Flowers in the summer
Saltburn Pier, North East England. Off to enjoy the fishing in a July sunset ….
No prizes for guessing where in North East England this one was taken… Fujichrome film, naturally.
Another painting in oils of an idealised England.
The evening comes, the fields are still. / The tinkle of the thirsty rill, / Unheard all day, ascends again; / Deserted is the half-mown plain, / Silent the swaths! the ringing wain, / The mower’s cry, the dog’s alarms, / All housed within the sleeping farms! / The business of the day is done, / The last-left haymaker is gone. / And from the thyme upon the height, / And from the elder-blossom white / And pale dog-roses in the hedge, / And from the mint-plant in the sedge, / In puffs of balm the night-air blows / The perfume which the day forgoes. / And on the pure horizon far, / See, pulsing with the first-born star, / The liquid sky above the hill! / The evening comes, the fields are still. Mathew Arnold

Location: / Barham, Kent, England Map: / Google Maps Date and Time: / 17 June 2008, 7.44 p.m. Camera details: / ISO 200 : f/22 : 1/5 second : 18mm : Nikon D40 : Nikon 18-55mm lens Shot narrative: / After passing these red fields a couple of times whilst working I knew I had to come back with my camera on a perfectly lit summer’s evening.
The Aos Sidhe (pronounced “ess shee”), are a powerful, supernatural race comparable to the fairies or elves of other traditions. / They live in an invisible world that coexists with the world of humans. / The Gaelic Otherworld is seen as being closer at the times of dusk and dawn, therefore this is seen as a time special to the Aos Sidhe, as are some of the festivals such as Samhain and Midsummer. The Aos Sidhe are generally described as stunningly beautiful, though they can also be terrible and hideous. I cursed myself for walking too deep into the forest and missing seeing the sunset from the view point high on the hillside like i intended, but the evening rays brought colour to the forest like I wouldnt have imagined. / The forest is very much still in green, but the backlighting from the sunset has given such warmth to the leaves. As it was so late in the day, this is a 1 second exposure. other photos from the forests around my home / / Loki’s Forest
Taken on the back road from Burton Agnes to Rudston, East Yorkshire. / Nikon D40.
Taken a few miles east of Leicester, near Allexton. Its that time in the UK, just before the wheat gets harvested – heavy heads beginning to nod gently under the weight of the grain, and the weather unable to decide whether it is summer or not, threatening to flatten the crop, just it is ready. Leicestershire is full of distant horizons like this, and the Barley is all but in now, much of the ground already having been put under the plough in readiness for the next crop.

Through my cyber travels i have come across many photographers work that has been stolen and used without their knowledge / And just recently i have found a site that tracks back photos and shows where they are being used on the net / http://tineye.com/ / you simply enter the image address (URL) or choose an image from your HD and the site looks for it in their archives / it even works for images that have been cropped after being stolen or partially photoshopped this is a good example / http://tineye.com/search/0ac89241ed4c8ccd104094f6412ded2e0acfc2d7 / The original is the profile pic of someone who friend requested me on Facebook as something seemed odd/funny about it I put the image through Tineye.com / and you can see the results Another image site which you might like (if you use flickr) is / http://clipyourphotos.com/FP / they serch through the Flickr Front page history for your photos that might have been featured there that you missed any way I hope these are useful for people Cheers Richard
