Red-bellied woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus) defends its territory from a male Northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) at the back yard feeder. If you haven't heard this pecker vocalize, it is worth the rabbit hole visit.

Our bottom rocker marks our territory. You put a 1%er patch on and the same bottom rocker you better expect blood. We landed here first, you chose to impose on our teritory. We'll fight you with every bullet, bomb, tooth, and bat we have. You think we're afraid of you? We'll walk into your own clubhouse and open fire at everything we see. Don't walk on our territory and we won't take your cut from your corpse.
Hi Buddies! In this post, I adventured myself in another unknown territory (at least for me): night photography.
After reading some Internet articles about the subject, I decided to try; I believe the result speaks by itself. The process I followed to take this shot is the following:
First of all, I have to say that you should work with low lighting and if possible memorize the position of the camera buttons. This will help your eyes to be use to the darkness and after some time you will be able to see the Milky Way. This is important in order to point the camera in the desired direction. I chose the position of the camera (and tripod) very close to a pool. The objective was to capture the sky and its reflection.
I used a torch to illuminate partially the tree and focus the camera manually (the autofocus will not work and you should disconnect it). After that, you should not move either the camera or the focus position.
In night photography you should choose a shutter speed of 30 sec or less if you want star points rather than small trails. I also fixed the aperture to the max allowed in my lens (i.e. f/2.8). With those settings, I started a trial and error series of pictures starting with low ISO values (e.g. 400) and increasing the ISO every picture. I found that ISO 1600 was a good value to get the Milky Way. Obviously, the higher the ISO the more light is captured, however, the shot will be noisier.
In this 30-second exposure I was lucky to capture 2 meteors close to the top of tree. They are very small and probably will not be visible in IG. Since the Perseids start around mid-July, I believe these 2 meteors belong to that shower.

Excerpt from en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tung_Yick_Store.jpg:
Tung Yick Store on Nos. 20 A & 21 Lee Yick Street in Yuen Long Kau Hui (Old Market Yuen Long), a former inn providing accommodation to traveling merchants from other villages. The exact year of its construction is not known, but it is believed that it had existed before 1899. It is Grade I historic buildings in Hong Kong, and probably the oldest hotel in Hong Kong that still exists.

Yes that's me on the back. I can assure you it's easier getting on than getting off. These gentle creatures were introduced by the early settlers and now run wild in the outback. I love 'em.

Its just the way it has to be, that choice view requires the perfect oak :) the other 99% get the darkness below. This is one of my favorite oak trees in Morgan Territory along the Diablo trail, an excellent choice for a backpack/bikepack trip!
I laid in bed this New Year's morning and thought, "I don't feel like getting up". I couldn't let that be my first thought of the new year. The choices we make define us. I pushed the thought away and instead got out of bed, found a costume and props, and drove in the dark to the desert.
I created an image that I had no idea how to put together. I adopted the old familiar but too-often-lost playfulness that image-making allows us, willing to fail as much as to succeed. I reached for the new year like it was a beacon, not letting myself fall haphazardly into my own life - reaching for it with playful, thoughtful sincerity.
