Hunting prey in the last light of the day.
Comb-tooth fungus, might be hericium ramosum, or might be hericium coralloides. Either way, it is definitely of the genus Hericium, the family of comb tooth fungi.
Abandoned sometime ago but mostly untouched and frozen in time. This Textile factory that went out of business. Very photogenic and amazing to see.

The mist appeared to be almost boiling through the trees, as it swirled and seethed on the wind.

One of my most wanted targets on our trip to The Kimberleys were these Comb-crested Jacana. Lily Creek Lagoon is well known for its bird life, particular these peculiar waterbirds & I'd seen many wonderful images of them from this lagoon, so I was hopeful for success.
I had no idea what I would witness on our first evening at the lagoon!
I was watching one particular Jacana fuss about a specific spot on the lagoon. After a few minutes, she started calling. Within seconds, her partner was on the scene & ready for action! Over the next minute or two I watched the male awkwardly try & stabalise himself on his partner's back, which was clearly a tall order with those fantastic feet! While those feet are an asset for walking over lily pads, they present somewhat of a challenge when attempting to reproduce!
After a couple of very awkward (& hilarious!) attempts, the male finally managed to do the deed. And the circle of life continues! Such a thrill to capture this behaviour!

Having grown my hair a lot longer than I usually do and needing to keep it tidy I have to comb it before I leave for work. At some point I may have a No. 2 hairstyle again where a comb would be completely unnecessary.
Here I used a peg to keep the comb upright on a white tile and backlit it using my desk lamp. The intention was to show shadows extending from the teeth which worked well. I also found that I got reflections in the tile so I composed for this in portrait rather than landscape.
