Purton Hulks. Gloucestershire by Nigel

Posted on 2019-06-05

Today is the 10th anniversary of my membership of the Aminus Community. I've managed to post a picture every day, in all a total of 3,653. Thanks for all the comments over the years. I apologise for not being able to reciprocate. Enjoy your photography people :-)
This image is of old barges, beached on the bank of the River Severn in the 50s and 60s. They are positioned to help prevent the erosion of the river bank.

Walking along the coast path in sunshine I took a series of pictures of these storm clouds and the rainbow to the south. They gradually moved along over Caldey Island as I walked. This is the last one where the rainbow was perfectly placed above the beach. I walk this stretch of coast regularly and it is always an uplifting experience. Particularly so this time.

Natural Mirror by Devendra

This was captured at the Pier in Luss Village near Loch Lomond shores. It was beautiful Sunday evening with very little wind and water around the shores had hardly any movement. A perfect template scene for a long exposure shot. One thing I hate about Lee Big Stopper is the blue hue it adds to the image. May be I could do with little more exposure.

How often we see a river stream flowing among mountains... cutting through those high rise peeks carrying water! I take it as an enlightening experience to find my way against all obstacles.

Sunny Afternoon at Loch Etive by Devendra

Posted on 2018-09-10

How gracefully we can relate our life to the properties of Nature... Our time on Earth flows like a stream of Water.... running through all sort of surfaces, obstacles, paces at various stages like excitement, aggression, joy, sorrow until we merge slowly into eternal peace of nothingness...

Dazzle ships were painted during the during the first world war and into the second in order to visually break up their shape and camouflage it, making the boats more difficult to identify and hit

Nunney Castle by Doug

Posted on 2018-05-06

Nunney Castle is a medieval castle at Nunney in the English county of Somerset. Built in the late 14th century by Sir John Delamare on the profits of his involvement in the Hundred Years War, the moated castle's architectural style, possibly influenced by the design of French castles, has provoked considerable academic debate. Remodelled during the late 16th century, Nunney Castle was damaged during the English Civil War

Elements in Nature by Devendra

Posted on 2019-06-03

This image was captured near Glenfinnan Viaduct on a Sunday evening. It's stopped raining just few minutes ago but there are clouds in the sky. The Sun still cannot penetrate through these thick layers, however that creates for a moody atmosphere.

As everything around had a cast of Grey, I decided to click this as Black-n-White.

Milton Abbas by Jules

When I was a young my Father was Rector for this village. While in Dorset, I took the opportunity to visit again. Though it is still just as picturesque and quintessentially Thomas Hardy's "Dorset", I couldn't help but feel disappointed. The presence of cars parked outside the thatched cottages sadly spoil the very essence of this village. This was the first time I have really got a sense of how much our lives have changed and how positive progress can also have detrimental consequences.

Aerotone by digitalCG

Posted on 2018-11-01

Designed and manufactured in Scotland, the Aerotone bath was a forerunner of the modern jacuzzi that used compressed air rather than water jets to massage the body. The last one was made in the 1950's and few examples survive today, this one dating back to 1952 was the first available for public use.

Greenwich, London, 2018.

As soon as I noticed him, I knew the gentleman is a must capture. I was a little hesitant initially, but the photographer in me sometimes surprises me. The frame was perfect, a lady in red on one side, the London Red bus on the other. I raised my camera.

Glen Etive by Devendra

Posted on 2019-03-29

This was shot while I was driving past Glen Etive, Scotland, UK. Weather in Scotland changes very rapidly. Just before I shot this picture, it was sunny and there were rainbows across the mountain. But by the time I stopped and got my phone out sun disappeared and so did the rainbow. Nevertheless the low clouds over the mountain still brought some moody-ness and drama in the frame and I happily accepted the picture Mother Nature gifted me. :)

About a week and a half ago we had a short city break in Liverpool. Unbeknown to us the Giants were making their fourth and final appearance there before retiring. We managed to catch up with them towards the end of our stay. Here Little Boy Giant lies in a hammock in St. George's hall, his chest gently rising and falling as he slumbers peacefully
