Marking time - The abandoned fishing trawlers at Salen on the Isle of Mull under a moody, dark and brooding sky.
There is a melancholy beauty to these wrecks as they mark the passage of time, slowly rotting, crumbling to an ever perilous state of decay; hinting at an existence and former island life that once was.
A Hebridean tradition, boats are often left to decay on the shoreline where they come to rest at the end of their working lives.

The skull-like marking on the thorax of this beast of a moth make the Death's-head Hawkmoth unmistakable. In olden times, this moth was regarded as an omen of death; Atropos was one of the Fates that cut the thread of life! The moth featured in the movie "Silence of the Lambs".
This species is mainly regarded as an immigrant moth, recorded in small number most years in southern Britain, but there are occasional sightings of the huge larva which grows up to 125mm.

Overnight...
A sudden snow storm dropped several inches of wet snow overnight, trees heavy laden with the white snow bowed their branches low to the ground under the weight

There aren’t many car parks with a grating surface and 5 metres of clearance underneath.

I never got to post an image for June 11th's theme of "Hand Tool". Off all the things in the workshop, this may be one of the more mundane items in the shop, but it gets the most regular use. HMM!!
After rubbing on his scent, it was time to mark his territory. Big cats - little cats - all the same.
3 sucessive sunrise trips have left me a tad, erm, fatigued! Oh well, you have to search out the right light sometimes...
This is a shot from this morning's early rise - although the clocks have changed the body still thought it was 4am when I woke up.
Off the beach past Minehead harbour are the remains of the old pier, marked to warn boats of their position. As the twilight brought forth some nice colours, a long exposure of the water breaking over the boulders gives a ghostly look...
Fall Gathering…
From the top of the ridge, there is a set of wooden stairs combined with a rather long boardwalk that takes you to the lake below; the stairs make the descent to the lake much faster and is a better way to get there than following the road which takes you around the lake where the terrain is not as steep.
There was a lot of leaves on the stairs and this shot is of a pile of leaves that was on one of the many steps as we made our way down.

Today is an in-between day. One day more, and it will be the Winter Solstice here in the Southern Hemisphere. One day the other way, and I received my new lens! I've only had three mini-plays with it. One just after unpacking it last night (dark). One at 2.30am this morning, after I finally gave up trying to go to sleep until I'd had another wee play (dark). And one this afternoon after work. Gloomy, but at least I got to play outside!

This is a close-up photo of coloured chalk markings on a sidewalk. The colours looked even more vivid as it had just rained.
The Pied Hoverfly is quite large between 10 to 15mm in length and the patterns on the Pied Hoverflies are white, with the markings looking similar to a comma on a black background, the face is yellow with reddish brown antennae and the eyes are covered in hair. The males eyes do touch in the centre but the female’s eyes are separated.
River otters leave scent marks on vegetation within their territory. Scent marking is done by either urinating, defecating or by emitting a strong, musky odor from the paired scent glands near the base of their tail.

Marking 15 remarkable years of ContraptioN with this exceptional anniversary piece, which was given to group members as a free gift to celebrate the milestone. The hooded figure looming behind me is an absolute masterpiece. It is a fully animated avatar attachment, and the attention to detail is truly incredible. A huge thank you to ContraptioN for such an outstanding anniversary gift.
For those curious about the process, this shot was captured entirely in-world. No AI generation or AI enhancements were used, just traditional virtual world photography. I finished the image with a few subtle adjustments in GIMP to bring out some of the finer details and reveal the textures in the clothing and shadows.
I believe that my first safari to South Africa was my third or fourth safari. I had only been in East Africa on safari. I quickly learned that the likelihood of seeing different African species increases when you go to different areas and countries.
On this safari, I had a female guide who could hold her own against any male guide. Despite the fact that she had worked in the bush for years, her excitement on game drives was infectious. When we saw this antelope, the Nyala, she screamed out a huge "WOW!"; the words "So RARE" followed. Okay, I said to myself take pictures. Again I thought, I will see others. along the way. WRONG!!! I should have taken 20 more shots. Rare, means RARE!
Documentation provided by my daughter when visiting a while back...my own image of the scene uploaded a few days ago and shown in comments. Kind of an interesting interplay of the two shots.
