"Unique among North American raptors for its diet of live fish and ability to dive into water to catch them, Ospreys are common sights soaring over shorelines, patrolling waterways, and standing on their huge stick nests, white heads gleaming. These large, rangy hawks do well around humans and have rebounded in numbers following the ban on the pesticide DDT. Hunting Ospreys are a picture of concentration, diving with feet outstretched and yellow eyes sighting straight along their talons." Cornell Lab of Ornithology Photographed in Florida, USA.

Bird? Check! One thin perch? Check! Amorphous green background? Check!
There they are - the rules to successful bird photography!
Actually, I like it if the background is a bit more complicated. When the subject emerges from a complex lattice of representative habitat, that is when I am really happy. In this case the kingbird wanted to sit out in a cow pasture so this is the result I got, pleasing but not very unique.
10 years ago, Fenniarail was taking its first steps to become a railway operator, and Operail Finland and its successor North Rail Oy was not even a thing yet and VR still had to monopoly on freight traffic. But nowadays, the Finnish railway systems is filled with operators in the freight sector and at Kurkimäki the three giants unite on a unique gathering as Fenniarail's Vectron North Rail Oy's Dr20 meet the speeding class Sr1s of VR.
The albatross at Bempton Cliffs, unique flight pose. The Black-browed Albatross (Thalassarche melanophris) is thought to be the only Albatross in the northern hemisphere and is such a wonderful bird to see.
While I am not a fan of hot weather, Death Valley National Park has to be one of my favorite National Parks in the US. There is so much unique geology there to keep a landscape photographer busy for years. One such place is known as "The Racetrack" that showcase these amazing "moving rocks". Sadly over the years, this location has become more popular, which also means more idiots are making the drive down the 27 mile 4x4 road to get there and causing damage on the track itself. Earlier this year I noticed missing rocks, fake tracks where individuals drug rocks by hand and an unbelievable amount of foot prints (you are not allowed to set foot on the playa when it rains). If you get a chance to visit, I do recommended seeing it atleast once...but do it soon, because I fear the damage is only going to get worse.
Photo Editing Info:
I used a small Lightroom plugin called LRENFUSE to blend three raw files together. In Lightroom I then adjusted contrast, clarity and applied a slight warm glow to the mud play using the local adjustments brush. In the sky, I adjust vibrance, contrast and saturation. I then jumped into Photoshop and used +onOne Software 's Perfect Effects 3 to pull out the texture and detail on both the mud play and the rock separately.
Gorinto are unique, stupa-like structures often seen at temples in Japan. As the name might imply, the gorinto has five differently shaped stones piled on top of each other. They represent the five different elements.
Originally one of the Four Great Temples of Asuka, the ancient capitol of Japan, Daian-ji was moved to its current location in 718 following the court's move to Heijo-kyo. It is one of the Nanto Shichi Daiji (The Seven Great Temples of Nara) and the last stop on the Yamato Jusan Butsu pilgrimage. It was a huge temple complex in its Asuka days, taking up almost five city blocks. According to John Martin's Nara: A Cultural Guide, Daian-ji fell into disrepair after the capitol moved to Kyoto--it suffered severe damage from fire in the 1200's and from an earthquake in 1449. Today, only a few structures remain on a small temple grounds.

Montmartre Cemetery is adorned with numerous statues, each uniquely captivating, like the one adorning the grave of Jean Bauchet.
Once an acrobat, Bauchet rose to prominence as the director and proprietor of the renowned Moulin Rouge cabaret, later overseeing the Casino de Paris and Théâtre du Châtelet.
Prior to his death, Bauchet commissioned the magnificent bronze statue of the Nude Man from the sculptor Richard Bernard.

These cicadas are unique to the Midwest of the US. They are cyclical--- come out for a short period of time, then burrow near tree roots and re-emerge years later.
According to the local MSJ expert on cicadas, this year we are seeing the emergence of "Brood 10" which are 17 year cicadas. They have shown up early, possibly due to the warm winter we had. They were not due to be seen until 2021.

C'est le seul machaon que j'ai vu cette année et un peu abîmé. L'environnement n'était pas terrible non plus..
This is the only Swallowtail butterfly I saw this year and one of its wings was damaged. The environment wasn't great either.
A beautiful, elegant & unique, chandelier at an amazing wedding I attended in Vaughn. Best viewed large =)
My intention for this week's submission was to use this interesting little clock in a unique and unconventional way. Who stores pasta in a clock anyways? ;)

unique unto ourselves
why conform?
be your own bird
listen to your own drummer
choose the road less traveled.
here's looking at you kid
Have a nice day :)
Terror in my heart,
Fear splicing through my skin.
Shadows creeping closer,
Moving further in.
Crawling up ,
Sliding round me.
Shadows in the darkness,
Messing with my head………..
Autumn arrives earlier in England, 1 month before we see it in Milan. The town gets new colours and everything turn to be magic....hills in whole Cambridgeshire look like a palette of unknown impressionist painter...it is an unique experience to be part of !!!
The Carlton, is a family run Independent Cinema housed in a unique Grade II listed building in the heart of Westgate-on-Sea. Originally built in 1910 as the Town Hall.
Getting the full building in shot is always impossible, due to parked vehicles. This time was the clearest I had seen it,

Hotel Copernicus - a historic building presently housing a 29-room hotel with two apartments. Copernicus Hotel is located on Kanonicza, the city’s oldest street. For centuries, this building was a part of the cathedral chapel and hosted the intellectual and financial elite of Krakow. It owes its name to the famous Polish astronomer Nicolas Copernicus, who was one of the guests of the house. He, too, must have admired the precious polychrome paintings and inscriptions dating from 1500 and, in the evening, the flaming sunsets that seem to set the city alight.
Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Zero-D from Venus Optics, full frame manual lens (does not show in EXIF)
As I was out in our backyard setting up to capture a full moon image, I turned around and this view popped! Had fun playing with this capture! The edit I came up with is of our chiminea that we fire up quite often.
Unique model created for a rich man from Milan in 1947-48. The car only has 848km on the clock since new, and always remained in the same family.
Sunrise, light hits Grandfather clock, I usually leave the blinds to protect it's wood. Not this morning. Sunbeams hit brass pendulum and flash as it swings. Seen before, but today instead of my eyes, the flash angle hits a small lamp sitting metres away. This in turn casts a light golden shadow once every second onto the wall. Boring? Just a bit of fun catching it, manual focus, 20th of a second. Click on the Nikon link for exif info.
(There was no football on TV this morning...ho hum.)
