If you plant one dandelion, chances are you’ll soon have about eight hundred to pull up.
Dandelions reproduce asexually, so each new dandelion is a genetic copy of its parent plant

"To cherish what remains of the Earth and foster it's renewal is our only legitimate hope for survival"- Wendall Berry
an image from the beginning of our journey 8 days ago which pretty much sums up the emotion of being on Icelandic roads.
Happy Monochrome Monday!
♫ Dead Or Alive - You Spin Me Round ♫ (Because he kept humming this song...)
Taken at Faded: LANA~
Beautiful music was playing across the hidden ethereal forest. It felt like an awakening dream to be drawn towards haunting tunes. Her steps were light when she spotted the figure playing on the old piano.
The fog around them thickened while she sat next to him and just enjoyed the music he was creating.
"Sleep a little." He said, "You seem tired."
"How did you know?" she asked, raising her eyebrows.
He didn't answer and just continued the enchanting music until she couldn't stay awake and stole the chance for a little sleep.

Luckily, for us, the rain held off on our day trip to Ocean City, New Jersey. No sun, just that wonderful smell of the sea all around us. We walked a couple of miles on the boardwalk, only stopping to buy molasses paddles at the fudge shop. And no, no one even slowed their pace to let me focus and compose shots :(
A Chance Encounter..
Peaches.. The smell of peaches captured my attention..
It was unusual for such a crisp autumn day
Looking up from my usual coffee and paper morning routine to find its source..
I saw her.. she was young.. yet elegantly dressed with a sophisticated presence..
She was struggling with a huge great Dane.. which gave me a chuckle as he did not want to walk any further and he was clearly winning the argument.
She sat down and ordered ..I glanced back at my paper, but something about her demanded my attention..
A slight breeze blew by as she tucked a few strands of her hair behind her ears..
I grabbed my sketch book and tried to capture her in that moment..
I began to wonder.. let my mind drift and a story began to form.. surprising myself as many months had past without any.
Words.. began to flow it was difficult to keep up with..
I look up.. she had gone.. small sense of disappointment flashed across my mind.. but smiling knowing the story had just begun.

in the milkweed patch. I never expected to find a ladybug and a monarch caterpillar in such close proximity to one another. In case you're wondering, the caterpillar seemed to have been checking out the ladybug and then it took off.
Thank you for your views and comments, much appreciated! Have a great day!
Lyrics:
Great titles do nothing Beautiful slogans mean nothing Love is a sentimental hodgepodge Write, look, die, fight, then lose it We're familiar with battles and numbers We've got no chance to win alone This sick ambition up closle will turn any plan into ashes We're familiar with battles and numbers We've got no chance to win alone And it's not worth it anymore, we've become void There's an emptiness all around, maybe we'll fill it up We'll replace sweet lies with truth The emptiness will disappear, we'll fill it up together Out of breath The pulse quickens Out of breath The pulse quickens Great titles do nothing They'll not see their own pride The ego got lost in its thoughts, exits, profits Too much loss In love with numbers, drinks, exposed to another shot This sick ambition up closle will turn any plan into ashes We're familiar with battles and numbers We've got no chance to win alone And it's not worth it anymore, we've become void There's an emptiness all around, maybe we'll fill it up We'll replace sweet lies with truth The emptiness will disappear, we'll fill it up together And it's not worth it anymore, we've become void There's an emptiness all around, maybe we'll fill it up We'll replace sweet lies with truth The emptiness will disappear, we'll fill it up together Out of breath The pulse quickens Out of breath The pulse quickens
I was here just one day and it just happened that when I came here the weather was once again perfect for a picture. Seems unlikely that I am so lucky, but it has happened before. The days before and the next day the weather was really boring, cloudy and rainy. What are the chances?

A beautiful jay enjoying an acorn in an Autumn oak wood 1 of the nicest sights of the season imo. Fantastic to watch these amazing crows they are so clever !!
Amazing birds very secretive and shy when they want to be .Spring and summer they stick to cover screeching their annoyance at anyone that dares disturb them but autumn comes and they seem to be everywhere especially where theres a chance of finding some acorns !!

...driving down a local country lane to capture frost and fog saw these Roe Deer running across a field knowing they would cross this track,so jumped out of the car and quickly took this-very much-grab shot!
I watch a number of YouTubers who are very disciplined in their photography. They go out with a plan and a shot in mind. Me, I'm more of a lets see what we can find type photographer.

India
During my trip to India I got chance to visit few places for birding. With my friend Anupam Dash I visited Bhitarkanika (Only place in India where you can find all seven species of kingfishers) Mangroves for kingfishers and Manglajodi wetland for mostly waders and waterfowls. Both these locations are vast and home ground for Anupam. He has been working at thease both locations from decades. He has trained his team member as boat operators and they work with him seamlessly to put the boat at right place and angle to get perfect position for shot as he directs. He is amazing to know the active spots in that vast area at particular time and season. His team takes very little time to reach to place where action is going on considering huge area to cover. Although I was little late in season, he was able to find good number of species for me. If you are visiting any place in India or those places for bird photography, I highly recommend joining Anupam. A big thanks my friend. Here is Bluethroat we photographed at Manglajodi.

I am always on the lookout for a good sunset. For me a good sunset needs some clouds to give it just the right pop. Chances tonight were 50/50. I think I won.
While I've shot this location several times before I finally feel like this is post worthy.

From Sonnet 18
It is well known now as Shakespeare's phrase "The Darling Buds of May" was used as the title for his novel by H.E. Bates... which has since been adapted for television too 😊
Apologies for using my Japanese plum in 3 successive photos - I am enjoying it before it freezes (-2.6c last night)

Sonnet 18
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date;
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;
Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
Early this weekend when we had some clouds along with the sunrise, this eagle was sitting in a tree on the edge of a large wetland pond in the Dalbo WMA. I pulled off the road, took a few shots and was not happy with them. He gathered his wings and flew off and I thought that was the end of my opportunity. But within 10 minutes he flew back into the same tree and perched on the end of a dead branch near the top.

Pond
An area of water smaller than a lake, often artificially made
Ponder
To think carefully about something, especially for a noticeable length of time
Ponderings is a series of semi-abstract photos of water features with vegetation, in which the light seems to play a game with our perception. The works not only contain reflections, but perhaps also invite us to reflect. From this principle, the name Ponderings originated.
'Every Chance That I Take' (together with other Ponderings) were on display for the first time at the PAN Amsterdam art fair 24/11 - 01/12 at the Amsterdam RAI.
