Milky Way @ Stonehenge, Wiltshire UK
Well I've been a bit frustrated wrt the Milky Way core this year as when it's visible around 3am or so unless it's at a weekend I just can't shoot it as I wreck myself for work and weekends have been pretty crap so far.
I got myself a second hand fast prime lens through mpb earlier in the year and have been wanting to try it out for astro.
More recently the MWC has been 'visible' just after midnight but again far too many clouds most nights. However, the other night there was a forecast for skies to be clearing around midnight so I took a chance but wanted somewhere not to far away so despite the known light pollution I set off on the 35min drive to Stonehenge.
Experimented with f/1.4-f/2 shots and 2-2.5min exposures using the Move-Shoot-Move star tracker I have.
I can't say I think this is a great image and I'll try to convince myself it's more to do with the light pollution (I wish Salisbury's street lights went off at 10pm!) than my lack of shooting/editing skills. However I thought I'd post it just as a bit of a record of my first attempt with the Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art lens. 14mm would have been better but I'll cross my fingers canon will eventually see sense and let Sigma produce RF compatible glass.
For the record - the image is a composite of a 150s exposure at f/2 ISO100 for the sky and 30s f/4 ISO1600 for Stonehenge.
I'm planning on taking this lens to Iceland in October so wish me luck seeing and shooting the Northern Lights during the few nights I'm there on a Workshop.
Thanks for viewing and have a good weekend everyone..

A bit of practice on a flier with the Sigma 500 mm f4.5 handheld . Really enjoying the learning curve and enjoying the bit of extra reach and although not as quick as my 400mm f5.6 it does the job if I put in my part . Have to be one of the most fantastic birds to photograph and I could photograph them flying and hunting anytime !!

University started again and it's very interesting, but my schedule is really full as always and it's kinda exhausting already. So I will be (hopefully not to long) a bit missing on flickr. Additionally I have a flu since one week. Good news is my visit of munich was fantastic! Lots of sightseeing in one day - new record I think.
Have a wonderful monday friends!
Went on a bit of a Deer stalk today, as I wanted to try my hand to see if I could get close enough to get a shot, the ironic thing about todays stalk was that the stalked ended up stalking the stalker! something had previously spooked this Buck and we were watching some others near by, whilst our backs were turned this rather inquisitive buck came up behind us and just stood there watching for a good few minutes, once we realised we turned and rattled off a few shots :)

I've probably been in Thailand too long to think that the water of Emerald Lake would be anything other than freezing cold. Call me soft but even though it was a really hot day I only lasted a few seconds paddling in the lake
Fun time with some coins, lightbox, and color prism. Hope you enjoy this series as much as I liked playing around with the light and angles of the light.

