We were up in the Houston area for a wedding shower and decided to check out the famed bolivar peninsula. We got up early and headed out to high island. This sunrise backlit shot of a great egret was one of the first shots I took after setting up.
Another shot from the Joshua Tree Park series. This is not the well known Skull Rock, but I found this one lookin a bit like a skull as well. The trees made for a nice frame.
Like the Mandarin Duck and very similar looking the Wood Duck has also escaped into certain areas in the UK but far less well-established. A mostly silent duck and native to North America where they live in wooded swamps and will nest in holes in trees, these ducks are one of the species of duck that are equipped with strong claws that help to grip bark and perch on branches.
I'm like a bird, I only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
And baby, all I need for you to know is
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is
All I need for you to know is-
Your faith in me brings me to tears
Even after all these years end
And it pains me so much to tell that you don't know me that well
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true
Taken at ELVION

Eingebettet zwischen Fels und Fluss bietet das malerische Örtchen Essing eine der eindrucksvollsten Kulissen im Altmühltal. Während sich im Rücken senkrecht auftürmende Kalksteinfelsen befinden, auf denen die Burgruine Randeck thront, wird das Tal von einem Altwasserarm der Altmühl eingerahmt.
Die Figur zeigt Josef Deifl aus Essing als Infanterist. Er lebte von 1790 - 1864 war ein schlichter Mann und Eisenarbeiter der sein Leben in einem Buch niedergeschrieben hat. Allerdings nicht in dem üblichen Sprechdeutsch oder Buchdeutsch, sondern einfach wie ihm der Schnabel gewachsen ist, inklusive Schreib- und Sprachlehrfehler.
Nestled between rock and river, the picturesque village of Essing offers one of the most impressive backdrops in the Altmühl Valley. While in the back there are vertically towering limestone cliffs on which the ruins of Randeck Castle are enthroned, the valley is framed by an oxbow of the Altmühl.
The figure shows Josef Deifl from Essing as an infantryman. He lived from 1790 - 1864 was a simple man and iron worker who wrote down his life in a book. However, not in the usual Sprechdeutsch or Buchdeutsch, but simply as he grew his beak, including spelling and language teaching errors.
When you see how fragile and delicate life can be, all else fades into the background.

As you can see the Kingfisher's eye is protected by a membrane (knipvlies in Dutch). Despite the membrane the Kingfisher can stil see under water.

Another cherry blossom from last year's visit to TV Asahi Cherry Blossom Alley at the Mauerweg between Berlin and Teltow. This year's cherry blossom has only just begun because we're having a fairly cold spring (with the exception of this weekend, but the cold will return tomorrow), and in a small street around the corner that is lined with lovely cherry trees, the blossoms are only just about to fully open.
I've photographed this blossom with the GRIII. The 28mm focal length GR lens is very sharp and it's also an amazingly good close-up lens, but at f2.8 as the widest-open aperture, it can be tricky to get a nice background blur. Here, the blossom was popping out amidst many other blossoms, so the backdrop was very busy and distracting. Since I liked how the blossom itself had turned out (apart from the fact that there's a good amount of blur right at the center – Sharpen AI dealt with that in a satisfying enough way so it's pleasant to look at, I think), I had to do something about the background. I didn't simply want to blur it out in LR or even completely remove it in PS because I liked the springy-fresh colours of the background, so I created two layers in PS, one with the blossom only, the other with the complete image, and opened the latter in Analog Efex where began to play around with the Zoom filter and the Dust and Scratches filter palette. As finishing touches I added the thin image border and hit the Primary Color sliders in LR. I hope you like this candy-coloured cherry blossom slider :)
Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone!
June 3rd, 1am. We are on the road, looking around for potentially good spots for some more astrophotos. In essence we are "chasing" the stars. While I was driving and the girls had their own small talk with several issues to resolve as usual, I spotted a small abandoned house on the side of the road, next to the sea. Literally next to the water with small waves breaking just in front of it. Quick stop and out to see what we got. Five minutes later we are all out there taking night photos of Hydra, the island across that beach! Seen and been there on this island several times in the past, but this time it was different. We were looking at the island and saw it like we had never seen it before! What can I say... We live in a tough world yet a magical one as well!!!
