Seems they leave the blinds out all year now (unfortunately) and the blackbirds have no problems using them as perches to display from.
So the BIG question here is: Is this a one-legged bird? Where IS that other leg?

Everybody seems to lay or hatch eggs at the moment. Luise is not hatching her eggs. Laying eggs seems to be exhausting for her and the eggs were really big. Made us wonder, how Luise can hold the eggs under her shell. We don't keep the eggs in an incubator and thus we don't get new tortoises. We got 7 now. The male ones bite the females when they are in heat, and that's really no fun for the females. In the wild Hermann's tortoises become 30 years old but if there are no predators around they can become up to 90 years old. Luise will most likely live longer than me.
Who says Pronghorn can't jump? That seems to be a myth out there, probably because of their preference for going under fences, rather than over. Well, here's proof that they can and do jump!
On my two most recent trips into our nearby national park, I've encountered herds of 100 or more pronghorn - the most I've seen in Grasslands since the brutal winter of 2010-11 nearly wiped them out. Here, a group of about 75 decided to cross the road in front of me, and to do so they had to get over or through a long patch of icy meltwater. Some splashed, some leaped; it was fun to watch.
Unfortunately the unseasonably warm sunshine that melted most of the snow compromised focus, and almost all my shots of leaping pronghorns were unsharp. You can see some heat shimmer in the background of this shot. Luckily I did come away with a couple of sharp ones.

Seemed like this shot took forever. The RBNH would get real close often but never exactly where I wanted, and on two occasions he'd hit the spot but I wasn't fast enough...he only gives the briefest of moments to nab him. Finally after 3 weeks a satisfying shot.
It seems like all of the autumn months have a solid start: September with the new Crow movie, October with the massive 15th Montana ( flic.kr/p/2qndLFM ) and now, November with the first locomotive of the MMV Zrt. This colourful Asea started its hungarian career as 400-628 at the private company in 2007, 17 years ago. It's so much time, isn't it? Today the Asea pulled a freight train loaded with crap metal from Curtici to Hodos. It stepped aside for a few minutes on Budaörs, and continued its long journey behind the passenger trains.

A river seems like a magic thing. A moving, living part of the very earth itself. Be like a river. Be open. Flow, my friend...
Das Leben ist wie ein Fluss. Ein Fluss scheint etwas Magisches zu sein. Ein sich bewegender, lebendiger Teil der Erde selbst. Sei wie ein Fluss. Sei offen. Fluss..
La vida es como un río. Un río parece una cosa mágica. Una parte viva y en movimiento de la misma tierra. Ser como un río. Estar abierto. Fluir..
La vie est comme un fleuve. Une rivière semble être une chose magique. Une partie mouvante et vivante de la terre elle-même. Soyez comme un fleuve. Être ouvert. Couler..
La vita è come un fiume. Un fiume sembra una cosa magica. Una parte mobile e viva della terra stessa. Sii come un fiume. Essere aperto. Fluire..
Some people seem to watch life pass by like a film or scenery through a train window.
The Japanese expression "window seat tribe" refers to employees who are purposely isolated in the workplace from the team by their superiors and withheld from work assignments. The ostracized person has little to do except sit and look forlornly out the window, uncertain of their fate at the company.

Seems that I have been held, in some dreaming state
A tourist in the waking world, never quite awake
No kiss, no gentle word could wake me from this slumber
Until I realized that it was you who held me under
Felt it in my fist, in my feet, in the hollows of my eyelids
Shaking through my skull, through my spine and down through my ribs

This concept didn't quite work out the way I wanted it to, but it felt good to even have a concept again at all.
Inspired by her amazingness.

It seems like only yesterday that my eldest started uni.....driving through bus lanes with the car packed full......I've consoled myself that from various points in the Wirral I can kind of see him over there....well the general direction of where he'll be!
But as this academic year draws to an end and Masters beckons he'd decided on a totally different part of the country .......I'm taking it as new places for me to explore too - obviously bringing his favourite foods in a survival hamper along :)
Fall seems to be the time for ornamental cabbages and kales, displaying beautifully colored leaves, like Spring flowers... they last long thru the winter and actually flower in the Spring... I buy some to have it in front of my door to cheer things up.. this year, so far I bought only one, last year I had a few...
seems the principle forces that swirl the cosmos are at work in this plant, giving us colors and shapes...
please see large :)
It seems a good while since I've done anything meaningful in Scotland, the first location in Aberdour was a total washout with the rain appearing from nowhere, in fact in 4 days in Fife I must have seen about 7 or 8 unpredictable sea storms just come rolling in. This was early evening and another is making it's way towards the East Neuk of Fife so I had to really rush to get here and set up before it hit, in the end I managed about 20 minutes of shooting here before yet again the entire area went black and the rains came, this would be the only day where I could do this location due to the weather and tides combining so I was made up to come away with some images of it at last, this time the storms working in my favour instead of against me.
Anyone who's shot this location will know how tricky it is balancing yourself and all your stuff on the narrow wall in the wind, with a concrete floor behind you and the sea in front it isn't somewhere you want to be falling off....
"It seems to me that this war is currently the most important conflict taking place in the world.
Perhaps this is the end of the Cold War. Because it calls into question all these basic, fundamental values and norms of world order, world order. It's like a school situation where there's some bully terrorizing the whole school, and everyone else stands by and watches to see if that bully can win against the normal, good students. And the same is happening all over the world.
If Putin is allowed to win, we will see more "Putins" in South America, in Asia, and so on. If, on the other hand, this bully is stopped and punished, then it will become clear that you cannot be a bully, you cannot be this bully, you will rely on the rules. And this is the idea of democracy, peace, international law and world order."

