These are truly My Best Lightning Captures to date!
An epic night of sunset light and storm light @ twilight. Its almost every storm chasers dreams... or at least, in my own opinion, to get along side of a storm like this, as its firing away some incredible CC & CG every few seconds. What more could you ask for...
I was that Lucky Gut that evening. Just mother nature and I. Close to home after a few long storm chasing jaunts is just fine by me. She was producing and I was capturing every incredible second of this storm.. No Forking Bolt went away that evening without me getting a snap of its presence.. lol

The Leica Users Group explore the vast expanse of the Royal Naval College.
The Old Royal Naval College is the architectural centrepiece of Maritime Greenwich, a World Heritage Site in Greenwich, London, described by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) as being of "outstanding universal value" and reckoned to be the "finest and most dramatically sited architectural and landscape ensemble in the British Isles". The site is managed by the Greenwich Foundation for the Old Royal Naval College, set up in July 1998 as a registered charity to "look after these magnificent buildings and their grounds for the benefit of the nation". The grounds and some of its buildings are open to visitors. The buildings were originally constructed to serve as the Royal Hospital for Seamen at Greenwich, now generally known as Greenwich Hospital, which was designed by Christopher Wren, and built between 1696 and 1712. The hospital closed in 1869. Between 1873 and 1998 it was the Royal Naval College, Greenwich.
This was originally the site of the Palace of Placentia, more commonly known as Greenwich Palace, the birthplace of Tudor queens Mary I and Elizabeth I and reputedly the favourite palace of Henry VIII. The palace had fallen into disrepair during the English Civil War. With the exception of the incomplete John Webb building, the palace was finally demolished in 1694.
In 1873, four years after the hospital closed, the buildings were converted to a training establishment for the Royal Navy. The Royal Navy finally left the College in 1998 when the site passed into the hands of the Greenwich Foundation for the Old Royal Naval College.
Since 1998 the site has had new life breathed into it through a mix of new uses and activities and a revival of the historic old site under the management and control of the Greenwich Foundation. The buildings are Grade I listed. In 1999 some parts of Queen Mary and King William, and the whole of Queen Anne and the Dreadnought Building were leased for 150 years by the University of Greenwich. In 2000 Trinity College of Music leased the major part of King Charles. This created a unique new educational and cultural mix.
In 2002 the Foundation realised its aim of opening up the whole site to visitors. It opened the Painted Hall, the Chapel and the grounds and a Visitor Centre to the public daily, free of charge, with guided tours available. The Old Royal Naval College became open to students and visitors of all ages and nationalities accompanied often by music wafting from Trinity College. As Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote in 1863, "the people are sooner or later the legitimate inheritors of whatever beauty kings and queens create".
In 2005 the room where Nelson's coffin was held prior to his being laid-in-state was opened as the Nelson Room. The little side room contains a statue of Nelson replicating the one in Trafalgar Square, memorabilia, paintings and information. It can be seen on one of the guided tours that also include a visit to the undercrofts, the old skittle alley and crypt. A service is held in the chapel every Sunday at 11 am which is open to all. Public concerts are regularly held here and a wide variety of business and cultural events are held in the Painted Hall. The area is used by visitors, students, local people and film crews in a traffic-free environment that provides a variety of coffee shops, bars and restaurants, all incorporated within the old buildings, as part of a unique "ancient and modern" blend that support 21st century life in Greenwich.
The Old Royal Naval College and the "Maritime Greenwich" World Heritage site are becoming focal points for a wide range of business and community activities. Trinity College of Music provide a wide range or musicians and ensembles on a subsidised commercial basis to play at events throughout East London and beyond, part of their business and community “out-reach” policy encouraged and part-funded by the Higher Education Funding Council.
The site is regularly used for filming television programmes, television advertisements, and feature films. Productions have included Patriot Games, where an attack on a fictional royal family member, Lord Holmes, was filmed, as well as Shanghai Knights, and a 2006 television advertisement campaign for the British food and clothing retailer Marks & Spencer. Other films include Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Madness of King George, The Mummy Returns, The Avengers (1998) and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001).
More recent filming has included BBC television's spy-drama Spooks and the dramatisation of Little Dorrit, David Cronenberg's film Eastern Promises, the film adaptation of Philip Pullman's novel Northern Lights and The Wolf Man (2009). The grounds were used extensively during the filming of 2006's Amazing Grace, and 2011's Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Scenes were shot at the grounds for The King's Speech, where the site doubled for Buckingham Palace, and The Dark Knight Rises, where it doubled for a cafe in the film's final scenes. In April 2012 the site was used for the iconic barricade scenes in the film adaption of the musical Les Miserables. In October 2012 the college was used for filming the Thor: The Dark World. As of October 2013 the college is being used as a set for The Man from U.N.C.L.E.. Also Guy Richie's 2005 film Revolver filmed a scene there.

