... of colour! In our garden Spring is definitely springing. A profusion of colour all around ...
Apologies for absence of late - Flickr hit me with changing the mobile site - as I use that most of the time I was not best pleased with a new layout and navigation ... Soo still faffing around trying to get to grips with it - I am back on the Mac for ease of use at the moment ...
Will try and catch you all soon xx
I had predicted this little fellow for March the first but he did not show until today. Sorry, was off a bit. Always the first yellow rump to show up at Buttertubs Marsh every year for the past five years or so.
Predicting mid-90s today. Summertime!!!

Another shot from the majestic Derwentwater at this great little remote location looking out over the mountains at the exact moment of sunset.
This was the last image of a very productive day, I'd meant to be getting up here for sunrise this morning but that had to be binned after the previous evening my football team (Wigan Athletic) unexpectedly knocked one of the best football teams in Europe (Man City) out of the FA Cup so more than a few beverages were consumed after the match! so getting up at 4am was pretty much off the agenda...
Anyway, the weather forceast had predicted a dull cloudy day so I wasn't expecting much up here, thankfully the weaher forecast was totally wrong with great light during the day and a superb sunset which is often the case, now I'm not a meteorologist in anyway shape or form but I'm pretty sure if I ever fancied a career change I could just make up some random weather forecast the day before on telly and there's half a chance it might be right!
For a change though the weather had been kind to me, and standing around in the water for an hour or so here I was rewarded with a nice show come sundown for once, the day after I bumped into another photographer at Buttermere and he said he had shot sunrise on this morning, and he said it was pretty poor so it turns out that staying in bed was the right choice on this occasion, as you always feel like you've missed something good if you don't make the effort to get up.....
This movie has equal billing with Walker Bros for Walkers "unkown until now" major screen role as JC (thats Joan Crawford and not Jesus Christ!) in his remake entitled "Mildred Pierced" about a woman who eventually owns a chain of tattoo and piercing centres.

The colours here in southern Ontario/Cornwall due to the forest fires made the sun filtered yellow and red especially during sunset. Here sun dropping down below the trees as Yellow Sun, Blue Clouds.
Glad now the wildfires significantly reduced in our province Ontario.
Enjoy, and have a great week that is predicted to rain every day starting tomorrow in our region !!!
wandering through the quiet streets of alcudia, i spotted a man standing by his door. intrigued by the rustic entrance, i asked if i could photograph it. little did i know, this simple request would lead to a spontaneous portrait session inside his home. he revealed himself to be a painter and writer, living without the convenience of the internet or a mobile phone. the conversation flowed, and as he posed with the chessboard, i promised him a print of this portrait. in return, he said he would paint me. sometimes, photography opens doors to more than just images â it connects people in ways you can't predict.

A few days ago, I was hoping for snow. Now we got more than we were hoping for. Am guessing that we have about 1m ( ca. 40 inches) or more. The breaks between the snow showers/.storms are short and yours truly was stir crazy. So I had to head out there and try to get some captures before another blizzard hit again. Not many people out there as you can imagine. Hard to find a path to walk. This is one of them. And guess what? They predicted more snow.
You all have a great week ahead. Thank you for stopping by, having a look and possibly commenting, faving or inviting. Very much appreciated.
As predicted by some of my fotter mates i was at Chaloners whin/Askham bar for 60044 "Dowlow" passing with 1Z24 the 11.38 York to Drax P.S. `Martin House` charter,
Recently repainted and newly named 66190 "Martin House Children`s Hospice" was rear gunner 02/06/2023.
So...Fog was predicted at Epping. So I made the two hour drive to get there and when I arrived there was none.
Not the end of the world, Ive learnt to take the weather forecast with a pinch of salt.
Still....had a nice morning there, and its a really lovely place to shoot. Mist or no mist.

Isolde speaking to Tristans spirit through art. The peacock feathers in her dark bouquet predict she will die of sorrow soon.
Spiritists around the 'fin the siècle' would use photography to try to capture the spirits they invoked during seances. Not always succesfully and manipulated pictures with fake ghosts were often used to prove that talking to spirits was real.

