Yak Mountain by solo75
I got an early start in the dark up the steep trail which was iced over higher up due to the subzero temperature. Some sections of the trail was also snow covered. Hiking poles really help maintain balance. One of my favorite areas is off trail to the base of Needle Peak; a rugged area of fractured rock and delicate moss. One of the few times to catch the soft light on Yak Peak, across the way, is during fall when the sun’s angle sidelights the face of the granite rock. / I heard ptarmigans vocalizing somewhere amongst the granite rocks and saw frozen bear prints in the snow; large and small probably a sow with a cub. I followed the prints up on a ridge and saw bear droppings punctuated with dozens of undigested berries. Without snow, I would have never known that an animal had passed this way. / Coquihalla Recreation Area north of Hope, BC / Oct 8, 2009 Nikon D50 6 MP / 11-16 mm Tokina at 16 mm / f22, 1/2 sec, -1 EV / WB on shade, iso 200 / Landscape Mode / Polarizing Filter

My wise Uncle told me”There are no free lunches”, and so I offer back the best I can find from my heart. Namaste. “I live my life in widening rings” written by Rainer Maria Rilke I live my life in widening rings / which spread across earth and sky. / I may not complete the last one, / but this is what I will try. I circle around God, the primordial tower, / and I circle ten thousand years long; / and I still don’t know if I’m a falcon, or storm, / or an unfinished song.

The Major Lift by rodeorose
FEATURED OCT 2009 UNIVERSAL INNOVATION / FEATURED OCT 2009 THE WORLD AS WE SEE IT, OR AS WE MISSED IT / FEATURED OCT 2009 EARTHKEEPERS / FEATURED OCT 2009 ALL COUNTRIES~WETLANDS, PONDS, LAKES & RIVERS Nikon D70s / Sigma 18-200mm lens / f/10 / exposure 1/250 sec / focal length 34mm / Photoshop editting to enhance contrast, no crop. / / Lyrics Leonard Cohen; / Performed on Youtube by by Jeff Buckley This shot was taken under challenging circumstances, rainy conditions, cold and snowing at sea level a half hour after this shot was taken. Hand-held camera on deck of a small ferry-boat, plus Mick was holding me steady on the boat as I shot. My first experience of snow, shot last year in New Zealand en route to Doubtful Sound. Doubtful Sound is the second largest of the 14 fiords in Fiordland National Park. This is an area naturally high in fresh water inflows (7.6 metres of rain falls annually). The area features generally steep terrain, much of it inaccessible on foot, that is heavily forested except for locations where surface rock exposures are extensive.Wildlife to be found in Doubtful Sound includes fur seals and penguins (Fiordland crested and blue), or even rare large whales (Southern Right, Humpback, Minke, Sperm and some Beaked Whales). The waters of Doubtful Sound are also home to an abundance of sea creatures, including many species of fish, starfish, sea anemones and corals. It is perhaps best known for its black coral trees which occur in unusually shallow water for what is normally a deep water species.Doubtful Sound is unusual in that it contains two distinct layers of water that scarcely mix. The top few meters is fresh water, fed from the high inflows from the surrounding mountains, and stained brown with tannins from the forest. Below this is a layer of cold, heavy, saline water from the sea. The dark tannins in the fresh water layer makes it difficult for light to penetrate. Thus, many deep-sea species will grow in the comparatively shallow depths of the Sound. (ref: Wik) Same shoot: /

Sunrise by Lewis Golbourn
Sunrise in Crete, the pre-dawn colours are really coming to life here with the sun at most a minute from breaking the horizon. The long exposure has softener the water breaking around and over the small patch of rocks in the foreground. This looks great printed out BIG! Canon Eos 5D, 17-40L at 40mm, ISO 50, 200 seconds at f19. Don’t remember the filtration, probably the 1.2 ND and a grad of some sort http://lewisgolbourn.redbubble.com/
