One of nature’s most spectacular sights it's rutting season again

We dragged ourselves out of bed hoping to see some action and we weren't disappointed

These two had rounded up their respective harems and it was a head on confrontation

The drama and noise as they locked antlers meant we had more than enough photographs to look at over a hot cup of coffee when we got home

* When we visited Oxford we stayed in the village of Iffley it was a good choice it has a stunning Romanesque church and there are a number of historic buildings. It feels more like a village than a suburb of Oxford. Its possible to walk into Oxford along the banks of the River Thames it took us about 40 minutes from this Lock to walk into the centre of the city

Iffley Lock is a lock on the River Thames in England near the village of Iffley, Oxfordshire. It is on the southern outskirts of Oxford. The original lock was built by the Oxford-Burcot Commission in 1631 and the Thames Navigation Commission replaced this in 1793. The lock has a set of rollers to allow punts and rowing boats to be moved between the water levels.

In addition the lock and weir streams there is stream further to the east which used to be the Mill Stream.

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.

When operating this lock at the Grand Union Canal in Watford you would notice two things: one, this is an extremely solid device and all hand-made. Two, you need a big steel handle and a lot of elbow grease to operate this lock. This is yesterday's technology, so forget about your mobile phone or your remote control. Photographically speaking, I had taken a small and very light camera (Fuji X-E3) and an even lighter all-rounder (pancake) lens when exploring Cassiobury Park in Watford where you have the River Gade and the Grand Union Canal in the centre. It was a surprise to myself that I found that my most interesting shots were not panoramas of the river or so, but these close-ups of human design.

This Northern Gannet is locked on to its target and beginning its dive for a nice juicy fish.

Off the coast of Cayo Santa Maria, Cuba, the shallow clear water provide easy sight for the Pelicans to spot their prey. Up and down the beach pelicans can be found flying slowly against the breeze looking for fish. When they spot one they climb and then dive straight down into the water. This brown pelican was locked in mid dive on his way to catch a little lunch.

From the west side of the Arkansas river the pedistrian bridge is now closed, the last shot as they are removing it piece by piece for a new bridge to connect to the Gathering Place on the East side of the Arkansas river.

Macro Mondays - Keyhole

Samsonite suitcase lock, measures 3/4". Image measures 2" on the long side. The lock is on top of a lavender container with holographic paper in the background. I used a small flashlight to light the keyhole.

Happy Macro Monday!
