I was in the lakes yesterday for the first time this year. Having been rather busy with work recently I have tended to stay closer to home for my trips out with Niki (My affectionate pet name for my trusty D850) not the name of my mistress (where do people even find the time) anyway, I digress. I had a little sleep in, the first for what feels like some time, so with the lakes being a 2 hour drive away I arrived mid morning and after a little wander to the waterfalls of deepdale beck I ventured over to the shored of Derwent water. As I was driving over I noticed the sun was doing some nice things with the clouds so I took a chance on being able to capture a shot from Ishmus bay, this was my first time at this location and after a little faffing about trying to find a foreground I settled on these 3 rocks (I was hoping to shoot the stone Jetty but it was submerged after the recent rainfall).
I hope you like, as always I am open to critique and feedback.

A bit of first for me on social media, a critical comment on yesterdays post titled Croft. The comment was from a chap on Flickr who I don’t know or follow. As comments go it partly echoed my frustrations on the day of not getting more outline of the ruin in the composition. The restrictions was the terrain and only a drone would have sorted my problem, however I captured what was important to me, as it wasn’t an architectural or historical view. This didn’t stop this chap laying in with a Craig Revel Horwood critique, at best it was not abusive, at worst it was condescending, at least Horwood criticism comes from seeing the full dance, this guy had no knowledge of of how, why and where I took this photo. After a flippant response to his comment of “I must do better” he comes back with a sorry for being teacher-ish but he wishes more comments on Flickr were as helpful as his and I how I should use it to learn! I’ll let you be the judge, please feel free to look on Flickr for a laugh, my handle is flickr.com/malcbawn . Now I’ve got that of my chest the hardest thing today was choosing a photo, two Scots pine as I wandered down a fell a couple of weeks ago, it would look great in snowy conditions, that’s not meant as a criticism :-)

I don’t recall coming across a similar image like this here on Flickr, but I’ve never liked the flat dullness of the raw file so never posted any of my attempts to date. So, I uploaded the file to our WhatsApp critique group for ideas. Many versions came back… all better than my cliché square mono framed attempt. I really wanted an industrial grime look to the image and sure enough Mr Waidson duly obliged. This is my take on his rendition… and the border touch…. curiosity of Mr Eide

My second to last Poppy field shot-the one of the tree in this
field ( five photos back - not this shot ) with more room given to the sky was recently critiqued by a young lady who said she found it rather flat..
I truly do not mind critique at all and actually it is nice if someone cares enough to bother. So the acid test.. I looked through the other shots taken around the same time- difficult to forget as I thought I was in danger of being shot at the time..and found this one. The angle it was taken at was lower so showing less sky and more of the crop of Barley and the Poppies..answers on a postcard please ;-))

This is the Bed and breakfast we stayed at in Spring Lake, the White Lilac Inn, so quaint and beautiful, the owner and staff were delightful, the area so quite and peaceful, a short walk to the lakes, Ponds and the beach,
if ever considerign a quiet romantic time away I would strongly recommend this place, the breakfasts all home made were so tasty, so this is where we started and ended each day, shots of the area coming soon

A wonderful location high in the Italian Dolomites
This beautiful 14th Century Bell Tower hints at what lies beneath the surface: namely, Curon, an Italian village that was flooded by the government in 1950 to create an artificial lake.
I almost didn't make this trip but despite a late start due a 2nd dose or pesky Covid I finally Joined Rohan Reilly and a great team of people. This location was one I really hoped to be able to visit.
I chose this viewpoint as it appealed to my minimalistic taste and the weather app showed only a couple of possible snow showers so I set up my camera and then waited keeping an eye on my snow radar app, finally a bit a of a snow blizzard passed behind the tower almost hiding the distant mountains. I was very lucky as this is the image I wanted and had in my mind.

When Digital SLR Photography Magazine said they wanted to do a Critique for inclusion in the August 16 issue (not what I signed up for!) I wasn't too sure, but in the event I am very pleased to have been chosen, given that there are a plethora of images of this iconic landmark :)) The original upload is in the 1st comment box. Have a great week end everyone, and thank you for your well wishes. I'm fine now x

I wasn't going to post this picture because I had posted one very similar a few days ago, but the more I look at it the more I enjoy it. I love the lovelly golden tones the leading lines and reflections. Quite possible by best shot of the Tamar and Brunel Bridges.
If I was to critique it at all it would be that I could have spent more time on the boats but it's only a small critique.

