Went to Bamberg with my wife and she went shopping and I took some shots with my D800 & AF-S 16-35/f4 and the AF-S 70-200/f4.
I purchased Luminar AI a few weeks ago and took my first baby-steps. I did not exchange the sky or else. I only took a suitable template, adjusted the coloration to taste and played with contrast, sharpness , white balance and cropping.
I was driving at 85 miles and hour down a deserted straight desert road when the highway came to a sudden curve. Before I went flying off the road I took this picture.
The rugged southern slopes of Blencathra are a joy to explore, this is Sharp Edge (more to the eastern side of Blencathra) and makes for a rewarding scramble to the summit.

"The name ‘Sodom’ is mentioned in the book of Genesis concerning the city of sinners that Lot, Abraham’s nephew, had to escape from after protecting his angel-guests from a wrathful mob. The cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were entirely destroyed by Divine Power and this mountain was there to observe the scene.
Mount Sodom is located to the west of the southern basin of the Dead Sea, and is an extraordinary geological phenomenon: apart from some thin layers of silt and marl it is made entirely of salt. During the evaporation of the previous stages of the Dead Sea, tons of salt and other minerals were deposited within the steep shoulders of the seabed.
Over the years salt accumulated to a layer of 4km height, on top of which eroded rocks and other minerals were deposited. The underground heat had melted the salt, and the weight of the rocks above creates a pressure that forces the melted salt up along the sides. The mountain is an outcome of this massive force, and it keeps rising 1cm per year.
Mount Sodom is 11km long and approximately 2km wide. The mountain top is 200m above the Dead Sea and reaches a height of 190m below sea level. Since the surface soil is made of more than 95% salt, no plant can grow on the mountain. This creates a moon-like landscape. Contrary to any other rock, the salt dissolves rapidly in water. Erosion and creation of underground cavities are more than 50 times faster than in limestone or dolomite.
The “Malch’am” (The Israeli Center for Caves Research) Cave beneath Mount Sodom is the longest known cave in Israel, and the longest single natural salt cave in the world. It is 5,500m long and is full of breath-taking salt stalactites, with endless vertical and horizontal volumes."

After countless days of gloomy weather, the sun has finally emerged from behind the dark grey clouds early in the morning. With the strong light emitted by the scorching sun, it enhanced the architectural design of the ArtScience Museum located at the very heart of Marina Bay Sands.
Despite the fact that the ArtScience Museum is shaped like a lotus, a cleavage of a gigantic architecture could be seen and hence, the name ‘Sharp Division’.
- www.kevin-palmer.com - I just barely made it to Cholla Garden in time for sunrise on a clear morning. The sunlight may look warm, but the temperature was in the 20's. Cholla cactus have a fuzzy and glowing appearance when they are backlit by the sun. You have to watch where you're going on this trail because if you barely brush up against a cholla, they seem to jump out and attach themselves to you.
