Pretty sure this is a Thornback Ray tail/spine. The discards always make me sad and I imagine seeing these beautiful creatures swimming in clear waters.

The remains of this Ancient Bristlecone appear to beg the gods for mercy as it submits to the coming storm.

 

Well...that's how I see it. ;) Thanks for having a look!

 

View On Black

This little Swainson's Francolin got the scare of his life.. I had silently crept up to him and he peacefully kept pecking in the ground until he heard the first burst of the shutter.. He jumped a foot high, only to continue fouraging immediately afterwards.. It all went so quick that I hadn't even seen it through the viewfinder. Only later on the camera's display I saw this 'hands up'-surrender.

 

Yesterday I returned home after having been away for 5 weeks.

The whole trip has been totally unbelievable. Never in my dreams I could have foreseen that I, one day, would spend 5 weeks in a row on the beautiful African continent. I've spent one week in Botswana in the fantastic Mashatu Game Reserve and 4 weeks in Mala Mala in South Africa. My head is still brimming with all the fantastic things I've seen and experienced. (And so is my hard disk.. :-)) It will take ages to select and process but I'll get there. You can follow my (slow) progress on my Blog

 

Meanwhile I'll try and catch up with all of your wonderful shots I've missed while I was away.

A little scene from my daughters ever-diminishing Gingerbread house...

“To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.”

Lao Tzu

"I could spend my life in this sweet surrender

I could stay lost in this moment forever..."

 

Still going through the archives, though I might try and head out tomorow afternoon. I might go insane if I don't get out with the camera soon... :P

the view just outside our cabin (Port O'Pines) I logged as much time on the end of that dock as I could, but not nearly enough. From here I watched mist lift in the morning, and at night, I listened to loons and the lunatic laughter of persons unseen, persons who must have been from Alabama or somewhere deeply southern and mourned under the moon when my thoughts of my mother surfaced. Sweet surrender.

Day 291 (give or take a few days)

 

I was reading The Tale of Despereaux to my sisters, and there was a passage where darkness was described very vividly. We took a quick reading break to take this photo, with Yasmin's help, of course.

 

I can't believe I am still awake. The past two nights I haven't slept well at all, and the past two days I have had to get up early to bus to hospitals. Yesterday it was for an appointment at the adult hospital and today it was my last round of bone treatment at the children's hospital. I had to say goodbye to all my favourite nurses AND the clown, Molly Penny. :'( It wasn't all sad though, as I got to watch the CEO of the hospital accept his ice bucket challenge nomination!

The remains of the Surrender lead smelt mill in Arkengarthdale. looking through one of the front windows towards the flue at the back.

I was experimenting with a gizmo that triggers the shutter when an object passes through a photogate. After countless fails at getting it to fire quickly enough to capture the paper ball in flight, I decided the locked and loaded shot would be kinda cool. Hope you like it!
