In some of the frames you can see what appears to be some type of luminescent materials.
At first, I thought it was a side-effect of the filters in combination with the electronic components & programming of the camera... Perhaps a side effect of the lens, or the inner workings of the DSLR which work VERY different than analogue, and use it's own internal calculated "algorithms" to filter what the image SHOULD look like.

But, my daughter kept find these rocks that were covered in a GREEN algae-like substance, and kept showing it to me. I was like: Uh-huh, that's nice... it's just some algae with some worm-like organism on it...

But, the things I'm picking up on the equipment SEEM to be showing THROUGH the water, form BENEATH it, and being refracted but the waves.

I was using a UV filter (one of several which I have) with a star cross-hair filter beneath that. So, I thought well it MUST be an optical effect of THAT, right?

But, the phenomena don't occur in ALL the photos, and ONLY in THAT spot.

Also the green glow shows no signs of the STAR effects on them like the glistening of the water ripple highlights.

I HAVE also heard of a type of algae or plankton that use bio-luminescence that can cause the beach to glow at some times of the year. I just never heard of it this far North.

So... is it bio material?

Or, is it a mechanical effect?

What The Blizzard Looked like From Inside The Building!

OK, last Snow blog.... I think...


Here's what the snow looked like from the inside, looking out.

Still haven't been able to afford to replace these windows/doors yet....

They leak....

The snow splatter on the screen, frozen stuck.... 





The view from the front lobby, snowed-in a bit:

And, the view from the back exit. It's snowed in so bad, you can't even walk outside.

Gloomy New England Snow Storm

This was 1 of the 1st snow storms we had in 2013.

You can;t see the falling snow, because it wouldn't catch it. But, I shot these in the snow, and it kept getting into my eyes.

Here are some other experimental ones with a Fisheye:

I really don;t know why the scripting got all weird here... and I have no idea how to fix it. I've tried everything I could think of, and I give up. *throws up hands*

Huo Guo (Chinese Hot Pot) Chinese New Year 2013 (poverty edition)

I still love publishing my photography onto my blog here. I just kept putting it off for job searching stuffs. But, I hope to publish more of my Autumn and snow stuff.

I've also gotten back into vlogging (video blogging) again, because Google sweetened & upgraded my contracts last year.

Anyways....

This was probably THE WORST EVER Chinese New Year for me EVER! Utterly poor.... as in poverty... not a very good Christmas either... but then again 2012 was probably my WORST EVER birthday as well... whatever, can;t get my hopes up for anything anymore, and there's another economic crash coming somewhere on the Horizon. Iceberg strait ahead!

Meanwhile, we still need to eat....

So, here is just some brief photos I took from my very, very poor, impoverished Chinese New year this year. :-/

But, at least we got to have some huo guo (Chinese Hot Pot)
