The Great Blue Heron finds a fish in the boggy muck. Normally this area is covered in shallow water but the dry summer had left lots of exposed areas.

Camera obscura (plural camera obscura or camerae obscurae from Latin, meaning "dark room": camera "(vaulted) chamber or room," and obscura "darkened, dark"), also referred to as pinhole image, is the natural optical phenomenon that occurs when an image of a scene at the other side of a screen (or for instance a wall) is projected through a small hole in that screen, as a reversed and inverted image (left to right and upside down) on a surface opposite to the opening. The surroundings of the projected image have to be relatively dark for the image to be clear, so many historical camera obscura experiments were performed in dark rooms.
The term "camera obscura" also refers to constructions or devices that make use of the principle within a box, tent or room. Camerae obscurae with a lens in the opening have been used since the second half of the 16th century and became popular as an aid for drawing and painting. The camera obscura box was developed further into the photographic camera in the first half of the 19th century when camera obscura boxes were used to expose light-sensitive materials to the projected image.
The camera obscura was used as a means to study eclipses, without the risk of damaging the eyes by looking into the sun directly. As a drawing aid, the camera obscura allowed tracing the projected image to produce a highly accurate representation, especially appreciated as an easy way to achieve a proper graphical perspective.
A camera obscura device without a lens but with a very small hole is sometimes referred to as a "pinhole camera", although this more often refers to simple (home-made) lens-less cameras in which photographic film or photographic paper is used.
The earliest known written record of the camera obscura is to be found in Chinese writings called Mozi and dated to the 4th century BCE, traditionally ascribed to and named for Mozi (circa 470 BCE-circa 391 BCE), a Han Chinese philosopher and the founder of Mohist School of Logic. In these writings it is explained how the inverted image in a "collecting-point" or "treasure house" is inverted by an intersecting point (a pinhole) that collected the (rays of) light.
The Greek philosopher Aristotle (384-322 BCE), or possibly a follower of his ideas, touched upon the subject in the work Problems - Book XV, asking:
"Why is it that when the sun passes through quadri-laterals, as for instance in wickerwork, it does not produce a figure rectangular in shape but circular?”
and further on:
“Why is it that an eclipse of the sun, if one looks at it through a sieve or through leaves, such as a plane-tree or other broadleaved tree, or if one joins the fingers of one hand over the fingers of the other, the rays are crescent-shaped where they reach the earth? Is it for the same reason as that when light shines through a rectangular peep-hole, it appears circular in the form of a cone?"
Many philosophers and scientists of the Western world would ponder this question before it became accepted that the circular and crescent-shapes described in this "problem" were actually pinhole image projections of the sun. Although a projected image will have the shape of the aperture when the light source, aperture and projection plane are close together, the projected image will have the shape of the light source when they are further apart.

Let's see one another when we're weak
Let's go our separate ways in the night
Like two moths
But know that you're flying home to me
I was born thinking
It would all be dreamy
But I know that I wouldn't be happy that way
You wear me out with frustration and heartache and anger
But we wait for the wave just to wash it away
Don't say nothing
Just sit next to me
Don't say nothing
Shhh
Just be,

Mon troisième jour sur Séoul. Une matinée où je traîne encore dans les quartiers environnants la "Galerie K" où j'expose. L'art me semble présent ici et partout, s'affichant sous de si nombreuses formes. Ici aussi, comme à Tokyo, des immeubles peuvent être entièrement consacrés à une galerie unique. Eaux et gaz à tous les étages. Dans l'un d'entre eux, je ne croiserais pas âme qui vive sur 4 étages. Je finirai sur sa terrasse à succomber à l'enivrement des lieux et de la cité. Après un déjeuner délicieux composé surtout d'une poule cuite au bouillon, farcie de riz aromatisé, je file vers l'ambassade des Etats Unis, en passant par le bâtiment 119, histoire de prendre la température suite à l'énorme manifestation de la veille. Calme plat, flics un peu partout. Là se trouve aussi l'immense Palais royal de Gyeongbokgung. Un lieu où tout est vaste. Ici le mystère s'établit pas à pas devant vos yeux. J'y pénétrerai le lendemain et assisterai même à la levée de sa garde. Un peu plus tard après une nouvelle douche à l'hôtel, je reprendrai ma marche errante dans la nuit de Séoul. Le GPS sera ma boussole en des lieux que je ne saurai nommer, désolé.

