Looking north from the summit of Avalanche Peak, New Zealand. Mt. Rolleston at top center, deep canyons below to the left and right. We went up the very steep Avalanche Track (easier going up than down, partly due to occasional rock climbing in the lower part), and down the Scott Track. Both routes were awesome! Good weather like this really helps.
The orange-brown color is moss, which grows, and stabilizes the ground, wherever the ground is stable. This makes a two-phase or biphasic system--either scree slope or consolidated ground. Nature is amazing.
Along Joey's Lane, near Sheepstor Village in the Dartmoor National Park.
Joey's Lane is an old packhorse route which runs near the base of Sheeps Tor, starting near Sheepstor Village
Young eastern grey kangaroo takes a pensive break under the casuarinas at David Fleay Wildlife Park on the Queensland Gold Coast.
Taken a few years ago - re-edited and converted to mono with a sepia tone.
Figures 'almost' silhouetted.
When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy,
And the dimpling stream runs laughing by;
When the air does laugh with our merry wit,
And the green hill laughs with the noise of it.

Wood Horsetails in Risveden, Sweden (Slerboåns dalgång Nature reserve). This highly mossy part of the forest had many groupings of this beautiful plant.
The mobility scooter is a lovely shade of red so it was a bit of a struggle for me decide whether to leave the photo in colour or to convert to B&W but now that I've done it I think the overall photo looks much better in B&W. It was a gorgeous early evening and I loved the way the dappled sun played out on the scene.
I may be a bit slow in responding to any comments that might come my way as I've been unwell since last weekend and I'm still not up to par.
I hope you all have wonderful weekends.
Well, officially it is Balmacaan Wood but the Bluebells were approaching their 'peak' a week or so ago and I was drawn to this beautiful view on the edge of the woods.
There had been some rain and I struggled to get a balance between the shadows and bright spots in the scene. Use of a polariser to overcome the reflection from the droplets and a touch of negative exposure compensation seemed to help.

In New Zealand, from atop Rocky Mountain, near Wanaka. The high snowy peak on the horizon is Mt. Aspiring (9951 ft). A strip of green marks some pastureland. The big cliff above it and to the left has a massive landslip, reaching all the way to the top. Perhaps a large-scale version of the Ferguson Slide in the Merced River Canyon west of Yosemite.
Sometimes the views are just much better in the air! I am always fascinated by the landscape in the air. The perspective completely changes. Last month I had the opportunity again to fly over the Highlands in Iceland. The landscape here is incredible with its various textures and colors. I'm still in awe of the beauty of this area. The conditions were just right with the diffused and dappled light dancing through the mountains. Such an amazing experience!

Willow Emerald Damselfly / chalcolestes viridis. Strumpshaw Fen, Norfolk. 17/08/16.
Technically, this image leaves a lot to be desired I know!
Shown 'as seen', it serves as a record of a wonderful day spent with dragons and damsels at Strumpshaw Fen.
This is how I saw so many WED's there.
Perched unobtrusively in dappled shade, their spread wings twinkled when the sun caught them fleetingly. The pale creamy-brown wing spots showed very obviously and often gave their presence away.
I like the ethereal quality of this image. It is one that is firmly embedded in my memory.
Ein stiller Waldweg schlängelt sich durch das satte Grün eines Sommerwaldes. Sonnenstrahlen brechen durch das Blätterdach und tauchen den Weg in ein Spiel aus Licht und Schatten – ein Ort der Ruhe und Einkehr mitten in der Natur.
A quiet forest path winds through the lush greenery of a summer woodland. Sunlight filters through the canopy, painting the trail with a play of light and shadow – a peaceful retreat in the heart of nature.

As the direction of travel at the gardens was diverted onto the path from the Desert Rose Garden to Heritage Farm, I came across this great old weathered bench.
Many times have this bench and I done the photographic dance.
Most of those times I missed focus on the portions I wanted to catch.
I already had the X-T1 and Helios lens on the tripod. I had the tripod mostly leaning against the fence.
By this hour lots of folks were passing by, all walking toward the bench. Eventually there was enough time to have the camera bracket shots. Feeling in the way and vulnerable, I didn't even chimp to see what I had gotten.
Without a doubt, I got lucky here.
Happy Loosening Restrictions Bench Monday!
The many colors, layers and textures of the Grand Canyon are enhanced by the afternoon's dappled light.
The magnificent Grand Canyon National Park is located in northern Arizona and was formed over millions of years by the Colorado River. The canyon is more than 200 miles long 12 miles wide and a mile deep. The national park is visited by about 5 million people a year.
To me the colors and view of the canyon change with the season, time of day and of course clouds. This photo was taken during the late winter when the visiting crowds are almost non-existent. It almost feels strange. I've had the experience of going to one of the overlooks and being the only one there.

I hiked along the Appalachian Trail last year and again this year looking for a nice composition of the rhododendron flowers and it never happened. The flaming azaleas in this shot aren't all bad....... are they? I don't like "get off the bus" shots so I hike to find something a bit different.
I hope you enjoy....... I brewed a cup of coffee at this spot and waited for the light to be to my liking. There is nothing like enjoying a cup of coffee with this view!