The predicted high cloud turned up and coloured up up just nicely at Sunrise.
This is the view from a lookout in Waverton which is a suburb of Sydney Australia
Taken on a wonderful sunny morning when for once, the weather turned out to be nicer than predicted.

I think this is the most detailed flight shot of a SB that I have managed to date. Using the 3 step principle I apply to much of my flying bird photography - get your settings right - then take an awful lot of shots - hope that one of them is in focus.
I do love shooting with the super light Nikon 400 / 4.5 - with a 2x teleconverter in good light the F9 aperture gives a nice DOF for this sort of subject. Plus I could commando crawl across the shingle holding it to get closer to the birds.
Nobody can predict the future. You just have to give your all to the relationship you're in and do your best to take care of your partner, communicate and give them every last drop of love you have. I think one of the most important things in a relationship is caring for your significant other through good times and bad.

With some moderate aurora activity about & clear skies predicted for the north Yorkshire coast I popped down to the tiny coastal village of Kettleness ...
I'm terrible at predicting which pictures will get lots of favorites, but suspect this one will be popular.
Hell, for me, would be Yosemite Valley. What picture could you possibly take that hasn't been taken already? I'll give Ansel Adams credit - he lived there year-found (he was managing the gift shop, IIRC) so for him, it really was a case of "photographing what you know."
Yes, I took pictures of the fireworks, and they came out OK. Maybe I'll post one, but I promise you it will look the same as all the others, except less polished, technically.

Creative intro: life path is not a math, you can’t predict it (you can become a doctor or drug addict). You can’t calculate your fate, (one wrong step and it would became difficult to fix broken seem) sometimes it is too late to fulfill our dreams. Tonight I feel Lucifer’s grope around my neck, there is no turning back from my chosen railroad track.
Creative thoughts: railroad is a symbol of our life our path, it is like a destiny, we don't know why we choose left railroad track and why we choose to become a gambler or a prostitute, why we choose railroad right track and why someone become a thief or why we choose middle track and we become poet writer or painter etc. The problem is life is short as one adventure trip, many of us don't have time and chance to go back at right track, I mean right way. I spend 1 month making photos on a railroad searching for the answer, which track to choose, what move to do in my “headless” life but still I didn't find the answer. I know one thing that some poor souls never get chance to choose life path I mean about little babies that died in birth process (* I worked in hospital shortly and once I got order to bring few months dead baby in a morgue). A lot of people live poor today, some rich families live like a modern kings & queens but there is some kind of justice because nothing is forever, you can't bring your fortune or pain & disease in heaven and hell.
P.s. I recommend you songs: W.A.S.P. – Headless Children, Russ Ballard - In The Night.
19th February 2017:
As predicted the weather has turned, it started off nice enough earlier this morning and then clouded over. It also feels damp out and the light's gone completely, very grey.
So I had to find an inside photo, but Graham gave me the idea yesterday when he said he hadn't noticed the little plastic flower on my cardigan before. Just about managed to get a photo before Izzy tried to bomb another photo!
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
Calsky predicted first contact would be 11:12 25.6seconds however I spotted it at 11:11 40s. This image was at 11:12 07 and is clearly visible, I think this is because of this prominence.

NOAA predicted kp 7 last night. Perhaps it was that high somewhere, but not over Iceland. 7 pic panorama, shadows lifted but otherwise no correction. 8 sec exposure = too long. 7 pic pano
Addendum: apparently the kp index is not predicting the "intensity" of the lights.
The forecast hadn’t predicted it, but there were other factors which gave me hope, such as recent rain and a drop in temperature and as I climbed to the top of the hill and emerged from the trees just before sunrise, I was very happy to see great big balls of the fluffy stuff aka mist. Big thanks to the elves in their mist factory who worked overtime that morning.
I shoot with an Olympus and I love the LIVE BULB/LIVE TIME feature on these cameras which really helped when photographing this shot of the moving mist.
What it does for you, is give a regular update on the exposure as it is progressing, while the shutter is open. So the photographer is able to see the image & histogram ‘develop’ in-camera and stop the exposure once the shutter has been open for enough time.
You cannot predict the outcome of an aurora borealis image. All you can do is set up your camera on a tripod and hope for the best. The lights can appear from anywhere and their beauty might make you forget that you were there to capture them. So be careful ... :)
Hope you like it, enjoy!

