A second shot of the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol last week, this time taken looking between the towers and with a long exposure to capture the traffic trails.

Milky Way over Donner
Tiki Mike has added a photo to the pool:
When its 100 degrees in Sacramento is the perfect time to head to Donner Lake for the evening. The temperature is perfect, no wind, and the stars are rather bright. Some of them reflect in the lake. The darkness along with the quiet, still air makes for a special time.
Graceful Presence
YaniNation has added a photo to the pool:
Some friends and I got together to do some light painting photography at night. I was skeptical of the outcome, as I try to make my photos tell a story, and not just be "oh, look at the pretty lights." I was really pleased with the outcome here. I feel like I've created an old time story here. We've got what used to be a grand (relatively speaking) house, with a great staircase going up to the porch, that has long been abandoned. I've set up these led votive candles to create somewhat of a warm/romantic feeling. Then I used my EL wire to create movement coming down the staircase. This was my favorite of my shots, and to me it looks like a woman coming down the stairs. Perhaps a woman in her wedding dress whose life was shortened tragically, keeping her from moving on from this eternal plain.
Beach Rider!!!
PreludeVTEC01 has added a photo to the pool:
Besides the actual beach my favorite spot in MB is Broadway at the Beach. It is a large "outlet mall" like place with beachy type stores and not generic clothing stores, like Polo, Nike ect. They also have a bunch of attractions there. The Beach Rider is a powerful boat that speeds through the lake in the middle and makes really sharp turns. I would love to do it one day as it looks like a ton of fun. Seems as if this boat load is having a blast!

Appley Tower
Michael Tendler has added a photo to the pool:
Appley Tower is a Victorian mock castle tower on the esplanade overlooking the beach at Ryde on the Isle of Wight. I visited here last night with my camera club and although I took plenty of shots there were none that I was *that* happy with. This is probably my favourite from the evening.
A long exposure, 30 seconds at f/7.1, ISO 640. Whilst the shot was being taken I used my little maglite to 'paint' the brickwork with light to help illuminate it in the dark, although the effect of a lamp post can be seen to the left hand side of it.
I like that the steps and railings start in the lower-right corner and lead your eye up to the main subject itself, and also that I captured the movement of the clouds in the sky and the stars too. This is also razor sharp at 100% and I just love that the focussing of the 5D Mark III is so good in low-light like this.

"Quebec Lights"
The Shot
It's absolutely amazing how many shots I found, whilst cleaning up my Lightroom after the switch from Aperture. This one is from Dec. 2010, my last business trip to Quebec City so far. A beautiful city in Canada and for sure the most beautiful in Quebec. We stayed somewhere downtown. I guess, this was taken from inside the Hilton hotel, but I can't acutally quite confirm that for sure. Tripod setup in the room (it was -40C outside) with the lens directly at the window to avoid any reflections (even with the lights completely turned off, there can be reflections. I hope to be able to go back soon and once again photograph this amazing city. I think this shot was actually taken with the old Nikon D60 :). Sold it long time ago, but it got me into photography and was a neat little camera to take with you while traveling.
News
A big thank you for all my new G+ and Flickr followers. The numbers have increased significantly over the past few weeks and part of it, is simply that I am a lot more active. Thanks for your inspiration and wonderful words.
I will probably getting the 17-55 f/2.8 for my D7000. I am currently using for about 50% my shots the 28-70 f/2.8 but find the focal range quite useless in most cases. This will make a good combo with the Tokina 11-16 f/2.8. I am desperately waiting for a Nikon 70-200 f/4!!! There is no way I lug around the 70-200 f/2.8 on my international travels or for street photography. Way too big, I find.
Others
- Still working on a re-design of the blog page only on my website www.andredistel.com. The rest is pretty much finished for now, with new shots being added on a regular basis. I am thankful and open for any ideas that you might have.
- I invested quite some time in G+ recently and don't regret it. It also caused me to spend less time on Flickr. To all my #flickr friends - sorry, I will post there as well, but probably not as regular as here. Same goes for my FB account and profile. I have opened it to subscribers recently but it is not my main focus.
- If you have any questions, please feel free ask
Cheers,
André
Greenland Aurora
Craig_Mann84 has added a photo to the pool:
This image was taken several hours after sunset in a isolated town called Kuummiut in the East of Greenland. This inunit community consists of around 400 people. The local church provides fore ground for this image with the northern lights on display over this Inuit home. The band of the milkyway can be seen above the mountains in the distance

A rare opportunity at Hamarikyu gardens this evening as they had extended opening hours until 9pm instead of the normal 5pm.
Nighttime at the cruise-in

The September 28, 2012 downtown cruise-in at Jackson, Michigan. This was the last cruise-in of the 2012 season, and probably was the biggest one. This was the last shot I took before leaving the show
to return home.
As you see, far too many car owners like to show off their engines!

To view in stereo, sit 2-3 feet from the monitor and gently cross your eyes so that the two images become three. The one in the middle will be in 3d. If you are finding this difficult, you may be trying too hard. Viewing the original size is best.

Lihou Island.
These ruins are situated on the tiny island of Lihou right next to Guernsey. It is only accessible at the lowest of tides and so last night was a real opportunity to go across as the moon was also out to play and low tide was around midnight.
