The nest is approx. 10-12" high!
This is a B&W version of the previously posted photo of mesmerizing reflection patterns on the river. The B&W presentation emphasizes the shape forms in the patterning.
A walk in Manesty Woods in the Lake District saw the beginning of the fall of autumnal leaves. This arrangement had fallen on a bed of lichen.
Bark has always been something that I like taking photos of. Today I took a little walk and found this piece of art on a tree. So this is my contribution to this weeks Macro Mondays.

Macro Mondays theme : "Patterns in Nature"
Flowers exhibit some of the nicest patterns found in nature. The Zinnia featured in my photo is one good example. The petals follow a specific pattern for this variety of flowers. And the palette of colors is simply gorgeous. Of course, the flower I chose falls within the 3” guideline.
Thank you everyone for your visits, faves, and kind comments
One of the sure signs of springtime is when the Camellia Japonicas burst into bloom, bringing forth starbursts of magnificent red, vibrant magenta, soft pink, flaming vermilion and pure white.
This year the FFF+ Group have decided to have a weekly challenge called “Snap Happy”. A different theme chosen by a member of the group each week, and the image is to be posted on the Monday of the week.
This week the theme, “patterns in nature” was chosen by Cheryl, Cheryl - Vickypoint.
These four Camellia Japonica blooms I photographed in the Fitzroy Gardens one bright Friday after work in September last year.
Camellia japonica, known as common camellia, Japanese camellia, or Tsubaki in Japanese, is one of the best known species of the genus Camellia. Sometimes called the rose of winter, it belongs to the family Theaceae. It is the official state flower of Alabama.
Just on the edge of the Melbourne Central Business District\'s formal grid of streets, you will find the beautiful Fitzroy Gardens. A haven of green with avenues of elms, lush rolling lawns and beautiful seasonal plantings the gardens are populated with various buildings and points of interest.
In spring, the central avenues lined with elms have beds of daffodils and jonquils spring up from beneath them. Their beautiful golden yellow and crisp white colours are always a welcome sight when they burst forth for they herald the arrival of spring in Melbourne.
The Fitzroy Gardens was named after Sir Charles Augustus Fitzroy (1796-1858), Governor of New South Wales (1846-1851) and Governor-General of the Australian Colonies (1851-1855). The Gardens have a long history of over 150 years, few other capital cities can boast such a significant garden so close to the City\'s centre. As crown land the City of Melbourne are the custodians to preserve and oversee this magnificent garden, visited by over 2 million local, interstate and international visitors each year, it is one of the major attractions in Melbourne. It features many beautiful statues, a bandstand, the Temple of the Winds, a conservatory and Captain Cook\'s Cottage.
A venerable oak unfurls its sweeping limbs across the Rock Garden lawn at Muckross Gardens, Killarney National Park. Soft overcast light brings out the bark’s texture, moss and lichen while the stone backdrop and clipped greens keep the focus on the tree’s powerful root flare and branching architecture—a quiet portrait of living sculpture in County Kerry.

It has been a while since I posted my last ones....catching up now my friends.
This is one from my recent trip with Glen to Moreton Island where we were witnessing a great natural spectacle. Do I really need to say anything here.....just look at this landscape and soak it in. It is a large tidal pool where we enjoyed the silence and absence of civilisation.
