Morning walk, the light was superb, the blooming trees and singing birds, sea, delicate wind and discrete noise of waves...Disney could make a fairy tale from that.
Nerima-ku where I live in seems to be the newest in Tokyo's 23 wards. Itabashi-ku and discrete those days, most land seemed to be farmland. I think that probably it is the ward with many housing complexes now.
I intend to take a larger-scale housing complex town on the next time.
On June 29, 2014 at Nerima-ku government office.

僕の住む練馬区は東京23区の中で最も新しいそうです。 板橋区から分離した当時はほとんどが農地だったそうですが、いまではおそらく団地が最も多い区だと思います。
次回もっと大規模な団地街を撮ってみようと思います。
2014年6月29日、練馬区役所にて。
I've been discretely observing a pair of Dabchicks over the last few visits & I think it's safe to say that a happy event is now only a few days away. In spite of the colour of their breeding plumage, once they are in the reed bed, they are surprisingly difficult to see. Fingers crossed, I might get to see the young scrabbling on & off the parent's back as they rush to receive the next meal from Mum or Dad.
In the old days, you could travel and take a discrete number of photos... then have the film converted to paper photos... sometimes it was hard to have missed the right opening or exposure of "that beautiful moment" and find out far too late... this is from a Voigtländer I love for many reasons... my dad had one like this:-)
Today, smartphones (and digital cameras) are just too easy...
Common Blue / polyommatus icarus. Stanton Sidings, Derbyshire. 07/08/17.
I am definitely faring better locally with sightings of second brood Common Blue butterflies than back in May-June. Even so, their numbers aren't as high as in previous summers.
(The last word in that sentence is used ironically, based on the 'summer' we are currently enduring!)
I disturbed this male CB on my local brownfield site late one afternoon. The yellow bokeh could mislead you into thinking it was sunny and pleasant when in fact the weather was ominously 'moody', threatening another rain shower and blowing strong gusts of wind. Clearly, the CB had been seeking shelter and roosting among the vegetation. He fluttered half-heartedly before perching upside down on the seed head. Luckily, a profusion of yellow Ragwort flowers behind provided the splash of colour needed to showcase the butterfly.
This could´ve been a staged selfie, but...it´s actually not.
I was out driving through the countryside on the lookout for a "pretty picture", (that´s what I call my LE work). In the distance I saw this figure walking along the empty road and when I got closer I saw his umbrella. I don´t know why, but umbrellas makes great pictures in my own mind.
I drove into the side of the road, took my camera and yelled out an order, "keep walking!!"
I lost all shyness/respect, all I saw and thought of was the image.
Afterwards I apologized and laughed while I was trying to explain my nutty behavior. He took it well and it was kinda worth it. My way of shooting is normally quiet and discrete with lots of respect for my subjects. But, not in this case :)
A Pole&O/Beach/Wood/Float(s) - IMRAN™
It is in the ordinary, the mundane, the unnoticed, that one can find the most interesting visions, unique perspectives, diverse views, different colors, discrete materials, all making a beautiful whole even within a hole, and a circle fitting just fine in (a) square peg(ged) wood, if one knows how to look everywhere with an open and curious mind. That’s the inspiration lesson of the day from this SOOC (straight out of camera) iPhone photo 3D view (see www.facebook.com/134701029880230/posts/4013480442002250/ ) from a quick walk at the neighborhood beach this morning.

Spring in the arctic region is more or less a non-excisting season. We generally move discretely from the state of winter to some kind of summer. Spring is a rather abstract thing, and that is what lead me to the title of this picture.

Please NO large, noisy or flashy graphics/logos.
I prefer personal comments. If you must, please use comment codes WITHOUT ICONS or use discrete ones.
Thank you.

Festival des lumières qui a lieu chaque année depuis 6 ans. Pendant 10 jours
les artistes exposent des "sculptures ou créations originales lumineuses" disséminées dans toute la ville. Certaines de ces œuvres ne figurent pas dans mes photos car trop discrètes.
GENEVA LUX (lux meaning light in latin)
Festival of lights which has been held every year for 6 years. During 10 days
the artists exhibit "luminous original sculptures or creations" scattered throughout the city. Some of these works do not appear in my photos because they are too discreet.
American Oystercatcher
The American Oystercatchers are a group of waders forming the family Haematopodidae, which has a single genus, Haematopus. They are found on coasts worldwide apart from the Polar Regions and some tropical regions of Africa and South East Asia. The exception to this is the Eurasian Oystercatcher and the South Island Oystercatcher, both of which breed inland, far inland in some cases. In the past there has been a great deal of confusion as to the species limits, with discrete populations of all black oystercatchers being afforded specific status but pied oystercatchers being considered one single species.
The name Oystercatcher was coined by Mark Catesby in 1731 as a common name for the North American species H. Palliatus, described as eating oysters. Yarrell in 1843 established this as the preferred term, replacing the older name Sea Pie.

Finished in fleet livery, this bus is ready to hit the road on the X66 service as of Monday.
Quite a nice contrast I feel of striking livery and discrete "Centre-link" branding.
The American robin is a migratory bird and widely distributed throughout North America. The American robin is active mostly during the day and assembles in large flocks at night. Its diet consists of invertebrates (such as beetle grubs, earthworms, and caterpillars), fruits, and berries. It is among the earliest birds to sing at dawn, and its song consists of several discrete units that are repeated.
I think this photo nicely illustrates the cooperation of individual trees in a forest. Rather than ruthlessly compete for light, each tree seems to occupy a discrete space, allowing all to survive. Some research even indicates that trees share nutrients with each other through their roots. Damn socialists!
Brewer's Sparrow BRSP (Spizella breweri)

Great find & ID Nathan Hentze!
Great bird for Victoria Area.
honestly - I may very well have been wondering about Clay Coloured Sparrow,had i been first to lay eyes on it
Thanks to Carl Hughes,for helping others & myself observe this discrete bird.
Note: A few have been banded out at RPBO this year from what i gather
At the Den entrance, not in the most discrete place, bit close to a heavy footfall path, hopefully they will make it.

Florence. Although I usually shoot discretely, this girl realised my action. His reaction was curiosity, I suppose.
More hidden than its neighbour Mobius Arch, Lathe Arch is also a little more acrobatic to photograph, in balance between 2 rocks on which I tried to set the tripod. But I managed to put Lone Pine Peak in there!
Plus discrète que sa voisine Mobius Arch, Lathe Arch est aussi un peu plus acrobatique à photographier, en équilibre entre 2 rochers sur lesquels j'ai essayé de caler le trépied. Mais j'ai réussi à mettre Lone Pine Peak dedans!
… à un Maître immortel de la couleur !

The Lençóis Maranhenses National Park is located in Maranhão state, in northeastern Brazil. It is an area of low, flat, occasionally flooded land, overlaid with large, discrete sand dunes. It encompasses roughly 1000 square kilometers, and despite abundant rain, supports almost no vegetation.
The National Park is quite extensive and has no access roads. Because of the nature of the park's protected status, most vehicles are not permitted access. Entrance to the park is made exclusively by 4-wheel drive trucks.
Composed of large, white, sweeping dunes, at first glance Lençóis Maranhenses looks like an archetypal desert.
In fact it isn't actually a desert. Lying just outside the amazon basin, the region is subject to a regular rain season during the beginning of the year. The rains cause a peculiar phenomenon: freshwater collects in the valleys between sand dunes, spotting the desert with blue and green lagoons that reach their fullest between July and September.
The area is also surprisingly home to a variety of fish which, despite the almost complete disappearance of the lagoons during the dry season, have their eggs brought from the sea by birds.