EN DANGER CRITIQUE D'EXTINCTION / CRITICALLY ENDANGERED
Encore plus rare qu'on ne le croyait, cette espèce (dont la répartition est limitée aux endroits protégés, pour l'essentiel) a été placée en statut UICN "En danger critique d'extinction" en 2015.

Even rarer than we thought, the IUCN status of this species (considered to be restricted to protected areas) was upgraded to "Criticall endangered" in 2015.

"Monsanto” is a layered artwork that uses the fragility of paper to represent the vulnerability of human health against powerful chemical agents. As someone from St. Louis, the former home of the powerful agricultural and chemical corporation, the name 'Monsanto' resonates with a complex history of innovation and controversy - a local titan whose influence stretched globally.
The work critiques the pursuit of profit at the expense of public health and environmental integrity, serving as a stark reminder that the advancements designed to 'feed the world' can carry an untold cost. Monsanto is a lament for the unseen, a call to awareness about the chemical landscape we all navigate, whether we realize it or not."

Subject: Oh the Sweet Burden We Carry
Sometimes, as believers, we find ourselves in a lonely place. Our relationship with Jesus Christ is a “sweet burden” that we carry. Why, do I call it a sweet burden? We are surrounded by many distractions that would love to rob us of our faith. The most hurtful situations my come from those closest to us-who feel comfortable criticizing our faith or critiquing our way of life.
In our Gospel reading, Jesus has come to his native place to teach in a familiar synagogue. Jesus in his preaching was probably amongst familiar faces…who where astonished at his preaching. They are aware of his deeds of healing and wisdom. But all of this was overshadowed by their familiarity with Jesus. Is he not a carpenter? Is he not the son of Mary and do we not know many of his family members? So they took offense at him. They shut him down! “A prophet is not without honor except in his native place and among his own kin and in his own house.” Jesus was also amazed at their lack of faith. However, this did not stop Jesus and his mission to bring the Kingdom of God to the earth. His rejection by familiar faces did not cripple his journey. Jesus kept moving. We know this because we have the Gospel accounts of his life, death and resurrection.
Maybe we get discouraged because we are the sole believers in our families. Have you witnessed your grown children leave the faith? I think many have! I have seen many grandmothers over the years, taking the responsibility of insuring their grand children receive faith formation.
We carry with us the burden of what others expect from us. Sometimes those closest to us expect that we live up to what they consider the Christian way. Understandably, since we are all broken, our family and friends, will always be in a position to judge our performance, by a criteria that is stunted and juvenile. What they fail to understand is that our faith carry’s us…even with the knowledge that we too are broken…we understand that we are loved. When we fail, as we often do…we raise our heads and continue to walk with our shepherd-Jesus Christ. I am reminded of a scripture where Paul says in Romans 5:
1.Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Through him we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in our hope of sharing the glory of God. 3 More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5 and hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Because we are believers in Christ, we use him as our model and we do not need to apologize for our chosen journey . The path we have chosen is difficult! We take up our own crosses with courage…a sweet burden it is…and move forward in time knowing that our reward is a “peace beyond understanding”and a hope to see the world through our saviors eyes. Our first and second scripture readings, give us assurance that the followers of God, will always be challenged by unbelievers. The struggles we face to live out our faith collectively contribute to the on going and larger story we call salvation history.
Every Mass we come together, carrying our faith deep within our hearts…knowing full well that we are going to be fed and healed by the bread of life. When Mass ends, we carry Christ through the doors, where we will encounter others that are waiting to encounter Christ in us…may we live up to what Jesus expects from his disciples.
Savernake Forest | Marlborough | Wiltshire
[EXPLORED] 25th October #56: I am really pleased to have this image included in EXPLORE (My 6th EXPLORE to-date). Thanks for all the faves and nice comments. I really appreciate the support and welcome any constructive critique, while I continue to grow and develop my skills as a landscape photographer.
I went on a lovely walk around Savernake Forest this afternoon with my family. Autumn is most certainly upon us. I love this time of year, with the stunning colours nature dishes up for us.
Taking The Shot:
Hand-held using auto-ISO. I'm really impressed with how the D610 handles high ISOs! Barely any visible noise, even when zoomed right in!
Background:
Savernake Forest is a surviving remnant of one of Wiltshire's ancient 'Royal Forests' much beloved by Norman kings. Today the forest is leased to the Forestry Commission and access is via many paths and tracks. It remains a place of mystery and imagination and an important habitat for a number of wild birds, plants and animals.
