One of my early photographs which helped to get me into photography.

A rather turbulent looking and somewhat elongated cloud, skirts the surface of the ocean and touches the crest of Pender Island. Above and behind, the swift moving higher clouds also reveal a warm light. Just another pleasant day in Sechelt with some new discoveries including a lone duck.

NEW #PHOTO

K.Marinović - The Discovery

 

Hello #friends, here is my new shot called "The Discovery". It was taken at the same spot as my previous one, "Running To The Sun". It´s not very often that I upload a photo in color, but when I do, it´s usually a photo of a sunset because the colors are absolutely gorgeous at that time and it would be a shame to convert the photo in B&W. Taken with Tokina 12-24mm, edited in Lightroom and GIMP.

 

Have a lovely night!

 

This colourful ceramic mosaic by local artist Peter Alting was dedicated in 1994. If you enlarge this photograph you can see how well he has crafted the ceramic pieces providing "Layers of Discovery" for the local region.

A weekend stroll through the woods of the Parkville Nature Sanctuary. It was getting a bit late in the evening. The heat and humidity has been brutal around these parts forcing me to wait even longer to venture out. The great thing about photography is that you can walk the same path countless times, but by changing your focus you can see it a new light. Discovery.

We’re on a mini-trip for a few days. Wesley here at the West Point Lighthouse at Discovery Park in Seattle.

When I went out in the late afternoon, foggy light, I didn't expect to discover a flower still thriving in spite of very cold weather.

Baby steps with the M8...

I’m trawling the archives trying to delete some of the 28k images in LR but keep getting held up editing old ones. This is from the last ice festival in Lake Louise since the pandemic…..hoping it comes back in 2024. It’s by Team Japan, Junichi Nakamura and Shinichi Sawamura.

#Week 27: Discovery

 

Seaside rock pools host a variety of smaller animals and plants just waiting to be discovered during coastal rambles. These Zebra Snails are making their own discoveries as they wander around a pool at Merewether, Newcastle.

It’s like you’re homesick

For a place that doesn’t even exist.

 

This is the new Discovery building in Sandton, Johannesburg. It feels like it was only a few weeks ago that I shot some pictures of the building under construction, which, if you care to look, you can see here, here, and here.

Understanding my roll.

 

When our first grandchild was born, my son’s family was stationed at NAS Pax River Maryland. We made the drive from Indiana to Maryland as often as possible and they the reverse. August was a beautiful baby boy who looked and acted like every other baby…like a little humanoid who had lots of intake and the smelliest of outgo. When it comes to babies…until they are old enough and can be responsible for their own head and neck, well let’s just say that holding one makes me as nervous as being wrapped up like a mummy utilizing live Boa constrictors! Scratch that as it is an exaggeration…I would prefer the boa’s!

 

I do not remember his exact age but I would guess it was around a year and a half old and they were in town for a visit. It was a beautiful spring/summer day and August and I were walking around the front yard, just exploring and enjoying time together. As we walked hand in hand, we came upon a bush. I have no idea what type of bush it was, even though it was part of our landscaping. It was both yellow and green, the type that looked a bit sharp but wasn’t.

 

We stopped and were looking at the bush when August without a word spoken looked up into my eyes. Instantly I knew his question and I said “You can touch it.” He gently reached out and started feeling the texture of a single branch, and smiled. It was at that exact moment, as if hit by lightning, that I felt like a grandfather for the first time…accepting responsibility for one of my roles in his life, to assist with discovery.

 

Fast forward seven years and I am at Custer SP photographing bison when I notice this little one. Its nose was inches from the ground and a few feet away from a lone blue flower. It moved from side to side, eyed fixed on the flower as if it was wondering what it was…a bit curious, a bit hesitant. A few seconds passed before it worked up the courage to approach the flower. When it bowed down to ascertain its fragrance, I took this photo.

 

Watching this bison reminded me of the thrill, the absolute blessing of discovery…making this shot a personal favorite from this trip!

Sandton - Johannesburg, South Africa

I generally don't post travel shots but I had the opportunity to visit the Smithsonian air museum outside of Washington DC recently as part of my brother's 40th. The highlight of the trip (although there were many) was by far seeing this amazing piece of engineering and history in person. I don't tend to take museum shots, but I simply couldn't resist this one. Standing beside this feat makes all of my problems seem so small when you think about the fact that we are lucky to be floating on a rock in the unlimited cosmos.

 

This is a panorama - of 8 Full Frame A7rIII shots - talk about making my computer sweat when merging. That is why there are few angles that aren't "perfect" with this image, but I still love how it came out.

Discovery Point, Dundee

 

A.I.- Generated Article:

 

The RRS Discovery is a barque-rigged auxiliary steamship built in Dundee, Scotland for Antarctic research. Launched in 1901, she was the last traditional wooden three-masted ship to be built in the United Kingdom. Her first mission was the British National Antarctic Expedition, carrying Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Shackleton on their first, and highly successful, journey to the Antarctic, known as the Discovery Expedition.

 

After service as a merchant ship before and during the First World War, Discovery was taken into the service of the British government in 1923 to carry out scientific research in the Southern Ocean, becoming the first Royal Research Ship. The ship undertook a two-year expedition – the Discovery Investigations – recording valuable information on the oceans, marine life and being the first scientific investigation into whale populations.

 

On her return from the BANZARE (British Australian and New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition), Discovery was moored in London as a static training ship and visitor attraction until 1979. That year she was placed in the care of the Maritime Trust as a museum ship. In 1986 she was moved to Dundee, the city where she was built. After an extensive restoration, Discovery is now the centrepiece of a visitor attraction in the city.

In a founding document about the Riverdale Center, Thomas wrote: Our method of study is principally the cultural-historical method. We wish to establish an awareness of human spiritual development. Back of the human venture, however, there is the living process of the Earth itself. Thus we wish to associate our work with the study of the Earth, with the emergence of life, the appearance of humans, the cultural formation of traditional societies, with the recent scientific-technological revolution in human affairs, and with the ecological equilibrium, which is being sought in the future.
