This image of a handsome Mandarin Duck was captured in an urban park somewhere in London. Although this particular duck was free-living, his relative fearlessness probably meant he interacted regularly with humans.
This species of duck is native to Eastern Asia (China, Japan and Russia), where they are now rare, although a large and thriving introduced population can be found in the British Isles and Western Europe, with additional smaller introductions in North America.
The Mandarin Duck is a very rare winter visitor to Hong Kong. Over the last five years of constant searching, I’ve only ever managed to see a single wild pair in Hong Kong.
Thank you for your interest, views, faves, comments and awards ! This image was captured in London, UK 英國倫敦. (Better viewed on a larger screen.)

I captured this rare visitor to Michigan last Saturday evening. I had heard a bunch of rumbling while I was at work that one had showed up at the beach in one of our local metro parks. When I got off work, me and my wife went to mass and after words headed over to the park. We located him out on the beach. He allowed me to photograph him without being spooked for a little bit. I spent about 10 min rattling off a bunch of images and then left him alone. Figured he needed some food and rest for the rest of his journey.
He was standing just on shore when this little wave came in and splashed off of him.
(Catching up as I been working 65+ hours a week for a while now)
Conestoga Lake is half hour driving from home. The relative larger lake nearby. I went there quite often to shoot the sunset, it is a quiet and peaceful place, people kayaking, paddling, fishing, boating… Light was not perfect every day, it was different every time. This photo captured the people kayaking and fishing under the orange sun rays…
Photographers on stage at graduation from The Haas School of Business at UC, Berkeley the day my daughter received her MBA.
I was delighted to have Lisa, red stilletto and family stay with me over New Year, it was wonderful to bring in 2021 with them.
Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.

I've shot this place before, but due to the limitations of the 35mm lens I had to get it from the side. Returning with the Ricoh GR and re-shooting I was able to get the shot I originally wanted and capture all of its decrepit glory :-)

Capture made in the rocky Snow Range in Wyoming.
In Bloomfield NJ, out in the yard the sky had a purple hue above the warm hue of the sunset to the west that I captured as I took Mr Snuggles my dog out to do his business. That’s one of the things I love about sunrises and sunsets, you never quite know how God is going to paint the sky at any particular location and at any particular time. - [ ] #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @apple #excellent_america @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @newjerseysunsetskies @newjerseyisntboring @newjerseyisbeautiful @tiffencompany @adorama @omsystem.cameras #sunsets

Another image captured using the "Raw Burst" pre-capture mode. If the bird is not moving forward quickly, and you are not panning with the camera quickly, you can avoid the rolling shutter distortion.
Captured in November 2020 in the Japanese Garden in Portland, with a film era Pentax FA 43mm/F1.9 Limited lens. (K1BD2106)

A Sheila
~Boofhead~
My friend's a bit freaky and quirky it seems,
a snapper of photos and artistic dreams.
She talks to wombats and strange ones unseen,
A world of her own, but to me she's a queen.
At first, I admit, I was somewhat surprised,
By her hidden talents that soon crystalised.
Her intellect shines, but her heart is unique
a full treasure-chest. Humanity's peak.
Weird she may be, but I think it's fine,
a special uniqueness in one grand design.
Conform to the World? Hah! No freaking way.
But don't tell HER this. Now where's my latte.

The image captures a realistic scene, but its intense blue-gray tones and hazy effect deviate from its objective documentary nature, creating a surreal or poetic atmosphere.
The solitary figure and desolate scene in the photograph create a strong subjective mood, leaving the viewer with a sense of mystery, loneliness, or provocation, echoing the emphasis on personalization and irrationality in "anti-photos."
This atmosphere is achieved through the use of color, light, and composition, elevating the photograph beyond simple documentary function to become a work of art with powerful emotional and conceptual expression.
Photographed by Liu Wanching in Inner Mongolia, China, 2013🌸
影像捕捉了現實場景，但強烈的藍灰色調和朦朧效果使其偏離了客觀紀實的本質，創造出一種超現實或詩意的氛圍。
照片中的孤獨人影和荒涼場景，營造出一種強烈的主觀情緒，讓觀者感受到一種神秘、孤獨或挑釁的感覺，這與「反照片」中強調個人化和非理性的表達方式相呼應。
這種氛圍的營造是透過色彩、光線和構圖等手法實現的，這些手法讓照片超越了單純的紀錄功能，成為一種具有強烈情感和觀念表達的藝術作品。
