I discovered these thistles in a field of wheat while jogging. I returned two days later with my camera just to discover that the farmer was about to harvest this field. I asked if I could take some pictures first which he was totally okay with.
One day later this would not have been possible.
Enamored by the photography of the mid-nineteenth century with it's attitude toward such elements as scale, linear overlapping, and presence of space, I attempted such in this composition.
I am simply astonished at what those photographers created with their early photography cameras, lenses, and developing techniques.
Sure I took a dozen shots with the digital camera - that's the luxury of what they do... quite an abomination of artistic talent.
Only one shot worked - where the central characters are composed as a stretched diamond and suspended in a jumble of converging lines.
How the masters of the nineteenth century managed to compose their masterpieces with one shot using a view camera is beyond my comprehension.
We were out Kayaking with another couple in our tandem boats when others needed to pass. We had purposefully come to a tight inlet where seals could be seen sunbathing however, it was feeding time and none were present. Although minutes prior to this shot, one came to within 20 feet or our Kayak to have a peek at us, then bolted with a splash. All the basic colors were present, from red to green, from yellow to blue, and more. The entire spectrum delighted our eyes with a treasure trove of visual sensations.
"If you want to express yourself you must present something tangible. But after a while this has only the function of a historic document. Objects aren't very important any more. I want to get to the origin of matter, to the thought behind it." Joseph Beuys, 1969. Ignore the Exif data, this shot was done with the Helios 44M-7 wide-open.

I must admit this hasn’t been the first time to have experienced this unique bonding, when the bird accepted my presence and wouldn’t fly away. Call it “interspecies communication" if you wish, or telepathy - I don’t know (smile).
After taking a few good shots with my 400mm f5.6, I have decided to take the chance and switch lenses, for a shallower DOF. The cute owl didn't move a bit. I must admit having experienced a feeling of acceptance and trust. I gave the owl its space by not getting too close.
Shot taken at f2.8 with Canon 5dIII coupled with canon 70-200 f/2.8 II.
The aesthetics of black rocks and black sand in contrast with the sea is so gorgeous! It takes me back to the north coast of my island. The sea is too wild and seaspray so dense always, that wouldn't be really possible to live that close (not allowed by law) and the windows wouldn't look that nice.
But in SL we can dream! so anytime I can I rezz my houses by or in the sea. Scarlet Creative's Barcelona Beach cabin, is minimal, beautiful and stylish, so much glass, I thought it could pair very nicely with Fancy Decor's Larsen set for Fameshed this month. Keeping it simple, clean, modern, using monochromes to connect with the blacks and greys of the rocks and letting the sea and the dracaenas to finish the job ❤

The trees stand like sentinels, silent, skeletal, and unmoved. Beyond them, the mountains rise in shadow, cloaked in mist and memory. The sky is thick with cloud, but it’s not the weather that weighs heavy, it’s the presence. Light barely filters through, casting no warmth, only warning. This is not a trail. It’s a threshold. The kind of place where names are forgotten and footsteps echo longer than they should. The forest doesn’t speak. It listens. And the ridge, distant and dark, watches without blinking.
My latest photography is now available for purchase at crsimages.pixels.com/, featuring prints, framed art, and more from my curated collections.
A male Blackbuck (Antilope cervicapra) was marching in its natural habitat with a Royal attitude. The kingdom belongs to him and the steps are majestic looking against such lovely backdrop bokeh here. This unique composition is a visual pleasure to any Nature Lover around the World. Pics was taken from Tal Chhapar Sanctuary in Rajasthan, India.
The visual impression of Illinois’ agricultural landscapes is one of expansive openness, where the sky meets the earth in an unbroken line, punctuated only by the occasional farmhouse, silo, or grove of trees along waterways. Sometimes, the trees are part of a more extensive woodland interspersed with agricultural land. This combination, often called agroforestry, integrates trees and shrubs into crop and livestock systems that support a diverse range of plant and animal species.
Generally, it is a landscape dominated by monoculture crops, primarily corn and soybeans, stretching across the horizon in neat, orderly rows. The area is predominantly flat with gently rolling hills, and the soil is exceptionally rich, thanks to thousands of years of organic matter accumulation from deep-rooted prairie plants. This has made Illinois one of the most productive agricultural states in the United States.
An ominous view over Clear Lake yesterday morning as the weather forecast was predicting freezing rain, sleet mixed with snow for our area starting late last night!
Well guess what? The weather man must know what he is doing because that is just what we are experiencing here this morning!
Sigh . . . not good!
