Loch Lomond, Scotland.

   

beautiful winter afternoon at loch lomond, attracted by the light, and the layers of the silhouetted hills.

Stop for a little bit, take a deep breath and lay on the ground. Your inner peace is within nature and its rhythm, so why not admire, appreciate and contemplate all the beauty that surrounds and nourishes us?!

In modern zoos, very often thick panes of glass are used to separate the animals from the visitors, thus allowing both to get very close to each other. For photographers this is not necessarily a good thing because depending on the kind of glass that was used as well as its thickness, this can cause severe focussing issues for camera, as you can see in this photo.

I have taken dozens of images of this bonobo and got only three that were actually usable (but still far from perfect). But the facial expressions of this guy are quite cool, so I decided to post them anyway.

 

Enjoy!

"Contemplate the Name yourself; inspire it to others;

By attending to it, discoursing of it, living by it, obtain liberation.

The true essence, eternal is the Lord's Name:

By spontaneous devotion, says Nanak, chant the Lord's praise."

(Guru Granth Sahib Adi Granth)

 

This image was shot last Friday at the Gurdwara Bangla Sahib which is located near Connaught Place in Delhi.

It was at sunset, those two young men were praying facing the Temple.

I took several pictures that I showed them after.

I tried to make the best of the sunny weather today and went to a local park hoping for some signs of spring. Of course I took my camera although because of my shoulder problem this wasn't a brilliant idea. I used a lighter zoom lens instead of my usual lenses but that didn't make much difference. Somehow I managed a few photos, not so much of flowers (there were only crocus and a few daffodils) but of the animals there. In many occasions I missed my longer and better telezoom lens but the mere weight would kill me at the moment. The lighter lens was okay for taking some shots of the Canada geese though as they allowed me to get quite close.

To contemplate is to look at shadows.

A headshot, kind of.

First time I've seen this orange-spotted ladybug. The length of this wee ladybug is about 3.0 to 4.0 mm.

What a freaking nightmare this year turned out to be. 9/23/20

This was taken at West Angle Bay last night while out with some photographer friends. The rocks there make great photos. Amazing colours and shapes. I didn't realise I'd caught Ben sitting and pondering his next masterpiece until I looked at the shots later.
