Muchas gracias por vuestras visitas, favoritos y comentarios /
Thank you very much for your visits, faves and coments.
This beaver picked a prime piece of land for the view alone. It was quite active even with my intrusion, as was building winter food supply behind the lodge. This is now totally ice, a week later. Thanks for looking and may your weekend be bright!
The Statue of Liberty is always a dramatic and imposing view on the New York City skyline. I used a slight monochrome and B/W blend to highlight her features.
Sand Forest is an increasingly rare habitat found in Kwazulu Natal (South Africa) and southern Mozambique. Many interesting mammals and birds inhabit these beautiful forests.`
This male Narina Trogon was - as usual - sitting with its back to us and then it moved to this spot for just a brief moment.

I love a rainy night.
I love a rainy night.
I love to hear the thunder,
Watch the lightnin' when it lights up the skies.
You know it makes me feel good.
I love a rainy night,
It's such a beautiful sight.
I love to feel the rain on my face,
Taste the rain on my lips,
In the moonlight shadow.
Showers wash all of my cares away.
I wake up to a sunny day...

After a stroll through Les Jardines Tuileries, this is the view that greeted us as we crossed the River Seine. We didn't make it all the way to La Tour Eiffel this time but this view was good enough for me!

This picture and song are dedicated to a very special person in my life, whose life was forever changed at age three from cancer. Love you Jill. 💙
Photographed at Family Farm
To walk a delicate path,
along a transient moment in time,
realization that but a soft breath,
delivers the unfortunate fateful blow,
igniting the autumn fire within,
sealing ones fate along that ever delicate path.
Following the dew drops along this beautiful Autumn morning rose leaf. The third photo from the "Autumn Inspirations I" series.
Thanks for the favs and kind compliments!
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,
Nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow’st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this,
and this gives life to thee.
I am not a bird photographer, and never will be. I don't have the patience to stand around and wait. That said, I was out in my back yard in the snow with my camera. I had my macro lens on my camera, shooting close up tulips in the snow, etc. and suddenly saw this woodpecker in a tree. What could I do with a macro lens? Well, apparently, quite a bit, seeing as he stayed still, except for all the pecking he did. I took a couple of shots, then moved closer....and so on. I noticed he'd pecked holes all the way around the tree and started a new row, and the sap was running out. No wonder he's called a redbreasted sapsucker. I had to crop the image quite a bit to get him large enough.
No, this is not going to make me want to photograph birds :) Just if they come to me.
