Fire Damage

nobody@ipernity.com (Keith Burton) — Thu, 15 Sep 2022 06:04:52 +0000

I had an hour to spare yesterday morning while my wife was out, so I took a quick drive to Hayling Island where I came across a piece of land about 100m from the beach which had obviously been on fire recently. Luckily it was only a small patch and had not spread very far. It left behind some burnt branches which really stood out against the undamaged foliage, which I thought would make a good photo.

Best viewed large, on black. thanks for looking.

Saturday Self-Challenge – theme 22.02.20: "dramatic picture"

The winter here in Bern was much too warm until now. In there were only 4 frost days (days below 0°C/32°F) in January. The statistical average of the last 30 years is about 20 days!
Now, in the middle of February it was partly so warm that I already saw bees at work!
The picture above I took this week when I was on my first bike ride this year. Dramatic weather. Right before a heavy shower. Dramatic weather creates dramatic pictures! ;-)

I've finally escaped London! So, er, here's a photo of it. Bit of a photographic cliché this one, but hey.

None of Liverpool for you yet, but I've been scouting locations! ;)

For the Saturday Self-challenge: Process anything. I let the dramatic art filter on my camera do most of the work this week and then enhanced the drama on Lightroom. Looking out my back door at sunset.

A friend of mine has a large piece of property where she and here husband have planted countless daffodils and irises. I got to visit one year and she asked me to take some pictures of some that she had cut for floral displays. These two made a dramatic disply against black!

25/366: Mushroom Drama

How many times have you captured a subject that looked good at the time but when you looked at the picture later, you ended up passing it by because the background was too busy? Back in November 2013, I found just that situation!

This beautiful mushroom was sitting in a spot with many bushes, leaves and sticks, grass and other things around that took all the attention away from it. Even as I was taking the picture, I knew what I'd do to save this image... textures to the rescue!! By replacing the entire background, I was able to show off the mushroom the way I'd hoped!

The Sunday Challenge - Tree

I have always needed a reason to photograph this tree at night so I thought I would finally get around to it for TSC. This tree stands on the grounds of an industrial business park. There is always an amber spotlight on it even though the light is designed to be used for security. I took several normal shots and then I decided to try a couple of the art filters built into my camera. This is the Dramatic Tone setting. I like how it pulled the light off the clouds into the frame.

A summer vacation photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.

At first glance, this real photo postcard appears to show a typical summertime scene of vacationers enjoying the beach. A closer examination, however, reveals that the crowd's attention is focused on something that's happening on the left side of the image.

"The rescue" is the dramatic caption that's written across the rolling waves at the top of the photo, and, in fact, on the left-hand side there are some lifeguards who are leading a rescued swimmer away from the water (mouse over the image above to see a close-up of the lifeguards and swimmer). Many of the bystanders surrounding the group have concerned looks on their faces.

When I first purchased this photo postcard, I didn't notice the lightly written "rescue" caption and couldn't quite make out what was going on. It was only after I scanned, darkened, and enlarged the image that I was able to figure it out. Unfortunately, there's no indication of a date or location.

Into the sun

It’s very unusual for me to post a black and white photo, but the afternoon clouds two days ago made me think of taking a shot or two in black and white. I think the sun’s rays show up just a tiny bit better when not in colour.

Two days ago, on 10 July 2014, I checked the weather forecast before dashing down to the Frank Lake area, SE of the city. Pretty much a spur of the moment thing. The temperature had gone down a few degrees from the unbearably hot day before, and the sun was shining. On the Weather Network, I discovered that there was a weather Alert in effect, possibly huge hailstones and also the possibility of a tornado. Thinking I might get a chance to see some interesting clouds, I decided that I would still go.

My destination was Frank Lake and the surrounding area, where I bumped into friend, Greg Wagner, who is extremely knowledgeable about the area and its wildlife, and does an amazing job of recording all his sightings. I saw Eared Grebes with their young ones (quite big now), a few White-faced Ibis and Black-crowned Night Herons (no photos). Did manage to get a few shots of a Sora (thanks for telling me to watch out for them, Greg!). After I'd finished at the blind, Greg took me to various spots around the lake, pointing out places where he had seen interesting things, hoping that they might still be there for me to see. Thanks so much, Greg - I enjoyed this and really appreciated it!

One of these was a Western Kingbird - our more common Kingbird is the Eastern, so I was very happy to see a Western. We also passed by a male Great Horned Owl, who was perched on one of the huge pylons (posted yesterday). He and his family seem to be doing well. I used Picmonkey to "frost" the edges of the owl photo, to soften the harsh metal of the pylon. The photo (posted yesterday) was quickly taken from inside the car, using 48x zoom and then cropped. Of course, more natural surroundings would have been nicer, but this family of owls likes to use this pylon : )

The clouds were building up as the hours went by and it did rain just a little when I was driving home. Fortunately, no hail or tornado! The sky looked so dramatic in person, so I was a little disappointed with how my photos turned out. Good enough, though, to remind me of a most enjoyable few hours SE of the city.
