Der Turning Torso („Drehender Rumpf“) ist ein vom spanischen Architekten Santiago Calatrava im Stil des Dekonstruktivismus erbautes Hochhaus in der schwedischen Stadt Malmö. Mit einer Höhe von 190 Metern und 54 Etagen ist das Gebäude der höchste Wolkenkratzer Skandinaviens und das dritthöchste Wohngebäude Europas. Es wurde am 27. August 2005 eingeweiht. Das Gebäude gilt seither neben der Öresundbrücke als das neue Wahrzeichen von Malmö.
Der Turning Torso steht in Västra Hamnen, dem westlichen Hafengebiet von Malmö, in unmittelbarer Nähe des Öresunds.

Feral pigeon taken in Bushy Park, UK. Feral pigeons are descended from rock doves and can have similar plumage - various shades of grey with iridescent purple and green on their necks, though there are also many mixes of black, browns, white and piebald. They are considered a pest in most cities in the world, which shows just how successful they are.

The replica Spanish Galleon, Andalucía, turns in front of London City tower blocks to prepare to go back under Tower Bridge. It is moored at St Katherine's Dock until the 6th October and open to visitors. The ship is currently on a European tour including various points in the UK.

Sporting and meditative. Everyone wins.
The lighting, stillness, evening sounds and warmth lend to a wonderful time outside, on the water.

I've always wanted to drive the Natchez Trace, and was finally able to do so. Just north of Jackson, Mississippi this lone bald cypress in the water caught my eye. If you ever get a chance to drive the Trace, it's a two lane road of gorgeousness, actually through a national park, with a 50 mph speed limit. There are miles and miles of destruction, too, where a tornado tore through and left the forest stripped and haunting. And, you might also see the occasional deer. Make sure you have your favorite music available, sit back, and let the beauty feed your soul.

The new Palazzo della Ragione for Lombardy is still being constructed but promises to be an absolutely superb complex that includes Milan's tallest building and an amazing roof connecting the structures.
Thanks again to elen@c for giving me the directions I needed and to maryLou for the great title suggestion!

Just as I was about to pack up and leave this location yesterday, I turned around and saw that the waves were rushing around and spilling over these rocks, creating a really interesting composition that I had disregarded earlier. Sometimes a great shot can present itself to you when you aren't looking for one. I love moments like these and it tends to sum up landscape and seascape photography for me. Things are always changing and you just need to be ready. Taken at Tronach Head near Portknockie in Morayshire, Scotland.
This was the morning last August when I went for an early drive, but the fog turned me back although it doesn't look too heavy in this photo. This scene was beside the parking lot where I turned around.

One of the few birch leaves that still has a good amount of green. They really are beautiful and wondrous. They are actually act as lungs for the trees in the summer and let go in the winter after doing their important job of collecting light.
A migratory turnstone spends the winter on a tropical beach exploring hermatypic calcareous fragments for tasty invertebrates that may be sheltering beneath. The turnstone gets its common name from its foraging behavior of using it bill to turn stones and probe the sand for food. This one fattens up for the impending spring departure to Alaska, a journey of 3,000+ non-stop miles over the north Pacific. Arenaria interpres, breeding plumage.
The berries are starting to turn red, as autumn approaches.
I'm still checking out the differences with the F/F K-1. Here I wanted to see what the depth of field and noise is like at slightly higher ISO.
Depth of field is nice, and there is certainly less noise than the crop sensor cameras?
The colours straight out of camera are pleasant as well.

Took this last year in NZ at Lake Wanaka, fairly famous and much photographed tree.
Wanted to give this a faintly japanese look. Hope it came off.
The birds sat in this tree overnight and took off not long after this shot to catch grubs and food i guess :-)
Thanks for looking.
