I had to come to a screeching halt in the middle of rush hour traffic when I spotted this white brick house with the sky and a golden tree reflecting on it. It is only a few blocks from my house and I have never noticed this beautiful house until today.
There isn't much to see on my favorite private jetty except for the spectacular sunsets that you can almost reach out and touch, the only noise coming from the birds or the odd kangaroo behind me passing by.
This shot was taken in Porkkala, Finland during Sunday mid-day. I used a 2 stop GND filter and merged 3 shots (-1, 0 and +1 stop) in PS creating a HDR image. This is how it came out.
Incoming clouds from the east gets a orange/red colour due to the setting sun in the west.

Norway is a place of endless natural beauty. Incredible fjords, winding small roads, raw tunnels carved through the bedrock and so much more. These images are from summer road trips during 2024.

_ACJ6271 - Last Friday's commute from Lymington and a bit more experimenting with the variable filter shooting into the sun and not getting those hot spots, not that impressed with the composition, but at least what I was attempting in the way of light worked.
f8 at ISO 400 and 1/250 without the filter that was up in the 1/8000 range even with a ISO 200 :)
To be honest not that much lost in the colour either, unable to push the ND up higher due to full blacking in the centre, so pulled back a little to correct it and hence the ISO and 1/250

7/100 Possibilities (photos of one object- I chose my shell)
I went swimming in Florida Bay, and snorkeled under the mangroves. Since I don't have an underwater camera to take the photographs I would like, to show the magic of the underwater world under the mangrove forests, I thought that maybe I could bring a piece of the beauty to the surface.
No star fish was injured for this shoot. There are star fish nurseries on the mangrove underwater prop roots. (See first comment below for a piece of prop root, which I found already broken off- and returned it right to the water after photographing. In the water the prop roots are vertical, and are the continuation of the above water arched root/trunks-- see also photo below "Sunset on the Mangroves" to see the above water view.) I found this star fish on a prop root, brought him out to photograph him, on a mirror, and then returned him to the water. The shell is also a native sea snail, which I found while swimming, already dead, from a natural death. The green tree blurred reflections are from a buttonwood tree, another Key Largo native along the shoreline.

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot,
With a pink hotel, a boutique,
And a swinging hot spot.
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
They took all the trees and put them in a tree museum.
And they charged all the people
A dollar and a half just to see 'em.
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Hey, farmer, farmer, put away that D.D.T., now!
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees, please!
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Late last night I heard the screen door slam.
And a big yellow taxi took away my old man.
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.

Early morning stillness at Zaanse Schans, the heart of old Holland.
As the sun rises over the traditional wooden houses and white bridge, the calm canal mirrors every detail — a perfect reflection of Dutch serenity.
One of those quiet moments where light, water, and history align just right. 🌅
Runner-up for this week’s 52Frames theme: “Reflections.”
A wrong exit on the way to a job site in Akron rerouted me through the University of Akron campus—where the mirrored facade of the Goodyear Polymer Center stopped me in my tracks. Designed by Richard Fleischman and completed in 1991, the building’s twin towers and glass walkways reflect not just the sky, but Akron’s industrial legacy.
After wrapping up work, I returned to walk the perimeter and shoot from every angle. The structure houses over 60 labs and the International Rubber Science Hall of Fame, but on this day, it was the interplay of glass and cloud that stole the show.
Sometimes the best reflections come from unexpected turns.
I liked this simple image of a tree(s) reflection in a pond at the RHS Garden in Wisley, UK. I hope you do too!
Hi Peeps ! , Well after spending a few months laying around on the beaches soaking up the sun, Barely picking up my camera I though I had better get back to it. Summer isn't a great time for colour in the sky except when the bushfires are raging, but tonight I decided to go back to my usual haunts and focus my mind. it seems like forever since I have been back here yet this spot is a minute from my house, the tourists have all but gone and I somehow got through it thanks to the heaps of sharks spotted on the beaches, mention shark here and the tourists flee, suits me just fine. Anyways tonight wasn't looking very hopeful there was a lot of smoke in the sky due to a massive fires out west at Kosciuszko National Park and also Tasmania they are so far away and we can't smell them but the evidence is in the sky and it has been rather hazy the last few days we are looking at 39 degrees tomorrow, the mullet here were flying across the water and jumping clean out of the ocean tonight and the only noise I could hear was when they slapped back into the ocean, try as hard as i might getting a good pic of them in the air is a goal they are so hard to get on film , but they are fun to watch

More bush fires,Hazard reduction apparently. The south coast is disappearing fast. The amount of development down the coast is disgusting. The I might head west to some far corner in WA
The land of FIRE & ICE
Weather systems typically move from west to east, and red clouds result when the sun shines on their undersides at either sunrise or sunset.[8][9] At these two times of day, the sun's light is passing at a very low angle through a great thickness of atmosphere, the result of which is the scattering out of most of the shorter wavelengths — the greens, blues, and violets — of the visible spectrum, and so sunlight is heavy at the red end of the spectrum. If the morning skies are red, it is because clear skies to the east permit the sun to light the undersides of moisture-bearing clouds coming in from the west. Conversely, in order to see red clouds in the evening, sunlight must have a clear path from the west in order to illuminate moisture-bearing clouds moving off to the east. There are many variations on this piece of lore, but they all carry the same message.
