Taken on a section of the Great Wall of China between Jinshanling and Simatai. In the distance you can see the wall rising steeply up over the mountains at Simatai. This got accepted into the ADPA competition in 2007.

Background Information: / A wind turbine is a rotating machine which converts the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy. If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, such as a pump or grinding stones, the machine is usually called a windmill. If the mechanical energy is then converted to electricity, the machine is called a wind generator, wind turbine, wind power unit (WPU), wind energy converter (WEC),or aerogenerator. This article discusses electric power generation machinery. Windmill discusses machines used for grain-grinding, water pumping, etc. The article on wind power describes turbine placement, economics and public concerns. The wind energy section of that article describes the distribution of wind energy over time, and how that affects wind-turbine design. See environmental concerns with electricity generation for discussion of environmental problems with wind-energy production.

I have wanted to get a nice picture of it for about ten years now, and we actually went by it two days ago. I used my Canon Rebel XT to capture this shot. I was excited that we were going to get there at sundown. Funny thing is right after this shot, we ran into another one just like it in Indiana. I could not believe someone else put the exact same cross on their farm property, wonder if their related. This is Groom, Texas skyline, and put them on the map. The settings were shutter speed 1/30sec. F-stop F/5.0, ISO 400, Focal Length 140.0mm. This was an as is shot. Welcome to the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ Ministries and the marvelous story of what God is doing through this 19 story cross located on Interstate 40 at Groom, Texas. Construction of the / cross frame was done in two shops in Pampa, Texas by more than 100 welders and erected in July of 1995. Truly, all things are possible for those who believe. Ten million people pass by every year. One thousand stop each day. This 190 foot tall free standing Cross can be seen from twenty miles away. Thomas saith to him, “Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?” Jesus saith to him: “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me.”

I see a romantic rusty nail, taking his beloved length of string with her flowing dress, and dancing a passionate tango along the gnarly old fence line! They embrace and end with a kiss… Nikon D80 / ISO 200 / f/5 / 1/60 sec / 105 mm
These marks have been made on the hull of a boat by impacts while the boat was in the water. Or maybe it was the owners tools as the boat is in the process of being restored. It matters not to me. What matters is my excitement at finding an image with texture, shape and line. VIEW LARGER I have been working on making a series of abstract images from boats at a Maylands boatyard where old boats in dry dock are brought back to life.
A friend’s fabulous old ford on the hilltop at his farm. Love the contrast of the decaying truck and the luscious green growth of the grass…the old being reclaimed by the new.
Long exposures at night I love. Went to a local lookout recently to play around with the traffic flow. After 15 minutes and a few good results later, I was getting bored. Boredom lead to playing and this is the result…all in camera, no post processing on this at all. So how…Nikon D700 with fixed 105mm lens, 100 ISO, 30 second exposure @ f/18 and all on a tripod using manual focus. For the last 10 seconds of the shot, I rotated the focus ring back and forward from one extreme to the other slowly and with care to avoid any motion blur…this is what showed up. If you take a close look you can see the shape of the aperture blades in the light beams, at least I think that’s what it is anyway. I think I will call it the rock-a-bye-baby technique!
The standing stone behind the church at Spittal of Glenshee , looking along Glen Lochsie in the distance. Yes, a grad-magenta filter was involved – so shoot me ;)
My husband, youngest son (now, almost 33) and I decided we needed to breath some fresh air for a change so we went for a drive today up to Nora Lake…this is a manmade lake (the size of a large pond) just outside of Shingletown in North Eastern CA…..(just a little above 3,000 foot elevation)....the sky was actually blue! That was a real treat and we could take deep breaths…..it was wonderful…...and to top it off we had fresh Trout for dinner! I hope you enjoy this image…I shot this one just before we left….the later in the day, the better the color and reflections….this is 100% unedited…right out of the camera…..........enjoy! / / / _____ / All The Materials Contained May Not Be Reproduced, Copied, Edited, Published, Transmitted Or Uploaded In Any Way Without My Permission.

Random scratch marks on the side of the hull of an old boat. HDR technique used. I have been working on making a series of abstract images from boats at a local boatyard where old boats in dry dock are brought back to life.
Pink plastic beads…the only thing that makes them pretty for me is the shallow DOF!
this mask was being sold at the museum of the Ringling museum. It is of venetian artistry. . / This image has no editing, but does have cropping :) sony cybershot DSC H 7 The John Ringling Museum.. is located in Sarasota, Florida.
See ‘Blue’ for description. The other side of the hull was in the light and I was able to make this image I have been working on making a series of abstract images from boats at a local boatyard where old boats in dry dock are brought back to life.

This is an example of the shutter priority setting on a DSLR camera. This shot was taken in the full direct sunlight on Reno, Nevada in the summertime. Needless to say, it was almost a complete glare for my eyes when looking at it. If I had owned one at the time, I would have used a neutral density filter to “calm” the brightness of the entire shot and been done with it. But I wanted to not only capture the waterfall; I wanted to catch it with the water ‘melted’ into curtains instead of individual droplets. To get the effect, I slowed the shutter speed to 1/20 and set the bracketing (automatic changes the camera makes to slightly adjust the original settings) for the shutter speed changes to go lower with each shot. Setting the shutter speed this slow made the camera tell me there wasn’t an aperture setting small enough to limit the light the amount it needed to be limited to avoid massive flare on all of the water including the pool. LOL! To compensate, I changed the lightness offset to -5 (the lowest) and started shooting. The camera nailed it on the second shot, although I took many just to be sure.