The sunset was spectacular on 7 November.
As predicted by @SunsetWX, great job folks.
I was set up with the D850, and the 14mm f/2.8 Samyang with the two ND large Cokin filters. Set up the tripod and gimbal, and was able to get a few panorama’s.
The light is exquisite, and the clouds are truly Cotton candy pink for a few brief moments just before/after sunrise/sunset.
With mild temperatures predicted and minimal wind, I decided to make a quick trip to Lake Monger this morning. There were not a lot of birds but some patience was rewarded with this photo of Pink Eared Ducks perched on a small sand bar a comfortable distance from the edge. Accompanying this pair were another two pairs that were more interested in sleeping than anything else.
The predicted cold front has come with a vengeance today so am missing the fynbos Monday hike. The grass in the foothills of the Drakensberg turns a beautiful reddish brown in Winter. I was attracted by the ordered chaos in this image.
Despite forecast predicted hazy weather, it remained clear till about 3:40am which gave me a chance to shoot LRGB videos. Seeing okey(ish) but jet stream was around 30m/s.
Getting there with derotating, but gosh it is a long process :)
Moons that I was rather struggling with, not very pleased with them for now but hope I'll get those sorted as well.

. . . After predicting a terrible ice storm, I was glad that we only had a little ice this morning! The roads were fairly good, and the only really dangerous spots were the sidewalks. The Redbud tree took on a nice looking white color!
Have a great week Facebook, Flickr, and 500px friends!
The Photographer's Ephemeris was predicting an epic sunrise this morning, so I set the alarms and got up super early only to discover mostly clear skies.
Resigned to shoot something since I was already awake, I noticed the (almost) full moon descending in the west... I had about an hour before it would set below the horizon.
Fortunately, the Scripps Pier is very close to my home, and I made the quick trip down to the beach for this shot.
The moon is easily mistaken for the sun in these types of photos, because the color temperature of the light is identical to our sun. If you think about it, this makes sense because the moonlight really IS sunlight... just reflected off the surface of the moon.
It was really fun to be the only person out on the beach, it was such a quiet and peaceful morning.

The weather forecast predicted 98% high-level and 0% low-level clouds for sunrise this morning... which was not quite accurate.
We did get some colour in the sky... but not much... and not for long... and not where I needed it.
But hey... this photo is not about Table Mountain or the sky... this photo is all about the foreground!
This is another panorama captured with my multi-camera panoramic-rig.
Parallax errors... hah hah... what's that? This image stitched perfectly! :)
Panorama, 6 x Nikon D3200s, 6 x Nikkor 35 mm prime lenses, ISO of 100, aperture of f/11 with a 1/2 second exposure.
From the 'Photography can mirror what is happening in Life' file.
Though we have no crystal ball to predict the future, and day to day lives have been drastically changed in over a year of social distancing and lock downs, can we still find beauty when things seem blurred?
I am grateful and appreciative of walking outdoors, close to home during lockdowns, and enjoying nature's beauty. It is fun to wander slowly and breathe in the fresh air. This summery, warm morning, with a gentle breeze blowing was refreshing. A stand of large horse chestnut trees were forming a canopy above, their white flowers blooming. Some of the blossoms are falling, dotting the path ahead. There is sunshine, blossoms and more paths to follow. Looks like a fine day to explore.
And to have fun playing with Intentional Camera Movement.
For "smile on saturday" theme of "nothing in focus"
Have a nice day! Keep smiling! :-)
The weather forecast predicted rain, but we got out anyways and got rewarded with very sunny weather and a great time in the park of castle Schleißheim.
They predicted showers early today but I went out anyway. The skies were pretty interesting though, and it was raining here when I shot this. I happened to catch a lightning strike in the distance too. I shot this with a 1 second exposure and it was about a minute before sunrise. My feet got soaked cause the tide was coming in and pretty rough.

