Sorry... just been enjoying myself! I manually focussed to try and emphasise the light reflecting off the water. I've never actually intentionally done this before, it's just maybe happened if I've been focussing on something floating/swimming on the surface. It was quite tricky as I was shooting into the sun that although was low-ish in the sky was still very bright, probably not a great idea as I was seeing stars for a while after!

The shipwreck of the cargo ship the Plassey on the Aran Island of Inis Oirr. It was shipwrecked in a storm in 1960 (all the crew were rescued) and has lain here every since (I think it’s been moved around by storms). For anyone who’s seen the comedy series Father Ted - this is the shipwreck in the credits at the start! For more about the Plassey and Inis Oirr:

Old tractor at Swanton Farm, just north of Santa Cruz, California. I usually make a stop here when I'm on a coast drive for a cup of coffee and to buy a jar or two of fresh strawberry jam.
Angel Pose II - I've noticed this male Anna's Hummingbird on the same perch next to the trail the past couple years while looking for Bobcats. I've taken photos of him frequently the past few weeks. he was especially cooperative and the lighting was perfect to bring out his gorget. I really like this "angel pose" that they do before liftoff.
