At yet another birthday party with the kids this past weekend, at Quassy amusement park located on Lake Quassapaug. The kiddie park area, where I inevitably spend most of my time, is separated from the water by only a fence. So of course, with the sun setting, my attention is being torn by this lovely sunset glittering on the water...and like usual, I feel like I'm the only one noticing the beauty.
I took some shots, but this time for kicks, I tried a few shots in sunset mode, which is something I very rarely use because I don't like the result. It seems to take away the colors and adds an almost sepia tone...maybe because it's an older camera, I don't know. But I actually like the result here, giving everything an amber glow...reminding me of tiger-eye contrasting with the dark areas.
Have a wonderful day, my friends :-)
This photo is a tribute to the lovely Amber Wild. She passed away recently after being one of the biggest supporters of Attention SL. We are returning to print on Jan 2 and the issue has been dedicated to her memory.
We all have the ability to affect someone else with positive energy and human kindness. This was Amber's specialty. She will be missed.

…There are no moments you have frozen in amber. It’s moving, it’s changing, so appreciate what’s good about right now and be ready for what’s next….. ~Michael J Fox
A detail from the waterfall above. Trying to catch the sense of movement and the rich colours after the heavy rain in the Peak District. The dark tannins in the water gave it an amber richness.
The most attractive thing about our cat is his amber eyes. But the whole face is very cute, and the white socks on the paws and the white triangular bib are also charming. It’s very difficult to say what I like most about him - he is overall a completely perfect creation of nature!
Thank you all for visits, favs and comments, it's greatly appreciated!
Amber Eyes - I posted mom yesterday, this is the kitten at approximately 11 months of age. She will soon be on her own. This is a tight crop, which I usually do not like for portraits, but in this case, mom and kitten were on opposite sides of the trail and a cardinal rule of wildlife photography and watching in general is to never get in between a mother and her young. This can create vulnerability to predators and test the protective instincts of wildlife - neither of which are good outcomes.

Sun was setting and with the glow on the frost, I was able to focus on the ice rather than the trees. #72

20 - 50 - 100 million years old, amber entraps the insects, flora, dirt, air, etc., which have been trapped inside and preserves it so that we may see what life was like so so long ago.
Such is also the case for photography. Future generations (10 million years from now) will be able to look through images taken today and reconstruct what it was like in our times.
