Prague is an exceptionally beautiful city. This shot was taken from Charles Bridge, towards Prague Castle. I was glad there was an overcast sky, as it makes this image more dramatic to me. Thanks for looking, hope you enjoyed it. Perhaps you would also like this one: / My art with 1000+ views

Taken at the ‘Super Secret Sunset Site’, this is a touch of one of the less spectacular Big Sur sunsets. The sun didn’t set on the true horizon; it set on a fog bank well offshore that was so thick it acted as solid as mountain. Obviously, fog isn’t flat so instead of getting a relatively level horizon, I got a weird blend of level and humpy, solid and semi-transparent. But the thrill was in the chase… This location is one of the most photographed sites in Big Sur, tho not as easily recognizable in this framing. The beach is pristine, the rock formations stunning and dramatic, and the sunsets… Well, for a few weeks of the year, the sun sets in a way that creates an extremely artistic vision that one MUST see to truly appreciate. The trick is to know when and how to find this place. It’s clearly unmarked. LOL! For it being as fantastic as it is and not to have even the hint of a sign telling you where it is has to be indicative of very protective residents and a tourist industry that doesn’t need this site’s exact location well known. And the season for seeing the visual miracle is short and rare on a foggy coastline. If you get it all to come together just once tho, you will know exactly what Henry Miller meant when he commented that this was what God intended for a coastline to be. About the shot – There were numerous photographer in this spot because they all knew what was possibly coming and not the sound of a casual tourist to be found. (My guide knew; I didn’t). The area closes at sunset so your window of opportunity is a bit slim to say the least. So getting set up for one of four events is the hard part and getting set up for ALL four possible events is a challenge for the serious photographers only. You need to be able to aim four ways in seconds, know the timing of the waves, know how to get your camera’s ISO adjusted to catch what you want four different ways, deal with sand so thick that the vital tripod will ruin your composition so subtly you won’t know it was lost, and juggle noise reduction (on the digital cameras). In other words, catching all four events is a task for a Master Photographer because luck won’t cut it. I gave up after about 30 minutes of flicking back and forth between shots, copying what the experts did who were standing next to me but hopelessly outgunned with gear and technique. I was missing the two shots I had a chance for and fouling up the timing on the third. The forth wasn’t gonna happen and the pros knew that but didn’t let on. The sunset was the only “easy” shot and it required ISO changes, shutter speed changes, and a great eye for colour. I knew how to do the first with the D80, I bracketed exposures for the second, and I had my guide for the third so I got the sunset and waves fairly well a number of times. The tide rushing in over the huge rocks and thru the tunnels and caves took timing I couldn’t figure out so I just shot a couple hundred shots and hoped for the best, using changes in shutter speed to capture the waves or blend them into cream. Unfortunately, the slower the shot, the brighter it gets so one must work with aperture quickly or get burned out shots between completely black ones as you over-adjust both ways since bracketing doesn’t give enough options. If you’re a professional photographer, this is your location. If you’re an amature wanting to try your hand at the really hard stuff, this is your location. If you love seeing God’s Glory exploding at you in three directions at once, enough to make you gasp from sensory overload, this is your location. If you’re a guy like me who wants it all, this location is where you will see what you’ve got to capture what the REAL MASTER laid out before you. Let it be a challenge to you.

Saw a great swath of poppies in the distance. But do you think I could find them. With dusk fast approching I at last found this small field. There was a gusty breeze though so no possibility of macros.

The radio crackles to life: Warrior Six this is Lima One Niner, radio check, over. Without looking up from his map, Lt. Johnson snarls at Cpl. Howard to turn that damn radio down. In the distance, Sgt. Hochberg positions his machine gun fire teams, to ensure the path beyond the cypress tress will be right in the kill zone. While smoking the last cigarette for the next few days, I gaze into the distance and take notice of the inherent beauty right in front of me. With daylight fading, each soldier nestles in for the night, light and noise discipline strictly enforced. We will lay in wait for the next two days to ambush a company sized element we expect to move through this area. Sadly, this beautiful spot will be touched by the horrors of warfare, lives will be lost, families touched for eternity.

Trametes versicolor: The Turkey Tail Featured in the Globes, Spheres and Curves Group Nov. 2009 Trametes versicolor, often called the “Turkey Tail,” has the dubious distinction of being the only member of the forest fungal fowl community not named for the full bird, but a feathery fraction. However, the Chicken of the Woods and the Hen of the Woods look nothing at all like chickens or hens, while the Turkey Tail does look (vaguely) like a turkey’s tail. Who started this clucking menagerie of mushroom monikers, anyway? Was Old MacDonald a mycologist? The Turkey Tail is one of the most common mushrooms in North American woods, found virtually anywhere there are dead hardwood logs and stumps to decompose—and, occasionally, on conifer wood too. Its cap colors are extremely variable, but tend to stay in the buff, brown, cinnamon, and reddish brown range. The mushrooms are strikingly “zonate” with sharply contrasting concentric zones of color, and the surface of the cap is finely fuzzy or velvety. Often the zones represent contrasts in texture as well as color, so that fuzzy zones alternate with smoother ones. —Michael Kuo, mushroomexpert.com Photographed in the Don Valley, Toronto / Nikon D40X with 18-135 mm lens
