Possibly the most photographed abandoned homestead in the state of Kansas. It has been a favorite subject of mine for well over 10 years. Made with a Pentax K30 in June of 2015.
Possibly my favourite Tewet Tarn view, with the dry stone wall meandering towards the little lake and Blencathra filling the background. For my first sunrise since lockdown and midsummer, it just had to be done.
It would be good to make the tarn more prominent within the frame, though. This was taken a focal length of 15 mm, standing beside the wall. Any advice greatly welcomed!
Possibly the busiest time of the year on the grit with over 20 birds on more than one occasion selecting their favourite particles this week

After this I might Bolt Up and stay rustily quiet about metals returning to the ground. I have posted, possibly too many, rusted subject pictures of late. I feel sure that I have over bolted and under rusted both being opposites to my intentions at the same time.
Take a moment to see what many moments make as the elements above ground slowly wear back down those that have been raised from their slumber in the Earth and set to build this world as we want it to be. We cause cities to rise and we then rase them to the ground, some to abandon and some to rework. Here a bolt temporally defies gravity and stands proud in snow, ice, rain and wind leaving us and leading us to think…
The galvanised washer tries to keep shining armour on display, even zinc will one day wear away. The towering timber will tightly embraced will teeter and topple if not replaced. We are guardians of our time and we have a little chance to give our best to those that we will never meet, to those that we can enlivening with a glad heart greet.
This picture is from Loch Leven at the end of the day when a little on camera flash created a great light tussle for my Google Pixel mobile phone camera.

The bolt pictured here is a part of the work continuing at Loch Leven by RSPB and I am certain that it is part of their ecological work.

Possibly this big guy was yakking at a couple female Siberians nearby. At the Minnesota Zoo - Apple Valley, MN.
How can I possibly explain this build? This one is so personal for me and built in a very vulnerable time in my life. You can of course interpret the build in your own way! Here is my point of view.
There is a dark side with pain and suffering and the idea was to take inspiration from Blizzards game Diablo but I ended up doing my own thing. On the other side is hope portrayed in the colours, sky and house (I love the different blue colours). In the middle is a grey minifigure that is between these worlds and that figure is me.
I have lived with constant pain for 18 years and the last couple of years have been so very hard. This winter I got hope that an operation abroad would help me. The hope was high and I got the idea for this build. I started to build and even had my operation but all hope for improvement through surgery was destroyed. It was a long journey and through it all I and the people around me had to in some way manage hope. Is hope calm and passive or is it like a dragon: a powerful force that no one can stop. Can you stop it if you are too tired to go on for yet another fight for something very important to you? I now know it can't be stopped. You continue to hope as surely as the sun rises in the morning even though it hurts so very much when something doesn’t work out.
Regarding the "Save me" lettering in the build, in my fight for a better life and during my build I started asking myself, do I wait for the healthcare to save me, for other people to save me or do I save myself? Maybe is it both? You need others but also don't forget that you are big part in saving you in every challenge you meet in life.
The grey figure in the middle is fighting the dark side, fighting the chains of pain and suffering. But hope is strong and will fight every day! I hope people who love you will fight by your side and give you every support so that you have the power to save yourself!
Possibly one of the last winter shots I will get this year now we are back in lockdown. Maybe if everyone behaves and does their bit to get rid of this bloody virus we won't have to suffer any further restrictions next winter. #stayathome
Possibly built on the site of a Roman Basilica, Holy Trinity retains much of its pre-Norman Conquest architecture especially in its tower and spectacular chancel arch which famously appears in the Bayeux Tapestry.
Possibly the last photo my Canon 6D will take, shortly after this photo the tripod was blown over and the camera fell 10 feet onto a rock.

Possibly one of the most beautiful sunsets I have seen in a long time happened this evening on the West Coast of Scotland and oh my, it certainly caught me by surprise. Going out with the camera was a last minute decision and just look at what I would have missed had I stayed at home.
I tell what I would have missed if I would have stayed home, wet feet! That's the thing when you shoot at the coast, you have to remember that it is tidal in these parts so that you don't get wet feet.
I have to credit The Stranglers (one of my all time favourite bands) with the title for this one.
Possibly home to the local Dulux paint dealer, this blue bungalow sits above the harbour near Almuéñécar on Spain's southern coast.
The town is Laurie Lee's final stop in his genre defying Spanish Civil War pilgrimage, 'As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning'.
Possibly the whitest Snowy Owl I've ever seen, not a mark on this guy. Seen in southern Alberta on Mar 10.
Possibly one of the last ones from Oly. For Leighton and Rob that were with me this must have been one of the funniest to shoot lol
Possibly pondering the prospects of a poodle repast, W2 is quite interested in the parade of people and pooches below. Thomson Marsh, Kelowna, BC.
A Bee from my garden in July. unsure of ID but possibly Andrena barbilaris, a common bee in UK & season is more or less right. Those hind legs are distinctive & colour looks right for a male
I saw this hoverfly on my wander around the reserve earlier this week.
It looks to me like it will be in the genus syrphus but that could be complete rubbish!
Help with ID would be welcome.
