Kestrel's are notoriously difficult to get close to. Even those on wires usually take off if the car stops, let alone if a door opens. I was wandering around Belle Glade (agricultural land) when this male kestrel flew up over a building in pursuit of a red-shouldered hawk that had wandered into the kestrel's territory. I managed to get off a few shots in the second or two he was visible. The male kestrel is recognized by its bright orange/brown tail, and blue/gray wing feathers. For whatever reason, I see a lot more females than males and was excited when I managed to photograph this one. (American Kestrer - Falco sparverius)

This is an image of wild flowers in brass thimble. This was definately the most difficult assignment so far. I looked like a micro-surgeon, operating on small bouquet: converging lens was above bouquet, in my left hand was a pincette, in my right hand was pair of scissors. Also, I had to work very quickly as wild flowers wilt within fifteen minutes. I've worked on this for two days in order to be ready for the big shoot; I've practiced the speed so I could do it quickly and in enough time. At the end I've managed to capture these small wild flowers in a thimble as I've imagined it.
I wish you a lot of years of succesful work and thank you all for helping me learn so much about macro photography.
HBMM!
As always, thank you so much for your visits, comments and faves!

Rather a difficult challenge to make a macro of a calendar ... we have a large wall one, small one-day-a-page ones, and everything else is digital! So I decided to play around with a sheet of the 2021 months ... and ended up with a 3cm cube. ;o)

Difficult not to take a photo of this fine building when the light is shining on it. And the rendering and sharpness from the Flexaret is wonderful.

Looking back to Wainman's Pinnacle, reveals the difficult terrain this memorial is located in. Stunning Panoramic views from this vantage point.
This Osprey is hauling a large fish it has just caught; it must be difficult to fly with. Scene captured from the floodwall along the James River in Richmond, Virginia.
Street shooting in Wellington - confirming that it is the most difficult of genres. I will never feel at ease with it (but this one appealed to my odd mind)
Difficult to capture the grandeur of this street in one photo...got some odd looks while trying...
really needs a tilt/shift...no matter how i try i cannot get those verticals right. still...i liked the colours. will try again next time i visit
Gracias a todos por vuestra visita, amables comentarios y fav/ Thank you all for your visit, kind comments and fav
I know it's difficult... ;P
He's been curled up...mostly completely under all the covers, since 7am.
I was folding laundry all morning, and doing chores, and he just stayed there.
I don't think he's very fond of cold, wet weather. He was sitting by the floor
heat vents this morning, when I invited him up on the couch - he likes :)
Medium Egret (Ardea intermedia) - 20240325-04
Medium Egret: A stocky egret that is larger than Eastern Cattle and Little Egrets, but smaller than the Great Egret. Often confusing and difficult to identify, this bird is truly intermediate between potential confusion species. Things to look for include a yellow bill that is shorter than Great Egret but longer than Eastern Cattle Egret, a relatively rounded head, and shorter legs than Great Egret, approaching Eastern Cattle Egret. Like most egret species, associates with all types of water bodies including wet fields, often flocking with other egrets.
Great Egret: Large, lanky, long-necked white heron. Size and black legs help separate from other egrets. Widespread and fairly common across the globe. Bill color varies across range: always yellow in the Americas, black in breeding season elsewhere. Occurs in any shallow wetland, including ponds, marshes, and tidal mudflats. Slowly stalks prey in shallow water. Often seen singly, but sometimes gathers in large numbers where food is plentiful. Breeds in colonies, frequently mixed with other egrets and herons. (eBird)

Almost the first bird that we saw when we got to the wetland was the Medium Egret (here pictured with a Great Egret), a rare vagrant to Dubai! Thrilled to get this photo of the two passing each other, clearly demonstrating the massive size difference between the two. Both birds occur regularly in Singapore, so I had spent the previous week trying to differentiate them when seeing them from a distance.
Ras al-Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, Dubai, UAE. March 2024.
Medium-sized woodpecker with bold black-and-white barring on back and a cream-colored belly. A patch of yellow on the lower belly can be difficult to see. Male has red crown and yellow nape. Female lacks red crown.
It is always difficult to focus on a main subject and make the background blurry. If we use big aperture or small F number. The subject will not be completely in focus. That is why we use the focus stuck and combine at least five pictures together. The sun in the background creates special bokeh effect, and the lens type and post processing software create circular effect. I want to have better pictures, but it takes time and effort. Have a wonderful weekend.
A difficult falls to get to, but definitely worth the scramble :)

This image was captured in the Cenote in the Panranal, Brazil. Cenote is a sink hole and this particular one is quite large . Leaving a body of water at the bottom and red cliffs around the circumference. It is an amazing sight and to see flocks of red and green macaws fly in is breathtakingly beautiful. This one was was trying to land on the sides of the cliff but it is not always easy for them to find a safe spot. A wonderful place with wonderful memories.
Wishing you a blessed and beautiful Friday !!!!!!!!

A difficult bird to photograph, as it lives in dense forests and is very restless...

Difficult series to be photographed, as they are restless and tiny they blend in with the leaves and branches, and remained high up in the trees in a backlight. But anyway, these little creatures, good or bad, were clicked and are wonderful!
Série difícil de ser fotografada, pois eles são inquietos e minúsculos confundem-se com as folhas e galhos, e permaneceram bem no alto das árvores em um contra luz. Mas enfim, essas criaturinhas bem ou mal, foram clicadas e são maravilhosas!

The walled city of Morella, Spain, yet another one of those hidden gems of Europe that very few people know about, it's pretty much off the beaten track but not difficult to reach.

ribbons ... A theme that took me quite some time to work out! More difficult than I thought. Here is my best attempt, looking forward to your feedback.
It's difficult to say we've owned cats. Cat's are such a free spirited animal. Seems as if they have taken a place to grace our families for a period in time. We will always remember them and the bond that we've shared!
”Pareidolia"😄
Quite a difficult task this week, as it is impossible to shoot for a pareidolia image on comand !
However, while taking water droplets in a metal sink, I could detect a "Frightening Grimace" which was much smaller than a fingernail
Thanks to my friend Charles who detected a second face which shows the profile of a little brown bear ! I must have overseen that due to the sight on the shocking grimace ....
[Dedicated to CRA (ILYWAMHASAM)]
Uploaded the Grimace for the groups

The most difficult action shot in my series was this oncoming sprint towards me. Not having eye autofocus and a slow fps I knew this shot would require some luck and concentration. The final outcome was 2 acceptable shots in this challenging situation. Click for large view.
Common Frog, difficult to single out at this time of Year. One of hundreds present, in a pond in Norfolk. Taken with a long lens to avoid a disturbance.
One of the more difficult photos I've ever had to process as it's actually a blend of three shots of differing brightness of the setting moon and Milky Way taken just after 3am at the Pinnacles, a wonderfully weird formation of limestone pillars a couple of hundred kilometres north of Perth in Western Australia.
Directly above the setting moon you can see a horizontal Milky Way and the constellation of Sagittarius. The two brightest stars directly above the central pinnacle are Nunki and Ascella. The brightest star in Sagittarius is actually Kaus Australis but because it's lower in the sky than the other two (to the left of the pinnacle), it almost seems less luminous. Further to the left of the pinnacle is the constellation of Scorpius.
The brightest star on the right hand side is Altair in the constellation of Aquila (the 12th brightest star in the night sky).