Little fragments of ice riding the waves, waiting for the chance to become a part of something bigger.
OK so I'm being a bit lazy, a few people asked about the colour version when I posted the original black and white sometime ago , I was also too lazy to go out tonight and get some nice evening shots so heres the colour version given some HDR treatment whilst watching Lost (cant get into the new series, yeah Im sad I know :-). Quite different when in colour-hope you like it, hope to get out tomorrow night for more new pics
Thanks for explore Front Page folks
For this to make any sense it would be helpful to have a quick look at my previous picture of the Fire Station coffee shop (and art centre).....
I have photographed the exterior of this building on three occasions now. It is a street photographers dream. Yesterday Kerry enquired in the comments, if I had had a coffee? Well I felt a little guilty that I hadn’t and thought I would rectify that today.
There is currently an exhibition of sculpture by Johannes Von Stumm on in the Fire Station. I took my mother (who is an artist in her own right) to have a look around. I bought our coffees and then surveyed the artwork.....I’m always attracted to the price tags first.....One tag read £42,000 and another read £51,000. Beautiful artwork but not really my cup of tea (or price bracket)......
The pictured bronze was sat by the bar and caught my eye. I went over and looked at it. It was a completely different style of work to the other sculptures. Much more up my street. I enquired of the barman if this was made by Mr Von Stumm as well? .....
He said No. One of the bar staff had made it!!!!!
Heck there are some very talented people around.....
Thanks for visiting.
Have a good weekend.....
Broghammerus reticulatus or Malayopython reticulata, Netted Python, once had a nice, short name. Back in 1801 it was first described under the name Boa, then later it was called a bit longer: Python. And in the first decade of our own century a dispute arose on whether to call it by the long Broghammerus reticulatus or Malayopython reticulata. The ARTIS zoo clearly chose the former name, after German reptile lover and expert on pythons, Stefan Broghammer. The 'reticulatus' is for its 'net-shaped' markings.
Sometimes described as a wooden Thrup'nny bit this coin was worth 1/80 of a pound and bears some resemblance to the present pound coin having 12 sides and golden colour. I chose this for the "Redux" theme on currency.
Created for star theme in Macro Monday. HMM :-)
This Torx size 20 bit is almost 4mm across. I have smaller sizes, but this one is teeny enough. lol.. It’s part of my tiny screwdriver bit set that I originally bought for working inside computers. But now I also use it to open parts of the action figures I have that have LED lights. Some of their eyes light up, etc.
A bit of photoshop fun for Sliders Sunday.
Don't ask about the concept here because I'm not sure there is one LOL.
The base image was taken with an ND filter to get a long exposure which removed all of the traffic. The A380 is one of my stock one which I've used before. I tried to work with the proportions here where the wingspan is 80 meters.. Alas, the width of the M6 here is more like 45 metres (verge to verge) making the shadow's wing span approx 60 metres.. So, still a little short...
Anyway, thought it was (just about) worth sharing.. HSS.

Shot for Macro Mondays - spiral

masonry drill bits differ from normal drill bits in that they have a hardened cutting tip (usually tungsten carbide) that is used to chip/grind hard materials such as masonry, brick or stone rather than cut through the material. The deeply fluted spiral shape that of the bit helps to remove dust and debris from the hole that is formed. Masonry bits are tippically used in hammer drills that use a combination of percussion and rotation to create a hole of the desired dimension

More from Linlithgow on Friday. Dull and dreich here today which gives me time to get photos filed away. Awaiting delivery of a Canon RF 100-500 lens having partexed my old 500mm for it. The 500 was great but getting a bit too much to carry around.
Every bit as glorious as expected. To visit this place has been a lifelong dream of mine, so our trip was built around it. And I was blown away.
Life on the Rails
A bit of urban rhythm from the Zagreb archives. Main Station, Tomislav Square, and the impatient wait for the number "4" tram. While the sky threatens rain, people rush to catch up with their lives, and the blue tram is the only one that truly knows where we are heading. A different dynamic from my usual Karlovac scenes, but equally inspiring.
Život na tračnicama
Malo urbanog ritma iz zagrebačke arhive. Glavni kolodvor, Tomislavac i nestrpljivo čekanje "četvorke". Dok nebo prijeti kišom, ljudi žure stići svoje živote. Dok nebo prijeti kišom, ljudi žure stići svoje živote, a plavi tramvaj jedini zna kamo zapravo idemo. Malo drugačija dinamika od one moje karlovačke, ali jednako inspirativna.
We had a bit of excitement here in the UK last week. I had a fascinating time trying to capture this, totally alien to me so not great shots all hand held and captured from my home . This is where I would normally capture the sunrise ! I'm sure I haven't done it justice but I tried and tried until I finally surrendered :)

I don't do nudity as a rule, this was a bit of fun as always with Sergio
God knows we do the craziest things together - we will see a pose and before we know it we are finding comedy in it and that is exactly what we did in this pose.
We laugh until we cry and our humour is contagious when we are together, I have never known a man who I can laugh so much with in all my life!
Adore this man and it is not your typical romantic relationship like most in SL.
There is freedom with us, to be who we are and love one another just as we are - warts and all and to not take life so seriously.
We dance, we laugh, and we just enjoy our limited time with one another!
