Tatiana Weston-Webb doing powerful turns in full control at Rocky Point on the North Shore. This season she's been performing well on the World Championship Tour (best of the best) as an injury replacement, and is also close to qualify for the next season.
I spent the better part of an hour watching as this Eastern Phoebe worked a shoreline of Horsepen Bayou, making a circuit of the driftwood branches, repeatedly launching after flying insects and returning to the same perch to eat them before moving on to the next station.

Hurrying to a sunrise location while it was still dark my D810 was mounted on the tripod and I was carrying it cross body in front of me. I stumbled and took a face plant landing on my D500 that was attached to the Cotton Carrier vest. I landed hard really hard but the sun was ready to light the sky so I did what any respectable photographer would do, I got up dusted myself off and continued to the spot I'd scouted the previous day. It wasn't until I finished shooting sunrise that I looked down and saw the damage to the camera. First thing I did was take a few shots to check if everything was in working order thankfully it was.
Once home from camp I Googled the problem and discovered through the magic of YouTube the repair was something I could do and the part is very affordable. It took me until now to order the part which is sitting in the office waiting to replace the ome.
Nikon takes a lickin' and so do I but we are still going.
Happy Monday!
UPDATE: Today I replaced the broken window once again I can view my settings.

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.
Here in Eugene, Oregon lie the remnants of a once mighty train company Southern Pacific which was bought out by the Union Pacific. The remains of a roundhouse, machine shop, and evidence of support buildings not to mention an intact turntable. This photograph of some type of junction I have no idea what for but it was intriguing.
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”.

The M.Y. RAVEN was launched on July 11, 1889 by TB Seath and Company of Rutherglen, having been commissioned in response to the growing popularity of Ullswater as a tourist destination.
She was named after Ravencragg, the lakeside home of company director William Hugh Parkin.
In 1912, Raven was made a temporary royal yacht when the German Emperor Wilhelm II visited Ullswater during his stay with the 5th Earl of Lonsdale. Her decks were painted yellow, the Earl's personal colour, for the occasion.
In 1934, Raven was converted from steam and fitted with twin diesel engines. She is the largest vessel in the fleet, and is a member of the National Historic Fleet.
Ullswater 'Steamers' provides pleasure ‘steamer’ sailings on Ullswater in the north-eastern part of the English Lake District. It is based in Glenridding, Cumbria. Founded in 1855, it currently operates five diesel powered vessels between four locations on the lake. The oldest vessel in its fleet was launched in 1877.
The company was founded as the Ullswater Steam Navigation Company in 1855, and originally moved mail, workers and goods between the Greenside Mine at Glenridding and the village of Pooley Bridge at the opposite end of the lake.
On 13 August 1859, the company's first purpose-built vessel, the paddle steamer ENTERPRISE, was launched, although it subsequently sank in the lake. In 1877, the company introduced the steam powered pleasure steamer MY LADY Of THE LAKE, and this was joined in 1889 by the MY RAVEN. Both are still in service.
In 1900 the company was renamed as the Ullswater Navigation and Transit Company. In the 1930s, the company converted its fleet of two steam powered pleasure cruisers, the MY LADY OF THE LAKE and the MY RAVEN, to operate on diesel engines. In 1954 Sir Wavell Wakefield bought a controlling shareholding in Ullswater 'Steamers' to prevent the company from being wound up. The company is still in the ownership of the family of Lord Wakefield, as Sir Wavell subsequently became.
In 2001, the company started to operate sailings during the winter; it had previously only operated during the summer season. Between the years of 2001 and 2010, three additional vessels were acquired by the company, these being the LADY DOROTHY, LADY WAKEFIELD and WESTERN BELLE. All three were acquired from previous salt-water service and conveyed to the lake by road. In 2015 a new jetty was opened by the company at Aira Force.

Still in business today, Balfour Beatty has been a major player in the UK construction and civil engineering markets. Founded in 1909, its initial operations focused on tramways, with a notable presence in the East Midlands. That activity led Balfour Beatty to diversify into power generation and general contracting, playing a key role in the development of Britain’s National Grid. During the same 1930s period, Balfour Beatty replaced the trams with buses at its subsidiary companies.
Just three bus companies remained on Balfour Beatty’s books when it decided to exit the market at the end of the 1940s. Thus, Midland General, Notts & Derby and Mansfield District were sold to the state-controlled British Transport Commission. Previously major buyers of AEC and Leyland buses, the ex-Balfour Beatty bus fleets then took a steady influx of standard Bristol/Eastern Coachworks vehicles. However, the old liveries were retained, together with other details (eg destination layouts) that differentiated the fleets from the general BTC run of the mill.
This view at Newark Bus Station proved to be the sole occasion I photographed buses of the former Balfour Beatty bus fleets: all three companies lost their identities soon afterwards under National Bus Company management. On the left is Mansfield & District 545 (24MNN), a Bristol FLF6G Lodekka new in 1963. Its companion is 104 ( JNU993D), a 1966 dual-purpose Bristol MW6G that was registered by Midland General Omnibus but seen here in service with Mansfield District.
