This red tailed hawk had taken off from a tall perch, and was making slow circles over the area. Near Commonwealth Lake.

Wenigenjenaer Ufer, Jena

From a walk by the sea a few days ago.

A hooded merganser (Lophodytes cucullatus) drake on calm water. It was a treat for us to have this first sighting of this species. (They are not particularly rare - we just hadn't been looking in the right place and time.)

Near Snowflake, Arizona

Approaching twilight at Beulah Street Wharf.

At Kirribillli, Sydney.

 

The grooviest, smoothest, wharf in Sydney!!

This barn sitting in a wheat field reminds me of a ship at sea. A huge wave of earth approaching.

In Scott County Missouri.

 

Hallstätter See Austria

Coastal reflections, a sea swell filled with ripples, sunlight and a calm pastel sea allows you to enjoy a relaxing seascape and a smooth passage.

Extra long exposure capturing the moments there as the day was ending in Middle River.

This storm was preceded by spectacular altocumulus asperitas clouds. Some of the smooth structures are still visible in this photo as well.

 

The thunderstorm was a joy to behold and photograph.

An amazing night at New Brighton earlier in the year. I usually leave a lot before it gets this dark but I got chatting to a local and stuck around. Apologise for yet another lighthouse shot but we had such a great night.

The graceful curves of Chicago’s Lake Point Tower rise into the overcast sky over Lake Michigan.

Something Different, Its all fun / Never Box Yourself In

The smooth helmeted iguana is named for the prominent casque, or crest on the back of its head and neck which has the appearance of a helmet.

AT THE POOL

Happiness was a day at a pool

in the grass ringed round

with trees up to the sky

 

here I was god’s and my

grandpa’s lad – both died,

happiness is dangerous

 

in the evening the pool has lain down

so mirror-smooth that sky, trees and grass

repeat themselves below the ground

 

fear and longing both ask me

to come back

Happy New Year everyone. Perhaps you can tell from this post that I'm a little tired of the dreary, colorless winter we are having so far. 😢

Smooth blue aster (Symphyotrichum Laeve). I captured these at the start of the Red Rock Canyon in Waterton Lakes NP, known for its wide variety of wildflowers.

So they came into the outway

It was Sunday, what a black day

Mouth to mouth

Resuscitation

Sounding heartbeats, intimidation

I really love this theme. HSoS!!

Chatfield State Park, Colorado

One of my floribunda roses for Spring, 2026.

 

This one is called 'Slim Dusty' which is quite a silly name for such a lovely rose. Slim Dusty was one of Australia's most boring musicians. In fact, he was the MOST boring. I hated all his music and turned off the radio if any of this 'songs' were played. Annoyingly someone has named a rose after this terrible singer.

Hey I am a little late to the game,, but I'm now on Instagram.

Long exposure of Sunset over the Hebrides taken from mainland Scotland.

After a long day working ... noticed that after two days of 50 MPH and then 30 MPH winds and sunny days, that clouds rolled in as the day was nearing an end and the winds died down to nothing.

 

Checked the radar and the passing front left behind a band of clouds over the Baltimore region ... and it was slowly dissipating.

 

I called my Dad about 40 minutes before sunset and asked if the river was smoothed out. He said it was nearly a mirror.

 

So I grabbed the camera gear and made a quick trip down to Middle River to see if Election Night would have some fireworks.

 

The conditions were great with the two days of strong winds out of the northwest resulted in a real low tide, so was able to get under some of the piers.

 

Here just as the sun set, the colors were golden and just beginning. The fireworks followed for about 20 minutes or more, so I ended up taking 75 captures from all kinds of perspectives given the reflections, clouds and low tide conditions.
