Risk It All
By Yuna
Let me tell you what
I’ve been thinking about
Love is on my mind
Yea I’m freakin’ out
When I’m lying down
Feels like somethings wrong
Coz I got someone
Waiting for me now
In my mind,
we’re holding hands
Do you see it baby?
In my mind
We don’t got to pretend
Can you feel it babe?
I would risk it all
Just to feel your touch
I just want it all
If it aint too much
If the sky should fall
We can say we tried
Boy its natural
Let our worlds collide
Someone told me once
When you find your love
Hang on to it tight
Never let it go
Not gonna wait to find the courage
I’m gon’ go ahead and say it
Before it’s too late
Just listen to me baby
In my mind,
we’re holding hands
Do you see it baby?
In my mind
We don’t got to pretend
Can you feel it babe?
I would risk it all
Just to feel your touch
I just want it all
If it aint too much
If the sky should fall
We can say we tried
Boy its natural
Let our worlds collide
I would leave it all
To be with you
You should leave it all
To be with me too

Elvaston Castle is a stately home in Elvaston, Derbyshire, England. The Gothic Revival castle and surrounding parkland is run and owned by Derbyshire County Council as a country park known as Elvaston Castle Country Park. The country park has 200 acres (0.81 km2) of woodlands, parkland and formal gardens.
The centrepiece of the estate is the Grade II* Listed Elvaston Castle. The castle has been neglected and is in need of restoration. Due to its condition, the building is not open to the public, and since 2008 has been listed on the Buildings at Risk Register.

Ticks are small, parasitic arachnids that can carry and transmit various diseases to humans and animals. Some common diseases associated with ticks include:
1. Lyme Disease: It is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and is transmitted primarily by the black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis) in North America. Symptoms include fever, fatigue, headache, muscle and joint aches, and a characteristic skin rash.
2. Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF): It is caused by the bacterium Rickettsia rickettsii and is transmitted by the American dog tick (Dermacentor variabilis) and the Rocky Mountain wood tick (Dermacentor andersoni). Symptoms include high fever, headache, rash, and muscle aches.
3. Babesiosis: It is caused by microscopic parasites of the Babesia family and is transmitted primarily by the black-legged tick. Symptoms may include fever, fatigue, muscle aches, and anemia.
4. Ehrlichiosis: It is caused by bacteria of the Ehrlichia family and is transmitted by the Lone Star tick (Amblyomma americanum) and the black-legged tick. Symptoms may include fever, headache, fatigue, and muscle aches.
To avoid tick-borne diseases, consider the following preventive measures:
1. Wear protective clothing: When venturing into tick-prone areas like forests or grassy areas, wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and closed-toe shoes. Tuck pants into socks and opt for light-colored clothing to spot ticks easily.
2. Use tick repellents: Apply an EPA-approved insect repellent containing DEET (N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide) or picaridin on exposed skin. Permethrin-based repellents can be used on clothing, shoes, and camping gear to repel ticks.
3. Perform regular tick checks: After spending time outdoors, thoroughly check your body for ticks. Pay close attention to areas such as the scalp, behind the ears, underarms, groin, and the back of the knees. Promptly remove any attached ticks using tweezers, grasping them as close to the skin's surface as possible.
4. Create a tick-safe environment: Keep lawns and outdoor recreational areas well-maintained. Clear leaf litter, tall grasses, and brush around your home to minimize tick habitats. Consider using tick control products or seek professional pest control services if necessary.
5. Check pets and gear: Pets can carry ticks indoors, so ensure regular tick checks and appropriate tick prevention measures for your pets. Examine camping gear, backpacks, and other outdoor equipment for ticks before bringing them indoors.
Remember, early detection and proper removal of ticks can reduce the risk of contracting tick-borne diseases. If you develop symptoms after a tick bite, seek medical attention promptly and inform your healthcare provider about the exposure to ticks.

Notch chases my car on my way to work, you can tell he's a risk taker! I think he feels a bit left out with all my deer shots. He gave me a pose I couldn't pass up. Too bad even though I think he's adorable, most people will just pass this pic by.

