Capturing Virginia Beach from the air with the DJI Mavic Pro 3. Aerial imaging and photography by Dan Oshier Productions.
All outdoor shoots are on hold...the irish weather is wet to say the least...I'm hoping the weekend will be drier...miss the summer!!
Yes, we've captured and released 16 Raccoons, and perhaps 5 Opossums.
As the new houses go up, the wildlife that can escape heads our way first since we've a nice wooded lot.
Pity the wildlife that cannot escape like turtles, lizards, snakes, and fledglings still in the nest.
But we do what we can.
If you're photographing in color you show the color of their clothes
If you use black and white, you will show the color of their soul

This image completely disappeared from my Stream, from all the groups and even my Flickr Flower Album. I posted it on 31 August 2018. The disappearance was brought to my attention by one of the group administrators before I could pick it up myself. Whoever can rig election campaigns, will surely be able to steal my Cape Daisies. Must be the Russians :-D
P.S. It even disappeared from my Stats and all the groups it belonged to are accepting it again. The photo's DNA, so to say, has been wiped off Flickr and the Cape Daisies must be floating in cyber space somewhere!
Second round- best viewed enlarged.
Captured during our night photography workshops in Bodie State Historic Park, California. We'll be back in the park on October 4-5, 2014.
Captured in Portland's Irvington neighborhood for Bench Monday. HBM everyone! Edited and framed with Ribbet.
I came upon this couple being photographed in Westminster Square and thought this would make a great picture, luckily they repeated this shot giving me enough time to capture the moment of the girl lifting the guy into the air. I have now done a selective colour version of this picture www.flickr.com/photos/84768790@N05/12432630644/ see what you think!
German officers inspect a captured British aircraft, a B.E. 12 serial number 6547 (?), in a hanger. An early fighter that was considered unsuccessful almost from the start and was withdrawn from service in France by March 1917. Thanks to Bett and Alan we can see the information about this B.E.12 as reflected below in their comments.
It's always fascinating to see a spacecraft approaching us, launched from Earth a few days ago, meeting us up here in the middle of nowhere at 28.000 km/h. Amazing technology. Congrats JAXA for successfully starting the HTV7 mission!
Jedes Mal faszinierend, ein sich näherndes Raumschiff zu sehen. Vor wenigen Tagen auf der Erde gestartet, und nun begegnet es uns im Nirgendwo, mit 28.000 km/h. Beeindruckende Technologie. Gratulation an JAXA für einen erfolgreichen Start der HTV7 Mission!

As September draws to a close, almost all the swallow species in the Northern Aegean region have already migrated to Africa, taking this year's young ones with them. I was fortunate once again to witness their graceful glides in the sky and the moments they fed their chicks. With incredible effort and dedication, they tirelessly raised their young, and by now, they may have already reached their long migration destination in North Africa, covering thousands of miles. Starting next month, we expect to see different species arriving in the Northern Aegean region.
This morning, I’m sharing two photos of a Juvenile Spotted Flycatcher and one of an Icterine Warbler. I hope you like them. I especially enjoyed capturing the moment with my 500mm lens and a 1.4 Nikon teleconverter, as the young warbler sat perched on a fig tree branch, eyeing its prey, surrounded by the dim but harmonious colors of the olive grove.
In a few weeks, my wife Kathy and I will also be migrating back to our home in England, where I’m looking forward to witnessing the red deer rut in Bradgate Park. I hope we meet again soon.
Icterine Warbler (Hippolais icterina) is a small, insectivorous passerine bird that belongs to the Acrocephalidae family. It is typically found in open woodlands, forest edges, parks, and gardens. Characterized by its yellowish-green upperparts and paler, often yellowish, underparts, this species also features a relatively large, pointed bill and a distinctive strong song, which includes a variety of trills and mimicked sounds from other birds. The name "Icterine" comes from the Greek word "ikteros," meaning yellow, which refers to the bird’s coloration.
Habitat and Range
The Icterine Warbler breeds across Europe and into western parts of Asia. It prefers temperate climates and is often found in habitats with dense shrubs, trees, and abundant insect life. During the breeding season, it nests in low vegetation or bushes, constructing a small cup-shaped nest where it lays 4 to 5 eggs.
Migration
This species is a long-distance migrant, spending the breeding season in Europe and migrating to sub-Saharan Africa for the winter. They typically start their migration in late summer or early autumn and return to Europe around late spring.
Diet
The Icterine Warbler primarily feeds on insects such as flies, beetles, caterpillars, and spiders, but it also consumes small berries and fruits when available. Its diet shifts according to the season and availability of food sources.
Distribution in Turkey
In Turkey, the Icterine Warbler is mostly seen during its migration periods. It does not breed extensively in Turkey but passes through during the spring and autumn migrations, particularly in western and northern regions of the country, including the Aegean and Marmara regions. Birdwatchers often spot them in woodlands, olive groves, and rural gardens during their migratory stopovers. The species’ presence in Turkey is generally fleeting as it is on its way to or from its wintering grounds in Africa.
I've captured some memorable moments with my camera, and I genuinely hope you'll experience the same joy in viewing these images as I did in capturing them.
