In the windswept wilds of the North, a lone figure stands defiant atop a river stone, wrapped in a billowing white sheet that dances like a spirit in the wind. The landscape—rugged, raw, and golden under a break in the clouds—echoes the solitude and strength of the moment. It’s a portrait of resilience and grace, where nature and human presence blur into something timeless.
Moving up several magnitudes, this Red-shouldered hawk visited the pond looking for easy pickings. I spotted it and got the big lens from the other end of the house. It stayed on this pond spitter eyeing the fish or water. It did go out of sight down to the pond but must have used the rim of a lotus plant as a perch as when it came up some minutes later only its head showed signs of wetness and it did not get a koi. EXIF shows there's about 7 minutes from the first to the last frame of this raptor in the yard.
Life deals rough hands some times and the last couple of days haven't been the best in our lives - Didn't have plans to get up this morning btu it turns out I had a fair bit of nervous energy to get rid of and ended up going for a walk out at Bass Point - between showers and soft light it was good to get out and clear the head for an hour or so.
Apologies for the poetic licence with these ones ... some days you just don't feel it no matter how hard you wish to.

We just returned from 10 days on an icebreaker, the Origo, leaving Longyearbyen in the Svalbard Archipelago, Norway. It took us 2 days cruising to reach the ice. Fortunately, there we saw 4 polar bears--a female with 3 cubs, which is unusual. During the trip we saw a total of 12 polar bears, 5 of which were in photo distance. It was quite an experience to have respectful encounters with a mammal this large and realize that I was not the top of the food chain. This shot was taken from the Origo, others to come, from a zodiac. I want to thank Fllickr friends Ann Silvestre, and Mario Nonaka, for valuable information that helped us prepare for this amazing Arctic photo expedition.

I decided to freshen up my photosteam by revisiting the thousands of discarded pics I have taken.
Whilst this shot isn't great, I realised by collection of wild peregrine shots, could be similarly described.
