Thank you so much in advance for all your kindness and support .I really appreciate it you're all amazing . Huge hugs and so much love to you all my dear friends 💕
I arrived at the site to discover I hadn't packed my tripod in the car boot. I can't handle a 500mm f4 lens unsupported for any length of time, so that was a huge negative at the start of the day having driven the 40 miles from Nottingham. The consequence was that of 300 plus shots taken all were to a greater, or lesser degree soft and largely scrap, which was a shame, as I thought I'd otherwise got a range of nice clean shots of these lovely little birds. This was one of the slightly more presentable ones. I haven't had much joy with Whinchats over the 6 years I've been photographing birds - the curse of the Whinchat strikes again!
Many thanks to Stuart Allen for the locational advice, it was spot on. Snag was a week had gone by and that was something else I omitted to double check this morning!
Thank you for your faves an comments - much appreciated.

The Garden cross spider (Araneus diadematus) is a common and delightful sight that is found in gardens.
Cross spiders can only penetrate human skin at its thinnest points with their bite. The bite is only unpleasant and medically without long-term consequences, but it can cause clearly noticeable symptoms
that gets confused with the inevitable :-)

Violence against women is a human rights violation.
Violence against women is a consequence of discrimination against women, in law and also in practice, and of persisting inequalities between men and women.
Violence against women impacts on, and impedes, progress in many areas, including poverty eradication, combating HIV/AIDS, and peace and security.
Violence against women and girls is not inevitable. Prevention is possible and essential.
Violence against women continues to be a global pandemic.
This group of Greater Flamingos were performing their mating dance and display for dominance in Camargue, France.
The two flamingos in the center of this photography get their necks entangled with each other.
They quickly worked it out and then the group continued to perform the dancing ritual.
There are nine different postures during the courtship display and from these postures, there are more than 100 possible transitions between the postures.
The dance is a beautiful group behavior to watch and listen to.

One of the consequences of staying indoors is to revisit the skills I never had, like having a steady hand or finesse- unlike the great artist L S Lowry who painted matchstick men, cats and dogs- hear the song
"I stand alone in my present
to save anything if it can be saved.
Even if I have the consequences of the law
you will not have me as an accomplice in the murder..."

♪ Earth, Wind & Fire - I write a song for you ♪
I thirst but never quench
I know the consequence, feeling as I do
We're in a spinning top
Where, tell me, will it stop
And what am I to say
Open our music book, that only few can look
And I'll write a song for you, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Love is a symphony, hearts in one melody
'Cause I'll write a song for you
Sounds never dissipate
They only recreate
In another place
There's in your silent night
Joy of a song's delight
'Cause I'll write a song for you
You'll write a song for me
We'll write a song of love, of love
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
My magical mystique
Finding it all complete
In your lovely face
Feelings we try to chase
Memories that won't erase
Stay forever new
We have a magic box in which is never locked
'Cause I'll write a song for you
You'll write a song for me
We'll write a song of love-ah-ah-ah-ah
Yeah, yeah-ah-ah
We'll write a song of love, my baby
Write a song of love
You, for you, for you, you, for you, you, you
We have a magic box
We'll write a song of love
We'll write, (you, be you, for you) write a song of love
Sounds (for you) they never dissipate
They only recreate to another place in time
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, uh-uh-uh (for you)
We'll write a song, we'll write a song 'Cause you and me, baby (you for you, for you)
Uh-uh-uh-uh, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Uh-uh-uh, we, we are just spending time (for you)
We'll write a song, we'll write a song, we'll write a song
You be you, for you, you, for you
The consequences of our rainy spring months are still visible, but at least the light is getting better. We've had sunshine for three days in a row now, which is a first this year.
Ansel Adams would slap a red filter on his lens, then spend three days burning and dodging in the dark room, making his prints. That’s a manipulation. Even the photographs of Henri Cartier-Bresson, with all due respect to him, are notoriously burned and dodged :-)

