Simplicity is the glory of expression.
Walt Whitman
Have a wonderful Sunday everyone. I managed to get out for a walk in the park yesterday before the rains started again. It was hot out, but so nice to be out there.

Semplicità.
Questa parola mi ha messo in difficoltà.
Io nascondo la semplicità dietro tanto nero.
Ho deciso di immortalare le mie mani senza colore, senza smalto ne anelli.
Due mani semplici, l'emblema della ricerca.
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Simplicity.
This word gives me troubles.
I hide simplicity behind black.
I decided to immortalize my hands without colours, without nail polish or rings.
Two simple hands, research' symbol.
My 52weeks project with IGP.
Please respect my work.

We were sitting having dinner on Thursday evening when I suddenly noticed this Graham Thomas rose in our garden illuminated by the early twilight sun and the purple bush behind it in our neighbour's garden.
Quick grab of camera and macro lens and - snap - a simple shot.
Sometimes the best opportunities are just under your nose.
A friend very kindly invited me to go south of the city today to a place called Frank Lake. The weather was overcast for a good part of the morning but the sun did finally come through just before we returned home. We saw a great variety of birds, which was a real treat. Most were far away in the distance, but I have been able to bring them a little closer with cropping. I just liked the patterns made by the reeds in the Lake and their reflections.
È molto semplice essere felici, ma è molto difficile essere semplici.

i dream that someday the step between my mind and my finger will no longer be needed,
and that simply by blinking my eyes, i shall make pictures
then, i think, i shall really have become a photographer.

sueño con que un dia el paso entre mi mente y mi dedo deje de ser necesario
y que simplemente con pestañear tome una foto,
entonces, creo, realmente me habré convertido en fotografo

"He who is brave is free."- Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Scott and I went over to the beach today for a few photo opportunites, and after unsuccessfully chasing a woodpecker for a while we headed over to the water as the sun was starting to set.
I tried a few more elborate photos, but in the end, the last photo I shot was perfect, just the way it was. So no changes, no processing, just a simple sunset to close the day.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Heading north on California’s Highway 395 in the eastern Sierra just past the southern turnoff to the June Lake Loop there is a section of landscape that always draws my attention. I have stopped many times, allowing my mind and eyes the freedom to investigate this unusual attraction. I rarely make photographs here. This stop usually manifests into an opportunity to simply stretch my legs, make room for more coffee and the opportunity to refill my mug.
Subconsciously, I know there are many photographs to be discovered and created here. But I rarely can decipher the clues.
On this recent stop something was different. Maybe it was the soft diffused light. Maybe it was the sensual perfume of the approaching rain. Maybe it was just the overall relaxing feeling of this moment in time. Or maybe it was a combination of the previous and or other influencers that lingered unnoticed. Leaning back against the driver’s side door sipping strong black coffee I once again found myself studying the complexity of this familiar landscape. Then without warning, I discovered this rather simplistic composition. It had been there all along. Many years. Countless stops. Waiting to be discovered.
Ceremoniously I set up my tripod and carefully attached my camera. It took a few attempts to work out my desired composition and exposure. I made this photograph as a light refreshing rain began to fall.

"Simplicity, patience, compassion.
These three are your greatest treasures.
Simple in actions and thoughts, you return to the source of being.
Patient with both friends and enemies,
you accord with the way things are.
Compassionate toward yourself,
you reconcile all beings in the world." ~ Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching
My very first shot with my new B+W filter (ND1000) cant remember how long the exposure was but it was about 4 minutes with ISO 400. The sun was setting quickly so wanted to not do a too long of exposure, however will plan a bit better next time and use ISO 100 as the noise on this photo is really annoying (although its pretty small). Anyway quite like this for a first effort with this filter and pleased i managed to get the right exposure :)
Thanks a lot for all your comments :)
Please check out my other new shot with this filter www.flickr.com/photos/paulwynn-mackenze/5497371746/ and www.flickr.com/photos/paulwynn-mackenze/5495409496/
Thanks :)

On a less simple note...I got a new laptop today (replacement for a faulty one) and am bogged down with setting it up - mainly because I haven't managed to connect it to the internet - hey ho! So I am not mentally in a very "flickr" mood right now :-)
Will be around to visit a bit later on.....
I've tried to create a wee smile from folding the towel or maybe it's just my imagination that it's happy. One of pieces of advice from the camera club is "KIS" keep it simple.
Beauty of style and harmony and grace and good rhythm depend on simplicity
