Curlew - Numenius Arquata
They are one of the most ancient lineages of scolopacid waders, together with the godwits which look similar but have straight bills.
Curlews feed on mud or very soft ground, searching for worms and other invertebrates with their long bills. They will also take crabs and similar items.
Curlews enjoy a worldwide distribution. Most species show strong migratory habits and consequently one or more species can be encountered at different times of the year in Europe, Ireland, Britain, Iberia, Iceland, Africa, Southeast Asia, Siberia, North America, South America and Australasia.
The distribution of curlews has altered considerably in the past hundred years as a result of changing agricultural practices. Reclamation and drainage of marshy fields and moorland, and afforestation of the latter, have led to local decreases, while conversion of forest to grassland in some parts of Scandinavia has led to increases there.

Fuchsia procumbens is a New Zealand endemic plant that is naturally uncommon. It is strictly coastal and occurs in the north of the North Island. It is a low growing scrambling plant with upright orange or yellow tubular flowers with blue pollen. Petals are absent, the sepals are 5-8 mm long and sharply reflexed. The flowers are unusual for a fuchsia in that they are upright rather than hanging. The flowers are very small and require close inspection or magnification to appreciate their beauty.

Andrey Blokhin e Georgy Kuznetsov,( Krasnodar, Russia) realizzano Conversion , che è un progetto site specific allestito nella chiesa di Sant’Antonin, in Venezia.
L’immaginario, la dimensione estetica e parte dell’iconografia, scelta dagli artisti per l’opera, fanno riferimento a temi religiosi di un passato, probabilmente rinascimentale.
L’effetto è molto interessante: entrando nella chiesa sembra di avere a che fare con un restauro in atto ( effetto attribuibile alle impalcature ) e contemporaneamente con l’olografica presenza di fantasmi, dovuta a la rete plastica che struttura l’opera.
Il tema centrale, che tratta con ironia della nuova fede tecnologica rivolta all’uso della rete (e segnatamente di facebook), è un po’ trito e rischia di rendere banale un lavoro formalmente molto suggestivo

This shot was done by using a plastic holder for remote controllers, placed it side way against a glass table, place the audio cable in it, shone a LED light on the top to create that flare on table.
End result not that bad with reflections that added some interestingness in the shot.
Did you enjoy the snow? I know it can be frustrating being around this much snow but it can also be very interesting. We spent last few days running around chasing snow and I got exhausted, so much that I needed 2 days to get back in the mood to edit some of these images. What do you think?
colorphoto turned in to B&W (ipiccy) then inverted and sharped
Thanks for the visit and have a nice weekend
Breezy Morning with the sound of the forest floor being dropped on. The birds compete with the squirrels for the ownership of their chosen food source. Such intriguing morning walks and enjoying the fall conversion. So much beauty with watching all the seasonal rebirth.

Old warehouses on The River Neckinger, now just a short inlet from The Thames in Bermondsey, which have been converted to luxury apartments. The cranes have been restored to indicate these buildings original purpose.
The name of the river is believed to derive from 'The Devil's Neckcloth'. A slang name for a hangman's noose as this was an execution site for pirates etc in the 17th century.

This photo was shot on a sunny but cold winter day on Kodak Gold 200 in 135 (35mm) format. It was developed and digitized at home by yours truly. This is part of my continuing quest to achieve the best results possible from film at the lowest possible investment of production time and money. I'm not there yet, but I am quite happy with the improvements so far.
Technical information:
Camera: Canon EOS 3
Lens: Canon EF 35mm f/2 IS USM
Film: Kodak Gold 200 (at ISO 160)
Developer: Bellini C-41
Digitized with a Canon EOS R5, a Sigma 105mm macro lens, the Valoi 360 film holder, the CS-Lite light source, and a copy stand made out of an old Durst enlarger.

This image was taken at Ogwen Valley, Looking out from Cwm Idwal to Pen yr Ole Wen. When I took this image, I knew it had the possibility of being a black and white, more so that colour as the patches of blue sky were quite strong. One of the aspects of black and white photography I love is being able to get that blue sky, jet black.

Yes, this is my very first pinhole photograph. I am not sure why I am so excited about something that appears to be on such an inferior quality compared to what is possible today but I am anyway. I have started pursuing black and white film again recently and now am trying to see what pinhole photography can offer.
