Sometimes use a fisdheye lens can help to achieve some stunning results from a lot of "canonical" shots.
When I bought my Sigma 15mm f/2.8 FE, I was planning something totally different, something I haven't still realized, but one day I will.
Anyway, since that day I never left my small toy at home, and when I see some peculiar features in a panorama or in a landscape that can "do the job", I don't hesitate to take some shots with it.
Then, here's another "fisheyed" image, a view of the Grand Canyon, close to Mather Point, with a voluntarily exagerated earth curvature, to emphatize more the greatness of the place I was watching before me.
Evertything thanks to my little friend... Do you think it makes its job?

L'insouciance de la jeunesse. Bien que m'ayant repéré, ce faon n'a pas hésité à traverser le pré en venant vers moi. Peut-être voulait-il m'impressionner 😊
The carelessness of youth. Although having spotted me, this fawn did not hesitate to cross the meadow coming towards me. Maybe he wanted to impress me 😊

I hesitated to post this poor picture, but it is Life Bird #255, so...
Lark Bunting (Calamospiza melanocarys) is not a lark, and it is not a bunting. It is a sparrow, and for some reason, it is Colorado's State Bird. This is the first one I have seen in six trips to the Denver area. I asked a park ranger why this small, uncommon bird would be a state bird. Her explanation was that it is fairly common in the eastern agricultural areas of the state, where most of the state legislators were from when the lark bunting was chosen.
This bird was only seen for the few seconds needed to take this picture in the grasslands of Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge. And then, it flew off not to be seen again.

While trying to photograph a yellow throat near Rehoboth Bay, Delaware, this little guy stopped by for
s snack. It was foraging in four-foot high plants on the edge of marsh grass on the bay. The bird stayed long enough to allow a front shot too shown in comment 1 below to aid identification.
Photographing warblers is fairly new to us so identification is basically done by web picture analysis, therefore, suspect. If you have comment on the identification of this bird please do not hesitate.
During my last visit to northern Iraq in 2012, I discovered this lake and beautiful nature when I was exploring the region, so I did not hesitate to capture this scene!!

This song has been "burning" inside me since its release in 2010. Just a few years earlier I experienced three intense and lasting losses in my real life that have left immutable marks on my soul. I've tried several times to express this in SL photography but can never seem to capture the emotion anywhere as deeply as Stone Sour does with their song. Please take a moment to watch this video (again) and remember that some losses help to direct us but they don't have to define us.

You were my fire, so I burned, 'til there was nothing left of me
I, I touched your face, I held you close, 'til I could barely breathe
Why give me hope, then give me up, just to be the death of me
Save the rest of me
'Cause I see you, but I can't feel you anymore, so go away
I need you, but I can't need you anymore, you hesitate
I hesitated quite a while whether I should post this one:
I have almost exactly the same shot from exactly 3 years and 2 days ago.
You find it here in my stream:
It has been explored at that time and got quite many favorites, but I was never really, really happy, as the quality (details and noise) is some of the worst in my whole stream. So if you compare them at full resolution, you should notice that I have meanwhile impoved both skills and equipment - well, let's say skills, I don't think that I can really blame the equipment I used then ;-)

