Red deer stag in Richmond Park at the start of the rutting season. Not much activity yet, but things should liven up over the coming weeks.
APPEARED ON flickr's "EXPLORE" 16 October 2013.
Windy conditions so I chose a high ISO to give a fast shutter speed. The result ws inevitably grainy but not distractingly so.
Camera: NIKON D300
Aperture: f/4.5
ISO: 2200
Exposure: 1/1500
Created from a full colour image in connection with a photo club 'mono' theme.

WOW, the 2nd day continually in explore, i was really surprised. In fact, I'm not really satisfied with this one. Lots of reasons, not familiar with this camera and lens, there's no sunlight and cloudy, blablabla. Just the emotional impulse when I receive the lens from the postman, and place it on the A7 then go out to shot in front of my office. But now, I have more courage to try more shot topics with different lens and camera. A7 is really a nice camera. And also, the Patacon is a good mate with this body.Let's give it a good try to let this old lens alive with our digital camera. Thanks for adding this to your favorite, again.

This is a double duty picture. I will enter it into Feathery Friday's bragging thread contest and I have been tagged a couple times recently. So here are 10 facts:
1- I am 50 and have no problem telling people my age!
2- I am married to a great guy for 27 yrs now; we have 2 adult sons, 21 and 20.
3- My little boy is Casper, a Bichon. He has been at my sister’s house 2 hours away for almost a week. I cant wait to see him tomorrow. I am having Casper withdrawals!
4-I am a registered nurse.
5-I lived in New Orleans for 12 yrs as a kid. We had 2 1/2 feet of water in our house from Hurricane Betsy-you don’t forget something like that!
6-I have been in 13 different countries in my life so far; since 13 is an unlucky number I need to go somewhere new! :-)
7-I have never seen the Grand Canyon..... there is so much here yet to see.
8-Unlike Sue (SavingMemories, one of the people who tagged me) I LOVE
chick-flicks!! I do not like real scary movies-they scare me too much!
9- I can’t spell,and have terrible grammar. I don’t like that about myself....as I said in #1, I am 50. At least there is google dictionary I can go to for help.
10-I love to laugh.

Rainbow Explorer was a spacecraft launched from Earth. It was piloted by Marlena Glenn; however, the space probe was caught up in a Cosmic Storm and was forced to land on Eternia.

One of last nights star trail shots over at Hadleigh Castle in Essex. I had several missed opportunities in the past week where I couldn't get out to take advantage of clear skys so last night I dropped my friend Russ a quick text to see if he fancied sitting in a damp field for a couple of hours and surprisingly he said "yes.....sounds like fun". We arrived at 10.30pm, greeted by cloudy skys :( Luckily these cleared away quite quickly. We were joined briefly by some yoofs who painted a bit of their own light into the image. I don't think they realised we were there as shortly after I'd fired up the floodlight they disappeared.
The light was provided by a remote area lighting product, borrowed from the office, which was a past design job for one of our clients.....and it was bloody awesome. It's LED based so it provided some nice blue light - it was switched on for a few seconds in one of the exposures to paint some light onto the brickwork.
With my previous attempts in the garden I hadn't encountered the problems of condensation on the lens. About halfway through the 50mins shot time the lens started to fog up, obscuring the castle. Luckily the trails still shone through (but gradually fade out). I think this actually adds quite a nice (accidental) effect.
I somehow managed to capture Russ motionless in one of the 30 sec exposures so I kept him in the composition......I think he adds something good to the image, silhouetted on the horizon. I had wanted to include the north star in the shot but I couldn't get round to the right spot - the hill that the castle stands on dropped away rapidly fairly close to where I was standing.
After a few hours in the cold & damp I had quite a few shots to work with so at 1.10am, several coffees down and a flat camera battery we headed for home.
Image comprised of 99 (max shots available on continuous shooting with Nikon cameras) 30 second exposures overlaid to show the spin of the earth reflected in the star trail movement. Bit of work in photoshop to adjust contrasts to enhance the trails and to overlay layers.
Tate, the new male red panda at NZ, was released from quarantine today and introduced to his intended mate, female Shama. She was kept back and off exhibit, so that Tate could freely explore and get comfortable in the outside exhibit area. While I was there, Tate would intermittently go in the back where he and Shama had mesh access. The keepers had also installed a heater...it was very cold today. Red pandas thrive in cold weather but it could be because Tate was inside during his 30 day quarantine and needs to get acclimated. The high today was only about 25 degrees!
When Tate did explore his new outside surroundings, he did his very best to furiously scent mark every rock, log, nook and cranny. He gives a special wiggle waggle to his scent marks too...he's very cute to watch!
