Thank you very much for your comments and faves, regretfully, I am finding it increasingly difficult to reply to your comments, because of my very limited time on the internet, due to constant power interruptions in South Africa. I do read and appreciate every one of them, however! Thanks again!!
It looks like this muskrat is floating in an unreal world with the marsh reflections all around. This photo shows one of the ways to tell a muskrat from a beaver - the round, scaly tail. Beavers are well known for their flat tails. It was fun watching the muskrat watch me. He floated quietly for a couple of minutes, then dived and was gone.
Happy Holidays everyone. I wish you a great and wonderful time with your family. Whether they are the ones you built yourself online, offline or the ones you were born into. No matter what occasion this day is for you I hope you all enjoy it and find beauty and joy in it no matter what. xoxo Vix

I can't help but think back to the 70s and The Floaters song 'Float On'.
An interesting aquatic creature to observe - by utilising the hairs on their legs that repel water and capture air, the tiny water striders appear to stand on the water's surface... the captured air allows them to float and move easily.
And how fast they zip about at times.

I have taken hundreds of shots of this jetty over the years but there are still a few different ideas that I want to try there. This is a shot I have been after for some time as it requires conditions to be just right. I got this yesterday with a calm sea, light winds and flat light, all at high tide which was exactly right for this composition.
Do it justice -- view large and on black!
A thousand years is but an instant. There's nothing new, nothing different. The same pattern over and over. The same clouds, the same music, the same insight I felt an hour or an eternity ago. There's nothing here for me now, nothing at all. Now I remember. This happened to me before. This is why I left.
You have begun to find your answers. Although it will seem difficult, the rewards will be great. Exercise your human mind as fully as possible, knowing it is only an exercise. Build beautiful artifacts, solve problems, explore the secrets of the physical universe, savor the input from all the senses, feel the joy and sorrow, the laughter, the empathy, compassion and tote the emotional memory in your travel bag.
I remember where I came from and how I became a human, why I hung around, and now my final departure is scheduled. This way out. Escaping velocity. Not just eternity, but infinity.

Don't worry, even if things end up a bit too heavy, we'll all float on alright.
"When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here."

As a child, I have always had a fascination with airplanes. Perhaps it was because my mother worked at the airport and I spent a lot of time there watching them take off and land while waiting for her to get off of work. I don't know what it is about them, but I find them a beautiful piece of machinery that can take us on fascinating adventures.
I remember how excited I was the first time I visited Yellowknife 20 years ago and got a chance to see float planes up close and personal. It wasn't until this year in Fort Simpson that I got a chance to fly in one.
This image from Yellowknife this summer is one of my favorites. Come aboard and take me to a different land!
Some kelp washed up on the beach on Morro Strand State Beach in California.
Kelp (brown algae seaweed) possess gas-filled floats known as pneumatocysts that enable fronds to float on the water surface, maximizing exposure to sunlight and enhancing photosynthesis. The gas content of the pneumatocysts can vary, but are usually filled with a combination of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. Depending on the species, the kelp may contain one large pneumatocyst or several smaller pneumatocysts distributed throughout the kelp.
There's something about shooting in studio that I absolutely love.
Shooting on location is just as fun because you've got choice as to where your model will pose and if they're interacting with the environment but there is still something about shooting in the studio that I'm always drawn to. I can't put my finger on what it is exactly but I feel as though it has something to do with having complete control of the lighting and the lack of pressure and distraction that shooting on location yields.
Lots more photo's of Fiona and I's shoot on my facebook page!
Happy monday!
I think it's a floater, it's very close but I don't think it's touching...lol.
I hope everyone enjoys, thanks for looking.
Today I thought I'd break up my stream of normal landscapes and see how something a little different fares. I drove down to Chico looking for some autumn color in Bidwell Park. Chico is pretty well known for all of it's beautiful trees and we saw many on the way to the park through the city, but didn't find much where we ended up in the lower section. It does have a pretty unusual feature. The creek flowing through has a cement pool with a dam they can raise to fill the pool from the creek.
So the dam was up and the pool was covered with fall leaves slowly slipping by in the current. So I litterally laid down on the edge of the pool/creek with my 50mm f/1.8 and was able to get very close to this cluster of leaves.
