I was able to get out yesterday after work and head out to the ponds. The light was out all day, but with the looming consecutive days of rain approaching, the clouds took over upon my arrival. I was hoping to get that magical light and some more Teal shots. The sun played hide and seek behind the ugly gray clouds that seemed to widen and cover most of the sky. I waited and waited for the sun to break through the dark sky and at last it came through! I crawled my way onto the mudflat cautiously not to frighten the only Pintail duck pair feeding in front of me. I had only 15 minutes of light left and was so so fortunate!! It paid off in the end. I had negative thoughts beforehand thinking not only was I muddy, but I haven't got any shots to show for my patience. I was very happy with these frame fillers and grateful for that killer light! sidenote: some reason Flickr is not letting me group names together for thanking on my photos. I tried small bunches of names and it worked twice, but it continues to not work. Very frustrating!!
Fiery Frame Filler - This particular Allen's Hummingbird was very comfortable and perched very close nearby. I just cropped this image off the edges and thought the details + unique perch made an interesting scene.

They're back!!!!!! It's that time of year when the Osprey return to northern Colorado!!! Like clockwork, the lifelong mated pairs return to there nests, mostly manmade platforms high off of the ground. They spend the winters in south America apart from one another and then miraculously come back and meet at their nests around the same time each year. Nature is wonderful!!!
These are those "Glass Gems" you put in the bottom of a flower vase to help hold the stems in place. I had just cleaned them and I was going to put them away, but the sunshine caught them, making me decided to photograph them.
So here they are, humble polished pieces of glass. Focus stacked at the front , but I liked the bokeh so much I let the back part stay unfocused.
So, for the group 100x, where I am to take 100 photos in a category of my choice (which is Focus Stacking, obviously!), I submit this image.
Also for Slider's Sunday, since it has been processed beyond actual reality. HSS!
It's been quite a while. When calibrating with roll film, there are always two frames left that need to be filled.

When the Western Maryland’s dieselized, it purchased twenty GP9’s as part of the roster. As the WM retired F7’s, RS3’s, and switchers in the mid-1970’s, parent Chessie System moved twenty five Chesapeake & Ohio GP9’s to the WM roster. Many roamed the system in patched C&O paint, but some received full Chessie paint, as 5984 seen here riding the turntable at Connellsville, Pennsylvania.
Buckminster Fuller became famous for his geodesic domes in the 50s and the Missouri Botanical Garden built the first conservatory using the technique in 1960, filling it with plants from tropical rainforests.

It was sold at the nursery as a hanging basket filler for 79¢. Look what it turned into! A beautiful red and blue fuschia!
"The sage does not hoard.
The more he helps others,
the more he benefits himself,
The more he gives to others,
the more he gets himself.
The Way of Heaven does one good but never does one harm.
The Way of the sage is to act but not to compete."
~ Lao Tzu ~
"The popular mythology of creative genius depends on beloved stereotypes of the artist in youth and old age:
the misunderstood upstart who forces us to see the world afresh; and the revered sage who shows us depths of insight
attainable only through a lifetime of hard-won experience."
~ Martin Filler ~
"Human nature and deliberate effort must unite,
and then the reputation of the sage
and the work of unifying all under Heaven
are thereupon brought to completion."

I think that probably nobody has missed my posts, but I still think I owe an explination for the lack of posts. It has been pretty hectic before christmas with excams etc. But within the new year and onwards you will hopefully get a lot of posts!

Also inspiration for the legs of the fig comes from Halls of Montezuma
