The Bochumer Verein/ Jahrhunderthalle is a subway station below Alleestrasse in the Stahlhausen district of Bochum. It is located on the site of the former Bochum Association steelworks with the Jahrhunderthalle and Westpark. The Century House and the Thyssen Krupp House are not far away on the street.
Some travelers are going back to their home countries, relishing fond memories of their vacation.
Although for some, the airport meant going away for work in a distant country, just to earn a living for their families here.

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Some distant eye contact here in a shot that instantly caught my eye. The shapes of the light and shadow, the position of the subjects and in relation to my position especially - I just loved this composition. Enjoy full screen by pressing 'L'.
This spot will be familiar to many Brampton/Caledon/Orangeville photographers so I am hoping this is a new take on a familiar scene.
This is a scene that, eventually, is going to be changing quite significantly, the evening Rocky Mountaineer crosses 72nd Avenue in Arvada. In November 2018, voters in the City of Arvada approved a measure to widen 72nd Avenue and create a grade separate with the tracks here. The project was originally slated to be completed in 2024. However, significant delays have been incurred, and now the project is expected to be completed in 2028. Apparently, the delays are largely due to design conversations with Union Pacific.

This year I decided to collect Zinnia seeds for the first time. Having completely blocked out what the seed that I planted looked like, I proceeded to see If I could find the seeds in the dried flower. Pulling a few odd pieces out out of the debris, I checked on the internet and was surprised that I found the pods. However, they all may not bring forth a plant. We will see next Spring.
I photographed these succulent flowers outside in the garden this afternoon. They were in the sun, so I used camera settings that caused the background to go dark so that I would have separation.
Lighting stuff: Lit with a Yongnuo manual flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box, hand held at camera left. Fill light came from a hand mirror at camera right. The flash and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. For each image in the set, and there are over 1700 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/
If you like pictures of cactus and succulents, you might enjoy my Cactus and Succulents set. That set can be seen here, and has over 400 images in it.
separation from you feels like abomination
of mine soul ... a journey away from salvation
how selfish of me to hold you back ... ah the temptation
forgive me for expressing my heart's translation
what is it i feel ? is this desperation ?
or is it a yearning to approach my destination ?
a lack of emotion you reckon ? or merely isolation?
no..? yes..? no..? insane is this fascination !!!
unlike ever felt before... tremendous dedication
composed of loyalty inspiring endless motivation
sometimes i wonder will i find an explanation ?
a revelation perhaps to fulfill this levitation ?
uncertainty encompasses the realm of this situation
truly it is from Allah a difficult tribulation
steer will i away from your eternal congregation?
or cling will i to this endeavour without hesitation?
harsh criticisms i have heard of my determination
shall not that deter me from my occupation
verily if that were even a slight consideration
would my world collapse ..... total annhilation
Oh Lord of the worlds i request some simplification
that removal of pain that divine recuperation
Thy knowledge i seek eagerly with anticipation
grant me my soul's obsession and avoid my victimization
I confirm oh Allah your magnificent predestination
rescue me from this devastation of separation

I have a six degrees of separation with this portrait. Kehinde Wiley is the artist that painted this portrait which is hanging in the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa. He is known for painting large images using African Americans as subjects and using famous paintings as inspiration. This painting is huge, it is almost ten feet across. Here is a link to the original painting:

Now for the six degrees of separation. I went to school in Hawaii at Punahou as did Barack Obama while I was a student there. He was a couple of years behind me, but I never met him. Mr. Wiley was chosen to be the official portrait painter for Mr. Obama when he was in office. I looked it up online and it is a pretty amazing portrait of the President. If you made it this far, thanks for reading.

They arise and they pass away.
To be in harmony with this truth
Brings great happiness."
Finally worked through an image this weekend. Since switching processing methods and not using layers or masks, I've found I can work through waterfall/forest shots in like 15-30 min. But, any other landscape shot takes me 10x longer. I think I must just have a clearer vision for what I want a waterfall photo to look like, haven't gotten there with any other scene yet. Back to this shot, if you're ever driving around Olympic National Park there's a good chance you might drive pass this one. I can't for the life of me remember the name of this falls, but it is in the Quinault area and it is right off the road. Not the greatest waterfall you will ever see, but it had some great foreground material that made it a blast to shoot. Lots of ferns and boulder parting the creek as it cascaded down. The variety of Olympic NP make it my favorite park in the lower 48. Waterfalls like this, coast scenes like my last shot posted, and some of the best alpine areas you can imagine. This is just one shot from a Nikon D800e. Almost all of my work in post was dodging/burning, with a little variation of an Orton effect added as well.
