One more from the Tasman Bridge series. The sun has just about set behind the shoulder of kunyani/Mt Wellington and its last rays throw long shadows over the land.
A Welcome Swallow (Hirundo neoxena) is silhouetted against the crystal clear sky.

Sylvan Lake is called the crown jewel of Custer State Park in SD. Located along the Needles Hwy, it is a lovely place to picnic, hike, and of course, take a picture or two!

Testing out Adobe LightRoom 6 - first attempts at using HDR merge all failed.... Tried using the panorama merge and hey presto works very well. So merged 4 x 24Mb files then processed in Colour EFEX Pro 4 to enhance clouds and mountains.
On top of Win Hill lies Win Hill Pike, locally known as the Pimple. Win Hill Pike has an Ordnance Survey triangulation point, or trig point. Sometimes misnamed the Old Witches Knoll.
To the right is the village of Castleton.

Looking north from Bicheno toward a distant burn-off on the southwestern flanks of Mt Elephant (748m)
McLean Bay lies in front of the camera with Seymour Point (aka Long Pt.) marking the northern end. Paddys Head over the top of the point. The tip of land at the very edge of the view is Wardlaws Point which has an infrequent left hand break known locally as Harry Flobknob's... :-)
Beautiful evening in the middle of the southern winter with smoke from other controlled burns colouring the sky.

Taken somewhere along the road that links Monforte d'Alba to Barolo (Langhe). This is the area where some of Italian finest wines are made.
Taken on the same roll as my previous post of Cathedral Rock - looking back across Clytie Bight to Yankee Rock in the centre.
Cliffs of the Tasman Peninsula being remote and silent. Storm Bay being its usual self.
Posted a picture a couple of years ago from one of the bluffs 290m above this one looking at this spot in Tasman Passage. The weather on the days 30 years apart couldn't be more different.
Nikon F3HP, Nikkor 35-70 f/3.5-4.5, probably around 125th sec at f/8 on Kodak Gold 400. ~70mm.
When dancing below the watchful guardians eye
are we truly free?
Are the multicolored ribs of a site reborn
really a symbol of rebirth?
New symbols and monuments
obscure the scars of lost generations.

These Little Wattlebirds (Anthochaera chrysoptera) fly too and fro between the grevilleas in our back garden quite a lot during the day.
They move fairly quickly between the flowering shrubs and you need to catch them just leaving their perch or just before they land at a flowering shrub.

COVID-19 (CORONA VIRUS)
TO EVERYONE OUT THERE, PLEASE TAKE CARE AND BE SAFE.
With the COVID-19 (coronavirus) now rampant here and in most countries I am spending all my time at home and fortunately have plenty of birds coming to visit due to our bird friendly and flower garden.

The Wenatchee River hastens along Washington's Hwy 2 on a dreary Fall day.
A fine example of an 18th century ice house. The thatched roof was partly a decorative touch to make the building blend in with its surroundings but it also fulfilled a practical function of keeping it cool. More than two thirds of the building is below ground. The depth of the Ice House is 24 feet (7.3 metres)which is a surprising drop. The Ice House worked rather like a thermos flask. The walls are double-skinned, and ice would have been taken from a nearby pond in winter and packed into the chamber, which was lined with straw for extra insulation. Throughout the summer the ice from the Ice House would have been used to preserve food and cool drinks as well as to create ice creams and sorbets.*

South Queensferry, Scotland
After the dismal bank holiday weather, Tuesday turned out to be rather better. The tide was on the turn but plenty of time to grab a few shots along the shoreline. It was a nice afternoon stroll along the promenade and cobbled streets of South Queensferry but not the best conditions for photography with the sun high in the sky, hence this B&W conversion via Nik software to bring out some definition and contrast.
Blue Hour Aurora Borealis over Hraunsfjörður (in the foreground) opening into Kolgafafjörður, Snaefellsnes Peninsular, Iceland.
Bjarnarhafnarfjall (575m) on the right and Klákkur (380m) on the left.
The Northern Lights started right on sunset just as we rolled off the ferry from the Westfjörðs in Stykkishólmur.
As we had a very tight time limit to get to the accommodation in Grundarfjörður and check-in, I was watching the sky with high anxiety - the show could just stop at any moment.
So when the terrain opened out and I saw the water with the Aurora above the last of the sunset glow we stopped for 15 mins to shoot and run. The outlook is kinda WNW. The red glow left centre is a car on Route 54.