That line, is that of an old Chinese saying, "上有天堂, 下有苏杭" (Shang you tian tang, xia you su hang). Marco Polo, the first Westerner to visit Hangzhou, later wrote that it was the most magnificent and beautiful city in the world. And indeed, it is truly a beautiful place with a beautiful setting.
When I see a photo like this, a sense of calm comes over me. Remembering my visit to West Lake in Hangzhou though, I don't know if calm is the word I would use to describe it. It was, rather pleasant and peaceful to visit though. A number of (primarily Chinese) visitors at the lake that day. Just people wishing to enjoy some of the splendid greenery and water.
It's easy to get wrapped up in the moment, snapping photos and not enjoying the moment for what its worth. Nowadays, I find myself sometimes putting my camera down, and marveling at the scenery and nature for what it is. Something to be imprinted in my mind as a wonderful memory.

Paisaje Sur. Plan de Mejora del Paisaje Urbano en Usera y Villaverde
Artistas de vanguardia decoran las fachadas, muros y otras zonas con “graffitis” de diseño
Un experimento sociológico en Nueva York instaló dos coches en barrios muy diferentes de esta ciudad: el suburbial Bronx, y el bohemio y elegante Village. A ambos vehículos se les rompieron las ventanillas. El que se colocó en el Bronx, a las 24 horas había sido vandalizado y estaba destrozado. El del Village, lo mismo. “Cuando un espacio está degenerado, esa sensación se contagia, y se acelera la degradación”, concluye el concejal de Las Artes, Pedro Corral. Precisamente para evitar este efecto, se han elegido los distritos de Usera y Villaverde para la segunda experiencia de Mejora del Paisaje Urbano en la capital, un experimento que lleva el arte urbano más vanguardista a las zonas degradadas de los distritos periféricos. La idea es convertir lo que hasta ahora era un espacio abandonado –una tapia de un solar, una fachada, un muro medianero entre bloques...– en una referencia artística para los vecinos. Lo hacen contando con éstos, con artistas vinculados a los barrios y de renombre en el panorama del arte urbano. Con sus creaciones, dan una nueva vida a lugares que están abandonados, sin uso o que el tiempo ha deteriorado. Les dotan de una nueva personalidad, y en función del artista y de la inspiración del lugar, pueden llegar a transformar una plaza, un solar o una medianería sin aparente gracia en un rincón lleno de arte, y convertir las calles en auténticos museos al aire libre.
Este plan, desarrollado por la Dirección General de Patrimonio Cultural y Calidad del Paisaje Urbano del Ayuntamiento de Madrid, se enmarca en las líneas estratégicas encaminadas al fomento de la creatividad, la participación pública, la colaboración con los distritos y la difusión del paisaje urbano.
Paisaje Sur engloba un conjunto de actuaciones en Usera y Villaverde, tras el éxito del proyecto piloto en el distrito de Tetuán. Las acciones incluyen intervenciones sobre muros deteriorados, en plazas duras y la mejora y acondicionamiento de huertos urbanos. Participan artistas y colectivos, organizaciones ciudadanas, agentes culturales, económicos y sociales de los barrios, en coordinación con las Juntas Municipales de distrito. Los espacios y el tipo de intervenciones se han decidido tras analizar las necesidades de cada distrito así como los posibles ámbitos de actuación del proyecto. Además se ha contactado con el tejido asociativo y vecinal de los diferentes espacios a intervenir para involucrar a los vecinos en esta "puesta en valor" de sus barrios.
Entre las intervenciones, se encuentran murales realizados por creadores y colectivos de artistas radicados en el distrito. También se han acondicionado espacios o solares con huertos urbanos ya creados por los vecinos, con la intención de mejorar sus infraestructuras y dar apoyo a sus usuarios. Asimismo, se van a realizar acciones sobre plazas duras, mediante la creación de infraestructuras y espacios culturales portátiles demandados por los vecinos en plazas con poco uso para su gestión ciudadana. Se organizan, además, charlas con los vecinos para explicarles las acciones y se han nombrado coordinadores vecinales para que, como agentes sociales con conocimiento del contexto social y cultural, coordinen y difundan el proyecto dentro de cada uno de los barrios a través de visitas guiadas.
Estos proyectos se están llevando a cabo de la mano de Intermediae-Matadero Madrid, que han contado con Basurama, PEC, Todo por la Praxis, Zuloark, Las Ciento Volando, Jóvenes Creadores de Villaverde, Cruz Roja de Villaverde, Asociación Vecinal La Incolora de Villaverde, Servicio de Dinamización de Espacios Públicos de la Asociación La Rueca, Asociación de Vecinos Zofío de Usera, Sala Kubik Fabril y Espacio Oculto. Además han participado destacados artistas como LAGUNA, 3TTMAN, SUE, SPOCK y DOSJOTAS en el distrito de Usera; y LIQEN, ESCIF, SAM3, ARYZ y E1000 en el distrito de Villaverde.
Durante el año 2014, se han realizado doce de estas intervenciones en varias localizaciones diferentes
At an art exhibition I noticed an older gentleman who definitely seemed to be the life of the party. He constantly was surrounded by adoring and beautiful young women and seemed to be a fair replacement for Dos Equis.
Rajko Radovanovic was born in Yugoslavia behind the Iron Curtain of the Cold War. He studied art in Zagreb Croatia and Brighton UK where he attained his BA in fine art. He has shown his work in galleries and museums across Europe and the United States. Today, he resides in New Orleans Louisiana and has recently become a US citizen.
Rajko's work spans the range from video, performance, installation, photography, painting and sculpture. In Yugoslavia he was known for taking the symbols of State oppression, the hammer and sickle, and for incorporating them into provocative work. It's a process Rajko calls deconstruction. In the United States he does the same using police batons, guns and crosses.
After talking with Rajko a while, I chose to photograph him beside his work "Angry American Artist (a study towards greater anger)". The piece appeared from a distance to be an orthodox religious cross, but on closer examination it had police batons incorporated into it's framework. I took a couple of conventional shots, with my strobe to the left, but Rajko's hat and posing did not give me what I wanted. I moved my strobe on a stick to the right lower and fired it up into Rajko's eyes, generating a menacing shadow behind him. Yes. That was the shot I desired.
Once I had my 100 Strangers shot of Rajko, I invited him to the studio for a couple of beers and a studio shoot once the gallery closed for the night. Rajko happily accepted.
Later, at the studio Rajko, my wife and I visited and became fast friends. I shot a series of portraits of Rajko and showed him some of my own work. He encouraged me to have my thirty year old drawings and paintings framed and shown. I explained I didn't have time for that, that I was still producing at a furious pace and if somebody else was interested they could do it. "I will be dead soon," I said, "and I want to use my time to produce, not enshrine past work." We talked about how the world has changed since we were young. Rajko is from a country that no longer exists. I am from a country that is changing rapidly too. And the way that artists communicate, show their work, and reach their audience has totally changed in the last twenty years as well. The old paradigm is gone. A new era has arrived.
Thank you Rajko for being the 181st stranger in my 100 Strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the flickr group page.

