Back tracking and trying out the new noise reduction in Lightroom on past photo of our Schnauzer who left us three years ago. He loved sitting this chair where he could also check outdoors through the window when on neighborhood patrol.
I was also trying our bounce flash at this time, exposing the frame for the window and sky, and filling in with bouncing the flash. He was a real trooper as I practiced.
Even with our new 3 year old schnauzer that is a real lover as well, still miss this one. He had a great soul as well.
The last image taken on my business trip to St. Louis shot from the Kiener Plaza Park illustrating the Gateway Arch framing the Old Courthouse. Read the backstory on my website.
Feisty and fast, I'm lucky it's even in the frame. It hung out for a few days in my favorite local park in an area full of a burrow network. So you can imagine the drill - down one hole, popping up suddenly in another.
Taken for the Macro Mondays theme of fill the frame. A gerbera flower - I used extension tubes on my macro lens to get really close in.
For the new Theme: Fill the Frame with Food on Macro Mondays I watched a lots of TV after a while I get bored and I felt like I need something else, I went to the sweets cupboard and searched for something to eat. I found this mircowave popcorn and thoght this would be a fantastic food sort to fill the frame of a picture :-) and It also tasted very good :-)
I wish everyone a happy Macro Monday
The scenery along Lake Superior is some of the best on offer in Canada, the Lake is the world’s biggest in land area at 82,ooo+ square kilometers and third biggest in water volume it is roughly the size of Austria. The Ojibwe the Native people that lived here for millennia named the lake “Gichi-gam” meaning great sea and to most it would have appeared that way, the lake is fed by over 200 rivers and this is one of them called Sand River.
Around 150kms north of Sault Ste. Marie on hwy 17 lies the Pinguisibi river it is the Ojibwa name for the Sand River meaning fine white sand river, it is completely contained in the Lake Superior Provincial Park and offers a great hiking trail with some interesting canoeing if you don’t mind portages. Also located here is the Pinguisibi Trail it is a 6 kilometer hike along the Sand River following the rivers right bank to its source lake or you can just venture as far as I was interested in, the upper falls which you can just see in the distance at the center of the frame.
I took this on Sept 21, 2021 with my D850 and Tamron 24-70 f2.8 G2 Lens at 24mm, 1/50s, f11 ISO 64 processed in LR, PS +Topaz ,and DXO

Taken on the same trip as my previous post. This is the Titanic Museum in Belfast, which is lit up vividly at Christmas.
I like the wide angle distortion on the sign in the bottom corners here. I couldn't move further back without getting a strong street light in the frame and this was the widest this lens goes. It was a struggle to fit everything in so I angled the frame, which I think fits with the shot ok.
Have a great weekend!
A juvenile Northern Pygmy Owl chatters on this branch and gives me one look back opportunity. I wasn't sure if I got the frame but was happy when I looked over my files that day.
"My work is a self-portrait of my mind,
a prism of my convictions."
~ Fernando Botero ~
A year ago, almost to the day, I had also posted a similar photo of this beautiful wood-carving from my step-father's collection. The moment passed so quickly as the sun shone on the prism for a very short time.
So the only *manipulation* of this capture was done with the frame! Happy Sliders Sunday, everyone.

I take pictures because I like it, not because I am good at it.

Although he appeared to be very strong, this fellow seemed like a beginner rock climber. He reached this height and stopped, clinging to the fingerholds. He kept calling down to someone (about an additional 50 feet out of the frame) for instructions on how to proceed. We watched for 20 minutes and he did not proceed further during that time. He was about halfway to the summit.
Evidently rock climbing is permitted in this area because there was a climber on each rock face near the parking area. Some were experienced; some seemed like they were stuck, like the guy in the picture.
Taken on our "sunny" day at the Garden of the Gods, Colorado Springs, Colorado. ...?
These goose were on the wings and it was hard to get them in the frame but some of the photo s I had the luck that this scucceded.
No crob is made.

