....In Abersoch...on the beach. :-)
Quite like the new flickr processing App...only downside so far are the framing options...bad...and being able to sign your name on a shot...Room for improvement l'd say.

downside up
PRESS L YO!
I entered a photography competition!! The prize is a mk ii so I REALLY want to win. That would be nice, right about now. Anyway, the theme was umbrella, so I went with this. I'll let everyone know when the voting opens :D
to wear dark sunglasses and a wig. The wheelchair gives me away :-)

So... the downside of this weekend was having to clip Gritty. He’s an absolute terror about it, but I intend to keep him in heavy work throughout Fall and Winter. Despite robbing him of some hair, we got 3rd place in the first round of the Trick or Trot jumping series! I’m extremely happy with this placement, but we’ll have to keep practicing and see what the future holds. Everyone did great out there and we had a lot of fun! ♥
One downside of chasing the Macon Local in the shortest days of the year is many shots look like this: tree tunnels and due to the time of day the sun is oriented right down the rails. After meeting the northbound M-SHAR manifest at the siding in downtown Macon, the local is back up to track speed here just south of town.

View in lightbox, it looks better on black!
The only downside is the white corners when you view on black :\ I got tagged! It was so hard to think up 10 facts, but I managed ;) Here goes...
1. It is exactly one week until my birthday! Yay! :D
2. I have always wanted to be left handed
3. I get all my best ideas for things when I am trying to get to sleep but because I can never be bothered to write them down they're usually forgotten by the next day
4. I've watched Shrek 2 so many times I can watch it and talk along with the characters
5. I wish I had a musical talent, so I'm attempting to learn guitar. Again.
6. I see so many imperfections in my pictures that I feel make it look rubbish, when in actual fact nobody else notices them
7. Right now my nails are green with white polka dots on them
8. I wish my eyes were green, I think that's because green's my favourite colour
9. I need a blank wall in my house, my last blank wall is now has my name on it and is covered in writing. It's pretty cool though!
10. I'd love to move somewhere where it's sunny. I hate English weather, it's rained all day so far and it's the middle of August :(
THANK YOU to everyone who's commented, favourited and left tags! it means so much to me <3
It’s funny seeing this angle, the rally stage goes the opposite direction to the circuit race. Only downside is they close half the spectator areas so can’t get to my favoured spot.
One of the downsides to the Ricoh is the lack of a zoom. Still, I don’t need a zoom just the Blackbird to stay still.
The Thunderbird pilots are amazing! However, sometimes they don't know which side is up or which side is down!

The Fall color was on the downside.
St. James Farm Forest Preserve
In 1920, Chauncey and Marion McCormick purchased St. James Farm as a private retreat to accommodate their interests in horses and dairy farming. The McCormicks' son, Brooks, later transformed St. James Farm into a renowned equestrian facility. Brooks McCormick sold St. James Farm as a life estate to the Forest Preserve District in 2000. The Forest Preserve District officially took possession of the 607-acre property in 2007. Today, visitors can explore the forest preserve via scenic trails, tree-lined allees and guided quail-wagon tours or enjoy one of its inviting fishing or picnic spots. A series of permanent informational signs presents the history of the property, including its stables, barns, indoor and outdoor riding arenas, and artwork.
Reflected by the calm waters of the River Arun in Littlehampton, this is 'Penguin', patiently waiting in the early morning sun for the tide to return. Doubtless, wild adventures await once she can float clear of the the sand and set out once again on the short run down to the mouth of the river and out into the open sea.
Pack your lunchbox and get ready, it won't be long now...

Upside down vs. downside up:
If something is upside down, then that which was at the top is now at the bottom. Downside up is exactly the same, but rotated by 180 degrees. I'm sure that makes it clear.

Usual caveats etc.
Upside down, downside up
Reflected beauty in natures cup
That all eyes, see and look
At the mirrored page, of life's wild book
Where the water shines like glass
Reflecting the trees, plants and grass

That's upside down, downside up
The only downside of the 500pf is the longer min focus at 3metre though i would not trade an inch for any loss of quality of focusing speed. This a little cropped still fills the frame quite well at 3m though smaller medium size butterflies i may still use my 200-500 and a good reason to keep it. Plus the flexibly of a zoom can be handy :-)
The only major downside to the lenser V24 is transporting to and from the shoot!! I must find a way of attaching it to my bag.
Anyway its been a while since its last outing and the skys were proper clear so fancied throwing a bit of colour in there!!
(taken on one exposure, no additions after the exposure. I will adjust levels, saturation, white balance, brightness and some minor cropping if required.)

One of the downsides of late fall and winter is the much shorter days, and also the long shadows that go with the low sun. On the other hand, the sun turns quicker, affording the chance to get a little nose light on CMQ's Job 1 as they roll through the big curve at Long Pond. An improbable combination of a SD40-2F "Blue Barn" and a patched bluebonnet B23-7 lead the 30 car train west towards Jackman on this cloudless day. Supposedly the B23-7s won't be much longer on this railroad, but they still haven't gotten the replacement GP38-3s yet, so the B23-7s continue to do their part in keeping the railroad moving.

