Anacamptis morio 2014, Antanges, VD, Switzerland. One of our first orchids. I am really looking forward!
Just an an archived original from my April 2013 trip to Scotland for today. Taken with the Panasonic FZ150 on Lunga, the little Island off the Isle of Mull.
Mural "The archive" by 'A Squid Called Sebastian' at Voetweg 6 in Ghent, Belgium
In this students area, Squid showcases his talent to work with (or around) the elements a wall offers. The many papers you see on this wall, refer to the archive from the liberal workers union that's situated in the building.
I had to post an archive shot of this House Finch because I had one of those extremely frustrating days with a camera. I took my old Panasonic for a test run before I decided whether or not to keep it. I wish I had brought one of my Sony cameras. What I got very blurry pics of: a beaver, a osprey, a kingfisher, wood ducks and a pied-billed grebe. I could scream! If I had brought my Sony I'd have something to post! The Panasonic (which I dropped two years ago and has suffered greatly ever since) is still good for closeup shots. I'm going to give it, with batteries, a charger, and an SD card, to Goodwill. Maybe someone with less high expectations than I have will enjoy it. I am a "pixel peeper."
Photo of a photo, obvs. I was going through some photos last night and found a couple I thought I'd put up. I'm starting to marvel at how much my face has changed and not changed at the same time.
This was taken in the last couple of weeks in San Diego. Either late July or early August, 1999. I was crossing the border into Tijuana to get myself a monkey on a surfboard. Two of my friends from the UK were with me (taking the shot).
This used to be a standard pose of mine whenever a camera appeared. I didn't used to be so camera shy. I'm a little sad to discover how I've changed in that vein.
Haven't seen an impressive sunrise in quite some time, so it's back to the archives to remind myself what they look like.
I'd missed this one on initial processing of the shots from Howick Scar a month ago or so, as the bright reds of the early morning were much more eyecatching. On reflection though, I decided I quite like the way the clouds all seem to be being sucked away to the far right of the picture.
This was taken from about as far as I could go along the scar, using an ND grad to hold back the sky and cloudy white balance to warm the shot.

Bad weather outside so time to play with the backfiles. From a day in Central Wisconsin 3 years ago.
The top three floors (of five) in the American Heritage Center, seen from an outdoor art exhibit between it and the museum. University of Wyoming.
I just stumbled across this guy. I believe he is a wheehamcam photo taken a few years ago. Judged it as a complete failure at the time, but now I found it kind of fun.
Sigh, back to the archives again!
Came across this old photo of a hungry Common Porcupine (Erethizon dorsatum) recently, when I was backing up a few more files and deleting them from my computer. Taken at Sikome, Fish Creek Park, on 17 December 2009.
■The common porcupine is a large, robust rodent. Adults weigh about 10 kilograms (22 pounds).
■Has a thick tail, and short powerful legs with long curved claws.
■Coat is composed of rows of dense, brown undercoat with yellow-tipped guard hairs.
■Guard hairs alternate with rows of loosely attached quills that vary from 25 to 65 millimetres (1 to 2.5 inches) in length.
■Quills taper to a sharp and stiff point that is covered with very small barbs.
■Quills are hollow, thus reducing their weight and providing buoyancy when the animal occasionally swims.

Those days we just used to grab the camera and some lights, and in this case a wedding dress... drive around and just play where the light seemed good.

Pumpkin Pie leaning against the nurse nun's door
out at the monkey temple. She has many wounds
from primate attacks and soon after this she was
moved into our home where she still lives with us.
Please remember Pumpkin Pie is a Princess ;)-
And Mr. Monkey the MoJo Man is her boy toy!
Plan is to still celebrate Christmas in the MCF.

From the archives a real-life cowboy doing his thing. I just happened across this cowboy and only had a moment to get this shot as he was gone in a flash. At first I thought the exposure was a bit off but that's just the dust being kicked up. The cows closest to the camera weren't impacted by the dust, at least not this side of them.