This is the old road to the trailhead parking area for Black Slate Falls and Quartzite Falls near L'Anse, Michigan. Both waterfalls are short hikes, one upstream and one downstream. Today, just to the right of the frame, a bridge has replaced driving through the Slate River.
I went out for a drive in the rain today to see if there was any snowy action... this snowy owl surprised me at first coming out from behind the break-water rocks at the wharf... he flew out onto the bay and caught something in his talons... then flew off away from me to scare away another snowy coming toward him. Then he landed on the navigation light close to where I was. I waited for about another half hour till he decided to fly off and I got this shot. They are so fast and I was in my car as to not get soaked ... I did manage to get him all in the frame ... lol
It's just after dawn at Grafton and an assortment of local and yard crews are working feverishly to move inbounds into the yard and get outbounds over the Mountain Sub. In the center of the frame, the DPU of a loaded coal train for Cross, SC shoves east, having just arrived off the Fairmont Subdivision. To their right is one of about a dozen road units occupying the tracks near the engine terminal. Not to be missed is the Appalachian & Ohio power on the left, awaiting its call in a few more hours. The B&O's Willard Hotel forms the backdrop in the back left of the frame.
Not sure what I was thinking when I framed this shot, not to happy with the framing.
I think if I had moved back approx 3 to 4 feet would have had a better foreground.
Have a wonderful day and thanks for comments and feedback.

Happy Saturday everyone! Thank you so much for all your views, comments, favorites and most importantly your friendship! It really means a lot to me :) Hope everyone has an awesome weekend. Will catch up later, now it is almost 7 o'clock and it's time for me to crawl into the streets. Later!!! :)
Can you barely discern the mortals strolling by the beach? Yes, they are humans, not ants! Their figures’ tiniest size creates a sense of scale needed to comprehend the mere vastness of the sea and sky captured in the frame.
This is the North Sea that is only a small part of the Atlantic ocean. So, this shot is nothing but a glimpse at the enormous vastness of the latter. The water-edge pictorially defines the ocean as finite.

Macro Mondays - Spiral
I created a spiral of various screws standing on their heads on a small oak block. I had a red T-shirt in the background, so the screws would pick up a bit of red. I chose to use only the ambient light coming through the windows to the left of the frame, to minimize the flaring on the shiny metal surfaces. HMM
The full moon is just above and just outside the frame here and shining down its glorious light onto Lake Michigan's surface. 9:06 pm and already dark, I handheld this shot at 1/2 of a second, leaning against a tree trunk for some support.
It was a warm and summery Friday evening, so many people decided to walk the North Pier all the way out to the lighthouse, the moon lighting their pathway. If you look closely you can also see two people fishing.
Four fishing boats and their lights can be seen way out on the horizon. Sometimes they stay out all night!
The more I feel I progress in photographic pursuits, the more I am interested in creating setting images for the birds and wildlife I portray so instead of just “filling the frame” with the bird image per se I like to set a living scene. Hope you all like it.
#50 - 100 x challenge - Lensbaby
These pretty and unusual flowers were in my flower delivery a couple of weeks ago and are only just showing signs of wilting. I wanted to get a photo before they finish completely. They are called ornithogalum (thank goodness they are prettier than their name!)
The lace is a scarf I bought in Bruges a few years ago, the charms on the frame are part of the scarf. I always like to bring something home to remember my travels...when I used to travel!
Lensbaby Velvet 56...I know the Velvet isn't really made for flat lay style but I still like the glow it gives.
Halfway through my 100 x challenge.
A back lit geode that I acquired at Luray Caverns several years ago while in Virginia. HMM everyone! Stay healthy and safe!
Good excuse to get super close in then you need to fill the frame! This is from the centre of a Gerbera flower that seems to have mistaken being indoors for spring!
Took loads of shots of it from the abstract to the super sharp, this sits somewhere between I think. Estimated 5mm section of the flower.
