https://zirk.us/@ChrisMayLA6/110629435007961100 ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us - For those of you with your #headinyourhands about the stalled 'negotiations' to allow the UK to (re)enter the EU's #Horizon #research programme.... here's something to brighten your evening; @tomgauld on mixing up your research proposal & your book manuscript.
Earlier today, I used a #MacroLens to #photograph a subject close up. Now I switched to a #telephoto lens with a #FocalLength of 400 mm to capture objects effectively at #infinity.
You may have seen some of my #sunset #photographs before and, yes, it's the same #horizon and the same old #Sun but this one caught my eye because of its sharpness. There wasn't a cloud in the vicinity of the Sun when it was setting. You can see the bright, smoothly varying #yellow, #gold and #orange of the #sky contrasting the dark, sharp #silhouettes of the #trees in the #foreground. Also there's that mobile phone mast too.
#Cropping the image around our local #star, you see the #trees in what I'm calling #ExtremeSilhouette as the blinding light of the Sun seem to flow around solid wood and renders it invisible with only the ends of branches seemingly suspended in mid air disconnected to the trunk and giving the Sun the appearance of having spiky hair.
A little after #sunset and the #NewMoon at #dusk is approaching the #western #horizon, with #Earthshine illuminating the "dark" side. There's also #Venus there and, if you look very closely, you can also see #Saturn to the bottom right of the #planet. Add in a wisp of #cloud, an #aeroplane and its #contrail in the mid distance, #trees and a #house nearby and finish it off with a #sky turning from smoothly from deep #orange to a dark #blue and you end up with rather a nice collage. I used a #tripod to get a good #photograph here.
Post #sunset, the sky cleared up somewhat and the #gold on the #horizon merged into the deep #blue of approaching night. (Apologies about the slightly blurred images as I didn't have time to set up my #tripod.)
The #fog had dissipated from the #neighbourhood but lingered as #mist on lower ground like a #translucent #shroud of #water #vapour.

Two #photographs taken at #dusk. The first is just before #sunset with a #house and #trees in the #foreground in #silhouette. I like the #LensFlare in this #image.
The next was taken about a quarter of an hour later when the #Sun had passed over the #horizon. This illuminates to #clouds nicely. You can also see an #aeroplane and its short #contrail too.
Earlier, I posted an #overcast #sky but the #clouds are clearing along the western #horizon. Here the #sunset is approaching but I would call this a #sunsink, as the #Sun emerges from its erstwhile #occlusion but the #Earth is about to rotate it over the edge into #night. The #orange light cast into this room was beautiful for a few moments.
Today was again a #sunny end to the #day and I decided to take #portrait #photographs of the #sunset. This shows a greater portion of #sky away from the #horizon and so you can gauge the #colour gradients better.
This first one gives a wider (taller) field of view without the window frame encroaching into the #image.
The second one is slightly more zoomed in.

Aujourd’hui il fait gris. le soleil s’est carapaté avec la rentrée. A la radio les infos sont toujours aussi tragiques. Pourquoi faudrait-il être informé sans cesse ? Traditionnellement je vais descendre au marché et aller boire un coup avec la compagnie. Un rituel comme un autre qui occupe agréablement la matinée. Mais pourquoi faut-il toujours être occupé ? Je vois au mouvement de mon corps que le cœur remplit son rôle. Une bonne journée en perspective. Les platanes de la place balancent eux aussi légers au vent. Aucun missile ne viendra perturber ce bel arrangement. Le frigo est plein, les livres sur l’étagère s’étalent, mille distractions sont à ma disposition. Cela devrait-il suffire ? Seul mes doigts de pieds nus et froids perturbent l’instant. La plénitude est presque là. Et pourtant …. L’insatisfaction ne serait-elle pas finalement le propre de l’homme. Ce qui le fait aussi avancer, aller voir ce qui se cache derrière l’horizon. Mais pourquoi faudrait-il toujours avancer ? Les sens stimulés en permanence nous entraînent imperturbables hors de notre vivier primal. Vivre c’est aussi et principalement souffrir, pas que, bien sûr. Les nuances de la souffrance sont aussi innombrables que les étoiles du cosmos. Mais celle immédiate n’est-elle pas la plus tenue ? N’est-ce pas en fin de compte le désir et le manque qui essentiellement nous guident. Cette souffrance de l’âme indissociable de notre existence. Plus de désir, plus de manque……l’extase suprême ou….la mort. Mireille MOUTTE
Here's the #evening #Sun in a relatively #cloudless sky. However, the #cloud in this image adds an interesting feature to what would otherwise be a rather bland scene, apart from the irregular and rather baroque #horizon. I actually like the #LensFlare in the image around the Sun along with its apparent rays.
