF S.p.A., Soft4Web e Multimedia Planet, toccherà presto anche all’azienda cagliaritana che con i suoi 500 dipendenti gestisce l’assistenza tecnica per i clienti di Telecom Italia ed IPSOA.
La vertenza VOL2 riguarda lavoratori che operano per Telecom Italia da più di 14 anni, i quali con l’elevata professionalità riconosciuta dalla stessa Telecom Italia, oltre che dalla clientela 187 e Business, garantiscono al committente standard di qualità e professionalità superiori alla media.
I lavoratori di Via Montecassino a Cagliari vivono, nuovamente, da mesi con la costante preoccupazione che l’azienda fallisca e con essa i posti di lavoro su cui 500 famiglie sarde hanno costruito il proprio futuro.
Vine aquí
sé que estàs cansada, els ulls s'et fan petits,
deixa'm abraçar-te
tendrament i calla
que és molt tard i arriba l'hora de dormir.
Posa el cap
a la meva falda i deix la meva mà
espolsar els fantasmes
que t'amoïnen i t'espanten,
tanca els ulls que jo et vigilo des d'aquí.
Dorm tranquil·la i digue'm bona nit,
deix que et porti en braços fins al llit,
jeu ben a la vora,
saps que no estàs sola
mentre et dic a cau d'orella bona nit.
La lluna pel balcó t'esguarda i sé que et fa un petó,
res no té importància
fins demà a trenc d'alba
quan de sobte t'acaroni la claror.
Dorm tranquil·la i digue'm bona nit,
deix que et porti en braços fins al llit,
jeu ben a la vora,
saps que no estàs sola
mentre et dic a cau d'orella bona nit, molt bona nit.

My Most interesting photos for a guy called Isaias
The Phi Phi Islands (Thai: หมู่เกาะพีพี) are located in Thailand, between the large island of Phuket and the western Andaman Sea coast of the mainland. Phi Phi Don, the larger and principal of the two Phi Phi islands, is located at [show location on an interactive map] 7°44′00″N, 98°46′00″E. Both Phi Phi Don, and Phi Phi Leh, the smaller, are administratively part of Krabi province, most of which is on the mainland, and is located at [show location on an interactive map] 8°02′30″N, 98°48′39″E.
Ko Phi Phi Don ("ko" (Thai: เกาะ) meaning "island" in the Thai language) is the largest island of the group, and is the only island with permanent inhabitants, although the beaches of the second largest island, Ko Phi Phi Lee (or "Ko Phi Phi Leh"), are visited by many people as well. There are no accommodation facilities on this island, but it is just a short boat ride from Ko Phi Phi Don. The rest of the islands in the group, including Bida Nok, Bida Noi, and Bamboo Island, are not much more than large limestone rocks jutting out of the sea.
Phi Phi Don was initially populated by Muslim fishermen during the late 1940s, and later became a coconut plantation. The Thai population of Phi Phi Don remains more than 80% Muslim.But the actual population if counting laborers, especially from the north-east, from the mainland is much more Buddhist these days.
Ko Phi Phi Leh was the backdrop for the 2000 movie The Beach. Phi Phi Leh also houses the 'Viking Cave', from which there is a thriving bird's nest soup industry. There was criticism during filming of 'The Beach' that the permission granted to the film company to physically alter the environment inside Phi Phi Islands National Park was illegal. [1] The controversy cooled down however, when it was discovered that the producers had done such a decent job of restoring the place that it finally looked better than it had done before.
Following the release of The Beach, tourism on Phi Phi Don increased dramatically, and with it the population of the island. Many buildings were constructed without planning permission.[citation needed]
Ko Phi Phi was devastated by the Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004, when nearly all of the island's infrastructure was wiped out. Redevelopment has, however, been swift, and services like electricity, water, Internet access and ATMs are up and running again, but waste handling has been slower to come back online.

My Interviews with my Flick Friends!
from: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phi_Phi_Island
Ko Yao (Thai: เกาะยาว) is a district (Amphoe)
Ko Yao (เกาะยาว), sometimes written Koyao, is a group of islands between Phuket and Krabi. There are two main islands, Ko Yao Noi ("Small Long Island") and Ko Yao Yai, with Noi being the more developed of the two.
Ko Yao Noi remains a beautiful island, where most people still believe that the island should be preserved from human degradation.
Sea Gypsies (Moken people) were inhabiting the Bay before anybody else, except maybe other nomadic people like forest hunters and collectors (Sakai, Negritos). The 3,500 or so inhabitants of Koh Yao Noi are thought to be recent migrants from the Malay Peninsula (Satun, Trang).
The Mon population, linguistically and culturally belonging to the Khmer ethnolinguistic group, did settled in peninsular Thailand since ever, ruling maritime states like the one of Ligor (Nakhon Si Thammarat). They melt continuously with Southern migrants from Malaysia and with Northern rulers (Thai), over centuries of commercial exchanges and political conflicts. Most probably the Mon stock remains prevalent for most of the people living nowadays in Southern Thailand, including people of Koh Yao.
Numerous cave paintings hidden in the many islands of the bay, extending from 2000 years ago to last century, attest the influence of distinct communities in the emergence of a mixed origin population, living now in the provinces of Phang Nga, Phuket, Krabi and Satun.
The most recent migrations (17th-18th century) from Satun and Trang to Ko Yao Yai and Koh Yao Noi is attested by the fact that the particular dialect spoken on the island still bear obvious Malaysian lexical traces, particularely regarding toponyms and vernacular names of the flora species.
The main industries on the island are fishing and rubber planting. A little rice farming and some fruit, palm and coconut plantations are evident. Boat building and farming techniques here have been passed from father to son and, while some of the youngsters leave Ko Yao to seek the bright lights of Phuket, most return to their tight knit community

La Fontana di Trevi és la font barroca més gran i coneguda de Roma. Data del segle XVIII i barreja classicisme i barroc, i potser la seva part més coneguda és l'escultura del déu Neptú.
El tema de l'escultura és el mar. L'escenografia està dominada per un carro amb forma de petxina damunt del qual es troba la gran estàtua de l'Oceà, o Neptú, de Pietro Bracci, a la fornícula esquerra es troba l'estàtua de l'Abundància i la de la Salut a la dreta, les dues de Filippo Valle. Els relleus superiors representen a Agripa aprovant la construcció de l'Aqua Virgo i la llegenda del seu origen. Es situa davant del Palazzo Poli, i té 19'8 metres d'amplada i 25'9 d'alçada, a manera de gran arc triomfal.

Enter the Nausikaa, a ship we had the pleasure of sailing quite a number of times.
A 3 mast Clipper, 54m, a combination of beauty and modern technology, she was built in Poland, now somewhere in The Mediterranean, mostly Greece, the owner got tired of the unpredictable North Sea weather.
I took a lot of images, have very fond memories of her.
This is the first in the series...
This was taken from the other side of the harbour as she sailed in, a second later, the sails were down!!!
Thanx, M, (*_*)
