A photographer stands on the edge of the Higger Tor escarpment and the silhouette just reminds me of the phrase "chasing the light". Well I certainly got the light on this occasion as the sun dipped over the western horizon in the Peak District. I was precariously perched on the Kit Kat rocks looking along the escarpment as there was a photography workshop taking up the usual positions for sunset when I arrived there. So I was forced to improvise! These book end shaped rocks normally feature in sunrise shots as they are lit up by the dawn light. You can make out some other photographers on the far ridge near the setting sun.
My tripod was set at a strange angle just to get this shot and I was balancing shakily to utilise the live view on my camera. Good job it wasn't too windy up there. I have posted a portrait view of this scene, but I like this one and the photographer on the ridge helps make it more poignant.
That reminds me I'm really enjoying Peaky Blinders! Through the window Photo copyright Pat Adams
Hi everyone amazing, thank you all for the favs, views and comments and getting my little Starling into Explore.
*There is an error message when I try and reply to comments, so will try again later, in the meantime Cheers to each and every one of you.
This flower reminds me, first, of an old fashioned flash bulb, on the old Kodak cameras. The kind that looked like a big cube, and would rotate 3 times between shots. When I was a youth that was the camera I used. Adjacent to Phipps conservatory is Carnegie Mellon University, and one of the buildings used to be called the flash bulb because it looked like that: a big cube flash bulb. When you would look inside any of the sides of the flash cube, the element or filament looked like this flower, with a hood to reflect the light.
Secondly, this reminds me of an indiginous plant to Western Pennsylvania called the Jack in the Pulpit, which comes out in our woods in the spring. I look forward to spring !
I'm honestly in love with this combo. If anybody wants to use it, please do. Just give credit :)
Stay frosty, bros and broditas!

I still have classes today. I'm glad I was able to take a picture before the sun went down (at 5pm? what). I hope I will come up with better pictures this weekend.

Oh my wonders, first time ever on front page! Thank you so, so much for making this possible! You are an inspiration! Thank you so, so much. :)
This just reminded me of that universal pouting pose that young girls do when being photographed. It also gives a good view of their feeding mechanism for sucking the contents out of clams. They have an airtight (actually watertight) mouth and a muscular tongue (just about visible) that creates negative pressure like a piston for sucking shellfish out of their shells. But I can't work out why the lower jaw seems to have discoloured the tusk where it comes into contact. I thought that might have been the cleanest part of the tusk that is regularly "polished" by the lips, but I'm not a dentist.
This tree reminds me of an angler dangling his rod in the fast flowing waters of the river, patiently awaiting a bite from a hungry fish. The area is one of my favourite locations on Dartmoor and I have already had another two visits here since this image was taken.

Reminds me of Pierrot and Harlequin ;-)

Tune: Shinedown - Simple Man
Well, mama told me, when I was young
Said sit beside me, my only son,
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this, it'll help you some sunny day
Ah
Yeah, it will
Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find a woman and you'll find love
And don't forget that there is a someone up above
Be a simple kind of man
Be a something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can
(if you can)
Forget your lust from the rich man's gold
All that you need now is in your soul
And you can do this (oh, baby) if you try
All that I want from you, my son, is to be satisfied
And be a simple kind of man
Be a something that you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can
(if you can)
Oh, don't you worry
You'll find yourself
Follow your heart
And nothing else
And you can do this (oh, baby) if you try
All that I want from you, my son, is to be satisfied
And be a simple kind of man
Be a something that you love and understand
So, baby, be a simple be a simple man
Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can
Reminded of some unposted P&W stuff by Blaze's addition this morning here's my shot of the Valley Falls job at Ashton.
I want this shot in the jobs normal mid morning time slot but I'll settle for dark side with foliage....for now.
Reminds me of something NASA would see through the Hubbel telescope....You would surprised how hard the elves are to find this time of year, Sue and Lynnie!!
Reminds me of the old Hollywood headshots with light falling across the eyes. Super star.

I had so much fun 'shooting up' the Monterey Aquarium with Connie. You may recall how much I love the jellies ... so it was where I spent the most time!
I did just a wee bit of sliding for this ... well ... maybe just a tad bit more than wee!!

A Flickr friend reminded me that I did not post the photos made with this beautiful lens for a while. RE, Auto Topcor 58mm f1.4 is one of the finest lens in my collection. As a portrait lens it is second to none, but it is an excellent all around lens. Maybe not ideal for street photos. No sharpening or colour correction is done. Just a bit overall contrast with exposition curve because I like to have all light zones in photos.
Reminds me a bit of Jack and the bean stalk :-)

Reminds me of a Harry Potter scene somewhere in a dark wood hunting for the Gryffindor Sword, but only golden leaves are revealed with dark magic.
Kay reminded me the other day that our very first photo together was an Easter photo. So, of course, we had to find a way to take another one this year.
Unfortunately, we didn't have much time to take it and for a while I was a bit grumpy that it hadn't turned out exactly as I'd hoped.
But as I look at it now, I am just so grateful that over the last year I have gotten to know Kay. We have shared so many adventures in SL and have talked so much on Skype that our words could probably wrap around the moon by now.
She is always thoughtful and kind, she generously shares in both my joys and my sorrows and has shown herself time and time again, to be a true and dear friend.
I am one lucky bunny.
