Was bored one rainy winter day. Futzed around with a laser point & camera on bulb. Multiple shots. Each one colored in Photoshop in different layers... -
Just an experiment light & digital filters... -

A number of years ago the Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh hosted a Dal Chihuly art glass exhibit - where his works were incorporated into their hothouse. A really interesting experience. Made you realize how organic his extraordinary pieces of art glass -
Thanks for the compliment Giangiorgio! I adore shooting in B&W. I try to 'see' in B&W. Those Paris shots, for example: some were shot with film/negative & others were digital & shot on a day when I decided to shoot only B&W. So on a day like thats I set my camera to 'Monochrome' mode & shoot with filters in front of the lens - yellow for nice architecture shots, red to make the sky in landscapes pop more, and so on. [i have used the Cokin filter system since the 90s - really nice & easy filter holder with slide in slots that fits quickly on different lenses.] That makes for minimal post-hoc adjustment - maybe just S-curve or perhaps brightness/contrast. I prefer to do most things at the time of shooting the image. I sometimes convert some color shots that I do not like to B&W - that can make them better, but I do that only infrequently. -

Hi Vincent, Yep. I edited the S-curve a bit on this one. This was an iPhone shot! One really cold late Fall morning I went outside to see some friends off - who had stayed a few nights with us. There was a really amazing hoar frost. I could not run inside & get my decent camera gear, but went for the iPhone shot instead. The cameras in those phones never cease to amaze me - they can be excellent for macro shots... -Aina -
Beautiful detail of the features on the wings. You are right about the Mediterranean light - makes the image really pop & lens perform well. I shot one of these butterflies in my garden one summer & it was a fairly overcast, darkish day. I have it in my photostrem, but the image does not have that beautiful lightness like yours. -

A tranquil fall early morning, the silence disturbed by my camera shutter & the guns of shooters during duck season... -
Same buck, same cheekiness, all year round... one of the usual suspects that are perpetually in the garden. -

J'adore le détail dans cette photo. Le regard du faucon est formidable! Vous êtes vraiment expert avec l'appareil photo!!! C'est incroyable que vous avez pris cette photo 'avec la main'... -Aina -
Quelle belle délicatesse ici... -Aina -
This is an incredibly harmonious image. I really like the color pallette here & the side lighting really makes the different surfaces/textures really pop. Delightful! - Aina -
My take on this photographic cliche... -
