We are lucky enough to live very close to the Monarch Sanctuary and is worth every second the climbing upthere (3000 mt above sea level). They are beautiful, delicate and powerful at the same time (they travel 6000 km every year, al the way from Canada to Mexico)

while on the other side at the bottom of the hill a free try-out yoga class was taking place... quite chaotic looking rather like bodies getting mutilated, not a fair sight at all in fact on a sundaymorning letting out the dog on an empty stomach... while most other people in the park were going there to take a closer look at that, these two children... brother and sister no doubt, looking even like a perfect twin... they had silently climbed the hill, then were running and frisking on it playfully and laughingly in the other direction, above it all and when coming almost to the edge they held still and ever so quietly stood there for a while, overlooking the park on the other side... they were so in awe with the view from upthere... she just touched his arm and held her hand there... next they were running again very lively and cheerfully, their hair blowing to all sides... like the wind was playing with them in fact.
I was shooting it all from a far, in between shooting some wild flowers, from another hillside... little bit too far for my zoom and so I kind of was obliged to process it into something arty in order to show it here, but also otherwise the kids would have been too recognizable without permission... they were so gorgeous, joyous and free! 'Be like kids and you shall see the kingdom of heaven', yeah!!
or maybe the boy just ran up the hill in rather a wild impulse and his little sister, much more careful and caring so much for him, allthough also understanding automaticly and sharing his joy for life, just ran after him kind of knowing somehow she 'ld better... only catched up with him at the edge where he stood still for a second and ever so carefully and quietly layed her hand on his arm saying: 'oh wow, look at that view', distracting him a bit more and making him hold still longer... before maybe he was gonna glide down there on the other side, getting all dirty and even might hurt himself, get their mama angry... maybe she waited just another second, but not any longer, to then just as intuitively take herself the initiative and say with enthusiasm: 'let 's go back ask mam nicely if next we 'll go there at the horses, this yoga-thing is just too boring' and started going back already, like this making him follow her, taken to this better idea... keeping him safe and saving the day out... anyway, it was the view from upthere first taking his breath away that probably made it go all smooth that sunday... so far... with a little help from God... and that from his twinsister whom God had given especially to him, 'cause a dreamy little wild boy like him sure could use the extra love and caring always there by his side!
A giant vortex pulls my eye up and then up some more. Bold color compliments the bold shapes. My shooting partner, @phototrails2015, and I spent quite a bit of time here. The angles just kept on giving. The circular pattern creates a strong feel of depth as spatial realtionship are easily identified. The diagonal cant balances the elements nicely. Good light and repetition add even more strength.

Ok, I think I'll drop Hasselblad and BW from my themes, stick with downtown and add pinhole, color, and autumn to the mix. See what we come up with. My pinhole cameras and I have been pretty productive of late. This particular image came on a city walk with a young friend I am helping with his senior dissertation. We combed the streets of downtown Portland with our cameras for a good three or four hours and I showed him the trick of always keeping an eye open for the high ground.
Steel bends creating wondertul curves, repetition and pathways that lead me to the heart of this photograph. Mirrored ceilings pick and choose among elements to reflect and, in doing so, create a brilliant canvas of shape and color and lines. As hues morph across the frame, warm joins cool and firey hot to add a kick of high energy. Staring through my viewfinder, I was lost in this world for awhile.

Words carry power, especially in repetition. Here they are encircled in light and a bit of duality. Presentation changes things - something easliy passed over can make one pause ... a read.

Reaching into the sky, leaning with a sensuous curve, creates a wondrous shape to balance out the nature that surrounds it. Reflective sky adds to the magic of the spot. Repetition adds strength. The mix of nature and structure augments interest within the frame. Spatial relationships are clear. Color contrast and beautiful light make everything cohesive.

I know they are faucets in the US but really they are taps.
I don't care how high up the wall you mount them, they are taps.

Playing with perspective always nets something interesting. Contrast adds to the drama - black against white. Anticipation of the next step denotes motion. Flying flags add to atmosphere. Lot's of good elements at play to complete the story.

Neighbors having some trees taken down. It's been scary, and loud. But we will now, all of us near them, have lots of light shining through.

This hand like wave seems to gesture upwards as it reaches out and crashes onto the harbour wall at Porthcawl.
