These woods whisper so loudly, and grow with such a brute force unto me, that no matter what, all I can do is to retreat to contemplation… History and facts: / “The Convent of Capuchos of Sintra is one of the many examples of 16th century religious piety in Portugal and became known for the extreme simplicity of its construction. Built on a very small scale with cells and dormitory lined with cork and a chapel whose vault is formed by rock itself. / The Convent followed the principle of universal fraternity and brotherhood of the Franciscan monks. The inhabitants belonged to the Province of Arrábida (South of Lisbon), of the Order of Friars Minor Regular and Observant (Grey Friars). José Ramos

Something a little different from me here. A3 shot HDR of the old Convent, Penola Road Mt Gambier this afternoon with powerful stormy clouds in the background. When processing this the effects were quite different than my normal HDR’s but I liked the outcome even though it is almost comic book style. Thought I’d throw it up here for comment both good and bad to see what others think. Not something I’d like to do often but the different style interested me. Canon 400D – 18- 55 lens at 22 CIR polarising filter, processed in Photomatix.

Abbotsford Convent ~ the light inside was absolutely amazing!

Just 2 show that I still know how to hold a camera steady enough 2 actually frame a photo through the view finder. Conventional, only if I really desire 2 do so of course yet I do not usually do so. I tend to live for those happy accidents in my daily way of photographing. I like to describe this process as looking without looking, more of a kind of blind accidental photography, a very instinctual & gut process without rules on framing an image. Create your own rules & U then create your own particular style of course.

If there was a choice between using a regular escalator or climbing ten flights of those stairs, I would choose the stairs without any hesitation! It has to be a happy climb! The Palais des Congrès in Montreal, Quebec, is a genuine feast for the eyes. It’s a convention center with a design relying mostly on its fabulous coloured windows. The effect is absolutely delightful, casting gorgeous colours both inside and outside the building, like a giant kaleidoscope. Focal length 55mm / ISO-200 / Aperture f/9 / Shutter 1/250 sec.

Today Convent Garden in central London is an area of fashionable cafes, wine bars and high- end luxury goods shops but at one time it was the home of the wholesale fruit and vegetable trade serving the whole of London and very much a working enviroment. By the late sixties growing traffic conjestion, parking problems and narrow streets unsuitable for the increasing size of lorries made a move from this increasingly valuable land more or less inevitable and the whole shooting match was moved to a new site at Nine Elms on the other side of the Thames, once the venue of the Southern region’s largest steam locomotive shed. Today the trade is carried on in a huge modern complex, the vehicles are forty- ton juggernauts but the Cockey characters doing the wheeling and dealing are still very much the same probably the sons and grandsons of the people seen in my picture. This painting in oils on a 20”x30” board was commissioned by an exiled Londoner living in the West Country and based on contemporary photographs. A painting like this of your favourite vehicle, British or American, in oils on canvas or board would cost about £1000.
