TT Artisan 35mm F1.4 on Fuji XE3

© 2013 Thousand Word Images by Dustin Abbott

I am doing some work for Alien Skin right now and am experimenting with some of their other software, including Snap Art 3. I'm enjoying putting some of my recent shots through the "painting" process and producing my version of art. I don't have the skill with the brush, but I do have the skill with the light and the lens, and this enables my artistic side to "play" beyond my natural abilities. This old barn is just a few minutes walk from my house, and always catched my eye - particularly when the light is right. It has a great, rustic texture to it, and the great narrow depth of field that my 135mm f/2L lens was perfect to give me a nice contrast of dreamy foregound and nice detail on the textures of the barn.

Rustic History

For the Fenced Friday group. HFF

COURTESY : Dr. JAYARAM'S GARDEN, SECOND MAIN ROAD, V.V. MOHALLA, MYSORE, SOUTH INDIA

Old house on Route N, south of Columbia, MO

This living room was designed in a brown theme with a touch of a rough and rustic-looking wall. This introduces texture into the space making it feel quite relaxing and calm.

The wooden/timber joinery works on the focal wall complements the textured wall and overall theme colours. The furniture aligns with the design nicely as well. Overall, amazing space.

Found image. Having acquired a rustic summer house I take a particular interest in showing fences and furniture made in similar ways. This family is particularly well equippedl with chairs, tables, an arbour, arches and fences made from twisted wood. Was this a business or the product of a keen amateur? Unfortunately there is nothing on the back of the card to help us out.

I didn't edit this at all! I used a tripod.

Thanks for your visit have a great weekend!

Queso de leche cruda de vaca, elaborado por Nicolau Torra en su quesería “Caterí” ubicada en Calders, un municipio de la comarca, del Moyanés, en la provincia de Barcelona.

Hecho de manera tradicional y envejecido durante 4 a 6 meses en bodegas de más de 300 años de historia, estos locales no tienen ni la humedad ni la temperatura constante ni controlada, por lo que el queso sufre importantes variaciones, creando así un queso de aspecto rústico y seco, pero con un sabor autentico que nos recuerda los quesos de antaño.

This 15m-high waterfall is a few kilometres south of Mammoth on US-89 in the Golden Gate Canyon. It cannot be missed, because it is right by the side of the road and clearly visible when approaching from the north.

It is somewhat unusual as the base of the waterfall appears to be as broad as the fall is tall, giving a very fan-shaped perspective when seen head-on. The falls are on Glen Creek and highlight the bedding planes clearly visible in the rock face on the far side.

Seen in late August when the flow is presumably at its lowest...
