One of the adult sandhill cranes showing the colt how to pull corn kernels from a husk of corn...a really neat experience to watch.
The fawns are learning to graze. Still reliant on momma's milk, though. Yearling buck behind this fawn. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
"Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well the good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I've started out, for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there
I'm learning to fly, around the clouds,
But what goes up must come down
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing"

Learning to Fly
Still getting used to the Mamiya RB67. its weight, its pace, and the way it makes me approach a photograph.
These were made at Arthi, a factory I know well, on Fomapan 100. I’m still figuring out the visual language of the RB67, but I’m beginning to enjoy how much it forces me to slow down, observe, and accept a little uncertainty.

…I assume this is a forerunner of sailing and a good place to start and learn how to harness the wind. Missing the sea already - I want to go back, this was taken at Coverack on the Lizard in Cornwall. Have a great week folks, Alan:-)…..

Mountain Goat kid and its buddy, a yearling, on the edge of their world atop Mount Evans, Colorado. The yearling seemed like a good buddy to all the kids in this group, playing with them and watching them while the nanny goats foraged.

Visto il caldo, stamattina sono rimasto a riordinare alcune fotografie nel mio archivio e mi sono imbattuto in una sequenza della cometa Neowise, transitata nei nostri cieli esattamente 6 anni fa.
In questo intervallo di tempo la mia conoscenza del software di elaborazione per astronomia ha fatto numerosi progressi: Siril, Graxpert, Sequator e anche altri. L'utilizzo di questi programmi mi ha permesso di ri-elaborare immagini di archivio evidenziando molti più dettagli di quanto ero riuscito a fare con tradizionali programmi. Le informazioni erano sempre state lì, nel file raw, ma avevano solo bisogno di una tecnica nuova per essere riportate alla luce, così come un più naturale bilanciamento dei colori.
Questa foto ritrae appunto la cometa Neowise con le due code, ioni in blu e polveri in bianco-giallo, mentre punta la direzione del Sole, poco prima dell'alba, sul monte Grappa. Penso sia una delle più belle che io abbia realizzato su questo spettacolare visitatore del cosmo.
Buona giornata

After a long day of swimming in the adriatic sea the young boy takes a minute to look what the big boys do.

that not-at-all-good feeling when you discover an error that requires taking the needles out and unraveling half of your work so far. but such is learning…
One more from April. One of the eaglets watching and learning how to fly with confidence.
Thanks all for your wonderful comments sent my way from yesterday's post and words. After writing about the eagles in the morning, sharing it on Flickr, we headed out to the eagle's nest. To my surprise and delight, for the first time this year, the Mom and Dad Eagle (Lucy and Ricky) were feeding a newly hatched eaglet or two.
Happy Happy New Year.

“I’m sure the man is becoming slower and more uncertain with every occasion he has to use that picture taking thingy with three legs.” Said Posh Bear smiling as he watched the picture taker set up.
“Yes, Posh, it will be a relief when I don’t do this ever again.” Said Sky.
“Are you going to refuse then, Sky, when he does this next time?” Asked Barnaby in awe.
“No, Barnaby, but I probably won’t be here. I have been talking to Ellie and she was telling me that I should get myself “edicated”. So, that is what I might just do.”
“I think you mean educated, Sky.” Said Posh Bear.
“That as well, I think. I want to be so clever that I can talk to the buzzy things.”
“Anyone can talk to the buzzy things, Sky, it is just a shame they don’t seem to understand what bears say.” Added Bertie, yawning at the thought of all that learning.
“How do you think you are going to do that, Sky? I mean, learn things like talking to buzzy things.” Asked Barnaby.
“It is very easy actually, Barnaby, you just need to know where to go and what sort of things you want to learn.”
“Interesting, so, where do you go, Sky?”
“Ellie says it is a big place lots of walks away and is called a universal, I think, and there you can get all the leans that you want.”
“Wowsers, Sky, that sounds very good. So, you only need to ask them for learns on buzzy things and they give them to you and you come back edicated?” said Barnaby.
“Not quite, Barnaby, but very close. Ellie was saying that this place has lots and lots of learns, so whatever you wanted to learn you just press one of those buttons the man has on his picture viewing thingy and all the learns you want come tumbling down before you. I think.”
“Wowsers and double Wowsers, Sky, that sounds amazing.” Said Bertie getting excited.
“Doesn’t it just.” Replied Posh Bear smiling.
“What do you do with all these learns once you have them, Sky? I mean you can’t just carry them around with you in a bag and if you did, well, how you would find the one you need when you wanted it?” Asked Barnaby scratching his head with his paw. “And, how would you know what you needed if you didn’t know what the learn was about in the first place?”
“Simple, Barnaby, when I get the learns about buzzy things, I’ll also look for a button thingy that shows one how to store them and find them again. These places don’t just have learns about buzzy things; you know?”
“You’re so clever, Sky, I wish I was clever like you.” Said Barnaby full of admiration of his best friend.
“Thank you, Barnaby, and soon I’ll be even more cleverer and then ever cleverer still on top of that.”
“Sky, it doesn’t quite work out like that. I think that Ellie got it slightly wrong.” Said Posh Bear softly.
“What do you mean, Posh? Ellie said she knew.” Replied Sky looking slightly worried.
“The places are called Universities and are for hoomans, not us bears. Also, hoomans are taught what they wish to know by other hoomans called professors who in turn were taught all they know many sleeps before. It isn’t instant, these things take lots and lots of sleeps and is often a total waste of time, because after all that learning the hooman doesn’t put it to use.”
“So, how do us bears get learns, so we can be clever?” Asked Barnaby.
“We use life to learn things, Barnaby, like Sky just now for he has learned a big lesson in who to learn from. Elephants are very clever at elephant things but they don’t understand bear things. If you want to know bear things then you should always ask an older bear.”
Sky looked sad as he thought about what Posh had said but then he quickly brightened up.
“Posh, as an old bear, can you teach me how to speak with the buzzy things please?”
“No Sky, but I can tell you this, watch the buzzy things and learn what they do and then we’ll all be the wiser for what you learn. In the meantime, everyone should try and smile and then we can share that big jar of honey that I have put by, for after the man is finished.”
“Think honey.” Whispered Sky to Bertie and Barnaby and they both forced a smile.
When I found my first green tiger beetles (Cicindela campestris) I was astonished to see how fast they were running , but pretty soon I managed to at least get some decent photos of them even though I was nowhere near 1:1 magnification.
Practice makes perfect though so eventually I figured out how to get close so this is a shot taken using the Canon MP-E65mm lens set to 2.2:1 magnification which I would have considered ridiculously close at the beginning.