My latest ANIMAL VIDEO (warning, it's a bit shocking): www.youtube.com/watch?v=4T2-Xszz7FI
You find a selection of my 80 BEST PHOTOS (mostly not yet on Flickr) here: www.lacerta-bilineata.com/western-green-lizard-lacerta-bi... (the website exists in ESPAÑOL, FRANÇAIS, ITALIANO, ENGLISH, DEUTSCH)
ABOUT THE PHOTO:
So this photo is a bit of a novelty for me - at least here on Flickr, but it's also a journey back in time in a sense. I've always loved b/w and sepia photography; already as a very young teenager I would go out into the woods with an old Pentax Spotmatic (which I had nicked from my father) whenever it was a foggy day to shoot b/w compositions of sunbeams cutting through the ghostlike trees.
I used films with a sensitivity of at least 1600 (for those of you who remember what that means 😉 ), and the resulting photos had an incredibly fine grain which I loved; I blew them up to the size of posters and hung them on the walls of my teenage man-cave next to Hendrix, Jim Morrison and Slash.
But then I abandoned photography altogether for 20 years, and when I finally picked up a camera again, it was one of the digital kind. Now neither film nor grain played any role in my photographic endeavours - let alone b/w compositions: because the reason I fell in love with shooting pictures once more was the rare and incredibly colorful lizard species that had chosen my garden as its habitat.
It's this species - the Lacerta bilineata aka the western green lizard - that my photo website www.lacerta-bilineata.com/ and also my Flickr gallery are dedicated to, but I've since expanded that theme a bit so that it now comprises the whole Lacerta bilineata habitat, which is to say my garden and its immediate surroundings and all the flora and fauna I find in it.
I like that my gallery and the website have this clear theme, because in order to rise to the challenge of portraying all aspects of a very specific little eco system (which also happens to be my home of sorts), it forces me to constantly explore it from fresh angles, and I keep discovering fascinating new motives as my photographic journey continues.
Which brings me to the horse pasture you see in this photo. This playground for happy horsies lies just outside my garden, and it normally only interests me insofar as my green reptile friends claim parts of it as their territory, and I very much prefer it to be horseless (which it thankfully often is).
Not that the horses bother the reptiles - the lizards don't mind them one bit, and I've even seen them jump from the safety of the fly honeysuckle shrub which the pasture borders on right between the deadly looking hooves of the horses to forage for snails, without any sign of fear or even respect.
No, the reason I have a very conflicted relationship with those horses is that they are mighty cute and that there's usually also foals. The sight of those beautiful, happy animals jumping around and frolicking (it's a huge pasture and you can tell the horses really love it) is irresistible: and that inevitably attracts what in the entire universe is known as the most destructive anti-matter and ultimate undoing of any nature photographer: other humans.
Unlike with the horses, the lizards ARE indeed very much bothered by specimens of loud, unpredictable Homo sapiens sapiens - which makes those (and by extension also the horses) the cryptonite of this here reptile photographer. It's not the horses' fault, I know that, but that doesn't change a thing. I'm just telling you how it is (and some of you might have read about the traumatic events I had to endure to get a particular photo - if not, read at your own risk here: www.flickr.com/photos/191055893@N07/51405389883/in/datepo... - which clearly demonstrated that even when it's entirely horseless, that pasture is still a threat for artistic endeavours).
But back to the photo. So one morning during my vacation back in May I got up quite early. It had rained all night, and now the fog was creeping up from the valley below to our village just as the sky cleared up and the morning sun started to shine through the trees.
And just as I did when I was a teenager I grabbed my camera and ran out to photograph this beautiful mood of ghostlike trees and sunbeams cutting through the mist. There had already been such a day a week earlier (which is when I took this photo: www.flickr.com/photos/191055893@N07/51543603732/in/datepo... ), but this time, the horses were also there.
Because of our slightly strained relationship I only took this one photo of them (I now wish I had taken more: talk about missed opportunities), and otherwise concentrated on the landscape. It was only later when I went through all the photos on my computer that I realized that I actually really liked those horses, even despite the whole composition being such a cliché. And I realized another thing: when I drained the photo of all the color, I liked it even better - because there was almost a bit of grain in it, like in the photos from my youth.
Since then I have experimented quite a bit with b/w and sepia compositions (some of which I will upload here eventually I guess), but this photo here is the first one that helped me rediscover my old passion. I hope you like it even though it builds quite a stark contrast with the rest of my tiny - and very colorful - gallery. But in the spirit of showing you the whole Lacerta bilineata habitat (and also in the spirit of expanding my gallery a bit beyond lizards and insects), I think it's not such a bad fit.
As always, many greetings to all of you, have a wonderful day and don't hesitate to let me know what you think 😊
~Angel eyes why do you gaze
Eveytime I loose my way

