Une vision du tourisme de masse... Un Soir d’août comme les autres sur la caldeira de Santorin... La ville de Fira au sommet des 300m de la falaise semble assiégée par les énormes paquebots de croisière. A une toute autre échelle le Caïque au premier plan apparaît minuscule...

I did not take this capture of me, I gave my camera to my daughter Katy, and showed her what to do, and this is the result. Which I am very pleased to be holding my Grandson Alfie, and thanking my dear daughter, for not dropping my camera!
Now you can see me, in full-frame of what this Freaked Out photographer, looks like here, thanks to my daughter. I am now nearly 68 years old and well pleased for my daughter Katy and Michael (Son-in-Law soon to be) of their firstborn child, that weighed in at 8 lb 2 ozs at birth.
I did wear a face mask, when holding my Grandson. But my daughter, for this capture, told me, to take it off!
Now be looking forward in the next few months to come, of taking cool captures of Alfie, when he, his more active and moving about for them!
A baby is born with a need to be loved, and never, never outgrows it.

When I took this capture at an overlook that showed the Icefields Parkway there in Banff / Jasper ... I thought this would be a cool capture to apply a bit of tilt-shift effect to.
An amazing highway and drive, and one that I highly recommend if you have not done it.
*NOT the best image, but still a cool capture - (Holcosus festivus) - Also known as the Central American whiptail, and the tiger ameiva.

My camera saw more than I could see at the time. It was almost dusk and I was very far. So I don't know what that thing is on the upper right. It may have been a bug....:)
This is another cool capture from the south of France, i took this in a small village inland, it stood on a massive hill and the houses had beautiful architecture! (Don’t worry i edited the number plate of the car 👍)
The low fog is picking up light from the not too distant interstate 80 freeway here. Very cool capture.
Emeryville, CA
While I'm waiting out this cold for enough energy to go out I decided to share this fun image. This was taken while looking for the Lapland Longspur at Hayward Shoreline Park last year...I looked up and spotted this Osprey carrying a fish when I snapped it a plane was flying by. Heavily cropped, but I thought this was a pretty 'cool capture'.
Photographers are often asked if we have any good pictures from a day of shooting...and the response is usually...I will wait til I see what turns up on the computer! Kind of a cool capture of this heron's shadow on its wing...

This is a stunning shot I snagged of the female Green Lynx (Peucetia viridans) spider that's being pursued by my pal. I'm sharing it mostly because I think it's a cool capture, but I have some potentially bitter-sweet news that's not pictured here.
As I went through my Darktable queue, I noticed this gorgeous gal was getting rather plump, a sure sign she may be gravid. This is good, because my favorite friend was the last lad I saw near her spot of choice! So, I went out to grab a photo of the dashing dad, and that's where the bitter part comes in.
He's gone. I'm not sure if he was harmed in the aftermath, or if he successfully pulled off the old Irish exit, but his friendly face was nowhere to be seen. As if to show the seriousness of the situation, I was also unable to spot the female at first.
She's relocated to the ragweed (genus Ambrosia) behind the plant, and has begun sheeting a leaf with silken strands. I'll almost definitely have the situation I was hoping for, but without my "pet" to be proud of.
While it makes me a little sad, this all but assures that my sanctuary will be simply stuffed with these stunning spiders next spring! Even better, there's a rather large chance that they are the direct descendants of my departed dude.
I haven't fully given up on him, though. He's a smart sucker, and he's survived everything from storms to sparrows! If he shows up in the morning I'll be sure to share, but the odds aren't in his favor. I'll leave you with a quote from a rather smooth smuggler, though.
"Never tell me the odds!"
This shot was captured around 1:1.2ish by my Venus Laowa 60mm f2.8 Super Macro. This photo is uncropped. This femme fatale (maybe for real this time!) is around 12mm, with a legspan of over 28mm!

"Cool capture and a perfect title! Nice artistic look to the image." (Christy PADGETT / www.flickr.com/photos/162976396@N03/)
"Great action scene. Is it fair to let someone so experienced play ? She may be taking all their money in the bets." (Elliot MARGOLIES / www.flickr.com/photos/elliotmar/)
As the ice starts melting, the heat starts taking back its Summer beaches. Although it still has a long way to go considering all the sand is like tundra. I was strolling along Fullerton beach looking for interesting angles with the skyline in the back, and wanted to keep the morning glow with the beautiful clouds in the background. I found some interesting ice banks, but couldn't quite get that compositional feeling when you're like "OH YEAH!!!". Unsatisfied, I continued walking and found this. At first it looked surreal, these weird mushroom like structures jutting out of the lake. I searched for a good angle to frame the photo and felt this was the best, even though I wish I could have gotten closer but the ice was super slippery and one wrong move and there goes loads of money down the icy toilet. I really liked this photo most because it emphasizes the weather torn wooden gate that is gnarled up, and also shows the unrelenting waves crashing into it and spilling through, and to the side of the gate. And my favorite part is the sunlight wrapping around each piece of ice. A very cool capture for a fun and surreal winter scene of Chicago.

I'm talking about the one in the middle above the dock. Does it look like a giant white worm with a big brown head and a headlamp on it? Never mind...
The beautiful dock at Storm King Ranger Station, Lake Crescent. A bit of aurora glow from Vancouver Island direction with the north ends of the milky way. THAT white worm is some low clouds/fog with a big trailer as it's head. Pretty cool captured those light rays from the head lights! I was parked right beside the dock shooting time lapse til' next morning and fell asleep before sunrise... Lucky the people who unload their boat into the water was trying to be careful as my camera was right beside the car when they unloading it. Or didn't just took my camera...
Thank you for viewing! Any comments or sharing are greatly appreciated!!
Have a great day/night!!
Sticking around for several hours and watching a lot of fishing and interaction all along the river ... when you get a situation where the action comes in close, the lighting is perfect ... and you can track and not lose focus ... all I can say is WOW ... what an experience. Making it all worth standing out in the cold down along the river on the rocks.
With the camera snapping away at 10 frames per second, I came away with a lot of cool captures of this close in action.
This is cropped only just by 5% to tighten the composition just a bit.

Happy birding 🐾
My brother took me to this area which I had never been to before. Kittatinny Valley State Park is in Andover, NJ. I thought this was a cool capture with all the cattails.
Not 100% sure, but I think this cool capture is from a 1937 Chrysler Airflow. I love the patina effect with age it presents.
I spent some time below Kentucky Dam watching anywhere between 15 and 20 osprey catching a variety of live and dead fish. I'm pretty sure this one was a floater, but it's still a pretty cool capture. Both for me and for the fish.
These are nothing more than the light and shadow patterns formed on the wall of our new condo when the morning sun hits an art glass bowl sitting on a table.
Just thought they were cool ... captured with the 5D3.

This is an older photo from many years ago. My children, my father and I were spending a day at Indian Branch Park-Campground. This child was playing on the playground with my children. I took a picture of him coming down the slide, I thought it looked cool (captured his silhouette). I've always liked this photo!
