Bardolino, Lago di Garda, tramonto, ieri pomeriggio.
Autoritratto di spalle al cospetto di due cieli riflessi l'uno nell'altro... che toglievano il fiato con la loro bellezza.

HBM! A small park near the waterfront Recreational Trail, seen on my walk with a friend yesterday.
Best seen large by clicking on the photo. Thanks for visiting, enjoy each day.
Tofu under one of the Acers in the garden ! Yes, I know, I take photos of him there quite often but think he looks good there and his blue eyes and the acer leaves are an appealing combination. The Acers are shedding their leaves now anyway and over the next months the most appealing combination will probably be Tofu and his blankets again ...
We visited Myers Beach on the Oregon coast as the sun was going down. There is an arch in one of the huge sea stacks. Even at low tide water still flows through the hole in the rock. This spot is popular for wedding shoots as while we visited, two parties arrived for photographs. This couple and their photographer were trying to figure out how deep they needed to wade into the waves to get the shot they wanted. Knee deep would be best at this stage. The bride was hesitant.

I spent the morning looking after Roxy and had lunch with Abby and Rachel. I came home earlier than usual to give Roxy's Nana a chance to play with her before Elsie comes out of school. One gran at a time is enough for any baby! I took the opportunity to go to Grovelands. I haven't been for ages. The sun shone weakly, intermittently and I enjoyed walking in the woods particularly.
I watched this man walk towards me, pass me and then took this photo as he walked away. I don't imagine he noticed me.
Dad, I'm feeling blue today. My life is already half over.
"But Clancy, blue is such a lovely colour."
Everything has to be so jokey with you.
"Look, if it's any consolation, my life expectancy is two-thirds over."
But you'll probably still be around another 30 years while I'll be lucky to last another seven.
"Hey, seven is a lucky number!"
One of these days snap, right on the ankle.
"Okay, I get it. I suggest you try to stop worrying about what you can't change, and concentrate on enjoying the time you have left. It's all there is, and you shouldn't waste it."
I wasn't worried about me, I was worried about you! Who would make you feel like a whole day at work is worth it just to get the greeting I give you when you get home? Who would walk you and wrestle for a ball with you? Who would scare off the coyotes when you use the telescope? Sit beside you when you watch football? Have a bonfire?
But you know, what you said makes sense. I'm going to try and stop worrying so much about you and live the time we have left to the fullest!
Thanks, Dad, I feel better.
"You're welcome. Now move over, I'm suddenly feeling blue myself."

Have a peaceful start to your week... :)
Outside the Station Inn at Ribblehead, this chap stands quietly contemplating whatever is occupying his mind. He must have been deep in thought, as it took a few moments for the passing Northern Class 158 to distract him as it rolled across the viaduct and into Ribblehead Station, working a Carlisle–Leeds service.
I decided to convert the image to monochrome, as there were so many distracting colours in the scene. I think the simplicity of black and white helps draw the eye towards the man and his moment of contemplation, while the railway provides a secondary focus.

Berries? Fish? Or plain gras? It's a tough choice ...

Another long break due to work commitments and the unpredictability of the British weather (its not every year that you have snow in April in the South of England after all...). Weather seemed very nice and the tides were ideal for Kimmeridge Bay in Dorset (www.visit-dorset.com/things-to-do/attractions/kimmeridge-...) so I decided to drive the 2+ hours it takes to get there. This is a very popular location and another 9 photographers were "competing" for the best rock to stand on. I have a thing for green stuff growing on rocks and the rock in the middle of the frame automatically attracted my eye. Beautiful golden light, nice blue water but not enough cloud for my liking. I was expecting a nicer sunset but had to compromise. After so many years with my D300s I am still getting used to D810 but I have to say I am very impressed with the sharpness of the images.
Thanks for taking the time to look at my image
