The wonderful thing about Tiggers.....
A crisp winter walk with the bouncing canine enjoying taking Mrs Nikon for a walk!!!
National Trust's Stourhead is imfamous for its gardens, especially in the Autumn. Although they have not peaked as yet, the Autumn colurs are starting to become evident in the October sunshine.
stanotte ho lavorato ...
non ho resistito all'impulso di portarmi dietro macchina e cavalletto ...
alle 5 del mattino, sul lungomare di Bari ...
... per Bradley, Francesca e Salvatore ...
"volate con gli angeli"
When the suns early morning rays peeked through the trees behind me, they lit up the rocks in the foreground. This helped complete the framing of the beautiful Autumn colored trees of Trout Lake.
The word linked is often used in reference to a connection between two items or situations. In this case, the notion that rail connects us through transportation. Or more literally, as a connector from one point to another such as a landmass.
With the turmoil caused by recent events, the movement of goods across our nation stands waiting while negotiations complete. An age old story of those with, and those disgruntled who want. Somewhere in between is that which is linked; that also completes the flow.

Whooper Swans that have travelled to the now quickly melting Finland as we go into spring looking for locations to breed for the upcoming months, taken with the Canon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS USM not the ideal lens for wildlife photography but a superb choice for travel to cover the landscapes to the wildlife, in a second.

Two fishing vessels lay moored at the Porpoise Bay Warf and sit in shadow. Alternately, the hills are lit with the remnants of the setting sun, blazing in opposition to the dark, while both reflect their position.
It is sometimes odd what we find when we go for a walk in the forest. The thought reminds me of an old song with a line, "If you go out in the woods today, you're in for a big surprise". A short distance into one of the few walks I have come to enjoy is this oddity. An abandoned VW and Toyota. How they got there is an oddity of its own because of the surrounding old growth preventing entry. However after finding them, they became an opportunity for a rather unusual photo.
The north side of False Creek is laden with apartments and condominiums. Who would have thought that living there could be so very colorful
On this Autumn day, angled light lit up the seasonally changing trees as if plugged in. And, Coniferous trees remained dark like the walls of an old house. However, as if a window opened on the far side of this old house, the sunlight touched the center of the island to the right.
The magic of this place was now hinting that the image was ready to be taken. When the sunlight later filled the dark green, the show was complete and this old house once again was filled with the light of day. But, for just a while, pockets of light revealed the magic that lay otherwise hidden.
Sometimes I wonder about the rhythm of nature. When I see this Autumn coloured forest, there appears to be multiple patterns to capture. I can even conjure up the notion that as a photographer I am somehow responsible for the result.
However, it is more often finding order in the chaos. Next year around this time, I expect the same trees will colour up in a similar fashion and the rhythm of nature will continue on its never ending path.
After catching the ferry in the setting light, (2 posts back) a few clouds were then lit by a beam that was streaking across the mountain tops.
When composing this shot, the various elements were in need of one additional item. The initial image contained the trees, their side lighting, the water and the reflections. It seemed good, but somewhat static. Then, as I felt a gentle breeze blow on me, it also touched the surface of the water and made the photo much more dynamic. The one missing element in this now complete picture, was the wind.
The snow covered pier at Sechelt looks out into the ocean, toward the setting sun. A long cloud colours up for a few minutes and halos the pier. It is cold but in a day or so, it will be gone when it rains and the temp rises.
On my way back from a mountain shoot, it was necessary to stop at the side of the road to capture this spectacular sight. The sun rays were strong and covering a distant area. The finely manicured farm field in the foreground was in the shadows. And, since it was sunset, the horizon lit up with the traditional yellow and golden hues.
There is likely a poem that might express this better, but when I stop and open my eyes, there is so much to see. After catching a shot elsewhere, I was on my way home when purposely turning down an unknown street to search for more possibilities. When returning to the main road, I stopped to get my bearings, and closed my eyes for a moment.
Parked at the side of the road and looking up, I noticed the hint of this wonderful, albeit veiled waterfalls. Grabbing for my gear that had been stowed away, I was now prepped to simply cross the road. Getting closer and looking through the trees, this wonderful treasure began to reveal itself. It was gushing with water which is strange, because we have not had rain for many weeks. Perhaps sometimes, the best course of action can be too slow down, with eyes wide open.
