A Classic autumn view of Somerset Levels. It is common to find mist on the Levels after a cold, clear night during spring and autumn. As the sun rises in the morning layers of mist start fleeting across the plains towards the coast.

I decided to go with a b&w approach this time as the color version was a bit too yellow. Also b&w improved the visibility slightly making the mansion in the foreground appear clearer.

Thanks for views & comments.

This was taken in a butterfly house. Where are the butterflies in Britain?

"Wildlife experts have ...warned that butterfly numbers could reach their lowest ever summer levels because of the effects of two washout summers in a row."

It's official. The UK experiences the least amount of sunshine during August since records began and temperatures only once breaking through the 70°F gauge.

The Somerset Levels are a coastal plain and wetland area of Somerset, England, running south from the Mendips to the Blackdown Hills.

The Somerset Levels have an area of about 160,000 acres and are bisected by the Polden Hills; the areas to the south are drained by the River Parrett, and the areas to the north by the rivers Axe and Brue. The Mendip Hills separate the Somerset Levels from the North Somerset Levels. The Somerset Levels consist of marine clay "levels" along the coast and inland peat-based "moors"; agriculturally, about 70 per cent is used as grassland and the rest is arable. Willow and teazel are grown commercially and peat is extracted.

Looking down the abandoned slate cutting shed on Australia level at Dinowriwc Quarry. I've heard it said that Ektar doesn't show the colours of Dinorwic that well, but in fairness the light was incredibly flat on the day due to the mist and rain.

Stairs lead up to the lower level of lower Wacker in Chicago. Below the busy city, stalagmites hang from the ceilings as pigeons roam the streets.

The High Level Bridge is the proper name of the Lethbridge Trestle Bridge and 314ft up (96m) it almost looks fragile. However, 98yrs later it still carriers trains shortenning their route by 5km; it's reason for being. From this angle it does not even look like a train bridge, it looks more like a high wire act during twilight in some forgotten circus.

Florida Red-bellied Turtle - Tosohatchee Wildlife Management Area, 3365 Taylor Creek Rd, Christmas, Florida

'Don't know how they do it, but the Eye's on these guys always seem to be level. Eye think it must have something to do with suppressing glare on the surface of the water where they do most of their looking.

But how does the eye orient itself?

Is it a conscious or subconscious muscle controlled mechanism?

Or,

does the eye "float" and it's simply heavier on the bottom side?

Or,

do they use visual input and consciously tilt their heads to reduce glare?

Only the turtle knows for sure,

that is is they're even conscious of it.
