My wife carries this change purse every time she goes out. I don't know why?

I carry NOTHING with me other than keys, a wallet and a phone, none of which were available as subjects for today's MM.. My wife came through again!

I have photographed these particular leaves every day for the past two weeks just to see the colour changes.

A couple motors sit outside the barn in Worcester; their colors tell of changes in the air.

Changing seasons.

iPhone slow shutter capture to show the changing urban scape here. More towers are coming; not to my liking. Thanks for your appreciation, Gail

One of my contacts let me know about the Change Project, so I decided to add this shot.

As the season progresses these Limelight hydrangeas go from palest green through cream to pink.

Fall colors are just beginning to grip the trees along the banks of the Virgin River in Zion National Park. I was hoping for a bit more color, but according to locals the changes were a bit late this year. Nonetheless, still spectacular!

Thanks for your views and comments! They are greatly appreciated!

NB: Lens EXIF is incorrect. Lens used was Voigtländer 28mm Ultron

Reminder for the People's Climate March.

Before we leave New York, I'll abandon my usual practice of subject diversification, and post only street photography for the next 3 weeks. Apologies to the fans of abstraction & nature--they'll be back in the next location.

Love Changes Things. 24 x 36. Watercolor. 2002. Just as light changes these antique roses into something of extraordinary beauty, love transforms ordinary people into extraordinary friends. My favorite painting. This won best of show when displayed in 2002. I call this my miracle painting as I almost did not live to finish it. Through God's divine intervention I am cured! I've never been healthier or happier.

An excellent 20 x 30 giclee reproduction on watercolor paper is available. Contact me for details.

“You are a light that will always guide me, a whisper I’ll always strain to hear.” Lora Leigh.

On the south coast of the town of Wicklow, you will find one of the most incredible lighthouses in Ireland. Although there were two other active lighthouses at this headland in the past, it was decided to build a third on the lower part of the cliffs, as the other two often lacked visibility due to the fog. Today, one of the original lighthouses conserves only its tower (which is used as a hotel) and the other is in ruins, so only the most modern, built in 1818, is still in operation.

There are many photographic possibilities with this lighthouse, but in my opinion the most interesting option is to photograph it in the month of September at sunrise, since the position of the sun is ideal to complement the composition if you opt for a view of the lighthouse from the top of the cliffs.

After walking 15 minutes at night from my hotel and waiting patiently lying on the rocks to reduce the effects of the strong wind, the twilight and the first moments of sunrise were not very photogenic for me. However, when the sun rose high enough above the horizon it struck with its golden light the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, as well as the lighthouse and the cliffs. It was the time for our great guide of light to take over from the beautiful stone guide located under my feet.

"Tú eres una luz que siempre me guiará, un suspiro que siempre me esforzaré por escuchar." Lora Leigh.

En la costa sur del pueblo de Wicklow, se encuentra uno de los faros más increíbles de Irlanda. Aunque en el pasado hubo otros dos faros activos en este cabo, se decidió construir un tercero en la parte más baja de los acantilados, ya que los otros dos a menudo carecían de visibilidad por la niebla. Hoy en día, uno de los faros originales conserva sólo su torre (que se utiliza como hotel) y el otro está en ruinas, por lo que sólo el más moderno, construido en 1818, está aún en funcionamiento.

Son muchas las posibilidades fotográficas que ofrece este faro, pero en mi opinión la opción más interesante es fotografiarlo en el mes de septiembre al amanecer, ya que la posición del sol es ideal para complementar la composición si se opta por una vista del faro desde la parte de arriba de los acantilados.

Tras caminar 15 minutos a oscuras desde mi hotel y esperar pacientemente tumbado en las rocas para reducir los efectos del fuerte viento, el crepúsculo y los primeros momentos de la salida del sol no fueron muy fotogénicos para mí. Sin embargo, cuando el sol subió lo suficiente sobre el horizonte golpeó con su luz dorada las aguas del Océano Atlántico, así como el faro y los acantilados. Había llegado el momento para que nuestro gran guía de luz tomara el relevo del bello guía de piedra situado bajo mis pies.

Took this at Raglan, the sun had just gone done. Really the title relates to watching the day change to night but also I got made redundant (due to finish in June, company closing also) a few months ago and have found a new job so big exciting changes ahead for me and a major relief!

This image is a big thanks to Sonja who has sent me some encouraging words whilst I was looking for work-cheers-no pink sorry though-hope its OK :-)

A few months later and the palette has changed completely. This one from my 1st batch on Velvia 50 - love the colours!

I know this picture isnt the greatest, I was trying to catch a couple birdies in the tree, and didnt even notice, till I downloaded the picture, that I caught the moon as well. But hey, on the up side, its a new picture! Well... Newish...lol...

Well, there are going to be some changes to my photo stream here within the next week or so. With that latest "tagged" contest that was going around, and scanning old pictures, I decided to take the past couple weeks and scan ALL my old pictures. It has taken me, what seems like forever to do them, but I think I got them all. I will be uploading them all to flickr as well. They are pictures of just about everything about my life. Places I've been, things I've seen, family, childhood, friends, people that have come and gone in my life, and even some pictures from loooong ago... I ran even across a couple that are over 125 years old that I will be posting as well. PLUS some recetly taken pictures that I have been trying to retrieve from a hard drive that had a virus in it for the past 2 years, and I finally figured out how to get them! What a freakin pain that was... I also got my 4,000 downloaded songs back! *Whew*...

I know most people start out on flickr with a ton of pictures, then get more serious about there photography, and I seem to be doing it bass ackwards... But thats just me! Feel free to go through them if you like when I get them up here. There will be a bunch of them. Somewhere between 6-7000 by the time I'm done. Some of them are pretty neat too!:o)

Hey, we are all paying to use the space here, so we may as well use it, right?!

Thanks again my friends! :o)

Taken at sunset on my familiar haunt - North Flynn Road in Livermore.

This image was taken just over a week ago during a explore at a local woodland.

The aim was to capture the change of seasons. The autumn colours were there however summer was still visible.

The foggy conditions helped to motivate an early start as it was still dark when I got to the location. With the fog present I knew that it was going to be a good visit.

A nice walk along the river observing the differing contrasts in just a few km's.

Thank you for viewing my work, it's much appreciated!

Cielo cangiante in questa mattina di novembre 🍁

The clouds were moving so fast that there was a new sky every few seconds.