I've got the world's tiniest violin to really set the mood. Let's do this thing.
Downsides of having a cold:
1) You suddenly turn into a sloth, incapable of walking the massive distance between the couch and the toilet
2) No matter how many books you read, movies you watch, Youtube vids you sit through... Time just doesn't seem to pass.
3) Phlegm. It even sounds gross when you say it. Phlegm. Phleeeeggggggmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
4) You're hot, and then cold, and then hot, and then cold, and then hot and then cold... And then hot......... Then cold.......... Hot? Then cold. Hot again. Cold one more time. Hot one more time. Cold. Hot. Coldhotcoldhotcoldhot
5) Sniffles. Stupid annoying sniffles. *Sniff*
6) You have a coughing fit until you think you're about to die and can't possible cough one more time... Then you cough one more time :)
7) Screw this list, I'm going to bed.
Did I miss anything?
I have not yet figured out if those flowers sprouting from the water or hanging down from the sky...
Non ho ancora capito se quei fiori spuntavano dall'acqua oppure penzolavano giù dal cielo...
Peter Gabriel - Downside up
“It was a fun trip, you have to agree to that, Posh?” Asked Sky.
“I have had better and would have preferred not being involved to be honest.”
“Why is that Posh, after all there was nothing much to it really?” Asked Barnaby.
“That is so true, Barnaby, we went all that way only to come all that way back again.” Added Bertie.
“You can’t blame Ellie for that guys, how was she to know that the moon wasn’t there.” Asked Sky.
“She could have looked before we set off.” Answered Posh Bear.
“Be fair, Posh, we could all have looked before we set off, and you know how it comes and goes all the time. There always was a chance of it not being there.” Said Barnaby.
“I know, but did she have to return all that way in reverse? It wasn’t as if she didn’t have room to turn around in. Flying backwards and downside up does not do much for a bears’ digestion.”
“I agree with you there, Posh, I went right off my honey the following day.” Said Sky. “I only had two jars all day.”
Posh looked at his friend and shook her head in amazement.
“I just do not understand where you put two jars of honey in such a small bear.”
“I did offer some to Barnaby, Posh, but he wasn’t feeling too good either so he didn’t have any. I don’t like to see honey wasted so I thought I had better step up and finished it. You know what I really, really, wish?” said Sky.
“I can’t think, Sky, what is it you really wish?” Asked Bertie.
“Well, instead of honey being in tall jars with small openings, I wish it was in wider jars with very wide openings. It would make it so much easier to get every bit of the honey out and into my tummy.” Explained Sky. “In fact, I think I will ask the buzzy things to do just that when I next see them.”
“If it were big enough, Sky, we could sit in the jar and eat at the same time.” Said Barnaby looking excited at the idea.
“Changing the subject from jars of honey, what did Ellie say about this trip. I was going to ask when we landed but she was already sound asleep.” Asked Bertie.
“I think she was sad that the moon had hidden itself away, but she did ask me to order as many chocolate buttons as the store had when I next order the honey.” Said Sky.
“I dare say she is running short of fuel for the ellicopter then. At least without fuel she won’t be in the air flying about scaring everything else up there.” Said Bertie.
“Will you order some for her, Sky?” Asked Posh.
“Yes, Posh, I have done so and have bought as many as I could because she said that if I didn’t she would go herself and get some and we all know what happened last time she tried to do that.”
“Yes, going straight into the warehouse of the store and loading box after box of buttons in the ellicopter didn’t go down too well and she didn’t help by offering to pay for it with an old frisbee and then expecting change.”
“I asked her about that Sky, she explained that she only used the frisbee because she didn’t have a dustbin lid to pay for it with. I told her that you had to pay for things with a piece of plastic but I don’t think that helped much. She said next time she would have a plastic bottle and use that to pay for it with.” Said Bertie.
“Ellie has never quite got the hang of hooman payments schemes.” Said Posh Bear.
“Anyway, it is ordered and is what she asked for, but when the huge lorries arrive, I have no idea where she is going to store all the boxes.
“Ho-hum…” Said Barnaby smiling.

Seemed to work nicely with a square crop, gets rid of all of the stuff at the sides that frankly isn't as attractive!

A sad shot this time :-(
This turtle was under a rock shelf hiding away. I had my 100mm macro lens on so could get a reasonably close shot with the strobe on but subsequent viewing at 1:1 showed that there is fishing line around its neck causing the bleeding there. Some divers will try to help turtles remove problems like this but I think that this would be too difficult.

@Logan_heiman and I went to an abandoned factory after a rained out session with Crandall. Neither of us properly rode this glass riddled DEAH-I-Y spot, so it was a wild scene. DIY is tight. A flat and a fix later I shot @logan_heiman downside footjam whipping this thing with my Canon 6D with an old Nikkor 50mm 1.4 @f/2.8 1/400th iso 1600.
