Magnolia Close Up Daily 10
Since January I try to take regular photos of the Magnolia tree in the garden. The coming days I will publish a daily photo of a close up. For some it will be boring and repetitive, for most (I hope) it will be fun.

Capturing Road Side Views: The Sun Also Rises – Colchester
Ending the year in the UK, a roadside view from the car over a foggy countryside. Hence the sharpness is not optimal.

Capturing Foggy Countryside: We Stand Alone – Stowmarket, Suffolk
England, Stowmarket – Little Stonham – December 2024
Ending the year in the UK, a roadside view from the car over a foggy Suffolk countryside. Hence the sharpness is not optimal. This is another one I used GrainLab to put in an analogue grain feeling. It softened the darks and gave the photo a more balanced view in the highlights. Snapseed tends to distort big surfaces in the sky, and this is a nice retouch effect to repair that.

Red and Gold
The iPhone had developed into a nice camera. It is not the same quality als a DSLR or system camera, but it is a lovely point and shooter with more and more options added. The zoom is quite nice, but the human side – holding it still – is a challenge.

Silence in Nature: Exploring Autumn’s Beauty
This week lens artists challenge #323 is ‘silence’. Autumn is a time where we move towards the end of the cycle, preparing for Winter. A time of letting go with the awareness that nature is preparing for Spring. The cycle of life at work, complexity in simplicity.

Embracing Imperfection: Life’s Beautiful Cycle (Look what the cat left behind)
Maybe the best example of perfect imperfection is the cycle of life we see every day around us. When the leaves fall in Autumn in fact nature is preparing for its next Spring. This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge #322 is ‘there is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in’. The quote is from a verse by Leonard Cohen about imperfection and beauty, redemption, healing and growth.
‘Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, in everything
That’s how the light gets in‘
