The moon, stars, clouds, blue hour, starbursts, bokeh and everything else you see in my photos are real, they were really there at the time of photographing them and they all looked just as they do here in my photos, no gimmicks here, no computer trickery, no ''lazy photography'' (Photoshop), if it wasn't there at the time of taking the photo, it isn't in my photo stream.<br />
<br />
Photographers are LAZY these days, they want all them great looking things but can't be bothered to get out there at the correct optimal time and capture an image with them things naturally in the photo so they cheat, well there is no cheating going on here, as proof, next to the picture of the camera click on the blue writing over to the right that says ''show settings'' then click on the blue writing that says ''show EXIF'', now under ''software'' it will say ''Ver.1.00'' or something similar and not ''Photoshop'', this works for nearly all camera makes including all of my Nikon cameras but does not work with Canon DSLR cameras for some reason.<br />
<br />
All pictures are JPEG, Never RAW.<br />
<br />
A message to other photographers, stop cheating and get out there at the correct time, and stop using RAW and start using JPEG only ! <br />

<p>I returned to Europe in 2026, this time going to the British Isles, and my first stop was in London, England, capital of the United Kingdom. My hotel was situated in great proximity to the marble arch in the neighborhood of the same name, so it was the first thing I took a picture of.  Designed by architect John Nash, the marble arch was originally located in front of Buckingham Palace, having been erected there in 1827 under King George IV.  When Queen Victoria had the grounds of Buckingham Palace expanded in 1851, the arch was moved to his present location at the north eastern corner of Hyde Park.</p>