My third day on Seoul. A morning where I still hang in the surrounding neighborhoods "Gallery K" where I expose. Art seems to me here and everywhere, appearing in so many forms. Here too, as in Tokyo, buildings can be entirely dedicated to a single gallery. Water and gas on all floors. In one of them, where I would not cross a living soul on 4 floors. I will finish on his terrace to succumb to the intoxication of the place and the city. After a delicious lunch consisting mostly of a chicken cooked in broth, stuffed with flavored rice, I go to the Embassy of the United States, through building 119, just to take the temperature following the huge demonstration of the day before. Quiet flat, cops everywhere. There is also the huge royal palace of Gyeongbokgung. A place where everything is vast. Here the mystery is established step by step before your eyes. I will enter the next day and will even attend the lifting of his guard. A little later after a new shower at the hotel, I will resume my wandering walk in the night of Seoul. The GPS will be my compass in places that I can not name,sorry.
Many thanks for your visits, faves and comments. Cheers.
Sacred Kingfisher
Scientific Name: Todiramphus sanctus
Description: The Sacred Kingfisher is a medium sized kingfisher. It has a turquoise back, turquoise blue rump and tail, buff-white underparts and a broad cream collar. There is a broad black eye stripe extending from bill to nape of neck. Both sexes are similar, although the female is generally lighter with duller upper parts. Young birds are similar to the female, but have varying amounts of rusty-brown edging to feathers on the collar and underparts, and buff edges on the wing coverts.
Distribution: The Sacred Kingfisher is common and familiar throughout the coastal regions of mainland Australia and less common throughout Tasmania. The species is also found on islands from Australasia to Indonesia and New Zealand.
Habitat: The Sacred Kingfisher inhabits woodlands, mangroves and paperbark forests, tall open eucalypt forest and melaleuca forest.
Seasonal movements: In Australia, Sacred Kingfishers spend the winter in the north of their range and return south in the spring to breed.
Feeding: Sacred Kingfishers forage mainly on the land, only occasionally capturing prey in the water. They feed on crustaceans, reptiles, insects and their larvae and, infrequently, fish. The birds perch on low exposed branch on the lookout for prey. Once prey is located, the Sacred Kingfisher swoops down and grasps it in its bill, returning to the perch to eat it.
Breeding: For most of the year Sacred Kingfishers are mainly solitary, pairing only for the breeding season. Usually two clutches are laid in a season. Both sexes excavate the nest, which is normally a burrow in a termite mound, hollow branch or river bank. The nest chamber is unlined and can be up to 20m above the ground. Both sexes also incubate the eggs and care for the young.
Calls: The voice of the Sacred Kingfisher is a loud "ek ek ek ek" repeated continuously throughout breeding season. Birds also give a "kee kee kee" in excitement and a series of chirring, scolding notes when alarmed.
Minimum Size: 19cm
Maximum Size: 24cm
Average size: 21cm
Average weight: 45g
Breeding season: September to December; occasionally extended to March, if conditions are favourable.
Clutch Size: 3 to 6
Incubation: 18 days
Nestling Period: 26 days

Yes, the forest nemesis. Not overly big one's, just enough to trip the trekker. Apart from that, they contrast well with the path ahead in both colour and growth.
The 1st day of our trip had us heading for Reykjanes. The previous evening we managed to see the erupting volcano with a bit of ducking and diving around the security but it was all perfectly legal what we did and being with responsible adults I knew I was in safe hands. lol. We arrived at the Lighthouse to windy conditions. Our Co-Driver promptly jumped out of the car to ascertain what way the wind was blowing. (Always a stickler for accuracy) so we could get the steam at its best.
There is nothing quite like being over 11,000 feet up at sunrise in a bitter cold wind. You feel incredibly alive and also very exposed. You are out in the elements and there is little to protect you. Even though this feeling can be intimidating, I like to picture the wind as God’s love and presence and being fully exposed to it. There are no worldly shelters in the way to protect you from the beautiful blast of Himself! What a joy it is to be in His presence fully exposed!
I came across a film holder for a Bronica EC 6x6 with exposed film in it. This is the only picture I managed to get from it. For me it lookes like a "student kitchen"

The court-confirmed minimum level of Mono Lake is several feet higher than the lake ahs been in recent years. It's hard to say when the lake might regain that depth, but when it does many of the calcium carbonate tufa rock formations that we see today will be at least partially submerged.
Captured while leading a seminar for the Mono Lake Committee in November 2019. Lori Hibbett and I will be leading another Mono Lake Moon Rise and Winter Light workshop at Mono Lake December 17-19, 2022.

Stay with me forever
Stay in till it's dark
Stay in till the morning
Till we see the sun
Say you'll never leave me
Here's where you belong
Stay in till the morning
Stay a little while
Liz I can't wait to get you in my bed
Do you need me?, Do do do do do you need me baby.
It's been months since you've been here and say...
Did you mean it?, Did did did did did you mean it baby.
Now work with me a little while
Much of settling down but we hanging around
Started in a whole damn show, but we at the whole time low
Yeah it won't be a little while
Not in till late till we reconcile
Here are hearts exposed,
Not nobody takes the seats while the curtains close
(Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do)
Here are hearts exposed,
Not nobody takes the seats while the curtains close
(Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do)
Here are hearts exposed,
Not nobody takes the seats while the curtains close
Sway our hearts in motion
Swaying in all night
Swaying in slow motion
Until our hearts collide
I'm not good with emotion
But show me a little more fun
Just a little more devotion
That you willing to make it right
It's been months since you've been here and say...
Brutal shooting conditions on this particular visit to Botallack. Strong winds generated some nice water movement and drama within this particular scene. With a second lockdown coming into force towards the end of the week I spent a good few hours shooting and made my way back up the cliff once it was dark.
Great to also meet fellow Flickr friend Brian Spicer.
Thanks for viewing, take care and have a great weekend :-)
