Der Luftkur- und Wintersportort liegt etwa 14 km nordnordwestlich von Trient auf einer Höhe von 864 m s.l.m. östlich der Brenta-Gruppe am Ufer des Lago di Molveno und zu Füßen des östlich gelegenen Massivs der Paganella.
Der etwa 4 km langen Molvenossee, der bis zu 120 m tief ist, wird durch einen kleinen Bach und mehrere kleine Zuflüsse aus den Bergen gespeist.
Molveno is a comune (municipality) in Trentino in the northern Italian region of Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol, located about 40 kilometres (25 mi) northwest of Trento. It is famous for its positioning on Lake Molveno as a holiday destination, its nearby ski resorts (Andalo-Paganella and its connection to the National Park Adamello Brenta.
Molveno is located at the northern end of a 4-kilometre (2.5 mi) long lake (Lago di Molveno), at the foot of the Brenta Group and the Paganella mountain.
The Lake of Molveno, formed by a landslide about 4000 years ago, is the second largest in Trentino-Alto Adige, 3.3 square kilometres (1.3 sq mi). It has a maximum depth of 123 metres (404 ft). It's famous for its diverse fish species, including trout, arctic char and perch.

Cosmeston Lake is part of a public country park on the outskirts of Cardiff, it used to be a limestone quarry.
It has always been my wish to photograph the secretive Sora head-on showing its laterally compressed body, which allows it to slip and weave easily through dense vegetation. However, seeing the Sora in the open is notoriously difficult.
I was justifiably excited when I spotted this Sora walking cautiously along the path. And when it turned and looked straight into the lens for a brief instant, the angle, light and position were just right, as seen in this picture. Luck!
I am glad that I was ready and took advantage of that opportunity.

Thank you all very much for the visits and comments.
The position of Hohenzollern Castle is impressive by itself. All around wide lowlands are reaching out and in the middle the castle is enthroned on its mountain. The builders couldn't have chosen a better place.
Die Lage der Burg Hohenzollern ist an sich schon beeindruckend. Runderherum erstreckt sich eine weite Ebene und in der Mitte thront die Burg auf ihrem Berg. Einen besseren Platz hätten sich die Baumeister nicht suchen können.
An overcast day was not what I was hoping for but at least there was some movement in the clouds to capture!
I will be visiting Mwnt again for another go soon!
The Church of the Holy Cross at Mwnt, Ceredigion, Wales, is a parish church and Grade I listed building dating probably from the 13th century. The building was restored in 1853 and again after storm damage in 1917. A 1912 photograph shows the south windows in different positions.

One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice --
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
"Mend my life!"
each voice cried.
But you didn't stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do --
determined to save
the only life you could save.

The berlin cube cloudified and kaleidoscoped for Sliders Sunday. Composite made of two images taken there in mid July. The first image is a capture I took standing right next to the cube's facade and pointing the camera straight up. In Photoshop, I copied the layer with the original image, flipped the new layer horizontally, and cross-faded it with the first layer by using the blending mode "Overlay" at 75 % opacity. 100 % would have resulted in a punchier look on the right side, but I rather liked the softness and that it somehow looks as if the cube would slowly dissolve into or merge with the clouds. The next step was to replace the sky above the cube(s). For that I used a small part of the very first image I'd taken at the cube; I was just about to compose the image in the viewfinder when I noticed the bird, and decided to skip the composing part in favour of the bird ;-) (Birds, just like photographers, love the new berlin cube. There was a constant coming and going on the cube's roof, and it seems that, while not even all new tenants have moved in, yet, the cube's roof has already been occupied by the bird population that lives in the Hauptbahnhof area.) Next, I gently HDRified the finished composite in Aurora, then went into ON1 where I added some sunbeams to the upper sky part of the image, and added a soft glow for an extra airy look.
Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone, have a nice and safe new week ahead!
Kleine Spiegel-Spielerei vom "berlin cube" für den Sliders Sunday. Dieses Bild ist zusammengesetzt aus zwei verschiedenen Fotos, die ich dort Mitte Juli gemacht habe. Für Foto Nr. 1 hatte ich fast an der Fassade des Cubes gelehnt und die Kamera direkt nach oben gerichtet. Dieses Foto habe ich in Photoshop auf einer kopierten Ebene einfach horizontal gespiegelt und mit dem darunter liegenden Originalbild bei 75 % Deckkraft ineinanderkopiert. Danach habe ich den Himmel über "den Cubes" ersetzt, und zwar mit einem kleinen Teil des allerersten Fotos, das ich dort gemacht hatte. Ich war gerade dabei gewesen, eine gute Position zu finden, um den Cube möglichst sauber ausgerichtet fotografieren zu können, bemerkte dann aber den Vogel und beschloss, das saubere Ausrichten zugunsten des Vogels auf das nächste Foto zu verschieben ;-) Überhaupt ist der neue Cube schon sehr beliebt bei den Vögeln, die rund um den Berliner Hauptbahnhof leben. Während längst noch nicht alle Mieter in den Cube eingezogen sind, hat die Vogel-Gang vom Hauptbahnhof bereits das gesamte Dach in Beschlag genommen ;-) Bearbeitungstechnisch habe ich das fertig zusammengesetzte Bild erst in Aurora sanft HDRisiert und dann, in ON1, dem oberen Teil ein paar Sonnenstrahlen und zum Abschluss dem gesamten Foto ein leichtes Leuchten verpasst, um den luftig-leichten Look zu betonen.
Ich wünsche Euch einen guten Start in die neue Woche, bleibt gesund, liebe Flickr-Freunde :-)

