The serenity of mind… ….gentleness, silence, self-restraint, and the purity of mind are called the austerity of thought.

Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed.
Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.

Just got back from San Francisco today! I had a wonderful time :). My friend Linda and I walked around all day yesterday. We started at the marina, which had a wonderful view of Golden Gate Bridge. We then went to Fisherman's Warf for some delicious crab and Ghirardelli square for desert :). We ended the day at the Golden Gate Park, which is pull of beautiful gardens and museums...it was fantastic!
This photo was taken of a dandelion. It still had some dew left over from the morning.

Fragmento de: Pureza
Autor: Ramón López Velarde
Al sentir que vuela a ti mi fe última de niño
te consagro la sublime floración de mi cariño
porque brillas con fulgores de divina refulgencia
en las sombras impalpables que han envuelto mi existencia
cual destello cintilante de las luces de algún astro
o cual nítida blancura de una estatua de alabastro.

Fragment of: Purity
Author: Ramón López Velarde
When I feel that my last faith as a child flies to you
I consecrate the sublime bloom of my love
because you shine with glares of divine effulgence
in the impalpable shadows that have enveloped my existence
which sparkling flash of the lights of some star
or what a sharp whiteness of an alabaster statue.

He who loves with purity considers not the gift of the lover, but the love of the giver.

No HDR, no DRI, but still some processing: On the original shot, the sky was only 1/4 of what you see now. This is because I wanted to capture the maximum of the dune. But for the final composition, I wanted to make a square format with half sky/half dune, so what I did is 'expand' the sky using Photoshop's transform/scale tool.
Then applied a blue gradient on the sky, a curve with a layer mask to add some variation of luminosity on the dune.
And finally, I 'cloned out' lots of little debris here and there on the sand.

You all have a peaceful week ahead. Thank you vor visiting - as usual :-). Will be off for the next ten days and will try to get back to yu ASAP :-)
driving back from Lake Louise along the Bow Valley Park way I tried to find a stream with a perfect vantage point of Castle Mountain in the background that I stumbled upon a few years ago.
A few wrong turns later and I had re-found my location and, as hoped, Castle Mountain was perfectly positioned in the background.
As well as a stunning mountainous vista I also managed to find a nice little calm side stream nestled amongst some snowy trees.
It was around midday so I planned to return the next morning before a day of snowboarding for some better light.
When I arrived the following morning things were looking good, crisp and clean with only one problem, the car was giving me an outside temperature of -19 degree’s centigrade.
I knew that to photograph my little side stream I would need to position myself in a foot of water so, with my gum boots in hand I ventured on.
Down by the water it was at least another 4-5 degree’s cooler, feeling very fresh and alive I set to work on capturing both of my locations, my vista of Castle Mountain as well as my little stream.
Here is my take on the second.