Big screen image!
Three frame manual stitch panorama in PS. Neither LR or PS wanted to stitch the pano as the individual images are quite complex. I have a single frame with a meteorite/space junk flare on my IG account but it seemed just a bit too fake to drop it in here!
These Brown Honeyeaters just seem to like sitting there and sing to me.

The Leeds and Liverpool Canal opened in Burnley in 1801, with Finsley Gate Wharf (then known as Mile Wharf) becoming a key location. The wharf's buildings housed blacksmiths, boat builders, and other trades essential for canal operations and the wider industrial activities of Burnley. The canal and its wharves facilitated the transportation of raw materials (like cotton) and finished goods, contributing to Burnley's rise as a major cotton-producing center.

Member's choice theme "Musical Instrument"
"Oh this is easy!", I thought. "Just take a decent capture of your violin from an interesting angle, it's a snap", I thought. I ended up with almost 200 captures and a whopping folder size of 6,3 GB. Well.
I should know by now that whenever a theme seems to be an easy one, it isn't. Seriously, are MM themes ever easy ;-) ? So this is not my violin, but piano strings. When I opened the piano I saw those rather attractive, dusty spider silk threads hanging above the strings. I wonder what they would sound like. Maybe a very high, wispy sound...

A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone! Have a great week ahead!
Thank you for your comments and faves, they are always highly appreciated!
A lone sailboat sails into the sunset on the River Duoro near Porto, Portugal. The setting sun creates a pathway of shimmering gold. Wishing you all the best in 2017 :)

Stranded icebergs on the beach at Jökulsárlón in East Iceland.
Posted a similar, colour version of this section of the beach a week or so ago. It was quite an arm wrestle between them but this one worked just that little bit better in mono.
This image dates from September 2015 on our first trip to the magical isle. I was a lot more instinctive with framing back then but my editing skills were not so much. Arguably those skills have improved but I now I feel I'm way over-thinking compositions and technical stuff!
Never mind, all part of the process I guess! :-)

Pretty good effort from a kit lens...
Western Lowland Gorilla
I visited the Melbourne Zoo during the school holidays in April 2021 and took a few shots of the Western Lowland Gorilla. During the visit the Gorilla was having a lay down and playing with the straw so I thought i would capture a few shots. Image was captured using a Nikon D610 & Tamron 150-600mm, the image was Sharpened using Topaz Sharpen AI (because I was shooting hand held and it had a bit of motion blur) and was edited using The Nik Collection's Silver Efex Pro 2.

... You could think that the title is more than a bit overstated - and it is, since the phrase "first light" usually applies to the first real observation made by a telescope. But this is my very first try at capturing the Milky Way with my Samyang 14 mm (I bought it some 6 months ago mainly to shoot at the Milky Wya), so be kind and concede it :-)
Not that there is much to be said: I was in Costa Serina, 906 m (= 2972 ft) asl; it was a clear night but not a very dark place; the thinnest waxing crescent moon had set some hours before, and this has been my only chance.
I have learned much useful information by reading the great tutorial by Dave Morrow about Milky Way photography. In the ISO settings section of his tutorial, Dave states that "The camera picks up much more data than is actually displayed on the preview screen. This data can be brought out in post processing." All the same, I have been very much stunned by the really impressive "hidden" amount of information the sensor captured and that was available in postprocessing - a quite naive postprocessing, I must admit. I have everything to learn about this kind of photography, so I will be happy to get positive criticism and suggestions by more experienced photographers!
The Wadden Sea is one of the world's most important tidal flats. A large and unique nature reserve - a place full of life and experiences. The Wadden Sea is both the still surface water and the turbulent ocean outside the dike.

The sky was full of birds circling the entire town that day. Typically I would remove a single bird or two as distractions but I opted to leave these in since there were so many and to give a truer sense of the mood.
