Have a lovely and safe Sunday
Nothing too special, i was out last week wanting to test a new filter, i didnt use it for this shot. While i was out there was a nice sky formation and i wanted to practice with reverse grads ahead of my holiday to Northumberland (just 3 months to go). Despite having the grads 6 months i havent really given them a work out. This sky was made for them- i dont know what it is about filter slides when they just pop an image you cant help but smile, one they were worth the cost and two i dont need to sit at a computer and mess around editing, so much easier this way :)
My patented wine glass shot :) A good night for the practice on which a short window this time of year for this kind of shot.

This is the photography backdrop I told you about and the model is Rontzy, one of the toys I've made. And because mouses love to eat, she's sitting near an old wooden food recipient.
Any constructive criticism is warmly welcomed. Thank you!
Having a go at flying shots , quite pleased with this one !! Am really enjoying playing with the settings on the new camera , deleting loads i am really good at that x
Another day of practicing panning shots. First time attempting this on motorcycles during a trackday at the TT circuit in Assen The Netherlands. Given the fact that motorcycles are smaller then cars you have an advantage and a disadvantage. Smaller in length makes the deviation in focus front to back smaller when not shooting perpendicular to the axis of movement. But smaller also means more focal length is needed which makes it harder. This one was shot at 500mm handheld with 1/80sec shutterspeed.
Shortly after weaning, young elephant seals progressively go into shallow inshore waters where they discover a new environment and learn how to use it. With no urgent need to find food, they quickly become curious about everything around them, including a diver.. Possession Island (cold) waters, Crozet Archipelago.
The Geese are practicing their V formation as part of their fall ritual. The sounds of them squawking away as they fly overhead in large flocks is a sure sign the season is changing. I watched these geese take off together and I was impressed at how close they were beside each other. They were able to co-ordinate the movement of their wings so they did not bump into each other.
In the glare of the spotlight, the world fell away. The movements as repetitive as the mantra blaring in her head: Practice makes perfect.....
For the past two days, I've been practicing taking pictures of the Sun to prepare myself for the upcoming Solar Eclipse.
In NY State, the Eclipse will be partial! I just hope that the weather will be favorable.
The spot on the upper right of the sun's surface is actually a sunspot!
Sunspots are temporary phenomena on the Sun's atmosphere that appear as spots darker than the surrounding areas. They are regions of reduced surface temperature caused by concentration of magnetic field flux that inhibit convection.
Sunspots usually appear in pairs of opposite magnetic polarity. Their number varies according to the approximately 11-year solar cycle.