Or it will all fall down

My latest ANIMAL VIDEO (warning, it's a bit shocking): www.youtube.com/watch?v=4T2-Xszz7FI
ABOUT THE PHOTO:
When I started out on this photographic journey of mine, I was usually already more than happy if I managed to capture the subjects I desired - in most cases lizards, snakes and insects - at all, and if I even ended up with a photo where the animal was in focus, I was over the moon.
The creatures I wanted to get on camera - particularly the western green lizards (Lacerta bilineata) - tended to be so nervous, shy and hard to even get near, that asking for more than a sharp picture seemed out of the question.
Over the years, this has changed; as I learned to approach the fauna in and around my garden without scaring it away, I was no longer content with "just" getting it on camera: I wanted to portray these fascinating creatures in a way that revealed something about their nature.
What I mean by that is that I now try to make photos where the viewer discovers something about the animals that is only possible through photography, something we otherwise wouldn't be able to perceive, because we either don't get close enough to the creature or it happens too quick for us to notice - or the animal is simply too small to reveal its "character" to us.
An important aspect of that is that the viewer is able to form a connection with the subjects in my photos, and in most cases the key to achieving that is getting a shot where the animal directly looks at you. Because that is the experience of nature photography that I love so much: just as I observe these beautiful creatures and am fascinatd by them, they in turn are observing me with a keen eye and seem to be wondering about my nature and my intentions.
This engagement between the photographer and the living being on the other end of the lense is thrilling, and it made me realize particularly when I started to dabble in macro photography that all creatures - even the tiniest ones from flies to spiders to ants - have a personality I wasn't aware of before.
Once I was able to see their eyes and the way they looked at me as I was looking at them, I started to perceive them as characters with a "soul" (for lack of a better word); an "inner life" that we humans are often unwilling to see in the creatures we are all too ready to ignore, or worse: step on and exterminate without giving so much as a second thought.
So my ultimate goal is to not just show you a well-composed photography of an animal in perfect focus (although that too would be desirable 😊): I want the personality of the subject in the photo to shine through; I want my protagonist to reveal its character to you.
I don't know if I succeeded at this with the photo at hand, but I was really happy to get the moment where this beautiful common drone fly (Eristalis tenax) had turned its head at an angle of 90%. The tiny fella was cleaning its head from some pollen, but while doing that it made sure it always had me in its sight. The movement of the turning head was so quick that only one shot - this one - ended up being sharp enough to be usable.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the photo. As always, many greetings from Switzerland and have a lovely weekend everyone - and don't hesitate to let me know what you think. 😊

“I think we live in a time where are people very tidy and afraid of what others might think. They hesitate in expressing their views and opinions. So being original is rare. For me, it's about living the life you create for yourself, to create your kingdom. I think we should work on being our unique selves and becoming our greatest versions. I like to remind people to take the power to live their life the way they wish.
Just remember life is all an illusion, it's your creation and you can dismantle it and re-create at will. And the day you were born you were given power to create yourself and the world around you”

UN ESCALIER POUR OUTRE-TERRE
“L’imagination nous conduit souvent dans des mondes qui n’ont jamais existé,
mais sans elle, nous n’irions nulle part .”
― Carl Sagan
Le visiteur hésita …
Un silence glacial balayait l’austère étendue d’un lac gelé.
Qui s’étendait devant lui, au-dessus de l’Escalier.
Ce passage obligé menait du monde réel à Outre-Terre,
Un univers de mondes imaginaires d’hier et de demain.
L’Escalier lui-même défiait la raison
Et la motivation de ceux qui s’aventuraient
Au-delà de cette muraille improbable.
Le Visiteur jeta un dernier regard à l’Escalier,
Comme s’il était impatient de s’affranchir de sa vie de tous les jours.
Puis poursuivit son chemin vers Outre-Terre,
Terre de tous les mystères, de toutes les épopées fantastiques, de ces futurs qui nous font, parfois, regretter le présent.
Le voyage dont il serait le héros ne faisait que commencer.
________________
Nous connaissons les frontières du monde réel.
Du moins, nous le croyons.
Mais, ici, au royaume de l’imaginaire,
Ces frontières sont…inimaginables.

