Digging into the archives as I haven't really been able to get out recently, mainly due to revision and exams!
I have a habit of witnessing sunsets like this, where the sun turns into a small red circle on the horizon.

This was my first multiple exposure taken 'in anger'.
It's quite subtle and only discernable once examining the shapes of the mountains...the clouds give it away as well.
Thinking of entering it in the annual Landscape Photographer of the Year competition...cross fingers ;-)
The tiny Island of San Giulio in Lake Orta, Northern Italy.
The large building is the Benedectine monastery Mater Ecclesiae.
A Myth Of Persephone (that I pretty much made up)
I must say this really does look better if you View On Black

Long, Long ago, far in the eastern frontier there was a desert land called strife, which knew not rivers nor rain. The people who lived in this land struggled bitterly and could not prosper. One day there was great heaving of the earth and what little the people had in the way of shelter fell in ruin. It was known by the wise that the Gods were at war and Zeus and a great host had descended into the underworld to seek retribution against his brother Hades, for crimes against his house.
It was Zeus’s wish that Hades would give back some of his hoard of water, which he stole form the rivers in great quantity every year. In the course of this battle a great rent was opened deep in the earth so that springs appeared across the land. In particular, the dry and barren places received this cool bounty. No one benefited from this boon more than the people of Strife. However Thanatos, God of Mortality, bitter at the defeat of his dark nation, secretly slipped a poison into the water. It was subtle substance that gave all who consumed it developed an ache of greed and disquiet which manifested itself in violence and hate. But the people who lived in strife had no choice but to consume the water or they would surely die.
And so into this dilemma stepped Persephone, who being of both worlds, took pity upon the people of Strife. Every morning at dawn she would sneak up from the depths and poor the milk of her kindness into the icy stream issuing from the underworld spring. By this blessing many who lived in Strife were calmed and knew friendship and love for the first time.
I see this gift from Persephone as a metaphor for the gift of art and what it can give to our world if people would only open there hearts to its graces.
This is Persephone giving her milk of kindness in her abstract form. Sometimes she appears as a tree and sometimes as a beautiful maiden. Stay tuned.
I liked this shot because you can actually see this guy's red belly, which is usually much more subtle.
Did you feed us tales of deceit?
Conceal the tongues who need to speak
Subtle lies and a soiled coin
The truth is sold, the deal is done
But don't despair this day, will be their damnedest day

I whipped this up in about ten minutes, pencil and pen. Jazzed it up in about two minutes with GImp.
Subtle Sunrise with smoke haze and high cloud over Brisbane Water from Couche Park in Koolewong on the Central Coast, NSW, Australia.
Barely noticeable highlights of setting sun... this subtle effect may not be noticeable on poorly calibrated monitor...
The Juno Beach Pier at sunrise this morning. Juno Beach, Florida.
Techie Stuff: 30-second exposure. I used a magenta digital filter and generously saturdated the image to highlight some of the subtle colors that were naturally present.

Peace Valley Park

In comparison to the striking colors of the male Common Yellowthroat I love the 'subtle beauty' of the female.
Thank you for your comments and visit.
The grasses remember the weight of my body and an impression is left, itself an expression of genetic memory.
