High in the Cedar tree an American Goldfinch (Spinus tristis) leans to his right to get a better view of something!
Attended my first closed circuit cycling event yesterday.....the Pepper Place Criterium here in Birmingham. Fantastic stuff. Best part is that most of the races took place between 4 and 8PM. Great light for photography. This is one of the only shots I have ever posted directly from the camera...no PP at all. The light was that good. This may be a little underexposed. I think this photo is a good example of why sports shots can turn out well at 2.8. Really allows you to isolate a subject. Anyway, cheers. Hope everyone had a good weekend.
Sometimes we all need a little support regardless of where it comes from.
Thanks to the following for elements of this image:
Last weekend on my sunflowers and sunset tour I visited a little farm in Longmont, CO. The Bee Hugger Farm is small, but what it lacks in size is made up for with its charm and eccentric clutter, the sunflower patch, and the wonderful couple that enthusiastically welcomes each visitor and encourages the cutting of sunflowers to take home. It was a lot of fun wandering around discovering the hidden gems in and around the old barn. The couple said the farm was first built around 1900.
against the oak tree, sat my camera on the bark & snapped the photo. Then I leaned back a bit & snapped another pic.
Shot at the Båstnäs car cemetary close to the Norwegian border of Värmland, Sweden.

The weight of the snow on two of this pine tree's branches makes it appear that the tree is leaning on the fence for support. View On Black LARGE

Listen and watch....
Taken on a beautiful day in the Peak District with Tony (Guy@Fawkes) back in late July last year. We did NOT climb up that hill! :o)
pure sunglow ~ mobile pic ~ tried to free it ~ but no way its attached at each other ~ so I better leave it that way:)
Prince Edward Point Bird Observatory is the penultimate stop on the road to Point Traverse, home of the lighthouse that for decades helped ships navigate the many points jutting into Lake Ontario. In the centre of these points lies Long Point Harbour (there seems to have been a problem settling on names for the Point). Around the harbour (all of this is easily viewed on google maps, if one looks up the observatory) are the remains of a small settlement of huts and homes for people working the fishing vessels - empty now but not abandoned (a complex legal battle continues).
The Leanic remains an active commercial fishing vessel on Lake Ontario, though it immediate future has been compromised by extremely low water levels on the Lake. One can see, if you look to the stern or the left of the image, that the ship has had its mobility compromised by very low water levels in the harbour. This is likely very bad news for the people who work the ship and the customers who buy its fish, including whitefish, a great delicacy in Ontario (at least for those of us living away from easy access to them!).
Those water levels have however been a boon to birders. The area around the harbour is always very rich in migratory birds, from Golden Eagles to Eastern Bluebirds, depending on the season. During my recent visit to my good friend Paul, which was informed by strict adherence to distancing protocols, we paid a visit just before the sun went down to scope out the activity prior to a dawn visit the next morning. The e-bird checklist Paul recorded for our scramble around the Point the next morning is here: ebird.org/checklist/S75911598
The low water levels meant that a small group of Greater Yellowlegs had taken up residence in the harbour, scouring the now-exposed bottom of the harbour for food before migrating south. These birds were quite a find because (a) it was November, in Ontario, and (b) because there had been very little shorebird activity around Ottawa because of the opposite problem: very high water levels on the Ottawa River.
This image was taken just before sunset on the day of my arrival, and one of the unphotographed highlights was a juvenile Northern Shrike attacking the Yellowlegs (failing to kill anything, but giving us all a great jolt). Yellowlegs images to follow.
I'm glad i have you to lean on. I love you, Zack ♥

This was a trip of two parts: the stormy days at the beginning of the trip (the images I have shown so far) and then much more sunny days in the second half of the trip. On these partially cloudy days I had some fun with long exposures, like this one.
Near Vulcan, Alberta, Canada.

Came across this amazing house last weekend....I think the bank has quite the "lean" on it (hahaha).
Must have been quite the house in it's day...would love to know the history on it.
Managed to make it out last Sunday morning to checkout the heather at this West Sussex heathland in the South Downs National Park.

I've been thinking about this - "Leaning In" as the famous book suggests. This phrase has inspired discussion, debate, influence, inspiration. What does it mean to be a woman and to lead? How does one be a strong woman and still be feminine? Why are these even questions in the first place?
We, as people, have the power to define ourselves and create our lives, no matter who we are, where we come from or what our circumstance might be in this present moment. If life is hard, keep pressing forward, because the tough parts won't last forever and there's always a rainbow after the storm.
Those of us that have seen suffering, trials, tragedy, pain - so all of us - are capable of bringing light and love to others, in order to elevate all of us. Open your heart, open your mind, find your passion, love to the fullest. I wish all the happiness in the world to you. <3

No surprise to the state's gardeners, Massachusetts has just released a report saying this is the driest Summer on record...and the hottest. But even short-lived thunder storms provide enough rain to give things a little boost - so we're not completely without flowers. This is a gorgeous dahlia that somehow managed not only to bloom in the dry heat, but to thrive.

Wanted to show a little love to the local area tonight. These fieles will be all dry and chopped here in a week or so. They sure to look good while they last though. Cheers.
I've always wanted to try something like this since I first saw this image by Brooke Shaden and I finally got the chance when I worked with Hans!
an apple a day, right? ;)
