Maastricht is located on both sides of the Meuse river and there is lots of river traffic. I noticed that on the back of the barges are cars, I just wander how they get them on and off...
The name Maastricht is derived from Latin, meaning 'crossing at the Meuse', and referring to the bridge built by the Romans. The Latin name first appears in medieval documents and it is not known whether this was Maastricht's official name during Roman times.
Seriously viewing on black adds so much to the image!!

Weather was still really gross today, so I was playing around with color curves on photoshop. Inspired by the most recent Phlearn episode :)

I wanted to do a print giveaway now that I'm done with my 365, as a thank you to everyone:) I think I have this set up so that only people that I have added as my contact can comment, since I want to thank all the people that have commented and favorited my photos and I don't want a lot of random people entering. But I know there are a lot of people who have had me as a contact for awhile who have commented on my photos, but I haven't added them back yet, or else I accidentally deleted them (I've done this many times before - its an issue.) So if you're one of these people and you'd like to enter, message me and I'll add you:)
I'm only giving away photos from my prints set. Just put the link to the photo you'd like in [ ] and in about two weeks I'll pick ten winners. It doesn't matter where you live, I can mail them anywhere:)
UPDATE: I'm closing this tomorrow, and I'll announce the winners later in the day:) CLOSED

This image comes from a series taken at Wakehurst Place, West Sussex - it's a National Trust property with botanical gardens, manor house, huge grounds including forests and lakes, and is also home to the millennium seed bank project.
Edd, Haydee and I were lucky enough that they were holding a festival all weekend, and that festival included a Birds of Prey display. This is the Falconer and owner of these amazing birds. I don't like animals being held captive but he lets his out to hunt and they apparently always come back. This Peregrine was being particularly playful with the owner, it gave me a really good impression of how well his birds are looked after. I believe he works for a sanctuary that he was collecting for, so fair play to him!
A new restaurant for eastern tastes that has appeared on Stapleton Road. It doesn't really help to have a "No Entry" sign right in front of the entrance. Maybe that is the reason for adding things that look like eyes to it to appear more welcoming!
Kind of copying the wonderful work my Flickr friend, RainerSchuetz does with trees and landscapes! I can't come close to what he does! See his marvelous set:
So, we have decided to make the 261 a single decker route due to low usage, meaning that we've sold two of our Geminis to Crossways in return for two Eclipse Urbans! There are more 261 nets to come...
Taken in baggage claim at the Denver International Airport, this contraption appears to convey long/tall baggage such as skis and long guns.

No seriously I need help! :(
This bugger has been annoying me for the past few days, I have tried so many different ways of building a good body but to no avail. So I went onto Skyrim and took out my frustration on Alduin.
I really need help/inspiration! If you see any techniques or ways of builing that you think can help, please feel free to tell me!
It's shot through glass and at ISO 6400 as it was almost dark out but I'm pleased with it nonetheless. I have to say I am very happy with my new Tamron 90mm 2.8 Macro lens

So I'm supposed to be doing a shoot for a model portfolio soon so for a bit of practice me and my friend Jess went to try different things out and find good locations etc... It was a good laugh but unfortunately I wasn't as organised as I'd hoped because I had a busy weekend with my girlfriends prom! So we'll have to try again and be more prepared. haha!
If anyone knows any good books/websites with pose ideas it would be a huge help!

It's so amazing the way nature has set things up. Look at the orange pollen on the hairs in it's face.
It is interesting the way these flower are shaped as well. In order for the bee to reach the nectar it will have to push it's face into the flower and thereby pollinate this flower. They have one purpose in life and that is to reproduce and facilitate the reproduction of stationary life. These bees couldn't care less that I am there trying to take a picture. They have more important things to do, like unwittingly pollinate flowers all over the country side. It's wings are all getting a little tattered on the ends but it carries on with it's programming.
