Soft pastel tones of the dawn sky at Dovercourt, Harwich UK. Longish exposure to smooth the water out using the 10 stop ND filter and almost a cloudless sky to complete the minimalist look.
My monitor lizard isn't faring so well during quarantine. Without my office's computer monitor to lounge on, he's losing his color. That is not a healthy pink.
Kudos to this video for instructions on easily isolating a color in Photoshop. Its focus is on red, but it works for any color or combination.
Memories of Maui!! It was a wonderful island to visit and spend some quality time. Would definitely like to return one of these years.

A very short stop off on the route from Fljótsdalshérað through to Hofn.
The weather was ....interesting. Lots of rain and fog.
I needed to stretch my legs ,so parked up for a few minutes. At first the hills in the distance were simply not there (to much fog and mist) then suddenly it cleared a little and I could see the landscape materialise in front of me.
Iceland what an amazing place to visit.
As the moon rose above Spitbank Fort it emphasised the isolation of the location. The former sea defence turned hotel is only 2km off Portsmouth but looks like it could be anywhere... or nowhere.
Single exposure using borrowed 50D w/ 100-400L. Minor exposure & contrast adjustments only; uncropped.

This was taken on a recent visit to Shellness to see the birdlife on this isolated part of the Isle of Sheppey. These shacks were spotted and looked a good subject. After trying several views I settled on this one which gave a sense of the wider landscape, on the boundary between land and sea. Used Nik Siver Effects Pro emphasise the sky and the marram grass.

Parson's chameleons are very stationary animals, and are not hard to photograph.
Wikipedia- The Parson's chameleon (Calumma parsonii) is a large species of chameleon that is endemic to isolated pockets of humid primary forest in eastern and northern Madagascar.
A long-lived species, C. parsonii may not reach sexual maturity until they are 3 - 5 years of age and may live to be more than 20 years old. C. parsonii are native to the primary rainforests of the elevated eastern area of Madagascar, up to an altitude of about 7,000 feet. However, their range extends all the way down to the eastern coast, where trade winds bring moisture ladden air to the land.
Adults may go for long periods without moving except to eat, drink, mate or deficate. They also do not spend much time basking, like many other true chameleons. They will, however, sit in the sun for short periods and slightly flatten one side of their body toward the sun. These sunning sessions are rarely more than 10 - 15 minutes long and usually take place early in the morning as soon as sun is available.
Near threatened according to the IUCN red list. The loss of humid forest, mainly through conversion from slash-and-burn agriculture but also due to logging, is a threat to this species. Much of the habitat of this species is extremely fragmented, and small forest fragments are unlikely to be viable to ensure persistence of this large chameleon that occurs at low densities.
After Chicago & North Western sold its lines between Milwaukee and Green Bay to Fox River Valley, two of its lines were isolated: from Duck Creek (Green Bay) to Escanaba and Ishpeming, and Duck Creek to Wausau. The lines to the north were sold to WC after the UP takeover, but the Wausau line was eventually torn up.
In the summer and fall of 1992, C&NW used FRVR (ex-C&NW) GP30s, plus some of its own GP7/9s to serve to isolated line. The line was 10 mph, with trains running east and west and meeting at Shawano. On Sept. 24, 1992, this is the eastbound WUGBA crossing the WC (ex-Soo) at Shawano, Wis. after meeting the westbound.
The strands of crystal beads hanging behind the bench reminds me of a brief downpour before the sun appears again. I can also imagine it being a waterfall. Anyway, this is a lovely place to sit and enjoy the surroundings.

I'm not entirely happy with this shot; it doesn't pop as much as I'd like but this shot has a very limited window to capture so I figured I'd just try today and see what happens.
Not perfect, but it does show off some of the autumn colours.
This is 4 photos stitched together so an oddly shaped panorama but it frames the tree nicely so I think it works.
Anyway, hope everyone has had a good day.

Isolated cumulonimbus playing with my nerves ... Active every 15 min, when it fills up then throw out 1-2 lightning and wait, just thinking about picking up and going home and boom and so good for 3 hours!
After a cloudy day all over Lisbon and longing for some pictures before my trip to Moçambique, I decided to challenge my friend Sergio Silva and "take a jump" to the coast to take the "belly of miseries".
On the way we became hopeful, because the sky was fully loaded and the wind ( a little strong ) gave them the right direction.
Arrived at the first spot there were no clouds on the horizon, another attempt to catch them southern and once again, no clouds ... damn !
This record was really to justify the miles made and ,you might ask for the clouds, yes ... were there but behind us ^_^
