Eilean Donan Castle one of the Iconic Scottish Castles was just a magic place to visit and photograph. I spent close to 9 hours taking in the surrounds, the atmosphere and the serenity and of course the odd photo or two. Here is one of my favourites, I really like the balance of light and the reflections. This was the 3rd last photo I took during this 9 hour period, and goes to show that patience can pay off. All money raised with the sale of my works until November goes towards the Steven T. Hill Stroke Foundation.

This weekend I did something very very silly…. / I took my new camera on a jet ski in a plastic container (i.e not waterproof housing) and got some snaps of Port Phillip Bay. We only nearly fell of the jet ski, hmmm…. repeatedly. I hope it was worth it! Thanks to my Jetski driver and all round relaxing company James
Another view from Paradise Bay. My first submission to RB in a while. I apologize for not replying/commenting on peoples work in the past few weeks. A lot of new stuff is happening in my life right now. Nothing bad I assure you. Just good things :) Anyways, thanks for looking!
This secluded tarn, is tucked away in the heart of the Cumbrian mountains. A remote and magical place, with a wild yet tranquil, atmosphere
People enjoying themselves on Fire Island, a barrier beach on the south shore of NY’s Long Island. Digitally repixelated photograph in the manner of Impressionism. Click once on image to enlarge. / / / / /
The little jetty, trees and shoreline, just below the Charlemont homestead are all mirrored in the waters of Thompsons Creek, in the stillness of the morning, just after dawn.
Painted from an 1880’s photo, of the fishing port of Whitby on the North East coast of England. Here, laid up, is the collier brig, ‘Opal’. The ruins of the priory, immortalised by Bram Stoker’s Dracula, can be seen on the hill. My first pen and watercolour work. Watercolour washes over a pencil drawing, then finished in ink. Hannemuhle, 200lb paper 7”x 8”.
The North Sea at Whitby. The Herring boats at misty dawn, / To get the details of the boats correct, I’ve used a Victorian photo as the subject. I liked the very hard pen ink lines of the foreground, contrasting with the soft, misty, wet-in-wet background. 90 lb watercolour, medium rough paper. / 12”x8”
Ya, thought the title pretty much summed it up! Captured a couple night ago as the sun was sinking low out at Reunion Lake on the eastern plains of Colorado. The colors were just stunning, I was pretty awe struck, it yielded quite a few really nice shots! Let me know what ya think! / —-John
Taken at Craigavon lakes in Co Armagh Ireland
A Conversation With the Clouds Captured at an elevation of 11,990 ft (3,655 m), standing atop Loveland Pass is like being able to touch heaven and the clouds. When I captured this, the slight hint of the scent of snow was in the air, and conditions up here can change literally by the second. It is right along the Continental Divide, and the views from up here are simply paradise! Processed in HDR and captured on my Minolta 5D using a Minolta 18-200 DT Lens and a Hoya Polarizer http://www.redbubble.com/products/configure/5778657
A Morning Stroll At the Lake Every now and then we almost miss a shot, and luckily this time I happened to turn around as I was walking back to my car from shooting the sunrise and had this scene greet me. Captured at Cherry Creek State Park outside of Denver, Colorado, the light seemed to almost dance among the trees. Processed in HDR
My watercolour painting from a 1906 photo of the Mauretania. Luxury liner (the fastest in the world until 1929). She’s being towed by steam tugs, out of the mouth of the river Tyne, and into the North Sea. Watercolour and gouache, 12” 8” / Poundworld 90lb watecolour paper /
Captured 12/13/2008 on a very frigid morning at Cherry Creek State Park, here in Colorado, I froze my damn keester off because I was dense and forgot to bring along my damn jacket! It was an incredible sunrise folks, one which I won’t forget, the colors changed and developed by the minute, going from the cool blues to the warm pinks, reds, and oranges…and I was able to get something in the shots which I had never had been able to before, the lake actually shimmering! In some of the other shots in days to come, you can really see this, and you kind of can here in the bottom left side a tad, an odd occurrence, and one I finally managed to snag! Long exposure, using my Singh-Ray CPL and Marumi ND4, on my Minolta 18-70 DT Lens, I hope ya all like it, let me know what ya think! / —-John !
Unfortunately I have had to re-up this one and delete my previous one (annoying as I have had more comments on this picture than any other) as the horizon was very slightly out, so here we go again. Boats at Lake Windermere in the lake district, Cumbria, with a moody HDR enhanced sky. / Handheld / Raw / 3 exposures +2, 0, -2 Canon EOS 30D / F11 / ISO 400 / 35mm equivalent – 17mm / 1/125s
A Fiery Dawn A Late Autumn Sunrise captured at Lake Estes in Estes Park, Colorado. It was to die for, to say the least….just the distant sound of the Elk bugling is about all you heard. I hope ya all like it! / —-John Make: KONICA MINOLTA / Model: MAXXUM 5D / Shutter Speed: 1/40 second / F Number: F/4.5 / Focal Length: 24 mm / ISO Speed: 200 More can always been seen on my website at jdebordphoto.com
Glen coe, Highlands, Scotland. / / Step in the Same Stream Twice Silence / finished saying what had to be said / Compliance / Read into the saying what had to be read Downward / is it now gone? Perhaps cheap at the price / Coward / No more to say, no more device. Saddened / beyond dreams, beyond avarice / Deadened / taken what seemed in this a true risk Dreamed / all was for nothing and nothing was gained / Seemed / an answer once was for all this but pain Loved / Once was or twice was it all is the same / Rubbed / Out the true feeling tears in the rain Dissolve / sinking and feeling in one’s own advice / Resolve / You cannot step in the same stream twice.
