After reading numerous bits of advice about water drop photography, I decided to try my hand at it. Over one hundred photos later, I found that I had captured this floral water drop as it headed for a splash landing. Although I've tried to replicate this exact experience, it will have to remain in my heart and mind. I suppose that is what is beautiful about life. Every event is rather special in its own way. It's interesting how photography can turn one into a philosopher.
Rocky ridge hidden in the forest shows its teeth. And makes a nice scenery with all that spring fresh green. A bit of a moss, a bit of a trees, a bit of a rock.
Whilst horse riding through Thingvellir national park in Iceland we reached a point on the trail where the horses can stop to have a drink before crossing this ice cold river! With the air temperature around -5 celsius it shows how well adapted these horses really are!

Things have been a bit manic in the last two weeks, but I finally got the opportunity to get out and hobble to the Woods to catch the "wild garlic" before they get past there sell-by date.
The aroma of garlic as I got out of the car was unbelievably strong, with it being a still evening. I managed to get a little late light to filter through the woods and came away with some nice shots. This is the path leading into the woods, which I thought was worthy of a post! My left leg is still badly swollen and painful but the exercise walking around this enchanted woodland was great therapy.
Bit of a Wader day at Titchwell & Thornham on Sunday which is always a bit of a treat for us land locked Bedfordshire birders :-)
A bit of a Marmite shot, prompted by something I heard on the radio this morning about fatigue and general malaise brought on over the past two + years of Lockdown, It's claimed that people are either fatigued as a result of catching Covid, or possibly too much time in front of a screen causing 'information overload' as I know it , not getting out in the fresh air to exercise, to name a few things. As for me, I could sink my head into such a pillow and sleep for days on end for the simple reason that I'm using leg muscles that I haven't used in two and a half years.

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.
I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO

Does the little bit on the end of this shell look like a little shell eye to you too?
I like to think that there is a whole little world inside with little shell creatures looking at live feeds from the "eye" on little TV screens, analysing response tactics to the environment on their little shell computers, initiating their outer shell of silence until any potential danger has passed, and then cheering and jumping about and giving each other little shell creature high-fives. That little hole in the spirals under the eye is their emergency escape hatch I reckon. In an emergency, the ConchChime goes off and they throw a little shell creature ladder out the hole and make their escape while whatever they are escaping from is busy at the main entrance. There may have been a little hero shell creature stay behind to distract whoever they were escaping from, maybe named the Coral Crusader. I hope he/she made it out safely! Must be a tough life being a little shell creature, I'm exhausted just thinking about it!
PS - I like shells, but then again, who doesn't!
A bit surreal looking as the traffic mostly vanished as a result of the 90 second exposure at dusk. It was a fun one to shoot with the kit lens, 10 stop ND filter, and Hoya HD3 Polarizer combination.
Although just an f4 lens, it really performs especially when stopped down some and it is light weight and handy. The sun was actually setting further to the left but a nice glow flowed on down along the Olympic Mountains. Summer is best for sunsets directly behind the bridge but this was a lovely evening.
Many thanks for your warm and kind visits my dear flickr friends and family - you are the best! 💙

Red afternoon winter sun, one frozen horizon, some rivers and stream were only semi frozen as we had some warmer days above zero.
The bit of water breaks the monotony of the snow on the flat plain.
A bit hazy when I got to the top of the viewpoint. Pretty nice looking view though. I would later be walking over to the monkey hill on the left of picture by the coast
Having FUN . . .
If Taylor Swift sees this, she'll do a double take for sure!
Her summer cottage is in the picture, but a bit distorted,
just for kicks!
A bit of cloud iridescence, appears in thin clouds over Sour Lake on the Mud Volcano trail on the edge of Yellowstone National Park’s Hayden Valley. Sour Lake is a thermal lake fed by hot springs. The pastel colors in the cirrus clouds, called cloud iridescence, or irisation, appears when sunlight is diffracted through small drops of water or ice that make up the clouds. Each tiny droplet deflects the light individually. Although this iridescence may remind the observer of rainbow the two phenomena have different causes. A rainbow appears when light is refracted by moisture in the atmosphere. This refraction breaks the light down into a visible spectrum creating a rainbow.
Cloud iridescence, on the other hand, appears when the suns ray are deflected (ie; bent or distorted) as they pass through the tiny water droplets. The iridescent spots appear behind the clouds such as the cirrus clouds in this photo. Cloud iridescence tends to be short-lived but on this day it persisted for 15 minutes while I walked up the trail the Sour Lake.
A bit of sunshine would have made this a nice shot, always another day though...
Many thanks to you ALL for the views, faves and comments you make on my shots it is very appreciated.
Just feeling a bit lazy this morning and somehow that's when a floral photo appeals to me. Not my favorite subject for photos because I just never think my florals are all that great. I generally don't like cut flowers because they're not living. Animals, birds, and flowers should be viewed and enjoyed alive. After all, that's when they are most beautiful!
