Vale of Porlock, Exmoor, bathed in dappled Autumn light today. A stitch of 2 images horizontally as only had the kit lens, given the stormy winds & rain. (f/9, 45 mm, 1/100th sec at ISO 100).

Beyond the post processing reality and into the surreal realm...art via software manipulation
Taken in the early morning sunshine, in Suffolk. Very messy image but that’s often the case with the Bittern skulking about in the reeds. An archive image, not previously posted
This male cheetah is a wild animal, but he does not live in the wild. I captured this portrait of one of two brothers in the Cologne Zoo on a warm and sunny day.

Thank you for visiting and your kind comments, group awards and faves - I appreciate them all 🐆
My roses are in full bloom I'm delighted to say and this one is called 'Rhapsody in Blue'. It was a gift from friends a few years ago.
I particularly love it because the flower changes colour at every stage of its life ... starting off with buds of deep magenta, through purple , and finally into a lilac/grey as it fades.
From the highest point of The Lady’s Walk the woodland drops steeply,
I like to scramble down amid the jumble of trees to get photographs of the bluebells.
Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. ~Søren Kierkegaard
we were all on that s&p theme for a while recently, so i thought i'd really get wild and crazy, and shoot some parm & pepper flakes for y'all. : P
taken at the secret stash.

Don't see Mother raccoon out during the day often; only when she needs food so she can return to the babies and be able to feed them. When the young ones were old enough to venture out, I saw she had been caring for 4 babies. No wonder she looked so ragged!
Taken in the beautiful Provençal village of Tourtour. With added texture (again!). Spot the two artists/painters to the right of the photo. I particularly like the dappled light which has shown up in one or two of my photos over the past months
After more than a week of a blanket of grey cloud overhead we finally got sunshine in the morning. This was taken on my walk with Ross in Captains Wood this morning.
Even when the Autumn leaves are dried and ready to fall they still have a certain beauty...Shot with the Helios 44M in very low light.
Walking through this woodland garden along the walkway of enchantment I find my mind wandering just soaking up all that beauty before me ........ and as the sunlight dances through the trees and the sweet heady fragrance of the wild garlic fills the air I feel like I must be in a dream.
Pencarrow, whose name in Cornish means “head of the valley” or “high fort”, lies at the foot of a sweeping valley between Bodmin and Wadebridge in Cornwall. The largely Georgian mansion is still owned and occupied by descendants of the family who settled there in the 1500s.
Pencarrow’s gardens are a combination of formal landscaping and woodland walks. The gardens were designed and laid out between 1831-55 by Sir William Molesworth, together with his head gardener, Thomas Corbett. Much of their collection came from botanical explorers.
After the Snowdrop Sundays in February, Pencarrow’s floral season begins in March with a dazzling display of camellias and rhododendrons (more than 600 varieties in total) which bloom through the spring. Bluebells and Wild Garlic carpet the woods in May/June; the Memorial Garden provides a summer display, followed by hydrangeas and fuchsias into the autumn.
