“Sport ohne Ball” / Sport without a ball

The view from behind a rock sculpture at a skate park.

#photography #streetphotography #skateboarding

Photo taken at a skate park, from behind a rock sculpture. The rocks in the extreme foreground form an arched frame through which we see the rest of the scene in the distance: a park bench, some greenery and wire fencing, and behind that, a shirtless male skateboarder in a gray helmet, shorts, and kneepads in the middle of executing a move. Farther off are a tree and a red building under a clear sky.

“Saitenweise” / String by string

Not the best-quality photo, but a memory of an amazing NYC concert by the Gambian musician Sona Jobarteh — the first woman from a West African griot family to professionally play the kora, a 21-stringed instrument with a calabash gourd body. The skill is usually passed down from father to son and is reserved for prominent griots (master storytellers and keepers of oral tradition). She did her lineage proud.

#photography #monochrome #concert

Black and white photo of a seated woman onstage playing a kora on her lap. The instrument consists of a huge calabash gourd resonator with two wooden handgrips and a long hardwood neck extending upwards, with dowels to which taut strings are attached. A patterned scarf is draped over the base of the neck and hangs down over the gourd. The woman wears braids and a long-sleeved patterned gown. She looks down in concentration as she plucks the strings with her thumbs and forefingers while holding the handgrips with her remaining fingers. In front of her is a microphone stand and a drum set is in the background.

Fisheye lens shot on a light rail train. Love the way the relatively short flexible section gets elongated into a sci-fi-ish tunnel.

Fisheye shot looking down the length of a light rail train car. A short flexible section becomes a ribbed tunnel taking up half of the image, with the rest of the train car with people sitting and standing as they ride recedes into the far distance.

#Photography

Black and white photo looking into a dark covered car park. Along the far wall, wide, glassless, windows are covered by diagonal grids. Light falls through these, cross-hatching sections of slim white pillars and the part of the front of a lone car facing the wall at the far left. The picture has been taken through similar bars, though these are blurred to the point of barely existing.

Thin surface ice on a stream
#Nature #NaturePhotography #Photography
Photograph of leaves in a shallow stream with a thin layer of ice on the surface refracting the sunlight into glowing ripples across the faces of the submerged leaves.
Photograph of a leaf nestled against a dark stick on the frozen surface of a small stream. The ice has formed so that ridged lines radiate out from the stem tip of the leaf. Other small angular ice patterns fill in the gaps between the stick and other forest debris on the thin, icy surface.

⚙️🫡 Steampunk Commander. An abandoned #ArtDeco control room inside an emergency standby powerplant, somewhere in #Belgium.

Navy blue panels line the walls, each set with analogue dials and levers. Two removed dials rest on the central desk, like top hats left behind by a Steampunk gentleman. Large windows and skylights fill the room with soft late-afternoon light.

Town Mansion, Belgium. One of the first grand (semi) abandoned houses I ever visited!

A mysterious man living (or squatting) in the attic gave me permission to enter and photograph. Outside a storm raged, lighting flashed and thunder shook the house. It was a memorable visit!

Built in 1912, neighbouring houses were lost to First World War bombing, leaving this one as a rare survivor.

We have a lot of ash trees, and we have the emerald ash borer, so we have a lot a dead trees, and we have a lot of woodpeckers, including the very large pileated woodpecker. #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #photography #nature #naturephotography #HoosierMast
A pileated woodpecker hangs onto a tree while he opens his wings showing the large white patch of feathers on the underside. Over the top edge of the wing, you can see his white and black head with its bright red crest and the red mustache that marks him as a male.
A male pileated woodpecker has lifted his wings, preparing to push off from the tree on which he has been hanging.
A male pileated woodpecker is airborne on his way to the feeder. His wings are almost folded against his body at this point in his flight. He looks like a red headed missile.

A year ago, I tested the responses from Google's Vision API using a tool called "They See Your Photos" which showed Google's analysis was riddled with inaccuracies and weird judgements.

I ran another experiment this year to see what, if anything, had changed and –wow!– have there been changes!

#Photography #MonochromeMonday #FotoMontag

Night black & white photo of a series of four deep alcoves in a wall that curves in towards the right edge. Each alcove has a lamp at the apex of its roof that illuminates a spindly leafless tree standing in a circular planter below. Above the trees is an enclosed path, also lit from within, with a single person walking rightwards from the middle. Above in the darkness are a glowing office windows.

Stairway to...?

