The stark remains of a tree at Ashley Walk in the New Forest. A lovely sunny autumn day here this afternoon. I managed to escape my Nanny duties this week (daughter has finished her studies) and go for much needed walks!

Sonne pur und ein Mond der nicht schlafen gehen wollte, oder hatte er auf mich gewartet und wollte mir ein schönes Foto bescheren.
State Historical Museum
The State Historical Museum is a museum of Russian history wedged between Red Square and Manege Square in Moscow.
Das Staatliche Historische Museum in Moskau ist das bekannteste Museum für Landesgeschichte in Russland. Es befindet sich in einem 1883 errichteten Gebäude, das architektonisch stark an die altrussische Baukunst angelehnt ist, im Zentrum Moskaus an der Nordwestseite des Roten Platzes.
This cool early morning at Blackwater Refuge was peaceful and pretty in a stark way. It was also fun as I was taking these photos listening to the osprey and eagles there making their morning noises ;)
They were flying all about there in the morning and the sounds carried well over the water.
It seems like ages since I uploaded any black and white images, and just looking it was actually back in November last year, so to break up the colour uploads I thought I'd share this one.
Taken back in February of this year this was a bitterly cold morning on the banks of Loch Lomond, with snow still on the mountains in the distance, not much of an issue if you are are just grabbing a passing shot, much more so though when your image exposure time runs into minutes, which with a heavily overcast day it was always going to as the ND filters were always going to be brought into play, jumping about near to the camera to keep warm wasn't an option for obvious reasons so I had to do it further along the shore, a few people were about walking their dogs, I don't know if they actually noticed the camera set up but needless to say I got a few strange looks..
Eh, most people probably won't like this too much, but I had fun making it so I'm uploading it anyway! : )
Scotland is a rich and diverse country but in the north it is incredibly difficult for mother nature to work her magic, here are some trees, similar to those from the historic Caledonian Forest which once covered the majority of Scotland from north to south and east to west/
Saturday Self Challenge: Dutch Angle
Dutch Angle involves deliberately tilting the camera when taking the shot so that horizons and verticals are no longer horizontal and upright in the image, generally done to add some drama or tension in to the resulting image.
i didnt find it easy to choose a topic for this week's challenge, but eventually settled on this one.
Photographed in an inland area of Australia, this stand of trees is regrowth of a small pine. In actual color the leaves are a subdued green, contrasting with the black stem. As it was mid-day on a hot spring day, I used black and white to create a contrast and mood of starkness,
Use of the Dutch Angle hopefully adds a little more drama to the scene.
Das Schloss Diersfordt ist ein Wasserschloss im Weseler Stadtteil Diersfordt, das auf eine mittelalterliche Burg der Herren von Wylich zurückgeht und eine fast 700-jährige Geschichte vorweisen kann.
Als Lehen der Grafen von der Mark sowie der Herzöge von Kleve befand sich die Anlage nach Aussterben der von Wylich ab 1831 im Besitz der Grafen zu Stolberg-Wernigerode. Beide Familien bauten sie beständig aus und schließlich zu einem Schloss im Stil des Spätbarocks um. Durch einen Brand im Jahr 1928 vollkommen zerstört, wurde es ab 1929 stark vereinfacht neu errichtet. Lediglich ein Gebäude der Vorburg blieb bis in die heutige Zeit nahezu unverändert.
