Im Spätherbst fuhr ich bereits schon einmal diesen Weg durch Thüringen. Es war damals ein trüber Morgen. Heute war ich kurz vor dem Sonnenuntergang unterwegs...
Überwältigt vom Unterschied, den lediglich ein paar Sonnenstrahlen und ein imposanter Himmel machen können, muss ich euch hier noch mal beide Bilder zeigen!

Earlier this year Grocery Outlets had umbrella stands for about $18 and I bought a few, for my house and my daughters at the lake. I have great fun in finding different perches and positioning them to create different bokehs...this one being against the hill with brown grasses and oak trees. I can sit here for hours at a time as the birds come to the feeders. When this one male finally landed on this carefully placed perch and started looking around, it was fun to see 'what a difference' a turn of the head could make!
November 1981. What a difference the change in light makes. This was taken the same morning as the last photo, but when the blue sky had nearly all gone and only a gap remained for the sun to shine through. It looks so much richer in colour. I do prefer this one.
(I checked the colour temperature of the copies and they are exactly the same.)

The more I explore the 55mm f1.4 range of lenses more they look alike. Small differences and tweaking of the same design that is very similar to Zeiss Planar 55mm for Contarex cameras, create similar photos.
Curiously, this lens flares like Tomioka (Yashinon) lenses.
Some of you will remember me making this 3 ton excavator last year. A few weeks ago I called to see my friends at Clem Jacob Hire so I brought the bucket of the 90 ton excavator with me to show them the difference. It got a few laughs I can tell you. 😂
With a glimpse of sunlight during mostly cloudy skies, M513-05 charges through Trenton. With BNSF 719 doing the honors, BNSF 719 wears the “Fakebonnet” paint scheme. The fakebonnet paint scheme replicates the classic Sante Fe warbonnet scheme, with the only difference being the BNSF patch on the sides of the locomotive.
A couple of local jobs switching around Pomona Yard, both sporting former N&W SD40-2s, pause beside each other for a moment, allowing one to see the distinct differences that time has brought to these sister engines.
“No one ever made a difference by being like everyone else”.
Some images just have an emotional impact… more than others?
This one, the moment I saw it in the perfect light, when I photographed it, when I first laid eyes on it, aaah the thrill!
I can’t begin to tell you how it feels.
I always keep these a little longer before I publish them, keep them close for awhile.
Now I am ready to share it.
Hope you like it, thank you and have a happy day, Magda, (*_*)

Phrygilus patagonicus
We were struggling to determine the differences between the Grey-hooded and Patagonian Sierra-Finches, but as is often the case, when you see the 'other' species, it is pretty obvious - it is just that Grey-hooded is far commoner and more widespread !
The rich colouration on the underparts is almost total on this bird, and the area of white is restricted to the undertail - on Grey-hooded, much of the belly is white....
The upperpart colouration is much richer too.
I know this picture is quite simular to the last one, but it is from the same series- I hopethis isn´t any problem and you will like this picture anywaaaays :-)
Meet me on facebook!
The same spot on the Eldred river with high water flows, shutter speeds of 1/20 and 1/640 of a second.
without branch - this was kindly done by a fellow flickerite - who has photoshop - the magic wand of the photo world. It makes a difference don't you think?
All thanks to Greg fellow flickrite of GBurwash - he's the man with the photoshop - and the skill of course - Thanks Greg. Diolch
Just messing about with some filters on my phone, I was taken by how different this scene at Stoney Clouds looked with brighter colours and thought it would be interesting seeing them together!
Every color,
every perspective,
every triumph,
every defeat,
every me,
and every you —
lies in the mirrors
of this kaleidoscope.

Feel free to criticize or just comment.
I’m not a hardcore birder, I shoot only when both the opportunity and mood arise simultaneously, both of which does not happen very often.
I remember feeling challenged shooting this bird and as such it was a great experience.
1. Tiny bird, smaller even than the common Kingfisher but way more colourful.
2. This being a Forest Kingfisher, it’s always in the thicket, never in the open. Had to shoot at very low shutter speed hoping to catch it in between twitches just to keep ISO low enough to preserve details. Being as dim as it was, had to also boost up the EV to avoid having to do any shadow recovery.
3. 600mm even on APS-C crop was barely sufficient.
4. Trying to squeeze out as much details as possible. Used normal wireless release via OVF; MUP+EFC; Live-view, none made any consistent and significant difference. This was where I got a little mad at Nikon’s useless implementation of EFC on the D500, even more useless than the auto AF fine-tune feature. What’s the point of putting in features that don’t really work!? EFC in Live-view would have helped but infuriatingly, you can activate EFC in Live-view yet you can’t use EFC in Live-view, get your act together Nikon!
5. Getting the right pose with the beak pointing sideways and preferably upwards for the slightly haughty look plus some catch-light in the eye.
An experience to remember. a most beautiful bird, its red feathers extend down the centre back of its head to the collar in a narrowing ridge looking like its beak with the dark blue patches on each side of this ridge giving it the appearance of having eyes and beak at the back of its head! This is likely a defensive marking. Especially interesting when the Micronesia Kingfisher became extinct in the wild due to introduced brown tree snake sneaking up on it from behind while the bird was totally focused ahead and below as kingfishers normally do.
Shooting very small birds is always challenging as conditions constantly change with the subject constantly on the move while you aim for that perfect pose which can disappear in a twitch.
I toyed with the idea of getting the Sony a99ii with A-mount Tamron 150-600mm G2 after this but gave it up eventually. It’s not feasible to shoot with so many different systems.
Shot on tripod at 1/15s!
Uploaded a much better image (albeit cropped) with my latest post processing workflow.
Frame - Simon's (midnight raven) idea! Makes all the difference.
Thanks Simon for your creative input.
Waterfoot
On Wednesday morning I cut a hole out in the wall, we then threaded the beam through the hole, and propped it. I then dropped the doorway opening; and I took out the fireplace in the background.
Of course the bricks that were taken out needed stacking (ready for cleaning, and re-use). The debris needed taking down the stairs to the skip outside. This is the first floor of the building.
On Thursday morning I straightened up the sides of the door opening, ready to take the lintels next week. I can then wall up above the lintels, remove the beam and take out the props.
I started to wall up the fireplace opening in the background too.

Two posts today from the vault of an immature eagle. The previous post is a 3rd winter eagle and this is a 4th winter eagle. If you notice the head feathers on this eagle are mostly white with a few darker feathers and the beak is yellow. This winter if I could see this one again all the feathers would be white and would be a adult probably paired with a mate. Check the next photo to see the difference.
Happy Tree mendous Tuesday
Thank you for taken your time to visit me, comments or faves are always much appreciated!

Home World: Courscant underworld
Age: 17
Species: Human
Class: Trooper
Faction: Empire
Sabri grew up as an orphan, in the slums of Courscant. She had a rough childhood. With nearly nothing to eat, she almost died of hunger. She was beat up everyday, and to have a warm meal, she had to complete bounties. At the age of 15, she joined the Empire. They promised that they would have maximum security around the entire galaxy. Sabri believes that the Empire will make a difference, so other orphans wouldn't have to have the same childhood as her.
Hey there! This scene took so long to create. On the left of the image, you notice there is a hole at the end. That's because I needed to rush the final part, to avoid losing my member role for the 3rd time. Anyways, happy belated Chirstmas, and enjoy the rest of the holiday!
Monke out.
