If there's one place that consistently takes my breath away, it'd be Cley, of course. This was a difficult shot because I was shooting into the sun. The bench looks very grand. It has a fabulous view over the marshes.

I originally posted this one privately to our weekly theme challenge group, but several of the members suggested I post it publicly, so here it is.... very different from anything I've ever done before.
I had a hard time with this one...I had the idea in my head but couldn't quite execute it the way I wanted to. And of course, it was my husband to the rescue again - in the shape of his hand :)
I used a tripod so the camera wouldn't shake with the slower shutter in the dark room. I turned off all the lights and closed the doors and just used a phone flashlight behind his hand, which he is holding with his other hand.
Those of you who have already seen this and commented, please ignore :)
Otmoor, Oxfordshire, UK. This is a reprocessed version of a shot taken in strong backlit sun that I uploaded during the summer. I've reprocessed it for a softer high key approach which came from my approach to processing a barn owl photographed under similar conditions (I'll post that in the next few days). I think this is much better than my more high contrast B&W initial attempt - this is almost ethereal and gentle, and something different. Not to everyone's taste of course!
Ezekiel 35:8-9 “And I will fill his mountains with his slain. In thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy water-courses shall they fall that are slain with the sword. I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not be inhabited: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.”

As we drove around 17-Mile-Drive on the Monterey Peninsula of California, we passed by this green on a golf course on the Pacific Ocean. The vegetation in the rough on this par 3 looked unforgiving.

..."The time is with the month of winter solstice
when the change is due to come
thunder in the other course of heaven
things cannot be destroyed once and for all
change returns success
going and coming without error
action brings good fortune
sunset, sunrise"...

BNSF vehicle train V TACLPC1 24F punches through the solid basalt hole known as Drano Tunnel (Tunnel #2) near Cook, WA, in the Columbia River Gorge. Drano Tunnel is the first of five tunnels the train will pass thorugh in the next 3 miles as it and parallel Washington Route 14 navigate the narrow confines of land crammed between the northern bank of the Columbia River and numerous rock formations, lakes, and steep slopes. CREX 1206 is working rear-end DPU duty, shoving hard to get the autoracks rolling at track speed after holding for Amtrak on the fast-paced and heavily utilized Fallbridge Subdivision.

Located in Central Florida's Polk County, Willowbrook's well-manicured layout in a natural setting combines mature trees, water hazards, bunkers and doglegs to challenge the experts, yet provides plenty of opportunities for pars and birdies. Willowbrook's natural setting affords players the opportunity to see a variety of wildlife, including alligators, herons, cranes, foxes, ibises and many more of Florida's natural inhabitants.

This was taken a few years ago and of course it’s another glimpse of the landscape that is around and close to the village. It is a treat to my eyes.

Purple Gallinule - this species of bird is usually found in South-eastern US, Mexico and Central and South America. On a trip back from Montreal I received news that this bird was spotted on the shores of the St. Lawrence river in Eastern Ontario. After a couple of hours of looking we almost gave up and as we were leaving the bird presented himself first by foraging in the shoreline banks, I'm not quite sure what he was after, and then in the shrubs for wild grapes. Apparently there was enough food to sustain him even in the colder climate as he was fairly active. Unfortunately it was late in the day and I only had a couple of minutes with him before he scurried back into the brush.

On the south side of the MacRitchie Reservoir is a rather plush looking golf course. We saw some very pretty looking birds here but they were far too shy to have their picture taken sadly
In the Spring, Summer and Autumn of 1732 young Linnaeus trraveled in Lapland on the coasts of the Gulf of Bothnia on foot or by horse. He was interested in the culture and customs of the various peoples but especially, of course, in plants. An extensive account and enumeration of the plants he collected is his Flora Lapponica (1737).
Linnaeus gives various 'heather-like' plants the generic name 'Andromeda'. He found them in boggy areas between rocks and boulders. Andromeda is for the classical beauty Andromeda, chained naked to a rock on the coast of Ethiopia until she's rescued by Perseus. Hence Linnaeus' name.
In the new section for carnivorous plants in the Hortus is this Andromeda polifolia, which, says Linnaeus, grows in the colder bogs of Europe. The English 'Rosemary' is for the rosemary-like foliage. In The Netherlands it's rare in the wild and on the so-called Red List of endangered plants.

Those who know the way I play golf would expect a round with me to be colourful. My attitude is all or nothing which almost always results in a rather poor score. Occasionally it can also result in the use of some colourful language as well.
Thankfully the nature of my play during todays round of golf wasn't the only colourful aspect of the game. There were superb displays of fly agaric mushrooms to be found throughout the course. This particular one must have been nine inches in diameter.
