Orange Tip Butterfly. Rushey Common.
Having finally given up on days of chasing them up and down the rides, this chap settles beside me and patiently waits for me to rummage the camera out of the rucksack.
Think there might be a moral there somewhere.
My first Orange tip capture this year...

I'm really enjoying what I call my seasonal colour photography this year. These are the pink opium poppies, a stunning field in the heart of the Dorset countryside.
Its a sunrise spot but they are so brutally early!
We'll see.
By the way does anyone have any tips of seeing through the viewfinder in glary conditions? It makes focusing really awkward.

Los Mallos de Riglos son unas formaciones geológicas de tipo mallo situadas en la localidad de Riglos, en la provincia de Huesca (España), unos 45 km al noroeste de Huesca capital, en las sierras del Prepirineo oscense. Alcanzan los 275 metros de altura máxima (espolón norte del Pisón) y se caracterizan por sus grandes paredes verticales o incluso desplomadas, muy apreciadas para la práctica de la escalada.
Los Mallos de Riglos son consecuencia de la elevación de los Pirineos durante la orogenia alpina y están formados principalmente de conglomerados del Mioceno, sedimentos con cantos rodados de tamaño significativo cementados por grava y arena.
Al crearse la cordillera pirenaica, la erosión provocó que gran cantidad de material fuera arrastrado hacia el sur por cauces que vertían sus aguas a la antigua depresión del Ebro, depositándose y sedimentándose en enormes conos de deyección. Estos depósitos aluviales fueron elevados por plegamientos de las capas inferiores y posteriormente erosionados, dando lugar a estas impresionantes paredes. La meteorización, sobre todo la de tipo fluvial, abrió profundas barranqueras ensanchándose las fisuras y formándose las características chimeneas. Los estrechamientos y techos que aparecen en ellas son debidos a que la roca más dura ha persisitido a pesar de la erosión de las aguas fluviales.

A job as a labourer on the Wulong Mine spoil tip is not a happy one in western eyes, but these workers are not only bemused at visitors but friendly beyond belief, apparently quite used to the many photographers that now appear from all corners of the globe to visit this most inhospitable of places. Fuxin city in Liaoning Province unfolds below as Fuxin Mining Railway 'SY' class 2-8-2 No.1195 waits for its spoil train to be dealt with in a 21st century manner, more traditional tools still being relied upon to add those final finishing touches to the mountain of waste material created over decades of deep and opencast mining. A traditional 'tuc-tuc' vehicle has found its way to the top of the tip to transport a labourer home, such vehicles being quite rare now in the Fuxin area, being replaced widespread by electric-powered vehicles, but still having the added luxury of coal-fired stoves for keeping passengers warm!. This scene, quite incredible for 2016, can surely not last for much longer in the ever-evolving China of the 21st century.

My first butterfly photo of the year. Early in the morning a brimstone flew through my garden but this butterfly settled on the back of one of my solar sheep in early afternoon.
Tip
Sometimes natural light is more than enough.
So always also shoot some images with the available light it might be that you don't need the strobes ;)

This dramatic headland is situated in the northern-most tip of BORNEO, the third largest island in the world, after Greenland and New Guinea. It is located in the Kudat Peninsula, about three and a half hours (or 215 kilometres) drive from Kota Kinabalu City.
Simpang Mengayau means 'lingering junction' as it is here that the South China Sea lingers and meets the Sulu Seas flowing from the east ... Enjoy the stunning view. The sunsets and full moons are just beautiful ... The Pulau Kalampunian lighthouse is a reminder of treacherous coastline and past shipwrecks. On the left is the beautiful beach of Pantai Kalampunian.
It's a lovely easy stroll to the flagpole, the Globe and the rocky outcrop that forms the "Tip of Borneo".

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on Old Possum’s Book Of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot. “Prologue – Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats” additional material written by Trevor Nunn and Richard Stilgoe; ”Memory” additional material written by Trevor Nunn.
The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year—the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one they tell their stories to Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life. Among the candidates are the aging theatre cat, Gus; the rocker, Rum Tum Tugger; and the once-glamorous Grizabella, now but a faded memory of her former self.
Boasting a score that includes Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats, Mr. Mistoffelees and Memory, this compelling fable takes audiences to a fantastical world that can only exist in the theatre. Cats has been performed worldwide and translated into over 20 languages. The original West End production ran for 21 years and the original Broadway production ran for 18 years
