With their "tear tracks" most cheetahs do look rather sad, but this poor guy had only three legs!. He was being kept in an enclosure & well cared for by the Africat Foundation at Okonjima Nature Reserve , Namibia. We were in a jeep when we were driven into the enclosure at feeding time. A metal dish containing some meat was placed on the jeep`s bonnet . Our cheetah soon appeared & leapt up onto the bonnet , hence this image ....the closest that I have ever been to a cheetah.

The rain kept away for a change ..trudging over soggy moorland in search of a lone tree! Didn't find one but still good fun :-)
There are two enclosures fenced with stones. The smaller one for the horses in the main roundup, and for the sheep found in the second and third roundups

This is one of the sheltered spots in Willow's enclosure. I love the butterfly tree, the secret to keep it flowering is clipping off the browned flower heads.

when my strong arms receive you,
the voices of absence, sweetly
our leisures will count two paths
without anyone, with the two of them, never and always.
And the pair of words messes
to deep unity. and so much number
is reduced to the edge of the encounter
with amazement of being poetry.
I no longer know how to walk except towards you.
The rose of paths of your absence
alert in me the scent of return
and the hidden word of his science.
I hear my name in you, I am your presence.

Not a Sunday Slide, the wacky colours are straight out of the camera. The LUT implementation in the S5ii makes it too easy to achieve garish results like this..

You can see the spotters enclosure in the background. Every congratulations must be extended to all the pilots based at Florennes, as it was them that organised the spotters day in their own time and after their hefty workload as participants and hosts of the 2 week exercise..

Blue Cochin chickens are known for feathered feet, which kept them warm in their original habitat, the mountains of China. This one lives at Wright-Locke Farm, where she lays eggs and waddles around the enclosure. She's friendly, and likes to hang out with her fellow Cochins.

After I had spent some time at Mogshade Pond, I headed down through Bolderwood to find some areas that might still be foggy.
Thankfully at Vinney Ridge, next to the A35, the area was still quite foggy and the sun hadn't yet risen above the trees.

What is the weakest link in your photography setup?
As a photography instructor, the most common weak link I notice in my students' setup is the tripod. When photographing in harsh environments, the sturdiness and vibration damping properties of tripods are essential. My go to is the Fotopro tripod. It is lightweight enough to hike long distances with and holds up really well in difficult environments. Feel free to reach out if you want more info on Fotopro tripods - I think they are some of the best in the business!

Inch is a small coastal settlement and townland on the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry, Ireland. Inch Strand, in Inch townland, is on a long sand spit and dune system which reaches into Dingle Bay. The R561 regional road passes through the area.
Evidence of ancient settlement in the area includes a number of midden, ringfort and ecclesiastical enclosure sites in Inch and Inch East townlands. The graveyard enclosure, in Inch East, contains a ruined single-cell church which dates to at least the 13th century.
Inch Strand, also known as Inch Beach, is a spit which is 5 km in length and, together with its dune system, forms part of the Special Area of Conservation at Castlemaine Harbour.
