Turf Fen wind pump, Norfolk Broads

New place, new hours, new path. So just to document some environs, took the M4, old Summitar, and a roll of Ultra 100 and over a couple of days just pushed the shutter. Development though - new water (but not new chemicals) - and dreaded black spots. That's just the way it is. So new perspectives and challenges as well.

The short Easter break is gone and it's back to business as usual. It seems time passes so quickly nowadays... I remember the days when I had too much time on my hands, and wasn't getting anything done. So, I suppose it's not too bad to be busy yet productive. I hope your break was full of love and happy times!

Just would not keep still !!

If you zoom right in you can see the reflection of the blue sky, palm trees, and myself taking the lizards photo. I took this photo at the Brisbane Botanical Gardens at Mount Coot-tha.

A photo from a past fall in Jackson Hole, WY (USA).

That year I was in Jackson from late September to October 10 and what a show it was...maybe one of the most intense I've seen over the years. The majority of the trees you see here are Cottonwoods.

I was looking at the various web cams a little earlier today and I saw where a storm front was moving through the area. And my guess is that once it passes through you'll see the first early snow on the upper elevations of the Tetons.

Another thing the web cams revealed ... the trees haven't changed much. With temps dropping nicely into the 30's at night my guess is that in 2 weeks the colors will really start popping out but the weekend of Sept 23rd will probably disappoint those who are there for the fall colors....it just looks like they will be late this year. Hey, that's ok...I'll be there through Oct. 4th.

This shot was on a day when the branch from the Snake River going through Lower Schwabacher's Landing was perfectly still.

The pdf version to my upcoming ebook "Jackson Hole, WY - A Photographer's Shooting Guide" is now completed. See my profile for more info on obtaining a copy.

Hope to see you there between Sept 28 and Oct 4..

Pink Floyd - High Hopes

Friends and enemies, the point has come

Now no more mincing words

What the fuck is going on?

Don't we realize it or are we just hiding it?

We are mad, our madness is great

It's in our flesh, how do we get rid of it?

Maybe it's just my own view

Maybe I'm wrong and don't understand it all

But there are shows on TV that explain it's all about looks

While at school kids go on a killing spree

It drives me crazy

I can't watch this shit no more

More light, I can't see

I'm half blind and I can barely stand

It's so loud, I can't hear a thing

Everybody's talking through each other so they don't get lost

My childhood was beautiful, I played and laughed.

But when I was 8, I thought for the first time:

When I stand before God one day

I'll break his nose bone and ask him how it can be

That all his children here are deaf, dumb and blind

Tearing themselves apart in fear, their souls out of tune

You FREAK, what did you create?

You structure us humans as if we were your weapons

Built to destroy ourselves and everything else

We beg you for mercy, but you won't hear it

We scream because we feel that we are fearful and bad

Thunder, the balance of nature, are like the plague

YEAH! HOW CAN IT BE?

Someday I'll enter your heavenly kingdom

I'll grab you and drag you down to us!

Live this shit yourself, drown in it!

But today I am no longer 8 and I see life differently

God is ourselves, consciousness that wanders

From form to form, to grow and become

And the fear of every form is the so-called dying

But dying is becoming and suffering is learning

And the shards we inherit are ourselves, from far away

To give us what we have given

In words and thoughts and feelings and deeds

And become we will, until the world implodes

And all that is is born again from the beginning

For in us rests the infinite now

It penetrates and gives birth and decomposes

And unites and distributes and networks in such a complex way

That it shreds our imagination

Nature is nothing more than consciousness that grows

It is we who become, in the infinite now

... the things you find under the pier!

I'm not lost, just wandering. Where I end up is not as important as what I see along the way.

For a few days each year, the sunlight from my neighbor's windows (at left) comes through my window (www.flickr.com/photos/79387036@N07/49735387972/in/photost...) before the actual sun clears my other neighbor's roof. This results in a rather artistic pattern of lights and shadows: www.flickr.com/photos/79387036@N07/49735062661/in/photost....

Oh yeah, my Border Collie Cody wanted to show-off.

a pond discovered on the westside outskirts of Lawton

Rydal Cave can be found on the north side of Loughrigg Fell above Rydal Water and, like Cathedral Cavern, is man made; a consequence of quarrying, again for slate in this case the slate was used for the roofing in the nearby village of Ambleside. Long disused, the cave can be entered by the public.

A colourful small pond in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

After 2 days of horrendous rain over the week-end many of the surrounding fields are flooded ....though a miserable time for the farmers ...makes for great reflections !!

So after being run over countless time this car mirror was just like glitter stuck to a piece of black plastic. So I set the camera on the roadside and had a very shallow depth of field to get this result.
