When we were last in Kamloops, BC, I drove past various fields that were about to be plowed. The next day, it occurred to me that there might be an opportunity to capture those who work the fields as well. Sure enough, upon my return, one was out harvesting his crops.
I remember thinking that the lines in the field would make an interesting arial shot. To compensate, I stood high to show some, but instead placed my attention on their direction. When the tractor entered the shot with its kick of dust, the shot was complete.

The “line_up“ is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The “liners” are made out of paper (Din A3/A4),
oil paint and graphite. The theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers.

I guess it may depend in which direction you are driving over it but it always seems to go on forever.
A contextual shot for the previous two shots. This is the same structure as the previous shot, but from the other side, and also is the same location as the Industrial foreshore shot, but looking about 90 degrees clockwise.

The second image from my session with a beautiful blue-gray gnatcatcher. These birds are tiny and often stay hidden in the foliage, constantly moving. I've found that with these types of birds, which avoid the top perches of trees, it's always beneficial to play the waiting game once you hear them and confirm their approximate location. Staying still and waiting for them to get used to your presence makes sense. Once they are comfortable, they will go about their usual business of frantic movements through the tree branches. Initially, I used to follow them through my viewfinder, but I had better luck finding the direction in which they were moving and then aiming my lens at a bare patch of the branch and waiting for them to come by.

Churches in England are often aligned in a specific direction, typically with the altar at the east end and the main entrance at the west end, a practice known as orientation.
All Saint's church Walcott in the foreground aligned with St Mary's Church in Happisburgh some 2km distant.

Photographing the cranes and geese from the north-south walking path is aided by the east rising morning sun on your back as you photograph to the west. On the other side of the path there is no such easy shot… but here is a Say’s Phoebe flitting about grabbing insects out of the sky not 20 yards (18.3 m) away. She lands on a branch and I turn to shoot… the low sun is blazing directly into my eyes and the lens as I hopefully get the -EV (or should it be +EV) right and focus. I can’t see the tracking box or eye box; I hope for the best… It takes five full minutes for me to get my sight returned trying to shoot cranes in the opposite direction… oh, woe’s me! First World problems!! (PS: that’s not a hair; it’s part of breakfast)
