Victory Column in Berlin:
(In case you are wondering, it was a very drab day.)

Love the mood and tone of the shot but am really curious as to what everyone is looking for?
Here is an approximately 180° view of Diamond Head (Oahu, Hawaii) and the surrounding area. I can't recall how many images are stitched together, but quite a few!
Likely fossils. If I'm not mistaken, this part of the English south coast is known as the Jurassic Coast on account of the large number of Jurassic-era marine fossils that regularly drop out of the crumbling coastal cliffs, particularly after a storm or very high tide. Lots of ammonites and the like.
Dinosaurs, of course!

Well worth an afternoon if you're down that way in the UK - I will post a result tomorrow!
Gold coins. So they can afford a new Leica M10.
Thanks mate!

Great shot! More aviation photos....helicopters would be appreciated. Going to have to get my wife to read this, I'd like a ride in a glider. Please let your wife know that she done good, real good. Who says it's hard to shop for guys. You know, that and Mollyc's cake....purrrrrrrfect.
Thank ya zagato.... Indeed it was an awesome gift. The B-17 is one of my all-time favorite aircraft. It was a real pleasure to fly around in it for an hour.

Ocean Fire
September 2017
This is some of the most awe-inspiring light I've seen and I was lucky enough to catch it on camera two night's ago.
I had a gut-feeling that there would be some good light for sunset after looking at the cloud cover to the West. I ventured out to this spot at Killantringan with little time to spare in the hope that I'd be in for nice colour - but I never imagined it would be this good.
Absolutely stunning.

Really wonderful capture! I am a huge fan of sunset shots and don't see enough of them here in NJ. Sunrises yes, but not up that early after retiring!

Oh great, I get to follow up a stunning "Ocean Fire" by @Mark0 shot with my quite pedestrian one. Oh well, I give you downtown Detroit.
I did find the scale of the Renaissance Center (aka the RenCen) mind-boggling as viewed from the river looking at the entrance.
Not exactly a face that one would describe as cute now is it.
But it is a very nice portrait.
So after living in this place for 9 months, I find out that there is a tiny lavender field 5 min walk away! An office building planted them near their entrance. How neat is that? I've never seen live lavender before!
Beautiful. I like the composition. The way he(?) looks tells a story, to my human eyes.
oh, and I'm sure his mother loves him.
Thank you. I'm a bit lazy for sunrises :S I really should do more of them though.
Thanks, it was the light that makes it. Balancing the exposure with the ND grad / solid ND to get the right shutter speed for the wave motion was straightforward but timing the waves was the difficult part. Composition isn't brilliant but it doesn't need to be in these shots when the light is the star of the show. I didn't do much PP either. The camera generated JPG was very close to this, but had shadows that were too deep and a bit more saturation. I pushed the shadows a bit and took away some saturation and luminosity. No luminosity masking though.
Thanks, I've got a few more from the same evening. To quote Thomas Heaton it was "absolutely stunning".
Thanks, I like your shot. I see a balance and flow to it with the way the buildings are composed. Kinda reminds me of an EQ
I loved its surly attitude and thanks!Not exactly a face that one would describe as cute now is it.
But it is a very nice portrait.
There was definitely something intriguing about this fellow. For sure, it's a face only its mother would love.
