The Rising Clouds

I haven't been able to maintain this "one picture a day" thing ever since the holiday in June. Anyway I've tried to be as consistent as possible but that difficult with the long college hours and the added assignments they give us everyday.

This photograph was taken the last time I saw this tower. I haven't seen it since because of the weather here. We've had rains everyday which is a good thing since it brings the temperatures down a bit but it's not that great when you have to get to class in the morning.

The Fading Light

The sun itself was blocked by clouds but this particular portion of the sky was just beautiful as the sun went down.
I decided to shoot a timelapse of the clouds which I'll try and put together soon. Having a slow computer does not help with timelapses especially when it crashes.

Rising Above

This one is definitely going to be added to my "The Tower On The Hill" series which isn't really progressing this time of year because of the fog. In the mean time I think I'll just try and come up with a better title for this project.

Anyway this was taken during a relatively cloudless day so the sunset didn't have tons of colours but the clouds around the tower caught the sunlight and looked pretty good along with the tower.

Also the "Best of 2013" video is nearly done. I'll try and have it up on Youtube by Monday.

The Rise

I'd almost forgotten that I had these pictures with me. Today was really cold which is kinda surprising because it was warm and sunny yesterday. The fog is thick and the mountains invisible.

This one is going to be added to my "The Tower On The Hill" series. I quite like this one because of the cloud that seems to be emanating from the tower itself.

I took this picture when I lost my way. Well not really lost because I know that area pretty well, it's just that I was supposed to meet a bunch of people who I thought were there but ended up being elsewhere. Not that they have magical powers or anything but they weren't specific as to where they would be.

Anyway the extra walk was worth it because I did get some really good pictures.

I almost forgot to mention that I will be releasing a "Best of 2013" slideshow during the first week of January on my Youtube channel so stay tuned for that.

Also I'm going to do my best to keep writing tutorials for this blog. The light painting tutorial I wrote (that's still there somewhere - click here) was well received so I plan to continue that. I might also start video tutorials again.

The Tower On The Hill

It's been a while since I've posted a picture of this tower.

This is one from the on-going series titled "The Tower On The Hill".

I don't think I'll ever put an end to the series - at least not as long as I'm in this place and able to take pictures of this tower.

The Tower On The Hill

Another one from my ongoing series "The Tower On The Hill".

A few months back I would have never thought that I would be taking so many pictures of this particular tower. I never had and I never thought I would but this has provided so many new opportunities that I actually think I missed out in the past.

Anyway, what's done is done and there is the future to look to.
