Week 25 in 52 Weeks for Dogs. I've been meaning to do a 'bucket list' for Taivas for quite some time. She is a dog who has missed her vocation in life, to herd anything that moves. I wish I'd set up a better backdrop but yet again, I was up against the time, having left her shot until Sunday.
The annular eclipse passed over my home. This photo is of the ring of fire as it passed through a colander (left) and a pinhole in paper (right). Interestingly, the total eclipse will also pass right over my home in April 2024, so we are sort of in a cosmic x.
I certainly hope it sends some good juju my way. It seems now that I've made it through cancer my lumbar disks are failing and I'm having back surgery next week. These disks have served me well through years of rolling kayaks in whitewater, backpacking, jumping horses over obstacles, hauling water, digging in the garden so I can't blame them for giving up. But I can't ignore the numbness and pain in my legs any longer.
Recently I read an article about when you age you should not only have a bucket list, but also a chuck it list. I realize that some of my activities are now going onto the chuck it list. But fortunately my photography and art will continue and maybe even become more of a focus. During my recovery I intend to work on some of my older photos to share with you.
Burg Eltz. I've seen so many amazing photos of this place here on Flickr - so I couldn't wait to go here. Would have looked amazing in fog, snow or in Autumn...none of which you get in June!

This image is the result from the second attempt. The first one, 7 years ago, stranded in the mist. Zero visibility. So last year I was relieved with the perfect weather conditions. But we didn't know about the Chinese holiday week. HK was overcrowded, the line for the Peaktram took us almost two hours. And around blue hour the viewing platform was packed. So no use of tripod. I was lucky to be 6'4" with long arms. So reaching the camera over the crowd I was able to shoot my bracketed exposures. Yes, I had my bucketlist-shot in the pocket! For now:
Enjoy!

There aren't many people stupid / daft / crazy enough to stand in a 40mph wind with a windchill factor of about -12 degrees C in the middle of nowhere shooting traffic trails in the dark. But Tim Gamble and I are those idiots.
Shot in one exposure, this was lit entirely by moonlight and a passing car. We did try one or two shots with me driving up and down the hill with a LED Lenser X21r2 strobing in the back of the car but it appeared a bit overexposed and somewhat dangerous driving back up the hill again!!

We extended our stay in Dublin with a tour to Northern Ireland. Three hours drive north brought us to one of the most stunning scenes I've ever witnessed. No wonder that the location-scouts for "Lord of the Rings" and "Game of Thrones" used this place as a filming location for there fairytale movies.
The 250 year old Beechtrees must have been part of a hedge and due to lack of maintenance grew like they do now.
Downside to the popularity of this place is the large amount of visitors, which makes it almost impossible to take an image without people in it. I admit that in PS I removed one couple and their photographer from this image.
This bucketlist-location was definitely worth a visit.
Enjoy!

On the way to the stand after landing on RWY25R inbound from Moscow SVO. The Aeroflot retro was on my bucketlist for quiet a while. Delivered 05/2013.
When Icelandair B757-23N TF-FIC arrived in Shannon today the Pan Am colours had ben replaced with "Bucketlist Experiences" titles and logo - these are on the port side only.
A very famous spot for land- and cityscape photographers in the Netherlands is this arrangement of colorful harbour houses in Groningen. But since I'm not from around this image has been on my bucketlist for quite some time. Last weekend we were on our way to Eemshaven and I finally had the opportunity to take this image of Reitdiep. My way: It was a sunny day with lots of clouds. Adding a 10 stop ND filter plus a circular polarisation-filter on top of each other I achieved my long exposure for a smooth water surface plus some motion in the sky. The sun brings out all the bright colors of the Scandinavian-looking houses.
I am contented with the result (although I loved a little more movement in the clouds) but hey....: there should always be reason for improvement.
For the rest..........
Enjoy!

Yosemite National Park is the finest jewel in the entire park system. It is a crime that funding is being cut in half to preserve our parks and environment during the past 2 years. Visit this wonder of nature and let it seduce you and bless your body and soul. Then make a financial contribution to your national parks, or join the Sierra Club or Nature Conservancy or all 3 . Save and preserve for future generations. That is a goal with being a small but important part of. (This is the lower falls taken in early May one of the best times to see the park.

Seen at the Cincinnati Art Museum while visiting the "Burning Man" exhibit a while back. Caretakers wipe it clean every week or so. Makes one stop and examine the postings. A lot to take in...from funny to very serious. Thought provoking.
Loaded full with cargo the ship Thistlegorm lies on the bottom of Red Sea. A really fun dive. Have you been there?

Some coronavirus humor, to keep my spirits up, and maybe yours. Should such humor be called "ventilating?"
If the term "bucket list" is not familiar to you, see:

CLICK 1X or 2X to explore zinc galvanization of the bucket,
dead bugs on the lid and pretty little spring flowers.
IF YOU ARE STILL READING, here are three important things to know about my bucket and my bucket list:
1. It is a small bucket. This is because my list is a short one.
2. I do not lock the bucket.
(a) This allows anyone who finds it a chance to add to my list. This is potentially an interesting innovation.
(b) This allows anyone to steal the list if they want. This has the potential to save me time and money that I might devote to a better cause.
3. The bucket is not secured in place, and it is next to a secluded public path. This means that anyone who needs a bucket worse than I do can take it without fear of consequences.
Location: A secluded public path, Riehen BS Switzerland.

April 8, 2024 - Diamond Ring at the Solar Eclipse Totality, as seen and photographed from Trinity Overlook Park in Dallas, Texas, during the Total Solar Eclipse! This was a Bucket List Photo Shoot and Experience for me! The clouds were thick on Eclipse Day, but thank God for answered prayers, as the clouds moved away and gave us an amazing sight with the Total Solar Eclipse totality!
Hiking 1 237 steps up to this place in 38°C heat. But as always, those things are worth it! Love this place!
Moutmarka, Tjøme, Vestfold, Norway.
This mesmerizing place with an enormous scenery, is a perfect place to be when the sun takes a break.
Over 600 balloons launch in the early morning at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta - the largest balloon event in the world. Each balloon is given a small spot to set up. They are arranged in rows and launch quickly. It's a miracle they don't crash into each other. Here are 3 balloons in formation right after taking off.
