Iseo Lake

Lake Iseo or Lago d’Iseo or Sebino is the fourth largest lake in Lombardy, Italy, fed by the Oglio river.
It is in the north of the country in the Val Camonica area, near the cities of Brescia and Bergamo. The lake is almost equally divided between the Provinces of Bergamo and Brescia. This is a heavily industrialised part of the world, but the area remains one of outstanding natural beauty. The road north to Switzerland used to run along the side of the lake, and stories about entire families being swallowed up by the murky waters abound. A much safer road, carved into the side of the mountains, now exists.
-
Il lago d’Iseo o Sebino (in lombardo lac d’Izé) è un bacino lacustre dell’Italia settentrionale, situato in Lombardia. Ha come principale immissario ed emissario il fiume Oglio. Ha una superficie di 65,3 km2 e una profondità massima di 251 metri è situato a 180 m di quota nelle prealpi, posto in fondo alla Val Camonica, si incunea tra le province di Bergamo e di Brescia ed ospita la più grande isola lacustre naturale dell’Italia: Monte Isola cui fanno da satelliti a nord e a sud i due isolotti di Loreto e di San Paolo.

Ancient Noto – Sicily – Eremo di S. Maria della Provvidenza
Postprocessing RAW:– lights and saturation
—</strong

Interno dell’Eremo di Santa Maria della Provvidenza, costruito dopo il terremoto del 1693

oto antica fu fondata all’epoca di Ducezio re dei siculi (verso il 428 a.C.) e diventata capovalle durante l’epoca araba. Era una città importantissima nella Sicilia ed era confederata con altre due città: Messina e Taormina. Alla città fu dato anche il titolo di Città ingegnosissima da Ferdinando il cattolico nel 1503.
Si ritiene che Ducezio, continuamente in guerra con i Greci, sia stato indotto alla scelta del sito sul monte Alveria dalle difese naturali da cui è circondato, alti costoni rocciosi e profonde valli; vi si godeva poi, la vista del mar Jonio ed era facile la discesa verso la spiaggia (anche se più lunga rispetto a quella sul nuovo sito). Noto era così un sito perfetto per la sua inespugnabilità, essa infatti non fu mai conquistata con la forza.
Dunque Ducezio, che avendo costruito Mineo in posizione elevata, non poteva tollerare di lasciare la sua patria in un luogo umile ed insicuro (l’antica neas sul monte dell’Aguglia) e gettò sul monte Alveria le basi della città di Noto, circondandola di mura. Nell’antica città fiorirono ginnasi dei filosofi.

—————————————————————————————————————————

La Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II di Milano è un passaggio coperto che collega piazza della Scala e piazza Duomo tra loro e con due vie (via Silvio Pellico e via Ugo Foscolo) tramite due corti bracci perpendicolari all’asse principale. Fu progettata dall’architetto Giuseppe Mengoni e realizzata a partire dal 1865 in uno stile eclettico, con grottesche, cariatidi, lunette e lesene, tipico della seconda metà dell’Ottocento milanese.
In Galleria hanno sede numerosi negozi di griffe e marchi prestigiosi oltre che famosi caffè e ristoranti, da qualche anno compagni anche di una nota catena di fast food. È considerata, con Via Montenapoleone e Via della Spiga, una delle sedi dello shopping di lusso meneghino.

————————————————————————————————————————

The Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is a covered double arcade formed of two glass-vaulted arcades at right angles intersecting in an octagon; it is prominently sited on the northern side of the Piazza del Duomo in Milan, and connects to the Piazza della Scala. Named after Vittorio Emanuele II, the first king of united Italy, it was originally designed in 1861 and built by Giuseppe Mengoni between 1865 and 1877.

