And that's it! The end! It's hard to believe that my 365 days in photos has ended. Crazy huh?

It's been fun. I've learned a lot. I've made a lot of great photo-friends. And I can't WAIT for next year! Thankfully, I don't have to wait long. ;)

Please be sure to check out my blog tomorrow! Lots of very cool stuff coming!! :) Including... what's happening for 2011.

Crook Hill
upload photos
Image by Earthwatcher
Originally uploaded for the Guesswhere UK group.

This is a view of the twin summits of Crook Hill, near Ladybower in the Peak District. Although not of great elevation compared with the heights all around, Crook Hill's airy rocky summits offer a lovely viewpoint of the surrounding moors and gritstone edges.
The NW summit (nearest in this photo) at 382 m is slightly higher than the SE summit (374 m).

The summits are residual tors composed of Kinderscout Grit (Namurian) with a solifluction mantle of gritstone blocks all around.

The SW faces of both tors display the steepest slopes probably because material removed from the summit by freeze-thaw conditions has been steadily removed by successive phases of gelifluction and/or solifluction into the deep Ashop valley below. In contrast, on the NE slopes with an aspect facing away from most of the sun's warmth, the material has not been transported so far from its source and remains mostly piled up around the summit tors.

60 de ces vedettes rapides des USCG construites dans l'arsenal de Brooklyn ont été dépêchées des USA vers la Grande-Bretagne en vue du D-Day. Les n°1 à 60 leur ont été attribués. 30 unités ont été déployées dans le secteur Anglo-canadien et 30 autres dans le secteur US. Avant même que ne débute les opérations de débarquement, L'USCG 1 a repêché 28 hommes d'une barge en difficulté lors de la traversées de la Manche. Ces unités ont au total sauvé environ 400 hommes le 6 juin 1944. Il fallait pas mal de courage aux Coast Guards car les vedettes étaient surnommées les "Matchbox" ("boîtes d'allumettes") à cause de leur construction tout en bois et leurs deux moteurs fonctionnant à l'essence hautement inflammable (et non pas au gasoil)

Redwoods in blue hour fog
image post
Image by kern.justin
I've been selfish with my time.
I've posted less here than I've intended to thus far. I am deeply immersed in work and working far too many hours to keep daily or even bi-weekly posts coming. This is no complaint - busy hands are happy hands, and busy mine have been. That being said, I have also been jealously guarding a series of images of which I am particularly fond. You'll not see all of these today, or even this month. I find myself hoarding and guarding images for no particular reason but that I feel that they deserve to mature on my hard disk until either I've fulfilled my own selfish need to keep them hidden or until I know there is a surge of future coveted imagery behind, ready to wash these images onto the blog.
The forest floor.
When I was young, my father had a friend who lived on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan, nearby but not within the Saugatuck area. His backyard was a young forest that covered a gully formed by a creek. The creek eventually emptied into the lake and we often found its end by walking down to the white sand beach. The forest floor is still fresh in my mind. The banks of the creek were sandy, but the floor elsewhere was slippery and treacherous with wet-rotted and toadstool-covered deadfall after a rain, as soft as down with the fires of deciduous plumage in the fall and verdant with small flowers and clover in the summer. There was a tree swing near the water and I can still remember building a small fire to relax and enjoy the October chill with my family. I tugged at my father's sleeve and asked kindly enough until he let me head down the gully with his Nikon F3, his 28mm lens and a roll of slide film to try and record the birches and the forest floor on emulsion. I wanted the camera to see it, to feel it the way I did. I lost the rewind lever using the rope pull to regain the trail along a steep and frost-covered slope, spent a while searching for it and resigned myself to the trouble of having the poor fortune of losing a piece of the camera on my first trip out. Nearly twenty years later, on the road through Redwoods National Park, towards a point named Klamath we stopped the car and I couldn't help but make a photograph of a vast, woven carpet of clover - a tapestry of leaf and flower that put the best woolen works of the great near Eastern rug-makers to shame. I didn't lose the rewind lever this time (in fact this camera doesn't even have such a thing), but neither did I recapture that fungus-padded birch forest floor. Maybe our best memories are the ones without pictorial illustration.

