Keeping close..... by Sue-Elleanor

165 56

A Robin taken almost this time last year..Even though occasionally digging for worms they are still happy to receive seeds from my pocket and keep close by on a walk - especially in the cold weather. This is actually taken just on the side of a pathway which is what oof grey area is and the Robin kept me company much of the time I walked this pathway.

I am desperately sorry to see all the beautiful birds having to be culled due to Avian flu and the scenes of Swans suffering from it are heartbreaking but I have no idea if it affects the smaller wild birds too ?

Hi there everyone, the names Robert, herb Robert... by Sue-Elleanor

“ I’m a herb by the way and can be used as an antiseptic, as well as treat stomach upset and nosebleeds. My leaves are edible and used by some to make tea. I could even be used crushed and rubbed on the skin as an insect repellent”

I wish Robert had told me that earlier as I got badly bitten and had left my insect repellent at home :(

The glowing Stitchwort...Greater Stitchwort that is... by Sue-Elleanor

178 61

I was determined to wring something painterly from my Helios 44-2 58 amd mounted it on my Nikon D850 using a Nikon PK 11A teleconverter with the thin type m42 adapter. I used a wide open aperture for this shot but did stop down as far as f/5.6 for some shots. I honestly thought I had some wonderful painterly bokeh when checking the LCD.. sadly I didn't notice that the tiny flowerhead of the Stitchwort in all my shots had a sort of glow around them..I have noticed the same thing from other lenses but hadn't used the Helios in years and never on the Nikon. The only way to stop this looking a bit err, a lot spectral imho, was to use the paintbrush in photoshop and carefully paint away the offending glow from just around the white petals and burn the detail back into the petals. The annoying thing was the histogram looked perfect with no blown highlights. The spectral glow simply a feature of that lens...

I started to catch up with everyone yesterday btw but as I cook dinner as my family come on a Wednesday as well as fetching Leo from school and collecting his guitar from his home on the way etc etc, I am still behind as time was short so my apologies....Sue :)
