Under The Weather !

there is a tile factory behind and they dump some of the broken tiles here

Unbelievable reflection

stamp this out. it would add a great minimalism feel to the photo IMHO :)

Strong and Cloudy!!

MUST See LARGE

This was taken at the river. A few kms from here the river meets the sea. there were some ripples, so I tamed it using a slightly longer exposure .:o)

This is DRI from 3 RAW images. No Filters - h/w or s/w. The colors of the sky come froma wee bit of light from the setting sun hitting the dark clouds.

The clouds were moving real fast and the boat drifting abiout.

splendido scenario !

in un primo momento avevo pensato a parecchi secondi di apertura dell'otturatore..invece c'e' un grande effetto con " solo" 1/20 di sec.

altro centro !

Great how the sampan sits on a bed of ethereal mist. Attracts the eye immediately with the yellow (life jackets) and its blue on drab brown.

It also looks like its being pulled out to sea which adds to the surreal factor here. Lovely work
