Money on the Arno River

EXIF. ISO: 200, Exposure: 1/320 sec, Aperture: 8, Focal Length: 22mm, Flash Used: No.

According to wikipedia the Ponte Vecchio ("Old Bridge") is a Medieval bridge over the Arno River, in Florence, Italy, noted for still having shops built along it, as was once common. Butchers initially occupied the shops; the present tenants are jewelers, art dealers and souvenir sellers.
The reason behind this image (dedicated to my friend Lito) is because I want to inform you about a contest Sarah told me, click here for a chance to win $5000 cash and $200 monthly to a random winner (like you and me!). Well, I've applied myself since I really need some extra cash... who doesn't! :)
Probably you are wondering how this image is related to this contest... if you follow the link you will find out!

BTW: Follow this link for a previous image of this same old bridge. Read More!

Another day, another sunset II

Today I saw a beautiful sunset, nothing more nothing less than a perfect instant. Even when I had my camera ready, a sunset in the middle of a busy city contains those ugly cables we all hate (and I had no time for cloning them out) so I selected an old sunset I wanted to share with you. Hope you like it... and you can use it as wallpaper if you want!
This one is dedicated to my good friend D3m4514D0v1v0 (he loves dark shots).
BTW: Title comes from a previous image.

Music in a Sunset

EXIF. ISO: 100, Exposure: 1 sec, Aperture: 10, Focal Length: 22mm, Flash Used: No.

“Music is a mysterious mathematical process whose elements are part of Infinity. ... There is nothing more musical than a sunset. He who feels what he sees will find no more beautiful example of development in all that book which, alas, musicians read but too little — the book of Nature.”
~ Claude Debussy

The end of the day is near... a brand new one is coming your way, get ready for it please!

Another day, another sunset

Photoshop? Of course not! Just a gimp(ed) image! :).
This one is dedicated to those people (3 persons) that sent emails to me saying things like "your last image is your worst image ever"... hope you like this waterscape better!

“Know what you want to do, hold the thought firmly, and do every day what should be done, and every sunset will see you that much nearer to your goal. ”

Real Flower Umbrella at sunset

EXIF. ISO: 100, Exposure: 1/1000 sec, Aperture: 6.3, Focal Length: 100mm,Flash Used: No, Post Processing: gimp.

As you can see this image is somehow related with THIS one. Now I present you a pretty dark backlight photo... but for some reason I like the way it resulted after a bit of processing with gimp, hope you like it too. As usual, comments are welcomed!

Sunset/Whiskey on the rocks

As you can see I have a new template on my blog, hope you like it... To tell the truth I made a mistake and deleted the previous one so I needed to prepare something! :)
I've started to work on this new one, but as you can see there is a lot to do... eventually everything will work again.
Ok, this is a photo related blog (nor an HTML/CSS blog) so let's focus on this image, dedicated to my friend Marcela. As you can see this is a long exposition image, here you have the tech details.
