A fisherman returns to the Milang Jetty, Souh Australia.
A Pod of pelicans, also gathered like peas in a pod, wait with expectations of a tasty treat from the fisherman.
I’ve been chasing bee shots for a while, and today it finally happened! 🐝
With JJ by my side on his retractable leash (tucked under my foot so he’d stay put), I locked my camera in and got ready. The bees were zipping left and right — I must have taken about 30 captures until one turned out just right.
Finally caught a bit of beeuty in flight — and I couldn’t be happier.

I never have expectations when I head fro the beach, but I always go in the knowledge that things can change very quickly. Cloud systems can fill an empty blue sky within a few minutes, so the fun is in the unexpected. For once this shot ignores the reflections, and gives the shimmering drying sand a chance.

My local lake, where every year there are swans nesting at this particular site. I have seen and photographed several broods previously and look forward to seeing new arrivals in a few weeks time…Watch this space!
It's Jack's meal time .....
Then it's walk time.....(and maybe a car ride)
Then it's game time......
Then it's nap time (routines are so important)
There have been water restrictions for about 2 months due to very little rain. Most flora are not flowering and those that did have shriveled because of the drought conditions.
Just less than a year ago a good friend who is a wonder at growing Cactus dropped off about a three foot "cutting" for me. Basically stuck it in the ground in the Garden of Benign Neglect and surprise, it didn't drop dead.
Now, within the last couple of days it has set froth a bud.(?) Which is now looking like it is going to...gasp! Flower!
I'm so excited.

A trip to Plumford Wildflower Meadows revealed a sea of colour as far as the eye could see with the Pyramidal Orchids put on their annual show. An exceptional season with thousands upon thousands of all shapes, forms and hues ranging from Var Alba, white with a hint of pink, light salmon through to mauves and crimson, one of natures true delights.......
There it comes!! Little children ability
To see and enjoy the little things.
This enchanted expectation to the next moment
That….
Now I am older, and lost this ability of
recognizing those little things that compose my way.
I only have this expectation for the one big thing
And then disappointment.
These days I am re-learning how to see and wait
For all these little joys that really are
The greatest
One of Teilhard’s enduring contributions is that he reconciled evolution and creation in such a way that there ought no longer to be seen any intrinsic conflict between the two. God creates the universe evolutively. From the “outside” or “without,”110 the universe evolves; one thing comes to be by way of birth from something that already is.111 From the “inside” or “within,” there is an energy of evolution that moves it. That energy ultimately is love, or God, the God of evolution, the God who makes creation evolve. The cosmos is a cosmogenesis, a coming to be that has a birth with time and unfolds in time.

My friend at 4 1/2 months. We plan to do a maternity session in a few months. I had to ask her to stick her belly out farther for this shot. =D
I am not crazy about this composition but it was worth a shot. I have better ideas for the next session.

But it was ruined by Ant and Dec. We were going North, further North than usual, but to the back of beyond from whence I came. In recent times I had become aware of this place, way off the beaten track. I saw that our planned route would take us reasonably close, with a little diversion, I had hoped my wife wouldn't notice. And I couldn't see when I would next get a better chance to visit it. It's the Pink House on Loch Glass. Abandonning my wife at the white steel gates (I think you are still allowed to do that) I set off eagerly down the forest track with Effie. It was a bit of a race against time, as wife was simmering gently as I told her I reckoned I would be away for an hour. But I really wanted to grab this shot, the pink House so photogenic against heavy grey clouds. I had no clue what I would find, but eventually, way down the track, as the tall pines thinned I got my first view of the loch and the house at its side. But, shock horror, what was going on? Fluorescent Ambulances, or Police cars, RIB's on the water, yurts, cherry pickers and loads of cars and pick ups. Had there been a murder in this most remote location? The commotion around the house was ruining my shot, and as it turned out the only lens I had taken was way too short. But the security guard in a trackside shelter prevented me from going closer or finding out what was going on. But under fierce interrogation he let go a few vital clues: filming for the Traitors TV series. Had I known in advance I wouldn't have walked all that way (I've done a lot of cloning) and my wife might have taken the bag off her face for the rest of our drive north.
This candid shot was literally "shot from the hip" - I was holding my camera at waist-level with one hand as I walked past this lad. He saw the camera and his eyes just lit up. Could be sharper, but I'm happy considering the chance circumstances.

Dieses Bild wurde wirklich "aus der Hüfte" geschossen - ich hielt die Kamera mit nur einer Hand in Hüfthöhe als ich an diesen Jungen vorbei lief. Er sah die Kamera, und seine Augen leuchteten auf. Könnte etwas schärfer sein, ich bin aber mit dem Ergebnis zufrieden, wenn man an die Aufnahmebedingungen denkt.
Thomas a Becket church
Fairfield, Romney Marsh.
this remote church was in the opening scenes of a couple of adaptations of Charles Dickens Great Expectations....although rather more moody than my interpretation....I must go again!
There are other shots from the same session on my blog.