I loved this in B/W but it seemed such a shame to take the color away. Steve came up with the brilliant idea of doing half and half! : )

dedication
this picture is dedicated to the valiant, tireless and overworked women and men around the world who, at great risk to themselves and to their families and friends, fight, sacrifice and increasingly die heroically trying to treat, save, comfort and console the infected and keep safe their communities.
in this time of great human suffering, uncertainty and angst, my heart weeps for these amazing people with tears of profound awe, sorrow and, most of all, thanks.
please, if you are able, raise your voice and your wallet to support and fight hard from the outside so that those on the front lines inside can do their best safely with the personal protective equipment they terribly need and so-richly deserve.
life is short. please do not forget to share the love you have while you can.
finally, many thanks to each of you for your consistent, heartwarming friendship and kind words of support. you put smiles on my face each and every day and i am deeply appreciative.
keep the faith and be safe.

While hunting for a composition, I came across this rocky area at Marshall Point. It looked like it had potential, so I examined it further from various perspectives. As in Risk Management, one hedges against the future hoping for the best outcome. And since it is always a crap shoot, we do our best to prepare as best we can.
The sunset may or may not arrive. But 80% of successful landscape photography is being there. After that, having a scenic landscape combined with sunset colours, help with the final result. The rest is in the form of technique and can be found on numerous YouTube videos.
The winter weather is absolutely brutal as Metra 143 heads outbound with a Union Pacific Northwest Line train, passing under the searchlights at Clybourn Junction, Chicago. Windchills were well below -20 degrees F, and raw, ripping wind was driving powdery snow into every crevice. Risking frostbite and hypothermia like an idiot, I stood outside on the platform for over an hour here to document the (Covid-reduced) "rush" in some of the most intense winter conditions Chicago had seen in a few years.
A wider version of the view from Mount Tamalpais over San Francisco than something I uploaded a few weeks ago, the park is supposed to close at sunset, and I was at the end of the park road, a 30 minute drive from the gate, already 20 minutes AFTER sunset, I was worried about getting locked inside, when I arrived, the parking area was almost full, when I left, there was only one other car remaining. I hope they made it out in time, I drove like crazy down the road, and the rangers seemed ready to lock the gate behind me, and no, you cannot camp at the summit. The weather conditions were exceptionally clear that day, it's not worth the risk and stress otherwise.

I hold my breath and Mark is ready to catch a video😄 as Dustin stands at the edge of the Lake on a steel groin. He’s focused only on the shot, balanced above the water with that familiar mix of boldness and calm. It’s a moment that captures exactly who he is steady, curious, and always willing to step a little closer to the edge to see the world in his own way.
I risked a walk with Archie the dog today in Glen Cannich. We managed to dodge the showers but only just.
This shot is from the path above Liatrie.
Whilst going out to take photos in remote areas is exercise and is unlikely to be high risk for virus transmission, the government guidelines do ask us to minimise the time spent outdoors. For the different types of photography that interest myself I am unlikely to capture the images I want in an hour or so, and so therefore might as well not bother.... not to mention all the kit I need to lug about - I hardly look like I'm purely taking exercise.... then there is the 'unnecessary' car journey I would need to make.... oh and the looks and comments I would get from people who might live more 'locally' than myself.... even if I travelled within my own 'local council' borough. Perhaps the government can have two different definitions of the word 'local'.
Anyway, for all these reasons, photography is off the cards for myself at the moment. So the bonus is looking through the archives.
For now, that's where my images are coming from.
Keeping myself busy though building a new website, putting a couple of books together and of course elite sport is continuing for the time being so my other 'day' job is taking a good slice of my time too.
Many thanks for taking the time to view, fave and/or comment on some of my images.
Risk and Reward - A New Year's photography resolution for me was to capture wildlife in the elements more. Photographing in the rain can certainly be risky (requires great care with equipment), but also rewards one with some of the best behavioral and artistic image opportunities.
I spent several hours photographing this particular male hummingbird who I've come to know over the years. I took almost 1,500 images, and of all those, this was the only one where the lighting, pose, colors, sharpness, and raindrops all came together to convey the rainforest mood I sought to capture.
I look forward to capturing more unique images in the rain this year!
Species: Anna's Hummingbird (Calypte anna)
Location: Santa Clara County, CA, USA
Equipment: Canon EOS R7 + EF 100-400mm IS II
Settings: 1/400s, ISO: 1600, f/5.6 @640mm, Handheld, Electronic Shutter
Tonight, many people in Cumbria are at risk from severe and dangerous flooding.....my heart goes out to them. Let's hope dry London has taken notice....my son was flooded in July and has just returned to his house in December.