I still feel that pull to make images that somehow connect with the way I see and feel spaces. I still feel the pull to make images of natural scenery or wild animals. I suspect that this desire is seen in some circles as shallow or unartistic. I know, however, that I am not alone and that the use of natural symbols is not merely derived of a meaningless aesthetic or the result of some kind of post-modern, post-industrial, nature-loving guilt trip. Photography has always held my interest because I want to be immersed in beautiful natural spaces. My connection with my own images and with others' photographs comes from the same germ as the thrill of witnessing a beautiful landscape or enjoying a few moments or hours of solitude on a trail. There are many natural symbols whose meanings, though lost to our modern lifestyles, still impede upon some subconscious and base level of ourselves - shouting their meaning through a gulf of time turned to forgetfulness. Our nature-loving may be like laughter - without it the world would hurt too much to bear.

I don't really have much to say about this photo - except that I'm really getting to the bottom of the barrel. Fortunately for my picture editing / posting addiction, I'm headed back to the World on Saturday. As a side note – I've edited this picture before only to delete it because I just wasn't happy with it at the time, which is something I do way more than is probably normal. Does anyone else have this problem? I don't know – this time it just looks better for some reason. For me – proof that an edit can really make or break a picture...

Quick Fact:
The soundtracks for all three Splash Mountains (Disneyland, Walt Disney World & Tokyo Disneyland) are unique. In Disneyland, the score uses an orchestra, playing whimsical arrangements similar to those found in cartoons and retaining many elements of their original Song of the South arrangements.

The mountains in Florida and Japan share an identical underscore. It is in a setting-appropriate country-western style, featuring instruments like banjos, fiddles and harmonicas. The vocals, however, are completely different between the two parks.

Invited to deliver talks at Rajasthan’s largest and most prestigious engineering college which is spread across 337 acres: the Engineering College of Bikaner (ECB) www.ecb.ac.in/.
ECB has around 6,000 students enrolled on its campus, out of which around 2,500 alone are in IT and Computer Science courses.
Delivered two talks on Linux and Free & Open Source Software (FOSS): ‘How to Avoid the Axe Effect’; and ‘How to Make a Dent in the Universe’. The talks were delivered at the ‘FOSS GN09 event’ which was cleverly dove-tailed with the college’s yearly techfest mega-event, called ‘Sakshama’. An ancient Sanskrit word, ‘Sakshama’ means ‘skilled; competent; adept’. The 2009 incarnation of the event, held from 28th to 31st October, was called ‘Sakshama GN09’, to highlight ‘Generation Next’. www.sakshama.org.

And what a Generation Next! They also sought my help and mentoring in launching their own on-campus Linux Users Group (LUG), www.lugb.in. Am quite impressed with their active mailing-lists and outreach activities. These guys and gals are rocking! Together with its founders, we launched LUG-Bikaner at the ‘Sakshama GN09’ event-night, on an outdoor stage in front of an audience of over 2,500.
ECB has around 1,200 computers on-campus, and with the personal laptops and desktops of students, totals at around 4,000 PCs. Till date, LUG-Bikaner has migrated over 500 computers to Linux, and still counting. Plus, they also reach out to other colleges and institutions within Rajasthan to spread the awareness of this ‘muft and mukt’ vision of computing. After all, who can understand freedom better than the royal state of Rajasthan in India?

This is another HDR experiment! My first with a person in it! This shot was taken a while back while I was in Maine exploring the Coast with my friends Chad and Whit. I got to know them through college and ended up living with Chad for a year before he and whit tied the knot and left us all on the West Coast for Med School in Boston. They are a rad couple and I loved the time I got to spend exploring the East Coast with them. I get to hit up Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and New York all in one week! It was awesome! I had over a 1,000 photos taken that week and I am sure I will end up posting and experimenting with more of those shots in the years to come when, like now, I am out of fresh stuff!

HDR was taken in Dynamic Photo HDR. I like HDR but find that I never really am able to hit it just right. Need to work and experiment more with it.


Day 72 - Scream for fun
fun with photos
Image by Dave77459
Here I am playing with serious over exposure. This one had my 430EX on full power, the grid aiming the beam at the back of my head. To further the over exposure, I cranked the ISO to 800. The flash was fired using my eBay remote. The shutter was tripped using my new eBay IR release.

If you squint, you can see that I am screaming at the camera, which was just fun. I think it looks kinda alien. Sometimes just having fun with the camera is enough.

This is my seventy second photo for 365 Days. The Strobist group is invaluable for off-camera flash ideas.

Féniens ou Fenians, secte politique et religieuse, formée en 1861, dans le but d'arracher l'Irlande à la domination anglaise. En 1866, les Féniens des États-Unis envahirent le Canada à Niagara et à St-Albans; leur chef, O'Neil, fut fait prisonnier et l'invasion repoussée sur toute la ligne par les troupes canadiennes (photo); ils firent une autre tentative en 1870, sans plus de succès.
