It’s not often I see an arch inside a slot canyon but seeing a double arch view was a total treat. With the ever-changing light the back wall came alive with a scintillating yellow glow while the second arch was bathed in cool tones. Slowly the light traversed across the chamber as the walls were also bathed in glowing yellow light. Together with overlapping layers, a spectrum of colors, and multitude of textures, this chamber has all the quintessential slot canyon characteristics that show its history of being slowly carved by water and wind.

Shot from a friend's Fujifilm GFX100. The quality was really something else altogether!

Fujisan Alleyway
This narrow alleyway is located right next to Fuji-san View (Old Town Shimoyoshida Street), the popular street that faces Mt Fuji that everyone loves to pose at. Still, it's probably a safer spot as opposed to standing in the middle of a busy street.
We were here for sunrise when we met @sao.flower and her kid taking photos for Instagram, and they were kind enough to pose for us, so we had an impromptu family portraiture session too!

اعطّر انفاسي ..بــ (شانيل) لافاح
....وابلل بدمعي .../ جفاف المحابر....
طب انت قلّي : انك بخير ../ برتاااح
.... موّتني فراقك ..وصمتك ../مقابر..!!
ماطحت بس القلب من غيبتك طااااح
....عجزت اخبّي هالشعور .. واكاااابر..

There must be many angels in the hospice, helping people with their transitions. The silence is scintillating.
So far I've been unable to learn the name of the artist but I will post it here when I learn it.

A quick peep inside a geode --
Geodes are spherical to subspherical rock structures with an internal cavity lined with mineral materials. They have a durable outer wall that is more resistant to weathering than the surrounding bedrock. This allows the geode to survive intact when the surrounding bedrock weathers away. The mineral lining the cavity is often a scintillating druse of tiny quartz crystals underlain by multiple bands of translucent gray and white agate. Many are lined with more spectacular treasures.
Rich purple amethyst, perfect white calcite crystals, and colorful banded agate are other common linings. Rare geodes can be filled with beautiful blue gem silica, pink rhodochrosite, spectacular opal with vivid play-of-color or other rare materials. Geodes range in size from under one centimeter to several meters in length. From the outside most geodes look like common rocks, but when they are opened the sight can be breathtaking.

"From the strangled breath
Of my bodies' corpse-like repose
I was reborn on wings of Death
And from that gasp arose
To alight on winds Tartarean
Across the gulfs of Erebos
In flight declined Hesperian
To the throne of Icelos
As Noctua I flew to seek
As dread and sacral bird
To pluck the eye with beak
And steal the sacral word
The true-sworn name of Daemon
The Secret hidden within the Lie
Unknown by priest of layman
And learned that name was I...
As naught is the aspect of the one
Who comes before me
Naught is the name of the one
Who resides within me
Adorn me with twain minded mask
Of Janus
Oh, Gatekeeper
Ceremented in paradox
Sable on shadow
I see you!
Radian in waves of darkness
Black static scintillations
Cascading abyss
Drown me in madness
Furoris divinales
Raise me from my flesh
As you awaken the Son of Pan
Within me
Sardonic Mask of Night
Beneath which is no-thing
Nous of the Void
Form-changer
Shade shifter
Syrinx Piper of Death's Silence
Ceremented in paradox
Shadow of Midnight."

This is NH 22,the picturesque road to Kinnaur, passes through scintillating landscapes and therefore a destination by itself.This shot taken in Jhakri on way to Sarahan lays open the hillscape through which NH22 progresses hugging the Sutlej river. Down and on the right is the Nathpa-Jakhri hydroelectric project,the largest in Asia. Favour large.
Intentional Camera Movement handheld,- my first Autumn walk proper this year. I just loved the gold and how the leaves seemed to scintillate in the sidelight, so thought I'd try to catch a sprinkle of the magic...

On Day 2 of our quest to search for Rhodies, Jave, Alan, and I ventured just south of crescent city to Del Norte Redwoods State Park. As we began hiking, we were constantly scanning the forest for any patches of Rhododendrons blooming. Seemingly, we were late to the show in Del Norte as majority of the Rhododendron trees were past peak and had already lost their blooms. Further to our dismay, the dense morning fog did not reach this part of the forest. Hope seemed lost as it appeared we were hiking just to burn calories.
And then it happened. Some light patchy fog began to creep through the forest as the morning sun rose higher into the sky. There were two beams at first. Upon seeing the potential beginning of a light show, we all dropped our bags and grabbed our gear. As we setup, the light show exploded. Boom….light beams radiated in all directions as the once dull forest came alive scintillating with glowing warmth. Hands down the best light beams I have ever witnessed.
P.S. No pixels were harmed using radial blur to concoct imaginary light beams.

A frame from my timelapse of the Lahaina Noon/September Equinox solar phenomenon in Jurong West at midday on 23 September 2018! This is probably as close as you can get to having the sun directly centred in the frame for this composition, since there's only two times in the year where it'll be directly overhead, thus giving the world around you a very surreal atmosphere with extremely harsh but evenly-lit light, and yet with minimal shadows. Thank goodness for extremely clear skies!
Because of this special solar position, tall objects like lamp-posts and bollards will take on an almost 3D-rendered outlook to them, as shadows casted will be directly below any object since the sun is directly above. Buildings and other structures are evenly-lit with harsh sunlight on all sides, making them feel as if they've been 'greenscreened' into your surroundings.
Corrected for distortion and flare removal. Buildings and sun positions are untouched.

The first of what would probably be a whole slew of New Zealand imagery. Just got back from my getaway but already missing the countryside, but my backlog will indeed keep me busy!
