BE FISHERS OF MEN
Simon Peter, Thomas (called Didymus), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. "I'm going out to fish," Simon Peter told them, and they said, "We'll go with you." So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.
Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.
He called out to them, "Friends, haven't you any fish?"
"No," they answered.
He said, "Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some." When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.
"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men."

Answer : It is the Early Spider Orchid (Ophrys sphegodes) photographed on the ocean-facing downs of the Isle of Purbeck, Dorset. The buildings in the background are the Anvil Point Lighthouse complex. This orchid is one of the rarest in Britain, only being found along parts of the south coast e.g. Kent and this part of Dorset.
Personally I find the 'spider' hard to see but it is still a superb wild plant!
Pre-autumn colours. The Ash trees are suffering 'Ash die back' which is set to decimate Ash trees in the UK. At present there is no real answer. The North features many Ash trees, especially the Dales, so the future of the landscape is threatened.
The tree top right is suffering from this.
The reason for our recent trip to Reelfoot Lake in Tennessee…the Western Cottonmouth. Reelfoot is pretty famous in our part of the world for three main reasons: Amazing fishing (winter and spring only…it sucks in August), and the largest concentration of Bald eagles and cottonmouths in the Eastern USA.
I have been wanting to go back to Reelfoot to photograph the cottonmouths for many years now. This week my brother Gus and I made the 9-hour roundtrip drive and were blessed with two separate encounters. In this shot, we fired up the trolling motor and cruised alongside this beautiful adult viper.
I guess one's answered prayer can be another’s nightmare.

France. Vosges. Alsace. Bas-Rhin. Forêt Domaniale du Bernstein. Photo prise Lors d'une courte rando en aller-retour, de la Chapelle Saint-Sébastien (près de Dambach-La-Ville) au Château du Bernstein.
Le jeudi 23 janvier est le 1er jour de l'année 2020 où je suis allé randonné. J'ai dû poser un jour de congé en semaine car depuis le début de l'année, les conditions anticycloniques tombent toujours pendant les jours de semaine !
D'après la météo sur Internet, la couche de nuages bas piégée en plaine et en vallée ne devait pas être très épaisse car Dambach qui se trouve vers 200m d'altitude devait bénéficier d'un bon ensoleillement. Mais en même temps je me doutais que c'était louche car Munster qui est située plus haut n'était pas censée voir le soleil de toute la journée ...
J'ai quand même décidé de monter au Château du Bernstein, situé vers 550m d'altitude, en espérant qu'il émergerait de la mer de nuages. Mais il n'en a rien été. Et pour cause : j'ai pu constater plus tard dans la journée que l'altitude supérieure de la couche de nuages se situait vers 800m sur toute l'Alsace centrale. Mais je n'ai aucun regret car mon aller-retour au château s'est déroulé dans un décor givré féérique que j'ai grandement apprécié.
INFOS : Le Château du Bernstein est construit sur un éperon rocheux et a une surface au sol assez étendue en longueur. Le château est entouré de beaux arbres feuillus mais en hiver ils n'empêchent pas trop de faire quelques belles photos du château.

Fun Facts: Grand Teton National Park was created on February 29, 1929 and greatly expanded in 1950 due to the efforts of John D. Rockefeller, who purchased vast tracts of land and then donated over 30,000 acres to the U.S. Government.

Nell'ambito delle mie letture eterogenee e molto dispersive, sto leggendo le belle carte + libro guida di Francesca Matteoni, illustrazioni di Amarilli Soriente, dedicate agli Sciamani, ed. Vivida, 2023.
Oggi la carta estratta è l'Artemisia.
"L'artemisia (artemisia vulgaris) cresce nelle zone incolte e temperate, è un'erbacea perenne dal fusto rossiccio e le foglie che scintillano biancoargentee. Deve il suo nome alla dea greca Artemide, signora degli orsi, dei boschi e dei campi selvaggi. Per alcuni sia Artemide sia il fratello Apollo avevano tratto le loro abilità magico-terapeutiche rispettivamente dall'artemisia e dal melo. Pur essendo considerata una pianta infestante e selvatica, non cresce mai troppo distante dall'abitato umano. Questo, insieme all'uso magico-curativo diffuso in varie parti del mondo, ne testimonia l'antichità. I nostri antenati già conoscevano l'artemisia e la coltivavano per le finalità più varie."
Leggere questo stamattina mi ha scatenato due ricordi. Un ricordo d'infanzia, il mio papà che è nato nei boschi della Carnia, e che aveva comprato un libro per curarsi con le erbe.
L'altro ricordo, un articolo sul Fatto Quotidiano che riguardava la vittoria di una piccola azienda produttrice di una bevanda a base di Cola, contro la multinazionale Coca-Cola.
Avendo io lavorato per un periodo breve in un negozio di commercio-equosolidale, mi ricordo le battaglie delle comunità indigene contro lo sfruttamento dei loro prodotti. Lascio a voi però la ricerca in rete se siete interessati all'argomento.
La biodiversità vegetale è importante quanto la biodiversità animale, are you agree?
As part of my heterogeneous and very dispersive readings, I am reading the beautiful maps + guide book by Francesca Matteoni, illustrations by Amarilli Soriente, dedicated to the Shamans, ed. Vivid, 2023.
Today the paper drawn is Artemisia.
"Mugwort (artemisia vulgaris) grows in uncultivated and temperate areas, it is a perennial herbaceous plant with a reddish stem and leaves that shine silvery-white. It owes its name to the Greek goddess Artemis, lady of bears, woods and wild fields. For some, both Artemis and her brother Apollo had drawn their magical-therapeutic abilities respectively from the mugwort and the apple tree. Although it is considered a weed and wild plant, it never grows too far from human habitation - healing widespread in various parts of the world, testifies to its antiquity. Our ancestors already knew artemisia and cultivated it for the most varied purposes."
Reading this this morning triggered two memories for me. A childhood memory, my father who was born in the woods of Carnia, and who had bought a book on healing with herbs.
The other memory, an article in Fatto Quotidiano which concerned the victory of a small company producing a Cola-based drink against the multinational Coca-Cola.
Having worked for a short period in a fair trade shop, I remember the battles of indigenous communities against the exploitation of their products. However, I leave it up to you to search online if you are interested in the topic.
Plant biodiversity is as important as animal biodiversity, are you agree?