This is one of the consequences of global warming, the sea is increasing levels and destroying everything in its way. Here, wreck of a big house with pool that was for renting. It made me sad when i saw this cause i wanted to spend a weekend there.
Hope you all are fine. Greetings from Honduras!
To be here in peace, it is necessary to integrate, accept and respect the space of each living form in this dimension ... or simply accept the consequences of not doing so.
view of Zamek Lubelski (Lublin Castle) from the arcade viaduct on Zamkowa (Castle) Street
The Lublin Castle (Zamek Lubelski) is a medieval castle in Lublin, Poland, adjacent to the Old Town district and close to the city center. It is one of the oldest preserved royal residencies in Poland, initially established by High Duke Casimir II the Just. Its contemporary Gothic Revival appearance is largely due to a reconstruction undertaken in the 19th century.
The hill it is on was first fortified with a wood-reinforced earthen wall in the 12th century. In the first half of the 13th century, the stone keep was built. It still survives and is the tallest building of the castle, as well as the oldest standing building in the city. In the 14th century, during the reign of Casimir III the Great, the castle was rebuilt with stone walls. Probably at the same time, the castle's Chapel of the Holy Trinity was built as a royal chapel.
In the first decades of the 15th century, King Władysław II Jagiełło commissioned a set of frescoes for the chapel. They were completed in 1418 and are preserved to this day. The artist was a Ruthenian, Master Andrej, who signed his work on one of the walls. Because of their unique style, mixing Western and Eastern Orthodox influences, they are acclaimed internationally as an important historical monument.
Under the rule of the Jagiellon dynasty the castle enjoyed royal favor and frequent stays by members of the royal family. The sons of King Casimir IV Jagiellon were brought up in the castle under the tutelage of Jan Długosz. In the 16th century, it was rebuilt on a grandiose scale, under the direction of Italian masters brought from Kraków. The most momentous event in the castle's history was the signing in 1569 of the Union of Lublin, the founding act of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.
As a consequence of the wars in the 17th century (The Deluge), the castle fell into disrepair. Only the oldest sections, the keep and the chapel, remained intact. After Lublin fell under Russian rule following the territorial settlement of the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the government of Congress Poland, on the initiative of Stanisław Staszic, carried out a complete reconstruction of the castle between 1826 and 1828. The new buildings were in the English neo-Gothic style, completely different from the structures they replaced, and their new purpose was to house a criminal prison. Only the keep and the chapel were preserved in their original state.
The castle was a prison for the next 128 years: as a Tsarist prison from 1831 to 1915, in independent Poland from 1918 to 1939, and most infamously during the Nazi German occupation from 1939 to 1944. Under Tsarist Russia prisoners included Polish resistance members, one of the most notable being writer Bolesław Prus. When between 40,000 and 80,000 inmates, many of them Polish resistance fighters and Jews, passed through. During World War II, the Castle Chapel was the location of a German court. Many prisoners were sent from the castle to concentration camps, including nearby Majdanek. Just before withdrawing on 22 July 1944, the SS and German prison officers massacred over 300 of the remaining prisoners. After 1944, the castle continued as a prison of the Soviet secret police and later of the Soviet-installed communist regime of Poland and, until 1954, about 35,000 Poles fighting against the new communist government (especially cursed soldiers) passed through it, of whom 333 died.
In 1954, the castle prison was closed. Following reconstruction and refurbishment, since 1957 it has been the main site of the National Museum.
when you realize something truly remarkable is happening and disappearing right in front of you, if you can pass a camera before your eye, you’ll tear a piece of time out of the whole, and in a breath, rescue it and give it new meaning.

Warburg-19-07-2021-002
Desenberg is an island mountain rising from the plain around the historic city of Warburg. It was created by volcanic activity but its current shape is the consequence of erosion of the surrounding area.

Tungurahua, Ecuador's 10th-highest peak, is a 5,016 meters (16,456 ft) high active stratovolcano also known as the "The Black Giant." It has a 600 ft. (183 m) wide crater. Most of the volcano is covered by snow.
Don't be fooled by descriptions of this mountain as "easy." People have died on this mountain and you need to be in good physical condition to climb it and enjoy it.
It is nowadays dangerous to climb (since 1999) as its increased volcanic activity has unpredictable eruptions as a consequence. You do not want to be caught on the volcano when major explosions of gases, ashes and lava occur.
When the volcano increased its activity in 1999, the ice cap melted away and the peak is since then ice free.
In spite of this many people still attempt to climb the volcano. ALWAYS check with locals about the mountains condition.

The trail, from the Park Entrance, to the Refugio is obvious and well-marked but fairly steep and takes 3-4 hours.

Panorama de la vallée de la Vésubie, jour de pluie. Photos assemblées avec Hugin software.
One year later (i.e. fall 2020), the Alex tempest made the Vésubie river that you can see, raging and devastating villages, houses and roads. Many victims and isolated people were accounted. We, scientists, have good reasons to think that such intense storms are direct consequences of the climate warming.
Please, take a few minutes and have a visit to the" World Scientist's Warning to Humanity" and share the article as widely as possible. Thanks.

und die Tatsache, dass keiner weiß, wie viele noch kommen -
macht mittlerweile müde.
Erneute Forderungen nach weiteren Kontaktbeschränkungen sogen für Unverständnis und ja - auch Ärger.
Mittlerweile kann ich nur noch die Spiegel in der Wohnung abnehmen, um keinem mehr zu nahe zu kommen ;-)))
Das macht mich "Mütend" - und es ist zugleich die neue Wortschöpfung dieser Zeit.
It is not about photography; it should be about life :-)

The seawater has receded due to low tide, which makes it impossible for several fishermen to get their boats closer to the wholesale fish market where they are going to unload their fish catch.
As a result, the fishermen and their assisting workers have to walk and wade in the shallow waters for more than 50 meters to carry the fish containers toward the market. And some have to do it a few times to complete the job.

Nothing twice
Nothing can ever happen twice.
In consequence, the sorry fact is2
that we arrive here improvised
and leave without the chance to practice.
Even if there is no one dumber,
if you're the planet's biggest dunce,
you can't repeat the class in summer:
this course is only offered once.
No day copies yesterday,
no two nights will teach what bliss is
in precisely the same way,
with precisely the same kisses.
One day, perhaps some idle tongue
mentions your name by accident:
I feel as if a rose were flung
into the room, all hue and scent.
The next day, though you're here with me,
I can't help looking at the clock:
A rose? A rose? What could that be?
Is it a flower or a rock?
Why do we treat the fleeting day
with so much needless fear and sorrow?
It's in its nature not to stay:
Today is always gone tomorrow.
With smiles and kisses, we prefer
to seek accord beneath our star,
although we're different (we concur)
just as two drops of water are.

grandeur can sometimes blind us to the point that we fail to see the little things which are just as beautiful. by the same token, sometimes we get too busy attending to "grander" things in life, the ones we consider "matters of consequence" that we forget the simple yet sometimes more important things. have you smelled a flower today? have you looked at the stars? have you smiled at a stranger? have you said "i love you" to the significant people in your life? have you held their hands? have you called or written a friend just to say hello? life is fleeting. and it would be so tragic to realize it's too late to do any of these simple things because we have been too busy with "matters of consequence" .
