Please enlarge to see the waves !

Along the Pickering Lakefront pathway the high water has washed out some of the path itself and many of the trees that were close to the shoreline. A long exposure (with a 10 stop ND filter) smooths out the waves of Lake Ontario for a shot that has a lot more atmosphere than I originally thought it would have. Cheers.

Het Apeldoorns Kanaal is een kanaal In Nederland. De waterweg loopt van de IJssel bij Dieren naar de IJssel bij Hattem en is in Apeldoorn door dammen met duikers afgesloten. Het had van 1868 tot en met 1961 de functie van "lateraal kanaal" parallel aan de IJssel. Bij lage en hoge rivierstanden was de IJssel zeer moeilijk te bevaren wegens onvoldoende vaardiepte, respectievelijk sterke stroom. De route via het kanaal was dan, met name voor kleine schepen, ook zeer aantrekkelijk.

 

Het kanaal heeft nog steeds een functie in de waterhuishouding van het gebied, het voert water af naar de IJssel van diverse Veluwse sprengen en beken, zoals de Oosterhuizerspreng en de Vrijenberger Spreng.

The Apeldoorns Kanaal is a channel in the Netherlands. The waterway runs from the IJssel near Dieren to the IJssel near Hattem and is closed off by dams with divers in Apeldoorn. From 1868 to 1961 it had the function of "lateral canal" parallel to the IJssel. The IJssel was very difficult to navigate at low and high river levels due to insufficient sea depth or strong current. The route via the canal was then, especially for small ships, also very attractive.

 

The canal still has a function in the water management of the area, it drains water to the IJssel from various Veluwe spits and streams, such as the Oosterhuizerspreng and the Vrijenberger Spreng.

I took this today in Blackmud.

I used the extender on the 100-400 which gave me 560mm.

Usually pretty soft but this one turned out not bad.

I used a bit of exposure comp as I was shooting into the sun, but I may have overdone it, because I cannot tone that backlight down.

..a wee bit of wifi discovered on Kangaroo Island! Such a treasure trove of stunning scenery, nature...last day tomorrow. Wishing all flickr friends well, I am missing regular contact.

Rising up, rising high

Filling the hole in the sky

Spreading the clouds

Spreading them wide

Slipping deep , deep inside

The opened hole, up in the sky

That swallows the hardness thrusting high

A nervous grizzly cub on high alert clings to its mother's back in a sedge grass meadow, Khutzeymateen estuary, BC. The cub has learned from its mother that male grizzly bears are dangerous (they can kill unrelated cubs) and when the pair are feeding in the open they always are alert for the presence of danger from males in the vicinity.

I found this pond partially frozen pond in the high Sierras outside of Oakhurst. I took pictures in different locations around the pond trying to get the right look. This was one of my favorites from the shoot.

Where in this wide world can man find

nobility without pride,

Friendship without envy,

Or beauty without vanity?

Here, where grace is served with muscle

And strength by gentleness confined

He serves without servility;

he has fought without enmity

. There is nothing so powerful, nothing less violent.

There is nothing so quick, nothing more patient.

~Ronald Duncan, "The Horse," 1954

It's been quite awhile since I visited and shot High Falls. Yup...it's still as awesome as I remember. The lighting was very challenging, as the sun was directly in front of me and and high in the cloudless sky. Unfortunately, to get the water exposed properly, I had to underexpose the rest of the scene. I did bracket my shots, but honestly, didn't take the time to combine them.

The We’re Here challenge for 21 October 2016 is to post an appropriate photo to the group High Key Society. I thought it would be interesting to create a high key Halloween image – the opposite of the usual high contrast, vivid colors of the holiday.

High Brown Fritillary - Argynnis adippe

  

This large, powerful butterfly is usually seen flying swiftly over the tops of bracken or low vegetation in woodland clearings. In flight, the males are almost impossible to separate from those of the Dark Green Fritillary, which often share the same habitats. However, both species frequently visit flowers such as thistles and Bramble where it is possible to see their distinctive underside wing markings. The Dark Green lacks the orange ringed 'pearls' on the underside of the hindwing.

 

The High Brown Fritillary was once widespread in England and Wales but since the 1950s has undergone a dramatic decline. It is now reduced to around 50 sites where conservationists are working to save it from extinction.

Common Dog-violet (Viola riviniana) is used in all habitats, but Hairy Violet (V. hirta) is also used in limestone areas. It may occasionally use Heath Dog-violet (V. canina) and Pale Dog-violet (V. lactea).

All is relative: the Black-shouldered Kite flew low, yet the bee danced far above.

This great EMD lash leads the manifest SUPNTW south and west over the Hinckley Sub over the Net River trestle through Holyoke.

 

Catching a green SD60 leading has been on the list for some time, and even though the weather was awful, I'll take it.
