On April 29th I started my day at 2:45 am. I drove with three friends to a lek in Southern Alberta. We had to be in the blind by 5 am. It sure took a long time before there was enough light to take photos. We could hear the grouse. They were making many sounds and we could see their outlines in the dark. It was another great day. The last time I was out there was two years ago.
I was using a brand new camera so I had many photos to delete and of course far too many photos over all. Most photos were only cropped. I didn't adjust any colors. Some photos are not even cropped.
Thanks for your visits and comments. They are all greatly appreciated!
Sharp-tailed Grouse (Tympanuchus phasianellus) displaying on a lek in the prairie grasslands of west central Saskatchewan, Canada.
Courtship display or "dancing" usually begins at first light but photography was not feasible until the sun started to peak over the horizon. When they are actively displaying they will drum their feet while scurrying across the ground, and this drumming can be heard, under calm conditions, for quite a distance from the lek or "dancing grounds". Activity will intensify when a female wanders through the dancing grounds or lek.
They would continue displaying for about a couple of hours then disperse across the grassland pasture to feed and rest.

This is a matte remover my husband and I bought to help us care for our Persian cat's impossible fur. It's stored with a plastic guard over the blades. I like how the bit of fur shows up in this photo, illustrating what it's for as well as contrasting with the sharpness of the blades.
This juvenile Sharp-shinned Hawk came for a visit on my back fence. A bluejay has his attention and is working hard to get him out of the area.

I thought about the Michelangelo Painting.
I am not angelical however. There is a lot of sharpness in me.
I can be as sharp as a knife. I can cut and hurt and with great precision. Don't get on the wrong side of my blade.
But if you cut me I will bleed just as much; as I am human as human can be.
Looking for sharpness and contrast across the frame – and finding it! The RX100M5 delivers. This is at f/2.8, but really, it's more like f/8, so it's not very surprising.
But I don't know if it's also T/2.8, because the ISO is only 160, at a 1/50 sec exposure in indoors light, so the image is very clean and noise free.
No material CA or any kind of magenta / green fringing, even at high contrast edges. This is an exceptionally well corrected lens with a proven record over at least the last three generations of this camera.

Sharp PC-1500 pocket computer from the early 1980's - considered very powerful in its day. It replaced the famous PC-1211/ PC-1212, although the 1500 was much larger.
baby brother of the classic 4 speaker GF777 found at the recycling centre and may be used as part of my DJ set at this years Shambala festival.I find old vinyl records and vintage equipment for a recycled, renewable wheelbarrow disco down in Dorset, UK! I love posting interesting audio and decor on flickr.com to see what sort of response the items receive. You can follow highlights of the 'finds' on my twitter just follow 'joimson'

Meg Garvin, M.A., J.D., an executive director for the National Crime Victim Law Institute and clinical professor of law at Lewis & Clark Law School, gives a presentation on sexual assault victim’s legal rights to attendees of the 3rd annual Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention Summit Aug. 2-3, 2016, at the Golden Lion conference center, Caserma Ederle, Vicenza, Italy. The presentation followed an active duty survivor’s first-hand accounts of sexual assault and presentation from a psychologist on how those accounts impact brain function, which Garvin used to help explain the struggles some victims encounter when seeking legal justice.

I can't reliably distinguish Sharp-Shinned from young Cooper's Hawks, so I'll go with the ID provided via iNaturalist.
Teazel, they are the origin of the phrase "to tease something out" as they were used for cleaning up raw wool.
Next up on my journey home to Hampshire (07/02/2025) was a look in at Sharpes of Langar. Their coach fleet is made up of absolutely immaculate Van Hool coaches and has got to be one of the best presented in the UK. Simple as that!
Thanks go to the Sharpes staff for showing me around.

Sharp (Hayakawa Electric Industry Co., Ltd) was founded by Tokuji Hayakawa in 1915. The company started by making pencils...the "Ever-Sharp" pencil to be exact. (I would assume that's where the name Sharp came from). In 1925 they began producing crystal radio sets and made their first AC/tube radio sets in 1928.
They claim to have produced Japan's first commercially released TV set (the TV3-14T) in 1953.
