Hi guys and gals!

I'm super excited to let you all know that today, after 2 months of tweaking and testing, I've finally released my Presets package for Lightroom!

I invite you all to download and try it out, and I hope that it'll save you plenty of time during your post processing journey.

In this image I used the Shadow Dancer Lightroom Preset to create the colours that you see there. I couldn't think of a more suitable image to formally release with this one other than a nifty hot air balloon floating into the sky.

Anyway let us know how you go with the use of those presets and as always your valuable feedback is important to me.

Peace to you all, stay hip and stay awesome!

All photos used are my own.

Thank you for taking the time to visit, comment, fave or invite. I really appreciate them all.

Aluminium foil ball - Macro Mondays Single Use

I used to work with painting on glass, china, paper... I meant a creative job was always important to me.

In this new phase I feel the necessity of find some details to add to my photos. I'm discovering how amused is work with Photoshop, despite of doing only some things with it until now. So, sorry for the montages with questionable taste.

I used to be angry at my friend Doug for skipping rocks in Moraine Lake on an unreal day... I'm starting to change my mind on the subject haha. September 30th of last year remains one of my most memorable days for moments captured like this.

I used up all the plain flour making these clouds. this is taken in my favourite golden fields which are so nice and orange at this time of year. I love seeing how nature changes throughout the seasons

We used my car as a blind that morning and found some nice even shade light and waited for this fella to calm down. Although this was a distant shot, I really like the swag he showed in this unique pose.

Days That Used To Be_Neil Young

People say don't rock the boat, let things go their own way

Ideas that once seem so right, now have gotten hard to say

I wish that I could talk to you and you could talk to me

'Cause there very few of us left my friend

From the days that used to be

Seem like such a simple thing to follow one's own dream

But possessions and concession are not often what they seem

They drag you down and load you down in disguise of security

But we never had to make those deals

In the days that used to be

Talk to me, my long lost friend, tell me how you are

Are you happy with your circumstance, are you driving a new car

Does it get you where you want to go, with a seven year warranty

Or just another hundred thousand miles away

From the days that used to be

Songwriters: Neil Young

Using a flash or focus assist illuminator on these photo shoots is an absolute No No! Rest assured a few harsh words were spoken by someone at the time!

I used my own # 10 Sunny Evening Watercolour Texture here.

Woah, ah, mercy, mercy me

Ah, things ain't what they used to be (ain't what they used to be)

Where did all the blue skies go?

Poison is the wind that blows

From the north and south and east

Woah mercy, mercy me, yeah

Ah, things ain't what they used to be (ain't what they used to be)

Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas

Fish full of mercury

Oh Jesus, yeah, mercy, mercy me, ah

Ah, things ain't what they used to be (ain't what they used to be)

Radiation underground and in the sky

Animals and birds who live nearby are dying

Hey, mercy, mercy me, oh

Hey, things ain't what they used to be

What about this overcrowded land?

How much more abuse from man can she stand?

Oh, na, na, na

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Hey, ooh, woo

I used a dark filter on this one found at Adobe's website it's called Albion. Several different low key filters it's fun! Shot at our local Butterfly Pavilion! (I used my Helios)

19:52 Using artificial light

I think most of you know of my forays into the neighbors' yards to shoot their flowers. Well, today I wanted dandelion seedheads, so, with bucket in hand, I walked for several blocks, and picked off the seedheads off the dandelions from peoples' yards. I'm sure they would be happy about that, right?

Then you can imagine how long it took me to stuff them into six bottles. All for a shot :)

Shot in my lightbox.

Using one of my poses ''Natalia'' which is excusive in SENSE event and listening to one of Phil Collins songs I came up with this result.

A cool remix below.

Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight ('Panski & John Skyfield Remix)

used a 3 stops NiSi soft GND filter and stopped down a lot for the sunburst effect.

Thanks everyone for visiting my stream :-)

Lincoln County-Washington State

I used to live in the house on the right when I was very young. It was haunted... that or I was having a bad reaction to the Phenobarbital I was given for my seizures.

I always feel compelled to rescue on or two of these when the opportunity arises….Bettie than plastic perhaps, but still mad!

(The blue pillows are part of wedding preparations which were going on when we visited.)

The mosaics behind the altar is perhaps one of the most famous from late antiquity / early medieval there is - dating from the 5th century. It depicts Jesus in the middle in golden robes with the Torah in his hand. St Paul is to the left of him, and St Peter to the right. The twins Cosma and Damiano are standing behind them, one on each side (though it is impossible to tell who's who - they are depicted as identical twins). To the far right is St Theodore - and to the far left the founder of the church pope Felix IV, holding a model of the church. Felix is actually a reconstruction (but generally thought to be well done) since a later pope replaced him with a portrait of pope Gregory the Great(!). Felix was restored in the 17th century.

The church Santi Cosma e Damiano was founded in 527 by Theodore the Great when he and his daughter Amalasuntha donated two buildings to pope Felix IV - the buildings being the Temple of Romulus and the Temple of Peace, built by emperor Vespasian. These buildings are the foundation for this church. Today it is hard to see how it is possible - standing in the church you can, through a window, look down into the Romulus temple. But this is due to the in the early 17th century the floor in the church was raised with some 7 metres and a new entrance was made - and left the temple of Romulus back at (the old) ground level. The same renovation also added new side chapels and a new ceiling.

.. used on an after work city walk .. enjoy :)

A single remnant from a box of mini crackers provided the perfect item for the single use challenge.

For today's Macro Mondays theme of 'Single Use' HMM!!

"Hello, can you hear me?

I'm in California dreaming about who we used to be

When we were younger and free

I've forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet"

Music for the mood

By using ND Filters in the exposure for this particular capture, this enables us to create these Ethereal/Beautiful Images! Shot from the popular coastal town of Barmouth, West Wales, United Kingdom!

We used today to dive into the history of the Danish West Coast visiting the Tirpitz Museum in Blavand as well as the open air museum of Nymindegab. I can highly recommend both locations for people who love to learn more about the life of our ancestors in previous centuries. Nymindegab, Jylland, Denmark
