ACTIVE BIRDS, and not common as the name suggests, are found in dense forests and mangroves, I found them very hard to photograph as to their jerky fast movements, love seeing them.

Decided it was time to get outside for a solitary walk with Nature. Sometimes that’s not easy to do in my neck of the woods. But on this occasion, it was just me and my Egret.

(November 5. 2020)

 

The elegant Great Egret is a dazzling sight in many a North American wetland. Slightly smaller and more svelte than a Great Blue Heron, these are still large birds with impressive wingspans.

 

They hunt in classic heron fashion, standing immobile or wading through wetlands to capture fish with a deadly jab of their yellow bill. Great Egrets were hunted nearly to extinction for their plumes in the late nineteenth century, sparking conservation movements and some of the first laws to protect birds.

 

Great Egrets fly slowly but powerfully: with just two wingbeats per second their cruising speed is around 25 miles an hour.

Though it mainly hunts while wading, the Great Egret occasionally swims to capture prey or hovers (somewhat laboriously) over the water and dips for fish.

 

The oldest known Great Egret was 22 years, 10 months old and was banded in Ohio.

Στην γαληνη της Λιμνοθάλασσας 2.

Οι Ψαρόβαρκες οι πελάδες (τα καλυβάκια των ψαράδων) και τα Ιβάρια όπως βλέπουμε στην εικόνα ( οι πασσαλόπηκτοι φραγμοί από δικτυωτό πλέγμα για τον έλεγχο των μετακινήσεων των ψαριών και την αλιεία), είναι τα πιο χαρακτηριστικά αξιοθέατα της στην περιοχή Τουρλιδα που είναι η είσοδος προς την Λιμνοθάλασσα του Μεσολογγίου.

Γενικότερα η λιμνοθάλασσα του Μεσολογγίου είναι ένας τόπος με σπάνιο φυσικό κάλος και όμορφο οικοσύστημα!

  

In the tranquility of the Lagoon 2

The Fishing Boats the pelades (the huts of fishermen) and the ivaria as we see in the image (the ram blocks from lattice to control the movements of fish and fisheries), is the most typical sights of the curlew area is the entrance to the lagoon of Messolonghi.

Generally, the lagoon of Messolonghi is a place with rare natural beauty and beautiful ecosystem!

“You need to spend time crawling alone through shadows to truly appreciate what it is to stand in the sun.” ― Shaun Hick

 

And if to-night my soul may find her peace

in sleep, and sink in good oblivion,

and in the morning wake like a new-opened flower

then I have been dipped again in God, and new created.

 

And if, as weeks go round, in the dark of the moon

my spirit darkens and goes out, and soft strange gloom

pervades my movements and my thoughts and words

then shall I know that I am walking still

with God, we are close together now the moon's in shadow.

 

And if, as autumn deepens and darkens

I feel the pain of falling leaves, and stems that break in storms

and trouble and dissolution and distress

and then the softness of deep shadows folding, folding

around my soul and spirit, around my lips

so sweet, like a swoon, or more like the drowse of a low, sad song

singing darker than the nightingale, on, on to the solstice

and the silence of short days, the silence of the year, the shadow,

then I shall know that my life is moving still

with the dark earth, and drenched

with the deep oblivion of earth's lapse and renewal.

 

And if, in the changing phases of man's life

I fall in sickness and in misery

my wrists seem broken and my heart seems dead

and strength is gone, and my life

is only the leavings of a life:

 

and still, among it all, snatches of lovely oblivion, and snatches of renewal

odd, wintry flowers upon the withered stem, yet new, strange flowers

such as my life has not brought forth before, new blossoms of me,

then I must know that still

I am in the hands of the unknown God,

he is breaking me down to his own oblivion

to send me forth on a new morning, a new man.

 

- D.H. Lawrence, Shadows (1930)

Minhas melhores fotos de 2022:

Estas são minhas 30 “melhores” fotos de 2022, feitas e/ou publicadas neste ano (algumas são de 2021). O que estão achando??? Mas por que isso? Todo ano, em dezembro, faço a seleção das minhas fotos favoritas do ano. Não se trata de auto elogio, mas sim de um exercício básico na fotografia, a seleção, interessante para revermos nosso trabalho, perceber o conjunto da obra de um ano, e ainda ter uma seleção pré-pronta caso precise. Claro que essa nunca é uma escolha definitiva, sempre que eu rever as fotos vou ver outras, mas enfim, é preciso fechar uma lista. Se achou que tinha alguma foto minha que merecia estar aqui, me fale por favor.

 

My 2022 best photos:

These are my 30 “best” photos of 2022, taken and/or published this year. What are you guys thinking??? Every year, in December, I make a selection of my favorite photos of the year. This is not self-praise, but a basic exercise in photography, the selection, interesting for us to review our work, understand the whole work of a year, and even have a pre-ready selection in case you need it. Of course, this is never a definitive choice, whenever I review the photos I'll see others, but anyway, it's necessary to close a list. If you thought you had a photo of me that deserved to be here, please let me know.

