A pair of Semipalmated Sandpiper's squabble over who has control over the shoreline. Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge, Galloway Township, New Jersey.
Those who know me personally will know I have a little van and like to travel around the UK for my photography. I recently spent some time in Brecon and West Wales for just under two weeks. And I really loved spending time focusing on photography again. Just getting through some of the pictures now and so I have lots of wildlife and landscapes stories to come. :)
This Image is from the first night where I walked up Pen Y Fan. I set off at 1am and only reached the peak at 6am as I was too distracted taking pictures of the stars on the way up! But I was just in time for a beautiful sunrise. :) It was seriously an amazing walk in the night and would highly recommend to anyone.
Having some problems with photoshop at the moment and it seems to not work or crash when I'm using it anyone else having problems?
Last summer we took a roadie to New Mexico for a Celebration of Life in remembrance of my mom who passed away in July of 2020.
On the way back to SoCal we made a whirlwind through three National Parks; Mesa Verde, Bryce Canyon, and Arches.
We were on a pretty tight schedule so we didn't have the luxury of spending a great deal of time at any of them.
As luck would have it, it was later in the day and we didn't have to wait in the horrific lines that plagued Arches last summer as millions cooped up during the pandemic flooded to the National Parks in record numbers.
We only made one stop in the park; on The Windows Road where several arches are clustered.
This rainbow with the La Sal Mountains serving as a stunning background was an added bonus.
If you know your Spanish, I think you can probably tell how the range which is the second highest in the state of Utah, got its name.
Had a close encounter of the sandhill kind recently. This was taken in a back yard where two pair had decided to hang out for a while. It is amazing to hear how loud their call is when you are close to them. I got lucky with the focus on this shot and was able to crop in quite a bit. It was interesting to me to note that you can see right through the nostrils. What beautiful birds these guys are.
A question that pops up from time to time. At this moment, it has been triggered whilst reading Pat Barker's "The Silence of the Girls" (a retelling of the Iliad from the perspective of captured women).
Do you remember still who is your life big love.................

Europe, The Netherlands, Zuid Holland, Den Haag, Foto museum, Chris Killip exhibition (uncut)
Christopher David Killip (1946 – 2020) was a Manx documentary photographer who also worked at Harvard University from 1991 to 2017, as a Professor of Visual and Environmental Studies.
He was influenced by HCB (Henry Cartier Bresson) and is known for his dramatic black-and-white images of people and (post-) industrial places, especially of Tyneside during the 80s, the austere Thatcherian era - the dark times of economic recession, mass unemployment, miner strikes and other civil unrest.
The 80s were also the years of new wave music. Some of Killip’s images made me remember the cover of the pivotal ’ Searching for the Young Soul Rebels’ album (Dexy’s Midnight Runners). They also evocated Elvis Costello's (Declan McManus) Oliver Army’s lyrics in which he states that the only future for ‘the boys of the Mersey, the Thames and the Tyne’ lies in joining the (mercenary) army.
I dunno if Killip ever photographed in Northern Ireland, but throughout the visit, I had the nasal/hoarse, kinda snarly voice of Feargal Sharkey of the Undertones playing in my head. Check out The Undertones - When Saturday Comes.
Shot on an enjoyable and informative museum visit with Hendrik van Leeuwen.
This is number 305 of the Museum album.
