two thoughts: i do this drive-by shot maybe four times a week and never get it centered. until today. i don't think that's meaningful, just useful since i don't want to actually pull over in winter. so here we have another one of my over-used motifs. thought 2, entirely random, was that naming a tunnel after lincoln was pretty insulting if you compare it to the george washington bridge. driving thru the lincoln tunnel is like driving thru the port authority bathrooms, circa 1972. the only remotely awesome thing about the lincoln tunnel is that it was built under a river. well, maybe that's the answer. beauty is only river deep.

This is Stu Goldspink at the controls of Spitfire Mk IX, serial MH434.
The Mk IX Spitfire was rushed into production in 1942 when it became clear that the then current Spitfire Mk V was being outclassed in battle by the Focke-Wulf Fw 190.
The Spitfire Mk IX was essentially a Mk V fitted with the new, more powerful, Rolls-Royce Merlin 60 engine with its two-stage supercharger, which put it on a more equal footing with the Fw 190. Spitfire test pilot Jeffrey Quill described the Mk IX's performance as a 'quantum leap' over the Mk V.
Based at Duxford, but seen here at nearby Old Warden on a rainy August day. ('Nearby' - about 40 minutes by road, but only 5 - 10 minutes by Spitfire!)

**🎬 Prompt (FR) :**
Une scène hyperréaliste en macro-cinéma représentant une baleine biomécanique futuriste flottant à l’intérieur d’une goutte d’eau parfaitement sphérique en suspension dans l’air. La goutte agit comme un micro-écosystème autonome, avec un fond marin miniature composé de roches, de végétation aquatique luxuriante et de micro-organismes lumineux.
La baleine, massive et majestueuse, possède une peau mêlant textures organiques réalistes et structures mécaniques avancées : plaques métalliques finement intégrées, circuits lumineux bleutés pulsants, cœur énergétique circulaire irradiant une lumière cyan intense depuis son flanc. Ses yeux émettent une lueur douce et intelligente. Des détails microscopiques révèlent des joints, câbles et nanostructures fusionnés avec des tissus biologiques.
Autour d’elle, de petits poissons nagent en bancs, capturés avec un flou de mouvement subtil. L’eau dans la goutte présente une surface interne avec tension de surface visible, légèrement ondulée, captant et réfractant la lumière.
**Éclairage :**
Lumière volumétrique froide et cinématographique, dominante bleu/teal, avec des reflets spéculaires réalistes sur la surface de la goutte. Halo lumineux doux autour de la sphère. Effet de caustiques aquatiques projetées à l’intérieur. Particules flottantes visibles dans l’air et dans l’eau.
**Ambiance :**
Silencieuse, contemplative, légèrement futuriste et onirique, mélange de nature et de technologie. Sensation d’un monde encapsulé, fragile et précieux.
**Caméra :**
Plan rapproché en légère contre-plongée, profondeur de champ faible (bokeh cinématographique), focus ultra net sur la baleine et le cœur lumineux. Lent effet de travelling avant.
**Qualité visuelle :**
Ultra haute définition, photoréalisme extrême, rendu 8K, textures détaillées, ray tracing, global illumination, HDR, rendu type film de science-fiction haut de gamme.
**Style :**
Fusion entre nature océanique et science-fiction avancée, esthétique proche de concept art AAA, inspiration studios VFX (cinéma haut budget).

**🎬 Prompt (EN):**
An ultra-realistic macro-cinematic scene depicting a futuristic biomechanical whale suspended inside a perfectly spherical droplet of water floating in mid-air. The droplet functions as a self-contained micro-ecosystem, featuring a miniature ocean floor with textured rocks, lush aquatic vegetation, and faintly glowing microorganisms.
The whale is massive and majestic, its body seamlessly blending organic realism with advanced mechanical design. Its skin reveals intricate metallic plating, embedded circuitry, and softly pulsing bioluminescent lines in shades of cyan and electric blue. A radiant circular energy core glows intensely from within its side, casting subtle light through semi-translucent layers. Its eyes emit a calm, intelligent glow. Microscopic details expose joints, cables, and nanostructures fused with biological tissue.
Surrounding the whale, small fish swim in delicate schools, captured with subtle motion blur. The inner surface of the droplet shows visible surface tension, gently warping reflections and refracting light in complex ways.
**Lighting:**
Cool-toned cinematic volumetric lighting dominated by blue and teal hues. Realistic specular highlights shimmer across the droplet’s surface. Soft halo glow envelops the sphere. Dynamic underwater caustics ripple within. Fine floating particles drift both inside the water and in the surrounding air.
**Mood & Atmosphere:**
Silent, contemplative, slightly futuristic and dreamlike. A poetic fusion of nature and technology. The scene evokes the feeling of a fragile, self-contained world suspended in time.
**Camera:**
Close-up shot with a subtle low-angle perspective. Shallow depth of field with cinematic bokeh. Razor-sharp focus on the whale and its glowing energy core. Gentle forward dolly movement.
**Visual Quality:**
Extreme photorealism, ultra-high definition, 8K resolution, highly detailed textures, ray tracing, global illumination, HDR rendering. Premium sci-fi film aesthetic.
**Style:**
A fusion of oceanic naturalism and advanced science fiction. High-end concept art style inspired by AAA VFX studios and blockbuster cinema.

