..but not what you might think now (laugh)

A few months ago I was already here to photograph the two castles in the background together with the road and this time I used also a modified telescopic rod with ball head for a better view of the curve. This I simply leaned on my tripod and secured it with a counterweight and waited in calm conditions for a few seconds until the swing stopped.

Then I started the exposures with a radio remote trigger.

I was very lucky with this single, first car.

 

A photo friend suggested me in a comment to this place to come in wintertime wen snow had fallen. I thought that was a great idea.

Karen and I were taking photos of Hershey and Cooper and trying different poses. It seems that Hershey here got a little bored with all the going on's, promptly laid down and that's where he stayed. Cooper on the other hand is quite the photo hog and doesn't mind in the least of having his photo taken.

Well I thought I was looking at an angry Snoopy as I looked through the viewfinder - but then I clocked that I was looking over the fence into our garden and this is really the top of the Contorted Hazel tree in the garden with Snoopy trying to get out of all the twisted and contorted branches !!

Few of us who are not working with an eagle center will ever have the privilege of getting within touching distance of an eagle. If we did, one of the marvelous aspects we would inspect is their four talons on each leg as seen extended in this photo I shot last week.

 

Most of us have observed an eagle either carrying a good sized fish or other prey that he is taking to a seat on the other side of the restaurant to eat in peace.

 

Though there are special circumstances when an eagle can carry heavier prey, most scientists estimate the physical make-up of an eagle makes anything over a half dozen pounds very difficult to lift.

 

Scientists measure grip strength using various terms such as pounds per square inch (PSI). One of the testing instruments they use is a dynamometer.

 

The average hand grip strength of an adult man is measured around 70 PSI, a woman typically measures in the mid-40s (unless they were raised on a farm and milked cows).

 

Researchers at HawkQuest in Colorado estimate an eagle’s grip strength is at least 10 times that of the human hand which enables them to pick up prey and lock their talons into it as they fly.

It is opening, slowly but sure. Let it flow and fill. Just enjoy of what we have now and live through.

This vacant barn sandwiched between a storm and peeks of the sun, gives off a calm assurance that it has persevered through many storms. My German father raised 8 kids on a small farm, never had much and faced a lot of challenges. But he instilled in us a phrase, "we'll get through it" that still serves us well.

 

Young man was getting tired toward the end of the session and I caught this expression.

Vacation finally arrived and my husband, Bernie and I went out to visit Bonaventure Island. This Quebec Provincial Park, located in Percé Quebec, is the largest Northern Gannet colony in North America.

 

Gannets are members of the sulidae family. Over 125,000 Gannets arrive at Bonaventure Island in April to reproduce.

They mate for life, each year returning to the same nest, both parents take turn brooding their single egg during 45 days.

 

The pairs greet each other ceremoniously whenever one of them returns from sea.

 

In October, the gannets depart for the Gulf of Mexico.

 

These magnificent seabirds symbolize lifelong faithfulness.

Making a portrait from time to time, makes me feel happy.

Especially when it comes unexpected: This lady was sitting in her window, looking for fresh air, which she couldn't find in her dark and far from airy city apartment.

A lifeboat and a tug wait patiently for their seasonal duties at Penn's Landing on the Delaware River in Philadelphia.

This Peregrine Falcon was less than 2 months old, It fledged a couple days before,and was flying around the nest more confident each day. Impressive how quickly this one , and two other siblings developed.
