The door of an old railway carriage on a small holding near Looe, Cornwall, UK being used to house turkeys. The property belonged to my wife’s parents and I was out in the yard chopping wood when the texture caught my eye…................actually it was a disturbance inside that got my attention, but that’s another story :-) Texture belongs to: / Unloved

Old dilapidated barn with rustic red doors. This old barn will be torn down sometime this month. Someone in the neighborhood complained that it was an “eye sore”.... so sad! Image was redone for me in HDR by Kimberly Palmer.

A field of sunflowers found near Woodland, IL. It rained the night before and the flowers were covered in raindrops and bees, and flies, and all types of flying critters.
This is my artwork entry for the ‘Freedom To Create Prize’. It is very complex in the multi-issue nature of the messages it is meant to portray. What may appear as separate issues are really a part of a larger single issue showing how the individual issues are inseparable from one another.The artwork addresses the following individual issues as a whole… / / 1.) Feeding the population of the Earth, and not just the hungry or starving. / / 2.) The great public misconception that biomass fuels, such as ethanol, are really a ‘green’ alternative technology, when in fact, they are not a viable and sustainable alternative energy source, as they create exponentially many more energy, environmental, and human rights issues than they resolve. / / 3.) The ongoing loss and abuse of the very few fertile soils that exist on Earth due to the accepted agricultural practices we continue to use in how we grow food. Please take the time to read the article that I have written that accompanies this artwork at the link shown below. It will give you a basic primer as to why these issues are inseparable. I believe that once you see the bigger picture emerge you will never see the smaller issues that it involves in the same light again. / / Food… Not Fuel by Art4Earth / http://www.redbubble.com/people/art4earth/writing/1681231-food-not-fuel / / All my own proceeds on the sale of this artwork are being donated to the United Nations Food & Agriculture Organization, as this is the only organization I am aware of that provides an agricultural assistance program combined with food relief programs to help feed the world’s hungry and starving. / / United Nations Food & Agriculture Organization / www.fao.org/ / / Oh !... Details about the creation of the artwork. / The backdrop was rendered in Terragen. The terrain file in Terragen was sculpted by myself by digitally hand-painting a greyscale heightfield map in Photoshop, and then importing the bitmap file version into Terragen. The multitude of other environmental files used in Terragen were also created myself. The gas pump was created from a photo I took myself. The starving child was created from a PD image from the web. The pump and child shadows were drawn in Photoshop. All of these separate components were than composited, painted, and re-touched in Photoshop. Thanks for the visit, and please read the associated article. Peace & Love, / / Art 4 EartH

Blue sky days are not always a common sight in Belgium. When the sun shines in the spring however, even these mundane fields look glorious.
A lady out watering the crops on the way back from Ha Long Bay to Hanoi. Was taken out the side of the bus window on a horribly bumpy road so is not as sharp as i would like but I’ll take what I can get. Unfortunately travelling in a group restricts the amount of stops a long the way :( Taken with a Canon 400D at 75mm, 1/2000 sec @ f 4, ISO 400 Cropped in Lightroom for a tighter non distracting composition
Male hands holding a small tree. Hands are dirty.
Summer breezes waft gently over growing barley near Lubbesthorpe, Leicestershire, UK, whilst an old Oak tree holds its place in the hedgerow beyond, watching hundreds of years of constant change. Sadly, this scene may soon be lost under concrete and brick as the city expands further to cater for our seemingly complex needs.
Some of the world’s most spectacular scenery can be found near the Li River town of Yangshou in southern China. Sheer limestone karst towers and grags rise between rice paddy fields and quaint villages. At the start of the wet season, mist lingers around the outcrops while brilliant green young rice carpets the valley floor. This photograph was taken in 1982, not long after the upheavals of Chairman Mao’s Cultural Revolution, when paddy fields became communal property. Nikon FM2 camera and 28mm nikkor lense, kodachrome slide film. The original slide was scanned at 3600 dpi and the dirt and mould removed as well as possible in photoshop with the image enlarged at 200%.
This is a shot I took after shooting One Night Under the Milky Way I brought the ISO down from 3200 to 100 of course I had to compensate by opening up the shutter for a longer period! That night, Monday July 20, 2009, I was out about 3 hours and I could see this bright object just above the horizon to my left and in what must have been about a 2 hour duration is had only traveled about 15 or 20 degrees in the sky. I’m not completely sure but I think it is the International Space Station and that night it had the Space Shuttle docked to it! Camera Model Canon EOS 50D / Firmware Firmware Version 1.0.2 / Shooting Date/Time 7/21/2009 12:29:44 AM / Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1462 / Av( Aperture Value ) 4.0 / ISO Speed 100 / Lens EF-S18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS / Focal Length 18.0mm “Star Trail” was shot at Flamber Head on Newfoundland’s East Coast Trail For more information please visit Brian’s Homepage

Sunflowers near Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
A king of his domain, this Hereford bull stands amidst the rich spring pastures of Gippsland. The play of light and passing showers provided me with these unique lighting conditions that I had long been waiting for to shoot these scenes. view this image large bubblesite / photography blog / portfolio ©T.Middleton2009 —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—— /
