This female puppy has a distinguishing feature of having a mask-like black fur around her eyes, which same black fur is also on her two ears, while the rest of her body is pure white.
My nephew gave it recently to my wife, and she was, and still is, very happy to have it as a new member of our family.
Taken in Subic, Zambales, Philippines.
Of the three Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe's at the 74th Members Meeting, two appeared to be new/newly restored examples, this one shown here in the grey finish, and another running in a bare metal condition.
Both, by the end of the weekend, appeared to be suffering some chicane damage, having brushed the wall a little too closely and creating some slight front end scrapes and creases to show for it.
It does show how close to the edge these drivers are when racing, and how every millimetre advantage is used.
This shot was taken at the run in to the start-finish chicane, somewhere that you don't get access to during the Goodwood Revival, so it was nice to try a little bit of panning from here, and to be doing so in a left to right direction for a change.
I've no history on this car, some may come to light over the coming weeks but for now I'll leave it at that.

A member of the beautiful sunbird family with an extra long beak and often confusing in the wrong angle since it looks like the very common Purple Sunbird. However, the beak is visibly longer with a slight curve that helps it suck nectar from flowers that require a deep beak. The breast area also sports a maroon band which is visible in this shot, but easily missed otherwise.
The bird prefers habitats around this Lion's tail flowering plant in winters and love that plant nectar. This is endemic to India and found in thick forest and woodland areas with good amount of wild flowers.
A burst of sunlight on a cloudy day gave me this nice clean shot.
Many thanks in advance for your views and feedback.
A member of the pea family, these are the remains of the seed pods of Broom. They release the seeds from their pods with an explosive split that throws the contents out. What remains in the autumn are lifeless, dried shells seen here.

It is a member of the bird family Columbidae (doves and pigeons). In common usage, this bird is often simply referred to as the pigeon. The domestic pigeon descended from this species. Escaped domestic pigeons have raised the populations of feral pigeons around the world. Wild rock doves are pale grey with two black bars on each wing, whereas domestic and feral pigeons vary in colour and pattern. Few differences are seen between males and females. The species is generally monogamous, with two squabs (young) per brood. Both parents care for the young for a time. Habitats include various open and semi-open environments. Cliffs and rock ledges are used for roosting and breeding in the wild. Originally found wild in Europe, North Africa, and western Asia, pigeons have become established in cities around the world. The species is abundant, with an estimated population of 17 to 28 million feral and wild birds in Europe alone. 23361

There are several Sufi orders in Senegal.
The Xaadir (Qādiriyya) is the oldest and founded in Baghdad by the Sufi mystic Abdul Qādir al-Jilānī in the 12th century, now pan-Islamic, spread to Senegal in the 18th Century.
His portrait is at the far left, with his name in Arabic :
عبدالقادر الجيلاني
The members of this family probably belong to this Muslim brotherhood.
The most important brotherhoods in Senegal are:
- The Xaadir (Qādiriyya), the oldest, founded in Baghdad by the Sufi mystic Abdul Qādir al-Jilānī in the 12th century, spread to Senegal in the 18th Century.
- The Tijaniyyah, the largest in membership, founded in Fez, Morocco by the Algerian born Cheikh Sīdī 'Aḥmad at-Tijānī.
- The Mourides, the richest and most active, founded by the Islamic leader Cheikh Ahmadou Bamba (1850–1927) of French West Africa, now Senegal.
- The Layene are a smaller Sufi order, centered at Yoff, north of Dakar.
I will try to found out about the other portraits, but I had understood that they were Gilani's son and grandson. ( no, I don't think so)
If you know, let me know!
searching, but: Cheikh Hadramé est né en 1910, sept ans avant la disparition de Cheikhna Cheikh Saadbou. Son père est Cheikh Sidibouya le premier fils de Cheikhna Cheikh Saadbouh.

Usually found on the way into the woods good old brambles, nuisance for many months of the year, but come the autumn the blackberries make for a lovely pudding! HMM all. Taken late one evening last week just as we entered the golden hour.
Thanks for the faves & comments

We have a new member. Please welcome Cosmo Noel-Jenkins to the Flickr family. Playing with my new lens. I'm in love. <3 with new lens and Cosmo.
A member of the swallow family and a small bird around 13 cms long. These are common in our neighbourhood and several places with cliffs, edges and bridges. They are resident birds in the country and parts of South East Asia.
Its been a long target for a decent shot - not just flight shot. But they are hard to get on good perches. The birds fly a lot and catch their food / insects on the wing that results in a terribly erratic flight path. Shooting them is a test of skill and I have always struggled before - with a longer lens it has become even harder now - both to focus as well as holding the lens.
During the weekend, we couldn't get any other birds, so spent the time shooting several swallows including Barn, Wire Tailed, Red Rumped, Streak Throated and this. Managed only a few good shots out of 3 hours and came back with a terrible sore shoulder.
Many thanks in advance for your views, faves and feedback - Very much appreciated.

The image was taken less than the 3". By moving in closer this allowed me to focus on the weave and pattern of the scarf.
Happy Macro Mondays.
The young stallion like to ask for help in the pleasant dilemma which faces: which of the two "top models" mares surrounding chose as erotic companion.

Πατουλιά Τρικάλων Patoulia Trikala
on my blog ΛΟΓΕΙΚΩΝ Logicon
Τα πανέμορφα αυτά άλογα είναι μέλη ενός μικρού κοπαδιού το οποίο ζεί ελεύθερα στα λιβάδια της Πατουλιάς Τρικάλων μπροστά από το διακρινόμενο στο βάθος αρχοντικό.
Πρόκειται για παλαιά κατοικία τσιφλικάδων(υποστατικό ή κονάκι) με αναγραφόμενο έτος ιδρύσεως το 1903 και μεταφέρει νοσταλγικές μνήμες αφού εκεί γυρίστηκε η θρυλική ελληνική ταινία “Το χώμα βάφτηκε κόκκινο”
Αυτό είχαμε πάει να επισκεφτούμε μαζί με την σύζυγο όταν προέκυψε και η συναρπαστική προαναφερθείσα συνάντηση με τα αξιοθαύμαστα ζώα.
These beautiful horses are members of a small herd that lives freely in the meadows of Patoulias Trikala in front of the mansion in the background
It is an old residence of landlords,its year of foundation is 1903 and carries nostalgic memories because the legendary Greek film "The soil was painted red" was shot there.
That's we had gone to visit with my wife when the fascinating aforementioned encounter with the adorable animals occurred.
Explored ..!!