Fobello (in piemontese Fobél o Fobeli) è un comune di 246 abitanti della provincia di Vercelli. Si trova in Valsesia, collocato all’estremità di uno dei due rami della Val Mastallone.
Il nome significa faggio bello, a segnalare la presenza di ricchi boschi che circondano l’abitato.
A Fobello nacque Vincenzo Lancia,
fondatore dell’omonima casa automobilistica. Si trasferisce poi a Varallo per affrontare gli studi e qui inizia a lavorare come meccanico, acquisendo quelle prime competenze e la passione che lo spingeranno a costruire una casa automobilistica.
Il vallone di Roj, nel territorio comunale di Fobello, fa parte del Parco naturale Alta Valsesia.

Brunate (Brünàa in Dialetto lombardo occidentale) è un comune di 1.803 abitanti[1] della provincia di Como. Il paese è noto soprattutto per la presenza di numerose ville in stile eclettico e liberty, per la presenza di una funicolare che la collega alla città di Como e per i numerosi punti panoramici da cui si può vedere l’intero arco alpino occidentale, la Pianura Padana e gli Appennini. Per quest’ultima caratteristica, Brunate è nota come il "Balcone sulle Alpi".

———————————————————————————————————————–

Brunate is an Italian town and commune, part of the province of Como, near Lake Como (northern Italy, 50 km north/east from Milan).
Brunate is famous for its landscapes: the whole Alps can be seen on very sunny days.
Brunate has 1,770 citizens, but is much more populated in summer, when tourists rent houses and apartments.
A funicular connects Brunate down to Como. Very interesting trekking paths start from Brunate.

From Dusk To Dawn

Well as the title states this was taken just before the sun rose to after it set on Dec. 31st 2011. I needed something to do while waiting for the fireworks at midnight so I decided to take a timelapse of sorts and merge them all into one frame. For 17 hours I sat at the Partner’s hub directly in front of the castle clicking my camera away every so often all the while guarding my tripod from the other tourist walking by. Unfortunately for me my biggest enemy was myself as I think I tapped my tripod more times than the other people. Normally I would assume there wouldn’t be as many people in the shot but for New Year’s Eve they really packed in all the shows they could. I think I saw every show they had in front of the castle at least 4 times not to mention the other parades at least 2 times each. It was cool the first time, than the second time was for capturing pictures I missed the first time and after that I just sat and waited.

Someone asked to see the RAW photo of this shot… here it is. 4 images merged into one. You can see a block sitting in front of the danboard on the left. I actually had to merge one more photo from before the block landed in front of him. It only took 2 seconds to mask it out since the danboard didnt move at all and all my lights are consistent. Since it was against a blue background, it was easy to do blue screen removal to get the blocks on a transparent layer (not that cutting them out with the lasso would of been very hard since they are just blocks, but removing the blue using my After Effects method takes seconds). In the first pic on the left, you can see my hair in the upper left corner cause I was blowing the blocks over. I had to rebuild the Jenga set about 5 times before I finally got the pic I wanted. My after effects green screen removal technique can be seen in detail here: www.louish.com/2010/09/Easy_and_Perfect_Green_Screen_remo…

I also edited the mouth of the danboard on the left, I cloned his eye, and then enlarged the clone.

The Danbo text was created in Corel Draw X5, Text Written then I used the extrude tool to make it 3 dimentional.

The lighting for this photo was done with the following:
1/160 sec at f/11, 100mm 2.8L IS USM Macro Lens, ISO 400, 5D Mark II
AlienBee B800 in back at lowest power using my new UBR Background Reflector (white shovel reflector) to get a gradient in the blue background triggered optically. Background is about 5 feet away from subject.

Twitter Photo Challenge #TwPhCh
Challenge #84: Pain
2nd upload

This was the first image that came to my mind when I saw the theme for this challenge. I’ve always imagined that people who contemplate committing suicide feel pain — afraid and alone in the darkness.

Should be viewed on a black background for full effect

A special thanks to Haavard H for inspirational work (you really should check out his stream).

Technical details
Shot in a dark room with a Canon 50D with Canon 17-40 f/4L at 17mm, f/8 ISO 200. Flash with DIY snoot at camera left, pointing down on the model. Triggered remotely by master flash on camera. Post-processing in Lightroom.
