South Hams Coast Devon.
"Ramblings"
Starting at sunrise a pleasant 12 mile circular coastal hike along with my wife for good company.
No birds of prey seen all morning early afternoon until we hit the very end of our walk.
Not walked this section of the coast for birding although its not too far off my regular birding patch.
Nice welcome surprise to see two Kestrels quartering at the top of the very steep final climb before we reached the end of our walk.
Worth the little extra weight in the ruck-sack carrying the OM-1 with the 100-400 all day while this was the only time the camera came out of my bag but I was pleased I brought it along with me having not used the Olympus for quite some time and of course I bagged myself a pleasing image of this hovering Kestrel.
Con esta foto despido el día, la verdad que me recuerda a un paintball o como si el aerogenerador dijera te la paso.
With this photo I say good bye to the day, the truth that reminds me of a paintball or as if the wind turbine said I throw it to the other turbine.
Vanessa is one of our all time favourite brides who has returned for her maternity shoot. She is always smiling and so radiant that she lights up a room.
Even heavily pregnant she is still walking her dogs regularly and keeping active so I knew I wanted to photograph her away from the studio... a bit of a change from my usual maternity images.

This was taken while on vacation in Cuba. Apparently the rooms were infested with cockroaches and as a result they had to fumigate the whole resort. As we opened the doors to our rooms the gas flowed out and created this haze. Pretty cool effect with the backlight.
Nothing fancy tonight ... just goofing around with backlight during my last walk with Sandy at Linus Palmer Park in Wyoming, MI.
I did manage to get myself bitten by another dog on this walk ... when it attacked Sandy as I tried to protect her. :-(
I'm carrying my walking stick again from now on!
Early morning light was streaking through these Sycamore leaves near the National Trust Shop, Wells.
White balance warmed up to give an orange glow and tonemapped for enhanced contrast.
Thanks for the visit, comments, awards, invitations and favorites.

La otra tarde salí con mi amigo José Miguel Salazar a dar una vuelta con nuestras cámaras. Estuvimos por el paraje de Las Fuentes del Marqués (Caravaca). A pesar de que al principio el cielo y la luz parecía no ser muy buena, al final la cosa cambió y aunque íbamos en busca de agua en movimiento acabamos fotografiando el cielo del atardecer. Creo que mereció la pena.
The other evening I went with my friend José Miguel Salazar to turn around with our cameras. We were the site of Las Fuentes del Marqués. While at first the sky and the light seemed to be not very good in the end the thing changed. Although we were looking for moving water just photographing the sunset sky. I think it was worth.
Another drink still-life, perfect for those lazy days. I used an sb 600 (though I suppose any speedlight, studio strobe or clamp lamp will do) coupled with an umbrella and a 5-1 reflector/diffuser for diffused backlight. And I used 2 foamcore boards to the side (for some reason?)
Many thanks to Anne D'Huart who encouraged me to participate ... Four of my pictures are published in this issue ....
Anne D'Huart, une amie et photographe de grand talent, m'a fortement encouragée cet été à participer au numéro du magazine Backlight, portant sur le thème "Ensemble". À la suite d'un vote les quatre photos soumises ont été choisies pour paraître dans la publication. Je ne ferai jamais d'expos alors cette récompense est accueillie avec un immense plaisir, un beau cadeau ... Du fond du cœur, Anne, je te remercie pour tout ... et te souhaite un merveilleux voyage ;-))