“Мені здається, що війна в Україні наразі є найважливішим конфліктом, що відбувається у світі.
Можливо, це закінчення Холодної війни. Тому що вона ставить під сумнів всі ці базові, засадничі цінності і норми світопорядку, світового ладу. Це ситуація, як у школі, коли є якийсь хуліган, який тероризує всю школу, а всі решта стоять і дивляться, чи цей хуліган зможе перемогти у протистоянні з нормальними, хорошими учнями. І так само відбувається по всьому світі.
Якщо дозволять Путіну перемогти, то ми побачимо більше «путіних» у Південній Америці, в Азії і так далі. Якщо ж з іншого боку, цього хулігана зупинять і покарають, то тоді стане зрозуміло, що ви не можете бути гопником, ви не можете бути цим буллером, ви будете покладатися на правила. І в цьому і полягає ідея демократії, миру, міжнародного права і світового порядку.”

Seems it was late afternoon relax time. Two quite content to preen and chill while the one casually sifted the water, not caring to move from where it stood. They're looking so healthy. Must be plenty of food down there.
Seems ages since we visited the Lake District. This is the lovely wee tree that sits at the water's edge. Despite the rain showers, we had a great day. And our favorite ice cream van was out, Jackpot :)
I seem to recall this rare Subaru being pictured before in a different location. I was cycling past so took a couple of snaps, its looked abandoned with a slighlty deflated tyre but it still has an MOT.
What seemed like a rare cam morning... definitely some warmth returning to the sun and sounds of life returning in the local birds
This effect seemed to be caused by sea spray being force up from small caves under the rocks....there was a lot of smoke in the air from BBQ,s, a South African tradition on the new year.
I know, with all the getting lost etc., we seem to have been heading to Jandowae for ages! This small former railway town at the end of its own branch line north west of Dalby, Queensland is in the middle of a grain growing and agricultural district. But like other towns (Bell for instance) changes to transportation meant the town lost its railway branch line that was used in latter days for bulk grain back in June 2013. Not all that long ago.
It's easy to sniff out the former railway station and yard as some infrastructure like this old crane still exists and it's all basically in the middle of town. The cranes, back in the day would have had adjacent sidings and used for loading wagons with general goods and dairy products and maybe bales of wool or bags of wheat before methods changed to bulk loads (see link below). The old crane sits as a silent sentinel to what was the normal way of life in country Australia and in fact, around the world back before bulk took on.
Jandowae has managed to retain an ex Queensland Railways steam locomotive of Class C17 and it can be found at the local caravan park.

Sometimes things seem to not look as bad as it is. Dangerous! Slippery when icy. very inviting. Enter at your own risk. Doesn’t look that icy but dare to walk across it you will find out the hard way. I was laying down on the ice to get this pov I wanted with the reflection! Turned out better than expected!

This massive sculpture of metal does not seem at first glance to be relevant to London’s greatest Gardens. However the design is related to a beehive. The Hive is the design of UK based artist Wolfgang Buttress. It was originally created as the centrepiece of the UK Pavilion at the 2015 Milan Expo. It is constructed from around 170,000 parts including thousands of pieces of aluminium, each of which catch the changing sunlight. There are 1000 LED lights dotted around its core which glow and fade while a unique soundtrack hums and buzzes around you. These multi-sensory elements of the Hive are in fact responding to real-time activity of bees in a beehive at Kew. The sound and light intensity within the space changes as the energy levels in the real beehive surge, giving visitors an insight into the life inside a bee colony.
This shot is taken from the space underneath the sculpture looking up to the next level and its glass floor. I found the pictures which had people on the next level were the more interesting giving some scale. In this case it was another photographer looking down. I had just finished taking photographs when Martin Emmett another member of my local Camera Club coincidentally turned up, small world.
The picture was taken handheld with a Sony A700 with a Sigma 10-20 mm lens at 10mm. 3 raw images 2EV spacing processed with Photomatix Fusion Real Estate for a natural look. Noise reduction with Topaz DeNoise and more detail with Topaz Clarity. I used a second stronger round of Topaz Clarity on another layer with a layer mask applying it only to the Photographer above

Seems so long ago now. Taken back in July, the summer, we never really had (well apart from this evening).
And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Joshua 24:15 (AMP)
HSS! Have a Blessed and wonderful day!

