Spotted during a walk, horses and sheep enjoying a glimpse of a poor December sun. Weert, 16th december 2020.
Back to watching for the pigeons today; he did manage to bonk his head twice trying to get to the birds, so at east he's having... fun?
Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.

Cause the western strong wind the "Sant'Angelo piazzetta" is désert. Only a brave dog in the street.
I took a double take when I saw these in the car park, blackberries in December ...
Better viewed large.
Thank you for your favourites. :O)

And from this morning, a rather amazing sky. I was so tempted -when I woke up in the dark - to roll over and go back to sleep, but forced myself to get out of bed and go and do what I knew I would enjoy once I got there! I'm not good at leaving the house without breakfast - and time runs away with me if I'm not careful, but I did manage to get to the coast path about half an hour before the sun came up. My sunrise photos are not worth sharing, but I like the simplicity of this, from a little bit later on.
Yesterday afternoon, while finishing up from filling the feeders, as I was entering the house through the basement patio door, I spotted this little Anole lizard clinging onto the bottom panel of the screen door - on the inside of the door.
At first, due to the very pale color and location, I thought it was a leaf that had gotten stuck on a cobweb, but when I reached to clear it off. I realized it was an anole! Not sure if it was still alive I touched the tail and it moved.
Uh oh! What's a lizard doing out in December? I thought they hibernated when the temperature started dropping, and we've had some temps hitting the freezing mark off and on for the past few weeks.
So, I secured the screen door to keep the wind from slamming it shut and smashing our little visitor, hoping it would move along once it realized the coast was clear.
Then late last night, around midnight, I did a lizard check, and it had moved off the screen door and onto the door frame. *sigh*
Knowing we had freezing temps last night, first thing I did when I woke up this morning was a lizard check - and it was STILL there. We had to run some errands today, so after we got home early this afternoon, I did another lizard check. And it was STILL there!
Unfortunately, I now had to fill all the feeders and Goodie Bowls, going in and out the patio door - and it barely budged as I walked past it several times. Decided to get some shots to document this December Drama, hoping it would not jump off the doorframe and run into the house. Thankfully, it stayed put!
Finally, this evening before dark, I did another lizard check -- and it was gone! Whew! I hope it wandered back to its lair, to finish hibernating safe and sound until spring rolls around!
to be honest, this week was a struggle. i let the to-do lists go each day in favor of making time for me.
Yup, more holiday bokeh and fun. I'd apologize for the repetition but we only get to enjoy the warm holiday lights for so long each year so I'm going to enjoy it.
Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.

I thought this was the last I'd see of the sun for a while so I went for a walk with my boys down to the river to make the most of it. I'm praying they have the forecast wrong!
There were some overly friendly swans trying to eat my camera strap when I took this. I was more worried about my camera falling into the river than being pecked to death!
Suddenly the most atmospheric and lovely month of the year was here again (!) It doesn't feel long since I photographed my mom's Christmas decorations last year.
I have a really busy but fun start of the month, with lots of singing and concerts with my choir this week.
I hope all of you will have some nice early December days!

I'll say a word here about my fondness for rangefinder cameras. They're light and fast. One sets the exposure and focus before raising camera to eye, and the only thing between your eye and the scene is a bit of glass and the framelines. They bring a great deal of freedom, including the very liberating freedom from batteries!

to the right at the back under cover of the white fleece is the myrtle bush
for many years my garden was a shrubbery flic.kr/p/Lhv9ag which i loved. a picket fence covered in an ivy hedge coming down in a storm flic.kr/p/2gnCyih meant that over time changes had to happen flic.kr/p/2mn2x8a i'll be glad when the trellis is covered in honeysuckle and jasmine. that's the plan ...

Preoccupante l'assenza di neve nonostante sia dicembre inoltrato. Preoccupanti anche le temperature ben al di sopra della media.

December is off to it's regular gloomy start with snow soon to follow. Five exposure HDR processed with Nik HDR Efex Pro 2
After fighting the Zombie Nurse Intestinal Virus, I feel totally drained of ideas for photography. So I invited my friend Whit over to be in tonight's 365 shot. Thank goodness Whitney came, or this shot would have been really boring.
They say with a 365 project a photographer hits a wall of non-creativity. I've experienced that. Work, however, gives birth to inspiration. Sometimes we must simply press on. Thanks Whit, for giving me a few more minutes of your time tonight.
