Zion Canyon East Rim/Zion Park Blvd/Highway 9, Zion National Park, Utah, USA
Since I didn't have enough time at Zion, I went back to the park the next morning and drove back up the Zion Park Blvd in the East Rim before leaving for Vegas. I am glad I did. The light and shadows from the morning sunshine made this place look so majestic, and I was right in the middle of it.
Took this picture from the road on top. You can see how the road ascended from the depth of the canyon to the top where I was.
The mountains are much bigger than they appear in this picture. I used a super wide field of view at 10mm.

Candid street portrait taken in Glasgow, Scotland. I love getting the 'stink eye' from time to time, it lets me know that I am pushing the limits of candid capture and this man didn't disappoint.
Under the arches of the Ouse Valley Viaduct near Balcombe, West Sussex, UK.
Built in 1841, the Ouse Valley Viaduct (also called Balcombe Viaduct) over the River Ouse on the London-Brighton Railway Line in England north of Haywards Heath and south of Balcombe is 1,475 feet (450 m) long.
The viaduct is 96 feet (29 m) high and is carried on 37 semi-circular arches, each of 30 feet (9.1 m), surmounted by balustrades. Each pier contains a Jack arch with a semi-circular soffit to reduce the number of bricks required. At each end of the abutment is an ornamental square open tower, the brickwork of which is faced with stone from Heddon Quarries near Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The viaduct was designed by engineer for the line John Urpeth Rastrick in association with the architect of the London to Brighton railway, David Mocatta. It has been described as "probably the most elegant viaduct in Britain."
The viaduct was opened in July 1841. The 11 million bricks needed for its construction were shipped up the Ouse River (via Newhaven and Lewes) from the Netherlands. It cost £38,500 to build (equivalent to about £3½ million in 2014).
The structure is a Grade II* listed building and was restored in 1996 with grants from the Railway Heritage Trust and English Heritage. Matching stone was imported from France, to ensure a close match with the existing balustrades and pavilions.
The viaduct is still used, with around 110 trains per day passing over it on the Brighton Main Line.
I took this early one morning this week, it had been raining all night and had only just stopped. I liked the clouds and how the light was pouring onto the field so I had to stop and take a shot! As ever, feedback is always appreciated! Thanks
There's a short slot canyon tributary to Pleasant Creek, I made it up as far as I could.
Slots are known to be less-than-wonderful places to be during a rainstorm, this high-water mark shows this to be the same.

Would love to tell you his story but unfortunately all I've got is this photograph. Adrenaline was pumping and I couldn't even remember to ask for his name.
I would've preferred a little more depth of field but in the end I'm quite content with this as his stare is all that I want.
Stranger #4.

I've been feeling pretty beat up lately. Waiting around every corner is a smack in the face. I have questioned humanity, both individually and as a whole. It's been rough, and I won't say it's not getting me down or that it doesn't drain me. I am human, and so are you.
But what I discovered through it all, is at the end of my empathy. When it all seems so pointless, and so overwhelming, that with a little effort, with just a tip of the head, my perspective can change. That I am not set in my ways, nor am I flawless.
And suddenly, it's not all, "What is the world coming to's" and "WTF'S," but rather a depth of understanding that is limitless really. An ocean of forgiveness and acceptance for others, and for myself. I think I'll swim in it for awhile.
TULLAMORE D.E.W.
ORIGINAL IRISH WHISKEY
TASTE
Three spirits come together to give a balance of flavour like no other. Grain whiskey gives sweet flavours. Malt whiskey gives fruit flavours. And pot still whiskey gives spice flavours.
HOW IT'S MADE
The complex yet approachable flavours in the whiskey are derived from - three types of grain, triple distillation and the blend of all three Irish whiskeys.
CASK FINISH
Triple cask-matured for depth and balance. Over a period of several years, it is aged in traditional refill barrels, ex-bourbon barrels and ex-sherry butts.

Dewar's White Label
In 1899, a year after production commenced at Dewar’s new distillery, Aberfeldy, A.J. Cameron created the now-iconic Dewar’s White Label. Over the next 120 years, our flagship blend established itself as one of the leading blended Scotch whiskies worldwide.
Did you know that Dewar’s White Label is the whisky of choice for highballs by the bartenders of Japan for its unique smoothness and refreshing taste? This makes it the perfect accompaniment to food.
The Original Soda Highball
In 1892 while out with friends in New York, Tommy Dewar asked for his whisky to be served in a tall glass, along with soda and ice – and so the ‘Original Highball’ was born, and became the perfect drink to enhance the smoothness of our whisky.

i stood on a stool in the patio of a burger shop and had a twenty-second photo shoot while waiting on one mighty tasty burger. and i actually managed to get the detail on that one bulb's filament without falling on my ass.
The other name I was going to use for this was Brontosaurus Bokeh
I even bring my 85 into the kids area at the doctors office and play around with their toys. I did get some strange looks from the nurses and other people in the waiting room but... they just don't get it.
Happy Bokeh Wednesday, not that I pay any attention to that sort of stuff.
