Crane's Castle in Ipswich, Massachusetts is a beautiful spot way up on a hill with magnificiant views and rolling greens in all directions. So what did I do, but change it into a British industrial town....or something like that. This was not intentional, but the multiple images merged into this scene and I had to follow the flow. Someday I'll be able to post a normal picture, but now is not that time. They had a wonderful art show there this weekend with paintings of the local scenery. I came away inspired but this was the result. Think theres a chance in hell they'd show this there? That's why theres Flickr.
Took Lena outside today for some pictures :) I love her so much <3
Also if anyone missed it I posted a photostory yesterday ^-^ Link is in my next picture.
J'ai des problèmes avec Flickr, et avec le téléchargement des photos:((
J'essaie à nouveau... et j'essaierai de venir vous voir ensuite :))
I have problems with Flickr, and downloading photos: ((
I try again ... and I'll try to come to you then :))

Outside the village of Tubac in Arizona is a clearing along the Santa Cruz River that was the first stop in my Arizona wildlife tour. I was rewarded almost right away with a sighting of this Dusky-capped Flycatcher. It was a life bird for me, but a fairly common one in the southwest and Latin America.
03.30 at night the light from the moon woke me up, I couldn't help but jump out of bed to capture the beauty of the moon on the Welsh nightscape.... Thanks for looking.

Well this is actually the government's official party house. Imagine all the prominent and powerful people that have drunk themselves silly there. It kind of looked like it had hangover when I walked by last Saturday morning. But as the windows all seemed unbroken and there were no broken beerbottles or vomits outside I figure last party must have been quite tame.

Took it during sunset time, change the tone little bit, to make the atmosphere more attractive. 夕陽時分的虞美人花，改變了些色調，想突出當時的氣氛。

We've had a very long spell of great weather, clear blue skies and scorching temperatures up here in Fort William. On this particular day last Tuesday thunder clouds had been building throughout the day eventually bringing some much needed rain to the area. The rain clouds cleared just in time for sunset to produce some nice colour in the sky and mist floating about the river close to my house. Took the dog out for his last walk of the day, saw the conditions were looking good so nipped back up to the house for the camera.

We drove to Signaldalen to take photos of Otertind, the weather was nice but the windy conditions made it difficult to stay outside the car, I`ve got a few shots, but my nose and my fingers was not happy....
Where did the little Fire Chief go?
Why did he let go his fire truck?
He has grown up and is now driving the real big fire truck.
Call 911 if you want to see him! :o)

Happy Monday and great week!

Friday was Gorgeous & Saturday was wonderful up until early evening..I got a "wimpy" sunset...but I guess it is not in the cards for me to have a sunset yet..:-)
Photo 2 in the Nashville Series
BEGINNINGS AND ENDINGS
Leslie and Mabel Cheek moved into the mansion in January 1933. Leslie Cheek lived at Cheekwood for just two years before his death at 61.
In 1943, Mabel Cheek deeded the house to her daughter, Huldah Cheek Sharp, and her husband, Walter Sharp. The Sharps lived at Cheekwood until the 1950s when they offered it as a site for a botanical garden and art museum.
The development of the property was spearheaded by the Exchange Club of Nashville, the Horticultural Society of Middle Tennessee and many other civic groups. The Nashville Museum of Art donated its permanent collections and proceeds from the sale of its building to the effort. The new Cheekwood opened to the public in 1960.

it's odd that day 200 doesn't feel as monumental as day 100. i guess it's just because i'm so used to this project now, it's just become a part of my routine.

Wood ducks are the most abundant resident wild ducks in Florida. Males are brightly colored, while females are a muted gray brown.
Wood ducks prefer wooded wetlands, streams or swampy areas; they feed on floating mast, fruit and seeds of water tupelo, oaks and cypress. They are unusual among ducks in that they are hole nesters. A shortage of nest cavities limits their nesting, but fortunately these ducks readily use nest boxes.
The recovery of wood duck populations is one of North America’s conservation success stories. In the early 1900s the species was almost extinct. Destruction of bottomland hardwood swamps and hunting had decimated wood duck populations across the eastern USA. The recovery began with the passage of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act in 1918, which prohibited the hunting of wood ducks nationwide. The wide-scale use of artificial nest boxes also contributed to the wood duck’s recovery and populations rebounded; hunting seasons reopened in 1941.
I found this one in my backyard Lake Wales, Florida.