-> Who does not ask who does not win.
-> If you want to use my photo, write me an email. And then we clarify the usage rights and whether I would like at all that you use my photo / my photos.
-> If I find photos in, for example, Youtube, I try to get in contact with you first, if this should be unsuccessful, then I must report you.
And Youtube could delete your Youtube channel. Do you want it?
-> I find it sad, if one does not ask before, whether one may use it.
And it is not enough to give my name. See points one and two.
-> It is nice, that you like my photo so much, but you used it in bad quality. That does not give me much.
So think about what you're doing. Did not injure my rights.
Just ask me. Something worse than a NO can not come.

-> Wenn ich Fotos in zum Beispiel in Youtube finde, versuche ich erst mit dir in Kontakt zu treten, sollte das erfolglos bleiben, dann muss ich dich melden.
Und Youtube könnte deinen Youtube-Channel löschen. Willst du das?

Und da reicht es auch nicht aus, wenn man meinen Namen angibt. Siehe Punkt eins und zwei.

Darum denke drüber nach, was du tust. Verletzte bitte nicht meine Rechte.
Frage mich einfach. Etwas schlimmeres als ein NEIN kann nicht kommen.

Finally a good setup for severe weather and were were on time for the event. Shortly after 4pm CDT were in the Moderate Risk area for that afternoon. Arapahoe Nebraska was our destination. Traveled a few miles south to get the best open position before the storms. Pointing the cameras due southwest, this is were they were to develop and become severe.
Towers were already forming and were were under the first cells of the day. These would become the tornadic cells just north of Alma Nebraska that late afternoon.
Always watching this process of the storm is interesting. How the clouds form before the storm into the storm... Plus they are always photographic eye candy!