This is my Weather Ball. It predicts the weather. I put it in front of the frosty but sunny window upstairs as the sun was rising :)

All week the weather forecast had predicted a glorious sun from 6am onwards, then it hinted at clear skies, followed by clouds and then back to clear. We stuck to our game plan and Eddie duly arrived on my doorstep at 3:45am as planned. We quickly swapped cars and headed off... the sat nav pre-programmed the night before (up here for thinking , down there for dancing... you know what I'm like). Not much traffic on the roads at this time of a morning apart from heavy goods keeping the shoppers happy.
We passed over a bridge we didn't know and drove past a ship we couldn't see. Still we were on course and arrived at the beach car park just as the sat nav had predicted - I usually make at least one wrong turn on our travels so this was a first. However, the car park appeared to be locked but it pays to check and on closer inspection they were just badly aligned and leaning so with a bit of heaving and pushing we managed to prize them apart and squeeze the car through. A quick change of shoes for wellies and we were on our way to the beach.
Now those that have visited before will know you have to cross over the dunes before you see the lighthouse and on first sight the vista was not as one would have hoped. Although we were an hour ahead of sunrise, a band of light sat between the horizon and one solid bank of motionless cloud mocking us as it deliberately bisected our intending shots. My first hour of shooting produced nothing worthy of processing and posting. Only with the imminent arrival of the sun from behind the Wirral peninsula did the cloud give in and start to disperse.
What had started as a potentially disappointing trip out was beginning to show signs of hope and excitement. We both quickly moved location, set-up again and clicked away. This is my second frame as the cloud began to break with the rising sun, still not visible on the horizon, under lighting and warming the sky. I began to dream of our changing fortune and hoped...
well, I haven't posted anything for a long long time . . .
So for anyone out there who is still following me I wish you the very best for this New year!
I am back at work and have a late start today, doing a few chores but in the process saw this gorgeous little fella poking his head up above the recently cut lawn!
Today is predicted to be a real scorcher here so he won't last long, but in this short moment when the sun is just catching the dew drops , I took the time to document the now.
used my old hand held 28-105 reversed lens technique.
The predicted storms arrived, and passed. A breath of fresh air before the next set of waves and wind. I will always love fall and winter, fortunately my Fuji gear is always up for the task :-).
Our local weather predictor "Edmontonchuck" was quoted today in response to the CBC cast which can be read below.
"I don't care what those posers said. Edmonton will have six more months of winter. Suck it up! Too bad about Willow. She was a righteous Rodent."
From CBC
"Two of Canada's famed four-legged forecasters have made clashing weather predictions. Nova Scotia's Shubenacadie Sam is calling for an early spring while Ontario's Wiarton Willie expects six more weeks of winter.
According to tradition, if the groundhog doesn't see its shadow when it emerges from its burrow on Groundhog Day, an early spring is in store.
It was two against one on Tuesday, as Pennsylvania's Punxsutawney Phil, arguably the best-known weather predicting woodchuck, also predicted an early end to winter.
This year's Groundhog Day festivities have already been marred by the death of Canada's westerly prognosticator, Winnipeg Willow. (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation February 02, 2016)
Groundhog Day celebrations have been cancelled in Manitoba out of respect for Willow, who died last Friday at the Prairie Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre." (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation February 02, 2016)

Predicting the color of a sand dune is pretty much like predicting what you’re going pick out of a box of mixed chocolates. There’s a range of possibilities and some definite patterns, but you will get surprises.
If you have an obsessively fixed idea of the color of sand, such variable outcomes could drive you to sticking with black and white conversions.
