This is a macro shot of a Barbie's feather scarf. In addition to the Canon EF 100mm macro lens, I added my old Raynox DCR-250 clip macro lens.

Clematis at end of summer. Classified as a noxious weed in some places after it escaped from cultivated gardens.

Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

Thank you, my dear friends, for all your comments and faves!

A few feathery flakes are scattered widely through the air, and hover downward with uncertain flight, now almost alighting on the earth, now whirled again aloft into remote regions of the atmosphere.

I took this photo while visiting Monique in Alberta...it only snowed for a very short time and didn't stay...but so pretty.

Japanese Red Maple

Macro shot of winter frost formations on the enclosed glass window of my balcony.

This is about as close as I have ever managed to get to a little wattle bird. I have always loved their fine streaky feathers.

Happy Feathery Friday!

Bees are happy to have this going all year. :-)

Wrightsville Beach, NC

Worked on myself, opened my eyes

You hate my friends, turns out they were right

It takes two to make it all go right

But with you, it's always my fault

And your short fuse, just like a time bomb

And I think you should take a second just to look at your reflection

Baby, maybe you're the problem

A Royal Spoonbill getting into the spirit of Feathery Friday!

White Ibis

This is a repost of Finchie from last year. Looking forward to seeing him and the other redpolls when we return to Nova Scotia for Christmas.

This piece of nature's artwork was the result of an overnight frost

Virgin's bower is more beautiful in seed than in flower! Also known as traveler's joy, these feathery plumes are often found trailing over fences and walls along the rural walkways.

I used my 100mm macro lens plus 36mm and 12mm extension tubes so I could get really close to the dandelion. The beauty of nature never disappoints when you slow down to examine the details. I know that dandelion images are overdone but I just can't help shoot them when I find them. What is a photo subject that you can't resist shooting?

The nesting royal spoonbills seemed unconcerned about the visiting great egret showing off its fabulous plumage.
