My photostream dried up the last few months, but that had a good reason.

Red is red is red - revisited
Calibrated my screen with a Spyder 3 Pro. Conclusion: It really makes a difference! I may have to (re)edit most of my previous work. Lots of (uw) pics are too dark and have a bit too much contrast & saturation.

Eureka! version 2
Now that I have experimented with the lego track (that kept on falling of underwater) I created a new zoom ring using the rubber band from an old dive mask. The problem was that I couldn't find any glue that would hold - so I finally stapled the zoom ring together. Results to date: excellent - smooth zoom control and it doesn't fall of anymore.

Sea Squirt in RGB
Ciona Intestinalis at Dreischor, Netherlands. Found almost embedded is some kind of red stuff that looked like velvet. The blue colour is probably a RAW conversion error (I use Lightroom), but I like the effect.

Impressionism
Straight from the camera, adjusted colours a bit and cropped to a proper composition. By tilting the camera while making a shot with longer exposure times this impressionistic image was created.
Studie: landschap impressie rechtstreeks uit de camera - geen photoshop, geen creatieve filters, alleen de camera op een juiste manier "bedienen" kleuren bijstellen en bijsnijden. Nu nog een leuk onderwerp...

Ladies are not adults
While being in the Kingdom of Saudi-Arabia, I noticed this sign at the hotel's swimming pool. From this eyebrow lifting statement one could infer that ladies are not adults. A product of bad English and the strict segregation of the sexes in KSA.
