Pink Silhouetted Love by Taylor Sawyer

Featured in Silhouettes Jan 7, 2009 Silhouetted Love edited with a pink undertone and stuff on dock removed. This couple has decided to use this photo for their wedding invitation! I’m so excited about that! Their colors are pink and hunter green, so I changed the color of the photo to make their invitations. Thought I would offer it up as a card on here as well! :-)

Best Viewed larger STRAIGHT FROM THE CAMERA / I took this image many years ago in Cape Cod, Mass. with one of my very first cameras that I wanted to share with you. / It was about 5am on a cool day in 1979. I just turned 20 yrs. old and on my own when I desided to take my very first vacation with a friend of mine. We went for 9 days on 200 dollars. each….lol.. B&B all the way. I think the last two nights were camping in the woods under a leantwo… / This image was a great reminder of the trip as I think back now on how Eileen and I had the time of our life.. the fun we had didn’t cost much, just silly girlfriend stuff. / Those were the days. / That was the last trip I would take with her. The next Christmas eve, she was to pick up a friend at the airport who was coming in from out of town and died in a car accident on the way… / . /

Sunset Over Redfish Rocks by Randall Scholten

These scenic seastacks are located south of Port Orford, Oregon, USA, a small fishing village on the southern Oregon coast. To get an idea of the size of these rock monoliths, look for the fishing boat just above the left-most rock. Nikon D700 w/50mm f/1.7 lens. ISO 400, 1/200th, f/7.1
When the skaters had gone by jchanders

It was quite long after sunset before the last skaters had left the other evening at Kinderdijk. What remained were the silhouettes of the 18th-century windmills standing out against a beautiful evening sky. For those of you who do not know about the specific role of these windmills in such places as Kinderdijk, just the following. As wind was the only power to drive a mill in the Netherlands before the age of steam and electricity, it was used for all sorts of mills, corn-mills, sawing-mills and waterpumping-mills. The mills at Kinderdijk were such pump-mills, used to pump and keep the low-lying polderland dry. You needed quite a lot of such wind-mills for that purpose in certain places such as here at Kinderdijk. In most cases only a few of these mills have survived. At Kinderdijk you can still find an extraordinary high number within a small area, i.e. 19 mills – it is this sight which makes Kinderdijk one of the touristic hotspots of the Netherlands and has secured its place as a world heritage site. While electric pumps have taken over the function of these mills generally, in some places they are restored to their original function, as a new and very old way of using energy in a natural way. Few people actually realize that in case of a really long-lasting power failure we would all get wet feet in most of the western and northern parts of the Netherlands. More windmills needed badly!

Cypress Silhouettes in St. Martin Parish by Bonnie Taylor Barry

Lake Martin is one of my favorite places; every sunset is unique and different but always tranquil and peaceful. On this particular evening, the sky was aflame with light and the dark cypress trees stood in stark contrast to the brilliant colors of the sunset.

“Water of everlasting life”
A frayed knot by TedWiden

I’m guessing that SOME people haven’t heard the joke about a string that went into a bar, only to be thrown out because “We don’t serve strings in here!” But being a clever string, he tied himself into a big tangle and roughed up his hair, then went back in. “Hey, aren’t you a string?” they asked. To which he replied, “I’m a frayed knot.” This little rope was shot with the macro, with only a small lamp to provide backlighting. Will I give you any more information than that? I’m afraid not :) :)
