St Bartholomew
Church of England
An unusual view of St Bartholomew.
St Bartholomew doesn't have a lake – this is flood water caused by the water table in the valley being very high after the constant rain we've had this year. The 'lake' is still there on the first day of Spring 2014.
Faced with a grey, shadowless, dull day, I opted for a 60 second exposure, with a 10 stop ND and grey grad filter, to try and inject some life, into the image and then converted it to B&W.
Taken at Cobbolds Point, Felixstowe, Suffolk, UK.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore.
Dream.
Discover.”

Blueberries is very healthy all the time :-)
Here we enter the macro world with a bokeh capture of an amarican blueberry in Norway.
Wikipedia:
Blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum) are perennial flowering plants with indigo-colored berries. They are classified in the section Cyanococcus within the genus Vaccinium. Vaccinium also includes cranberries, bilberries and grouseberries. Commercial "blueberries" are native to North America, and the "highbush" varieties were not introduced into Europe until the 1930s.
Blueberries are usually prostrate shrubs that can vary in size from 10 centimeters (3.9 in) to 4 meters (13 ft) in height. In the commercial production of blueberries, the smaller species are known as "lowbush blueberries" (synonymous with "wild"), while the larger species are known as "highbush blueberries".
The leaves can be either deciduous or evergreen, ovate to lanceolate, and 1–8 cm (0.39–3.15 in) long and 0.5–3.5 cm (0.20–1.38 in) broad. The flowers are bell-shaped, white, pale pink or red, sometimes tinged greenish. The fruit is a berry 5–16 millimeters (0.20–0.63 in) in diameter with a flared crown at the end; they are pale greenish at first, then reddish-purple, and finally dark purple when ripe. They are covered in a protective coating of powdery epicuticular wax, colloquially known as the "bloom". They have a sweet taste when mature, with variable acidity. Blueberry bushes typically bear fruit in the middle of the growing season: fruiting times are affected by local conditions such as altitude and latitude, so the peak of the crop, in the northern hemisphere, can vary from May to August.

Approx 300 exposures at 30 seconds each! Taken April 2013 using a Pentax Kx and 18-55mm kit lens. You've gotta love how the Pentax picks up the colours of the stars.

Old soldiers never die they only fade away.
But the young ones do not die, no they are cut down instead.
And someone pulled the trigger, gave the order, held the sword,
And some one wrote the advert in the paper that they read.
Thy will be done,
But you won't get your hands on my son.
You can wait till kingdom come.

This morning woke up to something unusual ice all over everything thing in the woods..It was like a dream really something that doesn't happen to often here in East Texas ..I bundled up and took out to see this beautiful ice..It was so beautiful with the ice all over the trees and just about everything you could see..I was cold but had a wonderful time looking at the beauty of it . Even though the plum tree blooms were covered in ice and the thought of no plums you could not help to be in the moment of this different place and beauty..I was all inspired and the cold was secondary as I explored this ice world

Somewhat unusual to see rain streaks so close to my house but the surface humidity was only 51 percent. This almost looks like virga but the rain was reaching the ground just beyond the house. 26 minutes later, a rain/hail downpour that lasted only 4 minutes produced around a quarter of an inch of precipitation and pea size hail that covered the ground: www.flickr.com/photos/79387036@N07/40947522454/in/photost....