took my minolta hi-matic g out for a test run and didn't realize that for the 1st half of the roll it wasn't set on automatic. This one is the best of the worst :-)
expired film
Taken at a custom bike show just at the end of the before times. Lots of really interesting bikes, but really hard to photograph due to the high level of visual noise. In the end I just have a bunch of detail shots of things that interested me technically about the bikes.
I've taken a break from posting as regularly as I was - whilst it's been good this last 18 months being able to raid the archive and get out stuff that I never published, I'm now at the point where I think I need more inspiration and new photos, otherwise the quality will take a nose dive. I'll still try to keep posting, but really I need to get out and shoot more.
Enjoying the user experience of this lens with the T/S functionality. Still getting used to it and loving the results. One thing to remind myself is not to go crazy on the T/S functionality, it can be overdone. Using this lens at 0/0 setting provides very good imagery, sharp! The 45mm focal length offers a great perspective.
View other shots taken with this lens here. Small but a growing collection.
Original images shot with an iPhone 5.
Composited and edited with an iPad using Photoshop Touch, StripeCam, ProCreate and Leonardo.
Some people have asked me how I create my images on the iPhone and iPad so I have created a website www.iphoneographycentral.com on which myself and many of the world's leading iphoneographers share our work flows via step-by-step tutorials. If you are interested in learning more about taking and editing photographs on your mobile phone using the many apps available, please visit www.iphoneographycentral.com.
PA_1452 [20 points]
The most beautiful summary in mosaic tiles of the year 2020. The year 2020 was a bad year for Invader. In Paris he has placed only 18 new space invaders. In total he placed 102 space invaders, most of which of course in Marseille. The third wave in this city includes 84 space invaders. Due to the lockdown, there have been no other waves.
In 2020 the number of FlashInvaders users grew by 35,692 to 153,672 and a total of nearly 2.5 million space invaders were flashed!
This one is located in the 11th arrondissement of Paris and was number 3960 in the world.

I can see where I changed my playlist algorithm,
and started using a whitelisted-subset ('changerrecent'),
at which point playlist management really takes off.
This was around March, 2006.
Up to that point, it was a 9000 song shuffle ('changer'), so the
graph is all thin slivers. The first large slivers emerge after we
started doing ChangerRecent, a smaller subset (1000 vs 9000).
Then, certain bands taper off and stop -- because we started doing
ChangerRecentToLearnOnly. As songs were learned, they were
removed from the playlist. Catchier bands taper off sooner, thus
you can see, for example, King Missile tapering off by August of
2007 -- way before completely un-catchy Ratos De Parao, which
took until November of 2007.
Our first completed CRTL (ChangerRecentToLearn) was 1000
songs, and took ~6 months (May->November) to complete.
Notice Ratos De Paroa at the bottom. This was the VERY LAST
BAND in our ToLearn playlist -- the least catchy -- possibly the worst
music in the playlist. Thus, at the very end, this was all that remained
for a good week until we learned the final songs. Makes it look more
important than it is. (August-October 2007.)
New music was put in once R.D.P. was learned -- but we kept
the ToLearn playlist in the 0-150 song range -- never going up
to 1000 like the first time. That is, we keep up with the new music
nowadays, and never get 1000 behind.
Thus, on the right of the graph, you now see larger, consolidated
blocks of fewer bands. This represents the transformation in how
we listen to music.
After that, there were about 10 concerts in 5 months, so the
decision of what new music to add was based on which bands
we were about to see in concert -- Ozzy Osbourne, Chemlab,
Ween, Gwar, They Might Be Giants, Ministry, etc.
As you can see at the very right of the graph, Ministry is taking
over our playlists, as we prepare for the March Ministry concert.
Ministry now represents about 95% of music listened to in the
past 2 weeks.
This was the best I could do without trespassing and was taken from the public road behind. Almost all of these vehicles are now withdrawn except for 22009 GX51PUJ, (which may be reinstated at Thanet for schools cover), while 17619 V619DJA and 16090 R190XNO have both departed last week, with 17628 W628RND now added to the Storage compound in their place since my last visits: www.flickr.com/photos/69558134@N05/28333496032/

And be sure to check by my other acount: www.flickr.com/photos_user.gne?path=&nsid=77145939%40..., to see what else I saw this week!!
Yes I'm back again.
However due to my main computer on which I edit my work being struck down with a big bad virus, this picture and all the others I am uploading, were Unedited but have now been replaced with Edited versions. So enjoy and Thanks for your patience and understanding.
I do still hate everything about this shit that is new Flickr and always will, but an inability to find another outlet for my work that is as easy for me to use as the Old BETTER Flickr was, has forced me back to Flickr, even though it goes against everything I believe in.
I don't generally have an opinion on my own work, I prefer to leave that to other people and so based on the positive responses to my work from the various friends I had made on Flickr prior to the changes I have decided to upload some more of my work as an experiment and to see what happens.
So make the most of me before they delete my acount: www.flickr.com/photos/69558134@N05/?details=1, to stop me complaining!!
