We've noticed there's been a lot of King Fisher pictures uploaded recently., which is great to see
And also something of a relief
Having endured a hideous cold spell at the back end of last winter we began to wonder if these stunningly beautiful birds were about to become something of a rarity
Mortality rates at the time were reportedly high
It's true to say that some 'classic' locations have sadly been without their colourful superstars this summer., but happily the majority still have their little 'fisher birds' in residence., and often with youngsters to boost their number
Let's hope the coming winter is a little kinder
Could you imagine a world without them?!
Thanks for looking, comments and faves. Much appreciated!
Ever noticed how perfectly hosta leaves channel water down to the base of the plant?

I noticed today that I have reached the 10k followers. I was speechless :o I would like to thank you all from the bottom of my heart. This picture is a THANK YOU to each and every one of you. I started blogging 5 years ago through a friend. It was a lot of fun for me and when the friend I owe the start of blogging died unfortunately, blogging got another step for me. I took every picture for her. Today blogging is not just a hobby for me, today it is passion. The reason that calms me down from a stressful working day, the reason for conveying feelings in some pictures. That's why I'm so proud that so many like my work. I appreciate all of you so much! ♥♥♥♥
thank you SO SO SOO much :*
The colors peaked on my absolute favorite trail last weekend. Needless to say I went back twice that weekend.

Ipomoea pandurata, known as man of the earth,[1] wild potato vine, manroot, wild sweet potato, and wild rhubarb,[2] is a species of herbaceous perennial vine native to North America. It is a twining plant of woodland verges and rough places with heart-shaped leaves and funnel-shaped white flowers with a pinkish throat. The large tuberous roots can be roasted and eaten, or can be used to make a poultice or infusion. When uncooked, the roots have purgative properties.[3]
Passing by our house, notice all four feet are off the ground.
Thank you all for your visits comments and faves much appreciated, have a nice weekend.
I noticed this pair so nicely perched on that branch and could not resist taking the shot, They were a bit far but it worked out rather well I think.
Poole wetland area, St.Albert, AB
An old barn door serves as a frame for a horse that stuck its head out to see what was going on as I stopped to shoot this photo. He soon lost interest in me. Many people spend their whole lives seeking to be noticed only to discover that wasn't what they were really looking for.
I noticed the way the lights on the tree (!?) were reflecting through the beer in the glass and I had to do something about it.
I'm not really happy with the focus, but considering the slow-ish shutter speed and me holding the glass in one hand with the camera in the other, I think it turned out quite well!

You may have noticed I quite like a reflection shot and I certainly couldn't pass up the chance of this shot at Zaandam station utilising the handy, and very shiny, ledge in the waiting room as a VIRM double deck unit 8681 rolls in with our connection to Sloterdijk. Jamie looks like he's in some kind of faceoff with himself...
I noticed that all the Rainbow Lorikeets were in my neighbour's garden yesterday afternoon (well I first heard them as the noise is deafening). They were fighting over a loaf that he had put out for them and I love going over and trying for the elusive "in flight" photos. I saw this one take off from a tree and snapped off three quick shots not knowing if it was in the frame or not and lucky for me it was. I just had to lighten a tad with curves in Photoshop.
I noticed this little jewel when I was walking on a deer trail and scouting for pictures. It was glowing and hard to miss. I bent way down crouched on my knees and hoped it would come out. Not as steady as I use to be. (Thank God for 'live view') The light was perfect!

Traditional process of making wool string as noticed in a small village on trek to Annapurna Base camp in Nepal Himalayas.
I’d noticed the striking white building with its handsome blue roof as we’d passed this way a day earlier, mustering our spirits as best we could under a grey, leaky sky that gave no hint of the beautiful evening we’d later enjoy by the side of the lake at Kirkjufell. I’d also spotted the rough pull in where the road snaked gently upwards through a patch of rocky scrub. “That might make for a shot,” was only the vaguest of thoughts as we passed through this remote area, heading for Arnarstapi and Dritvik Beach beyond. At this stage, the only thing we were certain of was that we’d passed the road that led to the Black Church of Budir and not taken it. And as we were following a circuit on the lonely road of West Snaefellsnes, we knew we’d need to be back this way the following day. That black church screams for attention you see. One of the most impossible to ignore hotspots on a peninsula that offers all sorts of possibilities.
So now we were here again, this time travelling anticlockwise on the most fantastic of coastal roads. Coming from a densely populated country where the sound of the internal combustion engine dominates almost every waking moment, driving here is an unrelenting joy. The Útnesvegur takes you through a brutal and dramatic landscape, where the story of Iceland’s violent volcanic birth is forever on show. In the far western reaches, we drove for miles, flanked by moss filled lava fields, roughly hewn and worn by the rages of a thousand winter storms, barely seeing any other vehicles at all. At times only the bulk of the ice clad Snaefellsjokull, rising mightily above everything else here seemed to anchor us to the land as if by some gravitational pull. A harsh elemental landscape in a time and place that has crept in under my skin and stayed there to settle into a contented glow that burns slowly within, forever calling me back. Having more time to explore on this, our second Icelandic adventure, was enabling us to see gems we’d had no time for on that dash around the ring road three summers earlier. You could easily fill an entire visit to Iceland with Snaefellsnes alone.
By now I was in a particularly fine mood. We’d already bagged compositions at half a dozen spots on this amazingly productive day as we made our way around the circuit. To add to the internal satisfaction levels, I’d also visited the fish and chip van at Arnarstapi. Let’s face it, if your stomach’s rumbling it’s game over on the photography front. Hunger is a big distraction when you’re trying to take epic photos. And now, a few minutes later after a spell in gastronomy heaven, here we were, pulled in at that patch of scrub and gazing at another epic vista, filled with more of those moss covered lava flows. And a handsome blue roofed building. And some other interesting stuff, I hope you’ll agree.
It was another Super Saturday moment, grabbed in a five minute roadside stop in the grand space between Arnarstapi and Budir. Well maybe a ten minute stop for a second layer to complete the twelve exposures for this handheld panoramic view that filled the space, tailing off into a hinterland of mountains rising from the red sands of the Snaefellsnes south coast under a huge gathering of heavy clouds that promised so much, and later delivered even more. It seems that wherever you stop - when you can stop - the chances are there will be something to fill the viewfinder with. Something that you perhaps didn’t see in a million other images when you planned your own adventures. Just like so many others, I love visiting the hotspots and trying to grab those memorable moments and record them forever. That’s what we were doing for most of our two weeks here, but I also find satisfaction in those impromptu moments when I see something else. And this is definitely an image I’d urge you to look at on the big screen if you can. “Best viewed large,” I sometimes read as I enjoy your stories. And you’re always right of course.

