Apologies it’s been a while since I’ve posted. Work has been just a little busy. I had, as always, gone out for a walk with the mutt this evening and spotted a huge orange moon, but a macro lens isn’t the correct tool for the job, it did however mean that I ran to find the camera and have trawled back through the photos taken during the unlocked period that we enjoyed in Wales over the summer.
This was taken whilst we walked up sugar loaf mountain, not a native ladybird and looked pretty threatening I felt. Trust that you’re all keeping well, stay safe during these difficult times. Thanks for stopping
Apologies to Shakespeare.
This is about as iconic as it gets.... A courtyard in Mykonos, Greece.

Apologies for my absence! We have both of our children getting married in the next few months and things are pretty busy! I couldn't resist these pretty spring bulbs though ;)
Many thanks for all the kind comments and favs - they're very much appreciated.
For not being around or commenting on your(amazing ) photos, been an extremely busy week...father in law at weekend... sons girlfriends birthday yesterday and my middle man child’s 21st tomorrow not to mention our impending wedding in a couple of weeks! Needless to say my head is in a spin! Hence why I am still up at 130am!! Trying to calm a little lol...I think most of it is done now so all I need to do is relax and enjoy..(easier said than done lol). Hope you are all enjoying your weekend. I will try and pop in now and again. Have fun xxx
Apologies for a second post today...but this orange beauty stole my heart in the early evening sunlight.
Happy summer solstice everyone!
I'm Fast and I'm deadly., I'm a remorseless winged hunter., and if you were on my menu I'd literally eat you alive
But don't judge or hate me
Remember I've a much right to life as you have...
I'm a killer
I'm a survivor
I'm what nature made me
I am a bird of prey
And I'm not going to apologies for what I am
Apologies for being a bit awol. My 4 sisters and I spent much of the past week sorting out our Mum's things; a difficult job but one we were able to do together. Mum loved her clothes, shoes and bags and we're pleased that several charities will benefit from the donations. Today we have been helping my sister do the same with her son's things. Again, it was incredibly sad, but my sister was amazing - determined that many of his lovely things will benefit others.
As always, many thanks for all the lovely comments and faves on my images and I look forward to catching up with you all now.

What else should I be?
All apologies
What else could I say?
Everyone is gay
What else could I write?
I don′t have the right
What else should I be?
All apologies
In the sun
In the sun, I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
Married
Buried
I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I'll take all the blame
Aqua sea foam shame
Sunburn freezer burn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
In the sun
In the sun, I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
Married
Married
Married
Buried
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Apologies for the poor title.
A day of celeb spotting yesterday. I took the dog for a walk around the marine lake at West Kirby earlier in the day and saw the now barrel chested former England and Liverpool footballer John Barnes walking up Telegraph Road in Heswall with a newspaper under his arm and a bag of goodies from the Shell garage.
I popped in to the butchers for a piece of sirloin after the dog walk and found myself stood next to Paul Brown who played 'Malcolm,' in the seminal late eighties/early nineties sitcom Watching. He was having the butcher coat some lamb leg steaks in minty sauce.
And finally Neil Fitzmaurice of Phoenix Nights and Peep Show fame sitting on the steps to the beach at Caldy watching the sunset.
Apologies for previously posting this as a Small Blue. Thanks to Phil Lowe - see comment below for correcting me.
Apologies for not being on here much in the last week... work and family life been busy and I've got man flu also so been heading off to bed early.
I took some time today to process a couple of shots though which I'll post through this week. The first being from a stormy day at Seacliff Beach in East Lothian. The waves where the most powerful I've seen there and made shooting quite tricky as a dull day and lots of white made exposure quite challenging!
Apologies to the Mamas and the Papas for appropriating their lyrics. The missing punctuation isn't a typo; this is part of a fine stand of palms along the main street in Winters, CA, west of Sacramento.
It is beautiful. A view of the island of Salina from the neighbouring island of Lipari. Bougainvillea are in full blossom and Prickly Pear ready to be harvested. The Aeolian Islands north of Sicily are volcanic (Stromboli is still very active) and volcanic products such as Obsidian, a kind of black glass, have been exported from Lipari since Neolithic times (Obsidian was shaped into knives before metals were mined).
Apologies for all the Woodie pics but I do love photographing them !
Looked out my old Nikon 200-500mm lens and it appears its working ok which is handy
Apologies to Rimsky-Korsakov. When I was down at Commonwealth lake last weekend, I was practicing flight captures (it was pretty good light, so I could shoot faster than most days around here). Saw this bufflehead take off, and managed to get it in focus before it landed, but unfortunately after it'd already passed.
'Apology' was inspired by two things:
One being one of my favorite poses by Be My Mannequin? which is 'Viva La Vida.' I love the pose's sit and the fact that the hands can hold lots of objects (flowers, crowns, food, or anything you want!) to make your own picture unique!
You can find 'Viva La Vida' and may other unique poses at the main store or Marketplace of Be My Mannequin?. So go check it out and be amazed like I am!