A STAIRWAY TO OUTLAND
“Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were, but without it we go nowhere.”
― Carl Sagan
The visitor hesitated ...
An icy silence swept over the austere expanse of a frozen lake
That stretched out in front of him, above the Stairway.
This obligatory passage led from the real world to The Outland,
A universe of imaginary worlds of yesterday and tomorrow.
The Stairway itself defied reason
And the motivation of those who ventured
Beyond this improbable wall.
The Visitor took one last look at the Stairway,
As if he was eager to break free from his day-to-day life.
Then continued on his way to the Outland
Land of all the mysteries, of all the fantastic epics, of these futures which sometimes make us regret the present.
The journey of which he would be the hero had only just begun.
________________
We know the boundaries of the real world.
At least we believe so.
But, here, in the realm of the imaginary,
These boundaries are… unimaginable.

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a red day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Macro Mondays is star.
Whenever you see a shooting star, sailing on the sky, dont hesitate ! Make a wish very quickly !! Of course, if you can catch the star it is even better: you will have endless wishes for as long as you keep your shooting star safe… Those shooting stars are very, very rare and fast so you will be extremely lucky if you catch one… But wouldn’t that be awesome to have your own shooting star ? Keep your eyes on the sky my friends !
FYI : my star is about 1,5cm wide.
While you think about the possibility of owning your own star, I have to grab a coffee just before my video meeting !! See you soon my friends !
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!

How much more are we supposed to tolerate
Can't you see there's more to me than my mistakes
Sometimes I get this feeling makes me hesitate
I believe
She won't take me somewhere I'm not supposed to be
You can't steal the things that god has given me
No more pain and no more shame and misery
You can't take me down
You can't break me down
You can't take me down
You can't break me down
You can't take me down
You can't break me down
I can see a place of trouble
And I'm on the verge
For the love of everybody
I did something wrong
Now I feel some days of trouble (I would stay way)
In the hospital (I would stay way)
For the love of everybody (I would stay way)
But behind a wall (I would stay way)====

A little story behind this pic.
I had never met Madison (Maddy) before we did this, although I've been a big fan of her work for so long. I'd asked a couple of mutual friends what she was like and both of them just raved at how nice she was. Well they were't lying. lol We talked that first night for over an hour and I'm just tickled to call her a friend now. If you get a chance to collab with this gorgeous lady don't hesitate. She's amazing. So a big thank you goes out to Madison Degado for posing with me.♥
This capture was taken at Luane's World - Le Monde Perdu - Summer 2022
Sending out a big thank you to Luane Meo for providing us with some of the most gorgeous locations in SL to take our pics. I don't know Luane personally but anyone who would open up a place they work so hard for, and pay for is very special.♥
Watching every motion
In my foolish lover's game
On this endless ocean
Finally lovers know no shame
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn around and say
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Watching I keep waiting
Still anticipating love
Never hesitating
To become the fated ones
Turning and returning
To some secret place to find
Watching in slow motion
As you turn to me and say
My love
Take my breath away
Through the hourglass I saw you
In time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed I called you
And turned to hear you say
If only for today
I am unafraid
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Watching every motion
In this foolish lover's game
Haunted by the notion
Somewhere there's a love in flames
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn my way and say
Take my breath away
My love
Take my breath away
My love
Take my breath away
My love
Take my breath away
My love
Sleeping in the mountains in Ibitirama
It is the point chosen by the majority to spend the night before going up to Pico da Bandeira on the Espírito Santo side. It is well structured, has sinks and benches, male and female toilets, a clean and organized area for the tents, wooden tables and benches spread out for visitors. It has no electric light. A good point of support for resting before the climb, for sure, but if it gets too cold during the night, don't hesitate to follow the advice of the locals: go inside the toilets, you'll certainly be more sheltered and protected from the cold. Also beware of the raccoons that frequent the place looking for food.
PS 1 Don't forget to pack food well to avoid unpleasant surprises.
PS 2 The fogs come very fast. We didn't have sunset that day. On the one hand, it was good, as we did the reconnaissance trails without sun.

