Crashed a hard disk and 4-5 months of photos in spite of back-up.
Got this photo last night with my phone.

- Rebelde y pertinaz entendimiento,
sed preso. - ¿Quién lo manda? - Dios glorioso.
- ¿Por qué? - Porque con ánimo dudoso
negaste la obediencia al Sacramento.
- ¿Quién ha de ejecutar el prendimiento?
- La voluntad y afecto piadoso.
- ¿Quién es el carcelero riguroso?
- La fe, que enseña el conocimiento.

Yes, there's a leopard in that acacia tree. It's pretty easy to sport, actually. Photo made with an iPhone 15 Pro Max well after sunset in Kenya's northern Mara. ©2025 John M. Hudson | jmhudson1.com
It was hard to find something to scale her against, but this was a very large -- and fortunately friendly and curious -- female who came up to our jeep to check us out as we explored the northern Mara's Olare-Motorogi Conservancy. I'd say she was a body length away. To get her all in, I had to resort to the iPhone at its widest angle. My bad back kept me from leaning out the window as far as I'd have liked to get the low angle she deserved, but under the harsh midday light I still had a wonderful opportunity to capture the texture of the dried and cracked mud that covered her. (We were near the Talek River, where she'd likely got her skin-protective coating.) Black-and-white was the only way to go because the iPhone image was hard to color-balance into something remotely real. ©2025 John M. Hudson | jmhudson1.com
Tower Bridge, London
"Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London, built between 1886 and 1894. The bridge crosses the River Thames close to the Tower of London and has become an iconic symbol of London. [...] Tower Bridge is one of five London bridges now owned and maintained by the Bridge House Estates, a charitable trust overseen by the City of London Corporation. It is the only one of the Trust's bridges not to connect the City of London directly to the Southwark bank, as its northern landfall is in Tower Hamlets.
The bridge consists of two bridge towers tied together at the upper level by two horizontal walkways, designed to withstand the horizontal tension forces exerted by the suspended sections of the bridge on the landward sides of the towers. The vertical components of the forces in the suspended sections and the vertical reactions of the two walkways are carried by the two robust towers. The bascule pivots and operating machinery are housed in the base of each tower. Before its restoration in the 2010s, the bridge's colour scheme dated from 1977, when it was painted red, white and blue for Queen Elizabeth II's Silver Jubilee. Its colours were subsequently restored to blue and white.
The bridge deck is freely accessible to both vehicles and pedestrians, whereas the bridge's twin towers, high-level walkways and Victorian engine rooms form part of the Tower Bridge Exhibition, for which an admission charge is made. [...]"

I know I have took and posted a similar picture before but this was taken with my new Hi Tech 10mm 10 stop filter with a lee 0.6 ND grad so wanted to show everyone.
The sky was quite white at this point but the nd grad bought back some detail.
i did colour correct this but decided it actually looked nice with a cooler colour so changed it back slightly.
This is a 130 second exposure thanks to my new Hi Tech filter.
Back to work tomorrow so won't be on as much for a couple of days but will be getting out with my new stuff soon for some picture taking.
My camera was on my tripod and fired via cable release using bulb mode and timed with my watch.
Getting my photo mojo back so I've got lots of ideas springing back into my mind again.