#Photography #MonochromeMonday #FotoMontag

Black and white photo taken at night, so most of the image is black, with a bare white spiral staircase in the middle that fades into being around the brightly lit central column under what might be a circular platform. The stairs spin off leftwards into the dark below to meet unclear shapes glinting in the deep dark.

Jag brukar inte bry mig så mycket om väder. Det går att hitta på något eller fotografera i det mesta, men november och första delen av december har varit konstant tjockt med moln och 85-90 av tiden regn. ☹️

Nå väl, experimenterade lite i går, men det räcker nu. ☔️

Going Dotty 🟠🔵 for #minimalismmonday and #fotovorschlag "Ringe" / "Rings"

I was actually trying to take a picture of a Basil leaf and I had an LED light under it and well, I failed... 😂 no leaf picture. However, when the camera was out of focus it made a cool, abstract pattern with the bulbs! ✨

The photo is a pattern of blurred, out-of-focus circles arranged in rows and columns. The circles alternate in colour between warm, orange-toned hues and cooler, blue-toned hues. The background is dark, and emphasizes the glowing effect of the circles.

Das Foto zeigt eine kurzen Abschnitt eines gelben Berliner U-Bahnzugs, der an einem Bahnsteig hält. Links und rechts ist eine Tür, dazwischen ein Fenster. Die Türen der Bahn wurden gerade geschlossen - die roten LED-Leisten an den Türen leuchten. Durch das große Fenster in der Mitte sind im Inneren drei sitzende Personen zu erkennen, die mit dem Rücken zu den Fenstern sitzen. Der Boden des Bahnsteigs ist hell und mit dunklen tastbaren Leitstreifen versehen. Einer davon führt mittig vom Vordergrund zum Fenster des U-Bahnzugs. Der Blick wird dadurch auf die Person gelenkt, die fast mittig mit dem Rücken zum Fenster sitzt. Auf dem Bahnsteig bewegen sich zwei Personen von rechts nach links durchs Bild. Sie sind in Bewegung und dadurch sehr unscharf abgebildet. Die Person links ist im Vordergrund und schon teilweise außerhalb des Bildausschnitts. Die Person rechts ist im Hintergrund nah an der U-Bahn und betritt gerade den Bildausschnitt. Die Szene wirkt urban und alltäglich, aufgenommen in einer modernen U-Bahn-Station. Die dominante Farbe ist das kräftige Gelb des Zuges. The photo shows a short section of a yellow Berlin subway train stopped at a platform. There is a door on the left and right, with a window in between. The train doors have just closed—the red LED strips on the doors are lit up. Through the large window in the middle, three people can be seen sitting inside with their backs to the windows. The platform floor is light-colored and has dark tactile guide strips. One of these leads from the center of the foreground to the subway train window. This draws the viewer's gaze to the person sitting almost in the center with their back to the window. Two people are moving across the platform from right to left. They are in motion and therefore appear very blurred. The person on the left is in the foreground and already partially outside the frame. The person on the right is in the background, close to the subway, and is just entering the frame. The scene appears urban and everyday, taken in a modern subway station. The dominant color is the bright yellow of the train.

Ten years ago, to the minute, I stood in front of this tree and pressed the shutter.
The tree is still there. The light still returns.

A leafless tree stands alone in the centre of a wide, open field, captured in high-contrast black and white. Its dark trunk and dense web of bare branches form a sharply defined silhouette against the pale, foggy horizon, and its shadow stretches to one side across the ground. The flat, lightly textured field fades into mist in the distance, while the vast sky above fills the frame with soft, horizontal bands of grey that suggest layered clouds.

A black and white landscape photo of a white goose with black wingtips. The black on the wingtips covers about a quarter of the wing. Otherwise, the goose is pure white. The goose is flying towards the left with its wings fully outstretched as though it were gliding. The goose appears to be looking at the camera. The eyeball is black.

#Birds #Nature #BirdPhotography #Wildlife #Photography #Darktable

A color landscape photo of a duck. The colorful duck faces toward the right and fills most of the frame. It has green feathers with iridescent colors of yellows, blues, and reds on top of its head. These feathers sweep back into a "duck tail". Its lower head is black with white thin line highlights. There's a red eye. The chest is a bronze color with light tan spots. The back is black with more iridescent colors. There's white highlights on the back as well. The side is a brown color with very fine white and black lines. The belly is a light tan color. The duck stands on a rock that is in water. The duck is scrunched down and relaxed.

View of a gray concrete surface. Yellow metal supports protrude into the image from all sides and end on the concrete surface. At the bottom left, there is a light source outside the image, causing the supports to cast long dark shadows. The same applies to the upper right corner of the image, where a light source shines into the image from the bottom right.
