I had the absolute pleasure today to spend the afternoon with my friend David who is definitely my birding mentor. The times I spent a few years back when he used to spend more time at Woodlands Historic Park, built my love for birding and I have learnt a great deal from him. Today we went for a lovely walk through his new turf along the Werribee River, and he didn't disappoint me finding the beautiful Eastern Osprey he calls Eloise. She is beautiful to say the least.

We had a stunning day here in Cape Town yesterday... warm, no wind, and loads of interesting high-level clouds... with plenty of promise for a great sunset!
So Jenny and I took a drive out to Kogelbaai for a romantic walk along the beach. Hand in hand we strolled along the mostly deserted beach... chatting about all the latest stuff happening in our lives... all the while looking out for potential compositions for sunset. When I spotted this large but shallow dune-pool... with this rock in the middle of it... I just knew that I'd found my comp.
This shot was captured mere seconds before sunset... my absolute favourite time of the day.

An early spot of the year contender for me! This absolute rarity has been sat rotting away in inner east London for about 20 years now, and is full to the brim of junk. Its current owner bought it on New Year's day 2005, and judging by the lack of MOT history it didn't see much use with them!
It should come as no surprise that just 1 Toledo GLX is still on the road, and just 2 from 1992 are SORN.
L’astuzia di Penelope è nota. Attese per vent’anni il ritorno del marito, Ulisse, evitando di scegliere uno tra i proci grazie allo stratagemma della tela: avendo promesso che avrebbe scelto il futuro marito dopo aver portato a termine il sudario per Laerte, padre di Ulisse… la notte disfaceva ciò che tesseva durante il giorno.
Una dimensione naturale della nostra esistenza ci porta a considerare l’attesa come un fatto negativo. Il più delle volte è vero… ma è anche nel "tendere verso" che immaginiamo il futuro. Nell’attesa possiamo costruire il desiderio, sentirlo crescere in noi, coltivarlo, renderlo più conscio o persino più folle… dal presente possiamo distendere le fibre della nostra tela fino a raggiungere la passione… e poi sfilare tutto prima che si spezzi e ricominciare.
No, certo, sono d’accordo… non si può attendere in eterno. La passione, quella vera, è un cannibale che ti consuma assai rapidamente e un tormento perpetuo non è adatto a delle creature con la data di scadenza…
Eppure esercitare l’arte dell’attesa, la pazienza, e spingerla fino a scatenare l’immaginario un momento prima che si spezzi la fibra della tela ha il suo miele.
Per inciso, alla fine Penelope la spuntò.

for those who want to see more of these types of pics, i will recommend you to look at "larsvandegoor" .He's the man who inspires me up to the bone. It is almost incredible what he shows us. As if he is living in a fairy tales forest (close to never ever land;-)
The colors, the light and the objects, they will amaze you.
Impossible to work at this level, so don't even think about a look-a-likes. This man is unique !
Thank you Lars, for those beautiful pictures!

URUBICI - SC - BRASIL:
Isso é muito especial, um momento sublíme, a escuridão da noite sendo lentamente substituída pelo vermelho da luz do astro-rei que vem por traz da linha do mar do litoral sul catarinense. Incrivelmente a impressão que se tem é a de que o mundo para por um instante, parece que a natureza silencia para apreciar esse acontecimento. Esse manto de nuvens deslizava calma e quase mudo até a beira do abismo onde se dissipava. A umidade dificultou a captura dessa imagem pois embaçava a lente obrigando-me a "seca-la" entre uma foto e outra. Essa é a junção de 3 fotos para formar uma pana.

This is very special, a sublime moment, the darkness slowly being replaced by the red light of the sun coming behind of the Santa Catarina south littoral line. Incredibly the impression one gets is that the world stops for a moment, it seems that nature silence to enjoy this event. This cloud cover slid calm and almost silent to the edge of abyss where dissipated. The humidity made it difficult to capture that image because the lens fogged forcing me to "dry" it between a picture and another. This is the junction of 3 pictures to form a headline.
Every year the amazing hard working folks of the Ukulele hooley festival bring together absolute legends from the ukulele world. This year I got to see the likes of Andy Eastwood, Casey McGill, Francesco Albertazzi, Gus & Fin, The Mourning Glories, The Jive Aces, The Ukulele Uff & Lonesome Dave Trio, James Clem and Minnie and the Illywhackers
Here are beautifully talented The Mourning Glories at the Ukulele hooley festival
Can't wait for next year! . .. .... ...
2020 sure isn’t letting up. California is now battling roughly 367 known fires. Today, I decided to drive down the coast and document what I could of the #CZUAugustLightningComplex fire. This fire is just north of Santa Cruz, is burning over 25,000 acres and growing with 0% containment so far. It was a day I won’t forgot.
On the lucky and semi-exciting side of being a photographer, I got to document my buddy and pilot friend @Jakelounsbury who use to fly me around SF and now fights fires, along with his co pilot @rlenzer.
On the not so lucky and not exciting side of things, knowing a friend probably lost his home in this very fire. That part was unsettling to say the least.
I was standing here in absolute awe, with a group of locals who were just evacuated, watching their land and homes burn away in the distance. Everyone was in decent spirits, but you could tell deep down how everyone was really feeling. Something I could not relate to, but I could definitely see it in them.
I started talking with a nice gentleman named Andy, who was a local Arborist and lived in the now burned valley for the past 12 years. He mentioned and pointed at his three trucks filled with everything he could grab. We sort of knew this fire was going to come at us eventually. So before I decided to leave the area and get out of everyone’s way, I offered to help him shuttle his trucks, as he seemed to be alone. One by one a few miles down the road we went so that he could at least get them parked further from this fire zone. I know I can’t stop the fire and save the day, but I also felt I didn’t just want to stand there and be that come and go tourist. I love this area and have explored this coast for the past 10 years as a photographer. Never have I seen it like this. I am praying for these fires to let up and of course 2020 to end.
