Photographing Birds
View allAll Photos Tagged advise
I would advise everyone, and not just photographers to get out and enjoy the warm, golden morning light. In early March, at 8:48 AM, the sunny day produced the stunning light in the photo and these trees (I have a soft spot for trees when shooting photos), in their winter nakedness just seemed to really relish all the light and the relative warmth of the sun.
Bring on spring!
Everglades Snail Kites are a highly endangered bird in Florida! They are now referred to as Snail Kites and get their name for the fact that they feed almost exclusively on Apple Snails! They are a victim of poor water management, including water quality, high water levels, extremely low water levels. The water that is of extremely poor quality is because of recycling of farm water!
We were luck enough to see these Snail Kites mating on one of our trips to STA 5 in the wonderful early morning light!! As always thanks for looking and we will see you on Thursday!!

With so many people being advised or even ordered to stay at home, I thought it might be a good idea to share some old shots of the mystical Scottish Highlands. There's nothing like a little bit of daydreaming when the options are limited.

I have several versions of this place: fog, no fog, sunset and no sunset. For some reason I decided to go with sunset and fog..;)
Thanks everyone for helping me with my group problem. I realized I was in too many groups and just wanted to thin it out a little, only because I'm so anal..;) And, it sound like taping my toes together is the best advise after all.
We planted this very small bush in Spring after being advised by the local nursery that it would eventually flower and the bush would grow. It's ideally suited to heat and little water. We've waited all summer for the flowers to appear but the other day they eventually showed themselves. They're tiny. These flowers are about 1-2cm. They're not big show offs like other flowers but they have a very delicate beauty about them which I had to photograph and give them their 15 minutes in the sun! Unfortunately, I have no idea of their name
I would advise you lay off it for a while, say five or ten minutes:-)

Friends ! Believe it or not, my colorful heart shape is NOT a flower ! In botanical language I am called Spathe. I am a shield like leaf ! ! My function is to protect the Spadix (yellow knob at the top) which contains several tiny flowers when in bloom. Lastly, The Spathe (colorful heart shape) can come in many colors such as red, pink, orange, white etc.,
WORD OF CAUTION about Anthurium plant: This plant is toxic when consumed causing severe injury to oral cavity, throat, stomach and intestines etc.,. Families with young children and pets (cats and dogs) are advised to be aware of this serious toxicity if any part of the plant is consumed because of its attractive appearance. The plant's sap may cause severe allergic reaction upon contact.

This is my first attempt at star shots....taken at Spirits Bay, Northland, NZ.
For my friends on here that do star shots regularly, I would love to hear some tips on post processing. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

The Plush-Crested Jay was one of my favorite birds from the trip! We saw them several times on the trip, but were not easy to photograph.They liked shade and stayed in the shadows. This image was taken while using a flash. Thanks for looking and I hope everyone has a great weekend! Thanks for all of the comments and favorites!! I also want to thank everyone for following me on Flickr, I have had over 4 million views!
Judy Lynn and Gary Malloch put together a great trip!

You are advised to walk your bike through the tunnels. However, if you have a very good light and are not disconcerted by strange environments you can ride through. The tunnel is very dark, you literally cannot see your hand in front of your face, and water drips from the ceiling and runs down the walls. There are ditches on both sides to carry water out of the tunnel and they are a must to avoid! It's difficult to talk because of the echoes. It's a Rush!

After a short visit with relatives in western Idaho, I crossed the state line into remote eastern Oregon and headed into the Owyhee Mountains. My intent was to drive 15 miles deep into the wilderness along a rough dirt-and-gravel road -- purportedly narrow in spots, rutted and treacherous, with high-clearance 4WD strongly advised, especially after rains. Having made that journey without incident, I emerged from the steep canyon in the background of this shot and rolled into Succor Creek State Natural Area's small campground, tucked down in the creek bottom among the trees, which I'd hoped would be vacant this late in the season. But a few other folks had already claimed some spots. I was reticent to camp with other people around (preferring solitude over strangers), so I kept going.
A short distance beyond, I pulled over on the rim and took this shot looking back: the winding gravel track snaking through dry grasslands, flanked by dark volcanic cliffs, with the campground nestled in that distant slash of green trees -- and if you zoom in far enough, at least one camping vehicle visible among them. After capturing this view, I continued south on the dirt-and-gravel trail and eventually found myself camped literally in the middle of nowhere, which is exactly what I'd been looking for.

Ruigoord.
Former churchbuilding, nowadays used as a room for exhibitions and cultural activities..
Ruigoord (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈrœyxoːrt]) is a village in the Houtrakpolder in the Dutch province of North Holland, situated within the municipality of Amsterdam. Until the 1880s, it was an island in the IJ bay, which turned into a polder. The village is nowadays partially closed in by the Port of Amsterdam, and lies about 8 km east of Haarlem.[1]
In the 1960s the village was evacuated by the municipality of Amsterdam, which intended to extend its harbour, but the plans fell through. In 1973 the village was squatted by a group of artists who planned to make a colony there. As such it exists to this day, but is legalized nowadays. Full moon parties are regularly organised in the formerly Roman Catholic village church and every year there is the Landjuweel (Land Jewel) festival in August.
Since the early 2000s, the village has staged an annual poetry festival over the Whitsun weekend, Vurige tongen (Fiery Tongues). One of the festival's three days is always devoted to international poets. From 2003 on, a yearly Ruigoord Trophy has been awarded to individuals who have selflessly dedicated themselves to maintaining the village as an important cultural stronghold. The first such trophy was presented to Simon Vinkenoog. Three notable non-Dutch trophy holders are the late American poet and photographer Ira Cohen, the Canada-born writer Jordan Zinovich, and the Amsterdam-based American poet and writer Eddie Woods.

New to the world, only a few hours old . Grey seal pup born at Donna Nook, Lincolnshire, England. Would advise anyone who hasn't been to visit.
Just to let you know, the Loon rescue team have advised that a channel opened up in the ice and the last 3 Loons presumably left
8 out of 10 are now hopefully doing well out in clear water.
"Viewer discretion advised"...I took those words to heart and have not watched, or listened to, the six O'clock news or any other news in seven months, until two nights ago. Same miserable crap. I glance away from the newspaper stand at the local coffee shop, not even wanting to catch a glimpse of the days headlines. My iphone and Google only seen to care about the forth stimulus check as I quickly tap past that. I don't care. I really don't care anymore, as I only want to see and hear the good that this world offers. Selfish. Indeed. So I needed to bring out some love and color to offset the hatred and the dismal darkness of the six O'clock news from two nights ago. Peace out.