Shhhh, don't tell a soul: sometimes open doors are interesting too!
Yes, there are two doors on this single portal. It's the doorway into Westminter's Pyx Chamber. It's a pity that you can't see more of the exterior door. Both it and the inner door have three locks each.
We went into the Pyx Chamber to answer a question about architecture from the era of Edward the Confessor. Diving down that rabbit hole uncovered the existence of and reason for these two doors and their six locks. The people of London can't all be trusted!
That last speculation is, well, speculation. I have no idea where the miscreants who necessitated those locks originated. What is said to be the case is that originally, entrance to this space was via the vestibule to the Chapter House. It was out that way that the King's treasure wandered with, apparently, some assistance.
Later, after the early 14th theft, these doors, and all of those locks, took over the security duty.
There you have it, it's not just closed doors that create interest; sometimes.
For the Macro Mondays challenge "Queen" (July 31st 2017)
I almost gave up on this week. Yes the queen's head is on all the stamps, and all the coins - not on paper money here in Scotland though (we have three banks that print Scottish notes). I tried - but nothing inspiring emerged! Then I was shooting reflections on the back of a spoon, and wondered what an old envelope from the 1990s would look like ... and the answer is ... like this ;o)

When a crazy fog movement rolled into Toronto recently, many of the city's photographers went out to shoot the fog. The initial inclination for us 'rooftoppers' is to head for the closest and tallest building you can find...which we did. As the fog rolled in blanketing us at the current roof level (around 53 storeys) my friend Ryan had an obvious answer as to where to go next; the highest vantage point in the city.
After a hilarious encounter with the staff of said building (which I will share with you in person should that day ever come), we were literally on top of the world looking down on the city engulfed in fog. Ryan, known for his timelapse work (see Toronto Tempo) was doing his thing while I was there with only my Olympus OM-D and a couple of shots left on my Bronica medium format camera. We both did ok from up there.
Also, if you haven't seen my Rooftopping article in the Daily Mail, check it out.

Thanks for all the fun answers on my picture yesterday, the answer is that it was a firework, shot using the focus blur technique. This is when you change the focus during the exposure.
This is another focus blur firework, duplicated and flipped several times :)
I only get the chance to try this once a year and stupidly this year I forgot to take any masking tape with me...you need it to mark the lens focus ring for the point at which the fireworks are in focus, so you can go either away from that point or towards it. It doesn't work so well if you go past it so I didn't get as many hits this year as last. It's a great way to miss an entire fireworks display, so busy pressing buttons and twisting focus rings you don't get time to actually watch the fireworks!

WHK is an AM talk radio station serving the Cleveland area. It's apparently the sixth oldest (by FCC registration) radio station in the country.
It was late. Any other night, I would've been in bed. But sometimes you have to say "Screw the bank I work for" and set responsibility and routine and sleep aside... and follow that part of you that needs to be fed.
So there I was... late at night... driving my truck... bumping and jarring along pot-holed side streets. I followed my nose, my heart, my hunger to the places where there are no artificial lights... where strange things crash and rustle in the bush... and the smell of the ocean is heavy and warm and the wind is just strong enough to keep the clouds moving, and to keep the mosquitoes off my exposed arms.
At times I was terrified. Alone. Just me and the trees and the ocean and my camera and the moon. But not even fear can override the sheer joy... the pure exhilaration... of shooting at night.
This morning I am groggy. Hung over in the aftermath of so much beauty, and stillness, and wildness.
Work will be a challenge. I'll have to just dig in and not come out till it's done. Otherwise, I'll end up dreaming. And I did enough of that last night.