At the border of the high Padan Plain, just at the feet of the first line of the Prealps, there lays a string of five lakes. They draw a line that is the base of the so-called Larian triangle, i.e. the triangle-shaped mountainous land between the two arms of the Lake Como (also called Lario). These lakes, often called the Lakes Briantei, or the Brianza Lakes (from the name of that land, Brianza), are way smaller than the Lario and the other great lakes of Northern Italy - just a string of beads in the higher plain - but they share the beauty of their larger cousins, although on a smaller, more intimate scale. I have always felt quite strongly the fascination of their common origin, which dates from the end of the Würm glaciation, some 11,700 years ago. I can easily see in my mind the enormous, mighty glaciers from the Alps flowing beyond the last mountains and spreading through the high plain. A powerful sight, indeed... Yet all that glory was deemed to end as the climate was becoming warmer, and eventually the glaciers began to recede, leaving behind deep ditches and huge semilunar terminal morains. You can easily fill in the story - the melting waters, the swamps, the debris from the looming mountains, and, eventually, the lakes.
Well, this is not a lesson in geology - I am by no means an expert, just a guy who perceives geology in a deeply emotional way (quite possibly a trait acquired from my late father, who was a passionate amateur mineral and fossil prospector).
I have begun a photographic exploration of those relics of the last glaciation, the Lakes Briantei. At sunrise, of course.
My first session was at the Lake Annone, the largest one, that is divided in two basins by a narrow peninsula. I limited myself to the Western basin, mostly looking Eastward.
This is a detail landscape showing, if needed, how a grand landscape may have smaller, complete landscapes nestled within itself. There could be many landscapes-within-a-landscape, every photographer might perceive and discover new ones. I loved this detail, as a gap between the mountains lets the eye run further and further away, following the outlines of distant mountains as the air becomes more and more transfixed with golden light, until it reaches the lone, elegant outline of the Pizzo dei Tre Signori (= "Peak of the Three Lords", a name stemming from the historical division of the area that it marked, between the State of Milan, the Republic of Venice and the Grisons canton of Switzerland). I am bound to this mountain by epic, adventurous memories from my youth and this quantum tunnel beams both my eye and my mind from the lake directly to that proud peak (which is some 30 km away), as the enticing, sparkling reflections on the waters of the lake make my soul dance. I hope that the photo is good enough to stir emotions within your heart as well... Have a happy Sunday!
I have processed this picture by blending an exposure bracketing [-2.0/-1.0/0/+1.0/+2.0 EV] by luminosity masks with the Gimp (EXIF data, as usual, refer to the "normal" exposure shot).
Along the journey - post-processing always is a journey of discovery to me - I tried the inverted RGB blue channel technique described by Boris Hajdukovic to give a slight tonal boost to several parts of the scene. As usual, I gave the finishing touches with Nik Color Efex Pro 4.
Raw files processed with Darktable.

A relatively recent discovery in the realm of physics, quantum entanglement is bizarre, eerie, mysterious, and seemingly magical. Albert Einstein shied away from the theory, calling it "spooky action at a distance." Since then, however, numerous experiments have confirmed this strange phenomenon. Basically, entangled particles can be separated from each other, over incredibly long distances--light years, in fact--and still mysteriously change when its partner is acted upon, almost as if there were an invisible umbilical cord connecting them. This seemingly conscious connection between entangled particles even occurs faster than the speed of light, a fact that made Einstein so leery about this possibility. The frontier of scientific discovery always has been a place of wonder, imagination, curiosity and delight, and never more so than in our time. This topic is very complex; this is only the most basic description of the phenomenon, and I am but an enthralled layman. That aside, it's incredibly fascinating--I suggest you take the time to learn a little about it! The ramifications of this discovery are very interesting--some even speculate that people can be entangled in a way, an incredibly fascinating ramification that only suggests something many of us believe anyway, though for different reasons.
Needless to say, the Universe is a big, strange and wonderful place.