Tuscany Landscape Photography Workshops & Tours www.melvinnicholsonphotography.co.uk/photography-workshops
Sunrise, Vitaleta Chapel, San Quirico d'Orcia, Tuscany
I returned home from running my Tuscany workshop last night and it was a great week with some great folk. It was so good to be back in one of the most beautiful parts of Europe, let alone Italy.
So here's an image of one of my favourite locations, the stunning Vitaleta Chapel which is a short walk from the roadside parking. I told my clients to be ready to leave the hotel at 5.30am for the short drive to the chapel and we were on location by 6am, a whole hour before sunrise and while that might sound pretty early considering that it was still dark when we arrived, it turned out to be an inspired decision as we bagged the best spots before anyone turned up.
Knowing that the sun rises to left of the chapel, I positioned my camera to capture the sunburst as it rose behind one of the Cyprus trees. I ramped up the aperture to f/16 to have the sunburst look more prominent.
***I have a limited number of places left on my September 2023 Tuscany Workshop***

I shot this last November in Destin, FL as the sun set over the ocean. I stumbled across it in my archives as I was searching for something to post.
After a very cloudy start to the evening I was about to go to bed when I thought I should check if the sky had cleared. It hadn't, but there was some patches of stars so I headed out to get some shots! After a bit of waiting I got this one, a big old gum tree in Wonoka creek just north of Hawker. Single shot processed in Lightroom. No remote for this camera yet, and only a 10 second self timer so I had to run to get into position!
One of my attempts for the "Macro Mondays" theme "Stone".
Shot with a (Tomioka) "Tominon MC 48 mm F 4" (enlarging) lens on a Canon EOS R5.
I positioned this bright white Clematis to cheer up a dark corner in the garden. It has turned out to be quite stunning !
Happy Caturday~ Looking on the Bright Side
When a cat is playing or frightened, they try to make themself look as big as possible. A stiff-legged hopping gait often accompanies this puffing out of their fur.
Jerri often assumes this pose when playing with Oscar, much to our amusement and delight!

The egret dropped and retrieved the same fish several times before getting it into this head-first position and swallowing it.
Unfortunately, I was not able to see this guy pupate. It happened in the wee hours of the morning when I was still snug in my bed. However, there is a beautiful Chrysalis hanging from this leaf now. I’ll post that picture tomorrow. Good luck on your transformation Monarch!
The Castle of Levizzano is located in a dominant position on the wonderful hills of the homonymous village in the municipality of Castelvetro. Its structure consists of a city wall in the centre of which there is the so-called Torre Matildica - Matildic Tower.
Starting from the 12th century, the fortified complex was restored and enlarged. In particular, next to the tower that was placed to protect the entrance to the Castle, a part of the feudal palace was erected and an underground tunnel was built, which still joins the Palace to the Tower.
Around the 16th century the buildings underwent important transformations: dating back to this period is the so-called "Stanza dei Vescovi" or Bishops’ Room, which has a ceiling with ancient wooden structures and a cycle of Renaissance frescoes. On the main floor, you can enter the charming loggia overlooking the hills dotted with vineyards from the main hall. Campo San Rocco and the ancient former Napoleonic cemetery stand in the immediate vicinity of the Castle.

Having found this frozen icicle I noticed that it was slowly melting. I waited patiently for the point when the ice was changing to water and dropping off the bottom of the icicle. It took many attempts until I finally caught the droplet in the optimum position.
