I'm just a now walking around in the garden laughing. Then I sneak around the small house and look curious through the window. It's dark inside and only a ray of light shines through the small window and the reflections strike me as ectoplasm and I recognize this inviting decorative old ensemble and clock. I fall silent and for a moment it seems as if time has stood still and the room is just waiting to be visited.

Some great lighting can be had at this time of day ... came together nicely here at the end of the pier in this composition.
The one second exposure here turns this tunnel into an actual time tunnel. What we are capturing here is not just light, or the moment, but a slice of time.

Tried something different. It came to my mind and I just had to put it into a picture. The shells are actually fossils, (which I found on a beach in Denmark) and thought they would work out great with this image.
I wish you all a wonderful weekend,

I took a trip to one of Brisbane neighbouring Islands this weekend just gone and rode around on the pushy with my best mate, camera in tow of course. We managed to stumble up on these dead trees, some nice jetties and beautiful beaches! I love little explorations!
A re-visit to these fellas at sunset is a must!

"E il tempo della vita è un bene nei confronti del quale bisogna essere avari. Bisogna conservarlo per le cose che ci piacciono e ci motivano. Questo tempo per se stessi io lo chiamo libertà. E se vuoi essere libero devi essere sobrio nei consumi. L'alternativa è farti schiavizzare dal lavoro per permetterti consumi cospicui, che però ti tolgono il tempo per vivere."

There was a Red Cardinal on one side and a Blue Jay on the other but I had the macro lens on and by the time I changed lens the Cardinal was gone but the Blue Jay decided it was bath time.

Kisaru's six cubs had been tearing around chasing one another and this one decided to take a breather and just watch the others.
Thought we'd have a break from the Cotswolds and come back to my roots. This is Kimmeridge Bay, on the Jurassic Coast of Dorset and it was taken yesterday evening. Not sure who the fisherman was but he was stood in just the right place so thank you whoever you are!
