An overnight snow has dusted the slopes of Green Mountain (r, above the iconic Flatirons rock formations) and Bear Peak (l), dropping only rain in the lower elevations. A few native flowers have appeared and buds are breaking on some shrubs and trees, though more snow will fall before full-spring arrives in a few weeks.
This was Brian on our spring photoshoot. He is so dedicated to his muse and follows her wherever she leads. Me? I just stood on the edge and shot Brian: so to speak. I think I got the better photo. :)
We're off the cottage country to hang out and see the colours. Will Brian and I go on a photoshoot, do you think?
Anyway, I won't be posting for a week or two although I often sneak in one or two, but whether I manage to grab some bandwidth [to post] or not, commenting will be out of the question.
Hopefully, I will come back with some fine photos of autumn colour, but whether it will be a good display and good weather this year remains to be seen.

The Black Barn in Dorset during springtime. The light working well here bringing out the lines and shadows in the landscape. Passing through on several occasions and this particular afternoon the sun going in and out of the clouds working nicely and some great interest in the clouds also.
No filters used just point and shoot using the full length of the 400mm lens and using the farmers gate as to steady myself.
A narrow road running through woods in upstate New York. The Hasselblad Stellar is actually a 1" sensor point-and-shoot camera, not a full-fledged Hasselblad. It is basically a Sony RX100 with a fancy grip and Hasselblad branding on it. A very good pocket camera. (explored)
The lagoons surrounding the Chicago Botanic Garden'is Japanese garden are still frozen. I'm sure with a few warm days will melt the ice still remaining.
A mild HSS photo. I edited the bg layer to be b&w but left the whatsit coloured. I don't know what the whatsit is called. I want to call it a latch, but that's not really what it is.

At that time, as on the surface of all living things only begins to come alive and Wake from its winter sleep, in the sky, already flying a fleet of caravans birds. With shout and song they sweep over our heads, eager to get to their nesting, capturing with great plots. Because summer is so short, and they have so much to do.
I look forward to new meetings!
The Gables is an 18th Century cottage, which is Grade II listed, on the outskirts of the village of Potterne, near Devizes in Wiltshire. Gables Cottage, which forms the right section of the building, may be even older.
Mono seemed fitting on a cloudy day. This was taken when they first blossomed, but they are almost at the end of their run now - HMBT!
