African green mamba...
Having some digital fun with stock images. The shot of the green mamba was taken in Jan 2014 during a reptile exhibit at the RBG.
Merrin really liked those wings, so this is for my beautiful best friend and wife!
I had questions about the display on the opera house.
So just a bit of information about this lightshow, it is a 15 min. looping cycle of moving pictures, a bit like a movie projected onto the sails.
This is what makes it so tricky to get a decent shot of it, exposures can't be longer than half a second anything longer gets blurry. Not your normal long exposure!

This beautiful old church is in the tiny village of Copper Center, Alaska. I think that the log construction is very interesting, from the foundation; to the old wooden cross on the top of the steeple.
By mid-September Doc and I remove our truck camper from the truck - winterize it - and put it under cover. Once that is done, it is time to put the two utility boxes back into the bed of the truck. Those boxes are heavy and bulky, and I worry about him wrestling them into place, with out smashing his fingers - but somehow he manages. How many other eighty six year old men do you know that could tackle those chores all alone?

Until this summer - I had never heard of, or enjoyed, a fruit called "Donut Peaches". When the "fruit man" arrived in town this summer - he handed out samples of this delightful peach - and now I am hooked. I find them to be sweeter and juicier than a regular peach, and I can't wait to get my hands on some more.
**(Donut peaches are distinguished by their shape, which is roughly rounded and squat with a dimpled center at the fruit's stem end. The fruit's skin has a velvety finish and is flushed with tones of ivory, rose and rouge. Within the fruit's core is its non-clinging, easy to remove pit. Its creamy, juicy-when-ripe flesh is low-acid with a candy-like sweetness and a melting quality. The sweetness is due to what is referred to as the honey gene, a dominant gene that is found in all Chinese peach varieties. Documentation of peaches was first recorded in Chinese writings during 1100 B.C.)
... the overpowering sense of isolation felt and needed when faced with the loss of a loved one.
The silhouette is from an image dating back to 2015 of someone alone at the edge of a pier shrouded in fog and whom later on I found out she was grieving the sudden loss of a close friend.
As with all my work, all images used are my own.

The sun sets directly at the end of the Venice Pier on the winter solstice when this was taken. HDR from 3 exposures organized in Lightroom, tonemapped in Dynamic Photo HDR and edited with Topaz in photoshop.
From cold ground,
A grave
The Breath of Spring
Warms the air
Draws colours,
Life unfurls,
Rising from Winter sleep

This was the view from the cottage we stayed in at Easter.
A collage inspired by the scrapbooks that our great grand parents kept for storing photos, pressed flowers, theatre programs, and other memorabilia ...
Created for the theme challenge Nostalgia in the Handheld Art Group.
I created the background layers, composed the colllage, blended the different elements and textures, and to added the handwritten script in PicsArt and iColorama on my iPad.
I tweaked the colour and made the "grungey" border from some of my textures in Photoshop Elements 13 for Mac.
All the photographs, background layers, and textures are my own, with the exception of the "human" elements which are free non-attributable images from Pixabay
Universe... such a vast place. Laws of the Universe are perfect, there is no anomalies, everything works! The most logical answer would be that an intelligent mind constructed Universe... or maybe, a God? Now they tell us there is infinite number of universes... can you fathom that?! Only in our galaxy there is many stars as there is grains of sand on all the beaches of the planet Earth, and there is the same number of galaxies in our Universe... and again, in each of that galaxy you have that many stars, and that each star is the solar system with who knows how many habitable planets! Mind blowing... isn't it?
And then someone tells me we are the only intelligent species in the Universe... arrogant, isn't it? The entire Universe just for people... sure! Just as the Earth once was the center of the Universe. :))) Human arrogance has no limits...
Thanks for watching!