Pictures in the city
Lights on Sunrise, streetlight on
As you've probably noticed by now, I'm a big fan of sunrises.
I often leave very early to photograph these. In the summer it can happen that I don't even go to bed one night because I'm already on my way at half past one in the morning.
My plan is always to reach my destination an hour before sunrise so that I can experience this magical atmosphere before the day begins.
And in rare cases I manage to get a shot like the one you see here. When the full moon hovers over the mist-covered Elbe valley.
In terms of composition, the photo is certainly not a masterpiece. After all, you can't choose where the moon sets, but when I look at the photo, I remember that moment up there on mount Rauenstein in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains and my joy at having captured this scene (It was my first photo that morning and I was already satisfied).
And this memory makes the photo something special for me and I hope I was able to pass a little bit of it on to you.
Wie Ihr inzwischen sicher schon bemerkt habt, bin ich ein großer Fan von Sonnenaufgängen.
Um diese zu fotografieren bin ich häufig sehr früh unterwegs. Im Sommer kann das schonmal passieren, dass ich eine Nacht garnicht erst ins Bett gehe, weil ich mich morgens halb zwei schon auf den Weg mache.
Mein Plan ist immer, eine Stunde vor Sonnenaufgang an meinem Ziel zu sein, damit ich diese magische Stimmung vor Tagesbeginn noch miterleben kann.
Und in seltenen Fällen gelingt mir dann auch so eine Aufnahme wie die, die Ihr hier seht. Wenn der Vollmond über dem nebelbedeckten Elbtal schwebt.
Hinsichtlich der Komposition ist das Foto sicher kein Meisterwerk. Schließlich kann man sich ja nicht aussuchen, wo der Mond unter geht, Doch wenn ich das Foto betrachte, erinnere ich mich wieder an diesen Moment dort oben auf dem Rauenstein im Elbsandsteingebirge und an meine Freude diese Szene eingefangen zu haben (Es war mein erstes Foto an diesem Morgen und ich war schon zufrieden).
Und diese Erinnerung macht das Foto zu etwas Besonderem für mich und ich hoffe, ich konnte ein bisschen was davon an Euch weiter geben.

Mille mercis à mon adorable ami Guyscoop qui a gentiment et magnifiquement post-traité ma petite photo. On forme une association fructueuse, Guy, tu ne trouves pas ? ;-))
J’essaie de répondre à tous les commentaires que j’ai reçus depuis deux mois et de visiter les streams de mes amis. Ca va prendre « un peu » (lol) de temps et j’espère que vous comprendrez :-)
Thousands of thanks to my sweet friend Guyscoop who kindly and greatly processed my little shot. We have a very fruitful partnership Guy, don’t you think so ;-))
I’m now trying to answer all the comments I received since two months, and to visit my friends streams. It will take a “little” (lol) time and I hope you’ll understand :-)
I noticed this beautiful ivy clad barn on a walk along the lanes near our holiday cottage in Hereford. I think the plant hugging the gate is honeysuckle but I might be wrong HGGT!
A quick update: Martin is making good progress & was well enough to have chemotherapy today. My heartfelt thanks to all my wonderful friends for your messages of support, prayers & good wishes.
Photo 44/100 : my 100x photos this year will be of foliage, so woodland scenes, individual trees, wild/garden plants & fallen leaves 🍁🌿🍀🌳
The figures are largely the same but the faces are all slightly different. Took me a while to notice that
Recently I've started doing line-doodling in an art pad....something I used to do all the time growing up....So this is a piece with my line-doodles incorporated in....
