Similar to the other photo (which was taken just to the right of this one), but this time without the illumination of the moon (it was hiding behind the clouds).
As a result, stronger silhouette, and also more contrasty clouds/sky (and more visible stars!)
To the left is the Big Dipper, which points at Polaris (the North Star) at the top of the frame.
The colours are true and the photo is unedited -- the joy of long exposures, and a little light pollution in just the right places...!

Recently I had the privilege to meet this Dragon called Bracken and her parents. Bracken in a friendly manner both blinked and blew gentle whisps of smoke at me. The father was able to provide some fine accompanying rhythms to this fantastic Pride event.
This is a sun-dog, which I call sunrainbows (though technically it's not a rainbow). Anyway, I saw this on my way home from Montana. It blessed me, and I hope it blesses you, too.
Wie für Rallenvögel (Rallidae) typisch, handelt es sich auch bei der Teichralle um einen recht ruffreudigen Vogel, der über ein breites Repertoir an Lautäußerungen verfügt. Von einem perlenden Whisper Song, über ein Arsenal situationsabhängiger Warnrufe, bis hin zu einem aggressiven Fauchen.
Lautaufnahmen der Teichralle und viele weitere Vogelstimmen finden sich bei Xeno-canto: www.xeno-canto.org/species/Gallinula-chloropus

Great big flakes like white ashes
at nightfall descending
abruptly everywhere
and vanishing
in this hand like the host
on somebody's put-out tongue, she
turns the crucifix over
to me, still warm
from her touch two years later
and thank you,
I say all alone—
vast whisp-whisp of wingbeats
awakens me and I look up
at a minute-long string of black geese
following low past the moon the white
course of the snow-covered river and
by the way thank You for
keeping Your face hidden, I
can hardly bear the beauty of this world.
— Franz Wright
A memorable whisp of water at Willow Falls in Willow River State Park, Wisconsin.

Whisp is my grumpy little death spirit.
I just got him back from having his faceup and tattoo work done and I couldn't resist getting a few pics of him even though weather isn't cooperating to give me some decent light.
His amazing faceup and tattoo work was done by the talented Akiko Smith of Vitta Vera (you can find her web site here: www.samuraifiles.com/tsumi/samuraifilez/ningyo/store/inde... ).

Photographing smoke art is one of the most rewarding aspects of home photography. We've all seen the wispy strands that float and glide through the air, but it's not until these trails are frozen in time do we see the true beauty and elegance of their construction.
In many images it's possible to see a subject within the smoke.
The advantage of smoke art photography is that - compared to water droplets - the patterns take longer to form so it's easier to judge when to take the shot. It's when the scene is viewed on the screen that the true diversity and uniqueness of the patterns is realised.
This was processed in Photoshop to highlight the patterns that exist within the formations.
The smoke was created by burning an incense stick against a black background. The light was a flashgun behind and below at an angle of 45° upwards with black card between the flash unit and the subject so that the light hit the smoke, but not the camera lens. The result was processed in Photoshop.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the last set of smoke art to be produced using this method. With so many uploads, it's difficult to create original ideas. So now I will be concentrating on a different and more creative method which I plan to have ready within a few months.

Here she explodes after Whisp who has already been run to the very top of the oak tree. This wicked sow tore after her and literally ran right up to the top branch Whisp was holed up on, only relenting when it became obvious the branch would not hold their combined weight...
Got myself another $10 Fuji from a resale shop. Still looking for a camera I am not afraid to destroy when riding my e-bike. It's not the best camera I have ever had but it does somewhat well enough for the purpose. It's better than any cellphone I have ever owned, and maybe two really bad cameras I tried.

This photo was actually taken for the Underneath theme. I thought that people are forever underneath the sky (well for the most part) and that it would be an all encompassing concept. As it turns out I spotted the fancy sandscape under the water for that week and so I was left with this shot.
I shot three braketed images and ran the exposures through Photomatix. It brought a very moody atmosphere to the shot, and the slight movement of the clouds between the exposures added for a bit of dynamicism. It's an obviously processed shot, but I'm not going to try to justify the pros and cons of it. I like the image and I'm glad that I got to put it into the project!
You have something attached to your face!

Well what an eventful evening... where to begin?, This is the Church in Corley near to Coventry. Myself and allan made the trek to this location in the hope of some startrails. when we arrived there was still the odd whisp of cloud hanging over, we decided to have a quick LP session whilst we waited for it to clear.
After shooting, and still planning the final shot around 20 mins later we were interrupted by a rather odd chap, who gave us a quick interigation as to why we were there, a few awkward minutes later after exlaining ourselves he left. We continued for another few minutes then noticed he had driven past several times, then pulled in to the rear of the yard, this time a 2nd chap also got out the car. Decided not to hang about grabbed cameras and made a sharp exit, only to end up in a game of cat and mouse in the graveyard, we escaped and headed over to the carehome opposite to us, and raised the alarm with the staff, the 2 guys again spotted us and made yet another beeline towards the carehome.
well allan was over the fence like a kangaroo leaving myself to which ever fate was coming, Turns out the chap was genuinly just a concerned local, who had came back with the bloody church warden, all 4 of us realising what a bunch of prize prats we had all been quickly saw the funny side of the situation, however i decided to abandon shooting the location for the evening and headed off in search of a new location.

The sound of holding on
Almost a whisper
The sigh of broken hearts
A quiet cry
The rain upon your face
Brings gravity and grace
And softly you begin to breathe again
I don't have all the answers to your sad prayer
But if I could I'd give you Angels' wings
To go where hope is found
With strength to reach beyond
And carries like a song upon the wind
Please don't give up
Please don't you give up
Cos I believe
Yes I believe
I still believe in us
To go where hope is found
With strength to reach beyond
And carries like a song upon the wind
The sound of holding on
Almost a whisper
The sigh of broken hearts
A quiet cry
The rain upon your face
Brings gravity and grace
And softly you begin to breathe again
Lyrics by Yanni
Silhouetted against the dying light, these iron and stone crosses whisper the silent stories of lives once lived — guardians of forgotten names, standing still as time slips into shadow.
Siluettées contre la lumière mourante, ces croix de fer et de pierre murmurent les histoires silencieuses de vies autrefois vécues — gardiennes de noms oubliés, immobiles tandis que le temps glisse dans l’ombre.
As one gets closer to the coast, the ground begins to support vegetation again. Whisps of moist low cloud or fog can be seen coming over the hills to the right.
