Month of Mornings 13/30, Lake Waikopiro, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
One of the challenges as a landscape photographer is the lack of control that you have over one of the most important parts of the image: the weather
As we headed up to Lake Turtira, and its little brother Lake Waikopiro, this morning for my #monthofmornings excursion the weather looked promising; a bit of cloud and some hints of mist in the valleys. But when we arrived we found the sky was largely grey and dull, and there was no mist to be seen anywhere.
So the images this morning were not spectacular, but you can't expect to shoot a portfolio image every day.

There were scars before my scars
Love written on the hands that hung the stars
Hope living in the blood that was spilled for me.
A long-jawed orb weaver spider (Tetragnatha sp.) carrying a parasitoid wasp larva, likely an ichneumonid.
These remarkable larvae feed externally on the spider while chemically manipulating its behavior. Before pupation, the spider is induced to construct a modified web structure that protects the developing wasp larva, one of nature’s most extraordinary examples of parasite-driven behavioral control.
The larva gradually turns the spider into both a living food source and a chemically controlled puppet. One of many examples of evolution’s own “Neuralinks”.
So tired of posting shots in order...so I won't anymore.

Things in a row .
Well after a trek out to look for things in a row - and failed , I ended up using the controls from my Oven Top Pop Up Photo Studio ( once my studio in a box ) . That's it , the cooker controls and not too much waffle this week !!
A straight shot - cropped and tweaked to go a bit high key , job done !!
A link each to my failed shots :-
And so to Sight and Sound --
If I say Controls and Sun in one sentence , think we can guess where we are going -----
Voles are small rodents resembling field mice. Hawks were plentiful at the refuge today getting an easy meal. I guess i was "inbetween" their catch, as none had a vole in their beak while i watched....but a nearby coyote ate twelve [no kidding-i counted] in the twenty minutes i was parked there. Scroll to see a sampling of the hawks congregated at this field.

For some reason I'm kind of obsessed with this yellow machine.

A control room out of the 80s.
A lot of dials. Even got to walk in behind these giant panels and see what was in there - it was surprisingly dull. I like that the power cables driving these dials and computational units were huge - looked like 600volt lines or something from back then.
This place was scattered with the strangest collection of computer manuals, emergency operational guidlines and even magazines from the date the powerplant closed in the 80's. Magazines about Pet grooming, Macleans (Canadian political rag) and even gardening... telling what the people monitoring the plant at the time it closed were interested in. Sort of a strange time capsule.
