see also my blog: pienw.blogspot.nl/2018/03/infinity-zoro-feigl.html
I took my camera with me this evening as it is been 2 days since I had captured some shots. The trees around the city squares are decorated with lights for the upcoming Christmas season. More than the shot of tree with lights I like Bokeh.So this is what I do.
1)Put Manual focus on
2)Zoom the lens to Max
3) Make the lens fine zoom off focus
4) I see the beautiful world of light balls overlapping each other against the dark sky
5)Bingo!!

Circle of Light
standing just outside
the circle of light
avoiding the pool cues
watching the game
waiting for you
hanging in the doorway
like smoke
like mistletoe
this is where I'll be
whenever you come or go
I don't have no grand plan
for you and me
just nothing is impossible
nothing is unlikely
I'm just riding the tide
nothing more
and it's bound to take me out some
before it brings me back to shore
just outside the circle of light
is where you've been living
your whole life
you've got to jump into the center
and launch your attack
and then you've got to crawl back
in the corners
where it's really black
Ani Difranco
In the darkness there`s a circle of light. With bending and twisted branches in which the light comes through.
What wonderment it is to know whats on the other side of that light.
Is it "Destiny,God"?
How glorious it will be.

Castlerigg Stone Circle (alt. Keswick Carles, Carles, Carsles or Castle-rig) near Keswick in England is one of the most visually impressive prehistoric monuments in Britain and is the most visited stone circle in Cumbria. Every year, thousands of people make the short journey from Keswick to the plateau of Castlerigg Fell and to Chestnut Hill, on which the monument stands. This plateau forms the raised centre of a natural amphitheatre created by the surrounding fells and from within the circle it is possible to see some of the highest peaks in Cumbria: Helvellyn, Skiddaw, Grasmoor and Blencathra.
The stone circle at Castlerigg (alt. Keswick Carles, Carles, Carsles or Castle-rig) is situated near Keswick in Cumbria, North West England. One of around 1,300 stone circles in the British Isles and Brittany, it was constructed as a part of a megalithic tradition that lasted from 3,300 to 900 BCE, during the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Ages.
Various archaeologists have commented positively on the beauty and romance of the Castlerigg ring and its natural environment. In his study of the stone circles of Cumbria, archaeologist John Waterhouse commented that the site was "one of the most visually-impressive prehistoric monuments in Britain."

The two nesting Bald Eagles seem to spend more time circling the nest this year. Perhaps 'patrolling', due to the presence of a nesting pair of Ospreys not far away. Or perhaps they are just enjoying the arrival of warm sunny days. This presented some good opportunities for photographing, even though the access road to the nest area itself has been cut, and the nest is now on an island, accessible only by boat.
There are not 'clear' lines available to the nest, so Eagle on nest photos are at best blocked by tree branches. Some decent ones to come, though.

Circles
The guitars rumble on and fade-out, but not in reality -
these opaque legacies found in dreams hospitality
do they matter at all?
yes, surely this plethora shall recall
illusionary magic at fate's ornate door
letting me know right now to implore
these insightful tribunes to wander through
the sincipital fabric, with silken offerings to pursue
such eurythmy found within perfects the outer
vision of stillness, silence no longer the doubter
indeed, it's the teacher of light through darkness
of a hope travelling through demoralising dankness
overriding seemingly forever-flowing tribulations
an obviation of sin upon the landscape of aspirations
guided by noctilucent hearts encircling the legacy
driven onwards yet, in avoidance of society's profligacy
muster the strength from somewhere we must
herald the spring morning in hope as much as trust
retread the craquelure path from memory the picture painted
flow with emotion the footsteps upon a canvas reacquainted
picture play in light and shade of a mind at freewill
with ambience-wreathed adrenaline tinctures to fulfil
the ultimate in cyclic ambition synthesising one's nature
a wake-up call that's gentle on the ear and eye of proffered stature

Duddo Stone Circle
One from our weekend trip over to Nothumberland and the five stones of Duddo Stone Circle.
I wanted to catch a bit of movement in the grasses against the stones. I went with the portrait form to try and work in both the grasses but also the great clouds above the stones.

Oodena Celebration Circle is a place of harmony with the solar system, wind, earth and water. Designed as a bowl, excavated to the 3,000 year horizon, it is encircled by limestone monoliths that support sighting armatures designed for naked-eye astronomy. Oodena is geometrically aligned to the sunrise and sunset of the fall and spring equinox, summer and winter solstices as well as true North.
Natural shallow amphitheatre known as the Oodena Celebration Circle. It pays homage to the 60,000 years of aboriginal people in the area. oodena, Cree for "the centre of the city," features ethereal sculptures, a sundial, interpretive signage and a ceremonial fire pit, making it a desirable venue for Aboriginal and cultural celebrations or a place to simply sit and marvel at its beauty.