I hope all my friends have a fantastic weekend!!
I'm on call tomorrow, day and night....... keeping my fingers crossed i don't get called out!!
Love Carl xx
Momma,
This is Knox, your son. Remember me? This is my sad face. My, missing you face.
I made you something this morning. I wrote you a letter and tied it to something that is suppose to help you remember me. Actually, I made Granny mail it. You should get it in a couple of days. I can't wait for you to get it in the mail. You're going to love it.
I know you look at Granny's pictures on Flickr, so I thought I would surprise you with a picture of me. Granny takes awesome blue heeler photos. I can't say much for her other pictures. I'm really tired of flowers and birds. She hurt my feelings when she posted some other dog's photos. (Please don't tell her I said that because she does feed me, okay?)
Momma, since I can't mail myself to you, I'm doing the next best thing. I'm mailing my heart.
I am waiting for you. Always will be.
I love you to the moon and back.
Your son,
Knox
Cool Mountain Waters at Roaring Fork Falls

A trip to the mountains of Western North Carolina is incomplete without a quick stop at Roaring Fork Falls in Yancey County. My strategy behind the lens is pretty simple and certainly no secret: when I'm coming in from out of town to photograph an area/region, I identify (to the best of my ability) unique areas with high potential behind the lens. I stay as close as possible (camping if allowed) and radiate away from these high-value areas following trails and/or waterbodies etc. as far as interest takes me. In the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina one of those areas of high potential and interest is Mount Mitchell, the highest peak east of the Mississippi. The Black Mountains (where Mount Mitchell is located) have a number of great sunrise potentials; following first light I almost always drop the mountain and stop by nearby Roaring Fork Falls.
I was surprised by the changes in the stream bed on this visit. After relatively similar conditions over a course of almost five years, I found the rock structures downstream of the falls to be largely changed (I can only imagine that a large log caught high water conditions at some point and cleared out some of the rocks as everything tumbled downstream).

Every time I go down to the Guilford waterfront, I resolve that I WILL NOT take yet ANOTHER shot of the Shack on Grass Island. Then something like this presents itself....

I'm pleased to report that Poppy is doing well after yet more `torture'---here she is watching a fly while taking a break from her gentle stroll at Dunlop Millennium Woodland Nature Park today.
On Thursday she had a specialist dental appointment, during which each tooth was individually x-rayed, and scaled/cleaned. Unfortunately the x-rays showed that further monitoring of one tooth root is required, and she's likely to require quite a major extraction in a few months!
Stowe House is a Grade I listed country house located in Stowe, just outside Buckingham. It is the home of Stowe School, which has leased the building since it was founded in 1923. The present house dates from around 1683, when the central part was rebuilt by Sir Richard Temple, 3rd Baronet. The architect was William Cleare, who worked for Sir Christopher Wren. There have been considerable additions over the years under various architects, including Vanbrugh and Robert Adam. The exterior of the house has not been significantly changed since 1779, and the front of the house is 279 m in length. A long, straight driveway runs from Buckingham all the way to the front of the house, passing through a 60-foot (18 m) Corinthian arch on the brow of the hill on the way. The driveway approach to the house is still in use, although it no longer runs through the arch. The Landscape Gardens are owned by the National Trust.
Although I havnt posted recently I have still been out shooting but have preoccupied with planning our trip to Chicago for my 40th birthday then a trip to the lakes on our return.
Chicago is an amazing city, in our opinion every bit as good as New York where we went last year! One of my favourite things is the El train that runs around downtown via the Loop.
While Michigan Avenue gets all of the lime light I love Wabash Avenue which is the next avenue to the West. The El runs down part of it and luckily there is a station named Adams that is the only one on the Avenue out of three that has a crossing bridge meaning you can get this shot.
One day we had been on their version of the Tube to Logan Park and Bucktown just outside downtown and after getting back we were close to an El station so we looked at which line would get us to Wabash so I could take this shot. Epic fail in that I said we needed to get off the station closer to the river so we ended up having to walk back South about 1 mile which seems like nothing but when you've walked maybe 12 miles it was a chore, not so much for me but for Claire as I dragged her everywhere by then!
So in this shot youre looking North to Trump Tower which is on the river bank.
If you get the chance to go to the States I would look at Chicago, a truly amazing city!

I opened the RAW file in DxO Optics Pro where I made some basic adjustments before importing a Tiff file to PS CS6. I used the Khromagery Action to swap red & blue channels and make some levels and hue sat adjustments.
Next I made some perspective adjustments to straighten the outer walls then used a Pro Contrast preset in Colour EFex Pro 4 to bring out some detail.
Lastly I saved the file in various sizes and formats before uploading.
Hopefully I will have many photos to upload from this trip and the lakes trip so keep an eye out :D
It is five below zero outside today and two more snowstorms are coming our way. In two days it will be March and maybe things will warm up a bit. In spite of this, there are are a lot of interesting photo opps out there---regardless of the cold. I knew about this neighbors old truck that was parked out behind their barn for years and was waiting for the right conditions to make an image. The falling wet snow made the moment.
I used my Pentax K5, Pentax 18-135mm lens, Aperture 3, and Topaz to make this image.

Thank you for viewing, good day!
The first of the shots from my holiday down to Cornwall and probably the one of the hardest shots to expose I've ever taken.
This was taken just outside Polzeath, facing towards Pentire Point. The sun was just out of frame on the left hand side and low down (I was on my way to the cliffs for sunset) and was backed by a strong onshore wind which was blowing the sea spray up the gullies of the cliffs, allowing them to be highlighted by the low sun passing through them. Exposing to get even some detail in the cliff without blowing the sky was a nightmare and this was the best I could manage.
I'm sure there's a lot more to be had out of this image but my post processing skills aren't up to the task yet!
