I went out shooting this afternoon and after taking over 60 shots and heading home I noticed my camera was set to "Macro" ..... sigh. I thought they didnt look as sharp as usual on the LCD .... dumb huh?
Southern Country Park - St Michaels Mead - Bishops Stortford - Corona Virus (Cov-Aid19) daily exercise during the UK`s lockdown.
Southern Ireland near Killarney. A statue of the Virgin Mary is set amongst the foliage. Such holy symbols are a common sight there.
Thursday morning is up there with the best few hours of photography I’ve had in a long time. It started at Rydal Water photographing the boathouse from a viewpoint I’d not been to before. The light wasn’t great, but the mist lingering on the mirror like water made up for it.
Quite a few images to follow, taken this same morning but in VERY different conditions…..
Enjoyed watching this Gannet. He gave us a show of about 5 minutes, stretching, flapping his wings then turned around as if to say... well... how did I do?

Shot from the car in Howden. I got out then went into the Minster Church just to the right of this shot. The building on the corner is Churchside Antiques Shop. I dont know what next door is, but loud music boomed out spoiling a peaceful Sunday afternoon.
This was a quicky, unthinking shot. I didnt expect to like it as much as I do :o)
Many thanks for all of your support and kindness, it is apreciated.

The boat house in Birkenhead Park, UK. The world's first publicly funded civic park. Designed by Joseph Paxton and opened in 1847.
I got out of the car when I got home and I had my camera with me (of course!) Spotted this tiny 3mm fly on my headlight.

As we were making rounds upon London, Heathrow had just closed and we had to find another destination for a landing.
I love the colour and tones of this image. It took me a while to settle on the right composition, but I really like the way this has turned out.
From my UK roadtrip of 2019, photo taken with smartphone.
Thanks for all the faves and comments, even for just taking the time to view my photo's, much appreciated.
If I give faves, then most of the time they are not given in a "blink of an eye", I like to look at details to see how much they enriched a photo and how they draw my attention, to everyone "keep up the great/nice/good-looking/wonderful work of photography".