Long exposure shot of the sea from the Devon section of the South West coast path.

The Small Ground-Finch is one of the most common and highly adaptable, as well as widespread of the Darwin’s Finches of the Galapagos Islands. In towns and villages they are found foraging on dusty margins of streets and act very much as would a House Sparrow (Passer domesticus) in other parts of the world. Yet in higher and moister areas they may be seen perched on a Galapagos Tortoise, waiting for bugs or seeds to be uncovered by the movements of the large reptile. This is the smallest and smallest billed of the ground-finches and thus it eats the smallest seeds available.

I've heard a lot of arguments about how movements should be separate because they might have different histories, have different goals, or different means of arising at these goals.

 

But all of those arguments ignore something extremely crucial that I don't want any one of you to miss: Some people don't have a choice. For some, the very notion of acceptance of their full existence is in jeopardy. How can we ask any human to give up a part of themselves or prioritize? Would we do that? We are the sum of many identities and all should be celebrated.

 

I also strongly believe that working together will accomplish a lot more. If you support LGBTQ rights, you should also absolutely support Black Lives Matter and vice versa. The oppression of the masses is controlled by a powerful few. It is their agenda to get different races and oppressed groups to fight against each other.

 

So, if you are saying, for instance: "Well, I support gender equality but I don't support Black Lives Matter" then you're wrong. Those two statements cannot exist in reality without a terrible combustion. We all must fight for this movement and put aside our own personal agendas that are poisoning our spirits.

 

If you do not stand with the oppressed, you do not stand with humanity.

Splendid Fairy-wren

Scientific Name: Malurus splendens

Description: The breeding plumage of the male is predominantly blue, varying from cobalt-blue in the east of its range to violet-blue in the west.It has black bands at the base of the tail (absent in the violet-blue birds), across the breast and from the beak, through the eyes to join a band across the back of its neck. Its crown and cheek patches are paler blue. Wings and long tail are brown with a blue wash. His beak is black and his legs and feet are brown-grey. In non-breeding plumage, called eclipse, he is very similar to the female, being pale brown above and buff to white underneath although he retains the blue wash on wings and tail. The female does not have the blue wash on her wings, but does have a reddish-tan line from beak to eye that extends into a ring around her eye. Her beak is reddish-tan.

Similar species: The male in breeding plumage is quite distinct but in eclipse he is similar to the males of other fairy-wrens in eclipse. A faint wash of blue on male wings during eclipse distinguishes this species from others. The female is similar to females of other fairy-wren species, but has a bluer tail than most.

Distribution: These birds are widely distributed across Australia in two areas. One area is from about Shark Bay south through WA, through SA except the coast to about the Flinders Ranges and the southern and central parts of NT. The eastern area include SA from the Flinders Ranges, the far north-western tip of Vic, NSW east to about Moree and Balranald and south central Qld.

Habitat: These birds live in arid to semi-arid areas, in mostly dense shrublands or woodlands of acacia, and mallee eucalypt with dense shrubs.

Seasonal movements: These birds are mostly sedentary, defending a territory all year, but the younger females may disperse to another territory. In some areas they are semi-nomadic, depending on local conditions.

Feeding: Like most of the fairy-wrens, Splendid Fairy-wrens eat mostly insects and forage on both the ground and in shrubs. They live in groups which forage together.

Breeding: The Splendid Fairy-wren female builds an oval domed nest of dry grass, strips of bark and rootlets, with an entrance two thirds of the way up one side. The female is the only member of the group to incubate the eggs, but all members of the group feed the chicks.

Calls: A rapid series of slightly metallic, high-pitched pips that blend into an "undulating" call.

Minimum Size: 12cm

Maximum Size: 14cm

Average size: 13cm

Average weight: 9g

Breeding season: mostly September-December, but can extend from August to April

Clutch Size: 2 to 4, mostly 3

Incubation: 15 days

Nestling Period: 11 days

I do apologize for so many bee-eater pictures. They are one of my favorites and I just can't pass them by whenever I see one. My hope is that you will agree!

 

Wikipedia: The Asian green bee-eater (Merops orientalis), also known as little green bee-eater, and green bee-eater in Sri Lanka, is a near passerine bird in the bee-eater family. It is resident but prone to seasonal movements and is found widely distributed across Asia from coastal southern Iran east through the Indian subcontinent to Vietnam.

Mirage

by Cristina Vega and Pablo Losa Fontangordo

Madrid, Spain

Mirage has been designed to react to the movements of the sun and the people. Depending on where the visitors are positioned, they will see either a red transparent sun setting or a light and bright rising sun laying on the horizon. As they walk closer, they will discover the thin structure that makes these two simultaneous realities possible.

