and i had a similar cat comb aswell. :)
He was really amazing in his breeding plumage and ornated head gear. Managed to get a good portrait of him even when the back light was more brighter. Thanks.
This was one of those photo shoots where the photographer in me wanted to get right down next to the water....but this is saltwater crocodile territory. That would have been a very dumb idea! Thankfully I didn't tangle with any of the large reptiles. :)
as we went on holiday a couple of days after getting back from the Lakes in August, I had forgotten I hadn't posted photos. this is one of the few I got with a blue sky! it was a lovely walk above Windermere.
Brood comb with larvae of a variety of ages, from tiny little babies to ones almost ready to pupate. The flat-capped cells hold worker pupae (right) and the domed ones hold the larger drones (left). The cells at top are full of compressed pollen.
Last summer my mother noticed honeybees swarming around the shed in her backyard, so she called a beekeeper. They turned out to be nesting in the neighbor's shed, and the beekeeper said he could collect them but it would have to wait until spring so the colony would be strong enough to survive. This weekend he came with his girlfriend/assistant and extracted the colony. They marked out the colony location with an IR camera, sawed out that section of 3/4" plywood floor with a circular saw, lifted it out, and turned it upside down on a folding table. Then they disassembled it, comb by comb. The bees they vacuumed up, collecting them in a shopvac-head bucket for later return to the new hive. The honeycomb they harvested. The brood comb they placed in empty beehive frames, holding the pieces in place with rubber bands. They proceeded slowly, looking for the queen the whole time. Just when they were ready to give up, they found her in a remnant of comb back in the shed. The bees were amazingly docile, at least compared to what I had expected. Queen, bees, and comb were reunited in their new digs, a double-decker hive, and are off to a new life in the countryside. The floor was screwed back down, with the exit from the sub-floor airspace to the outside blocked by sprayfoam.

After a busy day it is time to relax. However, not before combing my hair. I like to have a neat hairdo at all times.

My first visit here. What a fantastic place. I got a bit lost and ended up getting there a bit late. By this time there were banks of fog rolling across the landscape. I only had around 15 minutes of shooting time. So I had to come up with compositions quickly. But I don't really mind that. I usually work quite quickly and explore different compositions. I know it's a fantastic view from up here but only parts of it it were revealed to me through the breaks in the fog. This gave it an otherworldly feel.
Another shot from the reading flickr meet.
Saw this great view as we walked along the river. It reminded me of a comb, and it looked like someone was combing the sky.
