This is Atticus who allowed me to follow him around in a very successful hunt for Meadow Voles on Saturday afternoon. It started to rain during the shoot, so he was a bit wet in this pic taken near the end. He will be back to show some of his varied activities during our short but action-packed time together.
Sorry that I can't visit your stream so often now coz I'm busy
can't even open my flickr properly coz my internet connection is so bad...
Hope everything will be better in the next few weeks
Have a nice weekend...i love you all...
"Red is such an interesting color to correlate with emotion, because it’s on both ends of the spectrum. On one end you have happiness, falling in love, infatuation with someone, passion, all that. On the other end, you’ve got obsession, jealousy, danger, fear, anger and frustration."
Quote - Taylor Swift
For the Macro Mondays theme "Redux 2020" and my choice is 'One Color'.
You are looking at a fragment of a red plastic cup ;-))

Red Squirrel - Sciurus Vulgaris
Highlands, Scotland.
The red squirrel is found in both coniferous forest and temperate broadleaf woodlands. The squirrel makes a drey (nest) out of twigs in a branch-fork, forming a domed structure about 25 to 30 cm in diameter. This is lined with moss, leaves, grass and bark. Tree hollows and woodpecker holes are also used. The red squirrel is a solitary animal and is shy and reluctant to share food with others. However, outside the breeding season and particularly in winter, several red squirrels may share a drey to keep warm. Social organization is based on dominance hierarchies within and between sexes; although males are not necessarily dominant to females, the dominant animals tend to be larger and older than subordinate animals, and dominant males tend to have larger home ranges than subordinate males or females.
Red squirrels that survive their first winter have a life expectancy of 3 years. Individuals may reach 7 years of age, and 10 in captivity. Survival is positively related to availability of autumn–winter tree seeds; on average, 75–85% of juveniles die during their first winter, and mortality is approximately 50% for winters following the first.
Although not thought to be under any threat worldwide, the red squirrel has nevertheless drastically reduced in number in the United Kingdom; especially after the grey squirrels were introduced from North America in the 1870s. Fewer than 140,000 individuals are thought to be left in 2013; approximately 85% of which are in Scotland, with the Isle of Wight being the largest haven in England. A local charity, the Wight Squirrel Project,[26] supports red squirrel conservation on the island, and islanders are actively recommended to report any invasive greys. The population decrease in Britain is often ascribed to the introduction of the eastern grey squirrel from North America, but the loss and fragmentation of its native woodland habitat has also played a role.
In January 1998, eradication of the non-native North American grey squirrel began on the North Wales island of Anglesey. This facilitated the natural recovery of the small remnant red squirrel population. It was followed by the successful reintroduction of the red squirrel into the pine stands of Newborough Forest. Subsequent reintroductions into broadleaved woodland followed and today the island has the single largest red squirrel population in Wales. Brownsea Island in Poole Harbour is also populated exclusively by red rather than grey squirrels (approximately 200 individuals).
These leaves were just so pretty there ... captured at the Botanical Gardens there along the coast of Maine.

This is my 16th photo been Explored

I just came across this wee picture I took of red berries a few months ago and I thought this would be the perfect time to upload it to flicker as it is sort of Christmassy though should have uploaded it last week...lol. I hope it is sharp enough for flickr. I'm at that stage now were I need to go over older pictures as I haven't been out recently taking any new ones...lol. Christmas took up all my time and then I go and get a bad cold which ruined everything. Anyway hope somebody at least likes this one....Thank you
I had reason to be in my archives late yesterday so decided to post these three images from days gone by.
Donostia 2015. I saw the vessel with the red spinnaker coming from afar (you got it Cordula ) and waited for about 10' til it reached a visually attractive point in my framing without sacrificing the nothern cliffs of Santa Clara island. I was iffy about whether or not entirely letting out at the top of frame the narrow Urgull's shoreline, but I also wanted to include the surf, which helps to suggest an eye path across the picture.

My third annual attempt to capture a fuchsia.
This is getting closer to where I wanted to be with this subject. It's still not exactly what I wanted, but maybe I'll get another chance this year :). The colors of this flower are so vivid and the curves of the shape are so delicate that it's worth the extra effort.
As with many of my flower macros, this was shot on a light table and was illuminated from behind.
This photo is a depth stack of 6 separate images, each of which focuses at a slightly different distance. I was shooting at f/32 to get maximum depth of field, but even then, when the nearest element was in focus, the farthest was out of focus and vice versa. The solution is to shoot multiple images at different focal lengths and then composite them in a Photoshop depth stack.
