Another very cold grey day, so I am carrying out an experiment to see whether daffodil petals can be coloured using food colouring.
A couple cell phone shots while walking Diesel one morning in the neighborhood...1938 Plymouth ~ Poughkeepsie, NY
An evening in late summer in the woods near Hodge Close and the bracken was alive with colours galore even though there was no sign of sunshine, or light of any sort to speak of. As the tripod had not come with me, this could only mean one thing - a spot of ICM!

This haunting sculpture is in the ancient city of Pompeii. It was created by artist Igor Mitoraj, and is one of 30 of his bronze statues displayed there. The art was planned in such a way that “Gods and mythological heroes will populate the streets and squares of the town that was buried by Mount Vesuvius. They will emerge like dreams from the ruins.” The visit to Pompeii is something I have wanted to do all my life, and was probably the most memorable part of my trip to Italy.
the total of yesterday's snow which was all washed away by rain.
Thanks to the water treatment company driver who happened along at the right time and drove so well.

Driving through the South Downs near Upwaltham, West Sussex, I spotted this lone telegraph pole standing in a wide, golden field beneath a sky full of shifting clouds. The light was changing fast, with dark patches rolling across the hill and bright blue breaking through in places. I pulled over and ran to get the shot before the clouds moved on and the moment was lost.

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland, captured candidly in February 2025.
Colder air is heading my way this weekend but, for the first time in what feels like an entire month, the sun will be shining brightly!
In case you are curious, I have been out taking new street shots since September when I started relying on photos from last year to upload. My old PC has simply been incapable of editing them as it hangs on by a thread.
My 'new' PC was taken away yesterday for a 'priority repair' and a completly fresh reinstall of Windows 11. While I have to keep my fingers crossed for 7-10 days that my old PC will hang on, at least I know that my difficulties with the new one were not down to my incompetence. There really was something wrong with it from the start.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend ahead my Flickr friends. Take care and I hope that you enjoy this shot, one of my favourites from last year.
As the sun was out today for the first time in weeks, thought I would go for a drive about. Ended up at the Southwold /Walberswick footbridge, thought I would do another long exposure of 60 seconds to get the clouds streaking across the sky.

Acers always look good, but especially late Summer into Autumn....and there's no better place to enjoy them than Sizergh Castle
I've always wanted to drive the Natchez Trace, and was finally able to do so. Just north of Jackson, Mississippi this lone bald cypress in the water caught my eye. If you ever get a chance to drive the Trace, it's a two lane road of gorgeousness, actually through a national park, with a 50 mph speed limit. There are miles and miles of destruction, too, where a tornado tore through and left the forest stripped and haunting. And, you might also see the occasional deer. Make sure you have your favorite music available, sit back, and let the beauty feed your soul.
