PAELLA by ONETERRY on Flickr.Paella (Valencian: [paˈeʎa], Spanish: [paˈeʎa]) is a Valencian rice dish that originated in its modern form in the mid-19th century near lake Albufera, a lagoon in Valencia, on the east coast of Spain. Many non-Spaniards view paella as Spain’s national dish, but most Spaniards consider it to be a regional Valencian dish. Valencians, in turn, regard paella as one of their identifying symbols. There are three widely known types of paella: Valencian paella (Spanish: paella valenciana), seafood paella (Spanish: paella de marisco) and mixed paella (Spanish: paella mixta), but there are many others as well. Valencian paella consists of white rice, green vegetables, meat (rabbit, chicken, duck), land snails, beans and seasoning. Seafood paella replaces meat and snails with seafood and omits beans and green vegetables. Mixed paella is a free-style combination of meat, seafood, vegetables, and sometimes beans. Most paella chefs use calasparra or bomba rices for this dish. Other key ingredients include saffron and olive oil View Larger

Reflected Arcs by Ole C. Salomonsen on Flickr.The web is flowing over with pictures of spectacular auroras these days, and I have thousands just from the last days, litterally speaking, and will post later. But here I am posting a little different shot, beautiful auroras dancing over arctic mountains at Senja, Northern Norway, reflected in a perfectly calm pond in the foreground. The scene was dark due to no moon, and even if I lightened up the foreground slightly, the image may appear dark due to downsizing on some uncalibrated screens. View Larger

The web is flowing over with pictures of spectacular auroras these days,

Norwegian Woods by Ole C. Salomonsen on Flickr.Shot this on sept 27/28th. Amazing conditions currently from the flow from the sun. Barely time to be home. Just have to charge the batteries and head out again! I crawled out on a narrow slippery rock to be able to shoot this. Low standpoint, as low as my tripod allwoed me. The river was very very calm, I could look straight through the surface to the bottom when the lights lit it up in the complete darkness. Canon EOS 5D Mark II + Nikon 14-24G 2.8 @ f/2.8, ISO 3200. Slightly underexposed so some noise was present, had to use som noise reduction. But overall satisfied with this location and composition. View Larger