It seems a little late in the year to be spotting fledglings, but maybe I just don't know that much about nature.
I heard a bunch of chirping in this bush and went to investigate thinking it would a more developed bird and to my surprise I came face to face with a cardinal fledgling.
Nice find, and I managed to get a shot before the Mama cardinal got sick of me.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

It seems impossible to explain with words, so pictures help try to express how it feels to live this experience.

I have become very fascinated by digital pinhole photography. This image was created with a modified pinhole body cap. I think I’m drawn to this type of photography because I feel it relates to my life and it seems to teach me far beyond photography. There are strict limitations that can drastically alter how images are captured and the final outcome of the photos, there is a lack of clarity compared to how I normally capture images with a lens, it’s difficult to predict exactly how the image will look and beauty and meaning can be found in the process and the final photo. It gives me a chance to practice embracing the unfamiliar, change, finding beauty in imperfection and growing in new ways. And the look of the images reminds me of how it feels when the effects of trauma cause me to question reality and myself, feel terror, feel isolated, alone, deep sadness, dissociation, body memories and a range of other indescribably challenging experiences. When my voice is stolen and I cannot speak or find adequate words to describe what I face I am thankful I can relate my experiences to what I see in pinhole photography rather than “keeping it all inside.”
____________________________
As a way to cope with circumstances beyond my control, survive and work to keep fighting for life I decided to try to take at least one photo (or more) each day. I call this “a photo (or more) a day.” Practicing this form of therapeutic photography helps me work to focus on the present moment, gives me something familiar and enjoyable to focus on as I use photography skills that have become like second-nature to me and being able to view the images I capture helps me recall what I was thinking, feeling and noticing at the moment when I created the photos. More of the photos from this series can be seen on my Instagram account
I may not always have the energy, time or capacity to share photos from this series—especially with the very challenging circumstances my family and I are experiencing—and will do my best to continue taking a photo (or more) a day even if I’m not able to share.
If you would like to support my work and my family, one way you can do so is by ordering my zines:
Many thanks for your support.
They seem to be enjoying their vacation in these parts, perhaps the dining is the big attraction, they arrive before 6:30 in the mornings and hang around for 12 hours
The spider seems to have woven a new web outside our kitchen window. The double-paned window had been cleaned inside, but not outside. (The blurry dark vertical lines are the balusters supporting the railing around the deck.)
At the moment that I snapped this, the wind was causing the web to dance vigorously. When I looked at the image on the computer, I was surprised that the filaments had as much definition as they do.
Seems to have vauxhall badges on the rear and Opel wheel trims but the number plate it comes up as an Opel which is probably right.

It seems that there is just one fledgling blackbird from the nest behind the garage and it is now living very dangerously in our garden. Tasku nearly got it today but fortunately disaster was averted and I was able to get this shot earlier this evening when it was happily sunbathing. Momma and Pop are still feeding it but I will be glad when it can fly!

Seems like everyone is on the web these days ... tee hee ...
Sure HOPE All Of You Are Having A Great Week ...
It seems like very little effort to me to go on my lunch to Gelt Woods and take a photo for this project. After all it is precisely 6 minutes from my office car park until I am standing in the spot this was taken at.
I realise I have it easy in this respect and perhaps that is how it should be - but for a change I made an extra effort. Although the river isn't deep at all I didn't want to fall in and the rock banks are precariously slippy, something that concerned me a little during my leafy handicrafts.
Plus during the making of this photograph, not one but two acorns fell on my head.
The hoverfly seemed to have staked out this flower. When a green sweat bee came along she seemed strangely wary of the fly. They didn't want to share. They jockeyed for position. The bee snuck a couple sips of nectar before going on her way. The fly's larvae will protect the plant against aphids. The bee might not realize it, but the hoverfly's life cycle protects the food source for both insects. Best leave her alone, and leave her some nectar.
Thank you to everyone who visits, faves, and comments.

This seems to be a customary shot for all of us WDW photographers. The ceiling shot of the Temple of Heaven is almost a right of passage in WDW photography world. :) I've always loved this building, both inside and out for it's great detail and superb color. I of course have the straight up shot, but I really liked the way this came out with my UWA lens. What do you all think? Enjoy!
I seem to remember Bart Simpson being asked by Milhouse what super-power he wished he'd been born with. Bart replies "The ability to see through time".
That may not have actually happened, but I do, however, know that in one episode Lisa Simpson, when fed some very spicy food, did say "... I can see through time!".
The references to Frank Herbert's science fiction classic, 'Dune', are clear, and so I'm wondering if I'd had a particularly spicy breakfast on the morning of the BRCC Watercress Line trip, where these shots were taken. It's that idea of being able to see through time that fascinates me so.
"I can see through time!"
