After the Culver's binge we went up to the Sonoran Desert Preserve in northern Phoenix, another place Flickr maps doesn't know exists, I loved this place. I liked this location more than I liked the Mountain Preserve I just showed, this one had more cacti and the mountains felt very climbable. I actually went almost to the top of one and back down, here come more spines in the socks!
These cacti are unbelievably tall. From the perspective it's hard to tell, but that cactus is no shorter than 35-40 feet tall. No joke.

Built a little stand for my ship, the Cervina. It took me a long damned time to come up with an unconventional design to hold the unconventional shape of the ship, which I built with no foresight as to how it would be displayed.
I came up with this by holding the two bent technic bars and cradling the ship with them, kind of like an egg on a spoon. Then there was the whole lightbulb moment, and there you have it.
I attended Canon Photo Marathon today; It was a wonderful event. It really tested a photographer. Given a theme, working out on a photograph within 1-1/2 hours is tedious. Not so easy!
I performed tremendously bad.. I need a lot of improvement in me :'(
I shot this one for our last theme "Standing out" - Clicked using 50mm f1.8 lens at 1.8 which produced this DoF focusing only on one show piece. It was shot just at the submitting time..
Long barrows were constructed as earthen or drystone mounds with flanking ditches and acted as funerary monuments during the Early and Middle Neolithic periods (3400-2400 BC). They represent the burial places of Britain's early farming communities and, as such, are amongst the oldest field monuments surviving visibly in the present landscape. Where investigated, long barrows appear to have been used for communal burial, often with only parts of the human remains having been selected for interment. Certain sites provide evidence for several phases of funerary monument preceding the barrow and, consequently, it is probable that long barrows acted as important ritual sites for local communities over a considerable period of time. Some 500 long barrows are recorded in England. As one of the few types of Neolithic structure to survive as earthworks, and due to their comparative rarity, their considerable age and their longevity as a monument type, all long barrows are considered to be nationally important.
This example has a particularly well-preserved burial chamber and is also of high archaeological potential due to the survival of the remains of the burial mound and the flanking ditches. The burial chamber having been taken into guardianship, the monument is also of high amenity value. The Long Barrow is situated on level ground at the crest of the North Downs overlooking the Medway valley. It is oriented approximately E-W, with the stone chamber near the eastern end. The most distinctive feature of the monument is the H-shaped arrangement of 3 large sarsen slabs, capped by a further slab, which formed the main burial chamber of the Long Barrow. Although these large stones, or megaliths, now stand unsupported, they are believed originally to have been buried within a large, elongated earthen mound, of which only traces survive today. The mound was some 80m in length and 12-15m in width and was probably broader at the eastern end than at the western end. Earth and chalk for the construction of this mound was quarried from the now-infilled flanking ditches which run parallel to it. These quarry ditches are more clearly visible on aerial photographs than on the ground. Such photographs indicate that the northern ditch extended for the full length of the mound while the southern ditch was shorter, not extending as far as either end of the mound. The monument has been the subject of enquiry since 1570, but no satisfactory explanation for the name has yet been found. Historical accounts suggest that the mound was surrounded by a revetment of sarsens positioned at intervals, some of which may survive beneath the ploughsoil but most of which have been unearthed and/or destroyed, the latest as recently as 1947. Although no bones have been reported by any of the investigators of the monument, the strong similarity with other examples which have yielded such evidence allows the safe interpretation of Kit's Coty House as a Neolithic burial monument.
Dug out my storage box and rebuilt this... Miss it so much! :'( I couldn't get the original door so I had to improvise with the taller newer door...
Oyestercatchers are quite known to stand still on sands when resting, but I have never seen one doing that in rapidly flowing waters. So I decided to capture the motion of water. It was a bright day.. all I could manage was f/32 and 1/25 sec.
An early morning visit to Brunswick Point has both Sandhill Cranes and Snow Geese feeding in the open strip of soil between the farmer's plantings.

Even though these nodding trillium have the most lush green leaves, the lighting in this one seemed to call out for black and white. And so it is. OM 90mm at probably f5.6 or 8.

I took Lewis and Joshua out for the afternoon and they had a great time playing at the park and I managed to catch a few shots when I came across this lovely sculpture!
There is wonderful detail in the sculpture of the elderly gentleman which reminded me of a quote I heard many years ago .....
