January 2022, a feeling of optimism as the worst of the pandemic was receding.....what could go wrong ????
J aime beaucoup cette chanson de
** Tina Arena **

J'ai tant caché mes différences
Sous des airs ou des faux semblants
J'ai cru que d'autres pas de danses
Me cacheraient aux yeux des gens
Je n'ai jamais suivi vos routes
J'ai voulu tracer mon chemin
Pour aller plus haut, aller plus haut
Ou l'on oublie ses souvenirs
Aller plus haut, aller plus haut
Se rapprocher de l'avenir
J'ai perdu tant de fois la trace
Des rêves pour lesquels je vivais
Je n'ai pas su te dire je t'aime
Seulement te garder
Il faut aussi dire ses doutes
Et les poser dans d'autres mains
Pour aller plus haut, aller plus haut
Et dessiner des souvenirs
Aller plus haut, aller plus haut
Et croire encore à l'avenir
Pour aller plus haut, aller plus haut
Et dessiner des souvenirs
Aller plus haut, aller plus haut
Et croire encore à l'avenir
Aller plus haut, aller plus haut
Se rapprocher de l'avenir.
As I hid my differences
Air or under false pretenses
I thought that others do not dance
Me hiding in the eyes of people
I have never followed your route
I wanted to trace my way
To go higher, go higher
Or we forget memories
Jump higher, go higher
Move towards the future
I lost both times the trace
Dreams where I lived
I have not been able to tell you I love you
Only you keep
It must also be doubts
And ask them in other hands
To go higher, go higher
And draw memories
Jump higher, go higher
And believe in the future
To go higher, go higher
And draw memories
Jump higher, go higher
And believe in the future
Jump higher, go higher
Move towards the future.

Macaranga tanarius
Macaranga tanarius is a plant found in South East Asia, Papua New Guinea and eastern Australia. It's commonly seen as a pioneer species in disturbed rainforest areas. Easily recognised for the round veiny leaves. In Australia it naturally occurs from the Richmond River, New South Wales to Cooktown in tropical Queensland. (Source:

after what turned out to be a failed sunset on the slopes of yewbarrow in the lake district, i walked back down somewhat deflated. not wanting to come away empty handed i jumped in the beck beneat and stumbled across this tree with some funghi growing. the detail in the tree is what caught my eye and thought it would look great with the right shutter speed to catch the flow of the passing water.
Taken in Columbus Belmont State Park, TN. Really like how the limbs on the tree look against the night sky.
It was a more or less starry night when I decided to take my camera to go out at midnight. When I arrived at the top of the small hill the full moon and the upcoming clouds created an interesting atmosphere which I tried to capture in this picture.
Went for an autumnal wander round Painshill Park a couple of weeks back, my first visit here after wanting to for a few years. I arrived later in the day and that coupled with not knowing my way round as the park is pretty extensive led to a slightly rushed visit photography-wise.
Thoroughly enjoyed a peaceful visit though as it was nice and quiet later in the day and managed to get a few decent shots too. This was one of my favourite views looking out from the Turkish Tent across the central expanse of the park comprising the 5 Arch Bridge, Crystal Grotto and the Gothic Temple.
Definitely planning to revisit next year with more time to explore more of the park as several POI were closed or under renovation on my visit, it's a beautiful place to visit both to shoot and for a wander, especially when the many species of trees' leaves are turning in Autumn : )

I was originally enrolled into the GETTY IMAGES collection as a contributor on April 9th 2012, and when links with FLICKR were terminated in March 2014, I was retained and fortunate enough to be signed up via a second contract, both of which have proved to be successful with sales of my photographs all over the world now handled exclusively by them.
On November 12th 2015 GETTY IMAGES unveiled plans for a new stills upload platform called ESP (Enterprise Submission Platform), to replace the existing 'Moment portal', and on November 13th I was invited to Beta test the new system prior to it being officially rolled out in December. ESP went live on Tuesday December 15th 2015 and has smoothed out the upload process considerably.
These days I take a far more leisurely approach to my photographic exploits, and having moved from professional Nikon equipment to consumer bodies and lenses, I travel light less constraints and more emphasis on the pure capture of the beauty that I see, more akin to my original persuits and goals some five decades previously when starting out. I would like to say a huge and heartfelt 'THANK YOU' to GETTY IMAGES, and the 22.893+ Million visitors to my FLICKR site.

**** This frame was chosen on August 7th 2018 to appear on FLICKR EXPLORE (Highest Ranking: #80. This is my 103rd photograph to be selected, which for me is both amazing and exciting, as I never view my images as worthy compared to some of the awesome photography out there. EXPLORE is Flickr's way of showcasing the most interesting photos within a given point in time -- usually over a 24 hour period.
Flickr receives about 6,000 uploads every minute -- That's about 8.6 million photos a day! From this huge group of images, the Flickr Interestingness algorithm chooses only 500 images to showcase for each 24-hour period. That's only one image in every 17,000!..... so I am really thrilled to have a frame picked and most grateful to every one of the 17.950 Million people who have visited, favourite and commented on this and all of my other photographs here on my FLICKR site. *****

Coming to the end of our Easter trip, we stopped for a walk on the Ridgeway (an area of elevated downland in Wiltshire)
This has a last of winter feel. At least it did at the time ....
