While waiting for my son’s kayak to run the rapids past me on the Chilliwack River, British Columbia, Canada, this large Spring salmon jumped out of the water with a hook in its mouth. The angler, with his family nearby, caught their limit that morning. Not long after this photo the kayak appeared.
An old shot recently re-edited, taken from my trip to New Zealand in 2009, at Lake Tekapo. Spring is now upon us in the Northern hemisphere and the sunshine is getting warmer. Despite there always being opportunities for landscape photographers the year round (and in any weather), there is a sense of coming out of hibernation that inspires us to start taking more trips out this time of year. I’m certainly looking forward to capturing the bright splashes of colour and textured skies that Spring is famous for, and feel energised by the extra hours of daylight that can lift one out of the doldrums of Winter. Time to get some fresh air and go for a walk in the country! Spring is coming!
Join me on:
We had a beautiful Spring day yesterday! Today not so much - having sever thunderstorms and tornado warnings ;-( that is the part I hate this time a year!!
Happy bokeh Wednesday!!
Just got back after being away at work for the last couple of weeks, and I'm thrilled see that spring has sprung and that the sun is finally shining bright again! Will do my best to catch up with all you Flickr-friends as soon as possible!
Adding to the contrasts in spring are the usually still snow covered mountains in the distance, my cherished 80-200mm AI-S just loves to reach out to them. Hard not to like it..

As Winter approaches my garden has very few flowers so I am posting a shot taken last Spring!
Feliz Quinta Flower!

Spring Pixie is done!! I am so excited!!!! (This pic just doesn't do it justice!!!)
After I'd made the final stitches, it seemed like something was missing. The starkness of the white fabric made these little guys look like ghosts, so I took my colored pencils and very lightly filled in the blank spots. It's kinda hard to tell in the pic, but in person the result is pretty cool. I'm very pleased. :)
those beautiful spring, 60-70 degree days never last long enough for me. in no time at all i will be complaining about the heat.
It snowed on the first day of spring in Maryland, but the temperature wasn't cold enough and the snow turned into rain.
Something a bit different today. These are tremendous fun to do and don't require all the props that most of my shots contain. A nice bit of driftwood, something to act as a background (this is a tile 'sample' bought from a large tile retailer). A variety of spring flowers, from the garden — although wildflowers would have worked just as well. Whilst this is shot with a DSLR, it could just as easily been taken with a phone camera as they're great for top down pics. There's quite a lot of work done in post processing, mainly combining dark and light exposures to make everything more moody than a single shot would achieve.
Hey Everyone - Sorry for my absence from Flickr. I've been spending all of my time on Instagram. To be honest, I haven't even used my Canon for photos much. I've got my trusty iphone with me at all times. It's just easier to carry and I can instantly edit with photo apps. I'll try to come around more often now that spring is almost here. I'm so anxious to get out for some photos. Thanks for following me and I hope everyone is doing well. :)
I've got myself a case of spring fever. The warm weather yesterday was simply irresistible.

Thanks for taking the time to drop by....have a fantastic weekend! 😊
Walking around in the nice weather today I came upon a large field of hepaticas on a wooded hill. Nature is really springing into life here in Sweden.... finally
The sunset light was so beautiful in my back yard last night that I grabbed my 50mm f/1.4 and put it on the camera and headed out to capture these newly-bloomed beauties back-lit and drenched in Spring light.
Find this and many more flower photos in my Flower Gallery.
Hawthorn is for me the sentinel of spring. White and elegant, announces the arrival of the warm season
Keeping a horse's head in the right position helps the animal finding her balance, a necessity when springing.
Another shot from the “Spring Angel” series. Different angle this time. I decided to upload this one as well, since originally I could not choose which one I preferred.
I can't WAIT for spring tho....🌸

Croci in our garden is a true signal of Spring for us in Ottawa.
The bokeh comes courtesy of a neighbour's Christmas lights still hanging in a tree.
During the spring and early summer, it's not just the milk van that will wake you early - it's dawn chorus time again. From March to July, those feathered alarm clocks are at it again, as they defend their territories and sing to attract a mate.
Our songbirds time their breeding season to the warmest part of the year, when there is plenty of food and lots of daylight in which to find it. As winter turns to spring, the lengthening daylight switches male songbirds into breeding mode