~~~
The second inspiration came from a viral internet post that went around a while ago. According to dailybreak.com, Reddit user N7_Nate snapped a picture of a man riding a subway with a Hot n' Ready pizza and flowers who appeared nervous. I'm sure many of you remember it. There were many negative comments about that man on the subway, saying he was lame and should have gotten something better.
That picture inspired me because seriously? Who the hell do you think you are to say something negative about that man? At least he is doing SOMETHING where a lot of partners don't even have the curtesy to say "Sorry" or even if he was going with a gift for the sake of giving a gift, maybe his partner loves pizza and would adore flowers. Half the people out there wouldn't go half as far for their partners.
Don't judge a book by its cover. Who are you to judge? Sometimes its all someone can do. Sometimes its just the small gestures that make the biggest impact.

With apologies to Tennessee Williams and his play A Streetcar Named Desire for renaming this bird. The full name of this beauty needed shortening—at least in our house—and the three to five Steller's Jays that now frequent the back forty don't seem to mind.
Love the feathery underside (there’s a technical term for that area, I’m sure ;-)
Thank you, Don Delaney, for ‘…feathery under tail coverts.’ Such a good birder and virtual friend.
Bliss.

Apologies for my lack of commenting. Our son moves out this weekend and our daughter and partner move back home next weekend after giving up their flat to go travelling! So it's Mum and Dad removal services to the rescue!!
Have a good weekend everyone and thanks for all the lovely comments on my images.
One of my favourite songs ever
Apologies again for not being very active. I have a lot of assessment deadlines this month so I won't be around very much...
Hope you're having a great Sunday!
Apologies for the overload of Trevose Head Lighthouse photos but whilst I was walking around the headland I hurt me bleddy knee. At the moment I aint going know where for a few days.
Apologies for being a bit AWOL recently, busy times!
Many thanks for all the lovely comments and faves on my images; they are very much appreciated :)))
HBW!
Apologies for being behind but have been away and off again so will catch up as I can. Now that the tourists are gone we will camp till the rains come.
Apologies if you have seen this scene before but it is one of my favourite places for a photograph. The sunset at Knowle locks never disappoints.
Apologies for the enforced abscence - had all manner of computer problems, some of which affected image quality and hence a couple of posts had to be deleted. I would be interested in any feedback offered about how this looks on your screen, so feel free and be honest!
This is a shot of the low sun silhouetting one of my favourite trees at Croome. The shadows were terrific, and I hope you like them too.
I'll try to catch up with what has been going on over the next few days.
Apologies to me German speaking buds, but I just had to.
Pillar Point Harbor, just north of Half Moon Bay, California.
A loose copy of Cezanne's masterpiece, "The Card Players". My version is in acrylics on canvas board. The original in the Musée d'Orsay, Paris is one of a series of five painted in the 1890s.
Although copying is said to be the lowest form of art, it teaches immense respect for the original artist. Cezanne had difficulties with figures, especially unclothed, yet he had a masterly grasp of expression and body language. We know who is in control of this game!
He models in his characteristic reds and greens. He textures individual planes with small whorls of colour. Depth is aided by subtle moves in colour temperature and value. Cezanne jerks reality with slightly quirky alterations of perspective. Edges glow, light and dark interplay. He could paint!
Apologies for being awol, a lovely, busy Christmas seeing lots of family and friends.
Thanks for all the lovely comments and faves on my images over the past year. They are very much appreciated.
Apologies for my attempt at a humorous film related title.
Not as sharp as I would have liked, my excitement at having this Barn Owl heading straight towards me and using my monopod probably contributed, in hindsight could have increased the shutter speed and ISO - hindsight is a wonderful thing.
The other thing I can blame is having spent 2 and a half hours at the dentist earlier in the day, so probably still suffering from PTSD.
Anyway - if you don't zoom in too much it doesn't look too bad! :-)
Apologies for the messy background, but beggars can't be choosers. Here we have a male and a female Orange Tip butterfly, a spider lurking underneath them and if you squint you might just be able to pick out the Orange Tip's orange egg just to the left of the spider. The flower is Cardamine pratensis or common name Cuckooflower.
Apologies it is all owls at the moment, this is turning into a bit of a Winter obsession as usual!
I will try and get out and about later in the week and attempt to photograph something different.
Thanks again for looking, & your comments/favourites are always appreciated.
Apologies for the picture quality but the weather was rapidly deteriorating - light was fading fast with clouds surrounding me.
When exploring the area surrounding the Crimpiau, the nearby higher Snowdonia peaks were all covered by low cloud. Even at this level, cloud and rain were returning - so I soon had to make a quick and safe exit to lower ground.
One mile further distant, from the previous stream image posted earlier, I'd reached the head of Nat y Geuallt, in better weather, which is a narrow pass dropping down to Llyn Crafnant - pictured below. There's also a left fork path that climbs steadily up the Crimpiau's Eastern flank until reaching the summit 475m (1,558ft) - from which this view of Llyn Crafnant was taken.
It's three quarter's of a mile long and lies in a beautiful valley where the Northern edge of the Gwdir Forest meets the lower slopes of the Carneddau mountains.
It's certainly a stunning view despite the adverse weather. I will definitely return!
Apologies to me German speaking buds, but I just had to.

I posted the color version a few months ago, but I like the B&W too.
