And sooooo after a helluva long time away, me is back! At least in part, been so preoccupied with DIY, Home Improvements and painting, as well as just wanting to take a break from photography, I decided to take advantage of the sudden nice weather after a mild start to Spring. Went for my usual walkabout, which means wondering for miles in no particular direction in search of no particular shot and I accidently happened upon this cemetery.
I have to say, and in well meaning respects, graveyards are actually beautiful places, I do however draw the line somewhat, as I never take shots of actual grave stones identifying people, I never step over nor onto an actual gravesite and always say a quiet thank you, in respects for deceased occupier of the grave.
These flowers were at such an angle I caught the sun rays, which felt like life upon death, hence the word serenade came to mind.
I hope everyone is well and so as always, thank you! :)

The Burnham on Crouch Quay again!!! Sorry but the light was so nice took loads of shots. This one has deep blue tones and horizontal lines in the sky! Excuse any noise, hand held as no tripod. Must keep it in the car!
During mating season, the Australian magpie can become aggressive and attack humans crossing its territory. Fortunately for this man, this swooping macaw was friendly and just wanted to perch on his owners hand.

"Through the Veil "
High up in the wilderness of the Wicklow Mountains, the first light of dawn moves along the horizon, on the first day of January, 2017.
Taken from the slopes of Tonelagee Mtn at 600m.

Update 9/1/ 17
You will notice that I havent written my usual stuff with this photo. I think its beyond that for me. You would have to go up there and seen it happening to comprehend what it does to your senses. { Er....I changed my mind...again!!! }
I took this photo at dawn from the side of Tonalgee { " Ass to the wind" } Mountain at 600m. A wild, boggy and isolated place but with its own unique beauty which draws some of us crazy people like a magnet!
I think the shape of the light flaring out from the sun behind the ridge line which was changing by the second, is something to behold. I did wonder, as I looked at it if there was a place between the light and the dark where you could stand and. what would it do to your mind.
Then I realised I was standing, up to my knees in freezing bog water and I could hear the red grouse calling out to one another in the darkness and probably saying " Whose yer man with the camera. Bejaysus wouldnt you imagine he`d get sense and go home! { They were Irish red grouses obviously! Lol! } Anyway, I ended up breaking into a fit of laughter at the thought of it so the moment was gone and I got quickly out of there.
Im very pleased with it as I think its very different but my honest friends on Flickr have ways of letting me know whether they like it like I do! Pat.
UPDATE 1/1 2017
AS it is New Year, I just wanted to remember our two good friends that we lost during 2017. Firstly my good friend, the Birdman, Steve-h from Dublin who took such amazing bird studies in St Stephens Green. A master and a true gentlemen who still inspires me and I keep all his wonderful stories with me always! Heres to you Steve!
And secondly but by no means in that order, our larger than life friend Richard Gregory. A wonderful photographer wth a zany sense of humor who took the P out of me constantly and me out of him. How many people can you actually do that with without causing offence? Very few and only those that you truly like and admire. Gone but not forgotten "and no I dont want to hear your latest Irish joke, Richard!! Oh! ok then, seeing as its yerself but Ill get you later!!! "
If you scroll down the page they are both on it here
and with all of us too!

When you are at school, and the teacher says draw a mountain, the triangle is where most of us would begin. Most mountains don't really look like that, but Beinn Dorain seen here certainly matches that desciption.
This Great Blue Heron was re-arranging its feathers, and hit this position - reminded me of a western movie with the cowboys facing each other down, ready to draw!
I found the place, caught in open arms
When love's embrace mends a broken heart
Here I will stay for all my days

An amazing number of different colours, (mostly shades of Green) in a grassy environment west of Penticton.
A macro study of a vibrant purple Anemone, captured with the Lensbaby Sol 45. The lens's unique selective focus draws the eye into the delicate textures of the inner petals, while the surrounding "bokeh" melts into a soft, creamy haze of lavender and muted greens.
Amtrak’s eastbound California Zephyr quietly crosses the large earthen fill leading down to Tunnel 16 at South Draw as the silvery passenger train catches some sunlight playing tag with clouds while dropping downgrade through the Tunnel District east of Crescent, Colorado, on the afternoon of April 24, 2019. No. 6 has nearly 30 track-miles to go before it reaches Denver Union Station out on the plains far below.
Drax power station. The only coal powered station still under power, but burning wood pellets imported from the US. Once the most powerful power station in the UK, producing 6% of the UK power. Many questions over its sustainable credentials...but it does make or a good photo.
