Yesterday I went for a long walk in the forest. The forest lake was nearly completly frozen. At the same time I was able to say goodbye to January. It was cold but sunny and I could enjoy the essence of winter. To be on the safe side I had my Helios lens with me, because I think that the lens underlines the barren beauty of this time of year very appropriately. I hope that February will present even more such beauties after I greeted him very early this morning :-)

 

Happy Monday everyone!

This is a montage (composite) of 7 various images. I love playing with Photoshop, and for me this is the way I learn!

 

The gentleman is from a photo in the Commons. Everything else is from a collection of my own photos that were not good enough as stand alones LOL.

 

Wish everyone have a great Christmas !

⭐️Thank you in Advance for your kind ‘Faves’ Visits and Comments they are so very much appreciated. 👍

 

I cannot always ‘Thank’ everyone individually, for their Visits and ‘Faves’ however, I will always try to respond and thank all those that leave a ‘Comment’. If I do not reply to your 'Comment', it is not because I am ignoring you, it's because I have not seen the 'Comment'.

 

Your 'Comments' do not always appear in 'Notifications' or Flickr mail, so, I am sorry for any delay in responding. Often your 'Comment' is only spotted 'On the Page' on the day, that I see it. (seen ONLY when replying to someone HAS 'Commented' on the image, and I see a notification)

Falling for you was my mistake.

This is an image that I couldn’t really resolve, in terms of what I wanted to do with it. The ‘Squares’ set is where it’s now bound, having got the finish to this image closer to how I see my style developing. It’s nearly 3 years since my trip to the Lofoten Islands, where this image was taken. I remember this night well, where we were treated to some great light, but the sunset we’d hoped for never materialised.

 

You’re more than welcome can check out the Square on my website at: www.stuartleche.photography/Squares

Experimental high key. Anna's hummingbird hovers at tall red bee balm. We've had so much rain this spring and summer that everything seems green with hues of yellow, hence high key.

 

Many thanks for looking.

February ♥ 2018

From this point on Great Bay, North Bruny, we can look north and see Mt Wellington (kunanyi) in the far distance. The waters of the D'Entrecasteaux Channel are mirror smooth and catch the reflected sky.

 

This body of water is sheltered from the main currents of the wilder Tasman Sea to the east, and made bark canoe crossings by the original Nuenonne people to Oyster Cove one of the most frequented ancient routes. I'll have more to say about this when I discuss Truganini and her people. They did indeed reflect Shakespeare's phrase concerning the fragility of life, "this glassy essence".

 

In between the distant horizon lies the southern shores of Missionary Bay. It was so named because the Christian missionary who tried to rescue the indigenous people from their awful fate, George Augustus Robinson (1791–1866) held a land grant here. Today you can see an oyster farm in the waters there.

A bit of fall splendor from my recent walk in Whipple Hill. I was pleasantly surprised by the occasional vibrant colors.

Best viewed in large,

 

Happy Wednesday all!
