Pray for Me Guys! I'm not a big spicy foods fan but I am putting myself up for the Spicy Noodle Challenge! I've got milk, I've got water, and in the freezer I've got some ice cream to combat the heat. Wish Me Luck!

A few weeks back our camera club had an outing to Canary Wharf in east London to photograph a 'winter lights' display, a selection of light displays scattered around Canary Wharf (some of them very good) that got underway once it got dark.
The meet up was at 5:30 pm but I decided to make my way there beforehand and so arrived in the early afternoon for what I hoped would be some long exposure photography. That didn't really turn out too well to be honest but I am forever the architectural enthusiast and so I set about shooting some of the architecture around the estate with a wide angle lens.
One of the compositions I saw in my mind's eye almost immediately was this one with all the vertical shapes in the frame. And for once, in a winter that has been as dull and gloomy as I can remember here in the UK, for once it was sunny and gloriously bright. The whole world seems lit up when the sun shines, our moods become more open and people linger in sunny spaces where otherwise they would slink back to their offices and places of work. It was just lovely to be out with a camera.
This was not a long exposure as you can probably see but the water was still and the reflections on it were clear. It's March as of tomorrow and I'm really starting to imagine we'll soon be getting more of this kind of weather... please!
Dor Walker, here's my version... adjusted various tones & hues plus the little puddle. Tried to add some punch to it but don't know if I succeded.
Thanks for the challenge!

Même secteur, quelques minutes plus tôt. Un petit 12 venu défier de la voix le maître des lieux. Le bougre nous est sorti dans les pieds ou presque. Pas de miracle à pareille (courte) distance...
It's mainly very expensive clothes for people who spend summer holidays on boats. With summer over, I don't think there will be many customers. There was only one boat left in the harbour after I saw the last three sailboats leave. The canal will now be closed until next summer.

Maybe its my height or maybe its my inner girl, but heels have always been the quintessential piece to my wardrobe. I don't feel complete without the 'right' pair of shoes.
Some people say heels make them feel powerful and others say sexy. For me, I feel complete and confident and I wear them because of that. The fact that they make me a little taller, just another bonus...almost can reach the top shelf in the cupboard. :-)

Florida has one of the densest concentrations of nesting bald eagles in the lower 48 states, with an estimated 1,500 nesting pairs. Concentrations of nesting territories are clustered around several significant lake, river, and coastal systems throughout the state. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has monitored the population of nesting bald eagles in Florida since 1972.
The bald eagle was removed from the USFWS endangered species list and the FWC imperiled species list in 2007 and 2008, respectively. The bald eagle continues to be protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, along with the state bald eagle rule (68A-16.002, F.A.C.).
This male and female were issuing a challenge (or warning) to another Bald eagle couple which had flown into their territory!

I was browsing my contacts pics and came upon her challenge.. so Bella.. this is your fault..LMAO!

I bought this lovely art piece from Denise Kooperman, a Trumansburg, NY artist that works with felt.
The Challenge: Take a photo looking up.
I thought this would be easy but with grey skies etc, I didn't like any of my shots. I was out watering and casually took this pic looking up at my chimney pots, Thanks goodness the sky had cleared!!

My thanks to all who visit and comment it is appreciated.
I recently had a chance to spend a number of hours photographing Broad-Tailed hummingbirds in northern Colorado. What I have concluded, is that if these birds were any larger and carnivorous.....humans would not exist! These tiny and speedy birds are incredibly territorial and spend much of their day fighting over who should get to visit the feeders. One of my greatest photographic challenges is capturing these mighty little fighters with my camera. So much has to fall into place to be able to get 2 birds in focus in one image. This is why it takes hours of trying and waiting.

Saturday Self Challenge: Surprise
When we saw our 14 year old grandson just over two months ago, he was playing pleasant tunes on the piano, Returning this week, we were amazed to hear classical music wafting through the house. Here he playing the main theme from the movie "Interstellar". A most pleasant surprise indeed.
