Living in the Pennines, Rock Pipit is a bird that I don't see very often, yet they are a common breeder around the rocky coasts of Britain. They are a bit bigger than Meadow Pipit, and have darker legs and smudgy breast markings with rather grey plumage. Here's a Meadow Pipit in a similar pose showing paler legs and crisper breast markings: www.flickr.com/photos/timmelling/54475808177/in/photolist
I photographed this Rock Pipit on the Isle of Mull this spring where they were common and confiding.
A wonderful National Park road in Waterton Lakes National Park, in Alberta, Canada. The Red Rock Road. A scenic 13km road of landscapes, nature and geology.
Note the Big Horn Sheep on the left hand side of the photograph with Mount Crandell directly behind them. Mount Blakiston is to the background, and the foothill of Bellevue Hill to the right.
A road that we have come to love.

This was some of the best rock towers I have ever seen. Even with the waves crashing in from the Irish Sea, it stood the test.
The Rock Wren may be one of the least colorful birds of Box Canyon, but surely it must be one of the most vocal.
I finally hiked down to Bonsai Rock yesterday. The trail from the highway was kind of sketchy. We had to locate an entry point and scrambled down to foot trail. When we got to the beach, the sun was behind the cloud projecting some soft light to the rocks.

New Brighton Lighthouse is a decommissioned lighthouse situated at the confluence of the River Mersey and Liverpool Bay on an outcrop off New Brighton known locally as Perch Rock. Together with its neighbour, the Napoleonic era Fort Perch Rock, it is one of the Wirral's best known landmarks.

A view from the top of the Misery Trail on the primary Smith Rock (there are 2 impressive geo formations).
One of the best hikes of my long life. Can't wait to return.
As always, thanks for your visit, comments and support.
Have a safe and wonderful Friday the 13th.

Edit:
This is the type of shot that one just can't resist taking.
I didn't have my camera with me and hoped that it would stay put while I went to fetch it.
When I came back a few minutes later it was still there, waiting for me to take the shot. 😁

We have some blue skies back in Hawaii. Well, mostly cloudy with passing blue. I tried to catch the sunrise this morning but ended up getting to the beach around 7:30ish (that's early for me). I tried my hardest to do some other photos for a while but here I am making another HDR Vertorama :)
This shot was taken at Sharks Cove on the North Shore in the morning. I think its one of the best spots on the island to do some snorkeling. I've seen some really odd fish there before. After going here we ended up going to a few beaches and the sunflower field one last time before the last row gets cut down.
Vertorama made from 2 HDR images made in photomatix from 7 exposures each. Before manually stitching them together I used the +2 exposure on the bottom section to lighten up the rocks a bit more and the -2 exposure to darken some of the light halo around the middle rocks. Added a layer of curves and small saturation layer. Finished it off with an unsharp mask of 100.
Chimney Rock is a famous, prominent geological formation in Morrill County in western Nebraska.
Rising over 90m above the surrounding North Platte River valley, the peak of Chimney Rock is 1,288m above sea level. During the middle 19th century it served as a landmark along the Oregon Trail, the California Trail, and the Mormon Trail, which ran along the north side of the rock. It is visible for many miles from the east along US Route 26.
Chimney Rock has been designated a National Historic Site and is today administered as an "affiliated area" by the National Park Service in co-operation with the Nebraska State Historical Society. Chimney Rock and Independence Rock further west are probably the most famous features along the Oregon Trail.

In its wild, natural setting Rock Doves nest in sea caves and sheltered cliff ledges. But the scarcity of such nesting sites forced the Rock Dove to become a social nester, unlike almost all other pigeons and doves. This social nature meant that it was easy to domesticate. By mediaeval times they were kept in large numbers for food, breeding in dovecotes but allowed to roam freely. Their willingness to return back to the dovecote led to their use as homing, then racing pigeons. And their ability to live alongside man led to the domesticated descendants colonising urban environments around the world. But this is the genuine wild ancestral Rock Dove, still nesting in sea caves on the Isle of Skye. Wild Rock Doves can be identified from wild type Feral Pigeons by their smaller head and bill, and especially by the small cere (that fleshy bit at the base of the bill). Wild Rock Doves also have a steeper forehead and a thin, dark orbital ring. Here's a Feral Pigeon with a puffy cere for comparison: www.flickr.com/photos/timmelling/15988282582/in/photolist
It is quite difficult to do something interesting with pigeons but I managed some backlighting and bokeh on this early morning shot.
