Another shot from the Thames Barrier in Greenwich, with sunset rapidly approaching there was a good amount of golden soft light to play with, the lower light allowing a decent long exposure time, just showing of a lone section of the river defence, these to me are a very interesting and unusual architectural design, almost space age, and set against some recognisable shapes in the City make for some unusual images when coupled with a long exposure.

Bavaria's forests are frequently damaged by game. The best protection against such damage would be adapted game populations, which would have to be regulated by hunting. Counts and checks of bite damage show that the game population is far too high. Complex protective measures are necessary to enable the forest to be rejuvenated with tree species appropriate to the location. This also includes the protection of individual trees against browsing shown here.

 

In Bayerns Wäldern kommt es häufig zu Wildschäden. Der beste Schutz gegen solche Schäden wären angepasste Wildbestände, die durch Jagd reguliert werden müssten. Zählungen und das Überprüfen der Bissschäden zeigen, dass der Wildbestand viel zu hoch ist. Um ein Verjüngen des Waldes durch standortgemäße Baumarten zu ermöglichen, sind aufwändige Schutzmaßnahmen nötig. Dazu gehört auch der hier gezeigte Verbissschutz einzelner Bäume.

ΠΡΟΣΤΑΣΙΑ.

Another shot from the Felbrigg Estate as the mist receded for awhile. There seemed to be endless compositions with these trees, protected from sheep by the wooden slats dotted about.

This is in a Provincial Park, where they can't really control active beavers like they do on private property, and so they can only control their damage with structures like this. By protecting an important drainage channel with these, beaver can't dam it, and the water can get closer to where it needs to go expeditiously...

The self-protection that seems necessary is suffocating, impairing and isolating.

I was so pleased I got to visit Godrevy last November. I arrived early afternoon so I could scout around and find a composition I could work with during sunset. I would have liked to have shot the island and lighthouse from the rocks on the beach but the tide level wouldn’t have given me the separation I was wanting so that will have to wait for another day.

 

I captured this particular scene from a rocky ledge close to the seas edge. It was very exposed with a fair amount of sea spray to deal with, but I did get a direct view onto the island and lighthouse.

 

I also had the pleasure of meeting and shooting alongside fellow Flickr friend Brian Pedlar :-)

 

Thanks for viewing, take care and stay safe everyone :-)

 

full of people .. hard to avoid them .. wish I could have taken the photos very early in the morning ... but then .. it would not look that natural

Protection against rising sea levels in the 21st century is crucial, as sea level rise accelerates due to climate change. Changes in sea level damage beaches and coastal systems are expected to rise at an increasing rate, causing coastal sediments to be disturbed by tidal energy.