Merci énormément pour vos commentaires, ils sont toujours très appréciés.
Signe que le printemps est vraiment arrivé, les renards roux sont beaucoup plus actif, et même beaucoup plus tôt en début et fin de journée. Ils aiment bien se balader sur le lac encore tout blanc de neige au début u mois d'avril. Plutôt inusité, j'ai constaté qu'ils, car il y en a 3 qui viennent me rendre visite, aiment bien les graines de tournesols qui sont tombés au sol et n'hésitent pas à creuser pour les trouver.
Celui-ci que je soupçonne d'être un mâle se tenait à bonne distance par cette fin de journée très enneigée.

Thank you very much for your comments, they are always very much appreciated.
A sign that spring has really arrived, red foxes are much more active during the days light, much earlier at the end of the day. They like to walk on the lake ice still white with snow at the beginning of April. Rather unusual, I noticed that they, because there are 3 of them who come to visit me, like sunflower seeds that have fallen to the ground and do not hesitate to dig to find them.
This one, which I suspect to be a male, stood at a safe distance on this very snowy early evening.
A light was requested for these islands by Sir John Clayton in the late 17th century and by Captain J Blackett in 1755. Unfortunately both were rejected as the Elder Brethren of Trinity House were unable to obtain the consent of the affected parties to pay a toll for the maintenance of the light. However, in 1826 it was found essential to construct a lighthouse in the Farne Group on the Longstone Rock.
The lighthouse—designed and built by Joseph Nelson—is a red and white circular tower built of rough stone with iron railings around the lantern gallery. The light originally came from the Argand lamps with 12 burners, parabolic reflectors 21 inches in diameter and nine inches deep and a catadioptric optical apparatus.
The island was a bleak situation to endure and the isolation must have been terrible, often storms were so bad as to drive the family into the upper rooms of the tower to seek refuge, the waves being so enormous that they covered the living quarters.
Longstone Lighthouse is most famous as the scene of the Forfarshire wreck and the exploits of Grace Darling, a daughter of the keeper in charge. In September 1838 the steamer Forfarshire, bound from Hull to Dundee, went aground on Hawkers Rocks, about a mile from the Lighthouse, when 43 people were drowned; the stern portion of the vessel being split off and carried away in the storm. The forepart, to which clung the survivors, remained fast on the rocks. At daybreak William Darling, the keeper, and the fishermen ashore saw the wreck, but the waves were beating against the rocks so much that the fishermen thought it impossible to attempt a rescue and even Darling hesitated. He was finally persuaded to make the attempt by his daughter, with her as the second hand in the small lighthouse boat. On reaching the wreck after a terrific struggle they brought back four men and one woman in their frail open boat and later a further four survivors; all 9 had to be accommodated and fed at the lighthouse for two days until the storm abated and they could be taken to the mainland. This gallant action made Grace Darling and her father famous.
Let winter break
Let it burn 'til I see you again
I will be here with you
Just like I told you I would
I'd love to always love you
But I'm scared of loneliness
When I'm, when I'm alone with you
I know it's hard
Only you and I
Is it all for me?
Because I know it's all for you
And I guess, I guess
It is hell and you are the only thing I've ever truly known
So, I hesitate, if I can act the same for you
And my darlin', I'll be rooting for you
And my darlin', I'll be rooting for you
