Definite Migration!!!

Well, as I proclaimed some time ago, from now on I will definitely migrate to the Pixelpost-camp.
For nearly one year I posted my shots, and wrote down my thougts concerning them, the PhotoAcademy/Fotovakschool..., my Private Life, etc...
Well not any more!
No more Ronnie Kiekt...
Never More...(quoth the Raven...)never more...

Please go to the Ronaldus...Dus! - site, to follow up on my photographic escapades...

See you there!

Evening Silhouettes Part I

Well guys...
I just returned from my summer holidays to Corsica.
We stayed in and old house on a mountain in the village of Radicci, near Levie, which is in the mid-southern part of Corsica, just a very bumpy, curvy and winding 40 minutes cardrive from Porto-Vecchio and a similar 35 minutes from Bonifacio.
The mountainrange the house is looking on in this part of Southern Corsica (destination Ajaccio) is beautifully illuminated every evening.
Here is a shot of one of those evenings...
And yes I am afraid there are more to come...

Almost Biblical...

I believe those rays of light are called Jacob's Ladders...

The perfect Preservation of your Wife...

Although she might not like it...

Change of Blogs.....

In the time coming...Probably after the holidays season... I will be leaving the Blogger community...

I have found the Pixelpost possibillities and layout more appealing than the one I now use...

Momentarily I am just experimenting with the Pixelpost-code...and getting the hang of minor adjustments...
Not by far will I become a Code-Guru like some autodidactic whizzkids around Photoblogland...
I guess I do not have the wits, nore the time, or the patience for it...
But I will try and compare and maybe copy some of the beautifull things I see on my browse sessions...
You can take a look at my new Pixelpost Blog if you like...It is called : Ronaldus...dus!

Hope you enjoy, and ...comments are more then welcome!

How I did it??
Just experiment with the sliders...
I mostly use Pixmantec RAW-Shooter Premium...
Gives me more playground and better results to my liking...
