In mid May I attended a workshop at Valle Verzasca in Switzerland. A weekend for photographing rocks and water.
Expect not much else for the next few days.
We saw many groups of Smooth-billed Ani’s during our trip to the Pantanal. This ended up being a species that we probably didn’t pay as much attention to as I would have liked because there were plenty of them around. I thought these two looked pretty neat on their perch, that beak is pretty crazy looking.

Cedar Waxwing, Bombycilla cedrorum. Lifer for me, during a Texas Master Naturalist Bird Hike. Really too small/distant for a good image, and probably the focus (if any) was elsewhere. Call it “painterly”. If I ever get a good shot, I’ll post that.
😃 Happy Sliders Sunday!
View from Redondo Beach
Description/info: Redondo Beach is coastal city in Los Angeles County, California, United States, located in the South Bay region.
Bit of a foggy start to the day in London this morning. This shot was taken at 6.30 looking towards HMS Belfast, with Tower Bridge in the distance.
Having experimented for a few weeks with a neutral density setting on my phone, to try and make water look smooth, the Thames actually looked very smooth on this very still morning with just a 1/3 second exposure.
Taken using my old vintage Minolta 58mm f/1.4 lens adapted using a Pixco focal reducer. Works out at around 83mm full frame focal length using the focal reducer and at f/1.4.
People often complain you can't get enough bokeh using micro four thirds, I disagree. Under the right conditions you can get plenty :)

Schenider-Kreuznah radionar lenses were used on folder medium format cameras. This one is probably from the fifties.
It has a simple, Cook triplet design and I expected some bubbles. But Radionar refused to bubble its bokeh. Bokeh is smooth and quite nice. Lens is soft even closed a bit.

The hotel we stayed in in Northern Borneo was chosen on account of the abundant wildlife that calls the hotel grounds their home. In all we counted five of these Smooth Coated Otters.
The rough brickwork parts the smooth water flow.

Crotophaga ani (Smooth-billed Ani / Garrapatero)
The Smooth-billed Ani is a widespread resident of scrub and forest clearings from the Caribbean and Costa Rica south to Uruguay and northern Argentina; it also occurs in south Florida, although the population there has declined significantly there in recent years. Smooth-billed Anis live in small flocks and eat a variety of insects, small vertebrates and fruit.
