Tienhovensch Kanaal II

#SilentSunday #Landscape #Photography

A serene and expansive view of a long, straight canal cutting through a lush, green landscape under a cloudy sky. On either side of the canal, vibrant green vegetation thrives, with tall grasses and various yellow wildflowers lining the banks.

The water in the canal acts as a perfect mirror, reflecting the brilliant blue of the sky and the fluffy white cumulus clouds scattered across it. The sun is positioned behind some of the clouds, creating a bright spot in the sky and a shimmering reflection on the water's surface. The reflection creates a sense of symmetry and depth in the image.

To confuse the unimaginative, this photo has been rotated 90 degrees.

A Magnífico Photography composition of the Cosmos superbly captured
NGC 1365 Spiral Galaxy

https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap171012.html

#NASA #space #Cosmos #Photography #Physics #Chemistry

The image features a detailed view of the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365, also known as the "Majestic Island Universe." The galaxy is prominently displayed in the center, showcasing its bright core and spiral arms, with a bar structure extending through the center. The image is a sharp color photograph, highlighting intense star-forming regions at the ends of the bar and along the spiral arms, as well as details of dust lanes cutting across the galaxy's bright core. The background is filled with numerous stars, emphasizing the vastness of space.

The text below the image provides additional information about NGC 1365, noting that it is located 60 million light-years away in the Fornax constellation and is a dominant member of the Fornax galaxy cluster. It mentions the supermassive black hole at the galaxy's core and the role of the prominent bar in the galaxy's evolution. The image credit and copyright are attributed to Dietmar Hager, Eric Benson, and Torsten Grossmann. The text also hints at a future image titled "under the galaxy."

"Fur"

#AlicePics #NSFW #Selfie #Photography

Alice poses, breast exposed, in a saturated pink fur coat. Their soft, pale skin has been desaturated to nearly black and white. The signature blue, pink, and white bead bracelets have been spared their color, as have their coral-pink high-cut panties. A tight spiked necklace and an industrial-looking chain wrap Alice's shadowed neckline, following the contours of their collarbone. The chain dangles down between firm breasts, terminating in a small key with a heart-shaped bow.

#Weserbergland #photography #landscape #wandern #NaturundKultur #Kloster

Willkommen im #Weserbergland, das seine Kultur zu einem erheblichen Teil seinen ehemaligen Klöstern verdankt, die über 800 Jahre in dieser Region eine entscheidende Rolle spielten. Das Weserbergland war und ist kein politisch geschlossenes Gebiet, sondern lag an der Peripherie verschiedener mittelalterlicher Machtbereiche. Heute liegt es an den Rändern Niedersachsens, Hessen und NRWs.

Wir schauen vom Bramwald aus auf die Weser und sehen am linken Bildrand das ehemalige Kloster Bursfelde, das im 11. Jahrhundert von den Grafen von Nordheim gestiftet wurde. Kaum zu glauben, aber wahr: Dieses kleine, fast unscheinbare Kloster wurde von der Mitte des 15 bis zur Mitte des 16 Jahrhunderts ein namhaftes Zentrum der Reform des Benediktinerordens.

And to finish off, the counterpart of my previous picture, this is a pink lotus flower, absolutely stunning shot, taken in the same botanical garden as the previous one.

Taken with my Sony DSC HX350 and edited in Lightroom.

I love these Art Nouveau (not Deco!) Paris Metro entrance arches. This is the Père LaChaise station, Lignes № 1–2 #Photography #Paris Shot in 2008 w/Canon Powershot SD100. Nice little camera.

Ray Lonsdale's Fiddlers Green, a memorial to fishermen lost at sea

To the fishermen lost in the cold North Sea,
and the ones who will be so,
I’ll be seeing you all on Fiddler’s Green,
be steady as you go.

For Fiddler’s Green is a place I’ve heard tell,
though no one really knows,
where the fishermen go if they don’t go to hell,
and no Arctic wind will blow.

#Photo #Photography #Sunday #PublicArt #Kunst #England #Newcastle

a rusty corten steel statue of a fisherman sat on a bollard looking out to sea. in the background is an iconic block of flats, but more about those in my next post.

Alien Landscape at Sunset

#AlicePics #Landscape #Nature #Sunset #Photography

An expanse of water and sand. The low tide has left sandy mudflats with rippling patterns and spiderwebs of little rivers receding into the water. The orange sunset reflects off the wet surfaces, making it look like an alien landscape, bathed in orange light.

Perspectives in Pinks & Periwinkles

A black and white closeup of Alice's hips, the only color in the image comes from Alice's wet, lavender panties, as they cling to their pale, creamy thighs, and the brilliant pink light cast by the wand nestled deep between them.

Yesterday, while hunting love-locks, my partner and I stopped to enjoy the view of downtown Seattle.

A beautiful view of downtown Seattle across the water. The Space Needle is the centerpiece, with dramatic white clouds and a vivid blue sky surrounding it.

I've been thinking a lot about all the projects I have started but never finished. Using one of my hacked digital cameras and cheap color filters, I've come very close to the Aerochrome look. I wanted to photograph parts of San Francisco with enough foliage to show the look. The Salesforce Park is perfect. #photography #AlternativeProcess #MastoArt

Walking path inside a park in the middle of the city. The path is surrounded by vegetation, but the colors are not right. The foliage is bright red instead of green, mimicking the look of the legendary film stock Kodak Aerochrome.

I always thought these were the best photos of the St Helens eruption that occurred 45 years ago today. Can you imagine being there and seeing that!!!

(Photos by John Christiansen from Mt. Adams when Mt. St. Helens erupted on May 18, 1980.)

#Volcano #Geology #StHelens #Eruption #Mountain #Photography

Two color landscape photos stitched together one on top of the other. Top photo shows a mountain climber in black with a red backpack and yellow socks standing on a field of snow watching a distant volcano beginning to erupt. The bottom photo, taken perhaps a minute later shows the entire volcano engulfed in ash as the cloud of ash spreads outward. The climber who was standing on the field of snow has sat down with their hand on their head in shock by the scene before them. Their long handled ice axe remains stuck in the snow next to them.

This heron was fishing for compliments with their statuesque pose in this picturesque pond today.

#AlicePics #Birds #Nature #Photography #Reflections #Water

A beautiful grey heron, stands knee-deep in its still reflection. Ferns lean in to caress its long feathers as they catch the light—soft blues and greys. The reflection below is nearly perfect copy, like the water’s trying to preserve this moment.

Silentsunday im Dorf (Dorfleben)

Blick über Dächer im Vordergrund hinüber zu einem malerischen Dorf auf einem Hügel mit einer Mischung aus historischen Gebäuden und bunten Häusern. Das Hauptobjekt ist eine steinerne Burg, die auf felsigen Klippen thront und die darunter liegende Siedlung überblickt. Der Himmel ist teilweise bewölkt und bietet ein warmes, goldenes Licht, das den rustikalen Charme der Architektur unterstreicht, während grüne Bäume die Landschaft durchziehen und zu der ruhigen Atmosphäre beitragen.

A Starry Bob (Iambrix stellifer) spotted at Windsor Nature Park, Singapore on 1 Jan 2025. It is less common than its cousin, the Chesnut Bob (Iambrix salsala). The pattern of white dots on its wings is the usual way to distinguish between the two.