Here is the composition I was focused on as the full moon rose over the horizon, but I hope you can see what was grabbing my attention. This photo is a composite of three images blending the best of the movement, waves and seagulls.

While discussing the various hand movements that we use when creating Pano-Sabotage ( or TumbleWorld ) images, Paul Ewing and I shared a few different views on how this medium really stands out for its radical creation of images INSIDE the camera itself, as opposed to post camera manipulation outside of the device.

 

Something that occurred to me that as I moved the camera around in the air, wobbling it, swooping it, arcing it, I realized that I was in fact drawing the image with the movements of my hand. Only now instead of the medium being at the end of a brush, pencil or conte stick, it's IN the camera itself, while the drawing is occurring in three dimensional space.

 

The iPhone camera directly responds to the movements of my hand and thereby shapes the image. This is drawing to me. It happens in real time, as any pencil drawing does, but the piece itself is manifesting from the combination of hand movements and camera function INSIDE the camera. In order to do that, then, I have to move the iPhone camera around in 3D - hence, "Drawing in Space".

 

Once again, and not so oddly for us, Paul and I hit upon the same thing at pretty much the same time again recently. His black and white image of himself passing by a shop window in Prescott, Arizona, using this technique, happened at almost the same time as I did this one. Both images have the ghostly presence of their creators within them. Synchronicity?

"PANO-Vision" 's First Anniversary is coming up on August 26th, when Professor Ewing and I are going to launch a newly revised award code and a brand new banner for the group's home page. I want to publicly thank Skagitrenee for her enormous help with coding and technical assistance in "PANO-Vision". She's done a lot to get us up and running and in preparing for the First Anniversary. Stay tuned. ;-)

Backyard bird

 

Wikipedia: The white-throated kingfisher (Halcyon smyrnensis) also known as the white-breasted kingfisher is a tree kingfisher, widely distributed in Asia from the Sinai east through the Indian subcontinent to China and Indonesia. This kingfisher is a resident over much of its range, although some populations may make short distance movements. It can often be found well away from water where it feeds on a wide range of prey that includes small reptiles, amphibians, crabs, small rodents and even birds.

 

Conservation status: Least Concern

On one of the first deliveries of Metrolink’s EMD F125s, one of the engines wheels seized up causing the wheel set to wear down and derail along with 8 other cars on the manifest it was traveling on. After this unfortunate situation, BNSF decided they would only move them if they were on special movements, such as this one where BNSF No.7304 slowly maneuvers its way off the passenger fly-over with 2 brand new EMD F125s in tow heading to Metrolink’s Keller yard for interchange.

This is one of my gallery pieces being shown at Obsession Exposed gallery now!

Stony Brook Harbor - Long Island New York

Goldfinch - Carduelis Carduelis

 

On closer inspection male goldfinches can often be distinguished by a larger, darker red mask that extends just behind the eye. The shoulder feathers are black whereas they are brown on the hen.In females, the red face does not extend past the eye. The ivory-coloured bill is long and pointed, and the tail is forked. Goldfinches in breeding condition have a white bill, with a greyish or blackish mark at the tip for the rest of the year. Juveniles have a plain head and a greyer back but are unmistakable due to the yellow wing stripe. Birds in central Asia (caniceps group) have a plain grey head behind the red face, lacking the black and white head pattern of European and western Asian birds. Adults moult after the breeding season with some individuals beginning in July and others not completing their moult until November. After moult birds appear less colourful, until the tips of the newly grown feathers wear away.

  

The goldfinch is native to Europe, North Africa, and western and central Asia. It is found in open, partially wooded lowlands and is a resident in the milder west of its range, but migrates from colder regions. It will also make local movements, even in the west, to escape bad weather. It has been introduced to many areas of the world. It was introduced to Canada, United States, Mexico, Peru, Argentina, Chile, the Falkland Islands, Uruguay, Brazil, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand, in the 19th century, and their populations quickly increased and their range expanded greatly. They now occur from Brisbane to the Eyre Peninsula in Australia, and throughout New Zealand.

  

Because of the thistle seeds it eats, in Christian symbolism the goldfinch is associated with Christ's Passion and his crown of thorns. The goldfinch, appearing in pictures of the Madonna and Christ child, represents the foreknowledge Jesus and Mary had of the Crucifixion. Examples include the Madonna del cardellino or Madonna of the Goldfinch, painted by the Italian renaissance artist Raphael in about 1505–6, in which John the Baptist offers the goldfinch to Christ in warning of his future. In Barocci's Holy Family a goldfinch is held in the hand of John the Baptist who holds it high out of reach of an interested cat. In Cima da Conegliano's Madonna and Child, a goldfinch flutters in the hand of the Christ child. It is also an emblem of endurance, fruitfulness, and persistence. Because it symbolizes the Passion, the goldfinch is considered a "saviour" bird and may be pictured with the common fly (which represents sin and disease).

 

The goldfinch is also associated with Saint Jerome and appears in some depictions of him.
