I will miss the White Wagtail all Autumn and Winter. It was the friendliest bird of all; I could easily name it the easiest bird to photograph (excluding Sparrows or Ravens).

The tutorial mention in the discussion above is a very simple way to create a vintage look.

A dark blue layer in exclusion mode is used, but you can also play around with cyan and magenta coloured exclusion layers.

Dandelions are the scourge of a lawn, but one cannot help but appreciate their beauty once they go to seed.

Caught this little male Black-chinned fluffing his feathers.

Our stop for lunch at La Gordina was amazing! They had feeders all along the windows and the hummingbirds put on quite a show.

Happy Fourth of July to my American friends.

この場所に秋明菊が咲くことが、一年の中の楽しみの一つなのですが、このあいだの秋は見に行かれませんでした。

この日久しぶりにそこに行くと、綿毛になった秋明菊がまだ残っているのが見つけられて、花ではないけれど、1年ぶりに会えた気がして、とても嬉しかったです。

phosphor bronze, dandelion clocks, LEDs, PCBs.

LED bulbs give off virtually no heat. Studio Drift used this property to combine

technology and nature poetically. Real dandelion clocks are fastened as filters

on the LED bulbs. A normal bulb would immediately scorch the fluff.

Here it produces a delicate play of light.

One morning as the photo assist dog and I were out for our walk, this hummingbird flew in front of us, around us and all around a tree. It seemed to be showing off the bit of fluff in her beak. I thought nesting season was mostly over here in the Bay area, but maybe she was lining a nest.

She's within the overhang of a tree, thus the muted greens in back. This was the only shot that came out that morning, as she kept moving in random directions, and the photo assist dog was doing her best to try to trip me up!
